Many of our form submissions do not generate an email notification.

Any ideas why about 30% of our form submissions do not generate an email notification? We use FormsCentral for a rental reservation form and we have lost several rentals recently because we never knew about the reservations. We hate to abandon all of the work we put into making this form work so any help is appreciated. Otherwise, we will leave Adobe very soon.

Hi,
The E-mail template is actually works as an HTML or CSS page. You need to use the HTML/CSS formats to send these values in the format as you want. Use <tags> to do the formating of Email template.
Use function to store multiple values and thn use them into Email
I hope this will help.
Thanks~ Giriraj Singh Bhamu

Form link does not appear in email notification.

Form link does not appear in email notification
We have added a custom notification to the OM workflow process. The notification itself has a form attribute which provides a link to the sales order form. This works fine when notification is viewed via worklist - notifications within apps. The link does not appear in the email notification.
Is there any alternate way to provide a form link to Oracle Applications form that can be accessed via email (after logging into application, if the user is not logged in).
Thanks

Similar functionality is available in PO and Req Approval process. Can you take a look at the PO Approval Process workflow? I remember the email notification does show the link, which is a URL link and has parameters in it. This functonality provides where the approvers need to modify the document which is requested to be approved. So they can click on the link, modify and close and approve if necessary.
Are you expecting them to modify the same or you just want to show query only screen?
There is a webpage available to see order information called Order Information (user Order Information User resp). You can send parameters to that webpage and that should show login page opening up a seperate session with all the parameters in the URL. Once logged in that should show order information.
Thanks

SharePoint Foundation 2013 installed on Windows Server 2012 not sending out email notification

I have a server where i installed SP Foundation 2013 on top of Windows Server 2012. I have configured the SMTP as well as the outgoing SMTP in Central Administration
of SharePoint. When i create an alert on a document library, its did not sent any email notification on the changes made to the document in the document library. So, i created a workflow to send out email using SPD2013. The workflow run, but it cannot sent
out email with error saying that outgoing email is not configured correctly. I have checked with another server which i installed SP foundation 2013 on top of Windows Server 2008 R2 - its sending out email just fine using same configuration and outgoing SMTP.
I need help to resolve this issue or at least the cause of the problem.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Try below:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/13771.troubleshooting-steps-for-sharepoint-alert-email-does-not-go-out.aspx
Go to Central Admin ---->Operations----->outgoing email settings and verify that SMTP server is mentioned correctly
2) Test the connectivity with the SMTP server.
In order to do that follow these steps:
Open cmd
telnet <SMTP server name> 25 ( We connect smtp server to the port 25)
you should see a response like this 220 <servername> Microsoft ESMTP MAIL Service, Version: 6.0.3790.3959 ready at date and time
Beware that different servers will come up with different settings but you will get something
If you dont get anything then there could be 2 possible reasons, either port 25 is blocked or
the smtp server is not responding.
For testing response from your server
For testing response say ehlo to it.
Type :
ehlo <servername>
output:
250 <servername> Hello [IP Address]
Now a test mail can be sent from that SharePoint server.
Now we need to enter the From address of the mail.
Type :
mail from: [email protected]
output:
250 2.1.0 [email protected]….Sender OK
It's time to enter the recepient email address.
Type : rcpt to: [email protected]
output:
250 2.1.5 [email protected]
Now we are left with the data of the email. i.e. subject and body.
Type : data
output:
354 Start mail input; end with <CRLF>.<CRLF>
Type:
subject: this is a test mail
Hi
This is test mail body
I am testing SMTP server.
Hit Enter, then . and then Enter.
output:
250 2.6.0 <<servername>C8wSA00000006@<servername>> Queued mail for delivery
Type: quit
output:
221 2.0.0 <servername> Service closing transmission channe
3) Check alerts are enabled for your web application
verify if the windows timer service is running or not.
Run this stsadm command to check that
Stsadm.exe -o getproperty -url http://SharePoint-web-App-URL -pn alerts-enabled
This should return <Property Exist="Yes" Value="yes" />
If you don’t get this, Enable alerts by:
stsadm.exe -o setproperty -pn alerts-enabled -pv "true" -url http://SharePoint-web-App-URL
If its already enabled, try turn off and turn on it back.
4) Check the Timer job and Properties
Go to
MOSS 2007: Central Administration > Operations > Timer Job Definitions (under Global Configuration)
In SharePoint 2010: Central Administration > Monitoring > Review Job Definitions
Check whether the "Immediate Alerts" job is enabled for your web application. check these properties:
job-immediate-alerts
job-daily-alerts
job-weekly-alerts
stsadm.exe -o getproperty -url "http://Your-SharePoint-web-App-URL" -pn job-immediate-alerts
The expected output is:
<Property Exist="Yes" Value="every 5 minutes between 0 and 59"/>.
If you don’t get this, run the following command to set its value.
stsadm.exe -o setproperty -pn job-immediate-alerts -pv “every 5 minutes between 0 and 59" -url http://Your-SharePoint-web-App-URL
5) Check whether the account is subscribed for alerts and it has a valid email account. This should be the first thing to check if the problem persists for some users not for all.
6) Then check if at all those users have at least read permission for the list. Because the first mail should go out for every user without security validation but the next ones won't be delivered unless the user has at least read
permission.
7) If it is happening for one user, can also try to delete and re add the user in the site.
8) Most importantly , you should try this one.
Run this SQL query to the content db < Select * from Timerlock>
This will give you the name of the server which is locking the content database and since when.
In order to get rid of that lock
Go to that server which is locking the content db and then restart the windows timer service.
within some time it should release the lock from content db, if not then at the most stop the timer job for some time
Once the lock will be released then try to send some alerts
You will surely get the email alert.
I found this is the most probable reason for alert not working most of the time. We should start troubleshooting with above steps before coming to this step for any alert email issue but from step 1 to step 7 are best for new environments or new servers.
If the issue is like this ,alert was working before and suddenly stopped working without any environmental change then above conditions in step 1-7 should be ideally fine.
Even after this if it is not working, then you can try these few more steps too
9) Try re-registering the alert template:
stsadm -o updatealerttemplates -url http://Your-SharePoint-Web-App-URL -f "c:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\12\TEMPLATE\XML\alerttemplates.xml" -LCID 1033
10) Try to clear the configuration cache
If this helped you resolve your issue, please mark it Answered

