3702077 - DMS attachment handling restriction at S/4hana output control at approve requiring documents

As per SAP article 2584312 the PDF with fragements (Gateway service based) form MM_PUR_PURCHASE_ORDER can handle item's DMS attachments at PRINT and EMAIL channel case.
However you experience the followings:

1. When the purchase order requires the approval of the release strategy or flexible workflow the attachments of the DMS document are attached to the output when the message type PURCHASE_ORDER is generated with output form template MM_PUR_PURCHASE_ORDER (Gateway service based PDF) at the time of approving of the document.
   
   
2. When the purchase order does NOT require approval of the release strategy or flexible workflow the attachments of the DMS document are NOT attached when the message type PURCHASE_ORDER is generated. But afterwards by doing a change on the PO the "change" output contains the attachments already.
