ArchiveLink Objects/Extractor ?

Hi Experts,
Are there any extractors or Info-objects that correspond to ArchiveLink information like ArchiveID , Arch_Doc_ID or is there a method to retrieve URL to the content server. The underlying table is TOA01.
Does anyone have any documents or information on ArchiveLink with respect to BW with an external storage system being used to store the documents.
Please suggest
Thanks
Sarah

Hi there
I have the same requirement as well. Could you provide me with some information on how you resolved this?
Thanks!

ArchiveLink object (not DMS) for KB23N (Display Direct Activity Allocation)

Does anyone know the ArchiveLink object for KB23N for linking ArchiveLink (Scanned not SAP DMS) documents?
I can't seem to find a standard object in the object list so I thought I'd check here before attempt to create a custom ArchiveLink object for this area. There are a couple with similar names but configuring them doesn't enable the store business document option.

Hi Athol,
We have observed that for MIGO transaction,the 'Store Business Document' option is disabled.Could you please let know how this can be enabled? We have serarched the forums,no inputs.Also,there is no indicator from the configuration side as well.

Archivelink object / mail

Hi all,
how can I add documents which are linked to a business transaction (archivelink) to an automatically generated e-mail?
In transactions one can add all sorts of documents in the documents tab. In certain cases, when saving the transaction an e-mail is generated automatically (action profile). I want to add these documents to the e-mail.
Is there a way of achieving this?
Kind regards,
Micky.

How to find out URL for ArchiveLink objects?

Hi All,
SCENARIO:
I'm working on "Archive Link", where a document (like word, JPEG photo, etc) is stored on a "Content Server" (specially meant for Database Management System) through a txn code(OAWD).
This is successfully storing the document on the content server.We have 2 options to view this stored document:
1) Use Document Viewer and
2) Use Internet Explorer
By default, system will open this document in Document Viewer. But, we changed it to view in Internet Explorer. It is also showing the document in IE along with a complete URL (system generated), which has details like domain, document ID and so on.
We want to find out where that URL is getting stored in the system (R/3).
Hope somebody would reply to this question.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
You will have to use the function module 'ARCHIV_CONNECTION_INSERT' to acheive this functionality. While creating the transaction you will have to do this inorder for the attachment to be available. The following code might be of help to you:

Hi,
For any transportation visibility process in TM 8.1, I need to identify various extractors like control, info parameter, tracking ID etc so that AOT can be designed. From technical perspective what are the various enhancement that is required from AOT design perspective like enhancements in code for parameters, business object extractor etc.

Hi,
I actually want to know in details the various extractions functions performed by various extractors.This will help me a lot like understanding control/info/parameters/tracking ID extractors etc.

Data extraction from SAP r/3 to sql 2000, bpc server

Hi All,
I have posted a similar thread previously,sap r/3 to sql 2000/2005, and understood how to transfer data from SAP R/3 to SQL 2005, but I need to transfer data from SAP R/3 to SQL 2000 server, not SQL 2005 server.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Kranthi.

If you want to extract SAP R/3 data to SQL 2000, here are some alternatives:
1. It becomes very easy if by any chance, you are using SAP BW with SAP R/3. You can extract the data into BW using standard or custom extractors and then send it out with open hub. SQL2000 can pick the flat files from a specified location at regular intervals.
2. You can use Business Object extractors. You can get more info at:
http://www.france.businessobjects.com/pdf/products/dataintegration/rapid_marts_sap_infosheet.pdf
3. If that is not an option, then you need to have a tool that allows being called via RFC. This agent will then execute the required command on behalf of your application and return the result. I do not know if there is a ready-to-use RFC-compliant agent for SQL Server. If you have a tool that does it for you, you might have to check your network connections (ping), permissions etc. and see if you can execute an rSQL from the remote machine on the SQL server.
There is a general solution to connect to nearly any kind of modern server application from a remote site by using simple HTTP requests. Suitable HTTP server for most needs would be:
1. Microsoft IIS
2. Java Tomcat or IBM WebSphere
3. SAP WebAS
In most cases, the IIS would probably be the one as it is installed on the Windows 2000 server anyway.
Define an Active Server Page (ASP.NET) and insert the necessary code in your favorite language to extract the data from the SQL server.
Your ASP.NET page would pack the result in the HTTP response object to be returned. In order to call the page from SAP you call the function modules HTTP_POST (using a HTTP POST request) or HTTP_GET (for HTTP GET request) on the standard RFC destination SAPHTTPA. (Pointing to a SAP utility program saphttp that resides in the SAP binary directory of your SAP database server and can be called from the command line in order to test its functionality without RFC).

