How to get image (attachment) stored in MM03 to Smartforms?

[pawadee_k]

I am working on a smartforms that required an image stored in Master Master (MM03).

I looked for examples, which uses CALL FUNCTION 'SAPSCRIPT_GET_GRAPHIC_BDS' to get the image from STXBITMAPS

But the table that seems to be holding the attachment I want is SRGBTBREL not STXBITMAPS.

Please advice on how can I get the attached image for smartforms.

Image stored in MM03 (material master)? Are you referring to attachment? It is GoS.

Yes the file is from Attachment List

Can you give a bit of a guideline how I can display GoS attachment as graphic in Smartforms?

And is SRGBTBREL the table I need to get the attachment?

If you want to stick with smartforms, it sounds a bit tricky.

You will have to kind of create an SE78 image for each material, create a name for it dynamically each time you want to print and print it as an image. This is cumbersome because they will not maintain an image each time they create a material, so, you will have to read this attachment, and create one in background if you didn't find the image. I am not sure even after all these work-arounds, it will work.

A far better and simpler solution would be:

to switch to adobe for printouts.

I think creating SE78 image for each material will be too much work as you said.

I am trying to understand the article you attach but I don't have Form Designer on my system just yet, so couldn't try it out. But I am thinking is it then possible to use the functions mentioned in the article as program line in Smartforms?

But the article itself is still very confusing for me as newbie, I am still confuse about the parameters to be passed to the function like how it is connected to the material code.

The only way to not be a newbie is learning subjects you don't understand.

Start searching for GoS and Adobe Forms.

All the best.
