Create an Alert w/ Email?
Hi- newbie here.
I have a SQL query that identifies issue POs that need to be emailed to people to be fixed.
A report has been created using the query. However, we have determined that it would be best if the report could be scheduled to run nightly and the results emailed only when there is output.
How do I make this report run nightly, and then email people if it has results? I know how to create an alert now...but how do I make it so it only emails when I have a result in the SQL statement? Thanks!

Database version ? OS ? Do you have an smtp gateway ?
"PO" Is this Oracle EBusiness Suite, or another application ?
In Ebus you could use the Alert product. In another application you could use UTL_MAIL or UTL_SMTP called from a scheduled plsql package.

How to create an alert in Oracle Applications
Can anyone help me, I want to be able to create an alert (not email) that will pop up on the screen of Oracle Applications 11i
to remind everyone to change the passwords in xx days. I know there are alerts that send email, but people hardly check their emails
promptly in my organization so I wish to use forms to create an alert that will pop up on the screen.
Thanks.I think there is some confusion here! The solution that has been outlined is the 'standard' way of achieving the result that a user has to change his/her password every xx days. BUT, this will only prompt them when they try to log in AFTER the xx days has expired.
I think you are asking for a method of alerting the user xx days BEFORE the password is due to expire, like Windows for example.
I am not an expert in technical changes to forms (e.g. forms personalisation), but I thought it might help if I clarified what I think you are asking. Others may have the actual answer!
An alert would possibly achieve what you want, but consider this... if users don't read their emails, and they only log in occasionally, what use is alerting them on the system going to be? They will still only see the alert when they log in, and that may already be after the password has expired!
If my interpretation is wrong, please update this thread so I don't confuse anybody.

After ASN is created by supplierand Published-email alert besent to Custome
Hi after an ASN is created and Published - can email Message or Alert be sent to customer from SNC system.
Thanks,
MaheshHi Mahesh,
It can be done.
1. Activate the Alert type.
If you can see the alerts in Alert Monitor, what you can do is
2. Update your email address in SU01.
3. Create "Selection Profile" in Alert Monitor for the Alert Types you would like to receive email. Selection profile can be User Specific or Partner specific.
4. Select the Selection Profile and choose "Set Notification"
5. You can set the minimum priority of the alerts. e.g. you may choose to receive the alert for High Priority message.
6. Make sure that you can see your email address.
7. Click "Immediate Notification".
8. SAVE
You can further check if SMTP (SCOT) settings are configured in your system.
Schedule a periodic job for /SCMB/ANOTPULL.

How to create Oracle Alert without metioning the email address in To Field
Hi,
I just wanna know that how to create Oracle Alert without metioning the email address in To Field.
Please help thanks.If you don't enter anything in the email field, the alert email won't go out.
If you just want to test or if you plan to use the history, you can put a non-existant email there.
The alert will fire anyway.
Hope this helps,

How can I create an alert in iTunes store?
I would like to create an alert in iTunes store, such that whenever a new album of a specific group appears I will receive an email.
Is that possible? if so , how ?
Best regards,
Gabriel.If you go to the artist's/group's page in the store then you should be able to do it e.g. search for the artist in the store, and on the right-hand side of the results page there should be list of content categories that match that search, and below it a link for the artist
Click on the artist's name to go to a screen listing their items, and at the top right of that screen there should be a 'share' icon'
Click on that and on the popup you should have an option for 'alert me' (I haven't used it but I assume that it works).
You can see what alerts that you have, and remove them, by logging into your account via the Store > View Account menu option - on your account's screen there should be an Alerts link -
Alerts to email when Bex Broadcaster Failed
Hi Experts,
Currently we are broadcasting Business KPI reports to the users from SAP BI at a scheduled time.
These broadcast settings are based on webtemplate. Some times the broadcast setting which is scheduled will fail due to the most frequest errors like " Error while generating HTML" etc.
The issue is only temporary basis, next time the same error will not come and the issue is not reproducable.So is there a way we can configure the alerts to emails when the bex broadcast setting is failed.
Transaction to see logs of broadcast settings is RSRD_LOG.
Thanks & best regards,
Sudhakar.k3 possible solutions that come to mind:
1. Write custom ABAP program that checks RSR_PREC_SETT table and sends email when report failed entry is made, and schedule program to run periodically
2. Create process chain that kick off Broadcaster report and would also notify if report has failed.
3. You can also schedule RSR_PREC_SETTINGS_RESTART with Current date variant to run periodically and this job will restart any failed broadcaster reports from that day (stored in table RSR_PREC_SETT)
Check out this article for additional information:

