hi,
does anyone know if it is possible to send PDF-Documents within IDoc's (like invoic01). I have the problem that I must transfer an invoice from a external system into SAP. By the invoice-IDoc I must send an PDF-Doc. into SAP. Furthermore I must archive this PDF-Dok. with ArchiveLink.
Thanks
Markus

Hi Markus,
This can't be done with the standard.
If you have a developer key, you have all you need :-).
Anyhow I would strongly prevent you to include binary data in an IDOC since this way you'll be saving the pdf two times: One in the archiveLink system and the second one in the database (in the idoc persistence layer).
If your company/customer has acces to an EAI system (XI or at least Sap Business Connector), i would try this approach.
hope it helps,
David R.
