Key Points

• cl_bcs framework works in background and supports all formats.
• You can attach:
  • TXT/CSV → use i_att_content_text
  • Binary (PDF, Excel, Word) → use i_att_content_hex
• Run in background → email will still be sent (no popup).
• Use COMMIT WORK → ensures email is queued in SAPconnect.
• Check status in SOST transaction.
