print to mail (access method M): several recipients

[Former Member]

We are using the "print to mail" (sending a PDF file to an Internet-style e-mail address).

(As a matter oif fact, we have a printer called MPDF.)

We have received the following question: is it possible, within such a print request, to specify several recipients?

I have tried a comma-separated list - that does not work.

I have tried a SAPoffice distribution list - that does not work either.

Hi,

be more specific, since there are different methods for sending emails from SAP. I use function SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1 and can add any number of recipients

• Receiver list:

recvlist-receiver = email1.

recvlist-EXPRESS = 'X'.

recvlist-rec_type = 'B'. " U = Internet / B = SAP User

APPEND recvlist.

recvlist-receiver = email2.

recvlist-EXPRESS = 'X'.

recvlist-rec_type = 'B'. " U = Internet / B = SAP User

APPEND recvlist.

Thank you for your reply.

Your approach corresponds to the SAPoffice distribution-list.

Our context is the classic "print" dialog, with a printer like our MPDF printer.

It has room for one recipient. If that recipient is not an Internet-style address (but a SAPoffice DL, for example), processing fails downstram in SAPconnect.

In order to get past the limitation of a single recipient, we got our e-mail admin to create e-mail distribution groups, such as marketing @ yourcompany.com or fridaydoughnutgroup @ yourcompany.com.

So the solution we took was not in SAP but on our e-mail server.

Thank you for your reply.

This is more-or-less what I expected: that this is best handled outside of SAP, in the mail system.
