 Checking and Approving Write-Offs

Use

You can hold write-offs in a status that has to be confirmed. A workflow is triggered for the confirmation; the last step in the workflow is an approval or rejection.

Features

For each write-off, an installation-specific function module is processed in event 5512. It checks whether the write-off has to be confirmed and released by other clerks in a workflow. If a check is required, the module returns the number of checks required. You can also issue a check reason and additional parameters for role determination.

If the write-off is accepted, the document is written off and the workflow completed.

If the write-off is rejected, the workflow is stopped.

SAP delivers the workflow sample WS21000102 FICA_WRTOFF for write-offs. The role 21000067 is used for the role resolution.

Activities

Define an installation-specific function module for event 5512.

If you want the information for line items to be output in open item processing or in the account balance display for approval, you can define installation-specific modules for events 0105 and 1205. For example, you can use function modules FKK_WF_TEXT_1205 and FKK_WF_TEXT_0105.

To execute active application-specific standard modules, call these directly from the customer-specific module.
