Building a Payment Blog Workflow for Vendor Payments Part 2
Introduction:
https://blogs.sap.com/2019/01/28/building-a-payment-block-workflow-process-for-vendor-payments/
In continuation to the earlier blog now the second part is to design workflow for the Business object BUS2081 POSTED Event.
Goto transaction SWDD and follow below steps to design a workflow:
- Create a New workflow and set Posted event of BUS2081 as starting event of workflow
2. Create a step to check the posted document is blocked for payment or not.
3. if invoice is booked with a payment block then set the approval hierarchy level using container operation and fetch for workflow approvers:
4. Create a sequential approval block so that each approver in the list approves the invoice.
Create an activity to display invoice and a decision box to approve or reject invoice.
Create another decision step after exiting block for final approval authority to approve the invoice.
if a user approves the decision then he has to remove the Payment block from Transaction MRBR and the workflow step will end after removing the payment block.
Conclusion:
Whole workflow is now set to trigger once an invoice is posted in system with a payment block flag and after all approvals the invoice will be ready to be cleared from f-53 transaction.
