General Ledger / Journal posting Approval Workflow

Mon Jan 7 15:06:09 EST 2013

John,  I never used the SAP wf but I guess if you copy it to your own you can change the binding no problem.  On the triggering of the event you just need to set the container element with the approver you determined in your logic.

swc_clear_container container_instanz.
swc_set_element container_instanz 'APPROVER' 'USMSCHUMACHER'.

call function 'SWE_EVENT_CREATE_FOR_UPD_TASK'
          exporting
            event           = 'CREATED'
            objtype         = 'FIPP'
            objkey          = wf_objkey
          tables
            event_container = container_instanz.

Hi

Thanks for the info, very useful.

One further question, I am looking at the standard workflow WS1000051, but at triggering it via a user exit because of the need to select an approver from a list, could I pass/bind the chosen approver to the standard FIPP CREATED event, ignoring the standard SPRO FI config, where approvers are identified?

Kind Regards

John,

You can use the BTE 1140 (tcode BF34) to restrict the post button when the sy-tcode = ‘FB50’ and BTE 2213 to issue the event to trigger the workflow.
  if …  or sy-tcode = 'FB50' or sy-tcode = 'FB50L'.
   t_exctab-okcod = 'BU'.         "Post Button ok code to exclude
   append t_exctab.
 endif.
SAP has a mechanism for releasing (SPRO Assing Release Approval Procedure for Parking Documents) but we didn’t use it …  you set some configuration by company code but it wasn’t restricting the FB50 or FB50L transactions.  It did turn off post button for FV50 for the configured company code.

Hi All

Best wishes for 2013.

I have a new requirement to start the year with, specifically to look at an Approval workflow for General Ledger postings.

Not my area, just wondered if anyone has any useful advice / collateral to get started. I believe it's transaction FB50, but I need to ensure the finance document posted is initially parked and the workflow initiated to seek approval, which would then remove the parked status.

Kind Regards
