Add a Base64 encoded PDF as an attachment to a Sales Order in BC

Remco

Hi, I receive a Base64 encoded PDF through a webservice in BC16. I managed to deencode the PDF. My question is what the best way is to attach the PDF to a Sales Order? From the Sales Order I want to be able to open the PDF.

In my opinion the first step is to try determining which Sales Order the decoded PDF belongs. I don't know if there is already functionality to attach documents to sales order. If so you can extend that functionality ofcourse.

Hi, the Sales Order is not an issue. It is in the webservice call. It is more how to store the PDF in BC Saas. Use a Blob field, a Media field or a Media Set field. There is a document attachment table. Should I store the PDF in there? And depending on the solution where to store it, how can I open the PDF from a Blob field, Media field or a Media Set field in a BC Saas environment.
