Creating e-mails with HTML

[Ward, James E]

I'm missing something.  When I go into SCOT and look at the output
formats for SMTP, I have Sapscript/Smartforms to PDF,ABAP List to
HTM,Business Object Link to HTM, and RAW Text to TXT.  Since Raw Text to
HTM isn't an option in the dropdown, how do I get HTML formatted mail to
send as HTM rather than as plain text (or is that the create your own
method option)?

Abby, 

Perfectly possible to send an HTML mail - you just need to configure
transaction SCOT to convert the ordinary mail to HTML format on the way
out. 

Including hyperlinks is easy enough - just put the URL in the text and
the mail client will convert to a hyperlink.   Graphics?  A little more
interesting.  

 

Hmmm...

If your HTML page is complicated you might want to swap to your own
method that generates the HTML code for the mail and pass that into the 

mail content via a multiline container element.  

 

Last resort is to create your own method to generate the mail setting
the mail type to HTM. 

 

But definitely is possible.  Some prototyping would be a good idea...

	Hi workflow experts - 

	I have a question for you - I have a requirement to send an
email via workflow.  This email is actually going to go out to the
customer, and so the business would like this email to use HTML - with
graphics and hyperlinks and so forth.  Does anyone know if this is
POSSIBLE with the restrictions of sending email from workflow?  This is
a 4.7 Enterprise box.

	Thanks so much for your help! 
	Abby  :)
