Alert in BPM not triggered anymore

Hello,
I have a strange behavior in my integration process. I defined an alert category in ALRTCATDEF and in my BPM I trigger an alert using that defined category.
This worked fine so far, but after making some non alert-related changes in the process and reactivating it, no more alerts are visible using report RSALERTDISP. Even when rolling back the history to a process version that already worked no more alerts are received.
Checking the workflow log I can see that the alert step is executed successfully "Triggers a process alert in the background" : --> Step completed.
What I have seen however is that in the list with technical details the ALERT_ID in the container is 00000. In earlier tests there was always a value assigned.
Could this be a reason or are there any limitations on the max. number of alerts that can be sent?
Any help is highly appreciated.

This worked fine so far, but after making some non alert-related changes in the process and reactivating it, no more alerts
are visible using report RSALERTDISP. Even when rolling back the history to a process version that already worked no more
alerts are received.
Did you checked the return code of your IP in SXI_CACHE after activating the changes?
Also do a check on the BPM in IR....F7...and see if there are any warning messages.
There is no limit on the number of alerts that can be raised....just that you should have unchecked Suppress Multiple Alerts option in RWB and Alert Rule should be active

Some NetStream statuses are not triggered anymore with FP 11.2

I'm in charge of developing a video recorder in as3 (http://hdfvr.com) and the video recorder has been working fine for the past 2 years however with the latest FP update (11.2) it has stopped working because these 3 NetStream events are never triggered anymore:
HDFVR.netStatusHandler(NetStream.Buffer.Empty) _state=uploading
HDFVR.netStatusHandler(NetStream.Record.Stop) _state=idle
HDFVR.netStatusHandler(NetStream.Unpublish.Success) _state=idle
This happens regardless of the media server used (Red5/FMIS/Wowza)
I have posted this issue in the Adobe Flash Player Bug Database:
https://bugbase.adobe.com/index.cfm?event=bug&id=3154124
I have also informed my clients and they're waiting for a fix, unfortunately I am not sure I can do a workaround without those NetStream events.

I've report the same problem using Flash Player 11.2.
From test that performed using Flash Player 11.3 beta 3 the issue seems to be solved, so I can handle NetStream.Buffer.Empty event correctly.
I'd like to ask your suggestion how is possibile workaround this problem until Flash Player 11.3 is not release as stable version.
Some users that use automatic update has Flash Player update to last stable release (11.2), I'd like to ask you suggestion how to correct manage this case.
I'd like to introduce some modification in the code for handle this case for example start a timer and monitor how many data are present in buffer, and when buffer is empty, use same function that should be called when NetStream.Buffer.Empty event is raised?
I'd kindly like to ask if you can give to me some suggestion.
Thank you very much

Thanks in Advance.

Hi AppleUser543210,
If you are having issues with your iPad's notification alert sounds not functioning, you may want to try some things to troubleshoot.
First, quit all running applications and test again -
Force an app to close in iOS
Next, I would try restarting and if needed resetting the iPad -
Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
If the issue is still present, you may want to restore the iPad as a new device -

Alerts sounds are not working after upgrading to iOS 7.1.2

Hi,
I've noticed that all the alerts sounds are not working anymore after upgrading my iPhone 4S to iOS 7.1.2
I’ve reviewed similar posts regarding the same issue; and it seems this is a common issue in iPhone 4S when upgrade to iOS 7.1.2.
Apple, please Advise if there anything I can do to resolve the issue especially that my work deepens on the push emails and alerts that requires prompt response.

I got this issue resolved.
It caused due to some dirt in the charger slot; such dirt caused the phone to assume as if it is connected to a car kit and that is why it does not produce any sound except the Ringer and the Alarm.
It has been fixed by cleaning the charger slot by toothbrush! with some
drops of a cleaner.
Do not do it by yourself, as it might be a risk; rather, let it to be done by an expert.

