URL link to open Service Desk message

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

I have an email that is sent via a custom action from a service desk ticket.

In this email I attach a document created via SMARTFORM. This document contains a URL which should (when clicked) open the ticket in a browser.

I have all I need (ticket ID, host, port number etc.) but I don't know how to construct the full URL. Anybody could indicate how to do this?

Many thanks,

Brodo

Good morning.

I'm facing a problem with the e-mail link to message, when i click in the link the browser starts to download a SAP GUI shortcut to the support message.

Any solution for this issue?

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,

Have you tried the following URLs:

- Using the message GUID:

http://<server:port>/sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/ags_incident_trans?sap-wd-configId=AGS_INCIDENT_

TRANS&GUID=<GUID>

- Using the message number:

http://<server:port>/sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/ags_incident_trans?sap-wd-configId=AGS_INCIDENT_

TRANS&MSNR=<message number>&MSTYP=<message type>

dear Ruediger,

I solved my issue by defining variable in the smart form like url1 url2 url3

Eg.: url1 type string default value "http:// host.port/sap/bc/gui/sap/its/webgui?"

url2 type string default value "&sap-client=900&_{transaction=DSWP_SAPSHORTCUT&}OkCode=/08 "

....etc.

and in my smart form i put into the text block the link like this &url1&&url2&&orderadm_h-object_id&

and it's working fine now.

regards,

Sherif

Does anybody know a way to open a Support Ticket directly from the external system?

When I try

http://mySolman:myPort/sap/bc/gui/sap/its/webgui?sap-language=E&sap-client=001&;_{transaction=DSWP_SAPSHORTCUT&}OkCode=/08&pcmd=CRMVW&pnumb=GUID&pvariant=&

(where GUID is the one I use to create the ticket), I sometimes get the Service Desk Message displayed, but, somtimes I am landing on the "Create Quotation" screen... does anybody know why that happens sometimes?

When I try it using the GUID like proposed by Ruediger Stocker (in this thread), I get this error:

• The following error text was processed in the system S01 : WebDynpro Exception: Application AGS_INCIDENT_TRANS Does Not Exist

• The error occurred on the application server vsolman_S01_00 and in the work process 0 .

• The termination type was: RABAX_STATE

• The ABAP call stack was:

Method: RAISE of program CX_WD_GENERAL=================CP

Method: HANDLE_REQUEST of program CL_WDR_UCF====================CP

Method: IF_HTTP_EXTENSION~HANDLE_REQUEST of program CL_WDR_MAIN_TASK==============CP

Method: EXECUTE_REQUEST of program CL_HTTP_SERVER================CP

Function: HTTP_DISPATCH_REQUEST of program SAPLHTTP_RUNTIME

Module: %_HTTP_START of program SAPMHTTP

All I want is to open an existing service desk ticket by supplying its GUID - no matter if it opens in the SAP GUI or in a web browser. Anyone knows how to accomplish that? (ideally by supplying the user credentials so that no user/passwd-combination has to be entered when opening the ticket)

Thanks a lot in advance!

Regards,

Ronald

What's the support package level of your SAP Solution Manager?

[former_member77378]

@Ruediger Stoecker:

SAP_BASIS shows SAPKB70012.

Is this information enough or do you need the support package level of another software component to tell me if that behaviour might have been corrected...?

@ Riccardo Escher:

I do not want to display the ticket inline within an email. All I try to achieve is to open a ticket from my external service desk. I want to implement a button named "Open Ticket in SolutionManager ServiceDesk" in my external service desk system. Clicking on that button should open the ticket in SolMan. I would prefer using the classic Win32 SAPgui. How could I do that? (Maybe there is a possibility passing the user credentials as well?)

Thank you very much in advance for your answers!

Your SolMan release is on stack 12 (ST 400 SP12), which was released on 25.06.2007.

The WebDynpro to display a message in the Work Center was not available there. It was shipped with ST 400 SP15 or ST 400 SP18.

To open a Win32 Gui from extern the only way I know of is to use a SAPGui shortcut. This is a simple textfile with the extension .SAP.

Usually the installation of the Windows Gui binds this extention to the Gui itself, so opening a file *.SAP should start the windows gui (or if already started open a new session).

You can experiment this when you select a transaction in the main menu and then exetute menu -> Edit -> Create Shortcut on the Desktop. So it would be enough to create dynamically a textfile and download & open it from the browser.

How to start CRMD_ORDER via a Gui Shortcut is also shown in my blog to which I linked at in my posting before, so I don't repeat this here.

This is easily done, but i fear that this would make you unhappy, because this is the way to open an existing service desk ticket, not to create a new onw.

May be you have to call remotely the function module BAPI_BUSPROCESSND_CREATEMULTI. I don't know if it opens a window, I use BAPI_BUSPROCESSND_DISPLAY and this does it.

It should be possible to embed this RFC into a service. May be it's already done by SAP.

If you have succeeded, you might post your solution in a blog

I don't know if it is possible to pass the credentials via the URL, but SSO (Single Sign On) works fine.

[former_member77378]

Could you give me a hint?

I found out that BAPI_BUSPROCESSND_DISPLAY should work somehow...

http://mySolman:8000/sap/bc/soap/wsdl/?services=BAPI_BUSPROCESSND_DISPLAY&sap-client=001

The link above shows me the appropriate WSDL file. But when I try to send a SOAP request (via SoapUI) using the GUID I used to create the ticket, I get an error:

Request:

<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:urn="urn:sap-com:document:sap:rfc:functions">

</soapenv:Body>

</soapenv:Envelope>

Response:

Any ideas what went wrong?

