Decrypt SAP Attachment

Former Member

For years my client has been attaching Word Documents, Spread Sheets and Text files to FI and PO documents using Services for Objects --> Create Attachment. They now want to put these attachments on an external server. In most cases the orignal documents have been destroyed. Is there a function module or utility that can be used to extract these SAP attachments and put them back into their native (DOC, XLS, TXT etc) format?

With just slight modification, the custom program will give me just what I need.

Thanks,

You probably need to look into fm 'SO_DOCUMENT_READ_API1'

or in SE38 you need to look into programs starting with DMS*
