Displaying Documents
Use
This function displays individual documents.
Features
The document is generally displayed on the screen itself, that is, in place. The document is displayed either using SAP Desktop Office Integration (DOI, see also
BC - Desktop Office Integration) or using viewer control (see also
Viewer for Displaying Original Files in Standard and
SAP HTML Viewer). If possible, documents of classes BMP, GIF, JPG, PCX, PS, TIF, TXT and STL are displayed in place using the viewer control first named, the EAI viewer. If, however, a DOI-compatible application is found, this is used to display the document. MS Office 97, Lotus SmartSuite 98 and the Acrobat Reader are currently supported, that is, document classes DOC, XLS, PPT, 123, PRZ, LWP and PDF. Documents of classes GIF, JPG, MOV, HTM and XML can be displayed in place using
HTML control. Documents of document classes FAX and OTF are displayed according to the settings in the relevant SAP ArchiveLink protocol (see
Maintaining Protocols).If it is not possible to display the document in place, an appropriate viewer that is available on the PC is started and the document is displayed "out place".
