we have to create Alerts in XI or in R/3?

Hi,

The Alerts in SAP XI can be raised for error happening in:

1. Adapter Engine

2. Integration Engine.

1. These Alerts are system generated in case anything happens in either of the component.

For this you need to:

1. Create ALert Category in the Trnasaction ALRTCATDEF

2. Create Alert rules in Runtime Workbench--> ALert Configuration and associating these rules to Alert category.

If you want you can do it without a BPM

and throw an exception in case any of the values is missing:

have a look at this weblog on how to throw exceptions

in a nice way:

/people/alessandro.guarneri/blog/2006/01/26/throwing-smart-exceptions-in-xi-graphical-mapping

Also just go through Raising Exceptions in SAP XI Mapping and see if it helps you solve the problem.

Also go through these links:

For a Simple case with BPM refer:

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/33/4a773f12f14a18e10000000a114084/frameset.htm

To send an EMAIL, assign an EMAIL ID to the corresponding user in the transaction SU01 and then set up SCOT and you can send emails when the ALERT is triggered..

Once you have configure Alerts, you will get the Alerts into ALERT INBOX in RWB of the user. To also get the email, the following needs to be done,

1. In SU01 -- Assign the Email ID for the Recipient of the ALERT.

2. In , RWB>ALERT INBOX> PERSONALIZATION--> Time Independent Delivery and Email are selected.

3. Finally, SCOT needs to be set up to send Emails. Check this for the same. You can ask your BASIS team to do this step.

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/23/1edf098ea211d2b47300609419ed29/frameset.htm

Also, In ALRTCATDEF, go to SETTINGS--> CONFIGURATION. By default, the option selected is INTERNAL PROCESSING. Select the option SMTP FORWARDING AS XML and give the email id. This will enable you to send an email alert whenever an error occurs in XI.

I hope it helps.....

Thanks

Hi,

First start by creating the alerts with this BLOG

/people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2005/09/09/xi-alerts--step-by-step

Have a look at this SAP help file while creating the Container variables

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/80/942f3ffed33d67e10000000a114084/frameset.htm

To send email tomail box automatically when alert occurs in XI

Can you check whether the below authorization is given to that user.

For the sending of alerts via external communication methods (e-mail, sms, fax) and for inbound processing, an RFC user has to be created on the central alert server with the role SAP_BC_ALM_ALERT_USER. The authorization objects contained in this role are S_OC_SEND and S_RFC.

refer the help:

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/b2/de0741375cf16fe10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm

also

check in ALRTCATDEF transaction what is the user maintained under the fixed receipent tab for that user check the email address in SU01 transaction.

Please check in transaction SCOT (you can give address of your SMTP server in order to send mails),

If it is configured then probably you need to personalized alert delivery. In alert inbox you can select personalized alert delivery and check for "Mail" option.

In SCOT you can see how many mails have beed sent via your XI system.

most of the time email problem is solved by correcting configuration in SCOT. For testing mail system click on System->short message and then send one message to yourself

Hi,

Alerting is an function of Runtime Workbench along with Message archiving,End-to-end monitoring, Performance Monitoring,Cache monitoring.

Alerting is no longer dependent on the configuration and activation of end-to-end

monitoring. Consequently, the delay between when an error occurs in message

processing and the creation of an alert is significantly reduced. Furthermore, you no

longer need to schedule the report SXMSALERT_PROCESS_DATA_GET as a

background job.The Runtime Workbench has CCMS Alert Monitor thru which

You can now configure one new CCMS Alert Monitor per Adapter Engine for

adapter-specific processing errors.Alerts triggered by the Runtime Workbench can now be forwarded to the CCMS Alert

Monitor and displayed there.

See also SAP Note 824039.

Thru Runtime Workbench we can access alert inbox, alert configuration

In process Integration with Central SAP Monitoring Infrastructure we Drill down to individual process steps and Use SAP Web AS Alert Framework.

In SAP Web AS Alert Framework, we Classify errors and Alert channels (such as e-mail) available.

Alert-Configuration

Objective: Active Monitoring

CCMS Alerts + message-oriented alerts

Based on SAP's Basis Alert Framework

Alerts propagated through E-Mail, SMS,

In Monitoring the SAP Exchange Infrastructure, Message Alerting is part of Runtime Workbench.

Hi,

For raising an alert you need to first configure the alert please follow the below weblog written by Michal Krawczyk

/people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2005/09/09/xi-alerts--step-by-step

Configuration steps are in XI ABAP Stack: go to transaction ALRTCATDEF

1) Define Alert Category

2) Create container elements which are used for holding an error messages.

3) Recipient Determination.

Alert can be triggered in different ways.

1) Triggering by Calling a Function Module Directly.

/people/bhavesh.kantilal/blog/2006/07/25/triggering-xi-alerts-from-a-user-defined-function

2) Triggering by Calling a Function Module in the Workplace Plug-In.

3) Triggering with an Event Linkage.

4) Triggering with the Post Processing Framework (PPF) or Message Control (MC)

5) Triggering from a Workflow.

6) Triggering from CCMS with autoreaction.

7) Triggering from BPM.
