Batch processing emails stuck in SOIN

[Former Member]

Hi,

We use offline approval by email for some of our approval processes in ESS/MSS, e.g. Travel & Expense Forms.

We recently noticed that our ABAP code processing the approval emails had a bug, preventing the approval completed successfully. We discovered the bug, maked the necessary corrections and now it works fine.

There are many approval emails (~2000) that are residing in SAP inbox, which were sent in the timeframe where the bug was not fixed yet. We can now select these emails in SOIN and choose "Send again" from the menu, so that the bug-free code can process it and approval is completed. However, this can be done one by one for each email, multiple selection is not supported in SOIN.

How can we process these emails in a batch process? Does anyone had any problem like this before?

Any kind of help is appreciated, many thanks in advance.

Hello,

Maybe you can use the "eCATT" tools to do it in a batch input.

For more about "eCATT" tools, please check the following Tutorial.

Maybe LSMW tools also can help.
