SAP Note 1296758 - Sending purchase order attachments via mail

Component : Message determination and printing - Shopping Cart

Summary :
This SAP Note addresses the external transmission of SRM (Supplier Relationship Management) attachments in ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) purchase orders. It elaborates the handling of attachments added to shopping cart items in SRM, which can be classified as "internal" or "external". For ERP purchase orders, the Document Management System stores documents at item level, but lacks automatic external transfer functionality. The solution involves classifying documents as "external" during message determination, enabling their transfer as email attachments alongside the purchase order PDF. Implementation requires modifying SAP system standards through BAdI (Business Add-In) and includes chargeable consulting services. Custom objects in customer namespaces are used for this adjustment.

Key words :
