Dynamic alert

I need to include my source system in dynamic alert message. Do i need to assign the SXMS_ERRSRC_SYSNAME to a container and then use that container in alert message (in BPM)

SSG,
Get the Sender Service name in a container element of your BPM. Use the following code to get the Sender Service ,
java.util.Map map;
// get runtime constant map
map = container.getTransformationParameters();
// get value of header field by using variable key
String senderservice = (String) map.get(SenderService);
Then use this container element in your alerts from the BPM.

Dynamic alert messages in BPM control step not getting created

Hi All,
in transaction ALRTCATDEF, i have specified dynamic text for my alert category...........
in my BPM there are 3 control steps.....and i am using this alert category in all of my BPM 3 control steps..... but the alert messages in my 3 control steps are different.........But these alert messages(which i am giving in BPM) is not coming in the alert mail in alert inbox but it gives the common message in long text(which i gave in long text while defining the alert category)......
So can anybody suggest me why my BPM alert message is not coming in the alert generated by BPM control step in the alert inbox of runtime workbench.
Thanks,
Rajeev Gupta

Hi Rajeev,
Please check if you have done the following steps:-
check the dynamic text box available in alrtcatdef transaction, while creating the alert.
In the bpm, create a variable of simple type in a container
Included the container operation and the control step.
For the container operation - give the right simple type variable container
For the control step, specify the correct alert category (this should be the one for which the dynamic text is enabled)
The alert message that you specify here should have text which will be seen when the alert raised
*To capture the dynamic alert in the alert message, which is caught by the container step in the bpm....you will have to give the name of the simple type variable
between two ampersands(&).
"But these alert messages(which i am giving in BPM) is not coming in the alert mail in alert inbox but it gives the common message in long text(which i gave in long text while defining the alert category)......"
On checking the dynamic text option in the alert category defined, you will not have the option of giving a message in the long text. So, there is no way that the long text can be seen - 'cuz you are not defining it in the first place! Hence, either you have given the wrong alert category in the bpm or have not cheked the dynamic text option.

Dynamic alert messages

Hi All,
I have got alert categories created by client,I have to use alert categories and dynamic alert message in BPM.i am not authorized for transaction ALRTCATDEF.Can you tell me where i can see dynamic alert messages for alert categories created.Is there any transaction or I can check in RWB in alert configuration
Best Regards,
Harleen Kaur Chadha

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.
Alert Management: When you define the integration process you can specify that if a particular situation occurs at runtime a alert has to be thrown using alert management.
*Used to handle business specific errors.
For example if the stock falls below certain level an alert has to be thorwn to the specified user using the integration process in this case you have to follow steps defined in alert management
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.

Dynamic alert configuration in Runtime Workbench in XI

Hi All,
i have a scenario in which i have 3 input flat files to a BPM process.........
my BPM waits for all the 3 files in a fork and on receiving all the 3 files, it transforms them to output message...........
i have put a wait condition for 2 minutes so that if in 2 minutes, all the 3 files are not got then an alert is to be generated and then i cancel the BPM process....
i have made a simple alert...........
i want a dynamic alert - meaning a alert which will specify out of the 3 files which file did not came. For example, suppose the 3 files are f1, f2, f3...... if f1 and f3 came but f2 did not came, i want a alert mail in alert inbox as "File f2 did not came".....if only f3 came, then i want a alert mail as "File f1,f2 did not came"........
Can anybody suggest how to generate alerts in alert inbox in runtime workbench dynamically in this situation.....
Thanks,
Rajeev Gupta

Hi All,
in transaction ALRTCATDEF, i have specified dynamic text for my alert category...........
but when i am using this alert category in my BPM control step, then the alert message which i am giving is not coming in the alert mail in alert inbox but it gives the common message in long text "Error in PWC" which i gave in long text while defining the alert category......
So can anybody suggest me why my BPM alert message is not coming in the alert generated by BPM control step in the alert inbox of runtime workbench.
Thanks,

Dynamic alert configuration to include filename in alert category

Hi Experts,
We have a requirement in one of our scenarios (File to Idoc) to generate Alerts for errors in IE and send mail to excepted recipient with the error description. The mail body in this case should contain the sender filename for which the error occurred.
We are able to trigger mail with in case of error, but not able to include the sender filename or anysuch dynamic value in the mail body other than the standard alert variables provided by XI.
Can we define our own container variables that can be populated at runtime (eg. message mapping) with the required information and then use this variable in the alert rule and if so how.
Any help on this would be much appreciated.

