I submitted this over a month ago, but it seems to have gotten lost. So I thought I would post it (since i have had a couple requests for it):

Title:

Using iw_solution_email.ipl with TeamSite 6.7

Abstract:


Many people use the IW solutions email in workflows and as they migrate to 6.7, we avoid maintenance of the email_map file.

With TeamSite 6.7 and the tsusers.xml file, the need to maintain email addresses in 2 places is redundant. Since the TeamSite Admin GUI allows the capture of the email address, a change to the perl module that produces the emails will read the tsusers.xml file instead of the email map.


Instructions:

Download and unzip the attached file to a temporary location. There is an image (email_map.jpg) which shows the changes made. The other file is iwov_emailmap.pm.

If you use a TeamSite branch to manage IWHOME, (with a config or Admin branch), be certain you have the old version of IWHOME/iw-perl/vendor/lib/TeamSite/PT/iwov_emailmap.pm submitted, copy the new one and submit it to IWHOME.

Otherwise, traverse to IWHOME/iw-perl/vendor/lib/TeamSite/PT, rename iwov_emailmap.pm to iwov_emailmap.pm.orig and copy the new file in.

Note, the original email_map file can be used by changing line 117 to

my $ts67_users = 0; # change this to one to use $iwhome/conf/roles/tsusers.xml
