Changing Notification Status-After Saving in IW21

[Former Member]

Hello, I am new to this forum so I apologize if the subject of my post has already been addressed...

I need to write an ABAP program to change the status of a notification to "NOCO" after the user saves the notification in IW21.

I know that while in IW21, the notification number is a temporary one, and a permanent one isn't assigned until the user saves new notification and the screen closes.

I think I can record the steps to complete the notification in IW22 via a BDC, but I need to capture the permanent notification number that was created on save and exit of IW21...

Any advice as to how I can retrieve the new notification number would be appreciated, or if another approach is best...

My thanks in advance.

Hi,

When you save a notification, do you get a message indicating the number of the notification just created? If so, after the IW21 transaction is complete, in your program, use the appropriate system variable SY-MSGV1, SY-MSGV2, SY-MSGV3 or SY-MSGV4. One of them should contain the notification number.

Yes, I do see a message at the bottom of the screen that shows the notification number... This is exactly what I need...

Thank you very much !!!

You can make use of the customer exit EXIT_SAPLMCI1_001, it triggers after save.

And the enhancement name is MCI10001

Hi Kim,

I think you can use BAPI_ALM_NOTIF_DATA_MODIFY and BAPI_ALM_NOTIF_SAVE.

Use this exit.

QQMA0014 - EXIT_SAPMIWO0_020. (Checks before saving a notification)

Be careful not to use a commit work in this user exit.. It can cause problems.
