Environment

  • SAP Business ByDesign
  • SAP Cloud for Customer

Resolution

  1. Go to Service Control Center Work center.
  2. Go to Contact Details view.
  3. Select Create Contact Assignment button.
  4. Select the Contact type.
  5. Fill form with the require information.
  6. Select Send Changes and Close button.

After Contact type is maintained, it will be displayed in the Requested / In Process Contacts list and contacts will shown in active list within 1 business day.

Once the above steps are followed and E-mail ID is maintained, IT Contacts have to subscribe for Cloud System Notification Subscriptions(CSNS) to receive notifications sent from SAP.

Cloud System Notification Subscriptions application allows SAP Cloud Customers to configure, customize, and subscribe to the SAP Cloud Service notifications.

Within Cloud System Notification Subscriptions, you can set your preferences for which types of notifications you would like to receive in case of planned and unplanned downtimes as well as customer communication notifications. You can manage the existing subscriptions, add new ones, and set notification recipients.

  • Manage the existing subscriptions for each cloud service in your portfolio.
  • Add and configure new subscriptions to receive notifications most relevant for you.
  • See and edit the notification recipients for each cloud service individually (given the super admin rights).

IMPORTANT NOTE:

  1. For IT contacts it is mandatory to subscribe for CSNS once the  E-mail ID is maintained under contact type else customer will not receive any notifications from SAP.
  2. User who have S-User ID can access CSNS.
  3. Customer can access CSNS from  SAP for Me or Cloud Availability Center or CSNS Direct Link.
  4. CSNS is designed as Self Service, so the customer will have to maintain it or remove it from their end.
