• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FEH_PAYLOAD_EDITOR019 - Selected node contains binary data that cannot be displayed ?

  The SAP error message FEH_PAYLOAD_EDITOR019 indicates that the selected node in the payload editor contains binary data that cannot be displayed in the standard text format. This typically occurs when you are trying to view or edit a payload that includes binary content, such as images, files, or other non-text data types.
  Cause:
  
  Binary Data: The node you are trying to access contains binary data, which is not representable in a text format. This can happen in various contexts, such as when dealing with attachments, images, or other file types in SAP applications.
  Payload Structure: The structure of the payload may include nodes that are intended to hold binary data, and the editor is not equipped to display this type of content.
  
  Solution:
  
  Identify Binary Data: Determine which part of the payload contains the binary data. You may need to inspect the structure of the payload to find the specific node that is causing the issue.
  Use Appropriate Tools: If you need to view or manipulate the binary data, consider using tools or methods that are designed for handling binary content. For example, you might need to download the binary data and open it with an appropriate application (e.g., an image viewer for images, a text editor for text files).
  Modify Payload Handling: If you are developing or configuring the application, ensure that the payload handling logic correctly separates binary data from text data. This may involve using different nodes or structures to manage binary content.
  Check Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or support resources for specific guidance on handling binary data in the context of your application.
