Senders and Recipients

Use

To enable an object to be sent using BCS, a sender and one or more recipients must be passed to BCS. This means that an instance of a class has to be created, which implements the interface IF_SENDER_BCS for the sender and the interface IF_RECIPIENT for the recipient. You then pass this instance to BCS with the method SET_SENDER or SET_RECIPIENT of the class CL_BCS. If you want to pass several recipients, you have to call the method SET_RECIPIENT for each recipient.

Features

Classes already exist whose constructors you can use to create addresses as recipients or senders:

• CL_SAPUSER_BCS Internal user

• CL_ORGUNIT_BCS Organizational unit

• CL_CAM_ADDRESS_BCS Internet, fax, SMS or RML address (for more information, see CL_CAM_ADDRESS_BCS)

The following addresses can only be used for recipients:

• CL_DISTRIBUTIONLIST_BCS Distribution list

• CL_BOR_OBJECT_BCS Business object (for more information, see CL_BOR_OBJECT_BCS)

• CL_SAPROLE_BCS SAP role