[RiccardoEscher]

I am no expert of services & soap, but RABAX means that there should be a dump (ST22). The exception CNTL_ERROR is very generic. It depends upon the class triggering it.

May be you have also to pass the import parameter object_type='BUS2000116'.

INCLUDE lcrm_busprocessnd_bapicon.

PARAMETERS:
  p_crmid    TYPE crmt_object_id_db,
  p_mode     TYPE crmt_component_type DEFAULT gc_component_type-display,
  p_objtyp   TYPE crmt_swo_objtyp_process DEFAULT 'BUS2000116'.

 CASE p_mode.
      WHEN gc_component_type-display OR space.
        CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_BUSPROCESSND_DISPLAY'
          EXPORTING
            business_process = gv_guid2
            object_type      = p_objtyp
          TABLES
            return           = gt_return.
      WHEN gc_component_type-maintain.
        CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_BUSPROCESSND_CHANGEDIALOG'
          EXPORTING
            business_process = gv_guid
          TABLES
            return           = gt_return.
    ENDCASE.

@Ricardo:

I think I am trying to use the wrong function module for what I am trying to achieve...

BAPI_BUSPROCESSND_DISPLAY seems to be intended for displaying Sales Orders. What I want to do is displaying a Solution Manager Service Desk Ticket. Do you know a solution for that?

Thank you very much in advance!

Ronald

No, no, the BAdI works also for service transaction types.

a) it is used in the monitor (CRM_DNO_MONITOR)

b) I use it to open ChaRM tickets, which are nearly the same as service desk tickets (SDCR - SDNO)

"This is how I got ours to work. Add a text block to the email smartform. For the link to the ticket, you need to add the URL as follows: http://hostname:port/sap/bc/bsp/sap/dswp_bsp/dsmop.html?ISBSP=X&CMD=NOMI&NCMD=CRMVW&ID=&orderadm_h-g...; The trick is to enter the parameter for the ticket number - you need to insert the "&orderadm_h-guid&" as part of the URL using the field button (the + sign). We also have another link to see all tickets. http://host:port/sap/bc/bsp/sap/dswp_bsp?CMD=NOMI&VANOSV=X&sap-client=100 Hope that solves your problem."

Thanks guys, this is all good.

I have also found a sap note regarding this matter: 942847

However, in my case, I still have the problem as my customer only uses the workcenter. They would like to view the ticket via the workcenter and not anything else.

I don't know if this is possible, but so far I have a url which is taking me to the initial page:

http://<host>:<port>/sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/ags_workcenter?sap-client=300&sap-language=EN

However, how do I get directly to the ticket? That is the question...

Thanks again for any additional help you may be able to give me.

I think the answer is in my response:

The trick is to enter the parameter for the ticket number - you need to insert the "&orderadm_h-guid&" as part of the URL using the field button (the + sign).

the "ID=&orderadm_h-guid&" is the ID number of the ticket

[Former Member]

Your information is very userful . Thanks for that .

Also i am anxious to know is there any other way to make the mail content as available inline with the mail instead of sending it as attachements .

Also you have mentioned that two determine the mention No we need to use the variable 'orderadm_h-guid' , like this where can we get the info of other variables and their values .

[Former Member]

go to transaction SCOT and in the SMTP email settings change it from PDF to TXT.

[Former Member]

thanks again . one more issue .

Now the URl is getting called correctly with the message id .

but i get the following error ,

"Service cannot be reached

What has happened?

URL http://hism01.hmi.com:8001/sap/bc/gui/sap/its/webgui call was terminated because the corresponding service is not available.

Note

• The termination occurred in system HFS with error code 403 and for the reason Forbidden.*

Dear Jason,

i did as you mentioned but when i'm activating the SmartForms it gives me error related to the terms in the url

like CMD=NOMI is not defined and NCMD=CRMVW also is not defined.

So please help

regards,

Sherif

[RiccardoEscher]

To display the message as html inline you have to code you own smartform mail method. I show it in [this blog|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/weblogs?blog=/pub/wlg/16149] [original link is broken] [original link is broken] [original link is broken];

A few days ago, we upgraded our SolutionManager installation to support package level 17.

What I am trying now is to open a ticket create by our external service desk. The strange thing is... I'll give an example:

I am creating a ticket from the external ServiceDesk. The Ticket's GUID is C1340E4CA521E444E1000000C0A8022A. When I try to open the ticket by typing

http://mysolman:8000/sap/bc/bsp/sap/dswp_bsp/dsmop.html?ISBSP=X&CMD=NOMI&NCMD=CRMVW&ID=C1340E4CA521E...

into my webbrowser, it does not work. When I browse the list of support tickets, I can see that the newly created Ticket's ID differs from the one above. It is EC340E4CA521E444E1000000C0A8022A. (The E4CA521E444E1000000C0A8022A-part is completely identical in all tickets' GUID - only the first 5 characters are different)

If I use the correct GUID within the URL above, the ServiceDeskTicket opens just the way it should.

Does anyone know where the problem is? I thought the incidentGUID from the external system is the one used to identify the ticket in SolMan-ServiceDesk... how can I accomplish opening an externally created ticket?

Thanks a lot in advance for any tips, hints or solutions!

cheers

Ronald
