Can the RECIPIENT object handle multiple email addresses?

[Former Member]

I'm working on a print program to email packing lists.

If I have multiple email addresses on the customer master, it is only emailing to the first email address on the list.

We want to send to ALL email addresses on the customer master.

I see in the print program where it is creating the RECIPIENT object using function modules

'ADDR_GET_NEXT_COMM_TYPE' and 'CONVERT_COMM_TYPE_DATA'.

I have tried experimenting with other methods to see if I can include multiple email addresses

and had no luck.  I'm not sure it is even possible.

My alternative would be to loop through a list of email addresses.  Create a RECIPIENT for each

email address one at a time and call the form separately for each recipient.

Before doing this, I was just wondering if there was a better way.

Let me know if there is another solution.

Thanks.

Hi Michael,

You can use class CL_BCS to send mail and here you can attach multiple recipients in TO, CC, BCC as well.

Let me know if you need as illustration on this.

Hi,

Option 2:

If the process is calling function SO_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1 , you can build multiple email addresses in the tables parameter "receivers".  Sample code:

data: docdata               like sodocchgi1,
         objpackt              type standard table of sopcklsti1,
         objpackt_wa        like line of objpackt,
         objtxtt                  type standard table of solisti1,
         objtxtt_wa            like line of objtxtt,
         reclistt                 type standard table of somlreci1,
         reclist_wa            like line of reclistt.

loop at gt_email into gt_email_wa.
     clear reclist_wa.
     reclist_wa-receiver = gt_email_wa-e_email_addr.
     reclist_wa-rec_type = c_u.
     append reclist_wa to reclistt.
   endloop.

call function 'SO_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1'
     exporting
         document_data               = docdata
         put_in_outbox                 = c_x
         commit_work                   = c_x
     tables
         packing_list                      = objpackt
         contents_txt                     = objtxtt
         receivers                          = reclistt
     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.

Keep in mind that this is within the context of creating a Sapscript form.

I have used other function modules in the past and sent to multiple recipients,

but that does not apply in this scenario.  The parameter MAIL_RECIPIENT is

an reference to object type RECIPIENT.  It seems that this object type only allows

ONE email address and doesn't look like I can do any more.

It looks like I can create an internal table of recipients and issue the sapscript form

for each recipient.  That will work, but I was wondering if there was another way of doing it.

* open form

call function 'OPEN_FORM'

     exporting

*           APPLICATION        = 'TX'

          archive_index      = toa_dara

          archive_params     = arc_params

          device             = lvf_device

          dialog             = ' '

          form               = tnapr-fonam

          language           = nast-spras

          options            = lvs_itcpo

          mail_sender        = sender_id     "LVS_SENDER

          mail_recipient     = recipient_id  "LVS_RECIPIENT

*           MAIL_APPL_OBJECT   = ' '

*           RAW_DATA_INTERFACE = '*'

*      IMPORTING

*           LANGUAGE           =

*           NEW_ARCHIVE_PARAMS =

*           RESULT             =

     exceptions

          canceled           = 1

          device             = 2

          form               = 3

          options            = 4

          unclosed           = 5

          mail_options       = 6

          archive_error      = 7

          others             = 8.

Hi Michel,

Your understanding is accurate, That u just get all the recipient's mail address in an Internal table.

And set recipient for send request inside loop on that internal table.
