Can inbound Idoc Contain .PDF attachment?

Hi there,
I have a requirement where there is a need to create an Inbound Idoc in the CRM system containing a .PDF file attachment.
1) Can and IDOC contain file attachments?
2) If yes which segment woult contain it, or how it should be attached.
The inbound idoc would be created from an XI system.
Regards,
Kiran

Kiran,
Its not going to be easy. If you plan to use that then
1. Either you need to have two different interfaces one for the IDOC and one for PDF or design your interface to split that and send as two different messages to R/3.
2. Moreover do you want to maintain the PDF as it is in R/3? If that is the case, then you might have to write some Custom RFC which can read the PDF and upload the same and attach the doc.
Regards,
Ravi

How can I open a pdf attachment in Mozilla Thunderbird?

In my Thunderbird email account, I checked a box for MSWord to open all attachments, but I would like to reverse that decision since I got a pdf attachment, and MSWord doesn't open that. How do I change it back to the way it was so the pdf attachment can be opened with adobe?

Tools > Options > Attachments > Incoming tab
* in the 'Content Type' column:
* look for: Microsoft Office Word document
* then look at the 'Action' for it
* click on the current Action and select 'use Microsoft Office Word'
If this is already setup ok then leave alone and do the next step.
Is there a 'Content type' for Adobe Acrobat Document' ?
If yes,

Can't get a PDF attachment to open without a pop-up box opening.

Every time I get a PDF attachment in AOL Email I click on it to open and it brings up a dialog box wanting to know what program to use to open. I select Adobe Acrobat Reader and then check the box to do this all the time and click on OK. The PDF opens and I can view it. The very next time the same box appears as to what I want to do. How can I eliminate that annoying box?

fyi, your site says you don't have to register to ask a question,but then takes you back here where you try to reply and it tells you to register, and round and round we go. No longer a fan of firefox.

You can maintain two different address for the business agreements (can be treated as mailing address for the printed invoice)but you can not maintain more than one standard address for BP as any given time.

How can I open a PDF attachment?

I work for FEMA and receive a daily briefing. The email comes with a PDF attachment. As of Monday, when I clicked on the link the PDF would not open. I updated my Adobe Reader, thinking that would resolve the issue but it still will not open.

If you save the attachment to your desktop, can you open it using File>Open in Reader?
If not, what exactly happens? What version of Reader are you using?

How can I send a .pdf attachement using maildemo_sql.txt

Hi
I have created a PL/SQL package using the following link.
Could you plese tell me how can I send a .pdf as an attachement using the follwing package?
http://www.oracle.com/technology/sample_code/tech/pl_sql/htdocs/maildemo_sql.txt
regards

When using the "MailDemo" package, in order to send email attachements, the document you attach MUST reside on the Database Server or UTL_SMTP or UTL_MAIL Oracle packages won't be able to find the file. I recommend you define a location (directory) on the database server file system where all email attachements must be stored and reference this location using an Oracle Directory object. You will need to modify the BEGIN_ATTACHMENT procedure to add the file location referenced by the Oracle Directory object to the filename parameter. For example:
/* Create the Oracle DIRECTORY */
CREATE OR REPLACE DIRECTORY FILE_ATTACHMENTS as '/temp/attachments/';
/* Modification to MAILDEMO */
PROCEDURE begin_attachment(conn         IN OUT NOCOPY utl_smtp.connection,
                    mime_type    IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT 'text/plain',
                    inline       IN BOOLEAN DEFAULT TRUE,
                    filename     IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT NULL,
                    transfer_enc IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT NULL) IS
BEGIN
    write_boundary(conn);
    write_mime_header(conn, 'Content-Type', mime_type);
    IF (filename IS NOT NULL) THEN
       IF (inline) THEN
       write_mime_header(conn, 'Content-Disposition',
         /* 'inline; filename="'||BFILENAME('filename||'"'); */ /* Line BEFORE */
           'inline; filename="'||BFILENAME('FILE_ATTACHMENTS',filename)||'"'); /* Line AFTER */
       ELSE
       write_mime_header(conn, 'Content-Disposition',
         /* 'attachment; filename="'||filename||'"'); */ /* Line BEFORE */
           'attachment; filename="'||BFILENAME('FILE_ATTACHMENTS',filename)||'"'); /* Line AFTER */
       END IF;
    END IF;
    IF (transfer_enc IS NOT NULL) THEN
      write_mime_header(conn, 'Content-Transfer-Encoding', transfer_enc);
    END IF;
    utl_smtp.write_data(conn, utl_tcp.CRLF);
END;If you have to send the file attachment from the User's workstation, then I suggest you either add the ability to FTP a file from a users workstation to the Database Server; use a javabean to send email directly from the client workstation or use WebUtil to open an Outlook message and attach the file using Outlook. I personally prefer using the database package to send email because you have a central point that all processes use and that makes the process easier to maintain. If you opt to try the Java Bean or WebUtil options, here are some great links that work really well also.
Java Option:
Send email with html body and local file attachments
WebUtil Option:
Sending Email via Outlook via forms
Re: Sending email from Oracle Forms with attachments
I cannot confirm the WebUtil options work as I have not tested these myself, however, I have tested the Java option and it works fine.
Hope this helps,

Can't open big PDF attachment from Mail

hi, guys:
We have this issue with both iPad and iPad2.
I have setup EXchange account and be able to download and read Emails.
However, we found when we try to open big size (more than 1MB ) PDF.
As matter of fact, we can't even download the size of file.
We click the attachment, then, arrow starts to spin and spin and none stop.
Any ideas why? and how do we resolve this issue?
Thank you very much.

