How to Redetermine Approvers

Step 1

Determine request instance ID. Navigate to form instance and select Instance ID (GUID) from the URL, or search instances in transaction /n/IQX/FAB_DATA.

Step 2

Go to transaction /n/IQX/FAB_DATA to redetermine approvers. If you add an approver and the request is already in process, you can redetermine approvers at that step by accessing the transaction /n/IQX/FAB_DATA.

Step 3

Specify the relevant form name and select Execute

Step 4

Select the Form in the Form Headers section. In the Approvers tab, select the Redetermine button.

Step 5

Specify the Starting Position and Action

Step 6

Select Go and the new approver is added on the Approvers list.

Step 1

Create a variant for program /IQX/FAB_UPDATE_SUBSTITUTES. Specify the Form Name and tick Redetermine Approvers.

Step 2

Create a job in transaction SM36 for the program using the variant from the previous step. Each time the job runs it will retrieve all the instances where an approver is defined and it will redetermine the approvers.
