Process Chain Mail Alert

Hi Gurus,
Could anyone please tell me how to set up a mail alert to a list of receipients in case of Process Chain failure.
Thanks in advance,
Best regards,
KT Varkey

1. Right Click on the process.
2. Select Maintain message.
3. Select message for error or success.
4. Enter the email address and select via Internet.
5. Save
But make sure that your basis team has maintained all email config settings (SMTP) in transaction SCOT.
Hope it helps.
Regards

  • Process chain email alert issue

    Hi,
    I'm working with BASIS to get the email alert for Process chains working.
    We've done the following so far:
    1. Created a mail exchange group "SAP BW" with all required email addresses
    2. In the Process chain, created a message variant and assigned the above private distribution list
    3. BASIS configured SMTP in SCOT to reference the correct port and mail path
    4. In SU01, Security added email addresses which were missing earlier for everyone in the distribution list
    5. BASIS scheduled a job to run every 5 minutes to collect and send emails
    I just ran a test process chain and failed a few loads. However, none of us are getting emails in our inbox. What step are we missing? Is there anything else we should be looking at?
    Thanks,
    Pooja.

    few more things to check
    1. Is the mail sent from SO01 working correctly?
    2. Are the mails sent getting accumulated and seen in SCOT transaction queue?
    3. Did you try using Individual addresses instead of distribution list?
    These might help in boiling down to the actual problem though may not solve it. good luck!

  • Process Chain Paging Alerts

    I have created paging alerts in my process chains by right clicking on each process and creating a message, and putting a variant in with the email address and pager number.  I have tested this and it works.  Well, it works for a true failed job.  Here is my problem.  I had a rollup job go red in the process chain because of a lock with the attribute run.  So if you display messages on the chain, it it red.  However, in SM37, the job never canceled, so no alert was ever initiated.  It was like just a process failed, but never the entire job.
    So how can I make sure in situations like this I am notified.  Also, what if for instance an App Server went down on the R/3 side and a BW process chain was canceled.  Since this didn't happen on BW, should an alert be sent?  For us, it didn't get sent.  Thanks,  Keith J

    Dinesh,
    I think I have a couple of problems with that.  First, I have some jobs that take well over 30 minutes (actually 3.5 hours) before they start pulling from R/3.  Second, some of the processes in the process chain are not InfoPackages, but aggregate rollups, attribute/hierarchy change, so I couldn't put a 30 minute time out there.  And from reading some documentation, the timeout that you set in the InfoPackage is for the IDOCs, meaning if an IDOC hasn't moved data in 30 minutes, then it would be considered a failure.  And chances are probably real good that an IDOC will move at least that often, so I am not sure that would help me.  I hope that last one makes sense.
    Thanks,  Keith

  • Process Chain Mail - Return Receip

    We have configured a process chain to send an email if it encounters an error.  When we open the email in Lotus Notes, it sends a "return receipt" back to the server.
    I have changed the "Trans Options" configuration tab SendStatus to "Never".  However, the changes don't stick.
    Does anyone have any experience in configuring in this so it doesn't send return receipts?  Thanks.

    I have the sucess and error messages created and also the Receipts email id's also specified.
    But it doesnt trigger off the success or error messages to the Receipient inbox(Lotus Notes email).
    We tested sending emails from the SAP Office inbox to the clients Lotus Notes inbox (the message waits and flows to the recepient inbox ,we can observer in /trans. SCOT)it does work.But it doesnt work for Process Chain message triggering.
    Plz Let me know if we need or have to check any other settings or if anyone has come across similair siruation wherein you had to trigger of message from BW Process Chain to Lotus Notes email and had to do some additional settings or code writing.Is there a White Paper available for this ?
    Plz let me know.

