Hi,

First read the customizing documentation in SPRO for Release Procedure for Purchase Order.

also just search the workflow forum for PO release workflow settings and logistics MM forum.

Hi Thangam,

Do you want to send mail only to specific user on PO release?

If yes then you can find out the BADI/UserExit which will get trigger on PO release and write the code logic for mail trigger.

Refer below SAP thread to send mail to specified users using OOPs:

Send email from ABAP with class CL_BCS - Code Gallery - SCN Wiki

Why?

That is not how functional requirements work.

The requirement should be " we want an email to be sent to the vendor email upon release of a po" . Then if it makes more sense to just put it in a badi/exit then that is how the requirement is fulfilled.

Tthere could be additional requirements like the option of finding out easily using SAP standard reporting on how many emails are sent, etc. And then it might make more sense to do it with workflow.

Hi Thankgam,

Please check the BADI-ME_CHECK_ALL_ITEMS and write the code logic to send mail to vendor.
