Workflow email to Outlook

$
0
0

Hello Experts,

 

I would like to understand more on how to have the workflow send email notification to Outlook. Based on my search, my understanding is

 

1) We can send email notification using Send email step by hard coding the email address

 

2) Use extended notification - seems to be prefered way

 

 

Can you please let me know how to use exended notification. I understand we have do some configuration in SWNCONFIG. does it require Basis team to do it or can workflow person do it ?

 

Secondly assuming that SWNCONFIG is in place do we need to schedule any batch job running a report ?

 

Finally in the workflow how or where or which step do we customize the email and how to link the work item?

 

Sorry I understand these are lot many questions, but i am just trying to understand the preferred way to solve this requirment.


Multiple levels escalation for deadline monitoring

$

0

Hi all,

 

We have a business requirement to perform multiple levels escalation in one of the workflow steps. If the approver does not approve the work item(WI) after one day,  a mail notification will be sent to the approver.  A second mail will be sent again if approver still doesn't approve WI after 48 hours.  Then the third/fourth mail will be sent to approver and approver's boss if approver still doesn't approve WI after 72 / 96 hours.  The fifth mail will be sent to approver's boss's boss if WI is not approved still after 5 days.

 

I know how to do simple and modeled deadline monitoring in workflow builder. But I don't know whether our business requirement can be achieved in workflow builder( and this is a step in dynamic parallel processing).  Other option I have is to create an ABAP report to go through the table stores workflow run time data and make this report run several times a day in the batch to send mail notification reminder.

 

Did anybody have a similar business requirement like ours? What's the best way to handle it - build it in workflow builder or write an ABAP report?

 

Thank you in advance,

Merta

Workflow Deadline Monitoring and Escalation

$

Hi There,

 

Here is my scenario, I have a workflow that goes to Person A. If after five minutes Person A has not completed the workflow step then I want Person A to receive a Deadline Reminder Notification. 5 minutes after that, if Person A still has not completed the workflow step I want the workflow item to go to Person B.

 

How can I implement this? I have been looking in all the forums and people are talking about escalation and deadline monitioring but no one seems to talk about moving the work item from Person A to Person B.

 

I have implemented the 5 minute deadline monitoring on Latest End and Person A is specified as the recepient for that reminder, but I can't see anywhere to say that after 10 minutes I want it to go to Person B.

 

Any help is much appreciated,

Colm

BO-FIPP

Hi Experts,

 

I have created a workflow to post the document after approval process.I am using FIPP.COMPLETED and FIPP.CREATED event.

 

My workflow should trigger only if both these conditions are satisfied:

     - Save as complete

     - Minimum one document attached.

 

Issue1: For save as complete I am checking the condition for completion flag = 'X' and for minimum one document attached I have created a method through which I am exporting a flag = 'X' by comparing INSTID_A of table  SRGBTBREL. The problem I am facing is once I click on save as complete in FB60 the workflow gets started and we can attach the document only when the document is parked or completed.So the condition to check the attachment is failed.I am not sure after creating an attachment will the user again clicks on save as complete or not to trigger the workflow.Please let me know how can I achieve this condition.

 

I have referred this thread for above issue - How to check attachments to a document

 

Issue2: Once the approver approves the parked document I have to post the document automatically.To achieve this I am using an standard method POST of FIPP. Posting is done successfully but the Posted by is entered as 'WF-BATCH' as it is a background processing, but I want the approver name instead of 'WF-BATCH'. I have tried creating a Post method as dialog and removed the check for background processing but when I check this in SWEL it says 'Dialog Work item got created' status is shown as 'READY'.I don't want any user interaction to post the method and I am not getting how should I make this activity as COMPLETED.How can I achieve this requirement without user interaction.

 

I have referred this thread : FIPP.COMPLETED event but still I have not achieved my requirement.

 

I am new to workflow, Please let me know the steps to be followed to resolve both this issues.

 

Awaiting for the replies.

 

Thanks & Regards,

RSBCS_REORG to delete records from Table SOFFCONT1

$

Hi Friends,

 

We have implemented the Note 966854 to import the Program RSBCS_REORG. This program is meant to delete the contents of the Table - SOFFCONT1.

 

On debugging the code for the program RSBCS_REORG I see there is no place where contents of the table - SOFFCONT1 are deleted physically. The contents of table SOC3 are deleted in CL_REORG_DOC_BCS->DEL_CONTENT. This table stores the administrative data of the Attachment which is stored by the Knowledge Provider in table SOFFCONT1. But again like I said there is no physical deletion of records from SOFFCONT1.

 

Can someone shed some light on this.

 

Thanks in Advance.

Workflow Issue in FIPP - Display Method

Hi All,

           I am working on FV60 (Invoice vendor Parking/Posting). In the user decision when the supervisor clicks on Review(display) of the parked document the workflow is struck in same activity and doesn't get directed to transaction FV60 for review. The fipp container is mapped to _WI_Object_ID where all the details are available. I do not find any error also... can any one let me know the probable cause for this?

Purchase Requisition Approval Workflow

$

Hi ABAPers,

 

I would like to be able to create a workflow that is such that it sends an e-mail to the approver saying something like 'PR 10000010 created by SAPUser was created. Please release (approve)'.

 

I have scheduled the program RSWUWFML2 with the apropriate variant and it is working fine. So far, the workflow sends an e-mail to the creater of the PR only, together with the work item attached, but does not send to the approver.

 

But the solution I need is to be able to 

 

1. Send the e-mail I have mentioned to the first approver in the release strategy in transaction ME52N.

2. If this first approver does not approve within 2 working days, it then sends that e-mail to the second approver, and so on...

3. The workflow ends when the approvals are done by all in the release strategy.

 

Is there a standard way that I can use to do this or I would have to create tasks, events etc?

Passing Data from BTE 1025 in Custom Workflow

$

Hi,

 

I am relatively new, kindly guide me on this.

I have done a lot of research and have been confused.

 

Heres what I need to do.

Trigger a custom workflow from BTE.

The workflow needs some data from the BTE like Doc Number, Posting Date,etc that needs to be sent for approval via workflow.

 

What I have did so far

I activated BTE 1025 and and called FM SAP_WAPI_START_WORKFLOW

I then created a WF and gave its ID in the above FM.

 

My Issue:

I do not understand how to use the data sent via input_container in the workflow I created.

Because the approval mail needs to have details about Doc Number, Posting Date,etc.

 

Everywhere on forum how to send the data is written, but I did not find retrieval and usage.

Hello Experts,

 

We have configured workflow WS10000051 for FI document park & post. Workflow is working fine.

Now as per new requirement, FI team want to restrict the workflow triggering for few document types only.

 

I tried the SWB_COND to put the condition, but as FIPP business object don't have document type available, I can't put condition from there.

 

From SWEC, I am not able to get the change document type for business Object FIPP.

 

Please help me out for any other way  for restricting the trigger of Workflow WS10000051, business object FIPP.

 

Thanks
