Send Purchase Order by mail to vendor in SAP

This blog explains the steps involved in SAP ECC to send purchase order by email to a vendor as an attachment. Sending Purchase order by email to a vendor is called as "External Send" in SAP. Follow this Steps


1. mail address of the vendor should be maintained in the vendor master data while creating the vendor using Transaction code XK01, if vendor is already created maintain the email address using Transaction code XK02.

2. Maintain email address in your "own data", to ensure that the process has a sent from your email address (system>User Profile>Own Data).
Note: It is not possible to change the vendor email address permanently with standard purchase order transaction code ME21N or ME22N, we can maintain temporary only, for permanent change use transaction codes XK02 or MK02.

3. For output type default values, a communication strategy has to be maintained in the customization.
Menu path for communication strategy: (SPRO >IMG >SAP Web Application Server > Basic Services >Message Control > Define Communication Strategy). Here default value is communication structure is CS01 and communication type is INT (email), after configuration of relevant communication structure and communication type, we can find these entries in table TCSTRP.

4. Use standard SAP Program "SAPFM06P" FORM routine "ENTRY_NEU" and form "MEDRUCK" as processing routines for output type (ex NEU-Purchase order). For additional functionalities copy this program and smart form in to Z Program and Z form (Ex: Z_PO_PRINT and Z_PURCHASE_ORDER) and maintain these against output type (Ex: ZNEU-PO Email) by using transaction code NACE, For subject of the email goto Mail Title and Texts. In title give PO No. &EKKO-EBELN&

5. In order trigger the output type automatically in PO maintain the condition record using transaction code MN04 for output type, use medium as '5' (External send).

6. Use SCOT transaction code to trigger the output manually In SCOT transaction under INT double click on node SMTP and maintain SMTP connection.

  Mail Host: (IP address of the mail server)
  Mail Port :25
  Code Page: 4110 unicode UTF-8.(Example)
  Click on SET tab against the Internet check box and maintain
  SAPscript/Smart Forms: PDF or TXT as per requirement.

7. Status of the External send document can be seen in transaction code SOST.

  1. Hotmail Most of us had heard the name of Hotmail. First free email service in the early years of the 2000s. I am sure many of you had an account there too. Today we will talk about Hotmail and also will discuss how we can use the new version of this email service in 2020.
