Send Smart Forms within emails (html) Problems with format

[former_member348166]

Dear all,

the ABAP report SF_XSF_DEMO1 is a demo report which converts a certain smart form into HTML and then sends it as an email in html format.

Sending the email is possible without any problems but I am wondering about the email format.

<a href="http://www.imgbox.de/show/img/e4QvgzsS4L.jpg" title="Bilder hochladen">This screenshot shows how the email looks like.</a>

I am not happy with the email layout as the Smart Form "SF_XSF_DEMO1" is designed in a different way.

What do I have to adapt within the report in order to send an email that really looks like the Smart Form? Or is it a customizing issue?

(I would like to avoid having to send the Smart Form as PDF attachment...)

Thanks for you help!

Hi Kristian,

When ever you send a smartform output as an HTML email, the system generates automatic style sheets which are not supported in many email clients such as Outlook 2007, hence you will face a formatting issue. We faced the same issue and had do it it like this:

Build a BSP page similar to the output which you want to send as an email. Now you can use the BSP URL to send the html email using cl_bcs class.

I have documented this in my article below-

Hope it helps.

Hello,

thanks, Ravikiran, for your proposal.

Does anyone have another proposal on how to send well formatted HTML email which can be adapted easily?
