Sending email attachments with Class CL_DOCUMENT_B...

SimoneMilesi · ‎2009 Sep 17

Hi all!

I'm finding a problem while i try to send a document using the class CL_DOCUMENT_BCS.

I'm working in ECC 6.0.

The problem i got is the... space limit!

I can send an attachment (as .csv file) but i see i got 255 chars limit.

There is any way to send longer attachments (FM, class..)

PLEASE PAY ATTENTION

The FM SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1 is NOT a solution! I replaced it with class CL_DOCUMENT_BCS when upgraded from 4.7 to 6.0 for avoid some conversion issue.

Hi Simone,

Refer to the example program BCS_TEST05. Basically what you need to do is to convert the csv file to a hexadecimal table ( use this FM to do that SCMS_TEXT_TO_BINARY) and then use the method add_attachment of the class which accepts a binary table

Hope this helps.

There are many other example programs starting with BCS which you can have a look at.

Hi,

Try 'CSV' as the document type


CALL METHOD document->add_attachment
  EXPORTING
    i_attachment_type    = 'RAW'   === > Change this to 'CSV'
    i_attachment_subject = 'File attch'
    i_attachment_size    = '21'
    I_ATT_CONTENT_HEX    = binar.

BR,

Advait
