Managing Email/Fax "Reception notifications" in SAP R/3

Hi SAP devs,
  one of my clients is interested in creating a Workflow for PS in SAP R/3 4.6C that will automate the sending of eMails and Faxs when certain activities (in networks via CN22) are confirmed. The process is as follows: The activity is confirmed via CN22 and then an eMail or Fax (depending on the partner) is sent to the partner. The Workflow then goes on "stand-by" and waits for a confirmation of reception for that eMail/Fax. If after 2 business days no confirmation was received, a workitem is sent the the SAP Inbox of a group. I wanted to know if there is any technology currently available in R/3 that permits the reception of the confirmation and determins which WF the confirmation is for.
Thanks for your help
PS: sorry if it's not really clear, I tried to translate it as best I could from french.

Just to add some clarification to my problem, the sending of eMail/Fax part using the WF I have no problems with, but the reception of the confirmation notification (that the eMail was read by the user or the fax was received by the target fax) is the part we are not sure about. Basically, there can be about 150 WFs on stand-by each waiting for a notification and when one is received, how can the correct WF be told that a notification was received. This is my issue, not the WF process part.
I hope this is clearer about my issue.
Thanks for the help

  • SAP Work Manager 6.0 - Creating notification on mobile device (customizing the default Start and End date)

    Dear all,
    When I create a notification in SAP Work Manager 6.0, the notification gets created in the back-end with Start Date equal to Current Date + 1 day and End Date equal to Current Date + 3 days.
    Can you advise where I can customize this behaviour, so that the Start Date is for example equal to the Current Date and End Date being 14 days in the future? Is this something that would need to be configured in Agentry Editor or within the ABAP stack?
    Many thanks for your support.

    Hi Jason,
    We went this route and identified the initial values, and tried to modify those.
    No impact though, as if those values are being overwritten elsewhere (whatever value we set, no change on the backend).
    Please see the attachments with screenshots of Agentry Editor.
    Many thanks.

  • 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?

  • Work Manager 6.0 Push Notification not working

    Hi All,
    I have configured Standard Work Manager 6.0 application and now I am trying to configure Work Manager 6.0 Push Notification.
    I have completed all Post Installation(optional and required) which are mentioned in Standard product document.
    I am getting new work order entries in /SYCLO/PSH01 and /SYCLO/PSH02. After that Agentry server is also calling /SYCLO/PM_DOPUSHWORKORDER_GET Function Module and /SMERP/CL_PM_PUSHWORKORDER_DO Class Handler.
    I am getting result in final export table(ls_mdo_output_vals) of /SMERP/CL_PM_PUSHWORKORDER_DO.
    My problem is still I am neither getting this work order into ATE nor push notification message.
    When I went to Syclo Admin panel, status of the push notification is also NEW.
    I have configured 8282 port in [HTTPXML-2] section of Agentry,ini and Syclo Config panel outbound trigger.
    Kindly let me know what can be an issue?

    I noticed the following in your Backend-Java.log.
    ~~~~~~~~error 1~~~~~~~~
    2014/06/27 17:37:36.947: Error in initializing the StepHandler from the ini file or SAP configurations (com.syclo.sap.component.serviceorder.stephandler.ServiceOrderRemovePushStepHandler). Please check the JavaBE.ini file. java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.syclo.sap.component.serviceorder.stephandler.ServiceOrderRemovePushStepHandler
    ~~~~~~~~end~~~~~~~~~
    <-- Make sure this is corrected. For some reason your java code is not being detected during start up. Check your Java folder in the root directory of your Work Manager 6.0 to see if it can be seen.
    Based on history of Support tickets the following SAP Note is mandatory to make Push work:
    1. Do mandatory SAP Note: 1954444

    3. SCN Push threads that may help: http://scn.sap.com/thread/3494003
    See if any of the comment above will work for you.
    4. After you tried the above and it didn't work for you to try the latest SMP 2.3 SP04 version and let us know. This is for what I can see on the logs.

    The log comment above is stating that the push is trying to be sent to the PDA/handheld but it does not know where to send it to.  This is proven from your backend setup and when you have no errors in your push retry.
    The last line above is still a mystery to me as there are lots of upgrades with patches and SMP 2.3 SP# and with the userid is not found (especially when it states it is not in per-user mode: cannot determine user for data) then the Agentry Server cannot determine where to send the push to.   Hopefully somebody in this thread knows this.

  • ERS Output email/fax to different ID (CONSNUMBER) in vendor master

    Hi Guru,
    I am just wondering if there is a way to change the ERS output to different email/fax ID than the default one in vendor master.
    As a default in SAP, the Purchasing documents ie. PO, RFQ and ERS outputs will be sent to default emial/fax (of course when we set it up to send via fax = 2 or email = 5). The problem here is that SAP will pick up default email/fax in vendor master, however, our business would like to have an ability to send ERS outputs to different email/fax ID (CONSNUMBER).  Currently it is only sent to FLGDEFAULT address.
    If we change the default, it will change all other documents as well. We only want to differentiate ERS output and leave other docs (PO, RFQ) to use default setting.
    Is there any enhancement spot or exit that can help achieve this?
    Please advise.
    Cheers

