Hi Jeroen,
Thank you - yes, this was also the direction I was thinking of, and you
have touched the actual missing link I am after which could save me a
lot of time to search for. Do you perhaps know the name of the table or
perhaps a BAPI that provides the assigned agents to the workitem. (I am
not lazy - just preasured for a solution by yesterday......).
Regards,
Hans

Hans, would just create a simple and as efficient as possible program
which checks for any new workitems in SWWWIHEAD, get the assigned agents
for the WI_ID and then send out notifications to the agents, and run
this job once every hour or so. Can't imagine a process which requires
even less completion time then that.
My users would freak out as the volumes of emails generated this way can
be quite shocking. At least this would allow you to make sure your users
do not get more then one reminder every hour :)
Regards,
Jeroen

Hi Jeroen,
Yes, you are right, but I need to send out a notification "realtime". Do
you have any pointers on how to tap into this process?
Regards,
Hans

Hans,
You probably want a job to review inboxes and send out updates to the
users who have new items.=20
We decided to run a job informing all our users of all their outstanding
workitems two times a week; providing them with a list of all the
outstanding activities and some other info.
Advantages:
1. Easier set up of your workflows
2. Relatively limited volumes of emails as you are grouping all
workitems and reminders for one agent in one mail=20
3. You can include a URL directly to the workitem if you are using the
workplace miniapp (and preferably SSO) 4. As all workitems are included
for every user in every email you don't have to bother with deadline
processing and reminders (in most cases). 5. You can schedule the
processing at a relatively quiet period
Disadvantage obviously is that it is not real time, if you have
processes which need to be completed quickly you have to build in and
maintain all the reminder emails individually in every mail...
Regards,
Jeroen

Hi all,
=20
is there a way to send an e-mail from SAP to Outlook everytime a
workitem is sent to a user's Business workplace WITHOUT building in the
send mail step in each workflow - some or other higher level mechanism
outside the actual workflow or task?
=20
Any input will be appreciated.
=20
Thanks,
=20
Hans.
