How to insert hyperlinks in email generated from Workflow

Former Member — Thu, 17 Sep 2009 07:35:41 GMT

Hi Friends,

We have a requierement where in we need to send an email to approver based on status change in the transaction. For eg, when the status is changed from Inprogress to "to be approved, an email should be sent automatically to the approver.

Approver should have the flexibility to approve/reject the request by selecting the hyperlinks in the email.

Can some ohe guide us on how to achieve this functionality.

Regards,

Udaya

First of all you need to create custom function module to send mail that contains HTML data for that you can function module SO_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1.

Steps

1. Create the HTML page for the email format for your reference.

for eg

<html>

<body>

60001226 has submitted Purchase Order 4500169047 for your Approval.

</body>

</html>

2. Code the above created HTML page format in the ABAP as shown below

for eg

*"Body of mail

<html> TO li_object_content.

<body> TO li_object_content.

CLEAR lw_object_content.

CONCATENATE iv_buyer_id text-003 iv_buyer_name text-004 INTO lw_object_content SEPARATED BY space.

APPEND lw_object_content TO li_object_content.

iv_buyer_id is a variable for dynamic data

Code the complete page like this.

In the packing list pass doc type as HTM.

3. Call the above created funcition module with receivers using workflow step.

4. For implementing approval or rejection by clicking you need to create the function module with webservice.

When user clicks the hyperlink the webservice is called for approval or rejection.
