Do you send orders or quotations in PDF attachments by e-mail from SAP? Should users attach additional attachments to the mails? These are, for example, flyers, a technical drawing, a calculation or general terms and conditions. Such operations are often found in sales and purchasing. Let’s take a closer look at these processes. This is because users today often work awkwardly. Let’s consider the use case: Attach SAP document to purchase order. Before users send the SAP order by e-mail, they first save the business document on the desktop. Then add the document in Outlook as an attachment to a message. If you want to attach additional SAP documents to this Outlook e-mail, repeat this process. The bottom line is that such an approach costs users valuable time.
With the MailCenter add-on, you can easily add more attachments to your mails, in addition to the standard SAP PDF attachments. This works both manually and automatically. The source of the annexes does not matter. This is because the application supports all disks that can be reached by the client. As a result, the process is less prone to errors and saves time. In addition, the mails in the ERP system are fully visible at all times. This makes operations transparent, even for other users. Take a look at the testimonials of our customers. There you will learn more about the benefits of the MailCenter for users.

Which equipment can be used?
Files for the attachment can come from a variety of sources.
You attach documents from:
to the e-mail. In any case, existing attachments can be displayed on the screen beforehand. This requires a suitable viewer for the selected file format. Of course, the receiver also needs a suitable viewer. In addition, an automatic assignment to the document is carried out on request for DVS documents. Will the business document in the appendix be sent as a PDF? Or do you need a PDF and an XML? You also define this in Customizing. If necessary, change the text describing the attachment before sending. In any case, the system supports all common file formats for the attachments.
How can I attach a document?
Add attachments manually or automatically – How the attachments are added depends on the process.
On the one hand, the user maintains the attachments manually before sending them, as he is used to from Outlook. It simply attaches one or more files to the email in the attachment. And this for the respective process. Completely individual.
On the other hand, you automatically attach attachments according to an individual set of rules. Of course, you configure the proposal about Customizing. With user exits and ABAP extensions, you can adapt the finding of attachments to the process. Individually adapted to your wishes. Furthermore, a proposal supports the user in the selection of the required documents. We always pursue a goal. To make the process as automated as possible for the user. In short, no matter which way you choose. Adding attachments to mailing is no longer an issue in the future. You certainly have that under control with the program.
Can the use of documents in the attachment be restricted?
Yes, but only certain document types – You activate the use of DMS, Office, and ArchiveLink attachments in Customizing. Here a restriction at the organization and user level is possible. For DVS attachments, you limit the use per organizational unit, document type, and status. All documents with a valid status are available to the user in the MailCenter. By selecting the user, the user determines the documents relevant for shipping. Manually attached or automatically suggested systems can be re-selected at any time. Sometimes the mail server’s policies allow only certain sizes for messages or attachments. Therefore, you define a maximum size for attachments in the configuration. As soon as the maximum size is exceeded, the red lamp goes on. The user receives a hint during the creation. This restricts the use of documents. Furthermore, you influence the selection of attachments with individual ABAP extensions.
