Hi All,

I have searched many SCN thread for below garbage data issue but couldn't find any solution for the same. I am using all the required FMs for type conversion but result is junk image data due to which image attchment is not opening.

I am adding image JPG file in Sales order using FM SO_OBJECT_INSERT.

1. Using GUI_UPLAOD ( BIN type ) - Image data is obtained in Raw string format

2. FM SO_SOLIXTAB_TO_SOLITAB - used to get the data SOLITAB format required for FM SO_OBJECT_INSERT

Here FM SO_SOLIXTAB_TO_SOLITAB is gving garbage data.

What you call "garbage data" is simply the character representation of bytes of the original JPG file. Nothing abnormal (knowing that at the time of SO (SAPoffice) programs design, one character was equivalent to one byte). You should simply pass it to the SO_OBJECT_INSERT function module.

Note that if you want to send a mail with attachment, SO_OBJECT_INSERT is very old, and you should now use the CL_BCS class and classes of the BCS family. You won't have to bother with characters for binary files, if you use the parameter I_ATT_CONTENT_HEX of method ADD_ATTACHMENT of class CL_DOCUMENT_BCS. Search the forum for more information.
