Exceuting work items from the outlook

Hello,
We use the MM release strategy triggering W item which are sent to outlook.
When we double click on the work item, we receive the pop up for the login (sapgui shortcut-logon(sys id, client, lang,*swnwiex)
the user id is defaulted but not the password.
We are in ECC-, sapgui 6.40.
In the previous version we used the sapmapi which is not anymore available and maintained and we had the possibility to get directly the sap screen (without entering the pwd).
Is that any solution to this?
Last question: is that possible to have the work item emails automatically deleted once the work item is executed? Indeed this deseapers from the SAP inbox but not from outlook.
Before asking I performed a search in this formum to avoid to ask the same question but in vain.
Thanking you in advance for any help
Kind regarrds
I have perfomed search in this forum before asking

Hi,
As you say the SAP Mapi is no longer supported by SAP. It has been replaced by RSWUWFML2 and this will be replaced by extended notification (see also an article here on SDN about extended notification). These give you the option to execute workitems which you get via a shortcut in your e-mail. The drawback with this is, as you mentioned, the e-mails will not be deleted. Which is logical because there is no direct link between the workitem and the e-mail in SAP.
Also for the login, you need to give password because of security reasons. If you want to connect directly, I think you would need single sign on.
If you want the functionality of the mapi replaced you need third party software as mentioned already before. I have seen it I can say it works, but it requires extra software implemented locally, local configuration and it is quite expensive.

Martin

  • Problem with executing work item from the inbox

    Hello All,
       I'm able to send mails from R/3 to Outlook along with the attachment to execute the work item directly from the outlook.
    However upon clicking the Exectute work Item.sap file I get an sap gui popup with the description " Not all data for SAP  GUI shortcut is available. System description and GUI start parameter are unknown. Entering the missing data."
    Clicking on the OK button, leads to another window for SAP logon details. After I chose the right system and on Clicking OK, it opens up the logon prompt. Entering the logo info opens up the work item correctly.
    We are on ECC 5.0 with SAP GUI 640 patch level 18 on it. Any suggestions about what am I missing to directly jump into an sap screen provided a session already is open in SAP.
    Thanks and Regards
    Uday

    Hello Uday,
    Sounds like something is wrong in the SAPLogon <i>on the client PC</i>. The system sends out a shortcut, and when it's opened it does not relate to a unique entry in the saplogon. Either it's called differently or you have two entries for the same system with different parameters.
    Hope that helps,
    Mike

  • Firefox cannot browse the internet until I clear an "OFF LINE WORKING" ITEM FROM THE MENU ?

    How do I clear "off line working?" to allow Firefox to browse the net?

    Presumably you're using FF4 (?).
    If so, do the following.
    * Right click a blank part of the Tab Bar and then click the top option called "Menu Bar". This will remove the orange Firefox button, but reinstate the text links at the top.
    * Next, click "File", then click "Work Offline" to remove the checkmark. You should now have Internet access.
    To reinstate the previous layout, repeat the same steps.

  • Display universal work item from CRM work list

    Hello all,
    In ECC system, we have defined several workflows. We can see the work item from the universal work list via the portal.
    Now, we have a new request, we would like to see these work items form CRM work list.
    I have checked the custo and I have questions:
    1. spro- Customer Relationship Management under  UI Framework  Technical Role Definition  Define Navigation Bar Profile . Select the relevant navigation bar profile and add the specific UI objects WI_BOR.
    please check the link http://help.sap.com/saphelp_crmscen70/helpdata/en/e9/7fec7e8f954e7fb60d56dd6324e313/frameset.htm

      and workflow substitute profile Id
    Thanks in advance for your help.
    Best Regards,
    Elsa

    I've found a solution.
    I've been told that this problem is occuring
    because the Work Item ID is not being passed correctly to the BOR basedtransaction.
    The solution in my case is:
    (1) Goto SPRO -> Customer Relationship Management -> IC Web Client ->
    Basic Functions -> Transaction Launcher -> Configure Transaction
    Launcher (wizard)
    (2) Give the launch transaction id in the 'Entries' screen. The launch
    transaction id is Z_ACTION_EXECUTE_WORKITEM in my case.
    (3) Keep all the parameters same in the further screens until you reach
    the 'Transaction Parameters' screen
    (4) In this screen, the value currently being passed to Object Key is
    //selectedAUI Workitem/WI_ID. Change this to
    //selectedAUIWFWIAttachments/OBJECT_ID.
    Goto last step and then say 'Complete'.

