Linking SAP to Outlook

[tony hick]

Hi Todd, Barna, Bill.
 
Thank you for the suggestions.
 
Our objective is to send a TEXT Message informing non-SAP users who have
Outlook email addresses of stauses of Orders in SAP.
 
Can the Object SELFITEM with option 'U' be used only for internet email
addresses such as @HOTMAIL.COM or @YAHOO.COM or can it be used to send Text
Messages to Microsoft Outlook Email accounts? Does this require any Basis
configuration or is it only a Workflow Admin setup involving the Object and
Method?
 
Regards,
Tony
