Custome Workflow will send mail after 6 months from a document added

Hi,
I have created a custom sequential workflow in Visual studio. As per the requirement, the workflow will send mail to approvers after 6 months from the document added date. Is that possible? I don't want to use timer job, as there is some other issue. Can
I do the same in workflow itself? Which event will work for the same?
Thanks

Hi,
You can setup retention policy to start workflow after 6 months from created date:

please suggest me ASAP.

use the function module

- Email the PDF data using
SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1
examples
Option 1.
- converting OTF data returned from CLOSE_FORM (requested in OPEN_FORM) to PDF format using SX_OBJECT_CONVERT_OTF_PDF
- Email the PDF data using SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1
Result
>> Everything works fine except that the output cannot be sent to spool and previewed (due the request of OTF table in OPEN_FORM)
>> The PDF attachment can be downloaded and view directly.
Option 2.
- converting spool to PDF format using CONVERT_OTFSPOOLJOB_2_PDF

Postfix doesn't send mail after upgrade from tiger to leopard

Here is what's in my /var/log/mail.log:
Dec 31 08:26:01 weegee postfix/master[257]: master exit time has arrived
Dec 31 08:26:01 weegee postfix/master[258]: daemon started -- version 2.4.3, co\
nfiguration /etc/postfix
Repeated lots of times. I already changed my main.cf to use _postfix and _postdrop.
Thanks for the help.

I figured this out myself. The system upgrade didn't upgrade /etc/postfix/master.cf for some reason. Instead it left a new default in /etc/postfix/master.cf.system_default. Copying that over master.cf and reloading postfix did the trick.

Send mails to Agents from Infotype 105 External mails / SAP Inbox

Hi,
1) Whenever there is a change in the Address the change has to be notified to HR Business partner (HRBP) and Manager (MGR)
   a) The mail has to be sent to the Extermail id.
   b) OR it has to be sent to the SAPID (Inbox)
2) These mail ID /SAPID will be taken from the INFOTYPE PA0105, where two custom fields will carry this Mail / SAPIDs
3) Sending mail To external mail id is been done using the Function module in the rule (Inside the function module i have written a program which will collect the mail id from PA0105 and send mails)
4) Huv can i send mail to SAPINBOX from there if i have SAPID instread of external mail IDs.
Please help me to solve .

Check the Business Object that is relevant to you
ADDRESS    Address for sending documents
ADDRESSEMP Employee Address
BUS4001    Addresses of companies and organizations
BUS4002    Address of natural oerson
BUS4003    Address of "Person in company"
After selecting the Business object check which event is getting triggered when you change address. If no event getting triggered try toi configure in SWEHR3
You can take reference of the following Wflow Template
01000015
01000080
You can just use SAP User Id in mail if email address is maintained in SU01d.

Workflow to send mail 20 day before the expiry date

Dear All,
I created a workflow to send mail when a calculated column date is equal to today as follows:-
Step1
add -20 days to Current Item:Expiry Date (Output to Variable : date)
then set variable : Notification1 to Variable : date
Step2
If variable:notification1 equals (ignoring time) Today
email users
Now when i add a new item to the list , the workflow status is set to In progress , and when i refresh the page the status is changed to Completed before the condition is met and!!
Any help
Regards

If I Understood your question correctly, you need to send email to user 20 days before expiration date.
From above you workflow I can see, you are just checking your condition once a item is created. As your Step2 condition is not met your workflow is completed without any error. I suggest you might want to try below workflow
Step1
add -20 days to Current Item:Expiry Date (Output to Variable : date)
then set variable : Notification1 to Variable : date
then Pause until Variable:date
Step2
email users
Above workflow design will pause you workflow till 20 days before expiry date. and then send email to user.
Please ignore syntax, I just tried to put logic.
Below is explantion on how to use Pause Action(from MSDN) in Sharepoint workflow
This action is initially displayed in a workflow step as Pause until this time.
Use this action to pause the workflow until a particular date. You can add a current date, a specific date, or a lookup.
Following are examples of what the action might look like in a workflow step,
Pause until 1/1/2010 12:00:00 AM
Pause until Variable: A week from Modified
If this helps Please mark it answer or vote as helpful.

Sending mails after running the audit

Hi,
Please let me know if there is any standard workflow available for sending mails after running the audit. I want to inform students that they have failed in audit because of such and such subrequirement is not met.
Regards
Vinod Kumar

Hi Vinod,
If you are on Ehp4 you can use the BRF as a framework to create a custom developed event/action to send out the e-mail. Or you can copy the standard bulk program of audit calculations and create to functionality to send out e-mails after the run.
There is currently no standard e-mail related to this process. You could check the standard workflow HRIQ_ADM_UG template to retrieve tasks to be copied in your own workflow (example HRIQ_APP1).
Good luck

Getting "Error in sieve filter" message with each incoming mail and cannot recieve or send mail to or from iCloud account apart from Apple emails!! Please help!

Since approx 7am GMT I've been getting "Error in sieve filter" message with each incoming mail, worse though, since about 12 noon I cannot recieve or send mail to or from my iCloud account apart from I've been getting emails from Apple (ie I've just received a welcome one from Apple Support Communities...)!! I've had this account for years, never had a problem - it can't be the OSX Mail server because the problem is the same when I log directly into iCloud. I've tried sending emails from my Hotmail account to my iCloud account (a .mac) and just get undeliverable messages back. I'm really in the s**t now at work. : ( I just set up a Smart TV yesterday with a wireless dongle - that's the only thing I've done out of the ordinary. I've spoken to Sky who are my ISP and they say all's fine with them (although the router kept kicking my off the internet this morning which was strange...). Router seems fine now though. I'm really hoping someone here can help!!
Many thanks!!

Do you think once Apple sort this out I'll get my missing emails back?

Further changes to workflow to send mail while creating material.

Hi,
I have created a workflow which sends mail to users when a material is created.
Now, I want to send mails to specific users depending upon the Industry sector and Material type.
For eg:
1) user1 should receive mail if the new material belongs to 'Aerospace & Defense' Industry sector and 'Raw material' Material type.
2) user2 should receive mail if the new material belongs to 'Retail' Industry sector and 'Semifinished goods' Material type.
Is there a way where I can create a condition for a mail to be sent?
Thanks & Regards.

You can use Function module 'SO_OBJECT_SEND' from your BO Method.
