View Connected Document

Explanation

This function is supposed to be used when you want to view a electronically-stored document that is connected to a Business Object, and only if there is only one document connected to the Business Object.

To view a document, select the business object in the business object's window, find the document you want using the Documents link in Attachments (in the context pane), click File Operations and select View Document. The electronically-stored view copy is then viewed through Adobe Acrobat™ applications, through an external viewer, or with the application that created the file. An external viewer can be configured to work on different file types.

It is not possible to perform any modifications to the document while viewing it.
