Business Document Navigator...attaching a URL

hi all....
We have requirement wherein we have to attach a URL to an object through OAOR (Business Document Navigator).
As per SAP documentation on link below
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/cb/a48d384ba2a767e10000009b38f8cf/frameset.htm
it says this is possible using document type WWW address. We didn't find any such document type in the list of standard document types and not in the configuration settings for document types through SPRO.
Can any one elaborate on this, how can be add a URL to an object through BDN. On clicking on the URL the internet address should open in a browser.
As of today we can attach word documents, powerpoint presentation, web page(html), but we are unable to attach a URL.
Thanks & Regards,
Abhishek Pradhan

Business Document Navigator -- Show only specific document types

Hello to all,
I'm using the business document navigator.
With parameter excluding of method cl_bds_document_set=>call_navigator you can disable the standard document types are shown by passing the value NO_STANDARD_DOCS.
Is it possible to define document types that should be shown and aren't a standard document type?

It will return an error but yet it allow to be created under HOLD

IMP. ME21N Store Business Document maximum attachment size.

Hi,
Could you please let us know, while attaching documents in PO thorough the functionality ' Store Business Documents' what is the maximum permisible size of the file that can be attached.
Also, is there any limit to the number of files that can be attached in a single PO.
Early response would be appriciated.

hi
this depends upon the file size specified in your Document management System (DMS) customization setting.

Need authorization for business document services attachment list with user status in ps claim for clm2 and clm3

Dear Friends,
client wants to restrict the attachment list changing, deletion after the user status sets to close in PS Claims for transaction clm2 and clm3.
Currently any one can attach documents as GOS and delete even the claim is completed and status is closed.
How can we restrict all users even who created the claim can not change create and delete attachment list documents once the claim is completed and approved and user status sets to closed.

HI,
what is the claim creation transaction in that 01 is for creation 02 is for edit and 03 for display so with the help of basis consultant you can assigned transaction in user's assigned role accordingly.
But user who is authorize for create claim can not modified or edit once he save the job. this would be limitation.

Download business document (T-code: OAOR) in background mode

I have attached a file to a production order and it is saved as a business document. From t-code OAOR (business document navigator), I can view the attachment (or directly from the production order).
I would like to download the attachment in background mode. Up to now, I only find a method export_attachment in the ABAP object cl_gos_document_service which can download the attachment in frontend.
Is there any ABAP object / FM which can cater this? Or please kindly suggest what can I do in order to achieve this. Your help is greatly appreciatedly. Thanks!
Below is the material that I can find in this forum
Re: Sales Order Attachment

check out this weblog.
/people/rammanohar.tiwari/blog/2006/03/25/generic-object-services-gos--in-background--part-ii
this for loading gos documents in background (not downloading) but should give you a pointer on how to go about it.

Business Object Services- Attachment vs store business document

Hi,
There are two ways to add attachments to a Purchase requisition.
1. as a generic attachment- (System --> services for object --> create attachment )
2. as a business document ( System --> services for object -->store business doucment)
Looks like in both the options, attachments could be stored on HTTP Content server.
What are pros and cons of storing an attachment as a business doc?
What are additional functions possible with option 2?
Thanks ,
Vinay

Hi,
Attachments are stored in binary format.
Advantage of storing in SAP is speedy access, than compared to content server.
Disadvantage some of the table space grows exponently.
Some of the tables attachments get stored are SO*
To get the link for the folder and attachments stored in SRGBTBREL
Various type of attachments are ATTA NOTE URL MSG etc.
For custom attachment options can be enabled using class CL_GOS_MANAGER

Business document attachment in AS02

Hi All,
We have a requirement from our customer to store business documents with the asset master data.
In AS02 Tcode, we have an option to store the business document. We have enabled this option to store the documents individually via Tcode AS02.
We used Tcodes OAC2 and OAC3 to enable the option.
We have mass asset change program created in our system, we have to incorporate this
functionality in that program.
We used standard BAPI in the mass change program. We could modify the existing screen fields, however we want to know how we can attach the business/support document with each asset using mass upload program.
Appreciate your suggesstions.
Thanks,
Jayasudha

How can I get INSTID_B for the documents which are stored using Store Business Document functionality

Dear experts,
I had activated the functionality of Store Business document and successfully stored documents in external server.
My client have a custom function module which is used to send emails.In that FM they used SO_DOCUMENT_READ_API1, SO_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1 function modules.They passed Instance Ident(SRGBTBREL->INSTID_B)(eg: FOL33000000000004EXT39000000000026) as export parameter to the FM 'SO_DOCUMENT_READ_API1' and get the attachment details and content.
Here my problem is I do not have entries in the table SRGBTBREL for the documents which are stored using the Store Business Document functionality and without INSTID_B I am unable to use the FM 'SO_DOCUMENT_READ_API1' to get the document details and content. Please help me to find INSTID_B for documents which are stored using Store Business Document functionality or please let me know if there is any other way to use FM 'SO_DOCUMENT_READ_API1' for documents which are stored using Store Business Document.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Kiran

Hi Kiran,
You can use the following method to get the information. For example if you want to get BO documents for a customer
CALL METHOD cl_binary_relation=>read_links
   EXPORTING
     is_object           = ls_lpor
     it_relation_options = lt_relat
   IMPORTING
     et_links            = lt_links.
then fill ls_por-instid with a customer number (KUNNR), ls_por-typeid = 'KNA1' and ls_por-catid = 'BO'.
Table lt_relat should contain a line option for each document type (for example 'I' 'EQ' 'NOTE', 'I' EQ 'ATTA', 'I' EQ 'URL', ...
In table lt_links you will get your information.
Maybe some other methods of class CL_BINARY_RELATION may also solve your issue.

