Activating workflow notifications by default

[Former Member]

Hi!

We did all the necessary steps to configure workflow notification emails and when activated, the workflow notifications are working fine.

However, I fear that most users will forget to activate email notifications, since one has to click "Show advanced options" and select the appropriate option in the drop down box upon creation of a new workflow. (It's not possible to activate the notification option after a workflow has been created with notifications switched off.)

Is there any way to default to "always send notification emails" when a user creates a new workflow?

Thanks!

Hi Patricio,

I'm sorry it took me a while to get back to you. For some reason I didn't receive a notification email for this thread (although I should have) and thus thought no one had posted an answer.

Speaking of notification emails:

Thanks a lot for your answer and for pointing me to the chapter in the SAP help. In the meantime I spent several hours browsing the SAP help files, browsing the portal configuration and reading a SAP PDF on the subject ("How To... Configure the Univeral Worklist").

Unfortunately I could not make significant progress, since the UWL configuration seems to be scattered all over lots of different places in the portal.

This question may sound silly, but could you please point me to the exact spot where I can configure the Workflow Notification Settings you mentioned?

Thanks again for your efforts!

Jens
