How to restart an workflow if ended in error at SEND Mail step.

Hello All
      I am facing some problem in restarting the error workflow.
Issue is:
   Workflow ended in error at the mail notification step, since the mail id is not filled into the container so there is no address (mail id) and ended in error.
   How to restart these kinds of workflow in the system?, we have tried to change the container value by assigning mail id and restarted the workflow but still went into error.
Is it possible to restart an workflow which ended in error other than rule resolution.
Regards
Anand KS

I think you went in the write approach. I think you have to change the container properly by populating the ADDRESSTRING container element. Also check whether type of email recipient in your container is et to Email.
Thanks

  • How to send mails in HTML format from the send mail step of workflow?

    Hi,
    I have a requirement where I need to send mails in the html format from the send mail step of the workflows.
    But what I found out that the html tags are not renderd and as such the output is in plain text.
    I know that there is an alternative of using an activity step and use my own custom code from within there,But due to certain business constraints, I need to use the send mail step only.
    My SCOT settings are all right.
    Please let me know how it can be done.
    Thanks,
    Samrat.

    Samrat,
    It can't be done, you have to use your own activity step.
    What are these constraints that refrain you from doing that?

    I assume that the login ID is SUNIL and the expression is fetching the 'US' appended value as USSUNIL.
    Please check the datatype of the fetched value. It should be WFSYST-AGENT.

    Hi Roman,
      I have the same issue and I'm in a consolidated environment. I'd like to know if sending through a smartform will produce an e-mail message with attachment or just a text mail and the steps required to do so.
    thanks in advance

  • SEND MAIL STEP IN WORKFLOWS.

    hi gurus,
    The send mail step sends a notification to the sap inbox of the user. This step works fine in a client, whereas it fails in another......I am not aware of the reason.
    Regards,
    Sukumar.

    hi,
    please check the agent finding rule is failed in the log or the background job is scheduled properly inorder to schedule or delver the mails using the transaction : swnconfig if it EP 5.0 or above.
    if it is issue with the workflow like buffer problem, then try this technique
    You have changed your workflow template in client 000. If you look to the workflow definition in another client with SWDD, then you see the newest version as just maintained in client 000. But at runtime, the old (former) version of the workflow definition is used.
    Cause:
    When activating a workflow template, then also some client specific data is replicated from client 000 to the other clients. In this replication there is currently an error. I just talked to a workflow colleague. The problem we have observed seems to be just the tip of an iceberg ... . They are working on the issue(s) related to this.
    Workaround:
    Execute  function module SWD_WFD_REPLICATE_FROM_9999 in the client, you need to have the newest template definition. Enter your workflow template ID (with pattern "WSxxxxxxxx") in parameter IM_TASK and execute. Make sure that you do not lock the template in SWDD.
    Then you also (may) need to execute transaction SWU_OBUF to synchronize the buffer
    i hope this answers your query.

  • Send mail step in local workflow

    Hi Experts,
    I have inserted a send mail step in my local workflow. But while executing the workflow rather than sending mail my workflow stops with status In process in send mail step. In graphical log its displaying as "No agent found" for send mail step. But i have assigned workflow initiator as agent. But other than send mail if i use other steps like user decision or activity in local workflow, wokflows proceeds with execution and sets to status completed. Should i not use send mail in local workflow step?
    Things i have done:
    1. I have mail workflow as general task from PFTC.
    2. Tried with SWU_OBUF
    3. Correctly assigned WF_INITIATOR as expression for send mail.
    Kindly help me in this regard.
    KR,
    S Bharath

    Dear Bakker,
    Sorry for the confusion. In send mail I tried with 2 options,
    1. I directly gave expression as WF_INITIATOR
    2. I created a workflow container element with type SWHACTOR and assigned a user id as initial value.
    In both cases I am not getting send mail icon and status mail sent (one that usually comes for a send mail step in log) but instead i am getting an activity icon displayed with status ready. But there is no agent icon displayed (usually we click this to find the assigned agent). So the status of the workflow remains as In process.

  • Send mail step of workflow

    Is it possible to create a new task for the send mail step of the workflow instead of using the standard task TS45308726-send mail?

    Hello Binil,
    I can't see why you would want to create another task. This task should be able to provide you with all you need.
    Any way, it is definitely possible. All you have to do is to create a method in a class that will send the desired e-mail. Inside this method you can call any send e-mail function module (for example, SO_SEND_OBJECT or SO_OBJECT_SEND - I'm not sure of the order, but you should be able to find it). After that generate a task that calls this method (using transaction PFTC).
    After that, you can insert this newly created task into your workflow template.