SAP Alert Not Triggering

Hi,
I seem to have an issue with two SAP Alerts that I setup.
1) One Alert is set to trigger every day morning at 9 AM.
2) One Alert is to trigger every day night at 11 PM.
The first alert set to trigger in the morning is works fine Monday to Friday. But is not triggered on Saturday and Sunday.
The second alert set to trigger at 11 PM at night is never triggered.
Can anyone tell me why this happens? Could it be because no SAP User is logged into SAP at these times? Or could it because of some other reason.
Thanks,
Krishnan

hi krishnan
rightly
said by gordon for sap alert to take place a user should be logged on to the system and for your other concern that the trigger is not happening on saturday and sunday the u may try this may be that would work out for u under company details- hi\holidays click o the arrow a new window would pop up opening this window would release to u a new window where u have the option "Ignore weekends for payments" just give it a try thats usually for payment but it may work for alerts as well otherwise there are no other settings to control what u said
or if u are using a equerry for alert please make sure the query is set correctly

BPM Alert Container Elements Not Filled

Hi All,
Another problem i am facing when i am raising alert from BPM.
In inbox i see alert message being raised but with no text.
I have also subscribed to email alerts.
In the email the subject is Process 000000008058
and the content is the first alphabet of the AlertMessage container element.
Ex : In BPM my container element is AlertMessage and the message assigned is Error . Then in email message i only get E. where as in alert inbox i get nothing.
ps : im using XI 7.0 SP 9. there are no notes which are applicable for this release.

Hi Bhavesh,
>When you select Dynamic text in the Alert category, the Container tab will no longer be available in ALRTCATDEF for your Alet Category.!
the container tab is available but the Long& Short text tab is disabled.
I did not mean that..
What i meant was see next to the Properties tab in Alert Category defination there is a Container tab where we define our own container elements.
Do i need to define the names there..or i can directly use in the BPM?

Alert 7055 - Manual Approval Required, XML messages to ECC not Triggered.

Hi All,
I have a behavior in our Client Production System.
We have setup a process in which if a PO confirmation Dates are -5 / + 5 days appart then that line item should result in Manual Approval Required.
Even though a PO line item is in Status "Manual Approval Required" a XML message is triggered and a AB confirmation gets created in ECC.
Issue we faced:- even if the Confirmation Dates are within range still the PO was ending up in Manual Approval specially if vendor enters multiple Schedule lines for the same PO line item with Dates with in +/- 5 days.
In our Test system , we implemented notes given by SAP to fix the above issue the issue looks fixed but,
Now the behavior is if the line item is having Status "Manual Approval Required", NO XML messages are getting triggered for a PO with Confirmation date beyond +/- 5 days. Once the the approval is given and Schedule line is Adopted the XML is getting triggered correctly.
I want to know from all the Experts on to understand which behavior is correct is Production correct(excluding the Bug) or the Test systems not triggering XML unless the Manual Approval is given.
I did read SAP help but i am not understanding since SAP mentions both behavior not Clear when such behavior should occur.
Please help to understand thsi behavior.
Please advise.
Thx
MJ

Hi MJ,
The behaviour in your Test system is correct.
When there is Manual approval is required which means deviation from requested which first needs to be accepted by customer in SNC.
If Purchase order item status is Manual approval required and XML's are getting trigger which updates ECC with AB-confirmation then customer will assume PO is confirmed without deviation until he/she compares requested schedule line and confirmed schedule line.
SAP standard behaviour is also same as your Test system behaviour see the help link(In process point#6)

How to raise alert in BPM

Hi Experts,
Please tell me how to raise alert using control step in BPM. What are the other steps to be used with control step for raising alerts?
Is CCMS Alerts and Alerts by BPM are same? If they are not the same, how they are different to each other?
my requirement is, simply i want to raise a mapping, data related errors by Alert.
in addition to it, i want to raise alerts for any failure in IE.
Could any one tell , what are the sequence of steps needed in BPM for the above requirement? Plz take a IDOC to FTP receiver scenario and explain me BPM steps.
thnx

