Track response of .ICS file(Meeting request) in SAP R/3
Dear Experts,
I am able to send the meeting request to MS-Outlook using the following thread.
[http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/index?rid=/library/uuid/b035a861-5f61-2c10-d086-c4dd779dd253]
When the user opens the .ICS file and accepts the meeting request in MS-Outlook, the MS-Outlook calender gets booked.
Now the requirement is, Once User accepts the meeting request an event should be trigerred in SAP R/3 so as to track the User response. Is there any BADI/API s available which can be used to achieve this?
Regards,
Vaishali.
Hi,
Triggering the event is the easy part. That will be just pure ABAP development.
Your problem is that how can you call your function/method (or whatever) from the Outlook (or from Exchange server). So, you should really try to investigate the possible modification or enhancement possibilities of the Echange server - and this is not really an SDN issue at all (of course if you are lucky, someone could notice this thread and help). If you find a way to add some kind of "modification" to the Exchange server (for example you could find a way to call a web service always when the meeting request is accepted), then you can easily build the necessary web service around your ABAP function.
Another approach could be that you try to utilize the possible Exchange server web service API. For example it seems that there is some kind of availibility service available, which you could use to find out the user's availibility (I am not sure though that is it possible to see whether the user has accepted the meeting request or not). Anyhow, if you find out a way for this, you could call the web service from your ABAP system to find out the corresponding information from Exchange server.
Good luck.

Karri

Meeting Request from SAP to Outlook.
Dear all,
I am using the following link to send the meeting request to MS-Outlook

'not supported calendar message.ics'
I am able to open this attachment as an appointment, but the details(time and all_ which I have passed from the program is not coming in the appointment.
Please help me inthis regard.
*1) Why I am getting the attahment as 'not supported calendar message.ics' ??*
2) Currently I am getting one mail with an attachmentcwhich is the appointment. While openeing the mail, I want to get the meeting request directly also.

You have to implement note 1378037.

Interwise meeting request from SAP.
hi,
Could anybody help me in finding the API/program to create an interwise meeting request ??
thanks in advance!
p.s. useful replies will certainly be awarded.Hi,
We're using the Client-base groupware integration.
After having created an appointment within CRM, it is replicated to Outlook but there is not the possiblity to accept or reject the appointment.
Do you know why ?
Is there another way to create Meeting Request from CRM ?
And why an attendee can only be a CRM user ?
Thanks a lot,

I can't import .ics meeting requests to iCal (currently using iCloud)
I can't import .ics meeting requests to iCal (currently using iCloud). Every time I drop it in or double click or import it it just doesn't show up. Is there a way round this or a setting I've not set up correctly?
Greetings Gillian,
Try dragging one of these invites out of Mail to the desktop. It should show up with a ".ics" extension as you indicate in your post. Double-click this file and see if iCal launches and offers you the invite in the lower left corner (or anywhere else for that matter).
If nothing happens when you double-click the file from the desktop try the following:
__Create a new user account on the Mac: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.6/en/8235.html
__Put the .ics file you dragged to the desktop into Macintosh HD > Users > Shared
__Log out of the current user and login as the new user you created
__Go to Macintosh HD > Users > Shared in the new user and drag the .ics file to the desktop
__Double-click the file on the desktop and see if iCal opens and offers to add the invite
Let us know the results. -
Requesting user capability to "Save Response as PDF File w/form design intact"
Love the new admin "Save Response as PDF File with form design intact" feature, but we really need for our indivual users (i.e. the ones filling out the form) to be able to do this. Our director still needs a hard copy of the form for manual signatures and those who pay by check. Our committee chairs use the online data (from excel file) but we also need the user to print a hard copy to physically turn in to the director. A .pdf file with form design intact that our user could print out and turn in would be helpful.
Hi,
We have an "Ideas" page where you can add or vote on feature ideas:
http://forums.adobe.com/community/formscentral?view=idea
I am pretty sure this idea has been added for you to vote on, but I didn't find it to link to. I know it is a popular request though so if you need to add a new idea click "Create an idea" under "Actions" in the top right, I am sure it will get a lot of votes..