Dynamic Alerts per single cell in a dashboard

Hi,
I am trying to create a dashboard in which the main requirement is to show alerts per cell in a table(either in a spreadsheet table or scorecard component).
I have used the spreadsheet table to display data and used rectangle components on top of each cell of the spreadsheet to display alerts based on dynamic visibility.
This kind of solves the problem of single cell alerts, but here another issue is, if the data for a given selection in the header navigation has only 5 columns as opposed to 10 columns for a different selection, the width of the spreadsheet cell is not dynamically picking up as the user wants the no. of output columns to be evenly distributed in the component than re-sizing the component of the canvas.
I am trying to use Scorecard alerts, but i don't know how to create dynamic range.
Here is the condition of my alerts...
From database per data row, i will have either R or G(the logic is pre-calculated )
If the query retrieves R per row for that fact value, then show that fact value as number and display the alert in RED
Similarly for G, display GREEN color.
Can someone help how to accomplish this?
Thanks,
Medha.

Have you mapped the alerter values correctly ? Can you provide a full screenshot of the alerter configuration screen ?

Is there are BUGs? (Grid with single column and dynamical alert's thresholds)


1. When i'm using a grid with a single column of data the high of ALL grid's cells is determinated by the smallest element. That's why if there is an empty cell in data column EVERY grid cell will be shown in Flash with the minimal high. Only workaround i could find was not to have any empty cell in my grids. Screenshots are attached. (By the way the workplace view of grid and results in flash file are extremely different by high). For my it looks like a BUG. :o)


<img src="/files/GridWorkPlace.jpg" width="96" height="473" />


2. It is possible to make a reference to cell range if you want to define alerts thresholds. But if you dynamicaly change the values in this range - this changes have no efect on relevant alert indication. Was it supposed not to implement any possibility to change alerts thresholds dynamicaly? Do you now any workaround to use different alerts treshold values with single element?


<img src="/files/GridFlash.jpg" width="88" height="442" />


It was possible to attach files to my post, but i can not see them now. :o(((

Dynamic alert management

hi
I want to send an alert on a button click this happens only when the user clicks the button this alert is not a periodic alert
is it possible to achieve this with out defining the query in sap b1

Using the messaging service in the b1 i achieve this
SAPbobsCOM.CompanyService oCmpSrv;
MessagesService oMessageService;
Message oMessage;
MessageDataColumns pMessageDataColumns;
MessageDataColumn pMessageDataColumn;
MessageDataLines oLines;
MessageDataLine oLine;
RecipientCollection oRecipientCollection;
oCmpSrv = (SAPbobsCOM.CompanyService)oCompany.GetCompanyService();
oMessageService = (MessagesService)oCmpSrv.GetBusinessService(ServiceTypes.MessagesService);
oMessage = (Message)oMessageService.GetDataInterface(MessagesServiceDataInterfaces.msdiMessage);
oMessage.Subject = "My Subject";
oMessage.Text = "My Text";

Cannot generate dynamic alert for initial column in SNP.

Hello,
I have an SNP alert macro with a simple condition running from Initial column for 158 weeks. The alert is generated correctly for all other weeks but not for initial column.
The IF condition works correctly because a CELL_BG() in the same alert macro is correctly changing the color of the Initial column cell.
Is there some setting I need to make to generate alert for initial column?
Regards,
SS

Hello jejeje,
thanks for your efforts - what you describe is something users have found out on our side too - a problem remains: you can save this setting "Period from last Selection" and it brings you to the INITIAL column but: once you have scrolled forward in the SNP data view (so that the INITIAL column has disappeared) and you leave the SNP data view or select another product ... it "remembers" that you last time left the data view NOT having INITIAL column as a start column.
So, my users say that they scroll back to INITIAL column before selecting another part or using another SelectionID or leaving the SNP data view ... and of course they hate this since they have to do this a few hundred times a day worse case.
We had a call open to SAP on this and I told them that is about productivity and usabaliity issue moving from SCM5.0 to SCM7.0 - but they have nothing more to say than "not supported anymore" - and the ultimate solution is / will be to modifiy SAP SCM standard coding - unless somebody from SAP is reading the discussioons here and is dedicated to help their customers which pay millions every year into SAP support fees.
Thanks for your responses and effort !

