Authorizations for document management

Hi,
I'm trying to figure out what every authorization means and which effects it has...
I created a new user, gave him all the necessary authorizations to use certain transactions in Document management by making a new role/profile for him
After trying everything out, I still have a few questions:
- with Authorization for change object link (C_DRAD_OBJ)I have the following properties:
Activity: change, display
document type: DRM-DRM
linked SAP object: *
document status: *
I know how to display my object link, but how can I change it? Do they mean with changing the object link, the creating of long text for the link or is there more to it?
- with authorization for document access (C_DRAW_DOK), I can't figure out what the options "Display Application archive" and "Change application archive" mean. Which effect does it have when I choose them? Where do I consult the application archive? What is the application archive? => SOLVED
- Do I also have to give the authorization "Display" when I want to give the authorization to delete something? How can I delete a document info record without displaying it? =>SOLVED
- With "Status dependent authorizations for documents" (C_DRAW_TCS) what do the following options do?
 *change application start (which difference with change?)=>SOLVED
display application start (which difference with display)=>SOLVED
 *request
 *display archive =>SOLVED
 *change archive=>SOLVED
I know it are a lot of questions but I'm making documentation on the authorization profiles of document management and when I figured those few last things out, I can share my documentation with the rest of you...

Good morning,
Havent been watching this thread for some time now, so please shout if you do have any questions.
Just a quick note on deleting documents:
Setting the deletion indicator will simply mark the DIR for deletion, but, it will still be on the dB.
After you have set the DIR for deletion, you need to run the program "MCDOKDEL", which has a test mode and a real mode.
This program will physically delete the documents that you have marked for deletion.

You may ask from user to provide you SU53 screenshot or if you know how to simulate the required authorization, you can trace the object using tcode ST01.

Repository for Document Management System

Hi All,
I need to devleop a repository [ just like Document Management System ] for my existed application which is handling the documents.
If any user having access to the repository, opens the directory, he should not see any documents.
Please let me know, what are the technologies to be used etc., etc.,
Any suggestions or info will be appreciated.

Raju

The file system is controlled by the operating system. Thus if you want to manage permissions at that level then you must use the OS.
There are no "other" technologies for that. You can buy or find management applications which allow you to do the same thing that the OS does but via different user approach. Most will be specific to the OS because that allows the most features.

Recommendations needed for document management app

I want to be able to mail text files in various formats (*.pdf, *.html, *.docx etc) to my iPad, where the
files will then be displayed by title. I also want to add a couple of sentences of annotation to each item.
I should then be able to display any given item with a click or tap.
I can mail files to my ibook app right now OK but I can't see any way to annotate an ibook entry and I
really need that.
To review: Imagine that I am working from my desktop. I see a file I want to save to my iPad. I
download it to my PC and mail it as an attachment to my icloud account. I go to Mail in my iPad
and tap the 'Move' icon. The 'Move' icon gives me the opportunity to save it to the document management app,
whatever it is called. I then go to that app and annotate the saved file. The annotation appears next to
the file title. When I tap the entry the file displays.
I assume the right name for an app like this is text management or file management or document management.
What does this???
Thanks,

I do a lot of counselling about a very complicated and dynamic subject. Right now I have to lug 20-30 pounds of reference texts from point A to point B to point C. I bought the iPad Air in hopes I could store this material in the tablet. But the reference material is complicated -- I guess I said that -- and I need lots of words to clarify what the subject is of each pamphlet and brochure, etc, before I can clearly differentiate one from the other. Imagine I have documents A, B and C. In the best of all worlds I would see a metadata display that looked like this:
File A -- Comments
File B -- Comments
File C -- Comments
Taking the filenames and the comments together I decide I need to look at C. I tap that and it displays.
That is the best of worlds. But I see GR allows me to rewrite filenames and maybe doing that will get me to where I want to go.
It does seem strange that with all document-handling packages out there there isn't one that allows comments in metadata. Oh well.
Thanks again,
Fred

Looking for document management software.

I am looking at document management software but can't seem to find what I need. I want something that creates a numerical file name for every document that I save that is automatically generated. In the PC world I know that Worldox does this but I cant seem to find something for the mac. I tried to get some help with this a while back when I was starting my business but had to make do with what I had and have been busy since then. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
the goal would be to open a new pages document and it was save as "00001" then if I scanned something in after that it would be "00002" then the next pages document would be "00003" and so on.

Authorization for Document type in FB60.

