Service Desk - assign support team according to call status

Dear SolMan Service Desk experts,
We have copied the standard Service Desk transaction type to an own transaction type, and have adapted the transaction type and created a customer specific status profile.
Now we want to find out how it is possible to assign a "support team" depending on the status. This means e.g.
when the status is set from "In Process" to "Approved" a different support team "Basis" should be assigned automatically.
when the status is set from "Approved" to "Escalated" a different support team "EscalationMgrs" should be assigned automatically.
This is different to the usual and well know support team determination after call creation.
Q: Is this possible with the PPF and the actions provided in standard?
Q: What needs to be done to implement support team assignment by status?
Q: Is there a description available to achieve the desired result?
Unfortunately I did not find the needful in notes 616946 and 1512895, and also the PFAC rule 13200137 seems not to be helpful as the STATUS is not available in the Container, and as it seems once a support team is assigned the rule does not change the support team anymore. Is that correct?
Best regards,
Peter

Hi Ram,
here are the points to be done, when setting up the automatic support team determination in your Solution Manager system:
You will have to set up your organizational model by using the transaction PPOMA_CRM. Make sure before, that in table T77S0 the value for HRALX HRAC is set to "X", otherwise no Business Partners will be assigned in your org structure!
Then you will have to set up your finding rules by using the transaction PFAC, using the rule AC13200137. When ready, you can simulate rule checking if it is working. The determination is working by using the SAP component.
To the different message numbers taken, when creating a new message: Depending on the way, how the message is created (through the Help-function or using the ta NOTIF_CREATE, resp. CRMD_ORDER) the sequence of creating the two parts of the message (a message in your SolMan system consists of a Basis/ABA-message and a CRM-message) is different. If you create a message via Help, the Basis-message is created first and the number range of the Basis messages defines the number for your message. On the other hand, if you create your message by using NOTIF_CREATE, the CRM-part is getting set up first, so the number range (to be maintained with the ta CRMC_NR_RA_SERVICE) for the CRM messages defines the number for your message.
I hope this short explanation helps you,

  • End User Role for Service Desk in Solution Manager

    Hey,
    I am launching the Service Desk functionality for my End Users. One thing that i want to know of is the role that I should assign my user in Solution Manager to access his message. E.g.
    I have a user 'A' who creates a message from any system in my landscape:Test, QA, Dev or Production. Now this message reaches in Solution Manager and is assigned to a certain Support Team according to the rules I defined. Now the personnel of Support Team needs some feedback from the end user who created the message. For that the user 'A' has to log into Solution Manager, access his message and enter the details which the Support Team requested.
    I want to know that what Role should i give to this user 'A' so that he is able to access ONLY the messages that he created i.e. "Reported by" field showing user 'A'; and is able to view and edit them.
    If I give him the role SAP_SUPPDESK_CREATE and SAP_SUPPDESK_DISPLAY, he is just able to see the messages, all of them, but is not authorized to edit any. Please help me out in this matter as i need a solution asap.

  • Service Desk - Expert Mode - Not all actions are available

    Dear SAP colleagues,
    I have just implemented the Service Desk in our SOLMAN system.
    1. I choose Incident Management
    2. I click on Queries
    3. I click on a ticket (Transaction ID).
    4. I edit the message
    5. When I select Actions, I only have the 4 following options :
        - Send Message to SAP
        - Maintain SAP Logon Data
        - Display SAP Action Log
        - Update SAP Message
    When I consult some demos, there are many differents options available in Actions menu, as, for example :
    - Open System fro SAP
    - Confirm Message to SAP
    - E-Mail to Message Creator (Mail)
    - Print Message
    - Create Change Document
    - Call Solution Manager Diagnostics.
    Is it due to an missing authorizations (roles and profiles) ?

    Dear Rajeev,
    First of all, thanks for your input.
    I have choosen SIVA when I have activated BC Sets.
    Should I activate also BC Sets for transaction type SLFN ?
    1. I have started SPPFCADM and follow your recommandations.
    2. I have choosen CRM_ORDER
    3. I have then click on "Condition Configuration (Transportable Conditions)
    4. There are many entries related to the Support and Service Desk

    I have 5 actions defined -

    Action 02 : Create/Change Basis Message from CRM Procedure
    Action 03 : Send Notification to SAP

Please give solutions ..
    Regards,
    Kumar..