How do I create an alert for a collection?
Hi,
I created a collection that queries computers with Endpoint definition files of 7 days and older. Now, I want an email alert daily what computers are in that collection. How do I do that?
Please give me some steps if possible because I am not familiar creating an alert.
If you have an alternate/easier way, my goal is to receive email alerts of computers with old Endpoint definiton files 7 days or older.
Thanks!Hi Jeremy,
So I created a report and it shows under Subscriptions (just like how it was instructed). I also check Administration \ Site configuration \ Sites \ Configure Components \ Email notifications and tested, all is good.
I noticed that under "Report Delivered By: I only have "Windows File Share". No Deliver by Email option.
I see that the report ran as how I wanted it. The result was there but where is my email? Am I missing any more steps?
Thanks for your help in advance! -
Scom - generating alerts from emails received
Hi All,
We have an in house monitoring tool that we use to send email alerts to some of our support teams.
Is it possible to have scom receive these emails and generate an alert based on these?
I would like to do this without the use of scorch monitoring a mailbox and generating the alert for me, simply have "scom" receive the email and create an alert.
Regards,Hi
SCOM is not able to receive mails. You don't have many choices if you don't want to use Orchestrator. I probably would build a PowerShell Alert Rule or Monitor which runs frequently and checks the "mailbox" and depending on the script criteria
and mails creates an alert.
Cheers,
Stefan

How to create an Alert Service using Oracle9i wireless?
Hi All,
I wanted to create an alert based service on oracle9i...but i am unable to figure out from where should i start doing..i am under basic confusion of how this whole system actually works..how to configure my service..can any body suggest me...
thanks in advance
krishnaYou can use the web enabled portal of ASWE. This can be found in one of the folders:
oracle home/panama/server/portal/Login.jsp
oracle home/panama/server/papz/
please add an alias to your apache webserver so that you can run the Login file. Once your are logged in you can add alert addresses and alerts.
Be aware that you need to configure an sms server if you would like to create alert services for mobiles. You can also add an email adress.
Good luck

Hi Experts.
Our client is running SBO 2007A SP00 PL47.
They are using Approvals for Purchase Orders.
Those users who should be approving the Purchase Orders are not typically logged in to SBO and only log in to authorise the Purchase Orders.
In order that the originator of the Purchase Order does not have to verbally request their manager to log in to SBO to approve the Purchase Order we have created an alert to each manager which runs each hour which is delivered by email rather than the internal messaging system in SBO.
The query is:
'SELECT 'PO awaiting your approval in SBO' from WDD1 where status = 'W' and userid = 6'
where 6 is the userid.
The client maintains the managers only get the emailed alert if they are logged on to SBO which somewhat defeats the purpose of the alert.
I spent some time yesterday testing this and could only get the alert to enter a record in ALR1 when the user was logged on.
Any ideas experts.
Thank you for your time.
Julie CoppinsHi!

Alerts through Email Using BPM
Hi Friends,
can anybody help me on BPM as i am new to BPM.I need a help from you , i want to send an alert through Email using BPM can any body send me a sample scenario related to this one.In BPM you create the Alerts. In Alert Configuration (in RWB) you can define for each Alter Category whether it is to be forwarded via Email.Prerequisites for that:
1. XI/PI must have been configured to send Mails (SMTP)
2. All receivers must have maintained an Email Adress in SU01
3. Only users defined in XI/PI can get the mails.
4. Schedule the regular sending of Emails out of the XI/PI system using transaction SCOT
5. The Mail Server (Lotus Domino or Exchange Server) must accept Mails from XI/PI system (Server and Port). Ask your Mail Guys.
6. If you do not define the Mail Server as IP address in SMTP configuration take care that the XI/PI is able to resolve Server Name to IP Address (e.g. by maintaining local hosts ob XI/PI).
Hope this helps!

Thanks in advance.
Regards,
AshishDear Experts,
Following are the steps i performed in order to receive email alert
1. Created a user with email id.
2. I selected minimum stock deviation alert.
3. I checked both internal and email.
4. Did a goods receipt and a sales invoice to trigger the relevant alert.
5. Internal got triggered now wish to know how to get the same through email.
6. Is there any references available from SAP?
7. Can SBO Mailer be used for the same? Do guide.
As guided further these steps were also followed,
1. SBO Mailer setup
2. Give SMTP server in the general settings.
3. Test connection proved successful
4. Checked Send notification by internal mail
5. Connect Database
6. Schedule based on minute
In spite of all these done the alert did not generate through Email. The version imy client is on is SAP B1 2007B PL15, Could you be kind enough to guide how the same can be perfomed.

How create mail alert without triggering the event.
1. SR 3-4924626351: How create mail alert without triggering the event.
We wanted to send alert mail every 10 days or 15 days or 1 month to a reporting manager of Opportunity Owner with details of that Opportunity. I don’t want to use any triggering of event like the Following. When new opportunity is created When modified Opportunity is saved etc.Raju,
If you don't want to use the triggering event, you will have to do this manually.
Manually:
- Create a Web Link on the SR with and embed the mailto: function with the receivers email and subject and body embedded in the url (you can find this link on Google)
- When this link is clicked, an email window will open with all the details you provide, and you can click the send button to send the email.
- You will have to do this manually every 10-15 days or whatever is the duration
Auto:
- Create a time based workflow on a new Opportunity Created event
- create a action to send an email notification to the concerned person (details in the workflow properties)
- This workflow will auto send an email every 10-15 days to the opportunity Manager.
The time based workflow is the best option I see. Do you see any issue/ concerns with auto generated emails?
Hope this helps!
