In case you have your email server/proviver enabled to send you SMS notifying new incoming emial, you can do following:

Set up sending emails based on Process Chain status in BW. Then if BW sends email you get SMS by your email provider.

Hi,

I dont think there is an SMS option . But an email can be send when a Process chain gets failed. The detail step for this is

1. go to ALRTCATDEF

2. select classification "Process Chains"

3. click on display/change

4. double-click on "error in a process of a process chain"

5. click on "fixed recipients"

6. write in your username (you have to maintain your e-mail address in SU01 for that to work)

7. save

8. In RSPC, take the required process chain

9. go into edit mode

10. from the menu, select Process chain -> attributes -> alerting

11. check "send alerts if errors occur"

In one of my projects, we use to get automated calls after a process is failed. I will ask my friends how they did it.

Hi,

SAP Connect (Transaction SCOT) allows for communication vía SMS (as well as Email, etc.), but this requires additional configuration to interface SAP with the celular service provider, which would be out of the scope of BW topics covered here.

I suggest you research this first and once you have enabled your BW system to interface with your celular service provider you can come back to see how to setup SMS notifications for process chains. As an advance, it can be done through transaction RSPCM or through an event in each process chain.

Hi SivaPrasad Pudugosula

it is very simple. A prerequisite is that your email provider supports SMS notifications of incoming emails. In that case setup s simple rule that will notify you by SMS about any emails coming from BW system's Process Chains.

Hope this helps.
