Business Document Object image (OAER) in Smartform

Hi folks,
This topic has been raised before, but no definitive answer has been provided.  We have a Company Logo that has been loaded into the Business Documents repository via txn OAER for ALV Report headers.  We wish to use the same image in our custom smartforms.  Using the standard graphics image object in the smartform doesn't find the BDR image.
Without reloading the image via SE78, is it possible to display the BDR Image in a Smartform, and if so, could you please indicate how?
Regards,
Steve

  • 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
    aRs
    If useful pl. assign points

  • 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.

    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?

    Hello,
    For your requirement, you should have ArchiveLink configuration...
    Below are the step you should perform for Late Document Archiving
    > Create Document Type and assign document class in transaction OAC2
    >> Assign Content Repository, Link table to your Business object type and document type in transaction OAC3.
    After this you can perform Late document archiving in FB32 transaction with help of GOS = Generic object service.
    Steps in GOS - Select Create > Click on Store Business document >> Select your document type and attach required image. This will help in storing incoming or outgoing documents for your business transactions in archive server through content repository assigned to document type.
    Note: Above works if Archive Infrastructure in place & connected to SAP system. If not then directly you can attach the incoming and outgoing documents to your business transaction so that all the attachment will be stored in SAP database.
    Hope this information will help you.

  • CHiP BSSP_ATTACHMENTS store business document

    I added the CHiP BSSP_ATTACHMENTS to my custom web dynpro application.  I got it to work, but the attachments attach to the content server.  We want the attachments to go to the archive server (i.e. IXOS).  To do this manually, you would to the GOS menu and choose 'Store business document'.  I believe the CHiP is using the GOS menu item 'Attach' which stores to the content server (SAP database).
    Anyone know how I can tell the CHiP to store to the archive server instead?
    Thanks.

  • What is the best way to create business documents in CRM

    Hi All,
    What is the best way to create business documents like contract, sales order, debit memo etc in CRM ? Unlike R3 we can't use our good old BDC with recording. Moreover for most of them although there are Business Object but no BAPI to creation so what is the way ? I found in SDN there are two MAGIC Function module CRMXIF_ORDER_SAVE. Do I need to that alawys ?
    Is it nees to via IDoc and cannot be done just by calling from ABAP program ? The input parameter of the FM is a complex deep structure.
    Please help.

    Ashim,
    Try looking at the program:
    CRM_TEST_ORDER_MAINTAIN
    I think that should help you figure out the parameters.
    Good luck,

  • Using GOS to store business document on the content server

    Hello All,
    BACKGROUND
    We use content server to store business documents via ArchiveLink.  The process to store a business document is via Generic Object Services menu path "Create -> Store business document". 
    ISSUE
    When document is stored in such a way, the actual name of the document is not displayed in the "Attachment list" of the GOS menu nor is it stored on the content server.  What we see instead in the "Attachment list" is a description of the Archive object (TOASP-objecttext) for all documents that we store. 
    NEED HELP
    We need to have a document's name (i.e. name of the uploaded file) displayed in the "Attachment list" of GOS.  We also need to be able to retrieve this file name programmatically via a function call or a class method. 
    Any help is greatly appreciated.
    Gene.

    1. In GOS attachment list i can able to see the attachment name (without extension) may be you need to check your layout using change layout (its may hidden)
    2. For getting attachment name programatically try this way
      i_object-typeid = 'BUS2012'.
      i_object-catid  = 'BO'.               
      i_object-instid = yatthdr-docno.       " Document Number
      refresh : i_brel, i_link.
    * Get Attachment List
      append 'ATTA' to i_brel.
      if not i_brel is initial.
        select *
          from srgbtbrel
          appending corresponding fields of table i_link
          for all entries in i_brel
          where
            instid_a eq i_object-instid and
            typeid_a eq i_object-typeid and
            catid_a  eq i_object-catid and
            reltype  eq i_brel-reltype.
      endif.
      wa_filter-send_info = ' '.
      wa_filter-no_content = 'X'.
      loop at i_link into ls_link.
        clear : wa_doc_data.
        wa_fol_cont-doc_id = ls_link-instid_b.
        call function 'SO_DOCUMENT_READ_API1'
          exporting
            document_id                = wa_fol_cont-doc_id
            filter                     = wa_filter
          importing
            object_header              = wa_obj_hdr    
            document_data              = wa_doc_data
          exceptions
            document_id_not_exist      = 1
            operation_no_authorization = 2
            others                     = 3.
    You can find the File Name in the WA_OBJ_HDR

    Hi Seema,
    I had a look at this weblog. This is if I have to implement the functionality from Background.
    But I am attaching a document by using Storebusiness document link in the GOS toobar via frontend.
    This is late archiving.
    At this point of time if I display the attachments, it is not showing the creator name for the documents attached via the link "Store Business document" . But if I attach through "create attachment" it is displaying the creator name.
    I am wondering why it is not taking creator name, did I miss any configuration part?

  • Store Business Documents

    Does anyone have any experience with storing business documents in SAP while using a Mac?
    We have several users that are on Macs.  They are unable to attach files/documents to their SAP documents.  The screens they see are not the same as I would expect from the PC world.
    Sorry to be so vague.  But, I really don't know where to begin on this one.
    A user received the following error message:  Store business document Access via 'NULL' object reference not possible.
    Monique Stephens

    Hi,
    Absolutely it is not possible.
    The services for object is only visible, once the original object is created.
    Even if you check for normal F-02 entry also, it wont be visible during entry, but will be visible after posting if we go thru FB02 or FB03.
    Any attachment can be assigned through the services for object, is possible only after creation of the dependent / original data.
    So for AS02 and AS03, the dependent data has to be there in the DB, which has been created with AS01.
    Thanks,

  • Store business document inactive in transaction CJ20N

    Hi,
    The option "Store Business Document" is inactive in the transaction CJ20N.
    I saw a couple of forums that said that I have to create an archive link for this but I don't know for example what "Object Type" I can use for this in the transaction "OAC3" or what steps I have to follow to enable this option.
    Thanks for the help!

    Hi,
    I think that I figure it out how can I activate the "store business document" using your comments and this forum:
    Activate GOS business application for object PREL
    Now, my question is, could I use any TOA0# table when I'm creating an object type in the transaction OAC3?
    I saw that in my system I have the tables TOA01, TOA02 and TOA03 created but these tables contains entries.. is ok if I use for example TOA01 for the "Object type" that I have to create?
    Thanks for the help!
