/SAPSRM/OFFLINEAPPROVALSEND as background-job

[Former Member]

Dear All,

We would like to send offline-approval mails for our workitems with the report "SAPSRM/OFFLINEAPPROVALSEND".

This works very well in foreground, but not as batchJob.

If we start this report in background (with the same variant that works in foreground) we receive the following spool-message:

A total of 0 work items scanned

No work items found that required forwarding

Do you know this problem and do you know how to resolve it?

Best regards,

Thomas

Thomas,

How did you solve that?

I have the same problem.

Thanks,

you need to use WF-BATCH ID to execute this in background... Even then if this didn't work, you may need to check the security of WF-BATCH ID..

Thanks!!

Thanks for this information.

We tried to use the user WF-BATCH (with SAP ALL), but it doesn't resolve our problem. the mails are not created.

Hi,

Check next:

In the Customizing activity Change Organizational Plan (transaction PPOMA_BBP), you have set the attribute FORWARD_WI to 'X' for all users that are to use the offline approval function.

Thanks and Regards,

Ab.
