Press Send Changes so that SAP receives all the information as maintained here so that they can communicate any information/update relevant on this tenant with that contact person. C4C SaaS will display a confirmation message at the bottom of the screen.

IT Contact person type generally receives all technical information related to this tenant like upgrade/downtime information etc


Please Note

Not every user or employee is automatically available as a contact in the value help. If you want to assign a contact and they are not available in the list you have the following options:

If you are an administrator

  • Assign the person you wish to be a contact to the Incident view of the Application and User Management work center. This will ensure they are then automatically available for selection as a contact person in the value help.
  • If you cannot assign the contact because their details are incomplete, update the details in the Personnel Administration work center, in the Regular Tasks view under Personal Changes. Changes to contact person details may take several hours to appear in the system.

If you are not an administrator

  • Report an incident to get the person included as a contact in the value help. For more information, see Report an Incident.
  • Register the person as a contact in the Business Center.

      Hi Pushkar,

      GREAT - thanks!  I know some customers also assign a distribution list so that when they receive emails from SAP it goes to more than one person.    That seems like a great tip!

      Thanks for this blog since it's so critical for SAP to contact the right person!

      Hi Pushkar,

      this sends mails to the customer no matter if it is a productive or test tenant, right? How can a customer achieve that only productive system mails will be send?

      Hello,

      How do we make the contact an administrator?  The administrator field is not available when I edit the contact.

      Thank you.
