Sap Document viewer

Hello,

I have to display some documents in a loop with SAP Document Viewer using FM ARCHIVOBJECT_DISPLAY. The problem is that the FM is called a few times, depending how many documents I have to display, but the documents are opened in the same window. Is there any way to open the documents in sepparate windows?

thank you.

hi thre...

You can use the following techniques for displaying documents within the Document Viewer:

HTML Control (standard setting)

HTML control is an Internet browser embedded in the SAPGUI to enable all Internet browser display techniques (direct display, plug-ins). You cannot display documents in FAX and TIF formats.

For displaying FAX and TIF formats, you can implement the display program WANG Imaging, which is supplied with every Windows installation.

This is the standard setting; you do not need to perform any Customizing.

ECL Control

ECL control is supplied by SAP and can display both TIF and FAX formats. For more information on ECL control, see the SAP library under Cross-Application Components ® Document Management ® Viewer for Displaying Original Application Files.

To activate ECL control, choose the following in the Implementation Guide (IMG): SAP Web Application Server ® Basis Services ® ArchiveLink ® Front End Communication Customizing ® Make Settings for Storage and Display.

Instead of the Document Viewer, you can use your storage system provider viewer to display documents. To do this, you need to carry out some Customizing settings for communication between the SAP system and the storage system. The Customizing settings override the standard settings. For more information, see Front End Communication.

You also have the following Customizing options for the Document Viewer:

Deactivate the Generic Object Services Toolbox.

Use your own HTML page for displaying.

To make these settings, choose the following in the IMG: SAP Web Application Server ® Basis Services ® ArchiveLink ® Front End Communication Customizing ® Make Settings for Storage and Display.
