Web Page as part of a workflow

[Dart, Jocelyn]

Hi David,
In addition to the very good advice the WUGGers have been given about licensing issues,
understand that from SAP's viewpoint you need some sort of licence coverage for ANY user who
is connecting to SAP and accessing data.
 
Plus from a business perspective there is usually a strong need to know who is doing what (audit trail) and
prevent user's from accessing things they shouldn't (security) that means an SAP user id per user is the
best way to go.
 
Even if you use generic user ids (which is problematic and loses the security/audit trail advantages) you still
need to be licensed for each individual user who may potentially use the generic userid.
 
Note that you need an SAP user id - but the user does NOT need to log on to SAP via SAPGUI.
 
Best advice is to talk to your sales guy about mySAP licensing.

Hello All,
I have a requirement for a workflow to provide a list of questions to a
user. The user will need to answer these question which will then be stored
within SAP.
The main problem is, these users do not and will not have log ons to our SAP
systems.
 
I have thought of using BSP's to achieve this with a generic logon to SAP,
although I have never done any BSP development.
 
Has anyone ever developed a workflow where users are notified by e-mail
which provides a URL to a web page for them to input answers to a list of
questions and then the workflow continue in SAP ?
We use R/3 4.6c and CRM 3.1.
 
Apologies if this is too general a question.
 
Regards
David