  • How to configure dynamic email address for notification

    All,
    I have a problem in assigning dynamic email address for notification activity in a bpel process, I want to assign a user from a user-properties file. How do I achieve this. I tried using the users in System-jazn-data.xml file, but if i add a email attribute to the existing users it doesn't show up. I am sure there should be an easier way of using identity service and adding attributes to the jazn realm user, I might be missing something.
    I cannot have it as part of the payload the only way is to use identity service.
    Thanks,
    Chitra

    Hi James,
    Thanks for the reply. Its solved now. For anybody if interested you can set the dynamic email address either i) having it as part of payload - In this case use the xpath to query the payload varaible ii) use identity service - follow the following steps
    1.Create a user in Application enterprise manager/also you can use a existing account, if u are creating a new one assign the correct role
    2. In either case edit the user-properties.xml(bpel/system/services/config) file for the corresponding user and add an attribute called email
    3. Bounce the server for this changes to take effect
    4. In the notification properties in the to address use ids:getUserProperty and pass the attribute name

  • Imple mail v/s Email Fax functionality in message output determination

    Can someone tell me what is the difference between simple mail functionality v/s email fax functionality in output determination ...
    i have  a reqmt from client as follows
    1. A document neeeds to be sent to multiple email addresses and multiple faxes.
    also the document that we sending thru mail /fax shud be stored in oyr SAP system for records .
    Distribution lists is an option , but can i also use this functionality to send document via faxes ..but distribution list can only be set up for simple mail functionality ..
    Second , i donthave an option of maintaining group email id in master eg vendor master as , this functionality if sending the Agency Business documnet (ABD) to multiple email address is only for ABD ...
    However other documents like PO will be required to be sent to only someone in specific...
    Regards ,
    Madhavi solanki

    Hi,
    If you are using Simple mail functionality you can provide multiple mail ids (to whom you want to send the mail) during condition record maintenance.
    Where as in case of email - for ex: to send PO to vendor via email, you can maintain the output medium as email & system will pick the email id from the vendor master.
    Hope its clear.
    Thanks & Regards,

  • User not receiving emails regarding approval notifications

    Hi,
    SRM system has been upgraded to 5.0.
    User is not receiving emails regarding Approval notifications. However, the user is able to view the SCs pending for his approval in his approval list.
    I checked the transmission of the emails, the approval notifications are sucessfuly sent and the email of the user is correctly maintained. I tried resending the emails, and the user didnt receive emails even then.
    Could be please advice what could the error.
    Thanks
    Hemanth

    Hello Hemanth Kumar,
    If approval mail:
    - is correctly generated,
    - you can see it in SOST transaction,
    - request status in SOST is OK,
    this means SAPconnect is working fine, so your problem does not come from SAP.
    You have to check your STMP gateaway and your mail server.

  • UWL Notification and SAP Inbox

    Dear All,
    I have developed a leave application in webdynpro abap and my requirement is to send notification in the UWL.
    I have selected the activity as Email then the notification is coming in UWL but when i select the activity as INBOX it is only coming to SAP Inbox not in the UWL.
    Please Advice..
    regards
    Mustafa

    The notifications will not appear in UWL by default. You need to deploy a Sonic connector to the portal in order to display the notifications in the UWL notifications tab.
    Another option could be to replace the send mail step in workflow as a decision step. Just write the same message to the decision step, and put there one button "Confirm" (or whatever). Then display these decision tasks in UWL. It will not be the same functionality but very close, and then you can avoid installing the Sonic connector.

  • Respond to Service Manager emails

    Hello all. I have service Manager setup to email users when a incident is created but I cant seem to figure out how to set it so so that when a user responds to the service manager email it will update the ticket. 
    Same with with the request information feature. Service Manger sends the email but if the user responds, it doesn't update the ticket. 

    Hi Make sure to have the Incident Number between bracket when you reply: [IR1234] you may configure your notification template to use the same method in order to update the incident when the reply received.
    Also you have to make sure that the Exchange connector is functioning.

  • Reception notification in Mail.

    I have a question about receiving an reception notification a bit like you can do in Entourage. It would be nice to know if an e-mail was received and/or opened by my recipient. I looked everywhere but can't seem to find such a feature.
    Thank's for your help.
    Yvon.

    Hello Flyyvon.
    have a look at [this previous post of mine|http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=7244096&#7244096] (click the link). It boils down to this: In a Terminal enter
    defaults write com.apple.mail UserHeaders '{"Return-Receipt-To"="[email protected]"; "Disposition-Notification-To"="[email protected]"; }'
    and substitute [email protected] with your email address. Note that read receipts will only work, if the recipient's Mail client supports receipts as well.

  • Email and sms notifications

    One feature I would like to see on the iPhone is the ability to control its behavior based on external factors.
    For example,
    - At night I want my phone to shut up. No email or sms notifications, and to only ring if call is from someone I care about.
    - When I have wifi I want it to check for emails frequently, but when I am using 3G I want to check manually (my SP charges for email traffic)
    As a result, I am forced to choose the least common denominator - always check email manually, and never notify on new email or sms.
    As far as I can tell, there is no way to do this automatically (sure, I can go into settings each time, but what a pita).
