Link in e-Mail to GP

[Former Member]

Hello,

I have realized a GP approval workflow. Is it possible to send an e-mail to the user who is involved next containing a link which directly directs to the step the user has to perfom?

Hello Alexander,

you might perhaps use a callable object of type 'Send an E-Mail in Background with Attachment' for this, see also:

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwce10/helpdata/en/fb/5e6f4169e25858e10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm

You could use a HTML mail template with the replacement 'sy.workitemurl' in it, see also here:

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwce10/helpdata/en/5d/a71342cb385333e10000000a155106/frameset.htm

=> like this you should be able to send mails with a link to the current work item. However, I'm not sure if this will work when there is more than one active work item...

Cheers,

Hi,

I also want pass an url to the task in an e-mail notification. So I used an HTML-Template with the sy.workitemurl replacement.

But the url I get looks like this:

http://<hostname>:/webdynpro/dispatcher/sap.com/caf_eugp_uirt/Runtime?app.processId=84a180&app.taskId=

As you can see the port is missing. When I add the port manually, the link works.

Any idea why the port is not added?

Thanks in advance,

Hello Aydin,

which version of the CE do you use? Maybe you should update to the latest version.

Hi Alexander,

I'm running CE 7.1 SP3. Is this a known bug in SP3?

This is how I added the url to the HTML-Template:

`{

writeln(sy.workitemurl);

}`

Is there something wrong with it?

Regards,

Aydin

Not that I'm aware of. However, I'm using SP5.

`{
writeln(sy.workitemurl);
}`
Is there something wrong with it?

Looks fine for me.

Hi Alexander,

thanks for your answers. Any other ideas?

How does your template look like?

Any other ideas?

Maybe your configuration is erroneous, so that the port should be added to the URL but is read from a place where it is not correctly defined.

How does your template look like?

Except for the { } the templates looks identical.

Do you know where the port can be configured?

Unfortunately, not. I just did the plain installation and performed the documented configuration steps.

So did I. Maybe it's really because I'm using SP3, which seems unlikely to me...
