Hi,

I have a requirement, in which I need to send the hyperlink in a Email for displaying the CRM quotation document.

I have pasted the link like this <A href="googlehttp://www.google.com">google</A> in Send Mail activity.

My requirement is only google should appear in the Email and when the user clicks on that it should open the link www.google.com.

I am able to see google as per my requirement and able to open the link from SOST but in Email it appears as <A href="googlehttp://www.google.com">google</A>.

Please suggest how can I format this URL.

I don't want to write the logic using SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1 FM, I want to use only standard Send Mail acitvity.

Regards,

Rajesh Akarte

Hello !

       Please try the following format :

             <a href="www.google.com">Google</a>

       It should work now. The complete mail in one line could be due to change in the RAW text output format for SAP documents. Change the RAW text to TXT.

Regards,

S.Suresh.

Hi,

I have finish this requirement and have followed below process to to achieve this.

Mail IN HTML with Hyperlink

1. Mail sent by send mail activity is in text format.

  SCOT setting should be maintained for converting the RAW text to HTM format.

Procedure to maintain the above setting is as below.

i.              Go the transaction SCOT and click on SMTP.

ii.             Click on SET button opposite to Internet.

iii.            Select drop down entry as HTM for RAW text.

iv.            If HTM option is not available in the drop down list then, maintain the entry for this in the table SXCONVERT2.

v.             Save and come out of the transaction.

2. Above setting in SCOT will convert the text mail into HTML, but it will come in a single line.

To do the alignment we write the complete mail in send mail activity in HTML format.

Open the sap script editor for writing the mail .

i.e.

*   <html>

*   <body>

*   Hi,<(><<)>br>

*   <(><<)>br>

*   Please Approve the Quotation &QUOTATION.OBJECT_ID& .<(><<)>br>

*                                                                          

*   &HYPERLINK1&

=   &HYPERLINK2&

=   &HYPERLINK3&

=   &HYPERLINK4&<(><<)>br>

*   <(><<)>br>

*   Regards<(><<)>br>

*   System Admin<(><<)>br>

*   <(><<)>br>

*   </body>

*   </html>

&HYPERLINK1& 2,3 and 4 are variables which contains the weblink for displaying the quotation.

Hyperlink I had to display contained more that 255 chars so I divided the address into 4 variables each variable has the length 72.

For displaying the hyperlink in a mail as only one text use the format as below

<a href="www.google.com">Google</a>

This way we can send the hyperlink through send mail activity.

I hope it will solve many peoples problem.

Regards,

Rajesh Akarte

Hi Rajesh,

More people will see this if you write a blog post so I would encourage you to do that.  Then you can explain more clearly why your site wanted this and what challenges you faced in getting this working.

Hi Rajesh,

I followed your steps but the HTML tags still got displayed.

And my link that are less than 100 characters still gets truncated.

What might went wrong?
