EWM: Maintain Alert description

[sap_rocks]

Hello guys,

in EWM/MFS we defined custom error/exception codes, e.g. MFAL or MFAB. Additionally we added the writing of an alert to the exception codes. The alerts are visible in the alert monitor /SAPAPO/AMON1 or AMON3 but there is no description available. How can I maintain these descriptions so the user is able to understand the alert?

Many thanks in advance for your help!

Best regards,

Marius

Hi Marius,

Did you write any code related to alert ?

If no, you need to write code to fill alert table.

For example: Class-> /scwm/cx_mfs Method->SEND_ALERT and also system log. Call the same in ENh. Spot->/SCWM/ES_EXCP_EXC

More on Alert: Alert Management , Also check for custom alert.

Please let us know if you have further queries.

Kind Regards,

Ajit

Hi Ajit,

many thanks for the great answer - you saved us a lot of time :). With the information you provided I was able to solve this issue. In the enhancement spot "/SCWM/ES_EXCP_EXC" I use the method "EXECUTE_FUNCTIONS" to maintain the description for an alert.

This is the written source code and I hope that it will be helpful some time for anyone:

METHOD /scwm/if_ex_excp_exc_func~execute_functions.

  DATA: ls_puffered_exccode TYPE ziot_s_exccode,
        ls_exccode  TYPE /scwm/s_iexccode,
        ls_exccode_new  TYPE /scwm/s_iexccode.

  " Buffer exception codes and their descriptions
  CALL METHOD buffer_data.

  " Read out current exception code
  CALL METHOD io_excep->get_exception_attributes
    IMPORTING
      es_exccode = ls_exccode.

  " Read description of exception code if available
  READ TABLE gt_puffered_exccodes INTO ls_puffered_exccode
    WITH KEY exccode = ls_exccode-exccode.

  " Set description for alert
  IF ls_puffered_exccode IS NOT INITIAL.

    ls_exccode_new = ls_exccode.
    sy-langu = 'D'. " Maybe you have also to set the right language flag like I had to do it
    ls_exccode_new-descr = ls_puffered_exccode-description.

    CALL METHOD io_excep->set_exception_attributes
      EXPORTING
        iv_lgnum  = iv_lgnum
        is_exccode = ls_exccode_new.

  ENDIF.

ENDMETHOD.

...and the sub-method "puffer_data":

METHOD puffer_data

  IF gt_puffered_exccodes IS INITIAL.

    " Use your own table to select your custom alert-related exception codes
    SELECT * FROM zxxx_t_exccode
      INTO TABLE gt_puffered_exccodes.

  ENDIF.

ENDMETHOD.

Best regards,

Marius
