When
a sales order that has been created on the web has been saved, this should
trigger an automatic email confirmation to be sent out. The configuration is
described below at a high level (primarily screen shots). In this example, a
new output condition type is created, which will trigger the email confirmation
for the order type(s) used for Internet orders.
This
documentation does not cover the setup of the email server (Exchange, SendMail,
etc.),RFCs, SAP Office, and development of the SAPscript form, since these are
different at each site. This document covers the configuration required within
the SD module of the R/3 system to trigger the generation of output via email.
