Associating GOS Attachments to a KEY

Hi,
I am currently using GOS to attach an object in a current transaction. The GOS is working fine when attaching objects. My problem is... How can I relate the attached object to a KEY. For example, PO as a key, how can I associate those attachments under that PO number, so whenever I enter the PO i will get those attachments in the "Attachment list" and whenever I enter a different PO... different attachments will appear depending on the saved attachments under that PO. Am i clear with my question?
ex.
PO1 has 2 attachments associated with it, att1 and att2.
PO2 has 1 attachment associated with it, att3.
When I reenter the transaction and enter PO2, i shoul get att3 and when I enter PO1 i should get att1 and att2 in the "Attachment List."
NEED HEEELP....

I am not sure which weblog you are referring to.
the simplest way to have GOS tool bar in custom program is to call
FM
call function 'SWU_OBJECT_PUBLISH'
exporting
objtype = 'REPORT'
objkey = sy-repid
exceptions
objtype_not_found = 1
others = 2.
object type has to be a Business object (SWO1)
just do a committ work after the function call.
if you want to programatically do this you can use FM
BDS_BUSINESSDOCUMENT_CREATEF

Global Object Services (GOS) Attachments Deleted from Maintenance Task List

We use the Global Object Services (GOS) Attachments function to attach Word and Excel Documents to Maintenance Task Lists (transactions IA02, IA09). Recently we noted that more than 300+ Attachments had been deleted/removed from the GOS list visible via IA03/IA09. We are at a loss for explaining how this occurred- all Attachments appear to have been deleted at once/instantaneously. We can see the underlying tables (SGOSHIST and others) still contain entries, but we do not understand why the Attachments are no longer visible in the GOS list via Maintenance Task Lists, or how the ability to access these via GOS can be restored. This is not occurring with other PM Object Attachments - only Task Lists. Any help or suggestions appreciated.

Is it possible that there was some authorisation change in a role associated with task lists? That would be consistent with the immediate loss - but only in the task list area. Another thought - has anyone been doing any programming in the Generic Object Services Business Add-Ins (perhaps for another module?) - They might have inadvertently clobbered your use?
Do you use the GOS notes functionality? Does that still work?

Storage repository for GOS attachments outside R/3

Greetings!
For our requirement we have to extract and store GOS attachments in a DMS server.
I would like to know what are all the possible soutions to store the data outside R/3 (our users will not accessing them everytime but just to have reference when needed). I do not have much knowledge about DMS so some reference link also would be of a great use.
Please let me know if I need to eloborate on my requirement. Your help is much appreciated!
Regards,
Manoj

Hi Manoj,
You can store GOS documents in external server. Follow steps as below
1) Link content category SOFFHTTP to the repository referring to external server.
2) For SOFFPHIO class in table SDOKPHCL, maintain value X for CAT MAINT field
3) Go to the transaction skpro8, maintain SOFFHTTP as new category for SOFFPHIO class,
After making these changes, GOS documents will be stored in external server.
Refer to the below link which gives good facts about GOS. It is very informative.

Which business objects do allow searching the associated file attachments?

Hello search experts,
SAP Note 1249465 - TREX 7.1: Installing TREX for Embedded Search states:
"Embedded search enables every SAP Business Suite application to search in a unified way inside its business objects (structured data) and associated file attachments (unstructured data)."
Is there a list of business objects where the search in the associated file attachments is supported? I'm specially interested in the SAP CRM business objects. But a list for SAP ERP and the other Business Suite components would be nice too.
Best regards
Gregor

Hi Ritwik,
for the Cycle 3 of Customer Connection for SAP CRM that was started last year this idea was submitted:
Integrate documents (attachments) into CRM embedded search
https://cw.sdn.sap.com/cw/ideas/10637
unfortunately this topic spans cross multiple software components. The development was started but got stuck. In the moment the status of this request is "Handed over - Already in development planning (Handed over to Product / CEI topic owner)". So let's hope we will see a standard solution sooner or later.
Best regards
Gregor

