This is a continuation of blog for customizing eMail Form Template for Payment Advice. The predelivered eMail templates are maintained in Fiori App Maintain Email Templates.

The Email template is edited online in ABAP UI and does not need the Adobe Livecycle Designer needed for Master Form Template and Content Form Template.

This procedure uses standard SAP delivered Payment Advice form and is chosen because it is convenient to send the payment advice form by email while checks can be printed physically. Instead of standard SAP delivered payment advice form if you want to customize the form then please use the previous blogs for customizing Master Form and Content Form and then define the Content form in the last step under Output Parameter Determination - Form Template

TIP: Please note that you should download/modify/upload template in Q-System. After it is uploaded in Q-System, you can move forms across landscape using Q-System Fiori tile “Export Software Collection” and then import into P-System using Fiori tile “Import Software Collection”.
