Error when trying to mail PO to a vendor

Former Member

Hi,

we're on ECC 5.0. SAPKB64015.

I'm testing the email of a PO to a vendor. I've set up the condition record, and the vendor has an email address. I'm using output type NEU. This is set up with the standard smartform /SMB40/MMPO_L program /SMB40/FM06P form routine ENTRY_NEU. When I create a PO - I go into messages and get the error 'Archiving format not equal to PDF.' - message number SSFCOMPOSER 017.

Any ideas why this isn't working?

Thanks

Richard

Dear All,

For the Output Type NEU, in NACE, please check the Document Type (Archiving Document Type) under Storage System settings. In the Archiving Document Type configuration (OAC2), verify if the Document class used is PDF. If not, change the Document class to 'PDF'.

This should resolve the problem.

Hi,

1.Go to the output type NEU which is used to send email. Go to the change mode-->Storage tab and make it like this. Storage mode=Print and archive

Document type=xxxxxx note down this

2. Now go to transaction code OAC2, Position your document type from step 1 and assign document class as PDF

3. Go to OAC3 and assign object type bus2012 to ur document type. Give the content repository which u r using save it

4. Maintain the work flow in OAD5 with ur doc type maintained in step 1. Maintain the presetting save it.

5. now go to me22n and try to send your message it will work.

Cheers

Hi,

I couldn't get where you face problem,

1. Have you created an ABAP Program?

2. Are you trying to send Smartform as pdf.

3. Can you paste the code snippet (the function module that you have used)?

Feel free to revert Back.
