ECC 6.0 - Cancel Approved Leave Request

[Cristiana D'Agosto]

Hi all,

we are in ECC 6.0 and the requirement is that when an employee cancel an 
approved leave request an email is to be sent to his/her manager i.e. no 
approval is required.

I linked my workflow to the relevant leave type so there are different 
workflows to be triggered when an employee submits a new leave request and 
when an employee deletes an approved leave request.

I am sure someone out there must have done something similar!

A few questions:

1 - I believe that if the leave request has been already posted, my 
workflow will need to delete the relevant Infotype 2001. Is that ok to use 
BAPI_ABSENCE_DELETE to achieve that? 

2 - If the Infotype 2001 has to be deleted, what should happen to the 
relevant entry in the table PTREQ_HEADER? Should I change the status of 
the relevant entry to be what? WITHDRAWN? I noticed that the PTREQ_HEADER 
has now the status SENT (because a workflow was triggered).

3 - I also noticed that in PTARQ my deleted entry has operation set to DEL 
- does that mean that if I set the status of the entry to WITHDRAWN (or 
something else), when i hit the Post Documents the infotype 2001 will be 
automatically deleted??

Thanks in advance for any hints/tips/advice you can provide!

Cheers




Cristiana
