Invoice Approval in workflow not working

[anuzgoel]

Hi,

I have processed a number of transactions using T.Code - FB60, FV60, ZOAWD & opt/vim_7ax3. Where as the document does get created in SAP and I can also see it on the portal.

After manually indexing the invoice, it is parked in SBWP, however when I execute the respective item it goes straight for posting. It does not go to the approver for approval.

While posting Invoices I do not see any place on any of the screen to assign the invoice for approval.

When I click on Bypass/Simulate Business Rule the status of step id 190 - Non PO Approval required is `RED`. when I click on status log it says ``Exception 'Non PO Approval Required' occured.``

I have already checked the configuration under LiveLink VIM Configuration - Document Processing - Document Type Configuration - Maintain Document Type.

Everything is fine there and bypass function is not activated for non-po approval

Can anybody please suggest me what seems to be the issue and how to resolve it.

Also the document status on the portal is always ``Error in starting approval workflow``.

Thanks

Hi Anuj

Have you tried assigning VIM roles to Cost Centers? Whenever a Cost Center is used in the invoice, the document would be forwarded to the Cost Center approver for approval then.
