Add a graphic to SMARTFORM - where graphics are stored in AL11

[Former Member]

Hi - Please help

I need to add graphics to my SMARTFORM but the graphics are stored in the Application server directory i.e. AL11.

The graphic is determined at run time so I can not upload all of them via SE78.

How can I do this?

Thanks

Garth

Hi Garth,

I think it is not possible to get from al11.

If you dont have the chance to make use of SE78, you only other option is to make use of ADOBE forms instead of SMARTFORMS.

Just be aware that you need a java stack running on your system to be able to use adobe forms.

If you got e.G. a BI system, you have a java stack available.

/edit

WAIT, maybe there is a way.

You could determine the pictures you need at runtime, download them from AL11 to your local machine.

Then upload them through SE78 making use of batch input or FM´s if you can find some.

After that you could use them in your form.

Tho i suspect that wont be of a good performance.

Hi Garth,

For uploading images in smartform , you need to first upload them into the SAP system through transaction SE78

then only they can be used in the form.

in your smartform write in a code , based on different conditions set flags , and while printing those images in the condition tab

check for those flags , whichever will suit the condition wil get printed .

Hope this proves useful to you , revert back in case of any further questions .

Thanks

Hi

The graphic is a specific object generated by transaction SE78, it's not a simple file stored in somewhere of server Sap, that means you need to uploade them by SE78 before using them in a smartform
