Hi,

Alerts with and without BPM are different and you need separate Alert Categories for each of these.

When you select Dynamic text in the Alert category, the Container tab will no longer be available in ALRTCATDEF for your Alet Category

Need not define the Container Elements here. Define them in the BPM and then use them in the BPM itself ( as shown in Michal's blog).

Hi Swarup,

we are using BPM in our scenario as per ur

Need not define the Container Elements here. Define them in the BPM and then use them in the BPM itself

this means i need to define the datatype elements in the bpm container elments option as shown in the michael blog not in the abapstack alertcategory-->create container element->......right.

correct me if i am not wrong .
