CATS workflow approval in ECC 6.0

Hello All,

I am hoping you can help.  We are migrating our SAP 4.7 Time approval
workflow to ECC 6.0.  I have configured CATS to use new standard Task
TS3100000007 (approval by Supervisor).  My testing is successful up to
the point of processing the time approval workitem.  

Here is the problem.  As delivered in ECC 6.0 I don't see how to control
the time approval program used by the standard workflow.  In version
4.7, transaction CATSWF was delivered to start with variant "WORKFLOW".
Using the "WORKFLOW" variant, with report RCATSB01, one can choose
approval program 'A' to use report rcats_approve_activities
(CATS_APRR_LITE) for time approval.  

In version ECC 6.0, transaction CATSWF not longer contains a start with
variant.  Withhout use of the variant, I cannot see how approval program
'A' can be configured.  I created an OSS message last week and received
a call from SAP.  I was told that our ECC 6.0 system looks like their
ECC 6.0 system.  They don't recognize this as a problem.  

Can anyone shed any light on this issue?  Thanks!!
