How to config award email to bidder

[Former Member]

Hi expert,

We use BE in our project. I learned from SRM online help it is possible to config a award email to bidder after accepted bid approved. But I do not know how to config it. PS: other notification works well.

Pls see below statement from online help:

Bid workflow without approval

In this case no approval step is carried out.

The workflow calls up the object method SetReleased directly and the bid status changes to Bid Accepted.

(If the appropriate settings have been made in Customizing, the bidder receives an e-mail notifying him that he has won the bid invitation.)

Bidder Notification

Bidders are notified of RFx, auctions, and bids in the form of an e-mail created with Smart Form BBP_BIDINV_BID. You can use this Smart Form .

Features

You can change the Smart Form delivered by SAP to design the information in your notification exactly the way you want, without having to modify code. For more information, see the Smart Form documentation in SAP Help Portal at http://help.sap.com.

Note

If your system runs in multiple languages, you must translate any text changes you make.

End of the note.

Activities

In Customizing for SAP Supplier Relationship Management, choose SRM Server Business Add-Ins (BAdIs) Document Output Change Smart Forms for Document Output .

Enter the name of the new Smart Form you created in Customizing in the Business Add-In (BAdI) BBP_CHANGE_SF_BID.

Note

The import parameters for this BAdI are:

Business transaction category (BUS2200 for RFx or BUS2202 for bid)

Individual object status

Document's GUID

The export parameter is the name of the Smart Form being used.