    Hi Kumaresan-
    I'm not sure I fully understand your requirement but I will try to help out. If you are trying to determine / associate the relevant support team according to which component they are responsible for, this might help.
    The determination of the support team is maintained by configuring rule 13200137 in transaction PFAC_RESPO.
    Click on the Responsibilities Tab
    Create your responsibility based on your support team requirements
    Assign the appropriate Support Team, this data will be taken from the settings you have maintained when creating your org chart in ppoma_crm
    Highlight a responsibility and click Change
    In this table you will see an entry for SAP Component, this is where you identify which support team will be determined based on component

  • Service Desk Settings, Automatic Email at status change of messages

    Hello experts,
    I need your help about this:
    I am configuring Service Desk Specific Scenario Settings -> Automatic Email at status change.
    I made the configuration suggested as described SAP Note 691303. Also I configured the status profile SLFN0001 in transaction DNO_CUST01, and the Action profile SLFN0001_STANDARD, both  for the SLF1 (Service basis message), but still when we change the status of messages, the email is not generated in SCOT, overview of send orders.
    I want to clarify that the configuration made for the action of send email was in transsaction SPPFCADM, selected DNO_NOTIF, and push Define Action Profile and Actions, then selected the Action profile SLFN0001_STANDARD for making he ocnfiguration as suggested in note 691303.
    SCOT is correctly configured and working OK.
    Business partners emails are mantained too.
    Thank you very much.
    Hector Longarte

    Hello. Thanks to all of you for your comments. I am answering to your questions below:
    Have you assign proper partner function to every status in action?
    I do not know where can I make this assigment.  I am thinking that this may be the cause. Please I kindly ask you to give me orientation about this.
    Have you defined condition for defined action?
    Yes, the condition was defined thru SPPFCADM. Now, I wonder if this must be configured for CRM_ORDER application as described in note 691303, or for DNO_NOTIF ??
    Have you maintained user deatils on identification tab in BP?
    Yes, the Business partners and emails adresses were correctly mantained.
    The configuration we are talking about and you want to change, is it regarding SLFN (Service Desk Messages) or SLF1 (Basis Service Message)?
    I supose that for Service desk messages we must configure SLFN, and not SLF1. Right?
    In DNO_CUST01, we have SLF1. We have not made any configuration in DNO_CUST04, it is still as original standard. Please let me know if we are right.
    You want to send an aut. email notification when status of SLF1 changes?
    We want to send email notifications to the message creator about the status change of service desk messages.
    Thank you very much.
    Best regards.

  • Service Desk: Support Team Assignment from User not in a Support Team

    I am working on configuring the Service Desk and all has been going pretty well until now.
    The issue surrounds automatic assignment of Support Teams when a ticket is submitted.
    In cases where people assigned to the org structure (PPOMA_CRM) submits a ticket, the support team is assigned correctly (via Rule 13200137 in PFAC_RESPO), but when an end user submits a ticket, it doesn't assign a Support Team.
    I have not assigned end users to the org structure because they are not part of the support team and have been using PPOMA_CRM to only establish the support org structure.
    So the question is what am I missing to configure SolMan 7.0 so tickets from general users are assigned to the appropriate support team?
    Thank you,
    Brian

    Brian,
    It sounds like you did not maintain the identification tab with the ibase for the end users. You have to list every system a user can create tickets for on their identification tab in the General Partner role.
    It should look something like:
    <system ID> <identification number> <client> <userid>
    DEV 1234567890 100 BSMITH
    QAS 1234567890 100 BSMITH
    PRD 1234567890 300 BSMITH
    the very left field's value should be CRM001 for all three.
    You do not have to fill out the employee role for end users for the functionality you desire.
    regards,
    Jason

  • Service desk - SLM 7.0.1 - assign support notification (SFLN)

    Hello everyone,
    I am trying to customize SolMan Service Desk, but there are so many things that I am not able to make such as :
    - creating new messages subjects
    - assigning support notification (SFLN) to a team or person, according to these support notification
    I mean, if a user A connected to the Service Desk chose to create a "Technical problem" support notification, it will be automatically assigned to the technical support team.
    Is it possible ? Do we have to manage Business partners to handle that ?
    Thanks a lot for all your suggestions.
    Regards,

    Hi,
    Yes, it is possible. You need to define rules in transaction PFAC for this.  Check SAP Note 1512895 - Support team determination + e-mail notific. to support team.

