Can Archive Link be used to store the docs from SAP R/3 to KM Repository

Hi All,
Could you please advice whether archive link can be used to store documents from SAP R/3 enviroment to KM Repository. I have verified the storage types that archive link can support (Like HTTP Content Server) . But i couldn't see any storage type out there which is compatible with KM Content storage.
If it is not possible, Could you please advice is there any way to store the documents from SAP R/3 environment to KM Repository.
Thanks,
Sudheer.

Hi Vivek,
until now I haven't found a solution in detail, but some ways to verify the connection.
I wrote about a tool that export the pdf to the filesystem, this wont be able at this time, it must developed, because a function will place the data in a sap table and from this point there we can export it on the filesystem after we've develop some abap code.
I thought that was already available, but that what i found was the Report RSTXPDFT4 in the sap system, with this you can transfer spool to pdf and store the file in dialog on a filesystem, there will webdav be able to use, but it must be batch.
So I search to a new way, I try to set the repository for rooms from persitence from db to fsdb, this works, but with our patch sp9 there are some errors, so i must patch it to sp 15/16 first.
I'm able to make the netshare on windows, so the repository is reachable with an unc Path. If the report, that must be written can access such unc path (normaly thats works in the same domain) we can store the Files in the room workspace document folder an the portal synch job can make the rest. >IN the sap system there must be a table to map the rooms to the responsable folder.
This way should be work, but it isn't fine for productive, I heard from a way to transfer the data with java. In CRm System there should be a fnction from sap CRM_ISA_ORDER_CONVERT_TO_PDF and the isa use the java-stream to transform it in pdf, but this is nothing for me, that must be checked from a java developer, a colleague of my will check this.
Best regards

Archive link : user defined document name in attachment list

Hi
I have created a content repository (OAC0), document type and had linked the doc n content rep with an SAP business object.
I am able to attach documents to business object using archive link feature.
If I attach more than one documents to an SAP business object, for same document type, all the documents are displayed with same name in the attachment list.
Is there any way by which I can show the original document name as selected by user?
Thanks in advance.

Queries related to DMS and Archive link

Hi Experts,
1. Is it possible to link documents in MIGO or FB03 through Archive link with documents already stored via OAWD or CV01N.
2. Can we use any single transaction code for reporting purpose where we can find all the documents stored via DMS and Archive link.
Kind Regards,
Vikas

Hi,
Christoph already answered that question in regard to document info records.
Regarding documents from OAWD, your question is a bit surprising. The main idea of OAWD is to trigger a workflow for linking an external document to a SAP object (document in FB03 or whatever). This is done via ArchiveLink, so all documents linked via OAWD will appear in transactions like MIGO or FB03. Once more, please refer to the documentation:
[Storage Scenarios with Integration of SAP Business Workflow|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw73/helpdata/en/4c/f3ee755e21458ae10000000a42189b/frameset.htm]

Problem viewing .xlsx and .xlsm file in DMS using Display from Archive Link

Hello All,
We are using IXOS as a content server for storing the documents through SAP Archive Link.
We are not storing any documents in SAP DMS.
The client has an requirement to manage .xlsx and .xlsm documents.
1. xlsx - We defined a new document class xlsx under SAP NetWeaver ..-> ArchvieLink and made the required mime and sheet settings. This allows to upload a .xlsx file to IXOS server succesfully (using Check in Archive) link.
But whenever we try to view the file using "Display from Archive", the browser gives a warning message that the file is in different format than xls. Do you want to still open (Standard Excel application message). On clicking yes, the file opens in .xls format instead of .xlsx.
The client doesn't want to change the format to .xls. What can be done to preserve the .xlsx files.
2. xlsm - Any clue as to does SAP ECC 6.0 support this file type for DMS? And if how the config settings are to be done?
I will be grateful any help.
Thanks.
Ketki

Hi Ketki,
based on your description I think that maybe SAP note 1289314 could help here and made sure that the local copy also has extension XLSX or XLSM.
Best regards,
Christoph

Mass upload of documents through SAP Archive Link

Hi Experts,
Our client is having a requirement, to upload legacy (old) data from third party tool to DMS Content server through Archive link. Tool is implemented and it works fine for attaching individual document along with SAP Object like, Purchase Order, material, etc.
We dont have any idea as how to upload bulk of drawings for material, need your advice on this.
Regards,

Hi,
I am trying to get more info on how to bulk upload employee documentation through SAP Archive Link' OpenText Enterprise Scan into the categories in OAWD. Once the documents are in Enterprise Scan the Administrator needs to link these to the categories in SAP. This is a manual process - is there a way to bulk upload these documentation to the right categories? Since these documents vary I am not sure that OCR will be a help.
Pleae could you help in this regard.
Thank you.

Archive Link Authorization problem for Business Partner.

Hi Experts,
Currently we are attaching documents to respective objects through Tr. OAWD & these documents are available in service for object as attachment, until this it is working fine.
But we are facing problem of authorization for archive link of ISU- Business Partner. Letu2019s say we had two users USER-A & USER-B responsible to upload documents of Business partners started with 1 & 2 respectively.
We needed authorization control for USER A&B so that,
USER-A should upload documents for Business Partner 1001 to 1999
& USER-B should upload documents for Business Partner 2001 to 2999
we need to know can we restrict USER A&B so that they can not upload documents for Business Partner for which they are not responsible. we allready checked the roles "SAP_BC_SRV_ARL_* " but not found useful to restrict USER A&B.
Thanks in advance....

