Workitem execution from outlook - via citrix

Hallo,
we access SAP via Citrix and we want to execute workitems from outlook (by a decision task).
I use the report RSWUWFML2, the user receives e-mail with corresponding attachments to execute the workitem, but I don't know, how to open them.
Do I have to set up anything special?
Thank you.
Petra

Hi PB,
Are you not able to open/execute the workitem ?
Does it give you error ?
I have built scenarios of executing the workitem from Outlook,
in order to do that, you need to run the report RSWUWFML2 in background, hence create a variant for the report with following checkboxes ticked,
X New workitems only.
X One message per workitem.
X Workitem Execution.
After you run this report in background, you need to create a shortcut of your transaction to which your workitem should lead you.
I mean, say on execution of workitem, you want the user to reach transaction ME54N, then create a shortcut for this transaction, by opening your client thru SAP, going to ME54N and clicking the shortcut button on the menu.
Now, add this shortcut to your SAP GUI LogOnPad.
Note* : you should have all the valid parameters in the shortcut.
Thats all I did.
Hope it helps.
Reward if helpful.
Citrix system wouldnt create an issue I suppose.

E-mail from Outlook via Echange 2007 - wraps line at every character...

Has anyone seen e-mail sent from Outlook via Exchange that displays the e-mail one or two characters per line...
So a message like - Help me: would show up like
H
e
l
p
m
e
On the phone. The formatting is intact, if you 'forward' the message it pops up formatted just as it was sent. The wrap isn't exactly every character, it looks like it might be a certain pixel width, as sometimes two characters fit on a line. We have tried several phones, all have the same issues.
A solution would be really nice...its kind irritating
Thanks

How does it look in Outlook? Or via OWA? Is it all messages, or just those from a specific sender?
The general symptom is that the line length is set too short (or zero). This can be in Outlook or in the sender's mail client.

Sent emails not being delivered from Outlook via S...

Hi, is anyone else having issues with sent items via Outlook?
My settings have been working fine for years and the Outlook account check does not show any issues, yet when I send emails they are not delivered. They're not in my Outbox and they go to sent items.
I've tried reconfiguring for SSL, disabling all firewalls/HIPS/protection all to no avail.
It's really annoying especially at this time of year - but tech support say they do not support Outlook and emails sent from the web client work OK.
It can connect to mail.btinternet.com over port 25 and if i couldn't would get an error message in outlook so can only assume they are knocking around somewhere in the BT infrastructure.
Would be useful if a track on emails was available...
Any feedback on similar issues or advice would be gratefully received!
Thanks
Solved!

sorry gg30340 , Yes webmail works fine and I can receive from Outlook fine, just sent emails seems to disappear into a black hole from Outlook
Hi. Welcome to the forums.
For info, CP (Critical Path) has been in use for a few months now for the conversion from using Yahoo! mail servers.
What version of Outlook are you using ?
In the smtp setting, try removing @btinternet.com or @btopenworld.com from the username - despite what the online help might say.
You might like to try port 25, with No security or SSL/TLS setting.
Is it all emails that are failing to send ?
If emails have been fine for years, do you know what the previous settings were ?
As for disabling firewalls - this doesn't always help - as they can still block emails! What security package are you using, and have you checked the settings within that package ?
Sorry for the extra questions.

Remove Workitem Attachment from Outlook Inbox

Hi, Workflowers,
I would like to know, if possible can I remove 2 of the attachments. I think normally you have 3 attachments in the user's outlook inbox: for going to the SAP inbox, for displaying the work item, and for executing the work item. I would like to remove the attachment for displaying the work item and the one for the SAP inbox.
Is it possible to also customise the Missed Deadline mail subject so that it doesn't have the 'Missed Deadline...' part?
Thanks in advance.
Darlington

The text I am talking about is not the text in the Description tab of the PFTC transaction. I am fine with that. What I am concerned about is the standard text that appears in the outlook e-mail after the Description as follows:
"Open the SAP shortcut attachment in order to process the work item.
If you have any problems logging on, contact your system administrator."
And the message subject saying for example "Missed Deadline:...."
I know that when you run the report RSWUWFML2 under the block "Standard Text for Notification", there is a message class for the mail Subject "SWU_NOTIF" Message Number 2, which has &1: &2 in transaction SE91. How can I determine the text in these variables during runtime (In fact, I would like to Hard-code this text)
After I select "Collective Message" in the "Send granularity" block I have removed SWU_NOTIF_PROLOG1 for "Before Work Item Description" so that the standard text:
"Your Workflow inbox in the SAP system DEV, client 100, contains the following work item:"
does not appear in the outlook mail since I don't need it.
But I have not removed the SWU_NOTIF_EPILOG1. I would like to know how I can edit the text:
"Open the SAP shortcut attachment in order to process the work item.
If you have any problems logging on, contact your system administrator."
which I believe is the one involved with SWU_NOTIF_EPILOG1.

