Use of SO_OBJECT_SEND directly to e-mail

0 Kudos

Hi,

The FM SO_OBJECT_SEND works fine if i send it to a sap-user. With forwarding (SO12/SO36) I can redirect the sapmail to Outlook. All works well.

My requirement is that i can send an email from SAP (46c) directly to an external emailadres. I need to fill the receiver list differently, but how? Whatever I try, I get the raise 'OBJECT_NOT_SENT'.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Nice code you made and it probably works like a charm in your system.

I tried it but in debugging it also gives me subrc = 2 (OBJECT_NOT_SENT) after the FM SO_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1.

Hi,

to send a mail from SAP to external mail we need to use the FM 'SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1'. please check the link for more information and its usage.