This looks like a Launch Services issue. The following article describes how to manually reset Launch Services. The notes at the bottom of the article also provide information about the side effects of deleting each of the files involved.
Resetting Launch Services
The following article also describes the side effects of cache cleaning:
Side effects of System cache cleaning
The following article provides links to some utilities that can be used for troubleshooting and cache cleaning:
Resolving Disk, Permission, and Cache Corruption
It seems that the most appropriate utility for solving this particular problem is Tiger Cache Cleaner.
In addition to the utilities mentioned above, you may also consider OnyX, which is free. If you want to try OnyX, after installing it, do this (be sure to read the articles about the side effects of cache cleaning first):
1. Quit all applications.
2. Launch OnyX and enter your administrator password.
3. Click Maintenance. In the Reset section, check LaunchServices database.
4. You may uncheck any other pre-checked options if you've already done them using other utilities.
5. Click the Execute button.
6. Restart.
If that doesn't solve the problem, you may try again checking the Links between documents and applications option in step 3 instead.
And yet another free cache cleaning utility is Cache Out X.
Please, let me know whether you were able to solve the problem, what worked for you and what didn't.

How can I see an pdf-attachement in preview

I got a coded pdf document with an included attachement.
I can see this attachements in the Acrobat reader bit not in preview.
Is there a possibility to see this attachements in preview as well.
Thanks.

It is not a normal pdf. It is a pdf which has an included attachement.
This attachement is not shown in preview, but I can open the attachement in the acrobat reader.

HT2500 How can I ensure a PDF attachment opens/displays when a recipient receives an email so they don't have to download/open it manually when I send it using Mail?

I need to send a PDF document and have it display within the body of the email instead of as a download icon. I'm using Mail and it previews before I send it, but the end user gets a blank email with an attachment icon.
Any ideas?

You cannot ensure that. It depends on the email program your recipient is using. If his program displays icons rather than previews for PDFs, than that is what he will see. Aside from convincing him to use Apple Mail, you cannot control how his application works.

How can i save a PDF attachment in email to Adobe Reader?

I want to save PDF attachments that come in emails so I can open them full screen. I'm thinking it has to do with Adobe Reader?

Can't see a pdf attachment

I've recently got an iphone and a work colleague is sending me pdf attachments of drawings for animation. now i can open the pdf but it just shows as blank pages. Anyone any ideas why this should be? Is there an app i can get to see them?
Thanks
Chris

You should be able to view them directly, as .pdf is a supported file format. See if he/she is sending the email, with the attachments, as an RTF formated email, if so, ask him/her to send the email as plain text. See if you can view the attachments now.

Can not send a pdf attachment from 1

my 1&1 email wont let me send PDF attachments ,it just
stays at the load screen and never completes

Hi sean4adobe,
I'm sorry you're having trouble with your mail client. If you're unable to send PDF attachments, I believe the issue lies with 1&1, and not with Acrobat. Have you tried contacting their support? I did a quick google search, but didn't come up with anything that looked useful.
Best,

Can´t open pdf attachment in Outlook 2010 after inst. Reader X

Hi!
Today I updated Reader from 9 to 10.1.2 - I did not face any problems with the installation.
But now I can not open any pdf attachment in Outlook 2010 (Reader opens and closes immediately) if Reader X is not running.
When the Reader is allready running I can open the files without problems.
When I save the file on my desctop I can also open it - also if reader is not allready running.
I un- and reinstalled the reader fiew times, also tried the repair tool - nothing helped.
I receive a lot of pdf Files - any help would be great.

Did you try this? It worked for me.
http://www.darrenstraight.com/blog/2010/12/16/adobe-reader-x-there-was-an-error-opening-th is-document-access-denied/
Open up Adobe Reader X
On the Toolbar Menu go to Edit > Preferences
Go to the general tab under Categories.
Untick “Enable Protected Mode at Startup”
If asked if sure, click Yes and then Ok.
Now close Adobe Reader X and try opening the PDF again.

Error in PDF attachment send by SO_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1

Hello,
I need to send an email with PDF attachment. The PDF file is stored on SAP server.
I use READ DATASET FOR INPUT IN BINARY MODE in order to get PDF content.
I fill a table T_DATA with content (T_DATA : STANDARD TABLE OF XSTRING)   => T_DATA contains only 1 line.
Then I convert XSTRING in BINARY with function SCMS_XSTRING_TO_BINARY => fill T_DATA_CHAR (type table of solisti1)
CALL FUNCTION 'SCMS_XSTRING_TO_BINARY'
            EXPORTING
              buffer                = s_data        => first LINE of T_DATA

             output_length         = w_output_length
            TABLES
              binary_tab            = t_data_char.
I fill tables for 'SO_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1'.
APPEND LINES OF t_data_char TO t_contents_bin.
            s_packing_list-transf_bin = 'X'.
            s_packing_list-head_start = 1.

            s_packing_list-doc_size = w_output_length.
            APPEND s_packing_list TO t_packing_list.
The mail is well created but i can't open the PDF attachment because I have the message "There was error in opening. File damaged & could not be repaired".
What can I do ?
Thanks.

Inbound idoc ( shipment) - Status change

Hi Experts,
I will be getting an inbound idoc containing tracking number of the shipment from an external agent.
I have to update this tracking number in the shipment and change the status of 'shipment Start' and 'Shipment End' to be completed.
1. Is this status change feasible ?
2. If so can you please guide me both to update tracking number & status .
Thanks
Seema

Hi Martin,
Thanks for the response.
Can you tell me which basic type will suit for this among SHPMNT01 to 05. I need to get the tracking number from any of the segments.
thanks
