Change process order 'Created By' field

Question

Hi,
I am creating process order by planned orders through transaction COR7.
My requirement is to change 'Created By' field.  The transaction update the Created By field with login id.
Is there any way to  change this field with userid other than login id.
I have already checked all the user exits used in this transaction.
Regards,
Seema Naharia

Hi,
Is the document which you want to change the “Document Created By”  referred by others?
Is the versioning or workflow turned on in the document library ?
Are there some other  influences  if you delete the file and upload it again?
If the answer is “No”, I suggest you to delete the file and add again in code.  Then you can change the “Author” column of the document
as the method what Steve.Curran said.
SPDocumentLibrary targetLib = (SPDocumentLibrary)web.Lists["your documents"];
SPFile file = targetLib.RootFolder.Files["your file"];
byte[] fileBins= file.OpenBinary();
file.Delete();
SPUser createBy=web.EnsureUser("your user account");
DateTime created=new DateTime (2010,1,1);
SPUser modifiedBy=web.EnsureUser("your user account");
DateTime modified=new DateTime (2010,1,1);
targetLib.RootFolder.Files.Add(file.Name, fileBins, createBy, modifiedBy, created, modified);
Hope it’s helpful to you.
I think I can.