Thomas

Dynamic message with Alert popup window?

I'm using the simplest form of Alert popup window. Is there a way I can put a dynamic alert message in the window? For example,
the Alert shows the "XYZ" at beginning, and then change to "ABC" by an event before the OK button is clicked.

First you need to create a refernce to the Alert window.
alert = Alert.show("Hello");
To change the text
alert.mx_internal::alertForm.mx_internal::textField.text = "New Text";
( had to use mx_internals because the following code is not updating the text alert.text = "New text"; )

Deleting Alerts - Database & Dynamic,Aggregates in MPOS

Hi Experts,
Having few doubts on alerts - can any you please help me in knowing more about alerts.
1.We can delete unwanted alerts even by using macros - so what is was the exact use of tcode - /SAPAPO/AMON_REORG.
Does this transaction delete all alerts irrespective whether dynamic or database?
2. Report /SAPAPO/AMODAL_DELETE - Does this report is to be used only for deleting database alerts?
In general we delete alerts using macros for a specific selection or a data view..(please correct me if i am wrong..am just trying get my basics straight).
So how does exactly these transaction and report are more useful for deletion of alerts.
Can anyone please share a document or explain how to configure dynamic alerts?
For ex : In a business scenario - if we want to highlight a cell or row or column at a particular aggregation or disaggregation level i hope we can use macro elements for achieving this?But how does the configuring in dynamic alert profile helps us?
Do we need Overall alert profile in order to set up database alerts?
3.Alert Determination background
How is this different from setting up alert in macro?can anyone please explain.
Aggregates in MPOS
When we use "aggregates at MPOS" we can access data at aggregate level faster - my doubt was when we open a planning book for a particular selection - we can see data at aggregated level right ?If so how does aggregates help us?
Please excuse if these were basics and request you to help me in understanding.
Regards,
KR.

Hi Karthik,
1. /SAPAPO/AMON_REORG helps to clear database alerts which are saved in system. Please note only data base alerts are saved in system and dynamic alerts are not saved in system - These are determined by system at runtime - so the name dynamic.
2. Please have a look at below two documents - Here Alert functionality along with configuration steps are explained nicely -
APO Alert Monitor
Implementing the Alert Monitor Functionality Using Macro Alerts to Highlight Custom Alert Situations in APO DP
Hope it helps.

Alerts in Integration Process (BPM)?

We are just beginning to use Alerts in PI 7.1. If an error occurs in an integration process (BPM), will it trigger an alert if the Alert Rule is defined wide open? Or do you actually have to trigger the alert in the integration process with an additionl step to trigger the alert?

The Alert has to be defined in ALRTCATDEF.....no matter where the alert comes from (IE, AE, BPE)
If an error occurs in BPM and you have not mainatined proper exception handling for it then....and if the processing shows in red in SXMB_MONI then the alert will be raised as IE alert
However if you have implemented exception handling for a step and then in that exception branch you raise an alert then your BPM will raise alert....the subject of your alert email will be Process <ProcessID>
BPM related alert can be either with static text (using Alert Container Variables) or Dynamic text (using some value from payload)
Please note that to raise an alert from BPM it is not compulsory to only raise it as a Dynamic Alert......static alert can also be raised.
The documents which are available for lower releases are still applicable in alert creation.....so existing blogs/ docs should work
Regards,
Abhishek.

Blank Long Text in BPM alerts

Hello Experts,
I had configured dynamic alerts in BPM (of PI 7.1) and I am raising the same through Control step. The configuration is similar as described in blog
/people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2005/03/13/alerts-with-variables-from-the-messages-payload-xi--updated
Accordingly the alert is getting generated from BPM control step.But my problem is whenever i use container variable (&variable&), i am receiving blank long text in email and in alert inbox. It works fine with hard-coded text from BPM.
I could see the container variable value in SXMB_MONI but somehow it loses Long text.
Thanks in advance.
regards
rajeev

Hi rajeev,
Make sure that your variable name is correctly spelt in all the places.
check the assignment step when you pass the value to the variable.
You can try re assigning the value to the variable afresh.
Make sure you have the dynamic text option checked in the Alert Category.

Ravi Kanth Talagana
