In this activity, you make the necessary settings in order to send a mail from the MRP list or the stock/requirements list to the MRP controller for the material displayed and to be able to integrate this mail connection into a little workflow.
If you integrate the sending to the MRP controller into a workflow, the system automatically also sends the stock/requirements list for the material. You can thus be sure that the recipient actually calls up the list and checks it.
In this activity, you define which system users can use the function. If you do not make this setting, the workflow cannot be started.
Make sure that the Basis customizing for the application component WFM (Workflow-Management) has been executed fully.
SAP recommends that you define the tasks in the workflow as general tasks. They are then available for all system users.
