Javascript to extract data to be sent to an email

Does anyone know how to extract the data from a form to be sent to an email address using JavaScript?
The reason for doing this is because Acrobat does not handle using a web mail client to send data very well (the user would have to save the form, and attach it to their email). I'm looking for more of a streamline solution. If your email client is Outlook, Outlook Express, or some other PC based email client, then Acrobat handles that situation perfectly.
Thank you in advance for any help.

Do you mean send an e-mail without interacting with any local e-mail client, as in having its own SMTP server built-in? No, Acrobat does not do that. You need a local e-mail client in order to use the e-mail functionality. If you're concerned about the Gmail Generation, I suggest you use a SOAP webservice instead of e-mail.

  • Can any one tell how to modify the PO that is being sent as an email?

    Hi,
           Can anyone let me know that how to modify the PO with some more additonal data while being sent as an email.
    My actual requirement is that PO is already being sent as an email when the PO is created.But now they want some more additional data as an attachement along with PO to be sent as email.ie both PO and another scriptform(which contains some other additonal data other than from PO) have to be sent as an email to the vendor when the PO is created.
    I would like to know the name of the userexit,where I can modify the existing PO or else please let me know how to resolve this issue.
    First of all I would like to know the name of the userexit where this PO is being sent as an email.
    It doesn't matter whatever the solution might be.But we need to send another sapscript form or additional data as an attachement along with PO through email to the vendor.I dont know whether it should be another script or it is also ok to add that data to the existing PO and then only the PO can be sent.
    Thanks,
    Krishna

    Eswar,
                Thanks for your email.Can you please be bit clear.I am new to this area.
    Any flexible solution is ok for me.Is it in the Userexit,that I need to include the code or what are outtypes as you said.
    Please give me clear solution.
    Thanks,

  • Extracting data from Excel To Illustrator javascript or vbscript

    Hi all-
    I was wondering if there was a way to extract data from Excel to be used in Illustrator. I know there is an option of variables and xml, and I don't want that. I've seen and tried out how to read illustrator and write to excel, and I get that.  What I would like to do is pretty much the opposite:
    1.Pre-fill in an Excel file(.xls,.csv, doesn't matter) with data such as a filename in column 1 and (Replacement Text) in column 2 and close manually.
    2. Run script(VBSCRIPT,Javascript, doesn't matter)
    3.For each column in Excel file where cell in first column is not empty, open Illustrator Template with placeholder of "DWG" textframe and replace the frame titled "DWG" with Replacement text from Excel in Column2.
    4, Save each to a PDF file and name file with text from Excel Column1(Filename)
    In a nutshell, there will be a single illustrator template with a premade textFrame with a name of "DWG". Excel will contain two columns, one for the filename to be named and one for the relative text to replace with the placeholder in AI. I hoped I explained this well enough without causing too much confusion. Thanks in advance.
    Filename
    Replacement Text
    test1.pdf
    DWG01
    test2.pdf
    DWG02
    test3.pdf
    DWG03
    test4.pdf
    DWG04

    As text… \n is new line character and \r is return character. I can't remember which excel uses but they both equate to a line/paragraph… I very quickly threw together an example for you…
    #target Illustrator
    textToPDF();
    function textToPDF() {
              if ( app.documents.length == 0 ) { return; }
              var doc, csvFile, i, fileArray, opts;
              csvFile = File( '~/Desktop/ScriptTest/Test.csv' );
              if ( !csvFile.exists ) { return; }
              fileArray = readInCSV( csvFile );
              doc = app.activeDocument;
              opts = new PDFSaveOptions();
              opts.pDFPreset = '[Press Quality]';
              // Here we loop the main array
              for ( i = 0; i < fileArray.length; i++ ) {
                        // Here we get the second item of sub array i
                        doc.textFrames.getByName( 'DWG' ).contents = fileArray[i].[1];
                        // Here we get the first item of sub array i
                        doc.saveAs( File( fileArray[i].[0] ), opts );
    function readInCSV( fileObj ) {
              var fileArray, thisLine, csvArray;
              fileArray =[];
              fileObj.open( 'r' );
              while( !fileObj.eof ) {
                        thisLine = fileObj.readln();
                        csvArray = thisLine.split( ',' );
                        fileArray.push( csvArray );
              fileObj.close();
              return fileArray;
    I haven't tested it but it should be close…?

