Send Mail with Attachment From Navision.

Hi all,

We have seen how to save a report into PDF and how to send mail to a customer.

Let's link these two post in one i.e. Mailing statement to a customer into PDF Format.

This article is part of the Series. Please Refer Table of Content here.

If you have the old objects set let me brief you what I will be changing - 

1) I have moved "Path to Save Report" From user setup Table/Form to SMTP Mail Setup.

2) On customer card there will be a menu button for Mails which will have all existing options and a new option for sending mail with attachment.

3) We have two Codeunit that we will be using -
a) 50000 - Save Report in PDF
b) 50001 - Send Mail

4) I am creating a new function in Codeunit 50001 which will internally call Codeunit 5000 and then will send mail to customer with the Report as attachment in PDF Format.

How it Looks Now -

1) SMTP SETUP.


2) Customer Card.


3) Codeunit Send Mail.



Let's see what we get in output.

Mail -


Attachment -



NAV Version - NAV 2009 R2 IN.

You can find all related objects on my SkyDrive Public Folder.

File Name - NAV - SEND MAIL With Attachment.rar

Also on SkyDrive you will find the new objects which will have merged Codeunit 50000  & 50001.
I will be using Same for future posts.

NAV - SEND MAIL With Attachment (Single Mail Codeunit).rar

      Not Sure in NAV 2009 but its a default feature in New version of NAV. I would suggest to upgrade as its an easy one.

Hi Readers, We have already talked about the number of steps for upgrading to Business Central on Premises from different NAV versions. After that article, I received multiple requests for an article which list down steps for Data Migration. In this article, we will discuss steps of data migration to MSDYN365BC (on-Prem) from NAV 2017. For this article, I am considering a Cronus Demo Database without any customization.

Direct Upgrade to Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central (on-Prem) is from following versions - 1. NAV 2015. 2. NAV 2016. 3. NAV 2017. 4. NAV 2018.
