Extended Notification in Workflow issue

I have used extended notifications to send user decision to Outlook, when PR is created user decision step shows as "Ready" under status in SWIA. When I run the report SWN_SELSEN with selected check box "No time check during send". Email is not triggering to my Outlook. When I created a simple work flow with only user decision email is triggered to my outlook.
Please suggest me how to solve the issue.

Hi Sriram,
"The job for the SWN_SELSEN report checks whether there is a schedule that needs to be executed. If this is the case, the report selects work items or delivers notifications and sets a time stamp. If the schedule was not executed at the intended time, this is indicated in the time stamp. The schedule is executed the next time the job is started."
Take a look at this link.

  • Extended notifications in Workflow

    Has anybody worked on Extended Notifications in workflow? Any good documents on Extended Notifications.

    Hello Yogesh,
    What is your scenario in SRM ?

  • Extended Notification for Workflow

    Hi,
    I need to know what are all configurations have to be done in tcode SWNCONFIG for sending the notification to e-mail or SMS.
    I need sample scenario.
    Can anyone send me step by step procedure ?

    Hi MB,
    The extended notification configuration is explained with details in SAP library. I have to admit that the documentation is not very clear, and there are even some small "mistakes", but you should just try to follow it.
    Anyhow, actually it is much easier to do the configuration with transaction SWNADMIN (if the WAS environment is properly configured and you are able to use BSP applications). It is really straightforward to use. Configure extended notifications first with SWNADMIN, and then if you have to achieve something special (for example if you want to change the texts of the notification, etc.) you can do the enhancements to your scenario with SWNCONFIG.

  • Extended notifications - Shortcut

    Hi Friends,
      We have configure extended notifications for Workflow and it is working fine. The issue which we are currently facing is when the notification comes to Outlook inbox and when we try to open the attachment to execute the work item the SAP Screen is opening in a minimized state, Please let me know if you have face such a kind of issue before and what was the resolution for the same.
    Note : When I open the logon screen directly from SAP logon pad it is opening in maximized state.

    Hello,
    Are you planning on just using Delta, or also the Full?
    Some people do eg a Full every morning and then a Delta every hour or so.
    I choose to just do a Delta so that there are no multiple notifications.
    Could that be what is happening in your case?
    You say:
    "ZALL_DELTA- Delete old notifications flag is checked - Assigned main filter is ALL_FULL-STANDARD CATEGORY "
    That's a bit unusual, I would think ZALL_DELTA would be defined in terms of ZALL_FULL,
    not ALL_FULL.
    I also don't understand why you have, in Filter Settings, Delta set to X for ZALL_FULL,
    and to nothing for ZALL_DELTA. I have the opposite.
    I only have one schedule selection because I only use one filter; if you're
    using Full and Delta then I'm sure you need two.

  • Send back to author issue in HCMFP with extended notification functionality

    Hi,
    We are using HCM Forms and Processes in our project .When the Form is sent back to author by the manager, author receives the email using extended notification functionality where the author clicks on the link provided in the notification email to open the form.Till here everything working fine, but when the author sends  the form again for approval with required changes , the approver  could not see the latest changes in the form. He still see the old data. Please note standard Task TS04000020: PD Form Is Edited Again by Author is used in the workflow.
    We tried the same scenario, where author access the form through UWL, make necessary changes and send the form for approval. In this case,latest changes can be seen by approver without any issue.But, as per business we can not provide UWL and should use extended notification functionality only..
    Please help in resolving the issue with extended notification functionality as early as possible.
    Thanks,
    Pavan.

    Hi Viji,
    Regarding your question.. here is the business requirement.
    1. Author fills the HCM form , hit check and send button, so that workitem goes to approver's UWL.Author do not have portal, but performs this process from SAP GUI itself using the webdynpro link as shown below.
    https://  pint01.xxx.net:8043 /sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/asr_pd_process_execute?sap-wd-configId=ZXX_PD_PROCESS_EXECUTE
    2. Approver has buttons on the form to approve, reject or send back to author.
    3. When author hits the "send back to author" button, the work item (task TS04000020) will be created for the author.
    4. The notification email will be sent to author using the program SWN_SELSEN.The email contains a link as shown below to open, edit,check and send it again for approval.
    https:// pint01.xxx.net:8043 /sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/asr_process_execute?WI_ID=000000052545
    The problem here is, when the author makes changes and send the form for approval, the approver still see the old content only in the form.
    Thanks,
    Pavan.

  • Issue with SWN_SELSEN report in Extended Notification - Re

    All,
    I am working on ECC 6.0 and am using Extended Notif for Outlook mail generation. It's been working fine except that recently we have noticed that when a user goes to his witem thru' outlook mail and does nothing and comes out, then the witem is in IN PROCESS state. Next time when SWN_SELSEN is run, this is picking up this IN PROCESS witems and generating another Outlook mail.
    Is this the std. behavior or any control is there where we can control which witems are to be picked up.
    Anybody had this issue and any solutions or ideas will be a great help for me. Thanks in advance..
    Regards,
    venu

    Hello,
    How do you have your Extended Notifications set up now - that it just tells a user once that they have a workitem and never again?
    What is the status before they access it, READY?

