Sending report by E-Mail

[Former Member]

Hi,

I need to send the report to the user by mail either in WAD (Web APplication Designer) or in Portal 5.0 . I could able to download the report into excel by using export command in WAD (Web APplication Designer). But, I don't have any clue where to start for sending the same report to the user by e-mail.

I am sure some one might have had the same requirement and I appreciate if you can share the ideas or can pass on the already implemented code.

I read documentation about "sending e-mails from BSP application" on service.sap.com and I even went through the same topic in this forum but I don't have luck so far.

This is the information I've got so far.

Find the example BSP application, BSPTUTORIALMAIL and the application class, CL_BSP_TUT_MAIL, which the tutorial is based on, in the SAP system in package SBSP_DOCU.

SAP Notes : 455140, 546147

appreciate your help.

thanks in advance

If these reports are generated in SAP then why not send direct from there - there are verious office FMs for doing that.

Or are you displaying a list of reports and then asking which to send? Where is the report output stored?

Hi,

User looks at the reports from the Portal and they might decide to send the report by E-mail after making some navigation steps in a query / report. So, I need to provide a link for them in the WAD / portal so that when they click that link, the report be E-mailed to them. So, I need to implement E-mailing the reports only in WAD or Portal.

just to give an idea..this is how I downloaded reports into csv format in WAD / Portal.

Appreciate if you have any other ideas.

thanks
