ALI to RAW format for triggerring mail

[Former Member]

Hello all,

i have a requirement wherein i have to send a classical report output to PDF and trigger mail.

Have almost did that using CALL FUNCTION 'SAVE_LIST', CALL FUNCTION 'TABLE_COMPRESS'.

But whenever CALL FUNCTION 'SAVE_LIST' is getting executed the output of this function module is always in

ALI format.

Is there any way to trigger mail using ALI format??Should i have to convert ALI format to OTF or RAW and then only i have to trigger the mail?For this when i used CALL FUNCTION 'SX_OBJECT_CONVERT_ALI_RAW' it gives me error 'Message cannot be processed as it cannot be converted' eventhough in maintainence view it been maintained accordingly for ALI and RAW.

Waiting for your replies.

Is there a way to trigger a classical output as PDF attachment through mail without using SPOOL ID?