Not getting any email notification after configuration

Hi
I had configured in portal for E-Mail notification by using the following link .
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp2004/helpdata/en/5a/d089b338769f40a3a86ea938701c3f/frameset.htm
but still i am not getting any email notification when i reset or lock the user .
Can any one tell me what should be done for that.
Thanks
shashank

Hi shashank,
you referenced the configuration for the collaboration service e-mail transport.
This is needed for instance for the collaboration rooms invitation.
For notifications about user management you will have to configure e-mail notification in the UME.
See:

When generating Navigator Form, CG$STARTUP_MODE not generated

Hi all,
We are using Desesigner 6.4.2 and Headstart, and I try to generate a Navigator Form. In this case, the generator does not generate the parameter CG$STARTUP_MODE.
Running the fmx, an error message pops up saying: FRM-47023: No such parameter named cg$startup_mode exists in form ...
This error is raised during the PRE-FORM trigger.
When using the the preference set QMS65_DEBUG_MODULE, this error does not occur. This convinces me that there is a bug in the delivered Headstart libraries.
Thanks in advance,
Joep Hendrix

All,
Tonight I added the following text to bug 2309202 in the bug database on this topic:
start *************************************************************************************
Suggested workaround for this bug does not work because of another bug: 2391990. When the cg$startup parameter is not generated, all user defined arguments at module will not be generated neither.
Since it is not possible to generate a parameter cg$startup_mode into a form by adding it to the template form in advance (OFG ignores template form parameters starting with CG$), the only workaround for the problem with cg$startup mode seems to be to make the headstart library code robust for the lack of this parameter, using built in qms$errors.add_suppress_message('FRM-47023').
However, the problem is caused by OFG (bug 2391990), not headstart.
end *************************************************************************************
Also I logged bug 2391990 on Oracle Form Generator, that is referred to. Bug text for this bug:
start *************************************************************************************
BUG 2391990 - OFG GENERATOR DOES NOT GENERATE PARAMETERS FOR ARGUMENTS IN READ ONLY FORMS
Since release 4.2 of Designer 6.5, form generator sometimes does not generate
parameters for user defined arguments. On top of that, parameter
cg$startup_mode is also not generated in this case.
This makes the suggested workaround for bug 2309202 useless.
How to reproduce
================
Use designer (I used some wizards) to
- create a table definitaion named TEST
- add columns (id number(10) not null, name (30))
- add a primary key on column id.
- create a module named TESTMOD (Oracle Forms)
- add a module component named TEST, insert=no, update=no, delete=no
- add a table usage on table TEST
- add bound items for columns id and name display length 10 resp. 30 and
properties insert=no, update=no for both columns
- add an argument p_test at module level, varchar2, length=50, default
value=test
- generate the module for the 1st time. Notice that parameters cg$startup_mode
and p_test are generated.
- now, change the display length of bound item id from 10 to 15
- generate the module again. Notice that parameters cg$startup_mode and p_test
are -NOT- generated!
- change the bound item length back from 15 to 10 for id
- Set the module component properties insert=yes, update=yes, delete=yes (do
not touch the insert/update property at bound item level)
- generate the module again. Notice that in this case the parameters
