Email a smartform

Former Member — Wed, 10 Dec 2008 18:30:36 GMT

When a transaction is saved, I need to email a form.

I copied the standard prgm /SMB40/RVADOR01 and added the functionality for emailing the smartform w.r.t

https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/wiki?path=/display/snippets/smartformtoMailasPDF+attachment.

I am trying to issue the o/p from the transaction.

But I am still not able to receive the email.I can see that my o/p type is configured for medium 1, 2 & 5 in NACE.

Where am I missing and is any other config is required for this?

Thanks

Kiran

Kiran, for some reason, SDN would not let me post this reply in the Forum. I got an error saying I was using forbidden words/phrases ??? So I emailed you my solution.

Hi Kenneth,

Thanks a lot for your email.

I faced some issues in the code you sent me and I emailed to you.

Regards,

Kiran

Re: Email a smartform

Hi Kiran,

are you able to see the email in SOST transaction.

If yes, then your system is not configured to send mails to external ids. Please check with Basis team to configure the same.

If its not reflected in SOST, then check whether the spool is generated in SP01. If spool is not generated, then you are missing something in the program code viz. print parameters etc.

If spool is created, then check whether your program is able to pick up the spool contents.

Best regards,

Prashant

Hi Prashant,

Unfortunately, I cannot find any thing in SOST & in SP01 also.

But when I see the print preview, I can see the o/p of my smartform.

Do you think, I am missing some thing?

I copied the standard driver program and am using it with out doing any modifications to it.

Thanks

Kiran

Hi Kiran,

Are you passing the output device type parameter in the Smartform FM with value as 'LOCL' or 'LP01'.

That would be required.. else fire a print & check if spool is generated & further processing is done.

Use FM SSFCONVERT_OTF_AND_MAIL

Best regards,

Prashant

Hi Prashanth,

I moved my developments to test system.

I can see a spool getting created now. How do I proceed from here....

But its strange that in dev its not getting created.

Thanks

Kiran

well the wiki i have mentioned is a z fm and we have been using it as a reuse object in our project without any issues please look at all parameters if u r missing anything.

Re: Email a smartform

Former Member — Fri, 12 Dec 2008 15:42:16 GMT

please post the code of ur print program it would help us to analyze it to see what ur missing.

Re: Email a smartform

Former Member — Tue, 16 Dec 2008 15:04:14 GMT

Thanks to every one who shared their thoughts.

I solved my problem.

I just copied the standard print program and I didnot do any thing more than that to handle the emailing functionality.

I had some config issues and that cleared my issues.

Thanks

Kiran
