Replace WF-BATCH user as sender with user that made the "acti vity" task

[Wiz David]

Hi  Stephan and others
 
Thanks for response.
 
How to do "send mail" task as a dialog task if i'm using method "SELFITEM-SENDTASKDESCRIPTION" and this method is without a dialog.
 
T.I.A.

An idea is to use the notification feature which will use the correct user, the
only drawback is that you can't change the subject, and I haven't tried to make
these go to an internet account.
 
Just a thought which may well not apply: I've found it to cause confusion in
some instances, depends a little on how the email infrastructure is set up.
Either for the reply recipient who doesn't realize (s)he's sent a mail, or
could even be that the sender replies to a SAP address whilst thinking it's
going to an Outlook/Notes account...
Giving WF-BATCH a nicer name like 'SAP Workflow System' and putting the
originator's name as part of the subject or message ("Joe Bloggs has reviewed
XYZ") makes it a bit clearer that it's a system generated mail.
 
Cheers
Mike