Hello everybody,
On executing FB60 transaction code, i want to control the document type entry means
we have basically 2 types of document V1- Pune vendor bill and V2 Mumbai Vendor bill.
I have to give V1 document type authorization only for pune location user and V2 for Mumbai location user.
I had check the object in FB60 but I can't find the authorization object for document type.
I tried by creating test role name z:test and assign transaction FB60 in that role. when I assign this role to
test user he can post both the document type invoice.
So please suggest me how to give the authorization for the V1 and V2.
Thanks

Hello Ganesh!
I believe that authorizations object F_BKPF_BLA is what you're looking for. To use it, however, you will first need to define an authorization group for document type you want to protect. This is done in transaction OBA7; select the document type you want to protect, go into details view and define a value for "Authorization Group" field (this is freely defined, you can enter any value you want).
After you've done this, a check will be performed on auth. object F_BKPF_BLA with the authorization group value you defined for the document type and activity.
(I've never implemented this in our system, but I'm fairly certain that this will work.)

BOR or CLASS for Document Management Service (not SAP DMS for PLM)

Hi All,
Does anyone know if there is already a BOR or CLASS that can be used in Workflow that works with the Document Management Service? This is in reference to the diagram displayed in the following link
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_crm40/helpdata/en/15/aea9375d79fb7de10000009b38f8cf/content.htm.
I assume that there must be a BOR or CLASS that uses DMS that I can use with workflow.
Thanks.

Mass authorization for Property Manager (PN) module

Hello,
We are examining this module in a 12.1 environment and are wondering if there is a way to mass authorize Payment Schedule lines that will be exported to AP. We are using a 3rd party system currently to manage 900+ leases and so far it looks like we would need to click the Approve button for each lease, and do so each month. The authorize screen is found in the seeded responsibility menu path Leases and Documents->Payments->Authorize. If there is not a seeded Concurrent request that is run, could one be easily developed?
Thanks for any insight.
Ryan

Hi Ryan,
You can run the seeded "Approve or Cancel Approval of Schedules" program to authorize/approve multiple schedules. Based on the parameters entered by you, qualifying draft schedules will be approved. You can use the same program to un-approve schedules (in case you inadvertently approve some schedules).
After approving, you can either use the Export to Payables screen OR run the "Export Payment Items to AP" concurrent program to export eligible items to AP.

Mukul

Solution Manager - WF for Document Management

Hi all,
I wonder if any of you have experience with developing workflows in Solution Manager?
I basically need to trigger a simple workflow when there is a change of status in a document stored in the Solution Manager (tcode SOLAR01, Proj. Document tab).
I know that object type SOLMANDOC is available and I know that event signature_process_start is published when the user signs the document. I am not sure how the event gets published - perhaps it is hard coded somewhere, I am just not sure. Any ideas how I can find out? Perhaps I can enhance the code to publish other events?
I have posted the question in Solution Manager forum, but haven't had much luck with it yet.
Thanks in advance for any help you might provide.
Cheers,
Cristiana

Hi,
So far this is what we have done.
on SWE2 we have generated the following triggering event:
    object category: Bor obj type
   obj type: solmandoc
   Event: Signature_process_start
   Receiver type: {defined Workflow}
Linkage settings
   Receiver call: Function module
Receiver FM: SWW_WI_CREATE_VIA_EVENT_IBF
These settings would trigger your Workflow.
You should be able to create the task for your workflow based on each of the methods on the BOR object.
Currently we are using the SIGN method since it allows you to both Review and sign the document.
Current Challenges: we are only allowed to sign the document twice. Once when created and once when reviewed.
We are currently working with SAP in order to allow multiple signature process.

User based Authorization for Documents

Hi All,
Is it possible to have following scenario?
1)
There is a folder A. Inside this folder there is a file abc.txt & xyz.txt.
Now User 1 & User 2 both has access to folder A.
User 1 can read / download the file abc.txt & xyz.txt
User 2 can see only the name of the file inside this folder, but he cant download this file. And he can read / download xyz.txt file.
and instead of user can it be given role based also???
like abc.txt can be downloaded only by R&D role and noth any other users.
The main perpose of this feature is to let user know there is a document stored in a particular folder but he can only see the name of this document.
Regards,
Purav

Hi Jitendar,
From permission we can do only read, write, read & write, Full control thats it.
see the scenario I have given.
User2 cant even read the file, he can only see the name of that file.
I have seen the KM Permission link http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/4c/9d953fc405330ee10000000a114084/frameset.htm
but still counldnt find the solution to my scenario.

UME authorizations for Identity Management

HI:
In order to set up access to allow users to access RAR, I have been placed in GROUP: Administrators in the UME. This provides me the access to go to the Identity Management area and administer users. However, it also allows me acces to EVERYTHING in the SAP Netweaver (WAS).
I would like to create a group called "Security Admin" and restrict it so that I can only access the User Management link. Does anyone know how to do this? I can create the group and assign it to myself, but where do I define what actions are allowed....based on group?
It is very different than adding or removing "actions" from a Role.
When I look at the Administrator group - I do not see where the access is defined so I assume it is hardcoded somewhere.
Thanks,
Margaret

Question figured out. Please ignore.

You've got some reports on the top menu in your folder.
To know the access controls possible, take a look to the roles as an admin.
