I am attending to send a message or notifications to specific users =
based on characteristic defined in an Org. Plan. I defined an Org. Plan =
with users. I then assigned Org. Object types to the Org. Plan. I'm =
assuming I have to use roles to find the correct users.

Phil,
Background steps cannot be assigned agents.
Sounds like what you want to do is use the result of a role resolution =
and send a mail to those agents.
A way to do this - create a new method that duplicates you role =
resolution, put in a task then bind the task results to a WF container =
element. Then use the WF container element as input for the =
ADDRESSSTRINGS container element.
Otherwise, could you describe in more detail what you are trying to do?

Thanks for the response. I have used this method also. But I need a =
method that will be a background task where the agents will be assigned =
to 'AC Roles' on the Control Tab of the task.

Hi, Phil:
I have used exactly what Scott has described for many notifications. The
background task sends e-mail to users - the sender's email address is
whatever you have assigned to WF-BATCH.

Neeraja

Thanks Scott, but I think a need to use a background task because I do =
not
need any type of response back. SELFITEM is a dialog method.

Hi Phil,
If your task uses object SELFITEM, method SENDTASKDESCRIPTION, the =
result
will be a mail item. For this there is no role binding, the receiver(s) =
are
determined by container elements:
ADDRESSSTRINGS (contains the id)
TYPEID the type.
For sapuserids, place the userid in ADDRESSSTRINGS and set typeid to 'B'
For internet mail addresses, place mail address in ADDRESSSTRINGS and =
set
typeid to 'U'
If you want to send as a workitem, use method DISPLAYTASKDESCRIPTION. =
This
will allow you to use role resolution for agent assignment.
Hope this helps,

Thanks to all. I have tried these approaches. Once I check the =
Background
Processing and return to the Control screen the agents assignments are =
no
longer available.

Phil, it really depends on your need to send information and what you =
need
to capture from the event. I have used both SELFITEM, (pulls from a WI) =
and
STD_TEXT (which uses a typed message with desired parameters added). =
There
are many other ways that I have seen emails sent. If you have a =
business
object you are already using, you could just send a notification email =
from
that task to role based agents. (If in 4.6).
The best one, most generic is the Std_Text. You create your own =
message.

Hello,
I am attempting to send a message (no decision) to users based using =
