Attachment transfer from SC to PO

Question

Hi Everyone,
We have a requirement of transferring the attchments attched in SC to the PO or PR, i.e. to follow-on documents being created.
We are using SRM 7.0. Can anyone pls guide what are th steps for that. Is it a customization or we need to customize via a BADI.
I have found out  that the documents can be transferred to PO from SC using DMS. Does anyone have a guide or document that can help me to configure the steps for the same???
Pls help.
Thanks & Regards,
Bhakti

Hi Jagadish,
you must configure the R/3 Document Management System (DMS) in transaction
DC10:
1. Create document type SRM. Note that no flag is set in any of the columns.
2. Double click in the detail view to define the new Doc. type desc. = SRM Documents.
Set the Use KPro indicator.
Enter 1 in the Number assignment field.
Enter an internal number range interval. You can use an existing interval or
create a new one in transaction CV90. The internal number range must be used,
because the GUID of the SRM attachments has more digits than the number in
the backend system.
Maintain the number exit. The number exit is a program exit for document
number. It controls number assignment and version numbering for documents.
The default setting is MCDOKZNR. If you want to control the number assignment
or the version increment via a USER_EXIT, then you have to replace the
program MCDOKZNR with a company-specific program. You can find further
information in the field help for number exit.
In the screen area Field selection enter – in the field Document Status.
3. Go to the Dialog Structure and double-click on the entry Define object links. Define the
new object links EKPO and EBAN. Maintain object link descriptions for EKPO
(Purchase order item; Scr.no. 248) and EBAN (Purchase req. item; Scr. no. 247)
4. Define the workstation application in transaction DC30.
All required file types should be included in this list.
5. Activate Document Transfer
SPRO> Integration with other mySAP.com Components> Supplier Relationship Managemen> Message Control> Activate Document Transfer --> Execute
6. Assign the Document Type Define earlier and the Category to the Object type  ex: BUS2012 (PO)
Ensure that you maintain a relation between BUS Object/ DMS Document Type/ Category.
Note: Check XML Monitor, make sure the attachment exist in Binary format.
Let me know if any questions!