  • How to extract data from custom made Idoc that is not sent

    Hi experts,
    Could you please advise if there is a way how to extract data from custom made idoc (it collects a lot of data from different SAP tables)? Please note that this idoc is not sent as target system is not fully maintained.
    As by now, we would like to verify - what data is extracted now.
    Any help, would be appreciated!

    Hi,
    The fields that are given for each segment have their length given in EDSAPPL table. How you have to map is explained in below example.
    Suppose for segment1, EDSAPPL has 3 fields so below are entries
    SEGMENT          FIELDNAME           LENGTH
    SEGMENT1         FIELD1                   4
    SEGMENT1         FIELD2                   2
    SEGMENT1         FIELD3                   2
    Data in EDID4 would be as follows
    IDOC           SEGMENT                          APPLICATION DATA
    12345         SEGMENT1                        XYZ R Y
    When you are extracting data from these tables into your internal table, mapping has to be as follows:
    FIELD1 = APPLICATIONDATA+0(4)        to read first 4 characters of this field, because the first 4 characters in this field would belong to FIELD1
    Similarly,
    FIELD2 = APPLICATIONDATA+4(2).
    FIELD3 = APPLICATIONDATA+6(2).  
    FIELD1 would have XYZ, FIELD2 = R, FIELD3 = Y
    This would remain true in all cases. So all you need to do is identify which fields you want to extract, and simply code as above to extract the data from this table.
    Hope this was helpful in explaining how to derive the data.

    What is the best way to code it? It this a one shot (one time only task)? Then the best way is whatever way you are most comfortable with and which works.
    If on going then I doubt language choice matters but using a html parser rather than attempting to parse it yourself is going to help in any language.
    And are you starting with html files or starting with a http server? The two are very different.

  • How to learn to extract data and group it

    I recently met a guy who is looking to employ some folks. He got in touch with me in LinkedIn. I have done my research and I know he’s a real guy looking for people. I would like to get the job despite of the poor work conditions but I just feel the fear of failing or not being capable to do the job.
    I know I have to try and it will be great if some of you could give some advice on how to do the job or how can I self-learn this. I'm ready to read books and follow instructions. Last year, I did a DBA internship so, I’m familiar with PL/SQL but I didn’t cover information on how to programme or gather data.
    Here’s bit of the job information: "The work is to programme in PL/SQL to extract data and group it. You will learn how to make indexes and work with massive data. You will learn about programming performance in PL-SQL to extract data".
    I have translated the job info from Spanish to English so, I hope you can get what I’m actually looking for. For the ones that can speak Spanish, this is what the guy wrote: "El trabajo es programar en PL/SQL para extraer datos y centralizarlos. Va a aprender a realizar índices y trabajar con datos masivos. Va a aprender mucho sobre performance de programación en PL-SQL para extraer datos".

    Please anyone try to look at this issue and give me better soluttion ASAP.
    Thanks,
    Suresh.

    Hi ,
    The infopackage run for avery long time in yellow state with out changing to green, This might happen due to connection error(get in touch with your basis team) or due to over load on the system.
    eventhough the status of request is finished in source system, the job will be executing in the BI.
    1)Wait for sometime for the request to turn out green automatically or
    2)make the request to red and delte, repeat the infopackage step.
    3)IF you know about the no of records that need to be transferred and if the total records are transferred already, manually  change the request to green.
    Cheers,
    Srinath

  • Error when extracting data from ETL - Missing messages and missing InfoIdoc

    Hi All,
    We are using BW 3.0 and extracting data from other source systems through Informatica Powercenter (ETL). The system is working fine but when we try to extract data on 31st Dec , we get the following error. Only this load gives the error and all the other load to other data targets are going fine. All the data are one-to-one mapped from ETL to BW.
    Error messages from Monitor -Status tab:-

    Hi Rathy Moorthy,
    Thank you very much for your reply. The source system connections are OK and we are able to load data to other Data targets from ETL, we have issue only with this this particular load. The load extracts data and I have loaded the data from ETL to PSA and have checked the data content and it is correct. But when I update the same data to the target I get this error. I have also tried to update from PSA to target and also directly from ETL to target.
    Appretiate your suggestions.

