Hi Please with the help of ABAPer activate the read receipt for the mail, so that user can know whether it has actually read by vendor.
For your confirmation, you can refer to SOST transaction and against each output stauts will be shown.

External send PO email to vendor

Hi experts,
I have one requirement to add additional text in the email content for external send email to vendor, can anyone show me how to do this?
Also, is there anyway to get acknowledgement from vendor when they receive the auto PO email?
Thanks and regards,
JT

HI,
In order to send PO, your Basis team must configure the system first so that external email can be sending out from SAP. If it is not configured, no settings you do on MM will work.
1. You must maintain email address in vendor master data.
2. The same applies to your user master data. For the output type for default values, a communication strategy needs to be maintained in the Customizing that supports the e-mail. You can find the definition of the communication strategy in the Customizing via the following path:
(SPRO -> IMG -> SAP Web Application Server -> Basic Services -> Message Control -> Define Communication Strategy).
As a default, communication strategy CS01 is delivered. This already contains the necessary entry for the external communication. Bear in mind that without a suitable communication strategy it is not possible to communicate with a partner via Medium 5 (external sending).
3. Use the standard SAP environment (program 'SAPFM06P', FORM routine 'ENTRY_NEU' and form 'MEDRUCK') as the processing routines.
4. In the condition records for the output type (for example, Transaction MN04), use medium '5' (External send).
5. You can use Transaction SCOT to trigger the output manually. The prerequisite for a correct sending is that the node is set correctly. This is not described here, but it must have already been carried out.
6. To be able to display, for example, the e-mail in Outlook, enter PDF as the format in the node.

New business scenario for reapir from customer and sending them to vendor.

Hello team,
We have a scenario where we need to configure in the system -
We recieve a material from my customer for repair.We need to send this to my vendor who will repair it and send them back to Us. On this we recieve revenue from the customer and pay i pay half amount my vendor for the service.
We are following above scenario in SAP as
In the first step
The production team create a serviece order in IW31 for the material that need to send to the vendor, which was recieved from the customer. When service order is created in the back end a Purchase requisition is created.
In next step we created a PO w.r.f to the above PR and we need to send this to vendor on subcontracting so that we can track the material from him after the repair.
The problem is --- When PR is created automatically during serviece order creation (iw31) we are unable to create Po with Item category L (subcontracting) because PR is not created with L.We are even unable to change L in PR since it is created automatically at the background.We ried to change the field at document type in spro. But no luck.
Pls let us know is there any other business process where we can handle this situation or any technical help to change the PR.
Regards,
L.chaitanya.

User cannot receive External Send Output Message manually - ME22N

Hi Guru's
I have the following issue, once a User has saved the PO he wants to receive this PO to his email. He goes to "Messages" and selects Medium 5 "External Send" and in Partner he types his User ID in order to receive it.
He is not receiving any emails and the status in Further Data is "2 incorrectly processed". When he types another User ID, this User does receive the email. Is there anything else I need to configure to this User ID so he can received this Output Messages? He is the only User that cannot receive these Output Messages.
Regards

Problem Solved!!
I enter to table USR21 (Assign user name address key) and realized User ID did not exist. So I enter to table ADR6 (E-Mail Addresses) and noticed it was a totally different User. I enter to table LFA1 (Vendor Master) and there was information about this User.
This left me to one conclusion...This had nothing to do with the User ID
The Client in the past created Vendors (MK01) has "Buyers". So when the Buyer wanted to send any PO to his email he just went to "Messages" and selected Output Type "NEU" / Medium 5 "External send" / Partner "Vendor#" = Buyer.
I enter to MK02 and typed the Vendor# they gave him, in "General Data" check only "Address" and press ENTER, updated the email in the field and selected INT E-mail in "Standard Comm Mtd" and problem solved.
Thank you all for your help
Best Regards!!

