Adding sound to message

Former Member — Thu, 08 Dec 2011 04:47:38 GMT

is there a way to add sound to a message or pop-up message?

when my users work in MIGO transaction using Barcode Reader they dont put attention to the pop up messages that display on the screen , i want to add sound so they'll know that someting happened and they will have to look on the screen

thanx

Sounds are controlled through GUI options.

Click on Alt+F12 in SAP GUI window and click options, therein you can control the way notifications behave including sound. This needs settings on the individual user PCs

Hi,

I think, you cannot give sound in all systems. I feel, some settings to be done in every PC, which is not feasible. I may be wrong also.

However, why do you need sound? If the message is pop-up message, then there is no way of missing it, as you have to click on some button to proceed. And if you have any status messages, then you can make it a warning, hence until and unless user clicks enter, it will not proceed.

The problem is that the Barcode Reader does an automatic ENTER after it reads the material enter - so the popup dont wait for the user to click 'ENTER'
