Prerequisites

You have assigned at least one user profile and one scenario to the user in Customizing.

Features

You can use the Web interface to do the following:

  • Query and display information from SAP Event Management about one or more event handlers, for example, about identification data (ID data)

  • Send event messages to SAP Event Management that might contain an attachment, for example

  • Display attachments for an event message

  • Visualize the actual position of an event handler and the event history on a geographical map (provided the event handler and Event Messages contain the geo coordinates)

  • Interactively personalize the presentation of data shown in the screen, by individually arranging the position of the screen building blocks, and additional personal settings such as the time zone in timestamp fields

  • Display the hierarchies of ID data

  • Display links to an internal or an external address, to another SAP system, or to another event handler

  • Display the document flow networks that belong to a certain event handler

    Only the Web interface displays the network. You cannot display the network in SAP Event Management. If you have the appropriate authorization in your user profile, the authorization concept allows you to display detailed information about the network and to execute a drilldown.
