Insert and display images in a report

Former Member

Hi ABAPers, I need to insert and display an image (bitmap format) in a standard ABAP report. With the consideration that the image (an employee photograph) could vary depending on the employee numer the user enter as an input parameter for the report. Any ideas of how can I do it? Help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Regards.

Sebastian.

No you can’t do it as Vashmi already said so , you can upload the pictures in ALV, but in your requirement I must say you should see the OSS note # 353949

[1] Question: Is it possible to configure the profile e.g. for a person?

Answer: It is possible to add or delete sub-profiles. You can do this in the customizing (transaction OOPF). There you can deactivate sub-profiles for an object type. Or add a new existing sub-profile.

<b>[2] Question: How can I bring a picture of the person into the profile header?

Answer:

You should have an employees picture with format JPG or BMP...

Start transaction OAAD to add the picture to SAP ArchiveLink. Press the Create-Button there. You have to type in PREL for the Business object and HRICOLFOTO for the Document type. Then press create. On the popup you must maintain the wished Personnel number for that the picture should be valid. Then press 'Continue'. Choose the picture and continue.

For the screen header 00 (if it isn't changed) you should see the picture in the profile.</b>

Hope this’ll give you idea!!

<b>P.S award the points.</b>

Good luck

Images cannot be include in a stadard report. Either you need to use in ALV or SAP Form.

Hope this helps..

I know what Vashmi said. But because this was a simple requirement in which I have to display some basic information of a person, like a resume, I've just decided to use a standard report with write sentences rather than a smartform. Anyway I will try with that instructions and see what happens.

Thank you Saquib.
