SRM7 and ACF

[Keohan, Susan - 1140 - MITLL]

Whoops and Oh, by the way, when I start the configurator for
'SAPSRM/WDCC_FPM_OIF_SC_PROFNL', I can definitely SEE the Approve and Reject
buttons - so where are they being disappeared?

Hello Wuggers,

 

I am on a technical upgrade only from SRM5 (ITS based) to SRM7 (UWL) and we
are running our old (application controlled) workflows.  All the background
tasks work fine.

The UWL is a challenge, but not what brings me to posting today.

It's the danged dialog tasks.

 

I thought I would just keep it simple and use the SAP-delivered tasks for SC
Approval and so on.  The task (TS10008126, in this case) calls FORM
HTMLPROCESS.  That, in turn calls WDA/FPM - and of course, this is new
territory for me.  Please see the screen shot below for the WDA/FPM
technical information.

 



 

The problem is - there are no 'Approve' or 'Reject' buttons when you drill
into the workitem!  I know that once you drill into the workitem, you've
left the control of the UWL and the corresponding XML.  I have been through
blogs and tutorials (is it ridiculous, or just plain wrong that I need to
get an access key in order to follow through on a tutorial? That's a
question for another day).

 

I have looked in the IMG, and the only place I can see where I could
configure what actions are available is Cross Application Basic Settings>
Extensions and Field Control > Control Actions > Display Standard Metadata
Tables for Actions on Header Level and Configure Control of Actions on
Header Level.  The 'Display Standard Metadata.' is a very busy screen with
no existing entries for BUS2121 APPROVED or APPROVAL_IND (so I've left it
alone).  The section 'Configure Control of Actions on Header Level' seems
promising, but even when I have created entries for BUS2121, it seems to
have no impact on the WebDynPro app.

 

I feel as though I am overlooking something quite obvious - I mean,
shouldn't an SAP Approval Task offer 'Approve' and 'Reject' right out of the
box?  And it doesn't seem to matter which task I use - I was working with
TS14508044 for a while but switched back to the older task.  

 

I would definitely appreciate it if anyone can help me get a clue.


Thanks!
Sue
