Extended notifications - SAP screen opens in little format

Hi all,
we're using extended notifications to warn users that they have unprocessed items in their workflow inbox, with a link in the mail to execute the workitem.
Whenever a user clicks on the link, SAP asks for the password, and it opens, but with a very little screen. Is it possible that the screen which opens is in full format ?
thnx in advance !

yeah, Martin, that's been a requirement from a customer, which I have solved by copying the RSWUWFML2 and set that option on the parameter for the function call that creates the shortcut (there are two of them in the coding).
BR Florin
P.S.: Still that window is somewhat opened in background (behind a current window). This <i>cannot</i> be solved.

P.P.S.: Here's some excerpt from that coding
*** Data field   window_size  is defined as follow
DATA: window_size   TYPE CHAR40.
*** and filled with a drop down box using these values:
         REFRESH: vrm_values.
         vrm_value-key  = 'N'.
         vrm_value-text = 'Normal window'(901).
         APPEND vrm_value TO vrm_values.
         vrm_value-key  = 'M'.
         vrm_value-text = 'Maximized window'(902).
         APPEND vrm_value TO vrm_values.
***Which then is transposed into the following values:
window_size = 'Normal Window'.
window_size = 'Maximized'.
*** Context: FORM create_shortcut_action
*- create the shortcut as table
  CALL FUNCTION 'SWN_CREATE_SHORTCUT'
   EXPORTING

  • SAP GUI for Windows - Extended Notification

    Hello All,
    I have set up the extended notifications for outlook integration with sap workitem.
    Subscription settings are as follows:
    SHOW_ACTION_DECISION_AS     - Link
    SHOW_ACTION_DISPLAY_AS      - Link2
    SHOW_ACTION_EXECUTE_AS      - Link2
    SHOW_INBOX_AS                         - Link2
    I am receiving the work item on outlook successfully.
    Now the thing is, when i click on display/execute/workflow inbox link; it is opening the SAP GUI for html & giving error "host not found". As per my subscription settings, it should open the work item in SAP GUI for windows.
    I am using the general task TS..8267 & not defined any SWFVISU config to overwrite SWNCONFIG.
    Do i have to make any other setting so that my http link "Workflow Inbox"/"Display Work Item"/"Execute Work Item" gets open in SAP GUI for windows and not in SAP GUI for html?
    Any help will be highly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Y Sharma

    Markus,
    with all respect, but this is nonsens, I mean not your answer, but SAP's policy.
    Today I can customize Windows, webpages (if implemented), my Android smartphone, with all colors, icons and much more.
    SAP is ages back in time, I would dare to say that SAP even made a huge step backwards with the new design and should re-think its policy.
    How many times customers have asked for a custom-colored GUI? Countless, I would say. Speaking from the point of a developer it is important to see at first glance which systems I've logged on, and believe me we have plenty of it.

  • I open iWeb but the main window doesn't open/appear on screen. The little windows like the inspector and font windows appear. Can anyone help?

    I open iWeb but the main window doesn't open/appear on screen. The little windows like the inspector and font windows appear. Can anyone help?

    Try the following:
    1 - delete the iWeb preference file, com.apple.iWeb.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete iWeb's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
    User/Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iWeb folder (Snow Leopard and Earlier).
    3 - launch iWeb and try again.
    NOTE:  In Lion and Mountain Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.

  • 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 Notifications with Links while using Citrix to Access Hosted SAP

    Hello,
    I am working on a system which is hosted remotely where Citrix and Single signon are used to access the SAP instance.  I need to be able to send email to their Outlook server with executable links back to the workitems.  I had planned to use Extended Notifications to get this done.  I am fine with everything except for the Citrix link.  I am not sure whether the link in the email will be able to find its way through Citrix to the SAP instance.  I also need to know the SSO is going to work - it seems at a minimum they would need to sign on to Citrix.  Has anyone out there done this, or at least know whether it would/should/won't work?
    Thanks in advance for any help you can offer,
    Jeff Gray

    As far my knowledge, on Citrix it won't work. As far portal is concerned, it will work.

  • My Iphoto version 8.1.2 stopped working today. Opens to a blank white screen with the little color wheel spinning indicating something running. I also cannot shut this window once opened without doing a hard shut down of my Mac Book Pro. What is wrong?

    Opens to a blank screen with the little color wheel running indicating that something is running everytime I put my mouse on page. I also cannot close the page or do anything concerning this page when the little wheel is running. This has gone on for hours. I can only close the page by doing a hard shutdown of by Mac Book Pro. Never had this happen before.