  • Extended Notifications - Workflow Inbox link not working

    Hi,
    I have configured SWNCONFIG to send Extended Notifications. E-mails are being sent but the link for Workflow Inbox (configured in Subscription Settings - SHOW_INBOX_AS = LINK1) only takes to the enterprise portal home page not the inbox. I have search to have this fixed but with no luck. Does anyone know how to solve this?
    Thanks in advance.

    I have follow the configuration in this links:
    Configuring Notifications (View Cluster) (SAP Library - Embedded Processes (SAP Business Workflow))
    Subscription (SAP Library - Embedded Processes (SAP Business Workflow))
    It does not refer any specific link to the inbox. Only to activate the service: default_host  → sap  → bc  → workflow → shortcut
    And to use SHOW_INBOX_AS = LINK1 and define the portal url in parameter WG_HOST in General Settings. In addition the url while navigating in the portal is always the same (e.g either on the home page or in the workflow inbox), so I guess its the system job to re-direct to the Workflow Inbox, but this does not seem to be happening for some reason. 

  • Extended Notifications for SAP Business Workflow

    Hi expert,
    i need your help!!
    i have configured the "Extended Notifications for SAP Business Workflow" with the tnx SWNADMIN and this was successful. I can write emails, but i can read this only on SAP GUI with the tnx SOST. I don't receive email on my email-address.
    can you say me, where is the problem?
    Thank you in advance
    marcel

    Hi Marcel
    Rope in your Basis Guy!
    Basically, your Extended notif part is working fine..... emails reaching SOST is proof. Going out of SAP may need basis config.
    What do you see, a yellow triangle or a red light in SOST?

  • Extended Notification - Attachment issue

    Hi Experts,
    I configured Extended notification and its working is fine.
    But the issue is attachment is not coming with the notification.
    Actually the work item has the two attachments and in Portal UWL i can able to see the attachments.
    But the notification triggered by Extended notification, there is no attachment.
    The notification should have the attachments as like work item.
    Can any one help me on this?

  • Issue with Chinese Translations not picked up in Extended Notifications

    All Gurus,
    We are on ECC 6.0 with the below settings.
    SAP_BASIS     700     0015     SAPKB70015     SAP Basis Component
    SAP_ABA     700     0015     SAPKA70015     Cross-Application Component
    We have been using Extended Notifications for quite some time and it's working fine in EN. We now are working on generating the Outlook mails in Chinese Language. In these, there are some std. SAP texts (as mentioned in "General Settings" in transaction SWNCONFIG) are not getting picked up even though the corresponding Chinese translation exists. Specifically, the EN text
    "The following new work items require processing XXXXXXXX" corresponds to Dialog text "SWN_PROLOG_MULTI" maintained for parameter "TEXT_PROLOG_MULTI" in General settings.
    When the Outlook mail is generated in Chinese, the corresponding Chinese text is not getting picked up and says "Text Not Found". Similar issue existed for some other Dialog texts maintained for parameters "TEXT_GOTO_WI" and "TEXT_CONTACT_ADMIN" for which SAP suggested new Notes 1661893 and 1661894. For these texts, once Chinese text is maintained in SE63, its getting picked up in the Outlook mail.
    Has anybody faced similar issue with Chinese translations in Extend.Notif ? If yes, please let me know how to fix this issue.
    Also, anybody knows the message / Dialog text # for the text "Execute Work item.SAP" in the Link that is attached to the Outlook mail ?. Please tell me how to maintain the Chinese text for this EN text.
    Timely reply is really appreciated.
    Thanks in advance & Regards,
    venu

    All,
    SAP provided the translations in the Notes 1675156 & 1675157 and it resolved both the issues mentioned. Also, the "Execute Work Item.SAP" link is picked up from the Text Elements of the class "CL_SWN_NOTIF_WORKFLOW".
    As the issue is resolved, i'm closing this thread.
    Thanks

  • Extended Notification Workflow Problem

    Hi,
    I have configured Extended Notification by using SWNCONFIG transcation code for 3 scenorios. For the first 2 scenorios, it is working fine. ie. Users getting an e-mail to the outlook with 'Execute Work item' link.
    My problem is for the 3rd scenorio, configuration is not working for this. SWN_SELSEN report is not picking up the notification. I configured the 3rd scenorio same as the first 2 scenorios. I tried all the different ways. Still it is not working. i.e SWN_SELSEN is not at all picking up the 3rd notification.
    Please let me know if any one facing the same problem.

