Alert intimation as mail

Hi SAP Experts,
Is there be any option with the help of which i can have a mail in my inbox if the planned completion date of an activity has crossed and its not been confirmed.
let say there is an internal activity with duration 2 days so my question is if any how the particular activity is not getting completed in 2 days so just to have a remainder kind of thing i need to check the same what is wrong with the completion.
can i have a mail in my inbox that the particular activity is late or not completed so that i can revaluate the thing and work on the same.
so its kind of alert which shud come when a particular work has not been done as per the schedule.
let me if it is possible to have the same in standard sap ps or any other option i can try for the same.
Regards,
Kamal rana

Hi Kamal,
can i have a mail in my inbox that the particular activity is late or not completed so that i can revaluate the thing and work on the same.
You need to use Deadline monitoring for this. Add a Latest End for the activity you need to track.
Add a time duration of 2 days and create a Refer date/time as 'WIS workitem creation' to it. Action 'Modeled' and give a recipient message.
In the branch created, add a Send mail step to send reminder mail to you. You would recieve this mail if the activity is not acted on within 2 days.
Hope this help!

How to configure ML Server to send Alert Notifications by mail?

Is it possible to configure Mountain Lion Server to send out Alert notification by e-mail without enabling full Mail services?
I don't want to run the Mail service on the Server. I'm quite happy with my ISP's mail service. Besides, I have a dynamic public IP address, hence no rDNS entry (so I couldn't run Mail if I wanted to). And I don't have the expertise to configure and maintain the Mail service. But I would like to get the Server to send me any important alert notifications by e-mail.
I have access to an authenticated SMTP server I can use to relay the outbound alert notification emails. But I don't know how to coerce the alert service into using it. Is it possible to do so, or does one need the full-blown Mail service to be configured (with both dovecot and postfix running) in order to get Alerts to be e-mailed?
Thanks for any help.

@MrHoffman,
Thanks for the pointers and suggestions.
The config for my ISP's SMTP server is correct. I specified the port (:465), and double-checked userid/password. It's the same as used by all our e-mail clients (a half-dozen or so on various Macs, iPhones, iPads, Linux boxes), all of which work fine from my LAN.
As for DNS, it seems OK. (I am indebted to you for the excellent series of articles on servers and networking at http://labs.hoffmanlabs.com/node/1705 )
The changeip command reports:
The names match. There is nothing to change.
dirserv:success = "success"
However, I should point out that I do not have the DNS service enabled on ML Server. I already have a local DNS running on my gateway router. (it's an instance of the dnsmasq process that is part of Tomato firmware). It has local names defined for all the servers and hosts on my LAN, and provides rDNS for them as well.
However, what I haven't done is enabled the Mail service. You've (slightly) misunderstood the core of my plan. My intent is not simply to secure the local mail server against remote access. I don't want either remote or local users from accessing the mail server. I don't want it listening for POP or IMAP connections from anywhere (on my LAN or remotely). I don't want it receiving inbound mail from anywhere. I don't want it relaying outbound mail for any client on my LAN. All I want the ML Server to be able to do is to send me alerts (by e-mail) when it's in need of attention. Other appliances on my LAN (eg. a NetgearReadyNAS) can send me e-mails when they are unhappy, and I hope I can coerce the ML Server to do the same.
I know I don't have the expertise to operate and maintain my own mail server, and I'm quite happy with the mail service provided by my existing network service provider. Plus, I'm behind a cable modem with a dynamic IP address, so I'm unable to establish my own rDNS record (which I understand is required to handle inbound mail).
It looks like the next step is to turn on the Mail service. But I'm sure it's going to be unhappy since there's no MX record set-up. I was hoping there was a way that ML Server could simply send out its own outbound alerts (using my ISP's SMTP relay) without having the incoming part of the mail service active. But perhaps Apple didn't anticipate that sort of configuration.

Automatic sending of Alert through e-mail

Hi All
We have one alert which is generated with a query. Now afteer generating this alert we want to have system to send automatically this alert to some recepient via e-mail.
Now will you please tell me the procedure to be follwed to integrate this so that the generated alert is e-mailed to selected employee of the organisation.
Thanks & with regards
Aloke Bandyopadhyay

Dear Balaji
Sorry for the delay in replying to your suggestion as there was some problem in our system for which communication was not possible. Any way after going through the settings as you have advised we could not get the required result i.e. alerts are not been sent through mail. We have outlook integration installed and in "Administration ==> Add-ons ==> Outlook Integration ==> Deafoult Settings" check box "Sent E-mail via MS Outlook" is set. Till then alerts are not been sent to email of the user.
Please suggest what else to do.

Alerts for sending mails

Hi all;
i am configuring alerts for sending mails . i am on XI 7.0 SP 2.i am not able to find an option like internal processing in ALRTCATDEF settings configurations.
Can this be the reason why mails are not getting send.

Hi Mudit,
To send an EMAIL, assign an EMAIL ID to the corresponding user in the transaction SU01 and then set up SCOT and you can send emails when the ALERT is triggered.
Once you have configure Alerts, you will get the Alerts into ALERT INBOX in RWB of the user. To also get the email, the following needs to be done,
1. In SU01 -- Assign the Email ID for the Recipient of the ALERT.
2. In , RWB>ALERT INBOX> PERSONALIZATION--> Time Independent Delivery and Email are selected.
3. Finally, SCOT needs to be set up to send Emails. Check this for the same. You can ask your BASIS team to do this step.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/23/1edf098ea211d2b47300609419ed29/frameset.htm
Also, In ALRTCATDEF, go to SETTINGS--> CONFIGURATION. By default, the option selected is INTERNAL PROCESSING. Select the option SMTP FORWARDING AS XML and give the email id. This will enable you to send an email alert whenever an error occurs in XI.
Also, to test your Alerts, execute the report RSALERTTEST in SE38.
Also go throuh the following links...

