E-mail notifications in business transaction with e-mail body

Background:

There is a standard functionality available in SAP CRM, by which E-mail Notifications can be configured for business transactions. We can  configure standard actions a by assigning appropriate actions to action profile which in turn assign to Business Transaction Type. The Business Transaction information is captured  as smartform pdf and this pdf files is sent as an attachment in the e-mail notifications. This e-mail notification doesn’t contain any other information apart form subject and attachment.

Business Scenario:

Sometimes, the business requirement is little bit more and the customer also wants that there should be a proper e-mail text body in e-mail notification apart from smartform PDF attachment. This e-mail should address to the person to which e-mail notification is being sent and it should also has some information about what is to be done on this new lead. For example, lets take a scenario, whenever a new lead is created in the system with status open, a mandatory partner function called ‘Lead Distributor’, is automatically determined from the territory based on Prospect’s attribute, . The business needs an e-mail notification should be sent to the Lead Distributor with the following text and smartform pdf attachment:

Hi Thomas,

You have been identified as the Lead Distributor for this new lead .

Please review and assign this new Lead to an appropriate Employee Responsible and update the Lead status to In Process, indicating that you have appropriately assigned this new Lead to responsible person.

Regards,
SAP CRM System Mgmt Team

Solution:

There is a standard class( CL_DOC_PROCESSING_CRM_ORDER ) available in SAP CRM system which we specify as a processing class for action in business transaction and processing method as CRM_ORDER_EXEC_SMART_FORM. We use this class in actions for smartform pdf e-mail notification, If we use this class then it can send smartform pdf as an attachment in e-mail notification but we cannot add email text body in those e-mail notifications.

To address the above mentioned business requirement, we need to create a copy of the standard class ( CL_DOC_PROCESSING_CRM_ORDER ) as ZCL_DOC_PROCESSING_CRM_ORDER and change the implementation of the method CRM_ORDER_EXEC_SMART_FORM as per the code below. Don’t forget to update the processing class as your Z class ( method name would remain same ) in individual action customizing.

      Hello  Ajaya,

      I am going through the same problem with adobe form.

      When i go to SPRO--->Customer Relationship Management ---->Basic Functions --->Actions --->Actions in Transaction --->Change Actions and Conditions ---->Define Action Profiles and Actions, I do not see where I can associate classes to action ?

      I think that concerning Adobe form I should Extends :

      CL_PDF_FORM_BCS Method CALL_BADI_PDF_DOC_PDFIF

      And / Or

      CL_BCS_PPF Method EXECUTE

      Best Regards

      Abdou