  • Issue in workflow binding of Table in send mail step

    Hi All,
    I am working on a Travel Management workflow where mail needs to be sent to the manager along with the trip details.
    We are displaying data in tables (html format). Now i need to add another such table with details into this already existing workflow but i am facing issues in binding.
    Issue: For already existing tables, the binding is like this,
    Export to task,
    &TRIP& --> &T_SUMMARY##&
    Import to w/f,
    &T_SUMMARY##& <--- &T_SUMMARY##&.
    But when i am trying to add my table in binding as, &TRIP& --> &T_MILEAGE##&,
    I am getting a binding error, &T_MILEAGE##& is not available in the container.
    I checked the container both in workflow and in task, both contain multiple declarations of the variable &TRIP& which is of type the BO.
    Kindly help me how to proceed further.

  • How to Convert internal table data into text output and send mail in ABAP

    Hi All,
    Good Morning.
    Taking a glance at a code that converts internal table data to an Excel file in ABAP. also checked how to send this excel to mailing list as attachment.
    But thought of doing it without excel.
    I mean, I have an internal table which contains fields of all types (character,integer,date,time). Since it is only around 4 to 5 rows in it (output),why to convert it to excel. not required!!.  Instead I  want to send this output to User's mails as Normal mail body with No attachments.
    Could anybody please suggest me a way as to how to send internal table data as a mail ( not as an excel or PDF etc).
    as of now my findings are, it is quite complex to convert internal table data to email (Text) format. but i believe if there is some way of doing it.
    Best Regards

  • How to setup SMTP server  in PC so as to send mails using JavaMail

    Hi,
    From forums i got it cleared that we can use JavaMail to send emails. I also got two sample codes about getting it done. But in the code its asks address of the host of SMTP server. I dont have any SMTP server. But i am writing a Library Application in which an email must be sent to users automatically when thier books are in overdue.
    Where can i get SMTP server to be installed on my PC so that i can use it send mails through Javamail API.
    Thanks

    Isnt there any way setup SMTP server on own pc?? I just want to send mails in my local area network.

  • How to automatic complete workflow after 3 weeks ago ?

    Hi all,
    I have one problem about workflow in SAP.
    I have the workflow that have one agent to assigned.
    How can I setup workflow to automatic complete if agent don't process task within 3 weeks ?

    Hi,
    Check whether the background job SWWDHEX is configured and its running for each 3 minutes.
    Also if you set the deadline as 3 minutes's, then you have to wait for some more 3 mins. Once the deadline reached the background job will execute the step with in three minutes. Check transaction SWWA. Here you can set the time interval for deadline job SWWDHEX.
    Then in the Activity step once the deadline is set, then select the modeled deadline in the action field. So that it will create a new
    branch in the wok flow template.
    For testing purpose, Just create a send mail step in the new branch and wait for ten minutes. Deadline will be reached and the mail will send to the inbox.
    Thanks.

  • Sending mail from workflow or Updating container from FM

    Dear friends,
    I'm new to work flow.
    My requirement: send mail from workflow to a user after dead line is missed I do not want to use messages in 'Latest end' tab. I want to send mail.
    The mail id of the user is determined in the previous step using a FM. How do I use this mail id to send the mail. I thought of using 'Rule' option in 'Send Mail' (and use same FM)but thats not possible. In that case how do I pass the mail id value to the WF container from the FM?
    I also tried this idea:
    created a task with BOR object SELFITEM, method 'SENDTASKDESCRIPTION' .
    *in an activity step used this task and filled the 'Rule' option in notification tab appropriately
    *in this case the WF goes into an error '.....error executing 'sendtaskdescription' .....'
    *i would prefer using the activity step because, the mail has to be sent after a delay
    Is there any other simple method to do this?
    My problem would be solved even if someone can show me how to transfer values from a FM into a WF container.
    Can someone please explain?

    Hi,
    => To get the deadline worked via programming, you can write your own logic. In current case,
    1. Create a custom function, having proper input and output parameters like End Time to wait if in case you have maximum of 2 days of wait.
    The total wait time is calculated from the Endtime, which is input to function module.  From the Endtime, the start date and end date are calculated and then the difference between the two dates is counted as total wait time.
    Here at the most 2 days of wait time is calculated.
