Upload Image Problem

Hello,

We want to print an image on a SAP script, this SAPscript is a bespoke (Z) script

We are trying to upload an image dynamically (is image of a product, so differs on each call). We have successfully achieved this using PERFORM import_bitmap_bds IN PROGRAM saplstxbitmaps.

The problem now is that our Z program is called from a standard SAP program via a call to a function 'in update task'.

The function used in import_bitmap_bds (GUI_UPLOAD) cannot be used in background.

Is there an alternative to this, only suggestions I can find relate to using 'OPEN DATASET', but this seems to be only for text or excel.

All suggestions welcome,

Conor.
