Archivelink setup

Hello,
In our company we archive scanned documents in IXOS.
The archivelink is setup to store the documents in IXOS and to view the archived documents with the IXOS viewer.
Now we want to create a new content repository for which we want to store documents on a file server instead of using IXOS.
Is there someone who knows how to set this up ?
I know that you need to create a new protocol via OAA3 and new application via OAA4 but how should this be configured.
We want to store all kind of document classes : FAX, PDF, TIF, DOC, XLS, ...
I would appreciate any help !
wkr,
Andy

Hello,
I will face the same problem in September. Sorry, I have no solution at moment. I will be please to share your experience in the next months. In my company we are evaluating to move from IXOS to SAP Content Server. Is the same Scenario you are facing?
I'm collenting advantages and disadvantages. Can you help me to find some documetation on this subject?
Thank you! Fabio

Best practices for transport of setup of archivelink/contentserver

Hi
I'm using the archivelink setup to store all kind of documents/files and to archive outgoing documents and print lists (print and archive).
But I don't know how we should transport the setting.
We need different setup in dev/qa/prd systems because we don't want documents from our development system stored in the same server as the documents from our productive system.
We have 2 setup used in different scenarios :
1) We link the ObjectType/Doc.type to different content repositories in OAC3 (D1 for dev, Q1 for qa and P1 for prd)
2) We point the content repository to different HTTP servers in OAC0/CSADMIN
In both scenarios I see 2 options.
1) open for customizing in qa and prd systems and maintain the different setups directly in each system.
2) We Transport the prd content repositories all the way, but delete the transport with qa content repositories after import to the qa system and finally we don't transport the dev content repositories at all.
Both options are bad practices, but what are Best practices?
Best regards
Thomas Madsen Nielsen

Hi David,
The best mechanism is probably transporting the objects in the same order as creating/changing them. The order would be Application Components, Info Area, Info-objects, Transfer Structure, Transfer Rules, Communication Structure, InfoCube, Update rules, Infopackages and the frontend components.
There are many topics on BW transports in SDN forum. You can search for them.
You can refer to this link for more details on transports in BW System:

Save attached documents in ME23 to content server

Hello,
I need to save the attached documents in purchase orders, via ME23 transaction into a content server.
I've been reading the DMS documentation, but I don't know if I have to use archivelink technology or basic DMS.
I've got the content server installed and configured in CSADMIN, and a Z repository created in OAC0, but don't know which objecttype and doctype to add at OAC3, (I've found BUS2012 and EKKO objects in references to purchase orders, but don't know which document type use).
Also need to create a link in a TOA* table, but don't know difference between TOA01, TOA02 and TOA03.
Dear experts, can you point me in the right direction?
Thank you in advance
Marc

Hi,
For Archivelink setup you will need to perform configurations in following sections
Tcode OAC2 : Define workstation appliction for relevant object
for eg: QMILETTER2 -> PDF
Assign archivelink type create to the relevant objects in table TOAM_C using tcode SM30
For eg.: BUS2078 QMOLETTER2 X A2
Maintain link table entry for the object using OAC3.
BUS2117 QMICERTPDF X A2 TOA01
Additionallly maintain entry in tables TOADV and TOAAR. Link table entries.
In case you are using Archivelink to store the documents no need to define any document type. HEre we will use standard Object link setting.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Deepak Kori

Archiving Link in SAP BW

I require help understanding Archive Link functionality with respect to SAP BW. As in How does it work with BW.
If I have documents stored in an external server A and activated ArchiveLink connection to the server A and R/3, then in BW how can I make a DocNo. retrive this document stored on the external server.
Moreover is there a way to retrieve ArchiveID and Archive Object ID to construct an URL to the documentserver and display it in the BW report.
I hope what I am trying to achieve is doable.Please suggest if anyone has experience on this or has some documents on archivelink setup etc.

