Documentation

Definition

Use

If several addresses are maintained for one communication type, the user in the SAP System can be reached under one of these addresses. One address can be set as theStandard Address.

The standard address is used for the following functions:

• When sending using the SMTP nodein SAPconnect, the home address of the communication type used is the one set as the sender address. The recipient can see this address in the sender information and can also reply directly to this address. The standard address is also transferred and can be used for incoming status notifications, for example.
• When sending using an RFC node in SAPconnect, the standard address of the communication type used is the one set as the sender address. The structure defined in the case of the RFC does not permit another address to be transferred, so the standard address is used for incoming status notifications too.

Dependencies

Example

The SAP users have the addresses of their exchange P.O. boxes in their standard communication type 'Internet Mail' as the home address and their Internet address in the SAP system as their standard address. Example:

• Home address:    [e-mail]
• Standard address:    [e-mail]

Sending using an SMTP node

The home address of the communication type 'Internet Mail' ([e-mail]) is used as the sender address. If a reply is sent to this address the user receives directly in the exchange postbox.

Sending using the RFC node

The standard address of the communication type 'Internet Mail' ([e-mail]) is used as the sender address. If a reply is sent to this address, it arrives back to the SAP system.

Example using a mail system group

The users should get all messages in their Microsoft Exchange postboxes. In the SAP system the mail system group is activated for this using the setting "Send Messages to the Home Address".

The address settings of the SAP users remain unchanged:

• Home address:    [e-mail]
• Standard address:    [e-mail]

Sending using an SMTP node

The home address of the communication type 'Internet Mail' ([e-mail]) is used as the sender address. If a reply is sent to this address the user receives directly in the exchange postbox.

Sending using the RFC node

The standard address of the communication type 'Internet Mail' ([e-mail]) is used as the sender address. If a reply is sent to this address it arrives back in the SAP system. It is then forwarded using the mail system group to the home address and the user gets it in the exchange postbox.
