MIME texts are also available as an alternative to maintaining standard texts for email content.
Using MIME templates allows more flexibility in content and formatting. MIME is the recommended
email format.
Configuration: In /DOL/AP_T08 the setting APPROVAL_EMAIL_FORMAT set to active with value
‘MIME’ will use the web template for the email texts instead of standard text. All other settings will
default to the standard text.
Note: /DOL/ standard texts are supplied. If custom standard texts are desired, then follow the
following steps.
1) Custom templates can be created via transaction SMW0. Rather than /DOL/xxx the custom
texts should be named Y4AP_XYZ_xxx where XYZ is your custom package name. Ask
your Serrla consultant or the Serrala Support Center for the proper naming convention for
your company
2) Maintain the body in your preferred editor and upload it back.
The first time SMW0 is used, a MIME editor will have to be assigned. From the SMWO SAP Web
Repository: Object Display screen, choose Settings -> Assign MIME editor.
Enter the MIME type as text/html and give the path of the editor you wish and SAVE
Text Names
The following table provides a list of all standard /DOL/ texts and templates.
Note: If BATCH mode is selected, Batch emails use the same template for approval, reminder,
and escalation, and everything is included on the email whether it may have previously gone out in
single mode or not.
Follow these instructions to create standard texts in other languages (e.g. Japanese, Korean,
Spanish, etc.) for SO10 and SMW0:
SO10: The Text Names and Text ID would be the same, the only difference when entering data on the SO10 initial screen would be the language. For Japanese, select ‘JA’; for Korean, select ‘KO’.
For example:
Depending on your language configuration, you might need to log on to the Japanese system to create the Japanese standard texts and the Korean system for the Korean texts.
SMWO: To maintain a different language, create a new object with the text name suffixed with an underscore and the two character language key. For example, to create a Spanish email body add ‘_ES’ to the template name so Y4AP_XYZ_APPTSINV_BODY_EM would become Y4AP_XYZ_APPTSINV_BODY_EM_ES.
