want to trace the program sending mail with a PDF file.

I want to trace the program sending mail with a PDF file.

I set a break point in the program which is the driving program for a costmizing output type.

I created a output entry with a medium of simple mail and filled other infomation like mail address ....

after click on 'SAVE' , the mail was sent out, but it didn't go into the break point i set .

anybody tell me how to get the break point ? will be better let me know WHY & How ?

You want to debug something which is processed in update task.

So what you have to do is type "/h" (without the " in the box where you type the transactioncodes) to activate debugging just before you hit the SAVE button.

When you come into the debugger (classic is the one i use) you select "Settings" then "Update debugging". This activates update debugging.

the program containing your breakpoint is processed in update task, so update debugging has to be switched on to get there. Otherwise, it will not stop there, as you already have experienced.

Let me know if it works now.
