Certificate Retrieval with Output Processing (SAP Library

Certificate Retrieval with Output Processing

Use

When customers retrieve a certificate for a delivery that involves output processing on the Web, they can call up:

Expected certificates

Retrieved certificates

Expected and retrieved certificates

Before the list of certificates is displayed, the system checks whether the contact person (the Internet user) corresponds to the certificate recipient. As a result, the partner number and partner role for the output are compared to the log-on data for the Internet user.

Prior to displaying all certificates for the customer, the system checks, if the contact person who is logged on is assigned to the customer master for which the certificate is destined.

Example

Mr. Smith logs on to the system and wants to display all certificates for his company XY. The system displays:

All certificates that are addressed to him personally
All certificates that are addressed to the main address of the customer
All certificates that are addressed to Mr. Miller, who is also assigned to the customer master XY as a contact person

Prerequisites

In Customizing for Quality certificates, the output type of the output to be processed is entered as "certificate output" with transmission medium 8, and the indicator Internet certificate is set.

Features

There are the following possibilities for output processing:

Status of output processing	Meaning
Yellow light for output for delivery item in the SAP system	The certificate output has not yet been processed in the sender system. There is an entry in the list for "expected certificates". The Internet user triggers output processing. If the Internet user has tried to retrieve the certificate on the Web, the output status is changed from not processed to processed correctly or processed incorrectly.
Green or red light for output of delivery item in the SAP system	The certificate output has already been processed (correctly or incorrectly) in the sender system. There is an entry in the list for "retrieved certificates". The Internet user triggers repeated output processing. (If this is not allowed, the hyperlink will be deactivated.)