Klaus

Attaching local URL via WS 2.0 returns SBL-DBC-00111 and SBL-EAI-04375

I can create attachments using Insert in WS 2.0. Now I need to create an attachment as URL to a local server, in the form User Guide suggests: as \\scdept\attachments\products.xls and I also know that I can do it via OD GUI.
But any attempt to do it via WS returns this error:
*Method 'WriteRecord' of business component 'Opportunity Attachment' (integration component 'Opportunity_Opportunity Attachment') for record with search specification '[Id] = "AIHA-HBX3A"' returned the following error:"An error has occurred writing to a record.*
*Please continue or ask your systems administrator to check your application configuration if the problem persists.(SBL-DBC-00111)"(SBL-EAI-04375)*
The SOAP call is this:
SOAP action is: document/urn:crmondemand/ws/ecbs/opportunity/:OpportunityInsert
SOAP body is: *<soap:Body><OpportunityInsert_Input xmlns="urn:crmondemand/ws/ecbs/opportunity/"><ListOfOpportunity recordcount="1" xmlns="urn:/crmondemand/xml/Opportunity/Data"><Opportunity><Id>AIHA-GVS1O</Id><OpportunityName>AIHA-GVS1O</OpportunityName><ListOfAttachment lastpage="true" recordcount="1"><Attachment><OpportunityId>AIHA-GVS1O</OpportunityId><DisplayFileName>AIHA-GVS1O_Form</DisplayFileName><FileNameOrURL>//backup/Shared/customers/AIHA-GVS1O_Form.txt</FileNameOrURL></Attachment></ListOfAttachment></Opportunity></ListOfOpportunity></OpportunityInsert_Input></soap:Body>*
I tried removing parent ID ( OpportunityId ), I tried adding +<FileExtension>URL</FileExtension>+, I tried specifying URL as file://backup/Shared/customers/AIHA-GVS1O_Form.txt, ... The same error is always returned.
Do I have to revert to WS 1.0? Does it work there?
Are file URLs supported at all with WS (as opposed to HTTP and FTP)?

I saw this message recently in some testing, but only see it intermittently in one environment - did you ever resolve this issue?

Link invoice with Business Document

Hi all,
I am looking for a way to link my invoices (from R/3 Invoice overview) with the original scanned invoice in TIFF format (business document).
I can see that this is possible using the "Attach Business Document" feature in the change invoice sreen, but I do not want to set this link up manually.
Is there anyway assign a "business document" to an invoice (or the other way around) automatically?
Thanks!

Services for Object - Store Business Documents (issue with XLSX files)

Hi,
We are using the Services for Object > Store Business Document to be able to drag and drop files into (for example) Sales Inquiry, Sales Order, Sales Quotations etc.
Within OAC2 we have set up the global document types and these have been linked to the relevant Object Types and Content Repositories in OAC3. We have also set up the Content Repository as Document Area 'ARCHLINK'.
The ArhciveLink Basic Settings in OAG1 have the 'Always Copy Document Class from Document Type' set under Storage Settings.
The issue we are having is with XLSX document types. When we drag and drop the XLSX documen type using the Store Business Document the file is stored against the Sales Order but when you come to view the attachments MS Excel opens but an error message appears saying 'Excel cannot open the file '******' because the file format or file extension is not valid. Verify that the file has not been corrupted and that the file extension matches the format of the file'?
We have reviewed SAP notes 1925897, 1739026 and 1145885 however non appear to give me a clear answer as to why this is happening?
I have found that if we unselect the option 'Always Copy Document Class from Document Type' in OAG1 then we can open the XLSX files.
As we have a significant amount of documents attached to various objects, what would be the implications of making this change agianst existing records and new records?
Any advice on this issue would be greatly appreciated.
Gary B

Hi David,
No joy I'm afraid!!
I added entry 'xlslx' with the relevant MIME Type, Application and Description into table TOADD for the ArchiveLink settings and also this entry was already in tables SDOKMIME and SDOKFEXT for KPro.
I then following the process via the Services for Object within VA12 (Change Inquiry) to then Create > Store Business document > Select the relevant Document Type > Drag and Drop the XLSX file into the empty box.
I then saved the record and tried to view the attachement but I am still getting the same message 'Excel cannot open the file '******' because the file format or file extension is not valid. Verify that the file has not been corrupted and that the file extension matches the format of the file'?
Our client is on componet SAP_BASIS release 701 Support Level 0014 and Support Package SAPKB70114 and I can see that note 1237688 is for SAPKB70112?

RFC/FM to store Business document in Purchase Order from external system

Hi All,
I have been going through various threads for suitable solution, but could not find one which can meet our requirements. Appreciate, if you could share your expertise for the following requirement.
Requirement: One of our external system is going to create/change Purchase Orders in SAP using standard BAPI's (BAPI_PO_CREATE1,BAPI_PO_CHANGE etc.,). During this process, they would like to attach supporting documents (.pdf, .jpeg, .xls etc) as 'store business document' for the same PO. As per our current configuration, we can attach the documents as dialog user from ME22N/ME23N transaction and attached documents are stored in our IXOS/ Archive server.
Is there any standard BAPI/FM (RFC) available to achieve above requirement?. And what are the parameters we need to pass in the FM to attach or delete documents.
System Details: SAP ERP ECC6 & Netweaver 7.0
Kind Regards
Kumar
