URL links for Workflow Approval Email per user & others

Hi all, we have upgraded to SRM7 and understand that we have to switch to using program /SAPSRM/OFFLINEAPPROVALSEND to generate the workflow notification emails. We have maintained the portal information in the SRM configuration to build the link. However, we have 2 issues here
1. We currently output collective email so emails are sent out at specific timing on a per user rather than per work item basis. The URL link does not seem to work in this case (for shopping cart approval example) and we get an object GUID error. The URL looks something like this
http://sap-ped.dev.xyz.com/irj/portal/?navigationtarget=obn://BOSystemAlias=SAP_SRM/BOTechnicalName=sc/Operation=detailprof&NavMode=3
Also, even if I run the program for a PO approval example, the BOTechnicalName is still pointing to sc.
However, if I do it on a per work item basis, the URL works.
Does anyone know where the control this setting?
2. External and internal portal
We have some users connecting to the portal through more secured channel (external portal). In this case, I couldn't find a way to generate the appropriate URL for the external. In the past in the older SRM version, the program was using the attribute ITS_DEST in PPOPMA_BBP to build the URL link. Now, I do not know how the system knows which portal URL to take if the control is no longer at user level.
Has anyone ever had this requirement before?
My worse case scenario to resolve the above issues would be to use the BADI to alter the content of the email notification. The purpose of posting this message here is to ensure that I am not missing out any standard SAP functionality which could meet our requirements.
Cheers!

  • Offline approval email for Workflow approver substitiutes

    Hi,
    We are on SRM 7.1 ECS.
    Does the substitute function work true for OFFLINE APPROVAL emails also??
    E.g. User B is a substitute of User A.If user A gest the offline approval emai,then should usre B also get the offline approval email?

    Hi,
       I do not think the report might have the functionality to handle the substitution. May be what you can try is take a copy of the standard report and then try to customize as per your requirement .
    Try some thing like below.
    1. I assume that to identify a substitute for a user you might be storing these details in some Z table.
    2. Take a copy of the standard offline report and then from this custom report read the try to read this table after the original agents are determined.
    3. Finally schedule this report. with the same set of parameters that used to schedule the standard report.
    But I I think this report actually reads the agents of the workitems and then it tries to send the notification to the same user. So first you have to check out that how the workitem is forwarded to the substitute . If the substitute is also a agent then this report directly sends the notification.

  • Reminder mail for workflow approval

    Hi All,
    We have a scheduled task which sends Reminder mails for workflow approval which has been pending for more than 5 days.
    Recently I created new workflow definitions and reminder task stopped sending mails.
    I checked task and it has IapiTaskIfc Class com.frictionless.custom.wkfreminder.sendWorkflowReminder.
    How to check this class and do i need to make changes somewhere else to send reminder mails?
    Regards,
    Prabhat

    Hi Prabhat,
    I am working on creating a scheduled task for sending reminder emails. I need help on IapiTaskIfc Class com.frictionless.custom.wkfreminder.sendWorkflowReminder. Can you please share sendWorkflowReminder class to me, so that I can get idea about the code written for sending reminder emails? It would be great help.
    To check the class, you need to get the jar from server and decompile it. You can get some idea by looking at the java class file then.
    Thanks,

  • How to create an URL link for product cancellation using an FM

    Hi,
    I have tried creating an external attachment i.e URL link for a workorder by triggering a custom FM by exporting business object type , order id ,realtion type , title and link with return parameter as a message .
    But i'm not being able to create URL link for workorder using the custom FM.
    Kindly please suggest some solutions regarding how the URL link can be created using an FM instead of manual creation.

    given that there can be a variety of reasons for something to crash, you can sometimes initialize a buffer by wiring a non-null data structure to the left terminal of the call library function node. for example, if the output is to be a string no more than 100 characters long, create a string that long of nulls, blanks or anything and attach that to the left terminal for that output. no guarantees, but i have seen that work.

  • Dynamic url link for Crystal Reports Enterprise?

    Hi all,
    We recently upgraded to SBOP 4.0 SP2 and are looking at migrating our existing Crystal Reports from Crystal Reports 2011 to Crystal Reports for Enterprise 4.0.
    Up to this point we have been utilizing the BW Publisher and role menus in BW.
    Our long term goal is to migrate users from the BW GUI to the BI LaunchPad but this will be a gradual process.
    Until we make the final switch to the LaunchPad we need to maintain the links in the role menus. I found the Document Link option for Crystal Reports so I have a URL to point to the report that we can put in the role menu, but the system value is not dynamic. Is there a way to make this dynamic like we can do with web template URLs?
    For example, when using a web template URL we can use the <bsp_server> parameter in the URL to determine the SAP system. Is there an equivalent that can be used in the Document Link for the Crystal Report to determine the respective SBOP system?
    Thanks.

  • Links for web and email...

    when i'm typing a message in mail and i type in a web site or an email, is there any way for it to automatically be a link?

    Not in Mail. Of course you can enter a URL in the text of the message without using the Add Link if you want. If you have Rich Text editing turned on in the Composing options of Mail's preferences, then it will appear as a link to any recipient that can receive HTML mail. It just doesn't appear as a link in the message composition window.

    diff URLs. but if they contain the pattern "EXT*=.<extn name>" then the above code will work
    else you have to search for all formats.
    data:res type MATCH_RESULT,
    DATA : s1 type string VALUE 'http://go2ntlweb14/AttachmentWebsite/AttachmentWebsite.aspx?Num=ATT-F19220090818095048&Ext*=.JPG*&RC=N '.
    FIND first OCCURRENCE OF REGEX '.(JPG|TIFF|PNG|JPEG|BMP)' in s1 RESULTS res.
    if sy-subrc is INITIAL.
    SHIFT s1 by res-offset PLACES.
    endif.

  • Url link for download on LMS from Common services

    Hello, i would like to reported a major thing that appeared on 3-4 customers.
    The download action is not never possible when they try it from the LMS portal/Common Services/Software update.
    The url loaded on browser Internet(eg IE 7.0) add the character | on the link when it proceed after the authentication on the CISCO.COM web site.
    The worst is that when i did it from my lab's machine,it works fine even the bad entries. We have traced it with a sniffer.
    From an IE directly (outside the LMS so), the page is not displayed as she is not matched with W3C recomendations.
    A Doctype tag is not a DTD XHTML 1.0 one.
    Hereafter , the URL:
    http://www.cisco.com/cgi-bin/Software/WLAN/cwselectfile.cgi?bp=1&&SEARCH=nmim||1.6.0||Software%20Packages|||&FORMAT=XML
    On the other side, when a proxy is installed on this machine , it has been refused as well, as the proxy controls that.
    Thanks by advance.Richard.

    The caracters | are not allowed by the XML validator.
    The url link has been finished when he meet this kind caracters.
    So it means , that , maybe it has been inserted for stopping the entries, when a bad username has been typed.
