notifications to be received into powl inbox and email inbox

Hi all,

when employee's data (say address data gets changed), the employee should receive notification(information) at following two places.

1. into his email address hisemail@comanay .com

2. into his powl inbox (http://eccserver:8000/sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/ibo_wda_inbox?sap-wd-configId=IBO_WDAC_POWL_INBOX)

the content of the notification could be something like:

subject: your address is changed

body: your address is changed to CityB, zipcode 12345, on 24-Aug-2014.

if it were just sending email, we can use bcs classes to send mails, with appropriate information. I tried this it by triggering the send mail functionality in user-exit of address infotype.

but we are not able to send this notification to POWL inbox.

for this requirement, is it recommended to use workflow / workflow tasks so that notifications can be sent to both email inbox and powl inbox separately.

is there any configuration/way to setup notifications to be sent to both email and powl inbox.

for notifications to be visible in powl inbox, what configurations have to be done.

thanks,
