  1. Hi,

    I have a question for email listener.

    Our customers send the Outlook emails as attachments and it a I know it does not store it.

    I changed the system properties to accept the .pst files as well . But it still does not work?

    Is there a way we can make Outlook emails as attachments in Maximo?

  2. Hi Bruno

    I want to update workorder object using email listener. I have created a new action class for WO(LSNRBPUpdateWOAction) same as which is available for SR(LSNRBPUpdateSRAction) and I have made the below changes in LSNRActionHelper in the method performSecuityCheck()
    if (formatMode == 0)
    {
    objectName = "WORKORDER";
    action = inboundComm.getFreeFormAction();
    actionStr = action;
    if (action.equalsIgnoreCase("UPDATE"))
    actionStr = "SAVE";
    }
    and I modified the workflow also for WO object but when I send an email for updating a field in WORKORDER am getting the below error message.

    psdi.util.MXApplicationException BMXAA4350E – Cannot initiate workflow LSNRBP in the background.
    BMXAA0979E – Error in updating object WORKORDER in action for inbound communication 11,423.
    BMXAA0954E – Error in performing security check in action helper for object WORKORDER for inbound communication 11,423.
    BMXAA0953E – Authorization fails for inbound communication 11,423 for object WORKORDER with unique id 0.