cg$startup_mode and p_test are NOT generated
- Set the bound item properties insert=yes, update=yes for id and name
- generate the module again. Now the parameters are correctly generated.
The behaviour seems intermittently, but is reproducible every time the
specification is exactly the same as before.
The above scenario was tested with AND without making use of the Headstart
template package set. This did not affect the outcome: in both cases the
errors did occur.
It is not possible anymore to rely on the correct generation of the argument
and named passed value mechanism of OFG.

Workflow did not trigger the email notification to approver inbox

Hi SAP Gurus,
SRM 5.0
Extended Classic Scenario
CCM 2.0
Query : Work Flow triggers the professional purchaser PP in approval previw of SC but there is no email sent to the PP inbox.
No email notification is sent to the Professional purchaser inbox.
Can any one advice on this to locate the error.
Regards,
Jayoti

Many thanks all Specially Sravanan & Laurent
The issue has been resolved now . The problem was RFC Configuration was not setup for workflow in SWU3.
Problem : Email was not triggering in professional purchaser and approver inbox even though we can see I the approval preview screen at the portal
Solution : The work item step was not generating for Agent determination.
In Automatic Workflow Customization ( SWU3 ), Configure RFC Destination under Maintain Runtime Environment was not enabled.
Basis Team ran Perform Automatic Workflow Customizing button situated adjacent to Execute button. And the status for Configure RFC Destination changed from Red cross to Green Tick.
In Automatic Workflow Customization ( SWU3 ) -> Maintain Runtime Environment -> Configure RFC Destination
There were some more options below were in Crossed red status :-
We selected the particular step below and Right Click -> Auto- Customizing
1)     Schedule Background Job for Missed Deadlines
2)     Schedule Background Job for Work Items with Errors
3)     Schedule Background Job for Condition Evaluation
4)     Schedule Background Job for Event Queue
5)     Schedule Background Job for Event Queue

Deferred Task --- Variables not displaying in "Email Notification"

Hi,
there have been quite a lot of postings here regarding the issue of Deferred Tasks.
I created a Deferred Task, and it is working perfectly. My deferred task is supposed to send an email notification on a pre-set date.
The Email is being sent as it should.
Just one problem : the "variables" / "attributes" of the particular User are not being displayed in the body of the email.
The "Email Notification" is supposed to say something like : "*This is to notify you that the account for user Michael Jackson has been updated. Next update will occur on blah-blah-blah"*
In other words, the body of the email should display the attributes : FIRSTNAME, LASTNAME, NEXT-DATE, etc, etc
I input these attributes in the body of the email as follows : $firstname, $lastname, etc, etc, etc
Furthermore, I made sure to DECLARE these variables at the beginning of the Email Template, as follows :
*<EmailTemplate name='Send Notification' displayName='Send Notification' creator='Configurator' createDate='1258045088776' lastModifier='Configurator' lastModDate='1259051622181' lastMod='1' repoMod='1259051624770' smtpHost='$(smtpHost)' fromAddress='[email protected]' toAddress='[email protected]' authEnabled='$(authEnabled)' userId='$(userId)' password='$(password)' ssl='$(ssl)' port='$(port)'>*
*<Variable name='firstname'>*
*<select>*
*<ref>user.global.firstname</ref>*
*</select>*
*</Variable>*
*<Variable name='lastname'>*
*<select>*
*<ref>user.global.lastname</ref>*
*</select>*
*</Variable>*
Apparently, there is something I am not doing correctly. But, I can't figure out what it is.
Any tips would be welcome.
Thanks.

