Delivering documents to SAPconnect
nodes in SAP R/3 Enterprise
This technical note provides the following information:
Examples of how to deliver SAP R/3 application-generated documents intended for fax and e-mail destinations
to a SAPconnect node in an SAP R/3 Enterprise system. The examples use sample SAPscript programs, sample
layout sets, and a sample ABAP report program that are described in Table 1-1. The sample code for these
programs are included in “Sample Programs” on page 15.
Instructions for uploading and testing the execution of these programs in a test environment of an SAP R/3
Enterprise system.
Instructions for using the Job Wizard in an SAP R/3 Enterprise system to schedule a background job to deliver
documents waiting in a queue at a SAPconnect node to the Dazel SAPconnect server.
NOTE: The screen images in this technical note are from the SAP R/3 GUI version 6.20.
Prerequisites
The information in this technical note is intended for SAPscript and ABAP developers. It assumes that you know how
to develop SAPscript and ABAP programs for use in an SAP R/3 Enterprise system. It also assumes that your SAP
R/3 Enterprise test environment includes an installation of HP Output Server 3.3 and HP Output Manager for R/3 6.1
at the appropriate service pack levels for use with an SAP R/3 Enterprise system. For more information about using
HP Output Server 3.3 and HP Output Manager for R/3 6.1 with an SAP R/3 Enterprise system, see the release notes
for Service Pack 03.4 for HP Output Manager for R/3 6.1. The information in this technical note also assumes that
you know how to configure the following:

a SAPconnect node in an SAP R/3 Enterprise system
a Dazel SAPconnect Server in HP Output Manager for R/3 6.1
Background
SAP R/3 Enterprise does not support the SAPcomm communication connection for faxing. The SAPcomm
communication connection enables SAP application-generated documents to be sent through the the R/3 host spool
system and enables the automatic lookup of customer fax numbers and routing of documents to the correct
destination based on various parameters, such as customer or vendor name. The SAP-recommended alternative for
faxing SAP R/3 application-generated documents in an SAP R/3 Enterprise system is the SAPconnect
communication connection.
