Functions for Requests (Enhanced)

Use

Standing Requests: Generate Posting Documents

It is now also possible to generate standing request master documents from posting documents in the test run. This allows you to first call the program for test purposes. When you do this, the program does not save any posting documents so you can correct any errors that occur. If you then run the program without setting the Test Run indicator, the posting documents are actually saved to the database.

The selection options for standing request master documents have also been enhanced. You can now also select standing request master documents using the request number.

Workflow for Requests

Standing Requests

Starting from this release, you can also use SAP Business Workflow to map out the approval process for requests. The workflow object for requests 'FMPSO' has been added for this purpose.

Individual Document Category for Each Request Type

You can now control the workflow differently for requests from different document categories. For this purpose, an individual document category has been introduced for each request type and for standing requests. For example, this makes it possible to enter an upper limit amount for each individual request type.

Changes to the Workflow Indicator

Previously, you could control the approval process for requests using SAP Business Workflow. You must make the settings for this in the Customizing of Funds Management Government in the Workflow area.

Starting with release 4.62, you can also flag requests as relevant for workflow independently from these Customizing settings. You can, for example process every 1000th request using the SAP Business Workflow. SAP provides process 00107030 and reference function module SAMPLE_PROCESS_00107030 to allow you to change the workflow indicator. This function is based on business transaction event (BTE) techniques. For more information on this topic, see BTE.

Temporary Waivers/Remissions: Mass Processing Now Permitted

SAP now also offers mass processing for temporary waivers and remissions. However, in contrast to mass deferral and mass remission, documents are not summarized, instead documents are always processed individually with invoice reference.

If, during mass processing, documents with different foreign currencies are to be processed together, data may be saved inconsistently to the database. As a result, in such cases, the program only executes the temporary waiver/remission in the local currency.

Entering Requests Using a Reference

If, when using a reference to enter a request, you want the program to copy the posting date and document date from the reference document, you can flag the Propose Posting Date and Document Date field.

Using More than One Tax Code in an FI Document

Starting with this release, you can use a user-defined tax code for each G/L account item within a single FI document of a request. You can always do this if you have entered different G/L account items for an FI document. If you want to enter the tax amount for each G/L account item, call the Tax Amounts function from the G/L account items.

When doing this, you should take note that when you are entering more than one tax code in a single FI document, you should not enter any tax information in the subledger account items nor should you enter a tax amount or a tax code in the subledger account data. If your system is configured in such a way that the Tax Code field is a required entry field in the request entry screen, you can fill it with the value **. This will then allow you to enter different tax codes in the G/L account items.

Data transfer program RFBIBLK0 has also been enhanced to include this function. To provide this program with the correct data, tax information must be entered in table BBTAX.

Processing Options for Requests

Starting from this release, you can specify that requests you enter in a foreign currency are always translated using the exchange defined in the system. This means that it will no longer be possible to enter an amount in the local currency that differs from the one that the system has generated automatically.

To use this function, after calling the request transaction, choose Settings -> Processing Options and flag the Amount fields only for document currency field. If you want to predefine this field, use SET/GET parameter FOP. The 4th character of the SET/GET parameter must also be changed. (Example: ___X______)

Converting Header Data Information

The listing of header data information in requests has also been changed in this release. The overall amount of the request is now also displayed in a foreign currency.

Cash Discount Base for Requests

Starting with this release, the program deletes the Cash Discount Base field as soon as you change the amount and save a request. If you do not enter the cash discount base manually, the program automatically determines this amount. This ensures that the correct cash discount base is always saved in the document. Therefore, you no longer have to change or manually delete the cash discount base when you change the amount of a request as was previously the case.

Enhancement EXIT_SAPLF0KE_002

Starting with this release, the processing status is passed on to this function module using importing parameter I_OKCODE.