How do I see meeting requests but not responses to meetings arranged by my delegates?
Hello
I am surprised that I can't see this precise question as it is stopping the whole executive of my company from using outlook delegation in Exchange 2010 and in fact they use email between PAs rather than calendar requests to manage all meetings. This
is because the exec don't want to see any responses to meetings arranged by delegates.
1. I want to see meeting invites that are sent to me so I can decide whether to attend or not.
2, My delegates set up many meetings on my behalf and I don't want to see any responses to those meetings - my delegate deals with those, not me.
Can this be achieved?
I know I can avoid seeing any meeting requests and responses, but that is not what I want! I want not to see responses to meetings arranged by my delegates on my behalf.
This is a real obstacle to adopting calendars in my organisation
thanks!Thank you for the suggestion. We do have several other email systems in use but on the whole, as CIO (and, by the way, female) I've moved tens of thousands of users to 365 and try to move people there in general. However, it seems silly or inept of MS not
to provide this simple functionality. I have seen this be an issue in more than one organisation.
The only solution seems to be for the PAs to work harder or for the Execs to do as I do (i.e. move lots of pointless meeting invites into a junk folder - because of the poor interface with iOS it is risky to delete an MS meeting response as it may vanish
from your phone). You would think it worth MS considering how people actually want to delegate. -
Why i can't see table, image, attacth files in meeting request mail.
Hi, I'm Narongdech
i have a little question in outlook 2013. Why i can't see table, image, attacth files in meeting request mail. i try make a new meeting request for my partner. but them can't see new mail in the correct format.
below,This is a image in my outlook 2007. i try to make this format. Please Help me, and let me know that.
Thank you.Hi Narongdech,
What’s your Exchange server version? I have tested to send a meeting request to my colleague with a table, a PNG picture and a word attachment in my Outlook 2013 with Exchange 2010 environment. And it can be viewed well.
Please check whether the issue happens to all Outlook 2013 users or some specific ones. We can close Outlook and send a meeting request with pictures and attachments in OWA to have a test. If the OWA test returns everything is OK, the issue may be related
to Outlook client. Please run Outlook in safe mode and disable all related mail software to check whether the issue persists.
Thanks,

Transferring Outlook meeting notices (ics files) to iCal
Hello,
When I receive an outlook meeting notice in Mail the ics file does not show up as an attachment. If I look at the same email in my web account the ics meeting notice shows up and can be downloaded and added to ical with no problems. Is there a way to get the ics file to show up as an attachment in Mail or to have it load in iCal properly? Thanks for the help.
DougIs there a solution for this problem. Since I am using Mail I have the same problem. As long as I used Eudora this problem didn't occur.
TIA,

Date format in meeting request responses appears to be hardcoded to US format
Hi
When a room mailbox declines a meeting request that exceeds the booking window in days a response like this is returned.
The end date of this series of repeating meetings is too far in the future. This resource can only be scheduled up to 180 days in advance. The end date
must be before 2/7/2011.
The date returned appears to be hardcoded in US format (M/d/yyyy). I need this to be NZ date format (d/MM/yyyy). How can I accomplish this?
Thanks
OlliFWIW, we are also having the same problem despite the room being set to the correct regional settings. Our environment is Exchange 2010 SP2

I guess, given the lack of response from MS, that it is in fact hard coded and cannot be changed. C'mon MS, can you atleast confirm this is the case?
Thanks guys

ICloud sends out hundreds of old meeting request responses
After I signed up to iCloud, it proceeded to send out hundreds of very old meeting request responses. Some 18 months old.
How do I stop this and find out why it is happening?The same thing happened to me. It has the potential to be embarassing as it sends emails to clients forold meetings. The emails are also being sent from my apple account emailrather than my work email. Very annoying.
I have no idea why this is occurringand can only think that it must be a glitch with iCloud?
The other strange thing is that I had already disabled calendar syncing on the day I began using IOS 5, after the initial sync. -
Trying to send a meeting request in Outlook 2013 Error: "The meeting is not int he calender folder for this account. responses to this meeting will not be Tallied.
Please let me know what should I do?
I have set the account as default what should be my next step?Hi,
Please try the following points to narrow down the issue:
1. Please check whether the default Calendar folder is checked when you created the meeting request and sent it out.
2. Please check whether there is any shared calendar opened in your Outlook and the meeting request is created on behalf of the shared calendar instead of your own calendar.
3. Create a new Outlook profile and create a test meeting request to have a try.
Additionally, here is a similar thread for your reference:
