HTML in Alert Category Long Text?

Hi All,
Can I include HTML in the Alert Category Long Text and have it show in the alert email that's sent out?
Thanks,
J Wolff

I donot think this would be possible...but i maybe wrong...
The reason is that the content type set by the alerting framework for the mail that it sends is "text/plain", so even if you have html tags it would just be interpreted as plain text only...
If by some chance we can set the alerting framework to send emails with a content type "text/html"..then it would be possible..
Thanks,
Renjith

ALERT Category Lont Text (email) fomatting

I have Alert Management configured to send an email alert correctly. I need some formatting for the email and therefore I choose to edit the alert category long text using SO10 ( remembering that the Text-id is ALRT ). while editing the Alert's Long Text using SO10, I add bolding, paragraph formatting and some IF statement as I would in a sapscipt for as commands. Print Preview of the newly updated standard text ( example used ALRTFRMWRKTESTL for SAP supplied alert category ASRTFRMWRKTEST ) show the formatting looks great, but when we triger the alert and view the correponding email based on this long text, we find the formatting is lost. Is there a way to hae the formatting show in the email?

Hello,
I Think you are able to send the email with HTML tags.
You can also use the famous FM ZOUTLOOK to send email with the format you want, but you can only do it with you oulook client.
hope this helps

Alert : long text not complete

Hi all,
I manage specific alerts in my BPM.
I have defined it as "dynamic text" alerts in ALRTCATDEF.
These alerts are well thrown by PI however I can see only the first caracter of the long text.
My version is PI 7.0 SP8.
Is it a known issue ?
Thanks in advance,
J.C.

Hi JC,
This may not be an issue at all...and just the way alerts are shown in the inbox.
Just right click on the table cell where you see the first character of the text, right click and select "view source".
You should be able to see the long text within the HTML source.
Though not a solution but this can be used to test out the alert.
Regards
Gaurav

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.

Alert Long Text

Hi all!
I have a problem when a BPM throws an alert with dynamic text from a control step:
- If the control step have the next text: &var_container&
The long text in the alert inbox is filled with the content of the var_container.
- If the control step have the next text: Message with id &var_container& failed
The long text in the alert inbox is empty...
Thanks in advance,

Message ID is not accessible inside a BPM and hence the problem.
Why is not accessible -> Look at this really interesting thread.

Alert long text not visible

Hello,
I have a problem triggering an alert with dynamic text out of a bpm. The alert is triggered correctly (I can't see any dump in tzhe log files), I can see the alert in my alert inbox, but the long text isn't filled. I'm using SAP Netweaver 2004s SP 9 (SAP Basis 7.00).
Then I tried the same preocedure in a SAP Netweaver 2004 SP 15 (SAP Basis 6.40) with the same settings, and it worked fine. I can see the long message in the alert inbox. The only differnce was, that in 2004s the alert classification 'Webflow Alert' didn't exist, so I had to create it.
Does anybody know, where the problem could be?
Thanks,
Thomas

Hi,
Just check that the length of the message is not more then the required limit. If thats the case it sometimes does not show the message.
Else, just try re-activating that step again by making some dummy chnages.
This problem happens at times when you are using dynamic variables .

XI Alert Text (Modifyinng long text using BADI ALERT_MODIFY_TEXT)

Hello, Has anyone been able to successfully implement the BADI ALERT_MODIFY_TEXT ?
The export parameters of the BADI contains an internal table called CT_LONG_TEXT which I am updating with a simple "hello world" message. However, I cannot see this text inside the long-text field in me Alert Inbox in the RWB.
I am certain that the badi is being invoked (I am inserting an entry to a custom table to ensure that - and also, I have written out the original contents of CT_LONG_TEXT which contains the original long text which I configured in ALRTCATDEF), however, no changes to the CT_LONG_TEXT seems to go through..
Is there anything else I need to do? In my ALRTCATDEF config, I have also tried to use the "Dynamic Text" option but to no avail.
Thanks in advance for your help.

CA Forum: Performance Management and Dashboards
I'll reply to my own post so that others might benefit from the response I got from customer support.
It is possible to use functions in alert text, but the function must be preceeded by #f and followed by %. So to get the example from my previous post working, I used:
#f MetricValue(metric1.id, 0) %
The 'f' is case sensitive by the way.

