How to add images in sales documents?

[jan_weidhaase]

Hi

I am looking for possibilities to add images in sales quotations (or other sales documents). By now we are using SmartForms.

Can I include a number of images (maybe two or more) dynamically by URL in Smartforms?

Is there an idea of a solution without uploading images static in SAP Database?

Or is the only solution using Adobe Document Services having mor dynamically possibilities?

Thanks for ideas in advance.

Best regards

Hi,

Smartforms support only BDS (Transaktion SE78) persisted bitmaps, which are converted to SAP OTF format compatible bitmaps during loading.

On SCN there are some examples of people programming storing images to BDS "dynamically" prior to calling Smartform, but the obvious disadvantage of all of these workarounds is - depending on the image color depth, resolution etc., the BDS conversion and storing algorithm can be quite slow. Also, storing thousands of one time use images would "litter" BDS, which is meant for things like logos.

cheers
