Express Messages on BBP Web GUI

[Dart, Jocelyn]

Hi Dave,
All mails sent out automatically from BBP/EBP workflows are always
sent to the user's email address and not to their BBP/EBP inbox.
Only workitems are automatically sent to their inbox.
So I guess you are talking about users manually creating messages
in the inbox? In which case normal inbox substitutions (as opposed
to workflow substitutions) should allow you to forward the mail on.

Jocelyn,
 
Thanks for the response on this. The reason I have asked this question is
that the users would ideally like to receive these notifications on the MS
Exchange mail system that their company use. In order to do this, we have
set up 'sendmail'. With report RSWUWFMLEC, the only things that get sent
out to the exchange server are the executable mails from the SAP Inbox. The
normal email Documents are not forwarded. Do you or anybody else know how I
can get these emails to be forwarded as well as the executable workitems.
 
Any help would be great,
 
PS: I am working on a BBPEBP implementation for a UK Water Company.
 
Regards
 
Dave

Hi Dave,
The express messaging has been explicitly removed from BBP 2.0B inbox.
It's problematic to make it appear on the web - you would need to cater
for it in many web pages and handle the interruption in whatever
transaction
was being run.
The good news is that in EBP 2.0 the homepage that the user sees when they
first log in now tells them how many workitems they have outstanding in
their
inbox.  But of course you need to upgrade...
Dave, I notice you are from CSC - if this is about the BHP situation please
contact
me directly via my email address below as I am also currently on that
project.

Hello everyone,
 
I am currently working on a BBP 2.0b system, where the user will log onto
the system via a web front-end. They will not have access to the SAP GUI.
If I send an express message to the user, it does not provide a pop-up box
to indicate that such a message has arrived. Yet if you are logged on using
the SAP GUI the pop-up box does appear.
 
Has anyone come across this before?
 
Thanks for any response,
 
regards
 
Dave Aitken
