WORKFLOW or FM - Send message to position

[Former Member]

My Req:

I want to send message to a list of people who belongs to a particular Position. Is there any function module I can use or do i need to use workflow. If workflow I would need some guidance, since i am a newbie to workflow.

Thanks

hi Kris,

You have two options:

<- First ->

Basic Steps:

1) Create a step "Send Mail" at the point that you want;

2) Inside the "Send Mail", put the "Recipient Type" = 'S - Position'.

3) Insert the position in front of this field.

4) fill the others fields with a mensage that you want;

<- Second ->

Basic Steps:

1) Create a active that must return a list of people in table z_list(***);

2) Create a step "Send Mail" at the point that you want;

3) Inside the "Send Mail", put the "Recipient Type" = 'Expression'.

4) In the field in front of the recipient set the table z_list;

5) fill the others fields with a mensage that you want;

(***)Type of SWHACTOR, where:

OTYPE = 'US'.

OBJID = sap user.

You can append a lot of people.

receivers-receiver = 'US Cash'.

receivers-rec_type = 'J'.

append receivers.

call function 'SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1'

exporting

document_data = mail_data

tables

object_content = mail_content

receivers = receivers

exceptions

too_many_receivers = 1

document_not_sent = 2

document_type_not_exist = 3

operation_no_authorization = 4

parameter_error = 5

x_error = 6

enqueue_error = 7

others = 8.

I am trying to use this FM with the Position object, but still not getting the message in my inbox. Any help appreciated.
