Using SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1 to send .xls attachment.

Hi,
I'm using the FM SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1 to send xls attachements.
All works fine, the only issue is that in the requirements the attachemnt should have fixed width columns.
I think that is not possible, everyone have done that?
If not there an alternative to the SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1?
Thanks for answers.

Hello,
You can have the fixed width of the colums in excel (No additional spaces in the column) is you use, the seperator between the fields.
For eg : If you are displaying 3 fields in the excel file, say MATNR, WERKS and QUANTITY.
Then you need to
Concatenate matnr
                      werks
                      quantity
into                ls_contents_bin-line
separated by lc_tab.
append ls_contents_bin to lt_contents_bin.
Here lc_tab is the tab seperator to be declared as follows : -
CONSTANTS : lc_tab         TYPE char01     VALUE cl_abap_char_utilities=>horizontal_tab.
The internal table lt_contents_bin is then passed to the table parameters contents_bin of the FM SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1.
Thanks.

Error while sending .XLS attachment

Hello,
I'm trynig to send an email with an .XML attachment. I use FM SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1 to do it. When I use this code:

            OTHERS                     = 8.
I get such an error: "Message cannot be processed as it cannot be converted".
When I change lt_objpack-doc_type to 'RAW' everything is OK, but I get attachment that has 'TXT' extension. If I change it manually to ".xls" Excel opens the file without any problems. I looked at <a href="http://www.sapdevelopment.co.uk/reporting/email/attach_xls.htm">http://www.sapdevelopment.co.uk/reporting/email/attach_xls.htm</a>
and it seems like there is nothing wrong with my program.
Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance,
Rafal

Can you send encrypted e-mails using SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1

We use SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1 to send e-mails to employees for various notifications. The e-mails go out through SCOT and are sent to our lotus notes.
We have a project being implemented, where the data we are sending in the note is kind of sensitive, so we'd like to see if we could send the e-mail as encrypted.   Does anyone know if there is some parameter we can set upon sending that would encrypt the text in the e-mail for sending?

Sending Carbon Copy using SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1

Hello,
I am using SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1' to send out email letting people know a direct deposit has been posted to their bank. My problem is that the Acct department wants a carbon copy sent to their email address for each email that is sent. Looking at this function, there is a line called
RECEIVERS = IT_RECLIST. When I take this thru debug, I see IT_RECLIST defined as TYPE TABLE OF SOMLRECI1. When I see the fields in IT_RECLIST, there is a field called copy, I assume I set this flag = 'X' to let the function know I want a carbon copy, correct? Also, I am confused as to where the carbon copy email address would go, because all I see is a field called RECEIVER that is holding the recipients email. Can you guys set me straight here?

u can't send a carbon copy...instead while sending the email, the same can be sent to 2 or more people at a time. Add the email address to the existing list and it will trigger same email to the department.

Extra emails using SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1.

Hello,
I have a requirement to send Purchase order email to a group of people besides the vendor.
I set the configuration to send the first email to the vendor and it is working fine.
I would like to use SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1 to send the SAME EMAIL to a group of persons but I am not sure where to read the information of the already generated email to populate the FM.
I saw some code in the forum to read the form and send it with SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1, but I could not find where you enter the Purchase Order number to generate the form in base of it.
Could anybody help me to understand how to populate SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1 with the information of the already generated email?
Thank you.
Monica.

Hi Chandra,
Thank you for your answer.
I did a little more research and realized that the email sent is not stored. This takes me to the option of emailing a SAPscript form with my PO.
I found some code in the forum to email a SAPscript but I do see where you enter the PO number or the reference to it.
Do you know?
Monica.

Word 2010 Send As Attachment does not send a HTML formatted mail

Hi!
I'm using Word 2010 to send a document by clicking File->Save & Send->Send Using E-mail->Send as Attachment.
In the Outlook 2010 new message window I click the ribbon tab Format Text and then I select HTML as the message format.
I continue to happily compose the HTML body and send it. On the recipient side (also Outlook 2010) the message body comes in Plain text format even tough the source email in the Sent folder is in HTML format.
Is this a bug or am I missing something obvious?