Hi Sam,
as this sounds like you search for suitable authorization objects I think that the authorization trace in transaction ST01 could be useful for you. For further information please see the following link: http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/PLM/AuthorizationTraceintransactionST01

Archive Link Documents

Hi Experts ,
I am currently working on the Web UI component GS_CM . The requirement is to display the name , description and the created by fields entered by the user during the upload process correctly on the web UI. The user would click the advanced button and then click the attachment button in the advanced assignment block to upload documents. These documents are added as archive link documents. In the current state only the extension name ( E.g. xls ) is displayed. The data entered by the user is being populated correctly but I am not able to figure out where the attributes are being set and where wrong information is being picked up . Could anyone with experience in attachments and who has worked with the component GS_CM please help me out? Could this be a standard issue? Any reference to SAP notes would be really helpful.
Also is there an API that would fetch the information directly from the database?
Thanks.
P.S: These attached documents are added within a single folder within the Archive link folder. Hence the view for the advanced assignment block has a context node with a tree structure. It is this mode which holds the name , description and the user name.

I assume you have read http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-27791 ?
First you must have Services for Objects enabled. Then you will need further enhancement to "Store Business Documents" if yo are truly using "archivelink" documents. If you use create attachment you will just be writting to the SOFFCONT1 table in SAP.
You are spamming all the old threads on this site. This is considered very bad form.
Please be more specific in what you have attempted to implement and you are more likely to get truly helpful answers.

Archive Link and external URL Link

Hi,
we use Archive Link, NO own documents (like CV01N,..). We want to define different document types (oac2) and link them to via url to an external webserver, the user should see the doc in the normal attachment list.
Doc Typ    url
DOC1        http://www.xsfd.wer/show?...
DOC2        http://www.ssdfs.ver/show?
In oac0 (definition content rep) there is an subtyp called "URL", looks like it could be this kind of rep? All solutions and hints I found where based on DMS/KPRO not ArchiveLink. I don't want to use link to external Document via GOS.
Regards,
Christian

Dear all,
no, I found no solution to access automatically! And I was not able to find a definition of the "URL" Repository.

Archive Link problem with redundant document names

Hi all,
I have a tricky problem in archive link. I would like to attach some different documents to an HR/PD Organisation unit ( objekttyp pdotype_o )
All customizing works fine but the problem is, all documents attached to one busines object ID have the same name ( in this case objectnumber.pdf)
I am not lucky with this issue because the users must be able to see all documents ( via document finder ) attached to the org. unit and all what the users get, is a list of one or more documents with exactly the same name.
In some cases this are about 10 different documents and this issue is a very bad solution because users have to open all attached docs to recognize which one they need.
During the import/check in of the documents via transaction OAAD and OAWD, SAP renames the original document name.pdf into the related object ID.pdf and there is no way to rerename it or influence this process.
I tried to use some scan software with SAP interface but unfort. with the same result because software of this kind use the archive link interface too and cannot influence the process of check in and rename.
Has anybody an idea ( third party software, customer development or something like this ) to prevent this problem and give me the possibility to stay with the original document names or change it after check in?
Thank you in advance
Rayko

How you fix this problem?
I'm with the same problem. Could you help me please?

Attachment list in ME23N using SAP Archive link not working

Hello Everyone,
We are using Documentum as our document management system and have linked it to SAP through Archive link to link scanned Invoices against purchase orders.
After we run a query to link a PDF document to a purchase order in Documentum and then Login to ECC and tcode "ME23" and display the purchase order->Environment->Display Originals the document attached to the purchase order is getting displayed in Document viewer. But we want to display the document in "ME23N" and also against the Invoice document in "MIR4".
Can anyone please help me in finding a way to display the document in ME23N. I would greatly appreciate your help.
Regards,
Gopal.

Do a search. There are plenty of posts which cover the configuration of DMS and ArchiveLink as separate issues. Its not something you could add as a single post, its an entire module in itself.
On the issue of versioning, some products do support versioning with ArchiveLink but TRIM is not one of them. To get versioning on TRIM, you would need to use SAP DMS using TRIM as a repository. Open Text supports ArchiveLink with versioning with a product called Extended ECM which is designed to give similar functionality to SAP DMS but driven from the Open Text product as opposed to the SAP DMS. I.e. you create documents and publish them to SAP rather than creating them in SAP and storing them in the 3rd party content server.

How to extract attachment from ABAP proxy and store in archive link....

Hi Experts,
I need to consume an incoming email attachment in the ABAP Proxy program (POP Mail --> PI --> ABAP Proxy) and then store this file in the IBM content management server through the Archvie Link connection.
Any idea how to implement this piece of code in ABAP?
Regards,
Shobhit

Hi Shobhit
You can get the files from Sender Mail adapter. In proxy implement the method of protocol IF_WSPROTOCOL_ATTACHMENTS as said above.
Archive Link supports HTTP, RFC etc depends on the system you are going to use for archiving. For your case you have IBM server i think you have to do HTTP synchronous. This will be like an interface again for you.
Why are you using ERP system in middle. I think you can directly dump data to IBM server.
Thanks
Gaurav

Content Server / Content Repository / Archive Link and co.

Hi,
i have installed a content server on an external Windows 2003 Server Plattform using MAXDB. The Server is now running and working properly. The test of the content repositories were positive too. Now im a bit confused about all the actions which are required to make a content rep known to SAP System via Archive Link. Is it correct to start the content server service in the SCIF transaction? Do i need to perform the Archive Link Workflow and Costumizing wizard. Which tables have to be altered?
I would be very greatful if anyone could tell me the steps which need to be done in order to succeed.
Thanks in advance Christian

Hi,
Is it correct to start the content server service in the SCIF transaction?
Not required
the actions which are required to make a content rep known to SAP System via Archive Link.
Create a content repository in OAC0 using document area Archivelink and storage type HTTP Content Server.
To use full functionality of Archlink, other set of Archivelink configurations required one of them e.g.OAC3 to use this repository to be used by business objects.
