Trigger email based on change in sharepoint list

Hello,
i have uploaded an access web database to SharePoint. i need to trigger an email whenever there is a change in the table of the database. kindly help how do i go ahead doing it.
Thanks in advance.
William

Hi William,
How did you upload the Access web database to SharePoint? I am wondering whether you import the Access web database table into SharePoint by creating a list.
If yes, you can create a workflow(using SharePoint 2013 Designer) based on the list which hosts the table of the Access web database, and in the workflow, add an action "Send Email", you can set the receiver and the email body. Then in the workflow
Start Options, set "Start workflow automatically when an item is created" and "Start workflow automatically when an item is changed".
After the above, publish the workflow.
Thanks,
Wendy

Taking an Outlook email and auto-filling into Sharepoint List

I am trying to figure out a way to set up a rule in my outlook that when certain emails come into outlook, it auto populate a partially filled out workflow into Sharepoint 2010. Is this even possible? If so what would be the best way to make this
happen? Thank you!

Hi,
From your description, you would like workflow on SharePoint side to be triggered by new coming emails in Outlook(on Exchange side).
As workaround, you could create inbox rule for receiving messages and forward them to SharePoint list which has incoming email feature configured. Then create workflow and associate it with items in this list.

Trigger email on infotype change

Hi,
I want to set up a dynamic action to send an email to group of people whenever somebody changes the basic pay IT0008.
Steps I followed:
1. Create notification text in SO10.
2. Create Distribution list under Tcode SBWP.
3. Set feature M0001 where I assigned DL & text
4. Set dynamic action as follows
    0008 02 20 P T001P-MOLGA='10'
    0008 02 30 M M0001
The above didn't work. Am i missing anything?
As well in SBWP I want to send email to outlook not SAP inbox. What type shall I use there?
Please help.
Mayuresh

Hi Mayuresh,
What you have set up it is correct/ You need to activate SMTP configuration with help of Basis team to send Notification. Then you need to maintain for which action you will send Notification and after which infotype mail will trigger. See below my code in dynamic action which has been triggered for Hiring action. After saving IT0034 mail will trigger. This might help you.
0034                   06     2     P     PSPAR-MASSN='ZA'
0034                   06     3     P     T001P-MOLGA='08'/X
0034                   06     4     P     T001P-MOLGA='11'/X
0034                   06     5     F     F_GET_TEXTS(Z_XXPS_NOTIFICATION)

Need to trigger workflow based on change to one field in Warranty Claim

Hi All,
I have defined a workflow for the Warranty Claim system with triggering event as CHANGE in BO BUS2222. The workflow is triggerred and everything goes on smoothly. The only thing I need to address is this workflow should be triggerred ONLY when one particular field(CLERK) of the Warranty is changed. I have tried using the field restrictions in transaction SWEC for the Change Object but that doesnt seem to work and my workflow is triggerred on any change I make to the Warranty. Any pointers regarding this issue?

Karthik

You will have to fetch the value based on your objectkey. I don't know what is your object key.
Declare: OBJTYPE like OBJTYPE
OBJKEY LIKE SWEINSTCOU-OBJKEY
EVENT   LIKE   SWETYPECOU-EVENT
RECTYPE LIKE SWETYPECOU-RECTYPE in the import parameter of your func module.
EVENT_CONTAINER    like SWCONT       in tables of func module.
In source code do these declarations apart from your other declarations which is required DATA: lv_object_key LIKE sww_contob-objkey ,
        lv_event       like SWETYPECOU-EVENT,
        lv_objtype     like SWETYPECOU-OBJTYPE,
Now say for an example your object key is sales order and you want only those orders for which order type is OR (standard sales order).
Then you can fetch the order type from any of the sales table and check if it is OR or not. Here your input will be lv_object_key.
eg: select order type from vbap where sales order =l v_object_key. Some logic like this.
If it is not OR then raise an error.
In this case when the required condtion is not satisfied the workflow won't be triggered.
Get back to me if you are facing problems

Trigger a SQL Reporting Service Data Alert when a SharePoint List is updated & need to pass parameters to report

We have been able to get a SSRS Data Alert to trigger a report to be emailed whenever an item is added to a specific SharePoint List. The report can accept parameters but would like to be able to pass parameters that are used in the report.
Is this possible? (I cross posted over at SharePoint dev. and was referred here)
Thanks
Νικοσ Γιαννιοσ

Hi Nikos,
Based on my understanding, you have deploy a parameter report to SharePoint site, then you have created a data alter for this report. Then you want to pass parameters to report then send alter, right?
In Reporting Services, if the report has parameters, we should select values for the parameter, after report display, we can create a new data alter. Otherwise, the New Data Alter button is grayed out in the drop-down list of the Action button. So that the
rule is created based on the filtered report. Please refer to below screenshot:
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.

