Dear All,

We are aware of the configuration required for creating Alert category using ALRTCATDEF . But need to know whnether there are any other Pre Configuration steps that needs to be taken into account before going for configuring alert categories.

I have two doubts

1> Is SCOT related configuration required ?

2> Do we need the CCMS configuration also in place before going for the alerts.

Thanks

Hi

Basically in short : SCOT is a Tcode to send emails from your Abap system to external system.

So if you are going to sent email from your R/3 system you have to configure SCOT

In SAPconnect administration (transaction SCOT), choose Settings ® Device Types for Format Conversion.

Specify for each printer-dependent format (PDF, PCL, PS and TXT) the device type that is to be used for the formatting.

A list of the device types available can be found in SAPNet note 8928. This list is continually updated.

It is indicated in the list whether a format is specified as an output format for a node.

Do we need the CCMS configuration also in place before going for the alerts

--> For Email alerts you need CCMS configuration.

1. SCOT is a transaction code , this will be used when you send alerts to E-mails.

2. Yes, but For Email alerts you need CCMS configuration.

Please reward points if it helps

Hey,

For alerts you need.

SCOT:- for email purpose(schedule a job and give smtp mail host)

SU01:- assign the email address to the fix recipient

ALRTCATDEF:-Give the message and the fixed recipient

ALRTRULE(in case if no bpm): to give the scenario information.

ALRTINBOX:- for purpose of personalisation

-- Settings in SCOT are required if you will go for Email Notification Alert in Outlook etc.

Hi,

If u need to send the Alert in Email then u have to do the SCOT related configurations.

If ur doing normal Alert then there is no need for CCMS configurations.

Check some links to create an Alert.

You have to do SMTP Configuration for EMail and SMS.....