Attach GOS attachments with a standard send mail functionality

Hi Folks,
I am here after long time and need your help.
I have a requirement where I need to attach document with a standard send mail functionality.
Below is the details:
From Quality notification 'Action Box', if the user select a perticular action (it is similar to web link), the system is sending a mail to an external mail id provided by the user (In a popup). This mail send is happening through a SAP standard functionality.
Now the requirement is, I need to attach selected file from GOS (generic Object Services) and attach them to the mail. Sending mail should happen through standard functionality.
I want to know below two points:
1) How to get selected files from GOS attachment?
2) How to attach them to mail? (only attach, sending will be done by standard functionality)
Hope I am clear with the requirement.
Please help me to get it resolved.
thanks,

Delete GOS attachments ?

Hi friends,
I will write my question in 2 posts due to the length limitation.
In my program i create different attachments like this:
CONCATENATE 'UPC' ordendpago INTO is_object-objkey
 SEPARATED BY space.
* Indicamos el tipo de objeto URL
is_object-objtype = 'FMPSO'.
rel_doc-objkey = document_id.
rel_doc-objtype = 'MESSAGE'.
* Creamos la relación entre la op y el objeto enlazado
CALL FUNCTION 'BINARY_RELATION_CREATE_COMMIT'
 EXPORTING
 obj_rolea = is_object
 obj_roleb = rel_doc
 relationtype = 'URL'
 EXCEPTIONS
 no_model = 1
 internal_error = 2
 unknown = 3
 OTHERS = 4.

At some point later, i want to delete some of these attachments created, and i do it like this:
DATA: lo_list TYPE REF TO CL_GOS_ATTACHMENT_LIST,
 lt_output TYPE TRL_BRLNK,
 ls_output TYPE SRL_BRLNK,
 lo_bor_item TYPE REF TO CL_SREL_BOR_ITEM,

 create object lo_list
 exporting
 is_object = ls_object
 IF sy-subrc <> 0.
 ENDIF.
 lt_output = lo_list->GO_LIST_VIEWER->gt_output.
* in lt_output i have all the attachments for this document
 LOOP AT lt_output INTO ls_output.
 lo_bor_browser = ls_output-objref.
 lo_bor_item ?= lo_bor_browser.
 ls_bor_obj = lo_bor_item->gs_bor_object.
 ls_folderid = ls_bor_obj-objkey(17).
 ls_objectid = ls_bor_obj-objkey+17(17).

 EXPORTING
 folder_id = ls_folderid
* FORWARDER = ' '
* F_UNREAD_DELETE = ' '
 object_id = ls_objectid
* OWNER = ' '
* PUT_IN_WASTEBASKET = 'X'
I do delete them, but my problem is that for every attachment deleted, a popup window with the attachment list is opened. Does anyone know how could I avoid that ?
Thanks

Identifying Key Owner without the Associated Key

Suppose my entity Key class implements the KeyAssociation interface to create "Data Affinity":
class MyKeyClass implements KeyAssociation {
private String key, associated;
public MyKeyClass ( String key, String associated ) ... // set fields
public String getKey() { return key; }
public String getAssociatedKey () { return associated; }
Now I wish to get the "Key Owner", but I without knowledge of the Associated Key. I.e., I at this time I only know the "main" key:
MyKeyClass keyClass = new MyKeyClass ("ABC123", null) // <-- pass null as the Associated key, because I don't know it yet!
partitionedService.getKeyOwner(keyClass);
Question - Will this work? Can Coherence provide me with the Key Owner using "ACB123" alone? Or will it try and call "getAssociatedKey()" and fail, because "null" is returned from that method.
Reasoning - I want to avoid an extra lookup. For example, my key may be {key:ABC123, associated:XYZ789}. To find "XYZ789" I have to do a lookup in a cache, which I really do not want to do.
Thanks.