PerformancePoint - 2010 Scorecard filter based on two data sources (Actual - OLAP/Target - Sharepoint List)

Hi
I have KPI's for tasks performed by specific groups within our organization, the actuals are determined by an MDX tuple formula against an AS OLAP data source:
([Change Task Assignment Group].[Group Subtype].&[GDC PM], [Measures].[Average task duration - m]) /1440
The Task Name is provided by a filter, also looking at the AS OLAP data source.
This woks well and allows us to have a single scorecard for the team, providing actuals depending on the task selected from the filter. The problem comes in setting targets for the KPI's! I can only set one target for each KPI and this is
the same for which ever task is selected via the filter. The target is stored in a SharePoint list.
Is it possible to have targets for the different tasks driven by the same filter? Can a single filter be configured to return values from two data sources to both the Actual KPI value and the Target value?
Thanks

A good solution. Liked it very much. Can you please make it a technet blog for others.

Sharepoint List Retention Policy based on Modified Date

How do I implement a Sharepoint List Retention Policy that deletes list items that haven't been modified in X days?
I've tried to create a retention policy in Sharepoint, but I only get the option to base the policy on:
Created Date
Declared Record
I need the policy to be based on Modified Date, a standard date field that appears against all lists & document libraries. Is there a configuration change I can make to cause Modified Date to appear in the list of available fields on the Retention Policy
dialog window?
Thanks.

Veda, thanks but I'm not really a hardcore C# coder.
We found more elegant solution was to create a List View which returns all records that should be deleted, based on our own custom deletion criteria, and then create an very simple SSIS Package in Visual Studio using the
Sharepoint Connectors for SSIS to delete all Sharepoint List Items returned from that List View. The Sharepoint Destination Connector has a delete operation.
This worked for us and didn't require any coding.

How to send bulk email to contacts stored in SharePoint 2010 lists

How do I send a group email to contacts stored in SP2010 List? I have a very large Customer List with various categories(supervisors, employees..etc). I would like to filter the list(say all supervisors) and send them an email directly from sharepoint?
Thanks
Cec
nothing for members to see

You can send email from javascript in an content editor web part or HTML Form webpart (if someone is doing this interactively in the browser AND they have an email client installed) by changing the current page ref to a mailto: reference.
location.href="mailto:"+emailTo+emailSub+emailBody;
var emailSub = "?subject=xxxxx";
var emailBody = "&body=xxxxx";
That will pop up an email window. Build up the emailTo by using Javascript/JQuery to pick up selected people on the page, or all rows on the page, or use something like SPServices or web service calls to pick up all items in a specific view. Depends totally
on how you want the UI to work. Not sure I'd do this on an external facing SP site since you wouldn't want any emails addresses in the clear to harvest, but inside a company intranet should be fine.
For example, you could read all records in the Supervisors view, build up the emailTo var with the correct addresses or names that your email client needs, then set location.href to the correct mailto: link.

Unable to change and re-publish existing InfoPath forms on External SharePoint lists (SharePoint 2013 Enterprise Online and On Premise)

Hi everybody,
I really reached the limit of my diagnostic ability... ...please help me!!!!
I subscribed an Online Sharepoint 2013 Development site to try Business Connectivity Services and InfoPath forms. Using SharePoint Designer 2013 I successfully created an external content type
and an external list, including InfoPath forms.
When I use InfoPath Designer 2013 to customize the forms I can open and change them without any problems, but when I try to publish the changes I made I get the following error:
"An error has occurred. The form template has been published to the server but it can only be opened using InfoPath filler"
(please note that I changed just an existing label, without adding any new control or new fields).
If I try to do exactly the same things but with an normal SharePoint list everything works like a charm!
I noted that the main difference between the internal/external list is that with the internal list the publishing path in InfoPath 2013 is something like:
https://<sharepointsite>/lists/<listname>
whereas for the external list is something like the following:
https://<sharepointsite>/lists/<listname>/item/template.xsn
Trying to overcome the problem I installed SharePoint 2013 Enterprise on premise using the VM from the Windows Azure Gallery. In this case the error I get when I try to publish with InfoPath
Designer 2013 is the following:
The following URL is not valid:
http://<sharepointsite>/lists/<listname>/item/template.xsn
and of course everything works fine with InfoPath Designer 2013 and regular SharePoint lists.
Even if I believe the problem is in general with external list and InfoPath, my external list is based on a the "Product" table from the "AdventureWorks2012" sample database
installed on SQL Azure and connected to SharePoint via Business Connectivity Services.
A big
thanks in advance to anyone who is able to
provide useful information to solve the problem!!!
Regards,
Fabio

Hi Folks,
Same issue here for any external list. We've migrated from 2010 to 2013 - it used to be fine on 2010. 2013 seems hang after 'getting site column information' then nothing. All effected users can quick publish to regular sharepoint lists, but cannot to external
lists.
In our situation we are trying to quick publish to sites using the 2010 look and feel in a 2013 environment. using SharePoint Designer 2013 and InfoPath 2013.