Trying to get Descriptive Alerts in BPM using wlg4714

<a href="/people/community.user/blog/2006/10/16/simple-steps-to-get-descriptive-alerts-from-bpm-in-xi:///people/community.user/blog/2006/10/16/simple-steps-to-get-descriptive-alerts-from-bpm-in-xi
Hi I am trying to get a descriptive BPM Alert as per the Weblog above.
But I am not good at Java UDF.
The UDF featured how/where do I put this coding.
Scenario
BPM transform step fails and throws exception BPM_ALERT.
Within the Exception branch I setup a transform message mapping for my message MY_MESSAGE to an error message type MY_ERROR.
Within the mapping message_type --> error_message_type graphical mapping
I have mapping to node error_text.
Do I create a UDF called triggerAlert context Queue
then add the code in here? what about ResultList...
IF it needs to be a compiled class. I have tried this in the SAP Web Developer Studio Tool to write class and compile but it is erroring and will not compile...
package AlertMessage;
public class triggerAlert {
 public static void triggerAlert(
 String alertSubject,
 String[] alertMessage) {
 String strAlert = new String();
 String strAlertXML = new String();
 ArrayList returnStr = new ArrayList();
 // split message if length more than 132.
 String newAlrtMsg = new String();
 int j = 0;
 for (int i = 0; i < alertMessage.length; i++) {
 newAlrtMsg = alertMessage;
 try {
 while (newAlrtMsg.length() > 130) {
 newAlrtMsg = newAlrtMsg.substring(130);
 j++;
 strAlertXML
 += "<item><ELEMENT>XI_ERROR_MESSAGE</ELEMENT><TAB_INDEX>"
 + (j)
 + "</TAB_INDEX><ELEMLENGTH>255</ELEMLENGTH><TYPE>C < / TYPE > < VALUE > "
 + newAlrtMsg
 + " < / VALUE > < / item > ";
 j++;
 strAlertXML
 += "<item><ELEMENT>XI_ERROR_MESSAGE</ELEMENT><TAB_INDEX>"
 + (j)
 + "</TAB_INDEX><ELEMLENGTH>255</ELEMLENGTH><TYPE>C < / TYPE > < VALUE > "
 + newAlrtMsg
 + " < / VALUE > < / item > ";
 } catch (Exception e) {
 System.out.println(newAlrtMsg + "" + e.getMessage());
 try {
 // Calling Alert RFC SALERT_CREATE
 Channel channel =
 LookupService.getChannel(
 "<XI_Servername>,XICommunicationChannelName");
 RfcAccessor accessor = LookupService.getRfcAccessor(channel);
 String rfcxml =

 InputStream inputStream =
 new ByteArrayInputStream(rfcxml.getBytes());
 XmlPayload payload = LookupService.getXmlPayload(inputStream);
 Payload rfcOutPayload = null;
 rfcOutPayload = accessor.call(payload);
 } catch (com.sap.aii.mapping.lookup.LookupException e) {
 throw new RuntimeException(

What to do, How to do it...
thanks,

Bhavesh,
I do go on...
Problem:- I have re-engineered a BPM to reduce long runtimes in Collect Scenario.
(1) Incoming to XI single xml messages --> collected in a folder on XI server.
(2) Trigger renaming of messages extension to *.xml in folder at specific time ie once daily.
(3) Receiving Communication Channel (type File) is first step in BPM gets triggered.
(4) BPM block 1 Receive step in loop collects messages (1,2,3...n) into multiline container of same type as messages.
(5) After 2 minutes Deadline Branch triggered.
(6) Ends Block 1 moves to Block 2
(7) Block 2 Transform Step of multiline container to single message type.
Simple mapping ie
<LIST> 1..unbounded --> <LIST> 1
<S_STX> --> <S_STX> 1..unbounded
message1 message1
<S_STX> <S_STX> 2..
<LIST>
<LIST>
<S_STX>
message2
<S_STX>
<LIST> --> <LIST>
(8) Send step Single Message mapped using BIC Mapping to a Report XSLT Template.
If the process is successful then I get in XML message Monitor an entry and a payload. Of the concatenated messages.
If the process has an error the users want to be told about it as soon as possible hence I set up Alerting. Which works.
But on running a test scenario where message3 (structure is incorrect) at Step (7) the BPM throws the Alert correctly (no information passed as to error) and the Workflow Finishes.
In XML message Monitor the result is message1 is Greenflag. Message2, and Message3 are chequered flag.
No Message Payload generated from the BPM.
The users are not happy with this nor am I.
(1) I look at Workflow Log of BPM and see that step(7) the transformation step has information in the container elements MAPPING and TRACE (no way to reference these from BPM I know of).
(2) I read blogs etc and discover I should perhaps try to add more steps to my Exception/Alert Branch to try to deliver a Payload so the XML message Monitor shows something. Is this a correct assumption?
(3) I try to make my Alert message more informative but I am not skilled in what information is available to identify the error. The Workflow Container is not enough.
If I add a container operation to instantiate a container variable I would like to grab the Payload at least of the multiline element.
(4) To produce a Payload in the Exception Branch to output from the multiline element do I have to do a Loop and Container Operation to Split the multiline message up again into individual messages to send out to an error folder.
(5) I am trying to make it easier for the users to find the errorred files than searching through the Archive folder from the initial receive step.
(6) I am trying to stretch my knowledge of XI Error reporting so I can deliver a better solution to the users.
(7) I have some Java Skills from 10 years ago when life was simpler hence very rusty and am finding it difficult to fit it into the context of UDF's (what information can be accessed etc).
I hope this is clearer about my self made problem. I should never have mentioned error messaging to the users...
thanks,
V

To configure alert for BPM scenario.

