Question

Hi Guys,
I need to send the PO item attachment the data stored in the DMS document type SRM and Storage cat. DMS_C1_ST,

So please let me know is the any FM which gives me the DMS data in Solix format or if any snippet available.

not sure if this will help or not. we do not use a function module. we go directly after the file and read it into a binary table, and it works fine:
  types: t_xline(2048) type x.
  data: data_tab  type standard table of t_xline,
        data_line type                   t_xline.
  data: alen type i.
      translate draw-dttrg to lower case.
      concatenate '/home/dms/'
                  draw-dttrg  "vault
                  draw-filep  "file name
                  into picture.
      open dataset picture for input in binary mode.
      check sy-subrc = 0.
      read dataset picture into data_line.
      while sy-subrc = 0.
        append data_line to data_tab.
        read dataset picture into data_line actual length alen.
      endwhile.
      close dataset picture.
* once we hit end of file, we need to check one last time to see if any data
* came in on the last read, because SUBRC 4 means that end of file
* was reached, but maybe data was still read in. the system stores the bytes
* read in ALEN.
      if alen <> 0.
        append data_line to data_tab.
      endif.
our dms stores all files in the /home/dms folder. we use that with the vault name and file name int he DRAW table to determine where the file is, then we read it directly into the internal table.
we use this all of the time to pull in documents from DMS. You could likely read direct into a solix table, as well.
