Basically in short : SCOT is a Tcode to send emails from your Abap system to external system.

In SAPconnect administration (transaction SCOT), choose Settings ® Device Types for Format Conversion.

Specify for each printer-dependent format (PDF, PCL, PS and TXT) the device type that is to be used for the formatting.

A list of the device types available can be found in SAPNet note 8928. This list is continually updated.

It is indicated in the list whether a format is specified as an output format for a node.

You can go throught this link. It will definately help you.

Hi ,

SCOT (SAPconnect Administration) is the transaction code for doing the e-mail settings. When we need to send and recive e-mails from SAP we need to configure SCOT along with SICF and SU01.

Hi,

SCOT is noting but t-code .But you will not have access to open this t-code.

You can receive all the receipts in general mailbox and then build rules so that you can send a copy to the appropriate person depending on a key word in subject line or in the body or some other criteria.

Sending Mail

Transactions

· Transaction SCOT u2013 SAPconnect: Administration

Set up the server configuration for the SMTP protocol. The SMTP node for the mail service must be active.

· Maintain an e-mail address in the user master record. This is used as a sender address.

Please reward points if it helps

Thanks

Hi,

The SCOT is the transaction to custimize all comunication methods, in particular to send a mail from SAP.

The program RSCONN01 is to send the mail (or other kind of message) really, when a message is created, it's not sent but stored in a container with status "Ready to be sent". This container can be managed by scot.

The program RSCONN01 gets all messages from the container and send them.

It's usually created a period jobs in order to run RSCONN01.

Thanks,

Vijaya.
