Business Workflow: 2-level approval with e-mail to approver with certain order value

[former_member585463]

Hello all,

at the moment I play with workflows. So I'm very new in this topic like in all other topics in SAP 🙂

I could already set a workflow that I get an e-mail to a specific e-mail-address, when I create a purchase order. Thats really good I guess.

My release strategy is 2 level. That means that over a limit from e.g. 100000, a second approver has to approves the purchase order. My goal is now that only the second approver gets a e-mail for a approval. I tried to bind a condition into my workflow that says: true if release code is X or Y and wrong if unequal X or Y and wanted only send a e-mail when the release code is X or Y. But this dont work, because I guess the system dont know the codes for the condition.

Does someone has a idea how I can reach my goal?

Thankful for an answer.

Best regards,

Marvin

Hello Marvin !

Copy the standard workflow WS20000075, include the condition step and try.

On the first look and quick tests, I guess it works. That means I get only a e-mail when my PO has 2-level strategy after the first one is approved.

Thank you.

Hello Marvin !

If there are one or more unique release codes strictly meant only for second approval, you can maintain a condition step type to check the current release code match with the release codes meant for second level approval when purchase order goes for second level approval.

If condition passes, send mail.

Hello Suresh,

thank you for your answer.

I tried to use a condition that says if the releasecode is 03 or 06, send a email.

Im not sure, if my start event is the right one and whether it get triggerd, when I approved the first 1 level approval

Best regards,

Marvin