    To do this, select the desired function module in the function library and choose Utilities ®Generate Web Service ® From the Function Module.
    2. Go through the following steps, shown in the wizard:
    a. Create a virtual interface.
    The virtual interface represents the interface between the Web Service and the outside.
    b. Choose the end point.
    The name of the function module that is to be offered as Web service is already entered here.
    c. Create the Web service definition.
    The Web service definition helps with assigning the Web service features, such as how security can be guaranteed in data transfer.
    d. Release the Web service.
    The wizard generates the object virtual interface and Web service definition in the object navigator.
    The function group that was generated when the XML DataSource was created is not transportable and is thus assigned to a local package. To prevent errors due to transports, make sure that the objects that were generated in the Web service creation wizard are assigned to a local non-transportable package.
    The Web service is released for the SOAP runtime.
    3. In the virtual interface for the import parameter DATASOURCE, define the name of the XML DataSource as the fixed value.
    A separate function group is generated for each XML DataSource. It makes sense to pre-assign the parameter DATASOURCE with the name of the XML DataSource in the virtual interface of the Web service for which the function group was generated.
    If you do not pre-assign the parameter, it will be necessary to transfer the data sent with the appropriate filled DataSource element, for example, by setting the value in the application that implements the Web service.
    a. In the object navigator, choose the name of the package in which the Web service was created and choose Enterprise Services ® Web Service Library ® Virtual Interfaces.
    b. Choose Change in the context menu for the virtual interface.
    c. For the virtual interface, remove the flags exposed and initial and enter the name of the XML DataSource in apostrophes, for example u20196ADATASOURCENAMEu2019.
    d. Activate the virtual interface.

  • Extract date from string in T-SQL

    Hi,
    I am having one field(AT_TEXT) in my database that has below kind of values. I want to extract date from this string but the issue is all rows has different format.
    1)One Month Lttr sent on 3/12/2009 due to
    2)One Month Letter sent on 1/15/2009 due to
    3)One Month letter sent on7/15/2011.The amount due             - This has no space between on and 7 and . after yr
    4)One Month letter sent on 7/16/12 due to        - This has 12 instead of 2012(2 positions after 2nd slash/)
    Can anyone please help me to write query to extract date from this string?
    Vicky

    Hi Jingyang
    Li,
    I checked your query and it looks good but I have one issue. So when we reverse it, it looks like below and it is talking that $57.80 as a 1st numeric value and try to convert it into date and giving me error.
    I realize from your query that you are trying to reverse the value and then try to find out 1st Numeric value from that string, but my whole string has another numeric value at the end, like 
    "One Month Letter on 1/15/2009 due to non-pmt of prems-amt to avoid DE is $57.80"
    So when we reverse it, it looks like below and it is taking that $57.80 as a 1st numeric value and try to convert it into date and giving me error.         
    "08.75$ si ED diova ot eud tma - smerp fo tmp-non ot eud 9002/51/1 no retteL htnoM enO"
    Also sometimes I have $ amount at the end and sometimes I don't have any $ amount at the end, like below,
    "One Month letter sent on 10/15/2012 due to non-payment of premiums. The amount due to avoid dise"
    Can you please modify your query which takes only date part not the $ amount and give me?
    Thank you so much for your help

  • Open Hub: How-to doc "How to Extract data with Open Hub to a Logical File"

    Hi all,
    We are using open hub to download transaction files from infocubes to application server, and would like to have filename which is dynamic based period and year, i.e. period and year of the transaction data to be downloaded. 
    I understand we could use logical file for this purpose.  However we are not sure how to have the period and year to be dynamically derived in filename.
    I have read in sdn a number of posted messages on a similar topic and many have suggested a 'How-to' paper titled "How to Extract data with Open Hub to a Logical Filename".  However i could not seem to be able to get document from the link given. 
    Just wonder if anyone has the correct or latest link to the document, or would appreciate if you could share the document with all in sdn if you have a copy.
    Many thanks and best regards,
    Victoria

    Hi,
    After creating open hub press F1 in Application server file name text box from the help window there u Click on Maintain 'Client independent file names and file paths'  then u will be taken to the Implementation guide screen > click on Cross client maintanance of file name > create a logical file path by clicking on new entiries > after creating logical file path now go to Logical file name definition there give your Logical file , name , physical file (ur file name followed by month or year what ever is applicable (press f1 for more info)) , data format (ASC) , application area (BW) and logical path (choose from F4 selection which u have created first), now goto Assignment of  physical path to logical path > give syntax group >physical path is the path u gave at logical file name definition.
    however we have created a logical path file name to identify the file by sys date but ur requirement seems to be of dynamic date of tranaction data...may u can achieve this by creating a variable. U can see the help from F1 that would be of much help to u. All the above steps i have explained will help u create a dynamic logical file.
    hope this helps u to some extent.
    Regards
