Can I send binary data via IDoc ?

We have a requirement to send graphics images, does IDoc support binary data?

Thank you!

HI,

Type of data depends upon the data element of field in the segment of an idoc, if you are able to create the data element for binary data then it might be possible to send the binary data. You can try to send the binary data as string. But I have not come across any message type or basic type which allows to send binary data.

Thanks,

Hi,

Idocs dont conatin data in character format rather then binary format.

You can use mqseries while trasfering idocs which provide handling of binary data types. Binary data will be exchanged by Byte[] data types.