  • Service Desk: Support team determination - Action Logs error

    Hello experts,
    I have customized the service desk functionality in Solman 7.0 EHP1 according to SAP help and the various (very helpful blogs from sdn). When I create a message from satelite system the "Support Team" field is already filled with the correct  business partner, but when I look into the ACTIONS tab I see the following error message (red light) "Find support team responsible, when message is created". In the processing log I have the following entries:
    "Processing CRM_DNO_PARTNER_1 Is Started"
    "Action could not be successfully executed".
    Additional no Email is sent to the BP SUpport team even I have customized it accourding to the blog from Tammy Powlas "Service Desk Support Team E-mail Notification".
    When I open the created message in change mode and save the message (without any changes), then the email is sent correctly.
    Can anyone give me a hint, what I did wrong.
    Thanks in advance,
    Thomas

    Hi Thomas,
    When the PDF is generated during the creation of the message, some information is not yet available to the smartform program, so most of the fields are not filled. In order to have the complete PDF, you have to send the e-mail after the document is completely created, which means using the processing time "Processing when saved" (and then you have to open the message and save), or via Job using the Processing time "Processing using selection report", and scheduling the job as mentioned by Cristiano. In this case no e-mail will be created immediately as you wish (I did not use "sent immediately" , but "created immediately", because it also depends on your SCOT job which will send the e-mail). In my case I did not need to send in the e-mail details such as System ID, SAP Component and System details to the Support team, only the message number, priority and description.
    If you decide to schedule the job, create a variant as explained by Cristiano. Enter the Application CRMD_ORDER, Action profile, Action definition if you want to specify which action or actions you want to execute (if you only want to schedule the job for your email to support team action, put this action definition here), Promotion status "0", keep empty field Processing type (do not put INT for e-mail), and select Processing Time "Processing using selection report". Keep dates in blank. Set  "Processing without dialog" on. It's very important that you configure your action to be executed via report, as I said in the beginning, otherwise the job will not work and you will have the "0 actions have been selected" message. Also schedule your job periodically with a very short interval if you have many messages created each hour. It also depends on your SCOT configuration. The CRM action job will only send the e-mails to the queue.
    The business partner assigned to the user that holds the position below the org unit should be entered in the message processor field, but this should not cause any error in the action that determines the Support Team business partner, as this field is correctly determined. Did you configure any other action or BADI to fulfill the message processor automatically? The standard SLFN0001_ADVANCED_FIND_PARTNER action as far as I know will not do it.  I have Solution Manager 7.0 with SP25 and I don't have any error message in the FIND_PARTNER action, it is all green.
    If you did not create yet any action or BADI implementation for the message processor, and if you have only one business partner (person) assigned to your support team, as you described (one Org Unit, with one position and one member), you can do the following:
    - Go to the Access Sequences definition and copy access sequence 0009 (organizational data: employee for an org. unit). In the Individual Accesses change the Source from Department to Support Team.
    - Go to the partner determination procedure and for the SLFN0004 select the access sequence just created.
    This access sequence uses Rule AC10000258 to determine the business partner Employee of an Org Unit.
    Try to create a new message and check if it works. This rule does not work if you have many members below one support team.
    You may also check SAP note [1041455|https://websmp130.sap-ag.de/sap%28bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==%29/bc/bsp/spn/sapnotes/index2.htm?numm=1041455].

    Regards
    Vivek

    Hello Vivek,
    I am assuming that you have created BP for users. In this case right click on position assign Owner(Business partner).
    user under that BP is automatically recognized.
    If you not created BP then you have to activate the integration between business partners and employees by setting the switch HRALX/PBPON to 'ON'
    read the document available at spro>sap solman imp guide>CRM>Master data>Business Partner-->Integration bP-org mgmt->setup integration with org mgmt.

  • Service Desk: Can't find Support Team when creat.message in satellite syste

    Hi all,
    strange thing:
    In service desk I customized the partner determination rule for the support team with the rule AC13200137.
    (In the rule pretty much everything is filled with * )
    a) when creating a message via transaction NOTIF_CREATE within solman itself, the support team can be determined without any problems.
    b) when creating a message in a satellite system via ->Help ->Create Support Message, the message gets created in the solution manager, but the support team could not be determined.
    In the action log for "when message is created, find
    support team responsible" the protocol is red.
    Details of the log:
    - green: Date and time stamp
    - green: Processing CRM_DNO_PARTNER_1 is started
    - red: Rule container does not exist
    - red: Actim could not be successfully executed
    Any idea why this is acting differently ?
    Thanks

    hi,
    It might be because of the buffer synchronization problem , you can try executing the program
    HRBCI_ATTRIBUTES_BUFFER_UPDATE
    in se 38 and see whether the responsiblites that you created are getting updated.Its because of the master data change and some time it take a longer time to get updated in the database .
