Hi,

We have background job , which creates a spool output in Internet Explorer format. Customer needs this in Excel format.

Wondering, if any authorizations to be changed for file type? or this is a set in program level?

Thanks,

Sam

Can you clarify ? Are you emailing the output ? SAP will create an attachment file in html format when you email from your job.

Otherwise I would think the output should be txt format.

Yes....Currently the customer email address is added to "Spool list Recipient" in SM37. This way, spool output is sent to customer through email. Currently it is in HTML format.

Thanks,

OK that's what I thought. SAP defaults the html format, but you don't need to change it since you can convert the html format to excel by right clicking on the file.
