Sending a hyperlink through mail

[Former Member]

HI all,

I am sending a mail to outlook mailbox of a user using FM SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1. In that i need to send a link also. When the user clicks on that link it should go to a webpage.

Example : Mail format.

Hi,

Please <b>click here</b>.

thanks.

when user clicks on the "Click here" words it should point to webpage(html). So if anyone has come across such requirement please give your ideas.

Thanks in advance,

Shyam.

PS: Please go through the FM which i mentioned. In that FM data is taken as text elements.

Hi,

I am not sure that this is possible. Maybe if you build your email as an HTML and pass it to the FM; you'll have to play with it...

Cant you have a text like:

Please click on the following link: <b>sdn.sap.com</b>

The recipient's email client should convert this into a hyperlink automatically (worst case you might have to add "http://" in front of the link).

This would be much easier

Thanks,

use the fm CALL_BROWSER which might be a lot good help for u.

here is a very sample code..

data : link type string value 'google.com'.(pass the comments whatever u want..

CALL FUNCTION 'CALL_BROWSER'

EXPORTING

URL = 'link'

• WINDOW_NAME = ' '

NEW_WINDOW = 'X'

• BROWSER_TYPE =

• CONTEXTSTRING =

EXCEPTIONS

FRONTEND_NOT_SUPPORTED = 1

FRONTEND_ERROR = 2

PROG_NOT_FOUND = 3

NO_BATCH = 4

UNSPECIFIED_ERROR = 5

OTHERS = 6

.

IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.

MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO

WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.

ENDIF.

Hi,

You will have to construct your email as a HTML mail including the tags. For the link you can use the tag:

<a href="www.google.com">click here</a>

Then in the interface of the function module SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1 you will have to set the import parameter PACKING_LIST-DOC_TYPE to 'HTM'.

Hope this helps,

Sudhi
