Q: Is it possible to setup a GP Business Alert to notify someone when a scheduled SOP batch (or any other GP batch) fails to post? The background to this is we are using MC2 GP Agent module to autopost the imported SOP invoice batches. This will happen many times a day. To avoid the need for a person monitoring the automated posting process, we want an alert to be generated when the posting process fails.The response comes courtesy of Dave Bader, Moderator of the Partner Online Technical Community, enhanced by me with pictures to facilitate the explanation.
I have been looking at the SY00500 which is the Posting Definitions Master and I have an option that may work for you on the Business Alert.
1. Create a new Business Alert.
2. Select the Series as Company.
3. Select the Posting Definitions Master as the Table.
4. In the Define Alert Formula window select the table and use the column name Batch Error Messages 1 and add that to the formula.
5. Select the <> symbol.
6. In the Constants field enter in 2 single quotes ''.
7. Select the OR symbol.
8. Select Batch Error Messages 2 and add that field.
7. Select the <> symbol.
8. In the Constants field enter in 2 single quotes ''.
The formula should look like the following.
SY00500_T1.BCHEMSG1 <> '' OR SY00500_T1.BCHEMSG2 <> ''
9. Click next and select the notification information and the message text.
10. Click next and enter the schedule information.
11. Click Finish.
Below are the values that can be held in the error message fields.

Business Alerts can be a powerful tool to assist Microsoft Dynamics GP administrators in their daily tasks by keeping an eye on a number of activities ocurring throughout the system. Definitely, this is one to keep in the arsenal of tips and tricks and one that I expect to see in a future edition of 50 MORE Tips in 50 Minutes session presented by my friend MVP Mark Polino.
Until next post!
