SAP - Document Management System

Hi,
I am looking for insights for implementing SAP Document Management System.
DMS can be used to store pictorial depiction of products, product specifications, drawings, instruction sheets for assembling etc.
I would be specifically interested in the following:
(a) Hardware sizing / landscape
(b) SAP DMS installation requirements
(c) DMS configuration template
(d) approach plan at a broad level
(e) integration with material master, sales order, production order etc.
(f) upload and retrieval of documents
If you have worked in any implementation project with SAP DMS, it would be nice if you can share your expertise on the above.
Thanks a lot in advance.
with regards,
Pinaki

    - Create document info record and attach original drawings to this info record
    - Link this document info record to the concerned material object by Access a material master record in Create or Change mode, and select Basic Data. 
    To create links to documents, choose Additional data -> Document data. And in the dialog box appears provide document details.
    If this approach is fine then can you please suggest suitable BAPIs/RFM which does the above specified job.
    Waiting eagerly for responses.

  • Interface between SAP and Document management system

    Hi,
    I have a requirement to interface SAP 4.7 with a Document management system(Fakta).A  vendor invoice will be created in SAP using FB60 transaction.The vendor invoice(in paper form) will be scanned by the Fakta digital document system.The Fakta system will handle the approval process for the vendor invoice and update the status of invoice in SAP as APPROVED.
        My requirement is when an SAP user wants to see the scanned invoice stored in the fakta system,he should be able to view it from SAP preferably from FB60 or the document overview for the invoice in SAP.What is the best way to do this.
    I found one option of using RSDEMO_HTML_VIEWER which may not be useful as we think.Is there a better option available?
    Please share your experience.
    Thanks in millions,
    Leo

    Hi
    I'm sorry but I've never worked on this problem, but I think the better solution should be use SAP Archivelink, I know It should do what you want.

    Hi,
    Customizing settings can be collected by processes into Business Configuration Sets (BC Sets). BC Sets make Customizing more transparent by documenting and analyzing the Customizing settings. They can also be used for a group rollout, where the customizing settings are bundled by the group headquarters and passed on in a structured way to its subsidiaries.
    BC Sets are provided by SAP for selected industry sectors, and customers can also create their own.
    When a BC Set is created, values and combinations of values are copied from the original Customizing tables into the BC Set and can be copied into in the tables, views and view clusters in the customer system. The BC Sets are always transported into the customer system in which Customizing is performed.
    Advantages of using BC Sets:
    1.     Efficient group rollout.
    2.     Industry sector systems are easier to create and maintain.
    3.     Customizing can be performed at a business level.
    4.     Change Management is quicker and safer.
    5.     Upgrade is simpler.
    To create BC sets follow the below step:
    Choose Tools ® Customizing ® Business Configuration Sets® Maintenance in the SAP
    menu, or enter the transaction code SCPR3 in the command field.
    Choose Bus.Conf.Set ® Create.

  • How to install EASY DMS (Document Management System) setup in windows 7

    Dear Experts,
    Recently we have started a project to establish document management system in SAP. So, i have downloaded easydms7.1sp04 from the servicemarketplace service.sap.com/swdc and setup is successfully installed in windows Xp and unable to install successfully in windows 7.
    The SAP is upgraded in our company to release ERP6 EHP6.
    In windows Xp the DMS is accessing to all the systems in the landscape( DEV, QAS, PRD).
    But, In windows 7 it is only accessing the production system and if creating manually the systems prompting the error about RFC and hosts in windows 7.

    Hi Sir,
    As mentioned earlier it is prompting me the error
    Logon Failed (RFC_ERROR_LOGON_FAILURE)
    Name or Password is incorrect (repeat logon)
    But it is accessing only the production system in windows 7 but not all the 3 systems which are in landscape. I dont know how can it proceed to logon to the production system only with out other systems .
    Thanks in advance

    hi
    try with this
    SAP DMS - Document Management System
    SAP DMS are for storing documents such as CAD drawings, Materials pictures etc.
    With the document management system, users will be able to view the documents with ease within their SAP systems.
    Installing the SAP DMS requires a little bit of planning on how you want to do it.
    You have to give a little thoughts to stuff such as :-
    1.  The total numbers of documents that will be store monthly.
    2.  The average file size of each documents.
    3.  The capacity of your present R/3 system.
    4.  Your present network bandwidth.
    5.   Document Archiving Strategy.
    6.   Backup and Recovery Plan.
    Additional purchasing of hardware are required, especially if you have large amount of documents to stored.
    With this in mind, you can then decide on how you want to do it.
    You can do this in a few ways :-
    1.  Import the documents into the R/3 system.
    2.  Use an external document server.
    3.  Have a dedicated PCs where all the documents are stored.
    Most companies that intend to used DMS will opt for Option 2 as they does not want to overstretch the R/3 database.
    Options 1 requires you to setup the conversion interface. 
    The conversion interface allows R/3 to automatically covert your files and import it into the R/3 database.
    Here is a simple example of storing documents into your PCs, just to have a feel how the SAP DMS works:-
    For those using Citrix, you have to set this at the Citrix Server where the SAPGUI is located.
    Configure SM30 - V_TDWE_C1
    Put this command in your autoexec.bat
    SET HOSTNAME=PC1234
    Restart your pc.
    You can create/manage your documents in transaction code CV01N / CV02N
    Assigning Documents to a Material Master Record
    Access a material master record in Create or Change mode, and select Basic Data. 
    To create links to documents, choose Additional data -> Document data.
    The Link to Documents dialog box appears.
    Assign one or more documents to the material. 
    If you do not know what the document number is, you can search for it using the search help or by choosing Find document.
    When assigning a document to a material, you have the following options:
    1. Viewing the document by choosing it in the Link to Documents dialog box.
    2. Viewing any originals of the document by positioning the cursor on the document and 
       choosing Display originals in the Link to Documents dialog box.
    To return to the Basic Data screen, choose Continue.
    Save your data. 
    all the best

  • Document Management System in KM

    hi experts,
    can anyone share few points on Document Management System life cycle.
    can anybody give me steps for DMLC
    thank you,
    vijai

    hello Vijay,
    Although there are no set guidelines given by SAP.You can think on these lines.
    1)All work in progress documents are managed in collaboration room and most of the users who work  on these documents within a group are its members.
    2)Set up certain guidelines/principles on these documents once finished/finalised. The room owners migrates the documents into appropriate folders in KM.
    3)If the documents(once moved) then requires a Approval set up approval process.
    4)Documents moved into km are tagged with attributes.
    5)Documents once approved give the end users feedback and ratings option to complete a lifecycle.
    6)Lastly you would like to set up templates in collaboration room to maintain consistency.
    7)Enable Enterprise search only on documents in KM as collaboration room documents are work in progress.
    8)Enable versioning on word documents/xls sheets
    hope this helps
