Symptom
- Unable to find or assign recipients in 'Manage Situation Types' as no options are showing.
- Issue occurs while configuring 'Situation Handling' for 'Documented Credit Decisions' using template FIN_DCD_APPROVAL.
- Details were maintained in 'Manage Teams and Responsibilities', but recipients are not visible in 'Manage Situation Types'.
Environment
SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition
Reproducing the Issue
- Open the Manage Situation Types app.
- Search for the standard situation template type FIN_DCD_APPROVAL – Approve Documented Credit Decisions.
- Copy the standard situation template type to create a custom situation template type.
- Open the newly created custom situation template type.
- Navigate to the Recipients section.
- Try to search or assign the required approvers as recipients.
- Observe that the expected approvers are not available in the recipient selection list.
Cause
- Recipients section has predefined 'Responsibility Rules' settings for determining who is responsible for a situation instance
- For the 'FIN_DCD_APPROVAL' template, recipients are determined via responsibility rules configured in the 'Manage Credit Management Rules' app (Documented Credit Decision Approver, UKM_DCD).
Resolution
The recipients for this template are configured in the 'Manage Credit Management Rules' app, where members of the 'Documented Credit Decision Approver (UKM_DCD)' category can be assigned. Therefore, for the 'FIN_DCD_APPROVAL' situation, only responsibility rules are supported for recipient determination as per the standard design.
