Price variance workflow for blocked invoices in MM purchasing

[Former Member]

Hi Gurus,

We are implementing price variance workflow for blocked invoices. We built a custom workflow to

take care of the routing requirement of the customer.

We also did necessary customization defining the tolerance limits for price variance. Before testing the workflow wanted to check events in SWEL and its is found that system doesn't raise any event for price/ quantity block and hence the workflow is not triggered at all.

Event trace active flag is set in SWELS. I am not able to figure out what we are missing.The invoice gets created correctly with the price/quantity blocks and blocked invoices are available when we see in Tcode 'MRBR'.

Any suggestion will be highly appreciated.

Hello,

Are other events showing up in SWEL? If so, then the event trace is on, and the problem is that your event is being raised.

Which BO and which event is this? You may have to put code in a user exit to raise the event for price/quantity block.

Yes, I am seeing other events being triggered in SWEL.

The BOR is BUS2081 and the event that should be raised is 'BlockedPrice'. Since this is a stadard Business Object and standard event I am sure no coding is reqd in user exit.

Thanks.

Hello,

Sorry - in my post above it should read:

"the problem is that your event is NOT being raised"

If you raise BUS2081.BlockedPrice using SWUE, does it show up in SWEL?

Hi

I just tested raising the events thru SWUE and that doesn't show up either.

But I have seen workflows getting triggered when events are raised thru SWUE.

What could be the reason the only these events are not seen in SWEL while other events are seen.

Thanks for the help.

Hello,

So you are absolutely sure the event trace is on. If you try SWUE with some other event, you see the entry in SWEL, dated a few minutes ago, correct?

When you try SWUE with BUS2081.BlockedPrice does it give any message?

Does SWUE work with any other BUS2081 event?
