automatic serial number generaton in smartforms

Former Member — Fri, 23 Mar 2007 08:12:13 GMT

Hi all,

I want to generate a unique serial number for everytime I generate a smartform for an employee in SAP hr. Please suggest how to do that. I want to store the same serial number for a personal number - so that when the smartform is generated for an employee again, the previous data should come in the form and not the new one. Pls sugggest.

Also I want to know how to mail the smart form generated to the concerned persons sap inbox and to his/her e mail address (yahoo mail or g mail). Please suggest how to achieve the same.

Thanks

No, I dont want to mail that way. I know how to generate the smartform in PDF format using the ABAP program. Now I want to automatically send the form to a persons e mail using abap code and a button which is ' mail form to this person.

Sorry. This is not what I want. Its not solving my requirement at all. M using the driver program to pass the data to smartform, designing the screen where the user would have buttons to print form, download to pdf - ( i know these both) and to mail the form generated to a persons' e mail box - (i want to learn this - donno any thing about this.) . also a button to send the smartform to concerned persons SAP inbox.

And of course serial number generation for the smartform everytime - storing it in ztable along with the data passed from screen to form and when the same emplouyee genetates the form, same data from ztable comes and not the new one - using that unique serial number.....
