In MSMP, Access Controls 10.0 and 10.1 provides extremely flexible and powerful tool to configure workflows. In this document we will see how to create BRF+ (NOT line item by line item) msmp initiator rule by taking example of real business case in context of Access Request.
First we need to understand the difference between MSMP BRF+ rule and BRF+ flat rule ( lineitem by lineitem ) before we can create MSMP BRF+ rule. Here are key differences between BRF+ rule and BRF flat rule
MSMP BRF+ rule provides great flexibility and almost all the scenarios can be achieved by this which are not possible by using BRF+ flat rule. This document provides step by step guide for creating BRF+ rule to achieve complex business scenario
Execute Transaction GRFNMW_DEV_RULES Fill generation criteria (Process ID, Rule type, etc.) Specify Generation options Generate rule shell (Execute button)
Open transaction BRF+ To locate the generated function user menu, Workbench -> Open Object and specify object ID from previous step
In BRF+ function, change the mode to Event Mode and activate the function
Since Function mode has been changed to Event mode, the result data object has changed automatically, so it has to be reset manually In Signature tab of BRF Function, change the result data object to GRFN_MW_T_ROUTING
Click on Create Ruleset button Provide any name for your ruleset and click on Create And Navigate To Object
4.2. Create Rule within Ruleset - Create Expression of Type Table Operation
Click on Insert Rule button to create new rule From within rule, click on Add -> Process Expression -> Create to create a new expression Create expression of type Table Operation and provide suitable name and description
Check for any role in request with critical level of High Use table from context that has all the line items present in the request Additional conditions can be added as per requirement
4.3. Create another New Rule in Ruleset - Create Expression of Type Loop
Go back to your rule set and create a second rule in the rule set From within rule, create a new Loop expression that will loop on all line items of the request
Select Processing Mode and Loop Mode Loop at GRAC_T_REQUEST_RULE_LINE, which is a table containing all roles/systems of the request
4.3.1. Create Rule within Loop Expression - Create Expression of Type Decision Table
Create a new rule within loop Create a new expression from this rule. This expression will be of type decision table.
Provide details and add columns Select result data object and result columns Result data object GRFN_MW_S_ROUTING is standard result for routing and initiator rules
o o
Add Condition columns from the Table operation expression created in earlier steps Along with this, additional columns from the context can be added into decision table
Add Condition to decision table; here, it is checking the result of expression TABLE_OPERATION. The result will be true if request contains any role with criticality level of High. So if any of the roles were of High criticality level, then complete request would go to CRITICAL_PATH* Activate decision table and go back to Loop
In Loop expression, add a new rule to append the result of decision table to the BRF result Activate Loop expression and go back to ruleset
In Ruleset, make sure that the first rule in sequence is Table operation expression Use Up and Down arrows to change the sequence and activate ruleset
