PCR workflows

[Ananth]

Hi All,

I need information about implementing PCR workflows. We are on ECC5.0
version. In our scenario, we have 2 step approval. Here the user
submits form on the intranet. This needs to be routed to his/her
manager, there is a standard workflow template WS50000031, which can
be copied and changed.

In the standard template, a sub-workflow (WS50000033) is called, in
which manager will get the request with the help of the webservice and
accordingly approve or reject. I would like to know, this sub-workflow
has the following importing parameter : Approver1_roleid, which has a
initial value of 50000132 .

In our scenario, we need to use our own rule for routing to the
manager, how can this subworkflow be passed with the custom rule
instead of 50000132. Is there anything that needs to be changed other
than passing a custom rule instead of the default rule given in the
customized copied version of the standard workflow.

After this manager approves, then the 2nd level approval will be
started, where the standard workflow passes the approver2_roleid =
50000133 to the subworkflow 50000033. In our scenario, we want to use
a custom rule with responsibilty for routing to the HR person.

Can someone, please let me know what needs to be done to incorporate
this in our scenario.

Thanks in advance,
Ananth
