Is there a way to add text to the body of the (generated) email?

You must customize the standard AX frameworks for print management and report sending for this. Here is one solution for using e-mail templates shared on this forum:

Also Lachlan had similar requests and have shared a proof-of-concept with some updates too:

You might have to spend some time to set it up, test, and possibly expand those solutions to cover your requirements.

Or there are paid solutions too from ISVs:

You can use SRSPrintDestinationSettings for that. See below syntax.

SRSPrintDestinationSettings .parmEMailContract().parmBody(body);

Hi Vilmos,

The first link you shared was about to edit Classes\PrintDestinationSettings. But I don't find this class in my system but found SrsPrintDestinationSettings. I have started the customization but I am not able to figure out the data entered over SrsPrintDestinationSettingsForm like subject, email address, where dose its actually storing the data ?

Can you please help me with the same.

Hi,

Please follow this video(as suggested by Vilmos):

organicax.com/.../adding-message-body-text-to-email-destination-for-reports.

According to the video we need to modify following objects.

Form - SRSPrintDestinationSettingsForm

Class - SRSPrintDestinationSettings

Class - smmOutlookEMail

Hi Zeeshan,

Please look at the link Provided by Chaitanya. It uses the same class I suggested above and how to read body from the control. You can easily add text you want to add to generated body and pass it to SRSPrintDestinationSettings .parmEMailContract().parmBody(body); method.

Hi Chaitanya and Sukrut,

By following that video, I have made changes to

SRSPrintDestinationSettingsForm

SRSPrintDestinationSettings

but I am not able to understand what changes i have to make on SmmOutlookEmail even in that video its not clear.

Currently while running debugger I can see the mail body text message in SRSPrintDestinationSettings.parmEmailContract(), but its not going to mail.

I think I am missing something to change on SmmOutlookEmail () class.

Did you check their code sample linked by Lachlan in the same post? You already have all the information that you need in my first reply. We generally use this forum to provide high level guidance to steer you in a direction on how to resolve the problem on your own.

Since these are low level framework customizations and if you are having trouble understand of what you are doing to those, maybe you should involve a more experienced developer to help you out and make you understand the details.
