Hi ,

I have to recieve the automatic email of contract to buyer , I have created a

condition table with

1)Doctype/Buyer code(Purch group)

2)Assigned table to acess seq

3) Assigned acess sequence to message type

4) Maintained message determination .

I had used transaction NACE and selected application type EV and maintained condition records for Message type with medium 5 and partner as OA .

Now when I create contract , I dont see the message type automatic in the contract and when entered manually , it gives me error saying partner not maintained .

Can anyone suggest me .

Thanks ,

First of all check your vendor has the OA partner function and then go to SPRO-MM-Purchiasng-Messages- output control- prtner role per message type- define partner role for outline agreement

here you have to define for OA partner function then only it will allow you.

. You must maintain an e-mail address in the address in the vendor master.

2. The same applies to your own user master. You also have to specify an e-mail address there in order to identify the sender.

Note that it is not possible to change the e-mail address of the vendor via the SAP purchase order transaction (ME21N, ME22N, and so on). The system only uses the e-mail address of the vendor that is maintained in the vendor master!

3. For the output type for default values, a communication strategy needs to be maintained in the Customizing that supports the e-mail. You can find the definition of the communication strategy in the Customizing via the following path: (SPRO -> IMG -> SAP Web Application Server -> Basic Services -> Message Control -> Define Communication Strategy). As a default, communication strategy CS01 is delivered. This already contains the necessary entry for the external communication. Bear in mind that without a suitable communication strategy it is not possible to communicate with a partner via Medium 5 (external sending).

4. Use the standard SAP environment (program 'SAPFM06P', FORM routine 'ENTRY_NEU' and form 'MEDRUCK') as the processing routines.

5. In the condition records for the output type (for example, Transaction MN04), use medium '5' (External send).

6. You can use Transaction SCOT to trigger the output manually. The prerequisite for a correct sending is that the node is set correctly. This is not described here, but it must have already been carried out.

7. To be able to display, for example, the e-mail in Outlook, enter PDF as the format in the node.

You mentioned in your message that you want to send the mail message to Buyer. If that is the case, then your partner type in condition record should be BU (Buyer) and not 'OA'. Please correct the condition record and check.
