How do I define the condition for an approval rule?
Symptom

I am not finding the correct condition to my approval process.


Resolution
Use the condition builder in the approval rule editor to define the condition for an approval rule.

To define a condition:

  1. With the approval process open in edit mode, click the rule for which you want to build a condition.
  2. In the Condition section, the condition starts with an All Are True sub-condition. If you want to change the statement to Any Are True or None Is True, click the triangle button in the sub-condition, and under Change To in the menu, choose the type of sub-condition to use.


    Note: The condition must start with an All/Any/None sub-condition, even if you plan to add only one other condition component. For information about All/Any/None sub-conditions and how they are evaluated, see "Conditions and Actions in the Approval Process Editor" on the SAP Help Portal.
  3. To add a condition component to the sub-condition, click the triangle button in the sub-condition, and choose a type of condition component to add.

    • Field Match lets you choose a field to evaluate, an operator, and a value or field on which to match.
    • Predefined Condition provides a list of predefined conditions from which to choose. Choose the condition to add, specifying additional information if prompted.
    • Subcondition adds another All/Any/None subcondition.
  4. Continue adding conditions as necessary. Conditions are saved automatically as you add them.
