Send back in Workflow Approval

[abhijeetgc]

Hello,

Are these features present in SAP Build Process Automation from a workflow perspective:

1. Allow to save as draft and submit. On submit workflow will trigger.

2. Approvers can ‘send back’ the requests with their remarks - not just to the previous approver but to any approver in the workflow.

3. Approvers can send for additional approver to get expert consent before their approval

4. Reminders to task users whose tasks are pending for more than a period like 2,4,6 days with escalations

5. Admin can modify the workflow on ad-hoc basis for any user approval skip at any level/forced cancellation of the workflow

6. My Request status report with relevant search parameters and date range and download as excel

I'm sure a product manager will come soon to answer, but in the meantime, here are answers for some of the questions:

1. I am not aware of this feature for form-triggered workflows. For API triggered workflows, the app that triggers the workflow can implement.

2. See this thread for information and one kind of implementation: https://answers.sap.com/questions/13915980/build-process-automation-rejection-of-a-form.html

3. You can easily enough add to an approval form a checkbox and an input box to add the email address of the approver, and the process could have a condition to add an approval.

4. Reminders: See this thread for more information: https://answers.sap.com/questions/13918584/reminder-function-for-sap-build-workflow.html

5. I'm not aware of modifying a deployed workflow, but an admin can certainly cancel a workflow

6. Not sure what you are referring to here.
