Explain Packing_List parameter in SO_OBJECT_SEND

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

I do not understand the parameters that need to be passed to FM SO_OBJECT_SEND.

I've set all the parameters for the FM, still the email is not sent. I am trying to attach an XLS file using this FM. I also need to encrypt the mail.

Can anyone provide me with a program which sends an XLS file using the said FM.

I've got programs sending a PDF using this FM which does not really help me.

Please reply asap.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Aparna.

  gd_doc_data-doc_size = 1.

* Populate the subject/generic message attributes
  gd_doc_data-obj_langu = sy-langu. "language
  gd_doc_data-obj_name  = 'SAPRPT'. " file name
  gd_doc_data-obj_descr = psubject. "mail subject
  gd_doc_data-sensitivty = 'F'.  

* Describe the body of the message
  clear it_packing_list.
  refresh it_packing_list.
  it_packing_list-transf_bin = space.
  it_packing_list-head_start = 1. "start position
  it_packing_list-head_num = 0.  "Start Number 
  it_packing_list-body_start = 1. "Body start Position
  describe table it_message lines it_packing_list-body_num.
  it_packing_list-doc_type = 'RAW'. " doc type RAW for Text *XLS for excel
  append it_packing_list.

Hi,

Parameter Descriptions

Either RECEPIENT or DLI must be specified. If the mail should be sent to several people, create a distribution list and supply its name for DLI.

Internal table TEXT should contain the body of the mail message.

While this function module can be used as it is, it is just an example. SO_OBJECT_SEND is very comprehensive and many of the features are omitted from this example. You are encouraged to examine SO_OBJECT_SEND, see all the available features, and change this function module to suit your requirements.
