Validation of selected substitutes ?

[Dart, Jocelyn]

Sue, 

Yes we have asked for BADIs but no official word yet on when or whether
they will be introduced.   However if you are using the UWL with SRM
(which you are I seem to remember?)
- a mod in the relevant SAP_WAPI_SUBSTITUTE_CREATE function module will
do it.  I've done this before at another project ... this is where we've
asked for the user-exit to be placed.   You'll still have to put
together your own logic for deciding what is an attribute match.

Subject: Validation of selected substitutes ?

SRM 5.0,
Here's a weird one (what else do I ever send?)

Certain approvers have strange and amazing powers, and it's important
that they not select 
substitutes who do not also possess these same powers.  Let's say these
strange and amazing powers 
are manifest in SAP Authorizations, and SAP Org Objects, and SAP
Qualifications (HR).
We are resolving all our workflow tasks to the person level (positional
substitution does not apply).

Is there anyway to check when a user picks a substitute, that the
substitute has the same attributes 
as the picker ?  (no really, please, don't laugh)

Thanks!
