Connectivity to MS Exchange and Outlook

[Becker Stephan (extern)]

There was a discussion about this topic just a few days back, maybe worth
searching the archives.
 
Note that at present, SAP are not supporting Outlook 2002 and MAPI -- they
are passing the buck to Microsoft, but my gut feeling is telling me that
that will not be the final position.. see note 480684.
 
Note 63480 gives a good general overview of the topic.

you might like to consider using outlook forms which are asynchroneous and
thus less ressource intensiue then MAPI
;does take more time to implement though...

Hello Everyone,
 
We are trying to implement workflow for Accounts Payable in 4.6B and 4.6C
environments.  We would like to provide users with the option of coding and
approving the invoice through Outlook.  Has anyone had any experience using
SAP MAPI?  I have heard that it can be a "resource hog" if too many users
are set up to execute work items through outlook.  Is there any other way
that we can achieve this?
 
Any help is greatly appreciated.
 
Regards,
