Inbound Email to update SAP directly

Former Member

Hi

I'm busy writing an interface between a supplier and our SAP system. They send a file via e-mail and my interface/function imports/upload it into SAP. Can someone give me a step by step overview how to get a file from an inbound e-mail directly into SAP without manually dropping the file onto a server or pc folder.

Thanks

Gio

Hi,

Try using below function modules to read attachment data

SO_ATTACHMENT_READ_API1 - This fm will read the attachment and will give in the binary format.

SCMS_BINARY_TO_XSTRING - This fm will convert the binary format to xstring format.