Purchase order document external send status

From other posted messages that table NAST is not related to table SOST.
We send PO to vendors via Esker Fax, therefore, the external sent status can be viewed via transaction code SOST. Data of external sent is maintained in table SOST. But the document number is not linked with SOST table. Is there any other way I can get the external sent status for each external sent document?
Thanks,

The vendor e-mail address is picked up from the master data and the purchaser's e-mail would be picked up from their user account. The problem is that I don't know at what stage in the program SAPFM06P, used for sending the purchase order, I could set up the distribution list.
If I set the vendor address to name.address@somewhere; name2.address@somewhere else this works and both name and name2 receive the e-mail. But it would mean the purchasers ammending the vendor e-mail address each time, which just isn't practical.
I probably should have said that I'm using SAP version 46c and the e-mail is sent using standard SAP settings for 5-External send using program SAPFM06P and form MEDRUCK.
Thanks for the advice

Purchase order through External Send to include a CC address

Does anyone have any idea how to get the e-mail of a purchase order sent through External Send to include a CC address in the e-mail?
I have searched the forum and found a few questions regarding sending a purchase order to more than 1 e-mail address using external send, but not solutions.
We have got this working to send to the vendor, but the purchasing manager won't use it until we are able to cc the purchaser into the mail. This is to allow the purchaser to keep track on what has been sent. It seems like an obvious thing to want to do. Is it possible in standard SAP? If not, where should I start to get this to work? Is there a customer exit or another area of code somewhere that I can change to trigger a second e-mail. Alternatively can I run this through workflow somehow?
Any suggestions will be greatfully received and rewarded.
Thank you
Karen

How to send mail to vendor mail id from Tcode MIGO when GR is created

Hi Experts,
My requirement is to send one mail to vendor when GR is created in Tcode MIGO.
I tried to setup configuration in tcode NACE, creating new message type MAL1. but i am not able to locate Message tab in tcode MIGO, also, When i goto transaction MB02 i can give message type MAL1 in output types then mail is going to scot, but my main problem is as:
Output type MAL1 is not automacially trigerred from transaction MIGO (I need to go to MB02 and add output type in Messages)
Please help me to configure this. Again, i did configuration only in NACE and not any other tcode. So please tell me whether i need to configure in other tcodes specifcally WE20 (if yes, please give me message type and process code for GR) .
Many thanks, please help me. points assured!
Thanking you,
Jogdand M B

Hi,
Via t-code NACE select inventory management, then you can use output type WE01 or MLGR base on transmission medium -- 5 External send. After that you need to maintain the condition record accordingly, then that will be ok! After GR with MIGO, system will generate a email to vendor's mailbox in the vendor master data!
Good luck

Send purchase order via email (external send) with special Czech characters

Hi all,
I am sending a purchase order created with ME21N via email to the vendor using "external send".
The mail is delivered without any problems, PO is attached to the mail as PDF file.
Problem is that special Czech characters as "ž" or "u0161" are not displayed, a "#" (hash) appears instead.
This problem occurs when language for PO output = EN.
Tests with language = CS worked out fine, but the whole form incl. all texts are in Czech as well; so no valid solution since it needs to be in English.
We checked SAPCONNECT configuration and raised note 665947; this is working properly.
When displaying the PO (ME23N) special characters are shown correctly as well.
Could you please let me know how to proceed with that issue?!
Thanks.
Florian

Hi!
No, it's not a Unicode system.
It is maintained as:
Tar. Lang. Lang. Output Format Dev. type
Format
PDF EN English PDF1
Using this option, character "ž" was not displayed correctly, but "Ú" was ok.
All other Czech special characters are not tested so far.
Thanks,
Florian

PO Output type with Option 5 External Send (&EKKO-EBELN&)

Dear Friends,
We have come across and interesting issue.
We want PO output to be send to vendor via email and the email subject should be "New Purchase Order <po document no>". To achieve this requirement we have set the Output type NEU --> Mail title and Text as NEW PURCHASE ORDER &EKKO-EBELN&.
When PO is created and before saving the PO user select the option 5 External Send in Message and further go to the communication tab. he can see the 'NEW PURCHASE ORDER &EKKO-EBELN&.' in Cover Page Text.
But the movement user saves the PO, Message --> communication is replaced with 'NEW PURCHASE ORDER".
And finally when the mail is sent with no PO document number and subject as "NEW PURCHASE ORDER".
Has any one has come across this issue before?
Or is there any OSS note for this?
Please Help!!
Sandeep

dear sandeep
you can follow below mention steps or reffer OSS
1. You must maintain an e-mail address in the address in the vendor master.
2. The same applies to your own user master. You also have to specify an e-mail address there in order to identify the sender.
Note that it is not possible to change the e-mail address of the vendor via the SAP purchase order transaction (ME21N, ME22N, and so on). The system only uses the e-mail address of the vendor that is maintained in the vendor master!
3. For the output type for default values, a communication strategy needs to be maintained in the Customizing that supports the e-mail. You can find the definition of the communication strategy in the Customizing via the following path: (SPRO -> IMG -> SAP Web Application Server -> Basic Services -> Message Control -> Define Communication Strategy). As a default, communication strategy CS01 is delivered. This already contains the necessary entry for the external communication.

