Alerts. Pls advice urgent

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I have 2 BPMs scenarios in which I am getting data from different system and sending resposne back to different systems.

Pls let me know can I use Michael Blog

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

for alerts like if sender/receiver services are down, if mapping errors are there for different transformations in 2 BPMs.

Can I use the above blog only and can I avoid Alert's Container Opertaion and Control Step in BPM?

Also pls let me know how to send emails from alerts.

What setting I have to do in Alert Category.Pls send link/blog for that.

Regards

Hi Satya,

Thanks for response.

My Question 1 --

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

Is the above blog sufficient enough for alerts like sender/receiver services are down, mapping errors etc.

even if I am using BPM?

My Question 2 --

Somebody told me that you need to provide e mail address to your profile for alert category and alert will start sending emails also automatically.

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 in the above Blog

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

To send email to mail 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
