Automating Attachment to Debtors Invoice Documents

Hello Gurus,
I have a specific requirement where I need to attach excel supporting sheet to documents in debtors ledger(FBL5N) document.  The common pieces of data are Document number/customer number which will be identical in both SAP Debtors ledger and Excel supporting sheet.
Is there any way to automate this so that if you run a macro or so from SAP, it goes and check the .xls file and attach sheet as attachment to the SAP Document?
I've heard of ALE - Application Link Enabling - Is this something relevant ?
Any info would be highly appreciated.

Please note I have found out a simple way of attaching an excel sheet to an accounting document.
In the accounting document there is in between the green tick and the change pencil icon.
If you right click that and then select, create  >> create attachement. It should bring you to a browser and then you can link a local document to a SAP document.
I believe this does not use DMS.

  • How to attach PDF files to invoice document from ECM.

    Hi Gurus,
    We have one requirement in that around three million  invoice pdf files are there in ECM system. we need to attach those pdf files(GOS) to  existing invoice document in SAP.as we searched in SCN we found one function module ARCHIVE_CONNECTION_INSERT. for this  function module we need pass mandatory import parameters as SAP object ID ,Document ID and some other variables(object type, doc.type , repository ID).

    Hello,
    Check with Global document type is maintained for the PDF you are looking for in OAC2. You will find the Document type, for the respective object type, check in OAC3. Content Repository is the archiving ID. Search by the archiving ID.

  • How to create a pdf for the URL attached to an invoice and send it as an attachment in a mail

    HI,
    I have requirement where i need to get the URL attached to an invoice, create the pdf and send as an attachement in a mail.
    The URL attached to an invoice can be seen by following the path : VF03-> Billing document->system->Services for object ->Attachement list.
    On searching through existing forums, i found that there is a table 'SRGBTBREL' which stores relationships of GOS object. On giving the invoice number in field 'INSTID_A', i could find an entry in this table.
    To get the content, i used the class CL_FITV_GOS, method GET_CONTENT. To this method i passed following values:
    IV_ATTA_ID = FOL21000000000521URL39000000000012 (The value if field INSTID_B from table SRGBTBREL)
    IV_OBJTP   = 'URL'
    On execution, i get URL link but the content table is empty.
    Could anybody provide some input on how i get the content? Or may be how i can create pdf from the URL link and attach it to mail as an attachment?
    Thanks,

    Hi Amit,
    Solution provided by you is working when the link length is one line but it is not working for more than one line
    Eg: say link is https://......80 [80 characters long]
    I will give    <a href="https://...72            [in first line]
                     73..80">click here</a>         [in second line]
    I will get the output as 73...80">click here
    But i want only CLICK HERE in my output..
    Please suggest solution.
    Thanks,

  • SD - Two message category for an invoice document type

    Good morning all,
    I use InterCompany biling in SD with standard invoice document type 'IV' and message category  'RD04' (which enables  vendor invoice creation).
    My customer asks to be able to print a form for the intercompany bills.
    For the non intercompany bills this is actually performed by using a specific message category. 
    So my question is : is there any way to have TWO message category ('RD04' + specific message for form) automatically  attached to an intercompany bill (customizing, user-exit,...) ? 
    Best regards.
    Didier GOBLET.

    Hi Didier
    Assign the logic to the RD04 output type smartform.Then it is possible,In the smartform include the logic that it should automatically attach to the intercompany billing.

