Message text: Error in workflow Customizing for document parking (tranasction OBWE)



What causes this issue?

No subworkflow (release approval procedure) could be determined for the
amount release.
Check the workflow Customizing for document parking, in particular, the
settings for transaction <DS:TRAN.OBWE>OBWE.</>

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

This message is output from the method SUBWF1DETERMINE of the BOR
object FIPP (see transaction <DS:TRAN.SWO1>SWO1</>).


System Response

The workflow was started, but the system could not create an executable
dialog work item for the amount release for the document. You cannot
post the document directly, it has to be released in the workflow. In
the sample workflows WS10000051 and WS00400032, the amount release must
be executed; the clerks are determined in role 139. Role 139 is based
on the function module PRELIMINARY_POSTING_ACTOR1_DET.


How to fix this error?

Change the Customizing using transaction <DS:TRAN.OBWE>OBWE
</>.
In order to determine which entry is missing or defective, you have to
know the workflow variant and the release approval path for the
document. The workflow variant results from the company code assignment
(transaction <DS:TRAN.OBWJ>OBWJ</>). The release approval path is
determined when you enter the document and saved in the document
header. You can then no longer change it for a specific document. SAP
provides the following example workflows for the release approval
procedure: WS10000052, WS10000053, and WS10000054.


Procedure for System Administrators

Restart the incorrect workflow (transaction <DS:TRAN.SWPR>SWPR
</>) once you have maintained the Customizing.