Configuring ArchiveLink

We are running ECC 5.0, and I am trying to configure ArchiveLink so we can use it to store scanned accounting documents on a third-party server, and link the scanned documents to SAP FI documentsI.
Can anyone provide the config steps required for this to work? I have read several PDF documents that I downloaded from the Internet, and followed the steps, but I have not been able to get the system to work.
Thank you,
Hakiza

hi.
i think i understand - if you write third-party-server you really mean that? This is not a server with an installed archiving solution like filenet, commonstore or sap content server.
do you want to access the files on systemlevel?
For archive link communication there are several ways to communicate with the external archive. normally rfc or http is used. for using http you have to enter a server, a port and a script who handles the requests. On the other hand you can store your documents in the sap database (OAC0 / storage type). i think that is not a good idea.
in every case you need to link the (external) documents to the sap documents. e.g. commonstore has an archiving client, filenet scans directly into a filenet repository...
do you have a content server? maybe you should setup one - sap content server sounds good, but i don't know anything about that. we do not use it (filenet, commonstore).

martin

Activate workflow on archivelink

Hi
I would like to archive curriculum with archivelink. I use the type document :HRIRESUME.
Now with OAWD I see my settings and archive my documents.
I'm trying to activate a workflow on this category but I have some problem.
For first I don't understand If It is necessary execute both settings in spro in particulary:
"Call document type Customizing Wizard" in this step the system ask me the doc Type I put HRIRESUME then a document type template I put the same , I flag Workflow document type then the system proposed me object type PREL method Create Task TS30001117 for create and assigment but If I continue the system gives me a warning :
Method CREATE for object type PREL
suitable, since it is instance-dep. !!!
So I see the B:O PREL but no method with independent istance exists and so I don't know which I put.
I don't understand as the workflow triggers infact we have only task ( TS30001117).
I tried to execute the settings about
Call Workflow Wizard .
I create automatically a workflow without event but really I don't know which
Object type
Method and event insert
Also even in the parameter for method
Somebody Could I helpm me?
Best regards
Vanessa

You need to use a Criteria workflow and not a basic workflow.
Create a new criteria workflow in the Workflow Admin Applet
Choose the criteria - for the purposes of the test choose a security group, tick the criteria definition checkbox and then specify the criteria.
For example you could setup criteria of Public security group and Content Type matches 'Document'
Add the steps / users to your workflow
Then you need to enable the workflow.
Every time you now check in a 'Document' in the Public security group it will go into this workflow

ArchiveLink with SAP HTTP Content Server configuration using SAPdb MaxDB

We have configured SAP 4.7 to use ArchiveLink to store outgoing POs. The POs are in PDF format and are to be stored on an SAP HTTP content server using MaxDB. We believe everything is setup but when we go to retrieve a stored file, using and HTTP link we do not see the document. Here is a sample HTTP link:
http://company-sap20.company200-sap.com:1090//ContentServer/ContentServer.dll?get&pVersion=0046&contRep=ZT&docId=47E9C60A28145211E10000000A0126F3
Can anybody give me a few pointers?
What table in the MaxDB shall I look at? Where is the docID being passed to?

I'm sorry to say that I don't know.
AFAIK, the report gets documents from the document store. The Contentserver itself runs embedded in the Web-Server.
Besides the trial to write a trace file with the Contentserver (see Contentserver.ini somewhere on your Web-Server) I strongly recommend to open a customer message.

How can I setup a mail-specific passcode/restriction on iPad used by multiple family members?

How can I setup a mail-specific passcode/restriction on iPad used by multiple family members?
Have an Exchange mail account setup and accessible in my mail on iPad... however my kids use it and i would like to restrict them from accessing this specific portion of the device. I tried viewing restriction options and do not see that i can apply a restriction specifically to Mail. Thanks for your help.

Not a feature of iOS. Check the AppStore to see if there are other
mail apps that allow passcode protection.
Or use Safari to log onto your email via a web-based interface and
enter your credentials each time. A bit slower, but the kids will
not know the details to login.

New setup questions...

Hey Guys,
I'm moving to a new condo on 9/1 and getting Fios (switching from cable) for the first time. In the proverbial nutshell, what I want to do is this: run two HD TiVos (with cablecards), plus my Apple Time Capsule as my primary router. I don't care a bit about VOD or Verizon's channel guides, email, or any other silly thing they provide. An ISP is (or ought to be) just a 'dumb pipe'.
Having done some research online today, it seems as though I need to have my ONT set up to run Ethernet, not MOCA (coax). Is there anything else I've missed that I need to know?
Thanks! Any suggestions greatly appreciated... :-)
Regards,
Ken