  • Link Invoice Document using Easy Document Management

    Hi All, is there any way to use Easy Document Management System to attach a scanned document like a PDF to an invoice document.
    If it is there, is it easy to customize?
    We are trying to evaluate different scanning solutions and trying to see if we can make DMS work without purchasing any other software.
    Thanks

    Wrong module. DMS is not designed for invoices. DMS is designed for documents that change and need versioning.
    ArchiveLink is the correct solution/module. This allows you to link incoming invoices directly to the object in SAP in MIRO and FB60.
    If its outgoing invoices, you can link them to sales orders. The document is stored in the GOS (generic object services) area of SAP and will appear in the attachment list. If you go to GOS you will see an option called "Store Business Document" which will be made available when you have configured this properly.
    There is no easy way to customise. You have to install a content server (See SAP HTTP content server) and then configure the document type and which object it will be linked to. You also have to configure the method of processing. I.e. early archiving, late archiving.
    It is possible to set this up using no external software except the SAP HTTP content server which is free with your SAP licensing.

  • How to Enable the SAVE button in the Menu Bar of the Invoice Document.

    Hi.
    How to Enable the SAVE button in the Menu Bar of the Invoice Document as it is disabled for me.
    I would like to save the Invoice document in PDF  format.
    Regards
    Irfan

    Hi,
    Normally, for the archiving or generation of the invoice document in PDF format is handled by maintaining the output records through VV31/VV32 with the relevant printer, storage mode ( 3- print and archive or 2- archive only ), no. of messages ( means no of copies ) in the communication method.
    Then when you click the print button through VF03 in the print options pop-up you get a print at the physical printer and at the same time an archived copy ( PDF copy ) attached with the document.
    So, please make sure the output records are fine to allow a PDF copy generated and then try to print and check in VF03 by entering into the billing document.
    Hope this helps you.
    However, from the print preview you normally would not be allowed to save or print.
    Regards,
    Ram

  • Account determination error in Invoice document posting

    Problem - When generating the invoice document to customer, an error is displayed - Document is saved (Account determination error). As a consequence of this step, the invoicing is not able to create FI document
    My Analysis-
    Account determination is done in G/L account assignment (VKOA screen)
    For my billing document, the system is not able to find the GL account (below are screenshots)
    In VKOA screen, I already defined the GL account determination using KOFI procedure.
    I initially defined in table 2 Cust.Grp/Account Key and it didnt work.
    So I defined in both the tables 1 as well - Cust.Grp/MaterialGrp/AcctKey
    But still system is not reading the tables and obtaining the GL account no
    Any advice on why its not working?

    Hi Nikhil,
    As per the screen shots i could observe that you didn't maintained acct asst grp of customer.
    check the acct asst grp of customer field in billing tab is maintained or not.
    other possible reason may be in your pricing procedure -check whether the accounting keys are maintained or not.
    This could solve your issue.

  • Invoice document missing in MCSI report

    Hi Friends,
    This is regarding missing invoice documents in MCSI report in our production system.
    it was found that two invoice document numbers for a customer were missing where as these two documents are being displayed in BW report.
    I have checked in Info structure table through SQVI query and found that these invoice are not available. STAFO field in VBRK table is updated for these two invoice documents.
    Can anyone tell me what is the process to analyse the issue and how to update only those two missing invoice documents in MCSI report (Infostructure).
    Regards,
    Praveen.

    Hi,
    Thanks for your immediate response....
    - Doc. statistics group @ Invoice type / item category could be missing
    - At the time of execution of report, these settings might not be in place i.e. these doc type / item cat- may not relevant for statistics.
    The above points you have mentioned are not valid as there is no new configuration made and further this is a support project.
    I hope the third point which you have mentioned as below is a valid one.
    - Proper updation of info structure might not be done.
    As per this message, I understood that there was no proper updation of infostructure for those two invoice document numbers. Further, to update two invoice documents in infostructures, we need to run transaction code OLI9.
    Can you please comment on my below queries:
    - Can the transaction be run in live system during any time?
    - Is there any impact on other invoice data in infostructures?
    - If the transaction is executed, all the current infostructures get updated with correct invoice data?
    - What is the impact of executing Txn -  MCVV. Does this transaction only simulates and gives the log on updation of invoice document? or it also adjusts/ updates any data in system?
    Thanks & regards,
    Praveen.