    Hi PR,
    Please find the steps below,
    1. Created new Category
    2. Assigned message templates to new Category
    3. Created new subscription:
         Delivery Sch: Every 15 minutes
         Delivery type: EMAIL_HTML
         Granularity: One message per Notification
         R Address: *
         R type: Internal SAP user
    4. Filter Basic:
        Copied standard ALL_DELTA & ALL_FULL filters and named it as Z*.
        Assinged main filter ALL_DELTA to ZALL_DELTA and ALL_FULL to ZALL_FULL.
        In the ZALL_DELTA, the parameters are ALL_DELTA: 'X' and TASK: My task number.
         For ZALL_FULL, i have assinged only TASK number.
    5. Created Schedule Selection and Delivery Selection within 15minutes interval.
    Everything i created for the same as scenorio 1 & 2.

  • Extended Notifications: how to change the URL link

    Hello,
    We are on ECC6. We use Extended Notifications to alert users to the presence of new workitems, but when they click on the link to execute the workitem, they're presented with the login screen.
    We have been able to send emails from workflow which contain a link that does not ask for a login so I know which URL to use. The problem is, how can you set the URL in Extended Notifications? How does it decide which URL to use? I've tried changing a few General Settings in SWNCONFIG, none of them made a difference.
    Any hints, tips, suggestions would be appreciated.
    regards

    Hi Rick,
    I wrote my own notification handler to solved an link issue (wanted to point to a specific iView url). I changed the notification handler via Category and double clicking on the category:
    Scenario                        WORKFLOW                       
    Category                        ZCATEGORY                    
    Description                    Adobe Administrator                            
    Requested Reliability          0 Undefined                                    
    Collective Message             A Grouping with Othe                           
    Notification Priority          5 Medium                                       
                                   Delete After Send                              
    Category Handler               CL_SWN_CATEGORY                                
    Notification Handler           ZCL_SWN_NOTIF_WF                          
    Handler for User               CL_SWN_USER_STD                                
    Have a look at some of the methods:
    LOAD_INSTANCE_WA
    ADD_LINKS_ACTION
    ADD_LINK_ACTION_DISPLAY
    ADD_LINK_ACTION_EXECUTE
    ADD_LINK_ACTION_DECISION
    CREATE_ACTION_ATTACHMENT
    CREATE_INBOX_ATTACHMENT
    Hope it helps you understand how the link is created.

  • PR - Extended Notification

    Hi,
    I have created a Workflow for Purchase Requisition ZBUSXXXXX and assigned it to the RELEASESTEPCREATED event, and in the workflow I have created a User Decision step and created a rule which will decide the approver for the Purchase Requisition and used in the User Decision Agents tab. When ever a PR is raised, work item is going to the correct approver's SAP Inbox (SBWP). 
    Now the issue is, I am using Extended Notifications to notify the user MS Office about the work item. I have configured the Extended Notification SWNCONFIG using the document available on the net. When I go the SWIA transaction the user decision step is "READY" under status. But when I run the report SWN_SELSEN it is selecting the work item, the message is not sent to the user. When I remove the rule in the workflow user decision and changed it to the Expression as WF_INITIATOR. Email is sending to the initiators MS Outlook. But when I changed Expression from WF_INITIATOR to rule work item is going to the approvers user SAP Inbox (SBWP) after I ran the report below is the output.
    Selection of Notifications
    00000000 notifications selected
    00000000 notifications deleted (logically)
    00000000 new notifications saved

    Sending Messages
    00000001 notifications selected
    00000000 messages sent
    Unable to send 00000000 notifications due to errors
    Could you please let me know the possible reasons why the notification is not sent to approvers Outlook.
    Thanks,
    Sriram Ponna.
    Edited by: Sriram Ponna on Sep 7, 2011 7:20 PM

    Hi,
    After debugging the program SWN_SELSEN report i have found out that when I use WF_INITIATTOR in the user decision  SWN_NOTIF table RECIPIENT_ID field is getting updated, when ever I uses a rule or any other US (UserID hardcoded) this field is not getting updated. I do not really understand on what basis this table is getting updated, whenever i use a rule the work item is going the correct approver SAP Inbox, so i think there is no problem with the Workflow, correct if i am wrong.
    Could anyone please provide me any inputs in this regard.
    Thanks,
    Sriram.

  • Extended notification and NWBC inbox

    Hi,
    Currently we can configure Workflow Inbox link to SAP Workflow Inbox for GUI or HTML (SBWP),
    is there any way our to configure that link to take us directly to NWBC Workflow Inbox?
    Thanks in advance
    Niketan Maral

    Hi Jocelyn,
    Thanks for reply,  Yes exactly i meant inbox link in extended notification than picked up using SHOW_INBOX_AS..there are three options
    HTTP Link that Starts SAP GUI for HTML
    HTTP Link that Starts SAP GUI for Windows
    Executable Attachment that Starts SAP GUI for Windows
    but it does not have option of NWBC Workflow Inbox.
    Sure I will update influence portal for this option.
    Btw , we could do something enhancing SWN_MESSAGE1 BSP application.
    we inserted link which points to NWBC inbox URL.
    and then we configured Msssage template using new BSP-URL.
    Do you see any issue in above?
    we will look into your suggestion of enhancing standard class as well.
    Thanks and regards,
    Niketan
