Event linkage de-activated

[Michael Pokraka]

Hi Fred,
The event queue gets used automatically in this case - even for events not using the queue.
In other words, you can use the queue purely for errored events. On a 4.6c system my experience with the queue has not been all that great, so i've been avoiding using the queue unless necessary; but for error handling it's the best thing since sliced bread.
 
I'll quote an old post from Jocelyn on the same topic below.
Cheers
Mike

Hi Mike,
In transaction SWEQADM, on the "Basic Data" tab set the "Behaviour on error feedback"
to be "Mark linkages as having errors" and then the queue will capture failed events
for all event linkages by default.  You can also set the same field in SWETYPV on an
individual event linkage basis.
 
Failed events are captured but not automatically redelivered - they show up in the
"Event linkages with errors" section of SWEQADM and an administrator can choose to
either redeliver manually or request the event queue job to include those failed
events (but this inclusion still has to be sanctioned by an administrator).
 
There is a fair bit of doco in SAP Library (go to site help.sap.com if you don't
have the latest help) and a section on it in the book.
 
Hope that helps.
Regards,
