SAP - Lotus Notes Integration

[Rickayzen, Alan]

Hi Murray,
Please don't use the Lotus version of the integration (unless you are on R/3
Release 4.0). The SAP version is on the GUI CDs and there is plenty of
documentation on our Web site.
 
The SAP version makes the Lotus version obsolete by offering advanced
features. Our IBM/Lotus competence center agrees with this.
 
If you do use the Lotus version you will have to be very careful later that
you don't mix up the components (DLLs) later. A mixed installation will give
you problems that are difficult to resolve.
 
Kind regards,
 
Alan Rickayzen

We are using Lotus Notes as well as the SAP Workplace.
I did not have to do anything from the workflow side.
Following is the feedback from our Lotus Notes administrator:
 
There are two solutions that I know of.  They both are pretty much the
same, but one comes from Lotus and one comes from SAP.  Lotus has a set of
workflow databases that you can download from their site.

BUT you need to have the SAP connector for this to work.  The SAP connector
is purchased separately.  The Lotus workflow download is free.  The SAP
solution can be found on the SAP installation CD's.  You basically need to
install the workflow piece from the cd and put the workflow databases on
the domino server and follow the instructions.  The SAP cd installs all the
required dll's that are required for Lotus to talk to SAP.
 
Hope this helps

                    Please respond to
                    SAP Workflow Users'
                    Group
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
We are in the process of implementing workflow but we do not want to use
the Workplace.  We want to integrate with Lotus Notes instead.   Will the
experts please help me find documentation on how to go about this?   What
do I need to setup on the SAP side, and on the Lotus side?   Do I need to
install additional components on the servers, on the desktops?
 
Please help.
