RSWUWFML2 and RSWUWFMLEC

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

Is that mandatory that we need to schedule both reports(RSWUWFMLEC and RSWUWFML2) inorder to get mails to the approver during the workflow process?

what happens if we stop scheduling RSWUWFML2?

Kindly suggest which one to go for

Hi,

Generally the report RSWUWFMLEC (or a customized version of it) is scheduled to send offline e-mails to approver in order to process Shopping Cart approval and thereby give decison via email only (without logging on to portal). The mail is triggered via FM SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1 used in the report.The mail text is picked up from the workitem text in relevant task of approval workflow. It determines the resposible manager by getting the agents of the workitem "Approval of Shopping cart" via FM RH_WI_AGENTS_GET.

You can unschedule the other report RSWUWFML2 if you dont want the approver to receive a mail with link to SRM portal.The first one RSWUWFMLEC should be sufficient if you have requirement of sending offline approval emails

Hope this is helpful.

Hi,

Kindly go through this.

RSWUWFMLEC : This job is scheduled to enable offline approval functionality in SRM and to allow the work items in the SRM user's inbox to be transferred to their preferred e-mail client (e.g. Outlook, Lotus Notes, GroupWise, etc.). E-mails are only sent to those users for which the user attributes (FORWARD_WI) "Flag: Forward work item,'' are maintained in PPOMA_BBP. This is useful for users that do not use the integrated inbox of the EBP system, so that another mail client can process work items in their usual mail client.

RSWUWFML2 : It can create a link in an email message that executes a workflow item .That link can take the recipient to the appropriate transaction of the exact document that needs to be processed

Can anyone share how the mails are triggered to resp managers in our organisation?