Container Element in Alert Category

Hi,
Any one can tell me what is the use of container element in Alert Category.
While creating a container variable there is an drop down for Object type.When we go for each of these object type.
When i selected the object type as 'XML object type ' i could be able to see all the abstract interfaces and the fields that are created in the IR.I am able to select that field in the long text tab also.
But the value of the field is not getting reflected when an alert message is triggered.
Am I in a right track or doing anything wrong?Can i directly access this field in the long text?
Regards
Divia

Hi Sreedivia Narath,
Go through this blog for alert configuration by Michal. Its a beautiful blog and explains about the container variables:

Problem using multiline container in Alert Category

Hello, experts!
Could you please suggest me how to solve the following issue.
I have userdefined multiline container MY_CONTAINER with two elements FIELD (stores name of field) and VALUE (stores value of field). This container is filled in runtime by means of BADI extension. So in transaction ALRTDISP filled container looks like:
MY_CONTAINER
 MY_CONTAINER[1]
 FIELD SystemCode
 VALUE 42
 MY_CONTAINER[2]
 FIELD Key
 VALUE 0292383728232
 MY_CONTAINER[3]
 FIELD State
 VALUE 1
 ...and so on. Number of filled elements of container is unknown.
I need to add the contents of this container to Long text of Alert Category in form of:
 SystemCode: 42
 Key: 0292383728232
 State: 1
...and so on.
I added MY_CONTAINER on the Containers tab of my alert category. And in Long text included the following expression:
 &MY_CONTAINER[].FIELD[]&: &MY_CONTAINER[].VALUE[]&.
But in long text it looks like:
 SystemCode Key State ...: 42 0292383728232 1 ...
If the expression is like
 &MY_CONTAINER[].FIELD& - &MY_CONTAINER[].VALUE&
then long text contains only the first element:
 SystemCode: 42.
Does anybody know how to solve this problem?
I think I need to use expressions (something like FOR-loop) for filling Long Text in Alert Categories. Is it possible?

Vika

Hi Experts,
still trying to work out but couldn't understand the behaviour.
If the Long text :
Error: &SXMS_ERROR_CODE& of category &SXMS_ERROR_CAT& was found in a message &SXMS_MSG_GUID& from the service &SXMS_FROM_SERVICE& and Interface &SXMS_FROM_INTERFACE&
to test I am running the program RSALERTTEST
Msg got thru E-mail is 
Error: and category: &SXMS_ERROR_CAT& was found in a message from the service and Interface

And when I change the Long text
Error: &SXMS_ERROR_CODE& and &SXMS_ERROR_CAT& was found in a message &SXMS_MSG_GUID& from the service &SXMS_FROM_SERVICE& and Interface &SXMS_FROM_INTERFACE&
After running the program RSALERTTEST

E-mail msg
Error: and was found in a message from the service and Interface &SXMS_FROM_INTERFACE&
coudn't able to understand why it is displaying the container variable as is in the mail.
checked all the Alert Framework configuration, Everything looks good.
Thank you,
MK

MessageID not getting generated using Alert category created in ESR & BPM

hi All,
We are trying to use Creating Alert Categories in ESR and using them in Integration Processes by refering to the blog below:
/people/gautam.purohit2/blog/2010/04/04/creating-alert-categories-in-esr-and-using-them-in-integration-processes--pi-71-feature
In BPM, we have selected context objects 'LogError.MessageId','LogError.Interface' and specied an xpath for two fields 'Name' & 'Studentid' . In long text i have used container variables correctly while defining alert category.
But while checking the raised alert in RWB -> Alert Inbox, context objects are coming as blank, out of two fields only name is coming, but for Request it is coming as '&Stud entid&'
Do i need to do anything more to get messageid etc in the alert.
Please help!
Thanks,
Mayank

hi,
Now MessageID and interface are coming correctly in the alert raised, but still Request is coming as '&Stud entid&, i checked in PE, container varaibles are set correctly, in alert inbox it is coming as &Stud entid&, we have 4 contianer variables used in Long text, it is coming like this for only one variable.
Any suggestions?
Also how can i define newline in between two words in long text?
Thanks,
Mayank

Container for alert category could not be loaded

Hi All,
I am having very strange issue with container(Variables).
I defined Alert category, created container elements and I was using them in long and short text. They were working fine, but now if I open Alert category and click on container tab, its says: Container for alert category could not be loaded and I dont see container elements that I created before. Same thing happened before and I re-created those container variables. But now I have many Alert categories. Is this an existing issue? or does any body having similar situaltion? Can anybody please provide information on this.
Thank you,
Indrasena

Hi Moorthy,
Thanks for your quick reply . We are on WAS 6.40,SP16, but SAP note 656488 is released on 01.09.2003 for 620, it should have been implemented alreay. Do you think we still need to implement that???
Thank you,

CATS Short Text & Long Text

Hello Experts,
How are "Short Text" and "Long text" used in CATS? I thought that these were supposed to be two separate text fields, but when I make an entry in the Long text field, the value shows up in the Short Text field.
Are these two separate fields? Any ideas how to use both Short Text and Long text and not have the value copied from one to the other?

Hi,
You can Create a rule in Alert Configuration based on the error code under "where did the error occur".
Based on this you can trigger the required Alert category.