Email templates are slightly different in how they reference variables. Here's what I do in one of my deferred tasks. Notice the arguments in the action and the way the email template references those arguments, specifically the eventDate, accountId, method and eventtime arguments. The other variables are either filled in by IDM's configuration or they resolve to blank or empty strings.
Action to call the notify process from my deferred task:
<Action id='1' process='Notify'>
    <Argument name='template' value='My Email Template'/>
    <Argument name='from' value='%%FROM_ADDRESS%%'/>
    <Argument name='to' value='%%TO_ADDRESS%%'/>
    <Argument name='eventDate'>
        <ref>eventdate</ref>
    </Argument>
    <Argument name='accountId'>
        <ref>accountId</ref>
    </Argument>
    <Argument name='method'>
        <s>create</s>
    </Argument>
    <Argument name='eventtime'>
        <ref>eventtime</ref>
    </Argument>
</Action>The email template:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<!DOCTYPE EmailTemplate PUBLIC 'waveset.dtd' 'waveset.dtd'>
<EmailTemplate
id="#ID#EmailTemplate:MyEmailTemplate"
name='My Email Template'
smtpHost='$(smtpHost)'
htmlEnabled='false'
authEnabled='$(authEnabled)'
userId='$(userId)'
password='$(password)'
ssl='$(ssl)'
ignoreCert='$(ignoreCert)'>
<subject>Processing $(method) $(accountId)</subject>
<body>
Processing $(method) account $(accountId) on $(eventDate) $(eventtime) is complete.
</body>
<MemberObjectGroups>
    <ObjectRef type='ObjectGroup' id='#ID#All' name='All'/>
</MemberObjectGroups>
</EmailTemplate>

Need to include invoice note in workflow email notification

Hi,
I need to include the notes entered by user in invoice notes tab while parking the invoice
when the workflow is triggered , workitem is created for the purchase personnel and the email notification for his workitem should contain the text written by the finance person in notes tab of the invoice while parking the document
I found out the table where the name of this text for the invoice is stored. Its STXH. The text name is invoice number and fiscal year
I created workflow element invoicetext and concatenated invoice number and fiscal year in it and passed it to the task of the workitem.
I put the following statement in the description of the workitem as per the entries in table STXH.
/: INCLUDE &INVOICENOTE& OBJECT RBKP ID 0001
but the text is not showingup in the description of the task when the workflow is instantiated. I also checked the funcion module READ_TEXT, all parameters are correct.
Could you please advice me what could be the problem ?
thanks
R

Hello Rita,
Prior to the Mail step, use an activity step in workflow by calling a method.. in that method use READ_TEXT and get the required value into a container element and pass it back to Workflow, then you will be able to use INCLUDE to add that container element to your body of the mail.
Try the above process and if not we can look for other options.
Thanks,
Sudhir.

Can not open forwared email notifications

Some users can not open the workflow email notifications forwarded by another user, some users can. Anything particular that I should look into? We have 2 middle tiers.
Thanks in advance!

Is there an error message associate to this? Is this with the e-mail notification or with worklist notification?

Forms - submit button not working

A client asked me to create an eflyer with a registration form included to be emailed out. I added form fields to the form page and an email submit button. Works fine on my Mac - opens Entourage correctly addressed and with the xfdf file attached. Tested on Parallels Desktop running Windows XP Pro and this seemed to work too. However when my client tested it on her PC, when she clicked on the submit button nothing happened. It works for her on the web but understandably she want's it to work when people receive the PDF as an attachment to an email. She uses Outlook as her email client.
Any thoughts? Many thanks.

Mike
Thanks for your comment. I've sent a new PDF to the client with the extended rights turned on and this still doesn't work, as you thought. I know I've read about how unreliable emailing PDF forms can be but I wanted a simple solution on a document that my client wants to email to her contacts. Maybe it's just not a good idea to start with though you'd think that seeing as how adobe have added the feature it might just work! When I tried on Windows running on my Mac when I clicked send it asked me whether I wanted to use local or web-based email which implied you could use either? (I don't have an email client currently set up under windows as I only use it for opening the odd PC only file that clients send me which is I guess why it asked the question rather than chaining straight into an email window).
I'm attaching the document in question. The form is on page 3.
Many thanks for your support
