UWL Notification and SAP Inbox

Dear All,
I have developed a leave application in webdynpro abap and my requirement is to send notification in the UWL.
I have selected the activity as Email then the notification is coming in UWL but when i select the activity as INBOX it is only coming to SAP Inbox not in the UWL.
Please Advice..
regards
Mustafa

The notifications will not appear in UWL by default. You need to deploy a Sonic connector to the portal in order to display the notifications in the UWL notifications tab.
Another option could be to replace the send mail step in workflow as a decision step. Just write the same message to the decision step, and put there one button "Confirm" (or whatever). Then display these decision tasks in UWL. It will not be the same functionality but very close, and then you can avoid installing the Sonic connector.

Pushing BO inbox item to Lotus Notes and SAP Inbox.

Hi ,
Can we Push BO inbox item to Lotus Notes and SAP Inbox. if we do it then how to do it.
Thanks in Advance.

Yagyashikha

Hi,
well you should ask your Lotus Notes administrator to setup an SMTP gateway on the LotusNotes side for you. I know that this is possible but I have not done it myself before. And since this is an SAP BusinessObjects forum I am not sure you will get an answer about this here.

PR Workflow delay in sending a notification to SAP inbox of approver

Hi All,
We are experiencing a problem in PROD regarding the time delay of workflow in sending the PR to the approver in his SAP inbox.
The current set-up is expected to be operating in runtime. However, we experience delays in the notification.
In runtime graphics, the workflow stays in the background activity. The workflow is expected to just swiftly run the background activity and move to the next activity.
May I know the steps on solving this error?
Thanks in advance.

Reymar

Hi
i think background job sheduled timelimit, how much time is taking time to get workitem into ur inbox/ check with basis gut how theysheduled background jo running or check SOST transaction transmission r processing or not.

Regarding Autoforwarding of Notifications from SAP Inbox to Externam Mail ids

Hi Experts,
   In Our Project we are forwarding SAP INBOX Notifications to External email ids using
   below settings from SBWP .
SBWP->Settings->Office Settings.
Here in the Automatic Forwarding Tab we are maintaing the Emaid Adresses .
With this setting , IT forwards all the SAP INBOX mails to the email ids which we maintained in settings.
But we want to Filter the Notifications.
How to get this?
Regards
Rama

In your call don't pass put_in_outbox = 'X'.
Don't pass the Transmission Medium in the Receiver
Like:
wa_receivers-receiver = 'mahesh.bagel at the rate cadi.com'.
wa_receivers-rec_type = 'U'.
wa_receivers-notif_del = 'X'.
wa_receivers-notif_ndel = 'X'.
APPEND wa_receivers TO gt_receivers.
CLEAR wa_receivers.
CALL FUNCTION 'SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1'
EXPORTING
document_data = wa_doc_data
put_in_outbox = space   " <<
IMPORTING
sent_to_all = v_sent_all
TABLES
packing_list = gt_packing_list
contents_txt = gt_message
receivers = gt_receivers
EXCEPTIONS
too_many_receivers = 1
document_not_sent = 2
document_type_not_exist = 3
operation_no_authorization = 4
parameter_error = 5
x_error = 6
enqueue_error = 7
OTHERS = 8.
IF sy-subrc EQ 0.
COMMIT WORK.
ENDIF.

Email notification and SAP Script feature M0001

Hi All,
I have posted this questions in HCM forum but am posting again in ABAP forum since SAP script is related to ABAP development also. I will appreciate your help on this.
I am trying to send a notification to a distribution list whenever there is a specific Action (MASSN). I have two issues while trying to do so -
1 - I have defined the dynamic action and feature M0001 and a SAP script in SO10. I am getting the message in my inbox but with the variables from IT0000 only. In my sap script I have defined fields from IT0002/ IT0041 etc but those fields are coming as blank in my notification. Is this because I have configured dynamic action for IT0000 only. This is how my dynamic action looks like -
0000 06 1 P **SEND IF CHANGE IN MASSN -IT0000*****
0000 06 2 P T001P-MOLGA='10'
0000 06 4 P P0000-MASSN='UP'
0000 06 6 P P0000-MASSG='02'
0000 06 8 M M0001
Do I have to define these configurations for each and every infotype (that I have used in my SAP script) in table T588Z ?
2 - I want to include the position text instead of the Position no. in my notification. How can I do that? Since position text is stored in T582 table and not in P0000 or P0001.
Thank you for reading and I will appreciate your suggestions.