Select the folder where the photo came from, click apply then sync, now uncheck the sync photos box, click apply, it will ask you if you want to remove the photos click remove, it will not delete other photos exept the ones in the folder that was synced. Then click sync and the photos will be removed

  • How to include sap work item in the email sent by workflow - WS01700044

    Hi,
    In FSCM Dispute Management, we have a requirment to include the sap work item in the email being sent by the workflow - WS01700044.
    The underlying task in it is TS01707928. This Task sends an email to the outlook as well as work item to SAP inbox.
    We want to include Sap Work item in email being sent to the outlook.
    This will help the users to process the workitem directly from the email instead of going to SAP Inbox to process the work items.
    Please suggest the possible ways.
    Thank you.
    Vijay

    Sadly, I believe this will require a bit of development to make it happen. The project I'm on now...we are finding that to get it to do what we want it to do, a development to customize the email message to include all the case fields is required.

  • Can I remove items from the Services menu?

    I think the subject line says it all: can I remove items from the Services menu? I have a number of items in the Services menu that I never use and I would like to make the menu shorter to make it easier to access the items that I do use.

    There are a couple of things you could try. There's an application called Service Scrubber that is supposed to do this. But the web page says it's for 10.4, though it says it might work on 10.3
    Alternatively, you can edit the Info.plist or Info-macos.plist file in each application bundle to remove its service from the Services menu. This post at Mac OS X Hints has a pretty detailed description of how to do it. I tried this on my iMac running 10.3.9 and it worked just fine.
    Don't know about the Service Scrubber app, but if you edit the plist files, you'll need to log out and log back in before the changes take effect.
    Also, if you decide to edit the files by hand, I'd suggest just renaming NSServices by adding an "x" to the front or something, rather than deleting the item completely. That makes the changes easier to reverse.

  • Migration of Work Items from one system to another

    Dear Experts,
    We are migrating an application from one system to other and it involves BI, Webdynpro, BSP and workflow. This is mainly a portal application which involves BI as the backend. While migrating the application with the existing data we also require to migrate the open Work items of the Users.
    Can anyone help us in migrating the Work Items or the possibilities of doing the same.
    Useful suggestions will be appreciated.

    Hi All,
    Am opening this thread again.
    Using Transaction SWW_SARA I have Archived the Completed and Cancelled workitems in one Production system(For Ref, P1) and it got stored as a File in the Application Server.
    But while I tried to view the archived workitems via the same Transaction I can see only the header of the Workitem and not the detailed information of the same.
    Is this the only method to view the archived Workitem or any other way is available to view the detailed Information. Also is it possible to transfer the archived file to another Production system and view the workitems?
    Please help me in finding the solution for above scenario.
    Regards,

  • Delete Work Item from PO Releaser's Inbox during Workflow

    Hi All
    How can I delete the previous Work Item that was created in the PO Releaser's Inbox if a PO was changed which re-triggered the PO Release workflow but this time to a different PO Releaser.
    The workflow is working correctly, i.e. creating the new release item in the new releaser'd Inbox but not deleting the old Work Item for the previous releaser.
    Any idea on how I can accomplish this?
    Kind Regards

    PLease refer the below stuff................create a task and put the code inside the method.This task should be fisrt step in your workflow.

    Workitem goes to approver .
    Now , the user immediately changes doc from FBV2 , sets it to Complete again and workflow triggered
    workitem goes to the same approver for the same document.

    Second way is to create a fork , and use wait for event step in it with the same event that is triggering the WFL
    In the same branch take a process control to end workflow instance.
    In the second branch carry out normal processing.
    Necessary branch = 1.
    So incase the user triggers the event again, a new instance will be created ,
    and in the previous instance , the first branch will follow ending the
    previous instance and the workitems of other branch will be logically deleted.