  • Wierd process chain in BI 2004s(SP 18)

    Dear Experts,
    The following is our process chain design.
    Process chain A contain process chain A1
    Process chain B contain process chain B1
    Process chain Z contain process chain A then B (Must serial!!)
    A1 and B1 have 3 object : StartinfopackageDTP (The connection type is "ALWAYS")
    Every object in A1,B1 has their own message (We click the "Express mail" in recipient tab).
    Questions 1 :
    We faced a problem when A1's infopackage failed with red light.
    Although the connection between Infopackage ad DTP is "ALWAYS", the process hangs.
    So process chain B is being waiting until user repeat or repair the A1's infopackge.
    Notes: the situation doesn't always happen.
    Question 2 :
    We expect to get mail When A1's infopackge failed.
    But if the situation in Q1 happened, we can't get the mail.
    We must monitor the log of the process chain A1 and then SAPBI pops up a message screen.
    The message is about alerting : "Process chain status is changed".
    Until clicking YES we can receive the E-mail.
    Does anyone have idea or solution related to them?
    p.s It always happens when BI and ERP connection failed or infopackage wait until timeout.

    Hi,
    Questions 1 :
    We faced a problem when A1's infopackage failed with red light.
    Although the connection between Infopackage ad DTP is "ALWAYS", the process hangs.
    So process chain B is being waiting until user repeat or repair the A1's infopackge.
    Notes: the situation doesn't always happen.
    Ans:
    Any process type will be triggered in the process chain based on predecessor success / failure status only. DTP is not triggered might be due to Waiting Time Up to Status Incorrect(in Load  monitor -->Settings)  is very less time .So try to change Waiting Time Up to Status Incorrect is more like Hours 5 or Days 1 .
    Question 2 :
    We expect to get mail When A1's infopackge failed.
    But if the situation in Q1 happened, we can't get the mail.
    We must monitor the log of the process chain A1 and then SAPBI pops up a message screen.
    The message is about alerting : "Process chain status is changed".
    Until clicking YES we can receive the E-mail.
    Does anyone have idea or solution related to them?
    Ans:    
    Did you add the Process chain message alerts to every process or all the process types add the OR process for Errors and add the message to OR process . Try set all settings in messaging system of process chain.

  • How to send the status of Process Chain to email address?

    Hi,gurus here.
    We monitor process chains' work status by RSPCM, but it's inconvenient.
    Any method to send process chains' work status via email immediately instead of RSPCM?

    Any process in process chain fails, below will send mail to mail ID that specified
    This can be perfectely done using Tcode ALRTCATDEF.
    1. go to ALRTCATDEF
    2. select classification "Process Chains"
    3. click on display/change
    4. double-click on "error in a process of a process chain"
    5. click on "fixed recipients"
    6. write in your username (you have to maintain your e-mail address in SU01 for that to work)
    7. save
    8. go to your process chain (rspc)
    9. go into edit mode
    10. from the menu, select Process chain -> attributes -> alerting
    11. check "send alerts if errors occur".

  • Sending an Alert e-mail on execution of process chain containing ATTACHMENT

    Hi Experts,
    Need your help on the following,
    We have a scenario where system must send an e-mail to the recipients, on the exection of a Process in the Process Chain.
    This mail should contain a specific text file from SAP-Directory(AL11) as ATTACHMENT or the content of file should be directly read in to the mail, anything will work.

    To send an Alert e-mail when the process chain is executed
    you need to create a message setting while creating the process chain.
    Suppose you want to send a mail after execution of DTP
    then just do the following
    right click on the DTP process in the chain and you will get a option to create message.
    you'll be asked when on what condition you want to send message 1Success 2 error 3always. select as per you r requirement
    select that option and a new window will appear
    in the new window press Reciepent button and add recipients of the mail as per you requiremnt
    press back button and save, then press create message button
    here you can enter the text you want to send, other then that message wil send the status and number od records added and transfered , by default.
    hope this solves your problem ..:)

  • Alerts in process chain

    Hi,
    While adding alerts (sending an email)  in case of process chain failure, what is the recipient type if it is an internal company emails?
    Also, is it possible to send an alert if the process chain didn't run as scheduled?
    Edited by: P R on Jan 7, 2011 5:14 PM

    Hi ,
    1. You need to select the Recepient type as "Internet address".
    2. Yes, we can get the alerts when the Process chain did not trigger as scheduled. This could be done only when the Process chain step parameters are configured on BPM tool.
    We need to maintain some thershold values, so that if that crosses the time limits we will get a mail alert that it was not run.
    Hope this helps.
    Thank you.