Darlington

Executing/accessing workitem(approv./rejects on BSPage ) from Outlook

Hi
Could you plz guide me on the following requirement.
A request should be approved by manager. And its a BSP application. Both request creation and approval is through BSP pages. I understand we have to generate(from WF_EXTSRV) a WF Task with reference to Approval BSP page. And include the same task in the workflow. So whenever a request is created, a workitem will be sent to manager's SAP-inbox. so when workitem is executed approval BSP page will be opned in a browser where manager will either approvr/rejects[he will also provide reason on the page].
But the business process is such a way that manager will execute the workitems only from outlook.
So now my question is, workitem should be availble in outlook for manager's access. How a mail can be sent to manager's inbox with links to workitem, whenever a request is created. So that when clicked on the link, work item should be executed & approval BSP page should be open in browser. Manager will either approv/reject the request which is in process. And then manger's action should be sent back to workflow.
Please let me know what configuration is required in order to achive this requirement. let me know where can i find the help(URL) for this configuration.
Regards,
KR

So if i get this right, you want to send a mail from the System to the Manager. The Manager should receive a link to the correct BSP Page. OK i use something like that...

Importing Contacts from Outlook to Address (not answered in archives)

This question will stump some of you! Before posting, I went gone through the archives and followed all the suggestions and have still not solved my problem...
I have moved to Mac from PC and need to import over 2000 Contacts from PC running Outlook 2000 to my beautiful iMac (17 inch with an Intel chip running Mac OS X 10.4.7). All these contacts are organised on the PC filed with relevant Category entries and also a great many of these contacts have lots of information stored in the Notes section. Therefore, I need to insure that any imported contacts maintain the data of their relevant Category (which hopefully will become relevant Group in Address) and also must keep all the Notes data.
The following suggestions came from me reading past postings on this bulletin board:
I have tried exporting all contacts to vCards from Outlook via sending them as attachments to myself but the attachments are winmail.dat with Address cannot import as vCards.
I have tried ABFiller on the .pst file generated by Outlook but the import to Address was corrupted and no contacts that were imported had any Category information or Notes.
I have tried Address Book Importer but this only brought over five contacts!
I have tried O2M but this too failed to import any contacts without losing the Category and Notes.
I have tried PST Import Tool but this too corrupted my data.
I have been able to sync my Palm with my PC and then my Mac using Missing Sync for Palm but none of the categories were carried over and none of the entries made in the year 2006.
Anybody got any other suggestions???
I guess the problem is that I am using a Mac with an Intel chip as the above suggestions seemed to work for other people.
HELP!!! I am desperate to get my data into my Mac from my PC.
Thanks,
Chris

Chris,
I have tried exporting all contacts to vCards from Outlook via sending them as attachments to myself but the attachments are winmail.dat with Address cannot import as vCards.
This is caused by sending your message as "richt text" from Outlook - if you send the message as plain text, the attachment(s) should come across properly instead of embedded within the dreaded winmail.dat file (IIRC, you will have to go into the properties of the recipient and unselect the checkbox saying "always send messages as rich text").
Alternatively, you can use TNEF's enough to extract the actual attachments from the winmail.dat file.
Another possible solution is to install Thunderbird on your PC. The first time you start TB, it will ask you whether you want to import your addresses (and messages) from Outlook. Once you have the addresses in TB, you can export them into a ldif file which you can then in turn import into the Address Book on your Mac.

Workflow - Error starting workitem from Outlook

Hi,
We have an issue in the workflow wherein, the workitem when started from outlook gives an error"Page cannot be displayed" ( like the one we get in a net browser).
When the same workitem is started from SAP inbox it works fine.
This one seems to be a compatibility issue between MS and SAP, but we are not sure where.
Have anyone already faced an error like this? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks and Regards,
Siva

Email messages appear on BlackBerry via Redirector but disappear from Outlook 2003

Email messages appear on BlackBerry Model 8310 via Redirector but disappear from Outlook 2003 mostly when the messages have attachments regardless of file size.

Hey RR-2010,
Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
Do you have the synchronize option enabled for reconcile messages in BlackBerry Desktop Manager?
Also is there any reason why you're using BlackBerry Desktop Redirector? Have you tried setting up the email account via BlackBerry Internet Service?

Approve workitems from outlook

Dear Experts,
I want to approve workitems from outlook. I learnt that we can use Microsoft Duet for this. Can you please tell me whether Duet can be used for approval from outlook for both standard workflows as well as custom workflows. Also please tell me whether irrespective of workflow being standard or custom the features, content and process of approving workitems from outlook, will it be the same for both the case. Or will there be any features or functionality that will be missing or can't be incorporated in case of custom workflows. Will only a link be displayed in outlook clicking on which it will open the workitem or will the workitem similar to that displayed in SBWP be displayed. In caseof link then it will a round about way of approving from SBWP.
I also learnt that this can be done by extended notifications. Can workitems be approved in case of using extended notifications or just notications can be sent using this. Please highlight me in this regard.
KR,
Bharath

Hi bharath ,
You are asolutely right ,there are 2 appraoches -
1) Microsoft Duet
SAP provides Leave Management in Duet .
With duet , any SAP workflow approval step can be handled Through Microsoft outlook .
For this the prerequisites are
a) MS office client
b) MS windows server
c) SAP ERP
d) MS exchange
in Duet the user is logged on to windows and gets validated with SAP,
you can search more on leave management through duet .
2) extended notifications
In extended notification , workflow work item would be sent in MS outlook inbox .User will be asked to provide SAP login and id and password to access the workitem .This will open SBWP for them .
this can be checked using report RSWUWFML2.
http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/ABAP/Workitemintimationintheemail
you will find a lot on this in sdn .
hope this helps.