Hi Kjetil,
Do you know how the problem was finally solved in your former company?
I already had a look to your post before, but for me the question is still opened. We have a corporate (non SAP) portal which users see by default when they open their browser and from where they can navigate to the SAP portal, in which we do not have single sign on.
So our users will definitely not login to the SAP Portal by themselves (nor to go to UWL, nor to display the homepage).
Maybe that an applet running on the corporate portal and doing RFC calls on the different back-ends would solve it, but I believe that might be quite a burden to develop, especially if we start talking to various non SAP systems as well. A better approach would probably be to query the portal db to look at what is in each user's UWL. But I have no idea of how the UWL data is structured in the portal and how it is updated (i.e. is the delta pull mechanism also running when a user is not logged in the portal?). I am also not sure whether there is an API in the portal to query this easily (i.e. similar to SAP_WAPI_COUT_WORKITEMS). Has anyone tried this approach before?
Cheers,
Patrick

Extended notification and NWBC inbox

Hi,
Currently we can configure Workflow Inbox link to SAP Workflow Inbox for GUI or HTML (SBWP),
is there any way our to configure that link to take us directly to NWBC Workflow Inbox?
Thanks in advance
Niketan Maral

Hi Jocelyn,
Thanks for reply, Yes exactly i meant inbox link in extended notification than picked up using SHOW_INBOX_AS..there are three options
HTTP Link that Starts SAP GUI for HTML
HTTP Link that Starts SAP GUI for Windows
Executable Attachment that Starts SAP GUI for Windows
but it does not have option of NWBC Workflow Inbox.
Sure I will update influence portal for this option.
Btw , we could do something enhancing SWN_MESSAGE1 BSP application.
we inserted link which points to NWBC inbox URL.
and then we configured Msssage template using new BSP-URL.
Do you see any issue in above?
we will look into your suggestion of enhancing standard class as well.
Thanks and regards,
Niketan

Notification Mail in SAP Inbox is not going to External Mail.

Hi
Notification Mail (Simple Mail and not workitem) triggered from workflow are reaching the sap inbox. I need to send this to Outlook also.
In workflow I am using 'send mail' step to and uisng sap userid. With this the mail reaches SAP INbox.
But This doesnot flow to Outlook. Here i am only reffering to mail and not workitem.
I know we need to configure job (RSWUWFML2) to send workitems to outlook. but do we need to do the same for sending simple mail to outlook?
I noticed if we send mail using email id it is flowing to outlook but if the mail is sent using userid from workflow its not flowing.
Do i need to use some program to send notification from sap inbox to outlook.
I checked RSWUWFML2 but this has no option to send only mail and doesnot send the mail from sapinbox to outlook.
Any help clue appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi,
As per my understanding... You would be using Mail step to send mail from your workflow, right?
If this is the case then in mail step-> recipient type would be "Organization Object"... so make it as "E-mail address" and and pass or bind mail id to it. Now you need to go to SOST and check that mail is displayed there or not...
and If your don't want to use Mail Step in your worklfow, then you can use Mail FM - SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1 to send the mail... Here you need to pass mail id and the text to it and you can see in SOST.
Hope it is helpful to you.
Thanks & Regards,
Mihir

Understanding impact of using Sap Inbox for MSS Notification.

Up till we never used SAP Inbox for any business purpose. Now we are deciding it to use for MSS notification that is going to instantaneously increase volume of notification in SAP inbox.
I need to understand will there be any technical implication of this increased in data volume.
Thoughts ?

Hi
I used source system in some projects and had same scenario as you have. Its fine . You can satge the data in one DSO from different source systems and then can split regionally based on source system .
Source system ( 0LOGSYS and 0SOURSYSTEM) should be part of your key and should be the last one in sequence of keys , will help in improving performance for any read on this DSO .
I really dont remember facing any issue.

SAP Inbox: Send Transaction code link to the SAP Inbox

Hi,
I have a requirement, which is as follows.
I need mail to be sent to the SAP Inbox every morning.
In the body, there should be a link. When the user double-click's on the link, a transaction code should be executed in the background, thus bringing the user to the screen showing a report.
Is this possible and if so, how can it be done?
All help will be rewarded and greatly appreciated.
Thank You,
John

What he want to Say is that this request can easily be done with the help of a workflow, so you need to consult your workflow consultant.

How can I get SAP INBOX emails in to PORTAL UWL?

Hi One & All,
In the process of leave request we have two level approval. we configured two level approval and it is working fine. We also put send email when any action taken by approving manager.
For example If first level manager approves the leave then a mail notification has to be sent to employee who applied for that leave. the notification is like "First level manager approves your leave and it is sent for second level approval".
That message is cumming in SAP INBOX but it is not cumming in to UWL. How can I get this, help me in this.
Thanks & regards,
Ksanj.

If you had followed the substitution method then check the following:
- Transaction Code RMPS_SET_SUBSTITUTE updates/inserts values into table HRUS_D2 which drives substitution
- Substitution Profile used for Absences or check with "ALL" profile.
- In view structure of HRUS_D2
Active substitute will receive tasks right away
Passive substitute on Universal Worklist need to specify View tasks on behalf of the manager
Hope this helps you resolve the issue.