  • Forwarding of Work Item from Approver's Inbox

    Hi All,
    We are in SRM 5.0 SP07 Classic Scenario.
    We have a requirement of restricting forwarding of work items from approver's inbox to users who do not have a approver's role. Presently, when the system takes in a user ID who is having a requisitioner role or for that matter any role. The requistioner receives a work item but the requsitioner is not be able to approve/reject the workitem.
    We would like to ensure only the approvers are selected in search and other users are not even displayed for selection.
    Is there a way to achieve this?
    With Regards
    Sathya

    Hi,
    As per the config guide,when you try to assign the User,using the FIND button,you will get to see all the users with the role "SAP_BBP_STAL_MANAGER" who can approve.
    Else you can filter the possible selection with the BADI BBP_CHNG_AGNT_GET.
    See the foll thread for more pointers:

  • Always first item from the punchout catalog will get missed in SRM cart

    Hi All,
    Recently we have configured the vendor punch-out catalog in our SRM system. We are able to get in to their catalog and able to select the items. However we have observed the following.
    1) When we select 3 items from the list we get only 2 items in to our cart.
    2) When we select 4 items we get only 3 items to our cart
    It is noted that always the first item selected will be missing when comes to SRM shopping cart.
    We have debugged the Badi BBP_CATALOG_TRANSFER and observed in that only 2 items are entering in to SRM server in the first case and 3 items are entering in to SRM server in the second case.
    One more thing observed that when we select only one item in the catalog, that comes to our shopping cart without any issues.
    Can any body help me in this, is this issue with vendor side or can there be an issue at our SRM server.
    Thnaks
    psamp1

    I take it that you checked the CATALLOG_CONTENT table? Does the table CATALOG_CONTENT_ERRORS have any errors posted?
    Checking if the error is at the vendor site:
    Check the source code of the vendor just before the shopping cart is returned to SRM. Sometimes it's easy, just right-click in your browser and click 'show source'. This opens the source html of the page. Search for "NEW_ITEM" and see if all products are there.
    The difficult thing is that sometimes the vendor catalog uses a self-posting form. Timing is important then. Right after you click press the escape key, this stops your browser from continuing. Now do the above again.
    Things you can bump into: you're too quick, there is no form with the NEW_ITEM lines. You're too slow: you're back in SRM already. So if it doesn't work at the first try, try again.
    Check all the NEW_ITEM lines and see if the first item is missing there.

  • Clear Recent Items from the Dock

    When I right click on Preview on the Dock, it shows a list of recently opened files.  A friend of mine needs to remove those for some reason.....  He tried clicking File>Recent Items>Clear Menu and clicking the Apple Icon>Recent Items>Clear Menu and restarting Preview.  This removes Recent Items from the Menu Bar but not from the Dock.  Another problem is the last picture that thats open appears when Preview is started.  Is it possible to disable this or preferably the entire "Resume" feature of Lion?

    macridah wrote:
    This also happened to me and I was going crazy because the items might of been deleted or from a DVD that is no longer mounted.  So this is how I solved it.
    To summarize, you need to delete or rename some files in your local "Library" directory, ie ~/Library/Preferences directory.
    For the iWork apps and Preview.  Rename these following files with a "~" in the beginning or delete it or to be safe, copy to another location:
    "com.apple.iWork.Keynote.LSSharedFileList.plist" to "~com.apple.iWork.Keynote.LSSharedFileList.plist"
    do the same for these files
    com.apple.iWork.Numbers.LSSharedFileList.plist
    com.apple.iWork.Pages.LSSharedFileList.plist
    com.apple.Preview.LSSharedFileList.plist
    One way to do it through the GUI is open finder, go to the "Go" menu and press the "option" button.
    Choose the Library menu item and open the "Preferences" directory.
    Look for the files mentioned above either rename, delete, or move.
    Close the application and see if the recent items still appear when you right mouse click the icon in the Dock.
    If that doesn't work, then logout and log back in.
    Hope this helps or solves your issue.
    I just used this to delete the recenttly opened items on Quicktime that appeared on the dock even though the 'Recently Opened' folder frm the Menu was empty. It worked like a charm.
    Now I still need to quit the Application after deleting the 'Recently Opened' on the Menu bar in order to make the dock recently opened disappear as well, but it works!

  • Suspect Email from the Outlook Team

    Hi,
    I received an email from the outlook team this morning saying that my account has been involved in suspicious activity, which from my knowledge it has not. It proceeded to say that they had blocked my account and I needed to follow a link to unlock it. I
    was suspicious that it wasn't actually from the Outlook team and did nothing about the email. I have since received some of my normal daily emails that makes me think my account is not blocked. I am wondering if there is a way you are able to confirm whether
    your team sent me this email or not? I don't want to follow the link if it is perhaps linked to a virus.
    Thanks for your help.

    Hi MoRow,
    See, I think you have victimized from the some spam (virus) email. As I know Outlook Team does not send such kind of email if they predict someone’s involvement in wrong activity. 
    Just block the particular email address from which you got such fake email with the assistance of Block Sender List feature of MS-Outlook and work smoothly with Outlook.
