POWL Multiple backends HR MSS with SRM

[Former Member]

Hi,

Following Sagar's blog I've set up a user in both backend systems that has both MSS and SRM tasks to approve, I can see the MSS tasks but not any of the SRM work items.

RFC connection is up between HR & SRM for **current** user, user exists within both backend systems..., not sure what I'm missing

Within the Connected backend systems for inbox, wasn't sure what to put, so set up a few varients connecting to SRM system/client:

IBO_WDA_INBOX

MANAGER_MSS_INBOX_2

SAPSRM_IBO_INBOX

Anyone successfully set one of these up?

Each application has its own inbox Combining data from multiple backends has been documented at the below link:- http://help.sap.com/saphelp_aii710/helpdata/en/3e/c962ad1a4646d68fac2e20 bd119522/content.htm If you are refering to MSS then there is another document recently released on SDN, use link below:- http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-31014

To use this function, you must activate the business function "FND, Multiple Back-End Capabilities for Inbox" and perform the activities "Define Exceptions and Assign Connected Back-End Systems to Inbox" in Customizing, under > Cross-Application Components   > Processes and Tools for Enterprise Applications   > Inbox

Hi Siddharth,

Thanks for your reply but the first link doesnt work and the second is a link to the blog I mentioned in my OP...

I have performed all the configurations mentioned within the Blog and it doesnt work.., when I queried this with SAP they said it was only possible if the APPLID in both systems were the same - this didn't make much sense to me.
