On Post of sales order an email has to be sent to the customer with attachment of the order, while i do that i get the following error

The SMTP Mail system returned the following error : A recipient must be specified

The following is the code I used

SendEmailWithAttachment(CustNo : Code[20])

Customer.RESET;
Customer.SETRANGE("No.",SalesHeader."Sell-to Customer No.");
IF Customer.FINDFIRST THEN
CustEmail:=Customer."E-Mail";

SMTPMailSetup.GET;
FileName:=FileManagement.ServerTempFileName('pdf');
//FileName:=SMTPMailSetup."Path to Save Reports"+'Statement'+'.pdf';
REPORT.SAVEASPDF(205,FileName,SalesHeader);
SMTPMail.CreateMessage(SMTPMailSetup."Sender Name",SMTPMailSetup."User ID",CustEmail,'Sales Order','',TRUE);

SMTPMail.AddAttachment(FileName,SalesHeader."Sell-to Customer No."+'.pdf');
SMTPMail.AppendBody('Dear Sir');
SMTPMail.AppendBody(' ');
SMTPMail.AppendBody('Please find the attachment');
SMTPMail.AppendBody(' ');

SMTPMail.Send;
MESSAGE('Mail send to Customer');

Hi CDsilva,

Check if email address is specified in your customer card.

You can include the below validation in your code :

IF CustEmail <> '' THEN

//Create and Send Mail

Make sure CustEmail has a value, do check before creating above code and could also add the below statement to be clear.

Add this line of code before the SMTPMail.Send

SMTPMail.AddRecipients(CustEmail);

Hey ,

Your SMTP setup is properly updated ???also please check whether the email id is updated in customer card or not. It seems code is not able get the customer email I'd which is required to send the email.

Also you can make an entermediate table to make a log for the email send communication. Thur which you can check which mail is not sent and what was the reason while sending mail thru send mail function. "Just Error Handling "

Thanks

In your program your forget to write the code for whom you want to send email

If you want send email to customer then then use AddRecipient function

Hey CDsilva,

Error Message seems very clear as its expecting a recipient address. Please add recipient and then try.

Please let us know if its executed.
