I'm guessing from your post here and from what look like column headings in your here-doc that you have an array of arrays that you want to make a table from. The following code does that by using sprintf to format each sub-array. The code seems to have a glitch where the second and subsequent lines have the first column pushed one space to the right. I can't see what's causing that at present so I'll show the code as it stands to illustrate the principle.

use strict;
use warnings;

my @SKUs =
   (
      [ q{Bumble}, q{Broth}, 16 ],
      [ q{Wedgie}, q{Benns}, 22 ],
      [ q{Party}, q{Games}, 6 ],
   );

local $";

my $msg = <<END_OF_BODY;

The number of SKUs that have been flagged as DeleteMe

Here is the list of SKUs and their counts:

PLANNERCODE\tDEALER\tCOUNT
-----------------------------

@{ [ map { sprintf qq{%11s\t%6s\t%5d\n}, @$_ } @SKUs ] }


END_OF_BODY

print $msg;

Here's the (slightly flawed) output. If any Monk can see what is causing the misalignment I'd be very interested in finding out.

I hope I have guessed right and this of use to you.

Update: shigetsu spotted my error, thanks. local $"; line inserted above here-doc to suppress the normal list separator of a space that was throwing things off.