Thanks.Hi,
In your example, MyKeyClass is the key for the object and the attributes {String key, String associated} must uniquely define this key. Passing "null" might it make it non-unique and also you cannot set the attributes of the objects' key later. The getAssociatedKey() leverages the attributes in your MyKeyClass to group the objects that share the same attribute. If "null" is used for the {associated} then all the keys with attribute "associated=null" will coexisit but the getAssociatedKey() call will not fail.
Re, the lookup you will use the same key as below:
MyKeyClass keyClass = new MyKeyClass ("ABC123", "XYZ789")
partitionedService.getKeyOwner(keyClass);You don't have any extra hop for this lookup as you pass the keyobject and get the owner of that key.
Hope this helps!
Cheers,
NJ

Associative Array (Object) problems

Here is the function i'm dealing with
i'm reading in a delimited string and using indexed arrays to
break them up and assign the keys and values to an associative
array in a loop.
i'm using variables in the loop and the array loads as
expected in the loop
but outside the loop, the only key is the variable name and
the value is undefined
this is true using dot or array notation, as well as literal
strings for the keys
any help is appreciated
watchSuspendData = function (id, oldval, newval):String {
//the incoming suspendData string is delimited by the
semicolon;
//newval is: firstValue=Yes;captivateKey=1
var listSuspendData:Array = newval.split(";"); // convert it
to a list of key/value pairs
if (listSuspendData.length > 0){
//line 123: listSuspendData.length is: 2
for (i=0; i < listSuspendData.length; i++){ //for each
key/value pair
var keyValArray:Array = new Array();
var myNameValue:String = listSuspendData
//line 127: listSuspendData is: firstValue=Yes
keyValArray = myNameValue.split("="); // split 'em on the
equal sign
var myKey:String = keyValArray[0];
var myVal:String = keyValArray[1];
//keyValArray[0] is: firstValue
//keyValArray[1] is: Yes
// store the key and the value in associative array
suspendDataArray.myKey = myVal;
trace("line 134: suspendDataArray is: " +
suspendDataArray.myKey);
// trace is line 134: suspendDataArray is: Yes on the first
pass and 1 on the second
//the below loop always returns one array key: myKey and the
value as undefined
for(x in suspendDataArray){
trace("x is: " + x); //x is: myKey
trace("the val is: " + suspendDataArray.x); //the val is:
undefined
} //end for
return newval;

on lines 12-13 i assign the key=value pair to string
variables
then on lines 17-18 i assign those values to the associative
array using dot notation
the trace seems to work there
the problem is that when the procedure exits the for loop,
the associative array only has one key (myKey) and no value
(undefined)
all the documentation i've read shows using these types of
arrays with either non-quoted property names like:
myAssocArray.myKey = "somevalue";
or
myAssocArray[myKey] = "somevalue";
i tried assigning the key/value pairs directly from the
indexed arrays, but the result was always undefined
like this:
suspendDataArray.keyValArray[0] = keyValArray[1]
or
suspendDataArray[keyValArray[0]] = keyValArray[1]
i even tried building a string in the loop and trying to
assign all the pairs at once using the curly brace
this is pretty wierd behavior for actionscript or i'm missing
something basic here
thanks for looking

How to retrieve attachments from a PDF?

Hi All,
how do i retrive attachments in a pdf using workbench process?
I have used a DDX file which is :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<DDX xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/DDX/1.0/">
<FileAttachments result="attachmentInfo.xml" nameKeys="*" extract="true">
<PDF source="inDoc"/>
<FilenameEncoding encoding="ISO-8859-1"/>
</FileAttachments>
</DDX>
Now i got the attachmentInfo.xml with the informartion of all the attachments.
My problem is how to actually get hold of the attachments inside the PDF.
Pls help.
Thanks
Abhiram

The trick to this is in the results that the DDX returns. When using the FileAttachments tag in a DDX the result is not just the attachments, but also an XML that describes the attachments.
http://livedocs.adobe.com/livecycle/8.2/ddxRef/000663.html
The description file (identified using the “result” attribute in the DDX) goes into a Map stored in AssemblerResult.object.documents. The extracted documents are also stored in this map.
By reading the description XML file you can tell the file name, content type and location (key) of the attachments. A simple loop is used to read the XML file, find the attachments (by the key in the Map) and write them to the file system.