Error in SAPLogon executing a Workitem from Outlook.

Hi everyone, I have set the communication between SAPWorkflow and Outlook, SAP send the workitems to the Internet account for each user without any problem. The situation that I got is when Iu2019m executing the Workitem from Outlook and It try to make the logon to SAP, this is what happened:
. In the Outlook message I make a click over the attachment to execute the Workitem.
. The interface shows up a pop up to type the password for the user which own the Workitemu2026..Itu2019s ok so far!!
. Once when I have type the password, thereu2019s a second window which correspond to the main and first SAP window to ask for the initial information (Client, User, Password) but in the bar below, thereu2019s an error telling me that the Client is not available on this system, and the field for the client is in blank; so I have to type the client and the password again(something wrong here!!), but the user still fine.
. After typed all those fields (client and password), the system make a logon and brings me the right transaction and the rest works perfectly.
I donu2019t think the error could be in field SAPLOGON_ID in the variant for the program RSWUWFML2 because I have set this variant several times in different SAP systems with the same information and works fine, for your information, this field goes in blank.
Thanks any help to avoid this error in the logon system and be able to enter directly to SAP system.

Hi Aditya, I really don't understand your comment, I sent you the version as I wrote you before on this forum in this topic (see *), additionally as I wrote here, I've found the solution and It wasn't related to Windows or Internet Explorer, The problem as the note that I attached says that the problem is because the standard SAP function to create the shortcut does not have the right parameter as We need (SY-MANDT).
I think this is very reasonable answer and good orientation for anyone.
Anyway, thanks a lot for all your help.
Regards
Felipe.

Hi Aditya, I'm using Internet Explorer 7, Winsdows Vista.
I really think Windows and my machine are not the problem because I have another Client in which It's working perfectly. So, all the fact point to the Client configuration in some place in SAP installation.
Any idea?

Open UWL workitem from outlook mail

Hello friends,
I have a requirement to execute/open workitem of UWL, which should open from outlook...
I have searched for the same in sdn forum and SAP-WUG, but was unsuccessful to find the exact solution...
I have used 3 technique to achive the requirement, but they are not working and also don't know it is a right approach or not..
1) Maintained the UWL url in SWNCONFIG-> General setting -> INBOX_LINK_URL
2) Configured setting as suggested for Extended notification and UWL in link
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/de/ad/d64842d59fb430e10000000a155106/content.htm
3) Maintained link in SWNCONFIG-> General setting -> WD_HOST and WG_HOST
For getting the UWL workitem link in Outlook wich program needs to be executed --> 1) RSWUWFML2 OR 2) SWN_SELSEN ?
I am not sure the requirement is possible or not...
If it is possible then please suggest the right approach and the techniques I have tried are correct or not?
Thanks and Regards,
Mihir

Dear Karri,
I am very new to workflow. So I don't know why and where webdynpro application is used in my senario... And I will be very obliged to bare with me if I don't understand any terminology of workflow.
I would like to share my complete senario with you.
I have a existing workflow on "COURSE BOOKING" which is already working on production perfectly. And the manager is approving it on UWL for it.
Now the requirement was given like this... I was told that manager has to search the workitem in UWL and had do refresh many time. So they asked me to provide a link or attachment of UWL's workitem directly in notification mail, so that he only needs to click on that link or attachment and required workitem in UWL will open and he/she could make decision.
The requirement is very similary to the notification mail generted by program RSWUWFML2, which has 3 attachements and among them 1 is of Execute Workitem, which open up SAP R/3 inbox's workitem directly. Means he doesn't need to search in SBWP...
So here in my case instead of SAP R/3 inbox workitem, he should open Portal UWL's workitem directly.
Now I come to your question about "webdynpro application launches workitem". I don't know where the webdynpro application comes into the picture...
Please guide...
Thanks & Regards,
Mihir

Importing tasks from Palm TX/ Outlook via DTA v1.3

I just imported 483 tasks which were organised into 12 categories on my Outlook 2003 SP3 and Palm TX.
The transfer from Outlook to my Palm Pre over USB took less than 2 mins but nearly 60mins to ‘sync’ with the webOS task application v1.0 once the data was in the phone.
The problem is that the categories in outlook have not appeared as lists in the task application- all the tasks have come over in one block. How can I transfer the categories across?
