Hi Anu,

You can create a simple Workflow on the Event Release for BUS2012 .

As soon as PO release you can have a activity that can send the Email to the vendor.

What has "taking long time to release a PO" to do with sending emails?

The time between creating and releasing a PO is based on user activity. If the approver is on vacation or ill then the PO is just not released in the expected time, that's it. But the message is immediately ready to be issued once the approver clicked the button and approved the PO. This is controlled by a requirement in your message customizing.

The reason why the email is not sent has to be somewhere else, certainly not depending on the time needed by the approver (if the requirement is still SAP standard)

You have to check your PO message screen if there is something yellow or red. You need to provide details on your communication strategy. Details from your PO whether it is really released. Details from the NAST record to know when it was created and sent along with other details such as the communication strategy which was used.

What program had you written? The normal driver program for printing or are you still referring to the program that you mentioned last year when you had the delays: https://answers.sap.com/questions/225737/po-was-approved-on-22052017-but-the-output-was-gen.html

Hi Jurgen,

Our requirement is send the email to vendor immediately after release.I wrote the code to send email inside the enhancmentspot of ME_PURCHASE_DOCUMENT_DATA_SAVE.Sometimes the email is sent to the vendor .Sometimes it is not sent to vendor.

This reply does not change my recommendations what you have to check

Why are you using an enhancement spot for this? This is handled by standard output functionality. You can set the output to be processed immediately.

We have specific requirement to send the email.We need to attach the terms and conditions file also to the email.

Email is not at all triggered,I cannot see in SOST.I suspect that email sending code is not at all exceuted .I am sending the email to vendor once the ekko-frgke is set to 1.I have kept the code to send the email after the BAPI_PO_RELEASE FM.Some POs are sent to the vendor and some are not.I have included the wait time also after BAPI_PO_RELEASE still some times email is not sent out.

did you set commit_work after you called the interface?

Hi Anu,

This is common issue because of Update task which take time .

I would advise you to create a very simple and basic workflow on event release of BUS 2012.
