Attaching a pc file to workflow

i want to attach a microsoft doc (excel, word) to a work item in workflow. How to do that? How to use SOFM object type for this or some other method.
Thanks in Advance,
Yoga

Hi,
Create a custom event which triggers your workflow.
Have export parameters for the event, add an attribute of type SOFM object type.
fill the contents of this with the attachment of yours.
Make sure that you have set the attach_objects in the workflow container as import.
Do the binding in the triggering of the workflow.
there you go with the solution.

How to get the Attachment of a pdf file throug workflow,...

Hi,
I have attached pdf the file to the ESS and written the code in webdynrpo. How can I get the file attachment in MSS through Workflow? This attachment should be displayed in the User Decision Activity. Could any one Help me on this issue....?
Thanks & Regards
Kannan

Hi,
1. From WebDynpro applicaiton once you create a PDF in the application you can get back the Xstring of PDF into the context of the workflow,
2. Now pass this xstring to workflow container. I assume you might be starting the workflow from Webdynpro application.
4. Create class method or a BOR and include a method. From that method do the respective coding that is mentioned in the document.
3. Once you have the PDF xstring in the workflow container you can attach the PDF document to user decision step as mentioned in the [document|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/index?rid=/library/uuid/60ff6ad3-729b-2b10-6582-fedc82680a29]

How to send attachment as html file in mail in workflow

Hi Experts,
I want to know how i can send an attachment as .html file by mail in sap workflow.
By default it is being sent as .txt file.
Thanks & Regards,
Kapil Kumar

Hello,
In your decision step you can put this binding (if you haven't already):
Workflow Step
&DECISIONCOMMENTS& <- &_ATTACH_OBJECTS&
where DECISIONCOMMENTS is a BOR of type SOFM.
In the next step you can use fm SO_DOCUMENT_READ_API1
to get the actual text lines.
Once you have that you can convert it to HTML (not
sure how) or you could use fm SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1
to send it as a HTML attachment.

Rick

Files and Workflow, How to Use it ?

Hi, I'm running OCS 9.0.3.1 single box under windows.
I have already integrated workflow an files, and everything is running fine.
But now, if I want to try the demo process for document management that is shipped with WF, how do I attach an Oracle Files document directly to the process (in the html form to launch the process there is a link to attach de document, but doesn't work) ? there's any configuration.
I know that there's integration developing some code under iFS, but I heard that Oracle Files it's a closed version of iFS, so there's no code dev there. Anyone has tried to use it yet ?
An example or configuration guide would be great.
Thanks a lot in advance.

It has recently emerged that Apple will provide "support for 11 other RAW formats from different cameras, including the Nikon D40, Leica Digilux 3, Panasonic Lumix DMC-L1, Samsung GX-1L, and seven of the Leaf Aptus and Valeo models."
This is from the mouth (or, actually, pen) of Joe Schorr who's heading the Aperture team. Look up his posts on this forum.
I presume that the additional support will be part of the pending System update (10.4.9) that everybody's waiting for. Dare we hope for a release tonight? After all, it's Tuesday - and usually Apple Software updates happen on a Tuesday.
Cheers,

Attach a doc file to work item

Hi,
We have scenario in which we have to attach a document file to a work item of a workflow. The workflow is triggered by a Function Module (FM). The document file to be attached is place in the file system of the R/3 system. The FM provides the file name to the workflow. Please tell us how to attach a file to a work item?
Also we are triggering the FM from an Enterprised Portal screen, so we cant use any transaction (T codes).
We are trying to implement this using an SOFM object but no success. Please give the solution in detail as Im new to workflows.
Regards,
Piyush.

Hi,
We are triggering the FM from EP screen so no transaction screen would be available.
Alternatively we have done the following:
First we have placed the document file in a folder of the application server. Then an FM reads the file using OPEN DATASET and stores it in an internal table of type binary. Now using SWL__SOFM_CREATE_WITH_TABLE we are generating a key and this key is passed to the SOFM object, which is used to generate container element for attachment. The attachment is visible in the work item but when we try to open the attachment, microsoft word giving the following error:
"the document may be corrupt or damaged. Use either the Recover Text converter or the Open and Repair feature. Both are available from the Open dialog. The Recover Text converter is in the Files of type: drop down and the Open and Repair feature is available from the Open button (select the down arrow and not the button itself)."
We assume that there is some problem while reading and converting the document file to binary and vise a versa. Is there any other way to keep it consistent and it works fine.
Regards,
Piyush.
ps: the document files are the candidate's resume.

I have a web dynpro component, with this component i am raising a request, which will go to multiple level of approvals(for this triggering workflow from web dynpro).
Now i want to send a pdf file as an attachment to approvers work items.
For this i have used File Upload UI element, and i have binded data property of this upload UI element with an attribute of type Xstring.
Now can you please help me to send this file to workflow.

HI,
Try out this code :
FileInputStream is = new FileInputStream(file);
      long length = file.length();
      byte[] bytes = new byte[(int)length];
      long bytesRead = is.read(bytes);
      if (bytesRead < length)
       throw new IOException("Could not completely read file "+file.getName());
      is.close();
element.setDocumentContent(bytes);
Create a context attribute of binary type and assign the read data to it and bind the dataSource property of your File Upload and Download properties to this context Attribute.

How can I attach a PDF file to an email I am replying to?

Hi!
How can I attach a PDF file already saved on my iPad to an existing email I am replying to from my inbox??

If you have the PDF stored on the iPhone as a separate file you obviously also have a third party app for reading it, so you should be able to e-mail it from there.
If it's on an existing e-mail, forward the e-mail and just change the contents but include the pdf

How to attach a single file in e-mail (Yosemite)?

When i am writing a new mail and i try to attach a single file that i have saved a minute ago from certain folder i cannot do that. When i click on the folder to open it and select the specific file to attach, the mail does not open the folder but automatically attach the whole folder to e-mail.
Any help?
Thanks.

Hello dejanfromzagreb,
That is interesting that it is grabbing the entire folder. Have you tried switching the view within the Finder window to Column View to select the right file to attach? Another alternative is to locate the file in Finder and drag it op top of the Email that you are preparing to attach it. Take a look at the article below.

I am unable to attach a PDF file from Documents

I am unable to access and attach a PDF file from Documents

I assume you are trying to attach a PDF to an email. I can perform this task several ways.
With a Finder window open and the PDF showing in that window, drag the PDF to the Mail app icon on the dock. This creates a new email and attaches the PDF to it. (PDFs tend to attach in inline view mode, that is you can see the entire document. To see it as a file icon right click on the PDF text and select View as Icon.)
I can drag the PDF directly into an open new email message if both the email message and the PDF file can be seen.
There's an icon on the Mail toolbar that looks like a paper clip. Click on it to get a file selector and drill down until you see the PDF. Select it and click OK.
Select Attachments from the Edit menu and choose Attach file to end of message
