Jul 30, 2010 at 07:48 AM | 76 Views

Dear all,

I would like to create workflow to approve Material Master creation as below:

When Material is created -> Check & Approval (Yes) -> Material is active

-> Check & Approval (No) -> Material is inactive

How can I do that?

Could you pls help me to solve this?

Thanks,

• Hi, Before designing the workflow, you need to find what is the business object and what is the event which gets triggered when material master is created… you can do that using event trace….
• 1. SWELS – switch on trace
• 2. Create material
• 3. SWEL – check trace to find which event is fired
• This will give you business object name..Now start building workflow using SWDD… Go thru basic steps for designing workflow…

  • Former Member  Former MemberJul 30, 2010 at 12:47 PMI think you have to use Decision step in your workflow.
  • Probably you have to use Business Object BUS1001 or BUS1001006

• In SAP it is an omission that you create master data and only then start appr. process. it would be greatfull if you have an prototype object and if it is approved you create material master data.Look at DMS:1. Create doc type2. give material master record attributes3. send for approving4. if it is approved start transaction that create material 4.1 if it is not approved – dont start transaction