    Your main library is damaged.
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

  • Open SAP Screen as a Modal Screen

    Dear Experts,
    Can I open a SAP Screen (using  SBO_Appln.ActivateMenuItem(3080)) as a Modal Form.
    Thanks in advance,
    Vasu Natari.

    a "generic" method that I use is to create a field (called "Modal")  on any form that you want to be modal.
    I create the field with a top and a left = -20 (so it does not appear on the form).
    add the following code to the ItemEvent handler:
    If pVal.EventType = SAPbouiCOM.BoEventTypes.et_FORM_DEACTIVATE Then
                    Try
                        oForm.Items.Item("Modal").Click()
                        oForm.Select()
                        oForm.Items.Item("Modal").Click()
                    Catch ex As Exception When Err.Number = -7001
                    Catch ex As Exception
                        oApp.MessageBox(Err.Number.ToString + " " + Err.Description)
                    End Try
                End If
    if the field does not exist, then nothing happens.
    Of course the event will have to be filtered for the specific form.

  • SAP Extended notifications

    Hi All,
    I need to know what does the following mean? In extended notification we have category. One value in category is 'STANDARD' and other are 2 Zvalues. ZCONSOLIDATED and ZINSTANTLY. But when I double click on them, i can see no difference between zconsolitaed and zinstantly in categorie..
    Description                    Standard Category
    Requested Reliability      Undefined.
    Collective Message        Description                    Standard Category
    Requested Reliability

  • 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.
    regards

  • SSO and Extended notifications

    Hi Friends,
      We are using extended notifications to send work item as attachment(SAP GUI shortcut) to outlook and it is working fine. But the shortcut attachments are not working in case the user has an "SSO" enabled for him, it is asking for a logon password . We are using SNC product for SSO. Please let me know if it is possible to have SSO for SAP shortcuts so that the user can open the work item attachment without entering the password
    Regards
    sapient

    Hello Sapient,
    If you want to be able to logon directly via the shortcut without entering user/password then you need to use SSO. It seems there is some issue with the user SSO. Do all users have this issue or just some?
    I would also check the users SAPGUI release and patch level. Can you compare it to a user who does not have this issue. mAybe apply the latest SAPGUI patch and test again.
    Maybe note 1257108 can point you in the right direction.
    Regards,
    Eddie

  • Extended notifications: SWN_TEST_REMAP1

    has anyone come across this program? in configuring extended notifications there is a whole list of test programs but i haven't seen any guidance on when and how to run them. this one results in...nothing. is this a true negative or a false negative and how can i get to a true positive here?

    Hello experts,
    Thanks for your answers, it helped me.
    However, I still seem to have an issue:
    1) I set in swnconfig that I wanted to send mail (one mail containing mulitple notifications) for ALL work items (including these which have already been sent before): I set in my settings that I wanted ALL_FULL notifications to be sent (instead of choosing ALL_DELTA).
    However, if notifications have already been sent last time the job run, they are not part of the next mails (next job run).
    Do you know how this is possible?
    2) I chose the option "link2" to display the sap gui for windows. However when I receive an email, upon clicking on the "display link", internet explorer is trying to open a URL. Do you know how I can fix that problem?
    I saw that I needed to enter a "company logon id" in the subscription settings but I didn't because I do not know what it is and what is will be used for. Can that be the reason for the issue or do you have another Idea?
    Thanks for your help on this;

  • Extended notifications link

    Dear Expert,
    I also have a question regarding to the Extended notifications link.
    My customer want to use the Extended notifications link with subscription parameter email as HTML, one msg per category and including HTTP link to open SBWP in SAPGUI for windows.
    The problem is, that if saplogon is configured with group/server selection instead of an ordinary user specific application server entry, the link to the inbox received in the mail does not work. We get
    an error: "Logon to SAP System faild. The system description '1. RPR [ERP Production system]' cannot be found in the system list. Make sure that saplogon.ini exists and choose an existing system description in the system list.
    My customer has changed the parameter "logon_id" in trx. SWNADMIN so now the
    field "System Description" is correct filled when he accept the error message - but still the link does not end up in the small logon window.
    Could you provide some suggestion?
    Many thanks,
    Perry Song

    Hi,
    Can you check the general settings in SWNCONFIG.
    Please check the below entries for general settings.

  • Extended notifications: SWN_SELSEN

    Hello SolMan experts,
    I configured the extended notifications for work items in solman using TA SWNCONFIG (as suggested under sap library and in this forum).
    I completed all steps successfully.
    However, when I run the program SWN_SELSEN, notifications are collected but no "send job" is prepared.
    TA SCOT is well configured, TA SWNCONFIG is well configured as well.
    When I check SLG1, everything is green (including the selection job run and the delivery job); only one element appears as yellow "could not determine an agent for work item" - error swn156.
    Does someone know how to solve this problem?
