Emailing Work Items

[Stephan Becker]

in that case, just send the workflow items to a generic user, and put the
name of the agent(s) in the workflow container. In that case, you need to
write a little extension to the MAPI on the Outlook side to route the stuff
into the right mailbox. For an experienced outlook programmer, that
shouldn't be too much hassle.

I had a similiar question. Can we email the workitems AND can the endusers
respond from their MS Outlook mailbox to execute the workitem in SAP? If
anyone has tried this, can you please share your experience?
 
Stephan, the reason we are looking into this is that all the approvers in a
workflow may not have SAP IDs. The cost of valid SAP IDs for all the new
users who would use SAP only for a few instances of a workflow step is a
major deterrent in workflow-enabling some organization-wide processes.
