HTML Email and Spanish/Portuguese Characters

$

Hi All,

     We have written a code which fills up an internal table with email content in HTML format. The fort declaration is Arial. There is some issue with Portuguese / Spanish characters. Descrição shows up as Descrição . The best part is in SOST the mail looks messed up however when it reaches Outlook it looks ok. Now if the same mail is sent to Lotus Notes it looks bad. I have a feeling that in the end it may have to something to do with mail client. But my question is can we fix sth in SAP for this? Specially when the SOST looks messed up.

 

The way code is written is it creates a table with HTML coding. Then it converts the HTML code to BINARY using SCMS_TEXT_TO_BINARY FM. I am not using any encoding (but i tried using 4110 (which is for UTF-8 I believe), and it did not help).

 

This is SRM workflow notification email which uses CL_BCS class and methods. In debugging I see that the standard code uses BINARY table to send HTML mails.

 

Any pointers? Can it be a Unicode thing? The system is non-Unicode.

 

Thanks
