Former Member — Mon, 08 Oct 2007 07:30:48 GMT

Hi Experts,

I am trying to send a mial with text attachement from the r/3. Everything is working fine except the data format in the text file.

I have filled the contetents table as shown below.


data:  word1(15) type c,
       word2(15) type c,
       tab_space(15) type c,
       idx type i.

word1 = 'firstword'.
word2 = 'secondword'.
tab_space = '      '.
idx = 1.
do 3 times.

concatenate word1   word2    into contents .
*insert wa_contents into table contents .

append contents.

*concatenate word1   word2    into contents .
*insert wa_contents into table contents .

append contents.

enddo.

and the packing list table as shown below


  DESCRIBE TABLE contents LINES count.
  REFRESH packing_list.
  packing_list-transf_bin = 'X'.
  packing_list-head_start = 1.
  packing_list-head_num = 1.
  packing_list-body_start = 1.
  packing_list-body_num = count.
  packing_list-doc_type = 'RAW'.

  APPEND packing_list.
  CLEAR packing_list.

* Create attachment notification
  packing_list-transf_bin = ''.
  packing_list-head_start = 1.
  packing_list-head_num   = 1.
  packing_list-body_start = 1.
  packing_list-body_num   = count.

  packing_list-doc_type   =  'TXT'.
  packing_list-obj_descr  =  'Material Infotype'.
  packing_list-obj_name   =  'Material Infotype'.
  packing_list-doc_size   =  count * 255.
  APPEND packing_list.

the mail sending code is shown below.


  CALL FUNCTION 'SO_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1'
    EXPORTING
      document_data                  = document_data
*   PUT_IN_OUTBOX                    = ' '

      packing_list                   = packing_list
*   OBJECT_HEADER                    =
    contents_bin                     = attachment
    contents_txt                     = contents
*   CONTENTS_HEX                     =
*   OBJECT_PARA                      =
*   OBJECT_PARB                      =
      receivers                      = real_recipients
* EXCEPTIONS
*   TOO_MANY_RECEIVERS               = 1
*   DOCUMENT_NOT_SENT                = 2
*   DOCUMENT_TYPE_NOT_EXIST          = 3
*   OPERATION_NO_AUTHORIZATION       = 4
*   PARAMETER_ERROR                  = 5
*   X_ERROR                          = 6
*   ENQUEUE_ERROR                    = 7
*   OTHERS                           = 8
            .

The problem is in the attachment file, the data is appearing as shown below:

firstwordsecondword

the second and third lines are not starting from the begining of new line. I do not understand why. Is that something problem with the packing parameters.

thanks

hi just modify your concatenate statement:


data: c_tab type char2 value '  '.  
do ...

concatenate word1   word2    into contents separated by c_tab .
append contents.
clear    contents.
enddo.

Hope That Helps

I have written something like the below and it works for me please check.


DATA: t_data TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF char50,
      w_data TYPE char50.

DATA:  word1(15) TYPE c,
       word2(15) TYPE c,
       tab_space(15) TYPE c,
       idx TYPE i.

word1 = 'firstword'.
word2 = 'secondword'.
tab_space = '      '.
idx = 1.

DO 3 TIMES.
  CONCATENATE word1   word2    INTO w_data SEPARATED BY tab_space.
  APPEND w_data TO t_data.
  CLEAR  w_data.
ENDDO.

LOOP AT t_data INTO w_data.
  WRITE:/ w_data.
ENDLOOP.

and here is my output:

firstword               secondword
firstword               secondword
firstword               secondword

Hope That Helps

Hi,

try like this.

DATA: t_data TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF char50,

w_data TYPE char50.

DATA: word1(15) TYPE c,

word2(15) TYPE c,

tab_space(15) TYPE c,

idx TYPE i.

word1 = 'firstword'.

word2 = 'secondword'.

tab_space = ' '.

idx = 1.

DO 3 TIMES.

CONCATENATE word1 word2 INTO w_data SEPARATED BY tab_space.

APPEND w_data TO t_data.

CLEAR w_data.

ENDDO.

and change your pack list part like this .

t_objpack-transf_bin = 'X'.

t_objpack-head_start = 1.

t_objpack-head_num = 1.

t_objpack-body_start = 1.

t_objpack-body_num = count.

t_objpack-doc_type = 'TXT'.

t_objpack-obj_name = 'text1'.

t_objpack-obj_descr = 'Txt2'.

t_objpack-doc_size = count * 255.

t_objpack-mess_type = space.

APPEND t_objpack.

CLEAR t_objpack.

Try the following:

packing_list-doc_type   = 'RAW' " 'TXT'.
  packing_list-obj_descr  =  'Material Infotype'.
  packing_list-obj_name   =  'Material Infotype'.
  packing_list-doc_size   =  count * 255.
  APPEND packing_list.

Hope That Helps