Hi,
It's not a bug as I can tell, the recipient may have configured Outlook to Read all standard mail in plain text, please let the recipient check the following setting:
Start Outlook 2010.
Click the File tab in the Ribbon, and then click Options on the menu.
Click Trust Center on the Options menu.
Click the Trust Center Settings tab.
Click E-mail Security.
Under Read as Plain Text, check if the check box of Read all standard mail in plain text has been selected, untick it and click
OK to save the setting.
Send the email again to test, hopefully the recipient can receive the email as the original format.
Good luck.

Melon Chen

Send excel attachment using FM SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1

Hi ABAPers,
I managed to send excel attachment using FM SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1.
Let say I send it to my own email account.
But, when try to open the excel document, from lotus notes, there is warning message produced by the microsoft excel saying:
"The file is not in a recognizable format.
and so on....."
Anyway, when I click button 'OK', excel sheet will be opened and no information lost.
How can we code the abap program so that the message will not come each time I open the attachment from my lotus notes?
Or this is just the tab delimited issue?
Thank you.
Regards,
Edward.

Hi Shan,
Thank you for replying.
I have the same as follows:
DESCRIBE TABLE lt_contents_hex LINES lv_lines.
lt_packing_list-transf_bin = 'X'.
lt_packing_list-head_start = 1.
lt_packing_list-head_num   = 1.
lt_packing_list-body_start = 1.
lt_packing_list-body_num   = lv_lines.
lt_packing_list-doc_type   = 'XLS'.
lt_packing_list-obj_name   = 'ATTACHMENT'.
lt_packing_list-obj_descr = 'Attachment'.
lt_packing_list-doc_size   = lv_lines * 255.
APPEND lt_packing_list.
I'm using lt_contents_hex instead of lt_contents_bin.
Still the problem is there.
Is there any other way to calculate the doc size correctly?

Problem with attachment using SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1

Hi,
I'm using function module SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1 to send emails from SAP (to Outlook - but the problem can already be observed when checking the email attachment in transaction SOST) with attachments.
My attachment is a tab delimited file (so that I can open with MS Excel) with a line size of approx. 1600 characters. I mean, concatenating all fields of the output table into a 1600 character field, separated by tabstops (cl_abap_char_utilities=>horizontal_tab)
I am using function module SCMS_STRING_TO_FTEXT to convert the internal table that I want to send to the line size as accepted by function module SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1, tables parameter contents_bin. Due to function module SCMS_STRING_TO_FTEXT this happens line by line, using a string variable. I make sure to remove any exess blanks that appear in the process due to not completey filled character fields. And for all rows bar the first the string is prefixed with (cl_abap_char_utilities=>cr_lf). I believe that's required so that SAP knows to put the lines back together. So far so good.
When checking the email's attachment via SOST (and the same happens in Outlook) there are extra blanks in certain fields. Like:
Annual Base
92,928. 00
or
Email
First L ast
In debugging it appears that these excess spaces (sometimes 1, sometimes several) appear where the 1600 character data line is split into the 255 character pieces in 'contents_bin'. But then it happens quite randomly and cannot be observed in all data rows.
Is there a better way of splitting my internal table into 255 character chunks so that what is one field will never get split up into two rows. For the above example, the two fields would show like this in contents_bin
.... 92,928.
00
and
First_L
ast
Or where else lies the problem?
Thanks in advance!
Philipp

Ron,
Thank you for the suggestion. Just tried but issue remains exactly the same. The function module you have suggested builds the table in the same way.
But, after a few more rounds of debugging and scratching my head it occured to me that my problem is self inflicted. I was using the condense statement in an attempt to get rid of the trailing blanks at the end of a row causing the last column to be filled with lots of spaces at the end. But it wasn't working anyway and I have since inserted a dummy column at the end to take all those trailing blanks. What this condense statement did though was creating trailing blanks in some of those rows with 255 characters fixed length and those trailing blanks then showed up as additional blanks in some columns in the attachment that the emailing function module created by putting those lines back to it's original length of close to 1600 characters.
Problem solved!
Regards,
Philipp

Hi Sai,
you can use XSLT or java mapping or adapter module to convert IDOC xml to XLS. Please refer the below blog
Convert incoming XML to Excel or Excel XML – Part 1 - XSLT Way
Convert incoming XML to Excel Sheet Part 2 – Adapter Module way
Convert incoming XML to Excel Sheet
then after converting to Excel, you can use the payloadswap bean in mail adapter