SharePoint 2013 document library workflow to send emails when document changes

Hi All,
Need a email alerts to setup when documents get change in a SharePoint 2013 document library. Mail should go to all the members in a SharePoint Security group.
Many Thanks
sudesh withanage

Out of the box , You cannot set alerts for SharePoint group. You may try -
1- Create a group in active directory, add users to the ADgroup. Add that ADgroup in Sharepoint and configure alert.
2- You can set up a new user and change their email to that of a distribution list, and then assign the alerts to this user.
3- You can create a custom workflow/action or event receiver that will send an email to a distibution list or programmatically traverse the SPGroup's members and send them the notification email, whenever an item is added or changed.
4- You can try this , this was for WSS3 -
http://advancedalert.codeplex.com/
5- you can to use SharePoint Designer and create a workflow that send an email to SharePoint group.

Can a workflow email another SharePoint List/Library?

I’m working on building out some automation in SharePoint to address some gaps in a currently manual process, but I’ve run into a snag.
Right now I have a custom tracking list for a group of users to use for checking the status of their requests. Based on the status, a workflow will kick off notices to the users letting them know where their requests are at. I want to expand upon this by
building an announcement list to receive emails from users (one of the few list templates that is configurable for this) to manage the growing volume of correspondence they produce. By having a list, I can create a workflow to auto sort, tag/categorize, and
auto-respond to emails based on tags/categories in ways that Outlook can’t. For the sake of non-repudiation and as evidence that the workflows are working correctly, I want to save copies of the notices SharePoint sends to 3<sup>rd</sup> list as
an archive. My 3<sup>rd</sup> list was also configured off the announcement list but it is not receiving the emails from the workflow. Since it is using the SharePoint exchange service account, I’m wondering if this a technical limitation that
cannot be resolved, or if there is a missing configuration we need to do on our end that is preventing this from working?
Essentially I’m trying to have SharePoint email itself from one list to another. Has anyone tried this or been successful?
(I prefer lists over libraries in this case because this is going to be moderately large scale data and I won’t have to drill down into documents for info. Lists also open of the possibility for more complex workflows later on should the need arise)
Tracking List (Custom List Template) Incoming Requests (Announcement List Template)
Archive (Announcement List Template

When we consider that email is simply a communications protocol being leveraged by the workflow, it becomes clear that the problem most likely lies in the email enablement of your Archive list. If your Archive list is indeed identical to the Requests
list, then I would take a look at configuration for email on that list as it probably isn't configured correctly. Additionally, you may wish to double check the email alias you're using in the workflow. Sending email to the wrong email address
is just a slip of the keyboard but can result in many hours of debugging. Ultimately, I would recommend tracking the email through Exchange logs to see if it's received and sent correctly.
I trust that answers your question...
Thanks

Cannot configure email for an Office365 Sharepoint list

Hi,
We are using an Office365 deployment of Project Online and SharePoint sites. There is a lot of information available on how to configure SharePoint lists to receive emails however the only option I have under List Settings | Communications is for RSS Feeds.
Can anyone tell me if this feature available in Office365 SharePoint?
Regards,
Conrad

Hi Conrad,
Please refer to the threads below for the email settings in Office 365 SharePoint sites:
http://community.office365.com/en-us/f/154/t/809.aspx
QUOTE:
Email alerts and workflow notifications can be sent to SharePoint users when documents or other items have been changed or added to a site. SharePoint Online does not at this time support to inbound email for document libraries, discussion boards, calendars,
and lists.
If you would like to make SharePoint sites to receive emails, I'd suggest you conside sitemailbox in SharePoint site:

List view web part not reflecting changes made to list view in SharePoint Designer

Dear All,
When adding a list view web part containing a view modified in SharePoint designer (e.g. conditional formatting applied, or group headers modified) I'm finding that the changes made in SPD are not reflected in the web part.
For example, I go into SPD edit a view, and the view appears correctly when I go back into SharePoint, however when I link to the view within a list view web part it results in losing the changes made in SPD.
Becasue it's a publishing page I'm unable to edit the contents of the web part in SPD.
I'm sure this is expected behavior but how do I get around this?
Thnaks,
MDB
