This can be perfectely done using Tcode ALRTCATDEF.

1. go to ALRTCATDEF

2. select classification "Process Chains"

3. click on display/change

4. double-click on "error in a process of a process chain"

5. click on "fixed recipients"

6. write in your username (you have to maintain your e-mail address in SU01 for that to work)

7. save

8. go to your process chain (rspc)

9. go into edit mode

10. from the menu, select Process chain -> attributes -> alerting

11. check "send alerts if errors occur".

Hi Rahul,

What Mr V. says could be a solution. But if your system has the configuration (SMTP) done to send emails.

Other steps can be done in the Process Chain:

1.- Edit the Process Chain

2.- Right click on the process that you want to send an email -> Create Message

3.- It will ask you, if you want to configurate for Error, Succesfull, or anyway

4.- Create the variant

5.- Writte the "Subject"

6.- Edit Document: writte the message that you want

7.- Update destination list: writte the email, and put as type Internet address

8.- Save twice

Thank you for your reply

is there any way that I can get a message for the whole process chain (like the consolidation of the messages for the variants which are failed Eg:If there are 50 variants in the Process chain and if there are 10 variants failed in the PC,So Is there any way that I can get an 1 Email for the whole process chain which can tell all the 10 Variants that are failed)

Thanks

HI Rahul,

You can create an "OR" process, and for each step with error join them with the OR process. It will send one email for each error.

If you create a "XOR" process, it will send one email with the first error that arrives.