Alerts to external mail

Hi ,.
Step by step mayerial on Alerts to external mail
Regards,
radhika

hi,
Alert Configuration:- You use alert configuration to have the system informed you about the errors that occurs during message processing.
*Used for alerts that occurs at IE.
defining Alert Categories
During alert category definition, you specify the alert text, expiry time, escalation, and all other conditions related to the sending of this kind of alert.
1. Ensure that you are in change mode in the alert category definition environment (transaction ALRTCATDEF).
2. Choose Create Alert Category.
3. In the Alert Category column, enter a technical key. Choose a key that describes the situation that triggers the alert, such as CUSTCANC for a category responding to a customer cancellation. This key is language-independent and identifies the alert category. The standard namespace convention applies to the key, this means keys Z* und Y* belong to the customer name space.
4. On the Properties tab page:
a. In the Description field, enter a description for the alert category. Choose a description that is informative with respect to the content of the alert category. The description is language-dependent.
b. If required, you can select a classification in the Classification field. If you do not choose a specific classification, the category is stored in the classification folder Unclassified. For more information on classifications, see Alert Classification.
c. In the Max. No. of Dels field, specify a maximum number of times that an alert of this category is to be delivered if it is not confirmed. This refers to delivery using a communication channel other than to the recipientu2019s display program (UWL, application-specific program, or alert inbox).
d. Select Dynamic Text if the texts of the alert category cannot be defined at this stage. This refers to situations in which the texts are not known until runtime, for example when CCMS Alerts are forwarded to ALM.
No translation can be performed for alerts with dynamic text. System messages can be entered manually in several languages.
e. In the Expiry Time in Min. field, you can enter a life span for alerts of this category if the alerts will no longer be relevant after a specific period of time. If the expiry time elapses, the alert is removed from the alert inbox and is no longer delivered using any other channel.
Expiry times can be derived from various sources. Priority is given first to the data provided by the triggering application, second to the BAdI ALERT_EXP_DATE, and third to this field in the alert category definition. If none is found in any of these sources, the default expiry of 31.12.2099 applies.
f. If you wish to specify an escalation recipient, select Escalation Active and enter the escalation recipient. Also specify a tolerance time in minutes. When escalation is active for an alert category, an alert is escalated if none of the alert recipients has confirmed the alert after this tolerance time. The escalation recipient is also informed that he or she has received the alert because of an escalation.
The escalation functionality is based on the administrator report RSALERTPROC. This report has to be scheduled as a regular job. For information on this report.
5. On the Container tab page, define any variables that you may want to use in the short text or long text. You can also define other application-specific variables, such as company code or material number. These variables are then replaced at runtime with values from the application. For more information, .
6. On the Short and Long Text tab page, enter texts for the alert category. You can include text variables referring to elements of the alert container or system symbols. In the case of a container element, the variable must be defined in the alert container. The entry in the text must be in the form &<ElementName>&.
The title is used as mail title, fax subject, and alert title in the inbox. The long text is used as mail/fax body and the long text view in the inbox. The short text is used for pager and SMS.
7. On the Optional Subsequent Activities tab page, you can enter URLs for subsequent activities. If you trigger your alerts by calling a function module, you can also specify dynamic subsequent activities. For more information, see Triggering by Calling a Function Module Directly in Triggering Alerts.
8. Save your entries.
You create an alert category to use in alert rules.

Is there a way to set up different ringtones/alerts for different Mail accounts? I'd like to make my personal and business emails ring/vibe differently.

Nope, as you look in your settings mail only has one option to change the sound and thats for any mail that is recieved.

How can I receive Apple alert via iCloud mail system?

Currently my login ID is the same as my Gmail address.
So, my Apple alert (that lets me know about my account info change or new login) comes to my Gmail inbox.
However, I want to receive these stuff via iCloud mail so that I can collect my Apple alert in my iCloud mailbox.
How can I do this?
I'm now using my iCloud mail address with my account of which name is my Gmail address.
Or, if possible, I want to use only my iCloud mail address as my main ID and totally get rid of my Gmail address from my Apple account.
Plz give me a tip.
Have a nice day.

If you don't know your ID, you can try to find it as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5625. If you don’t know your password you can reset the password as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2617.

CCMS - alert notifications through mail

HI All,
We have configured CCMS in our Landscape . Everything is working fine. But now we have a new requirement to add some receiptents in CC list of alert mails. I have included all the receioptents list in alert category. But my question is how differeniate to & cc list of alert mails.
Is there any way to include receiptents in CC list of alert mail?
Thanks.
Nagarjun.

Hi Nagarjun,
You can only send to a mail recipient or a distribution list (DLI) via the standard code. I checked this SALO_EMAIL_IN_CASE_OF_ALERT and there is no section where you can enter Carbon Copy (CC) for the recipient type. So you will have to customize this. Please refer to "SAP Note 176492 - Automatic email when an alert occurs (RZ20)" for addtional information
You can check the SAPoffice example reports BCS_EXAMPLE_1 to BCS_EXAMPLE_8 (SE38 -> BCS_EXAMPLE* -> F4 key) to see how SAPoffice manipulates recipient addresses.