Output type - Special function 8 - ARCHIV_CONNECTION_INSERT

Hi gurus,
I created a new Output Type with special function 8 called ZPDF in transaction NACE with application MR (invoice verification) and I added to that Output Type ZPDF our custom program called ZXXX_ARCHIVE_LINK in order to post into the MM invoice, a PDF who cames from the SD inovoice.
The SD invoice number is recorder into the field "Referece" in the MM invoice.
So, the program should (through the output type and the program):
1. Read the MM invoice number generated (NAST table into NAST-OBJKY).
2. Enter to table RBKP with MM invoice number RBKP-BELNR and get the SD invoice number: RBKP-XBLNR.
3. Enter with SD invoice number XBLNR to table TOA01-OBJECT_ID And get TOA01-ARC_DOC_ID.
4. Call FM ARCHIV_CONNECTION_INSERT.
The problem here is when I post a MM inovice in MIRO transaction the system through the condition record added the ZPDF Output Type but don´t read the program ZMIC_INVOICE_PDF_ARCHIVE_LINK added to that output type. The status of the output type is green (but without any processing log). I checked the setting for the Output Type like 100 times and everything seems to be OK.
Please this is very urgent. Any advice?
I don´t know why SAP don´t call the program. I think the ABAP code is wrong:

Hi,
Use
You can process a message immediately by updating the application document or you can process it at a later time. For later processing you must use the report program RSNAST00 or a corresponding application function.
The individual possibilites are:
Time 1: The message is processed through report program RSNAST00. This report program can be scheduled periodically or started manually.
Time 2: As in time 1, but the message contains an earliest processing date and a requested processing time. The message is ignored by report program RSNAST00 before the requested date.
Time 3: The message is selected and processed by application specific programs. Processing can take place online or in the background.
Time 4: The message is processed when the application document is saved. No further processing of the message is necessary.

PDFs not created using Acrobat fail to read in PB20 short profile

In our ECC system, when trying to read an applicant resume in PB20 (Short Profile->ArchiveLink Object Hit List), we get an error when trying to load someone's resume in which the resume that is saved as a PDF but created in something other than Acrobat (Example: MS Word-->Save as PDF):
In SDV--> "The file is damaged and could not be repaired"
Can anyone offer any suggestions as how to fix this?

Well, I tried a quick test of the Save As Excel and also Word and the conversion replaces hyphens with bullets; -$20,083.86 becomes •$20,083.86 and 18-JUN-2013 becomes 18•JUN•2013
I can work with this if I have to, but it certainly is a cludgy approach.
Do you happen to know if there's a routine in the VB-accessible SDK that allows me to fetch a block of text without any parsing by the SDK? That is, if I could read the contents of the PDF as a stream of characters and do my own parsing, perhaps I could see the hyphens.

ok, if you set for your output type NAST-VSZTP=3 you can add code in your print program to display popup window in which
user specify own path for storing PDF...
but if output type will be created in background ( VSZTP ne 3) then
you must save PDF in server path...and user may download it by
cg3y...

Business Partner extract from R/3 (or SRM) to MDM without XI

Dear SAP Experts,
do you have any solution for extraction of Business Partner data from R/3 (or SRM) to MDM without XI? I know transaction mdmgx and the reference data went to the MDM well. How can I do the same for master data without XI? Please write me a step-by-step solution, if you can, because we haven't got too much time, to solve this issue.
Thanks a lot!
Best regards,
Ádá

Hi Adam,
there are different reasons for this:
1. MDMGX selects data directly from tables. Customizing tables are very simple tables, thus it was possible to implement a direct access. Master data itself is stored in distributed, multiple tables. It's not this easy to extract the data, thus MDM_CLNT_EXTR is using special extractors for the master data objects. Those object extractors are delivered by the object owners, not by the MDM group.
2. ALE IDoc and Proxy messages are the common way for data exchange between SAP systems. There are predefined IDoc and XML message types for master data. This was not the case for customizing data, so we decided to use FTP for MDMGX just as an exception.
3. The MDM data model for business partners has to combine different data models: R/3's customer and vendor with CRM's/SRM's business partner. Those models have to be combined to a general MDM Business Partner model. This requires a structural and value mapping of the different structures. Currently this is done on XI using a XSLT Message transformation.

Generic Object Services (GOS) + ArchiveLink against IXOS.

Hi all,
I'm currently working on a project where I'm supposed to extend the Generic Object Services (GOS) Icon with a menu item for storing documents down to IXOS through ArchiveLink, and a functionality for retrieving them / attaching them to an email.
So far, I concluded that I need to create a class, whose superclass is CL_GOS_SERVICE, and at least override the EXECUTE() method with some functionality.
The ARCHIVOBJECT function group contains some (probably)
useful function modules - like ARCHIVOBJECT_CREATE_FILE and ARCHIVOBJECT_GET_BYTES / ARCHIVOBJECT_GET_TABLE.
My problem so far is that I don't see the "connection",
ARCHIVOBJECT_CREATE_FILE takes ARCHIV_ID, DOCUMENT_TYPE
and PATH as arguments (parameters), and returns ARCHIV_DOC_ID - an unique ID to the stored document
But how is the link between the archived document and the business object (i.e. the current object of the transaction I'm in) maintained?
Thanks in advance,
regards,
Lars Wilhelmsen

Hi again,
Thanks for the answers, they were very helpful,
but the customer isn't happy with the "Store business Documents" and it's Drag n' drop interface.
I'm to develop a new GOS menu item, that will show
a normal Open File dialog, and a following popup
where the user can change the document title shown
in the Attachment list.
ARCHIVOBJECT_CREATE_FILE and ARCHIVOBJECT_GET_TABLE
along with ARCHIV_CONNECTION_INSERT should probably
cover the functionality I need.
I know both the BOR type ID and the object ID is
available to me in the Execute() method of the GOS menu handler I'm overriding, but for the ARCHIV_CONNECTION_INSERT, I'm supposed to supply an AR_OBJECT parameter (I know that this information is stored in the TOAOM table), but I have no clue where to get this information for the current object I'm trying to add an attachment for.
Regards,
Lars Wilhelmsen
