what is the Alert Query Syntax ?

Posted on Aug 01, 2004 at 05:59 AM 475 Views

can anyone help me with the syntax for the SQL query for an alert.

My requirement is really basic.

I want to send an alert to user A when user B creates an order for a particular customer.

I created the alert as usual , ticked the User A as recepient and ticked active and assigned my query, which was smilar to

SELECT DISTINCT ('TRUE') FROM

ORDR WHERE ORDR.CardCode = 'CustNo'

while I see that my query returns true, it does not trigger the alert. I hav set my frequency to one minute and the alert is an internal one too.

Thank You,

Indika.

    When I execute a SELECT DISTINCT query in SAP it does not return a distinct list. When I execute the same query in SQL Query, I get a distinct list.

    This may have something to do with your problem (especially if you are checking the record count).

      Dear All,

      if i'm not mistaken, Alert Management Queries can't except Variable entry from Screen (eg. $[RDR1.ITEMCODE], etc) so the query that can be run for Alert Management Queries are SQL Queries that do not include Parameter entries mentioned above.

      but then again i have never tried such case during implementation. usually i prefer to use approval procedure for queries that needs Screen Entries.

    I have been fiddling around with the query and I found that a simple query like

    SELECT T1.* FROM OCRD T1

    worked and gave me the alert with the query result but

    this query

    SELECT T2.* FROM OCRD T1, ORDR T2 WHERE T2.CardCode = T1.CardCode AND ( T1.Priority = 1 OR T1.Priority = 2 ) AND ltrim(rtrim(T2.CardCode)) = ltrim(rtrim($[$4.0.0]))

    did not , even though it does give me a result when run as a query.
