There are many options to sent the concurrent program output to the email recipients.

1. Use the workflow to lunch the report and last node should be used for sending email . You need to code in such way that to get the report output and store in a table column and send that out put as an email .

2. Create a shell script to copy the report output from out directory and you can use use the mail utilities to send emails. Register as a host concurrent program with the shell script and include in a request set . you need to pass the request id and location of the out directory to this program to send email.
Here is very useful link
http://oracle.anilpassi.com/email-output-of-concurrent-program-request-2.html

3. Create another printer type , this should have custom driver and should have an argument to invoke a shell script copy the output from the out directory and send emails to the recipients.

Look at this metalink notes

4. You can create a shell script copy the file from the out directory and invoke an FTP Session and FTP the file to recipient’s FTP location . This will work for very large files .

You can refer these notes for additional info.

Hi Joy,
Thank you very much for the information provided.

Yeah these link are giving how to send ... but no sample shell prog...

I did as follows with pl/sql

1.created the report as concurrent program.

2.checked the utl_file_dir and smtp_out_server parameters with the help of DBA.They were set correctly as per DBA.

3.created a directory on output directory of the sever.

4.downloaded the UTL_MAIL API with he help of DBA.

5.created on more concurrent prog of pl/sql stored procedure
in this i called the report with FND_REQUEST.SUBMIT_REQUEST
if that is completed/normel then
i called utl_mail.send_attach_raw to send the output of the request id geneted above.And emails were going Smile

for a given email address.

Because of the API it can send attachment upto 32kb.

Now i wanted to send irrespective of the size of attachment.

I didn't find sample shell prog in the links provided by you.
if u can please provide me with sample shell script....because i haven't done shell prog before.

Thanks,
Kittu.

abd show the script to DBA and he will turn around that script for your use.

Create a thread in unix forum .

Joy,
Thanks for your reply.
Anyhow i have to do some R&D work on it Smile

I was thinking that upto 32kb was successful with pl/sql then y can't we do for more size... thats it.
So shell will be the replacement,right?

Thanks again,
Kittu.