You would want to have a CAT5 Cable run from the location where the ONT will be to where your Apple Router will be locatated.
Allow the FIOS Technician to install their Router and get everything up and running. Since you are not planning on using the Verizon Router the location should not mater. I would just have a CAT5 Patch cable available and ask them to use it to make the data conenction from the ONT to the Verizon Router.
Once the technician is done you can release the TCP/IP Address from teh Verizon Router, Power Down, Swap in your Router, and hopefully be all setup. Here is a FAQ with more information on using different routers:

I am trying to setup VPN with QuickVPN

Hi I am trying to setup VPN with WRVS4400N and Quick VPN on client side. I am fairly new to VPN and did some research and looked through the manual but can't seem to get it to work so far and from what I noticed many people are having this problem. So hopefully someone can tell what the problem is or at least point to right direction on solving this.
Basically it gives the "Failed to establish connection" generic error, shows it almost instantly..
It also showed the certificate error before but then I read about putting it in the installation directory and it stopped showing it, and whats strange is later I removed it but it doesnt show the error any longer, so don't know if its caching it somewhere or what can be going on...
In effort to look for answer and test things out I tried to connect to another location and setup a WRV200 router, I also get the same error but not instantly, it even shows "Activating Policy" but then doesn't go farther and shows the generic error...
Also with this setup strangly it always shows the certificate error, no matter if I put one in directory or not... Even tried to name it as the WRVS4400N certificate name...
Anyway VPN IPSec is disabled, and Client Accounts are configured and changed password several times to make sure its correct, VPN Passthrough enabled on all 3 options.
I tried to disable Windows Router, I also have a router in place do I possibly need to open some type of ports for the QuickVPN client?
Don't know yet whats going on if I am missing something or if there is some problem that needs work-around but if you know the answer or guesses of answer please let me know.

Hi Aleksandr,

Add management server: Setup version: 7.0.9538.0 is not compatible with database version: 7.1.10226.0

I want to add another management server to our existing SCOM environment. But whenever I run this setup on a new server I get stuck in the window for selecting the OperationsManager database. The database field stays blank and in the OpsMgrSetupWizard log
there are lines that the setup version is not compatible with the database version. But I use the same installer as when I installed the other management servers a year ago.
Maybe there is a newer setup installer? But I can't find it.

Can we setup two sets different 7912 logos in one CCM cluster?

Hi,
CCM 4.1(3) cluster within head office. We created the 7912 logo for system default image. However, the remote site 7912 phones, need to use a different logo other than the head office.
as per http://forum.cisco.com/eforum/servlet/NetProf?page=netprof&forum=Unified%20Communications%20and%20Video&topic=IP%20Telephony&CommCmd=MB%3Fcmd%3Dpass_through%26location%3Doutline%40%5E1%40%40.1ddc5d3d/0#selected_message
We can create the 7912 logo, but how can we setup two or more different 7912 logos for different sites?
We noticed on CCM4.1(3), there is idle URL for 7912 phone, what is the callmanager default link for this URL? I am thinking to use different logo file names, and put the related URL on this parameters for remote site 7912 phones.
Could someone let me know or any other better way to do?
Thanks,
JJ

Hi JJ,
This should work just the way you have described. Have a look;
Idle
Enter the URL that displays on the Cisco IP Phone display when the phone has not been used for the time that is specified in Idle Timer field. For example, you can display a logo on the LCD when the phone has not been used for 5 minutes.
Leave this field blank to accept the default setting.
Idle Timer (seconds)
Enter the time (in seconds) that you want to elapse before the URL that is specified in the Idle field displays.
Leave this field blank to accept the value of the Idle URL Timer enterprise parameter.
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/sw/voicesw/ps556/products_administration_guide_chapter09186a00801ecfc7.html#1121361
Here how on CCM;
Method 1:
Choose System > Enterprise Parameters so that the change is propagated to all of the phones from the Cisco CallManager Administration page.
In the URL Idle field, enter http://IP_address_of_CallManager/CCMCIP/filename.xml.
In the URL Idle Time field, enter any positive value in seconds.
Method 2:
Choose Device > Phone under the Cisco IP Phone configuration so that only this phone displays the graphics from the Cisco CallManager Administrator page.
Choose the phone/phones on which you want to put the display.
In the Idle field, enter the path http://IP_address_of_CallManager/CCMCIP/filename.xml.
In the Idle Timer field, enter any positive value in seconds.
From this good doc;