PO -external send or email

I m doing PO e-mail or external send to vendor settings .
I have maintained condition records and all SPRO required settings.
Still NEU output is not triggering while creating PO.
Is there something to do in user profile to get this done?
User profile/ Parameters any valu I need to add?
pls advise
Thx

Follow this and check all youe config.
PO Email:
Basically there are two mail types: Internet mail (external mail) and SAPOffice mail.
Mail is sent via the output determination in both cases.
If you use the external mail, the message for the purchasing document is converted into a corresponding text file which is sent to the vendor via the Internet.
SAPOffice mail is sent only within the R/3 System and has mainly the function of providing information.
In particular, it is not possible to attach a message (form) for a purchasing document to a SAPOffice mail.
When using external mail, the following basic settings are required:
1. You must maintain an e-mail address in the address in the vendor master.
2. The same applies to your own user master. You also have to specify an e-mail address there in order to identify the sender.
o Note that it is not possible to change the e-mail address of the vendor
o You can use a temporary email address in Transaction ME21N.
3. For the output type for default values, a communication strategy needs to be maintained in the Customizing that supports the e-mail.
You can find the definition of the communication strategy in the Customizing via the following path: (SPRO -> IMG -> SAP Web Application Server -> Basic Services -> Message Control -> Define
Communication Strategy). As a default, communication strategy CS01 is delivered. This already contains the necessary entry for the external communication. Bear in mind that without a suitable communication strategy it is not possible to communicate with a partner via Medium 5 (external sending).
4. Use the standard SAP environment (program 'SAPFM06P', FORM routine 'ENTRY_NEU' and form 'MEDRUCK') as the processing routines.
5. In the condition records for the output type (for example,Transaction MN04), use medium '5' (External send).
6. You can use Transaction SCOT to trigger the output manually. The prerequisite for a correct sending is that the node is set correctly. This is not described here, but it must have already been
carried out.
7. To be able to display, for example, the e-mail in Outlook, enter PDF as the format in the node.
To use the SAPOffice mail, the following basic settings are required:
1. For the output type for default values, a communication strategy needs to be maintained in the Customizing that supports the e-mail.
You can branch to the maintenance of the communication strategy via the input help.
2. Use the SAP standard environment (program "RSNASTSO" and FORM routine "SAPOFFICE_AUFRUF") as the processing routines.
3. In the condition records for the output type (for example,Transaction MN04), use medium '7' (SAPOffice) and also partner role 'MP' (mail partner).
Additional settings:
Problem:
How can you both change the mail title and text for the sending of a mail message and maintain a replacement parameter, for example a document number.
Solution:
1. The replacement routine is maintained in the Customizing for the output type in the detail screen on the 'General data' tab under 'Replacement of text symbols' (for Release < 4.6B, this can be found on the 'Mail' tab page).
Program: SAPMM06E
FORM routine: TEXT_SYMBOL_REPLACE
2. Maintain mail title and text.
o If you want to send a purchase order within an R/3 system using the SAP office, you can maintain both the mail title ('Re:') and also a mail text in the Customizing for the output type To do this, select the directory mail title and text for the corresponding message type.
o If you want to send a purchase order as (external) mail, for example, to a vendor, you have to maintain the mail title in the condition record for the output type (for example in Transaction MN05) on the 'Communication method' tab page. Enter the mail title in the 'Text for cover page' field. You cannot maintain an additional mail text.
o Note that the values from the mail title are used to create the description for the attachment.
3. The replacement parameters must be enclosed by &. Example: You want to enter the title 'PO number '. For this you have to enter the following in the Document Title field (Message Customizing ->
sub-option: Mail title and texts) 'PO number &EKKO-EBELN&'