Hi Experts
I have one BPM scenario(Asyn-Syn-Asy).
I have created one alert category for this and defined 3 alert rules:
first rule from SAP to BPM
second from BPM to 3rd party which is synchronous
and third from BPM to SAP.
But when i create faulty message by mapping error, alert is not triggered.
Can anyone tell me where I m going wrong??
And what additional configuration is required to trigger alert??
Thanks
Edited by: danishahmed on Jan 18, 2012 2:06 PM

Hi Danish,
Control Step is required to capture exceptions. If there is any error in main branch then Integration Process looks for alternate branch to execute which in this case should be Control step.
This control step will throw alert which should already be defined in Alert Category of IR.
Steps -
1. Drag a BLOCK from tools pellete and assign to your main flow. Now this block will be having 2 branches.
One branch will contain main flow and other will contain control step.
2. Right Click on Block and Insert -> Exception Branch
3. Drag and Drop CONTROL inside exception branch
Now you can configure Alert as in above mentioned my EL Netweaver blog post.

Web Service is not triggered

Hi,
I have a web service in my BPM. This web service is an automated activity to send an e-mail based on user's decision. Everything works fine, except the e-mail is not triggered.
I configured this e-mail using Logical Destination and when I tested in the WSNavigator, it sent an e-mail.
So, my question here is, how to make sure this web service is getting called and how to trouble shoot this.
1. I checked in NWA, there is nothing related to this e-mail Web Service.
2. Checked in Process Composer: Manage Tasks, I cant see anything here.
3. Web Service is working fine with both Logical Destination and without.
I appreciate any help. Thanks.
Sunita.

Hi Sunita,
You didn't say whether you configured the application communication via NWA->SOA Management->Application and Scenario Configuration->Application Communication' (CE 7.2). Since your BPM process is calling a web service you have to assign a profile to it. More information is available here: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwce72/helpdata/en/0B/EF46DBC6FA43C580E58EF2A829E343/content.htm

Email notifications are not working anymore

Hi guys,
I use Grid Control 10.2.0.2 on Windows, and email notifications for critical alerts are not working anymore.
I didn't change anything to the OMS configuration, it just stopped one day, and when I ask for a test email (in "Setup -> Notifications methods" of in "Preferences") it is successfully delivered.
I didn't find anything related to this in log files, and nothing that could help here or on metalink.
Can anyone help about that weird issue ??
thanks in advance
Antoine

Have you gone back over your notification rules?
have you tried just creating a new notification rule and testing it?
Also take a look at Note:356774.1. If you've applied any patches (or done partition maintenance) you may have inadvertently lost all your jobs, which will break the email notications.
If still no joy, then try Note:285093.1.
let us know how you get on.

Javascript calls via getURL not working anymore

After upgrading to flash player 9,0,115,0 a simple call like
getURL("javascript(alert'message')); doesn't work anymore on
Internet Explorer (it fails without any error in policyfiles.txt,
but it still work on Firefox). My IE version is 7.
I can't use ExternalInterface 'cause i need to publish as
Flash Player 7 AS2.0.
Any comment or suggestion?

I have a similar problem. When running a local HTML file,
using IE7 and FP 9,0,115,0, all the getURL function calls cease to
work.
If I downgrade to FP8, still using IE7, everything works.
If I downgrade to IE6, still using FP9.0.115.0, everything
works.
If I load the HTML via HTTP (instead of local), using IE7 and
FP9.0.115.0, everything works.
If I use Firefox, with FP9.0.115.0, everything works.
So, the function calls fail only when the swf is contained on
a
local HTML file, using
IE7, and
FP9.0.115.0. The problem is, most of our customers have that
software profile, and all of them need to load the content locally
(its very heavy for network transmission).
All the getURLs are like this:
getURL("javascript:someFunction()");
We're setting the 'allowScriptAccess' to 'always'.
Also, if we put the OBJECT tag inside the HTML (instead on an
external JS file), the function calls still do not work.
