color=#0000ff size=2>Hi Raja, </FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=198065221-10122008><FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>Firstly if you are on SAP BASIS/ABAP Release 700 you should
definitely be using SWNCONFIG and ***NOT*** be using RSWUWFML2.
</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=198065221-10122008><FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2></FONT></SPAN> </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=198065221-10122008><FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>There are blogs on SDN explaining how to set up SWNCONFIG.
But for basic operation there are only 5 steps:</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=198065221-10122008><FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2></FONT></SPAN> </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=198065221-10122008><FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>1. Create a Delivery Schedule - this is how often you want
the notifications generated</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=198065221-10122008><FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2></FONT></SPAN> </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=198065221-10122008><FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>2. Create a Subscription in Scenario WORKFLOW category
STANDARD referencing your delivery schedule.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=198065221-10122008><FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>Here you choose whether you want plain text, html or sms
messages sent. If you are using MS Outlook/Exchange go stratight to the
html version.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=198065221-10122008><FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>If you are using some other groupware I would suggest you
start with plain text and then try html once you have the notifications going
out successfully.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=198065221-10122008><FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>E.g. Lotus Notes can have some difficulty with html if you
are on an early release</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=198065221-10122008><FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2></FONT></SPAN> </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=198065221-10122008><FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>I recommend granularity "Multiple workitems per
notification" and also to set the recipient to "*" with the standard handle
CL_SWN_SUBSCRIPTION.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=198065221-10122008><FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2></FONT></SPAN> </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=198065221-10122008><FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>3. Create a Schedule Selection - this is how often
you want the work items assessed - generally we set this exactly the same as the
delivery schedule</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=198065221-10122008><FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2></FONT></SPAN> </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=198065221-10122008><FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>4. Adjust your General Settings - you need to nominate the
priority order for finding the email address of a user - i.e. if you store email
addresses in infotype 105/0010 then select ESS first, </FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=198065221-10122008><FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>otherwise select CAM (Central Address Mgt)
first. Add the link to your inbox - e.g. the link to the Portal page
containing your UWL inbox. </FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=198065221-10122008><FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2></FONT></SPAN> </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=198065221-10122008><FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>5. Schedule job SWN_SELSEN.
</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=198065221-10122008><FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2></FONT></SPAN> </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=198065221-10122008><FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>If you have any difficulties there is a tester program
SWN_SELSEN_TEST which you can use to diagnose what is going on.

<TD vAlign=top>Hello Experts,<BR>Can you please shed some lights and
expertise on this issue ?<BR><BR>We are implementing around 10 workflows
for our phase I. <BR><BR>We are on SAP BASIS/ABAP release 700 and Support
Pack Level 15.<BR><BR><STRONG><U>MY REQUIREMENT IS
:</U></STRONG><BR><BR>Sending email notifications to user's / apporover's
outlook inbox whenever they have new workitems in their SAP
inbox.<BR><BR>So I did setup the standard program RSWUWFML2 with multiple
variants and scheduled to run in the background in Quality
environment.<BR><BR>Please see the attached screenshot for my variant
setup.<BR><BR><STRONG><U>Our problems are :</U></STRONG><BR><BR>1.The
background job does not send any workitem notification<BR>2.If I run the
job manually , then it is sending workitems. If I run the job in next 2
minutes also it is sending the same workitems which is not supposed
to.<BR><BR><STRONG><U>So your help needed on :</U></STRONG><BR>How to make
the background job to work fine and select and send workitems only once to
approvers. I just went through the code (RSWUWFML2) , it sounds like it
would send work item only once ,Is it right?<BR><BR>I also read
in the forum that we need to use SWNCONFIG, If so what are the
parameters need to be set up?<BR><BR>Thanks and appreciate your help in
advance.Please reply back ASAP as we are in UAT stage and ready to go-live
