API to Set Cost Object Approver

[crystalreports]

Is there or will an API be made available that allows us to set the Cost Object Approvers?

Currently, we set the Cost Object Approvers via Employee Import 710. We would like to set this via API instead.

@crystalreports I didn't see any related item in our API catalogue, but let's see what @TriciaW comes back with.

@crystalreports @KevinD This API is in the works. It is actually included in the June release notes for web services: https://developer.concur.com/tools-support/release-notes/api/2024-06-06.html The.  development team hasn't yet updated the UPS documentation, but we hope to see that updated soon here: https://developer.concur.com/api-reference/user-provisioning/v4.user-provisioning.html and here: https://developer.concur.com/api-guides/user-provisioning/user-provisioning.html

@TriciaW, I am not sure that I see in the June API Release Notes a mention about the ability to set the Cost Object Approver, but I am hoping it really is in the works.

@crystalreports @KevinD  I was notified yesterday that there is a small correction to the information I was given. As of now, this is not in the June release notes. The June release only includes an update to the workflow API in regards to CO approvers. However, setting the CO approver via UPS is very close to being delivered.  So we will need to continue to watch the release notes for further updates.

Hi All,

We got the same requirement. To remove the flat files in uploading the 710 and 760 files . Please can any one provide the payload on how to update the project manager for a particular project through API call.
