We have roughly the same solution that you have.
 
You can also set up a work centre - but then of course you would have to
maintain the members of the work centre. Depends a little on where you want to
have the master. The group definition in Notes (assuming you use a *real* mail
program :-) could be generated from data in SAP. We go towards more and more
master data being held in the SAP system, but as we don't have a DAP solution
yet the Notes shortnames (i.e. e-mail addresses) have the master in Notes.
 
I set up a work centre as standard recipient for failed IDocs, but we have no
group definition for that in Notes - so it isn't quite the same situation.
Anyway, the persons in question then get the workflows in their own inboxes.

My thought process was:
1) In SU01 for user WF-BATCH put a group e-mail list for Internet mail
(SMTP).
2) In SWDC set up user WF-BATCH as the standard workflow administrator.=
 
3) Set up an Automatic Forwarding address for user WF-BATCH with the sa=
me
group e-mail list as #1 above.  Any workflow errors would go to the sup=
port
staff (contained in group e-mail list) and they could log on the system=
 
with
their own userid to take action.

brad:
 
in general WF-BATCH is set up as a background user with SAP_ALL and
SAP_NEW. the user executes all background tasks during a workflow in th=
e
system. but ... it is a background user. hence, one cannot really log o=
n
with that user id and work with it, i.e. receive and read SAPoffice
messages. i would recommend to enter a dialog user ID as the workflow
administrator. that way, a user will actually be able to log on to the
system, read the messages, and take action on them.
 
i hope this helps.

I'm looking at  putting user WF-BATCH as the standard workflow
administrator in tran SWDC.=A0  How does workflow notify the user workf=
low
administrator of errors (I'm assuming  workflow=A0just sends the
notifications to WF-BATCH's  inbox)?
 
Thanks,
Brad

Hi  Brad, at the other SAP installation at TI we set up a built a posit=
ion
for WF  administrators and used that position in SWDC.=A0 That worked.=A0=
 Also
in su01 under address/other communication, for userid wf batch we put a=
 ti
group list TI-workflow at list.ti.com=A0which  distributes to the TI group=
 list
in outlook. Hope that  helps

We're on 4.0B and ever since we implemented  Workflow I have listed mys=

(userid) as the Workflow Administrator via  tran SWDC.=A0 Now that ever=
ything
is stable I would like for our support  group to share in the wealth!=A0=
 So
I'd like for all of the error  messages (we don't get very much at all
anymore) to go our entire support  group (6 people).=A0 I thought about=
 
setting the group up as an org unit,  but that seems like too much just=
 for
this.=A0 I also thought about  creating a support group userid which co=
uld
contain our support group e-mail  address, and this just referencing th=
at
support group userid instead of  mine.=A0 Just wondering what other peo=
ple
are doing in regards to  this?
