Sendtaskdescription Method

[Robert Bates]

Todd,
 
I don't have an answer - however there is a big clue in the evidence you give:
if it runs ok when in debug mode (which runs under your personal id) but fails
in normal or method test mode (which run under WF-BATCH) there must be something
missing on the WF-BATCH id. You say that you've set up the return e-mail address
- check this thoroughly and make sure there is an @ in there to fool the system,
even if you are using a dummy address. Make sure that the default domain name is
set up in Workflow Customising SWU3 (which I think is used in release 4.0b).
Check authorisations (SAP_ALL and SAP_NEW are usually used for WF-BATCH).
 
Good luck!

Subject:  Sendtaskdescription Method
 
 
 
Hi all,
 
I have a peculiar problem.  I created a single step task to send a mail
(which I have done many times before for other clients) using
SELFITEM/SENDTASKDESCRIPTION but it keeps erroring out with the message
'Document could not be sent'.  I have tried various recipient type and
Address String binding combinations including trying to send to a hardcoded
user ID using recipient types G and B, sending to a org position using type
G and H, and sending to a distribution list using type P and C but all
return an error.  I checked OSS and found a note saying that I should make
sure that the ID WF-BATCH has a return email address set up but that didn't
have any effect.  Also, when I try using the test environment in the
diagnosis, if I run the method test in regular mode I get the error, but if
I run it in debug, it works fine and I get my mail message so I can't see
the problem.  Can anyone think of anything else to look at?  We are on
release 4.0b.
 
Thanks,
 
Todd
