Display a PDF Document from a standard transacction

Former Member — Mon, 16 Jul 2007 16:04:15 GMT

Hi.

I need to display a PDF document located in a server outside SAP. The idea is to implement a menu exit and add a new button to a standard transaction. When the user press the new button a PDF document must be displayed.

I want to know if this solution is possible and if you know any function in SAP to display a PDF document.

Thanks.

Diana.

Hi !

What you can try is using the "HTML-Control".

Becaus it is using the "Internet Explorer" it should be able to display a

PDF-Document located a the URL (that also can be a file://.... URL).

So please see the Docu of the HTML-Control so see how it is to be used.

rainer

Some points would be nice if that helped.

Hi,

Use CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>EXECUTE.

Pass the necessary parameters.
