Creation of document in CProjects which is sent to DMS system

Question

Hi all,
I am trying to create a document in CProjects which would be linked to the DMS system. When I try to create a document with reference to another the document number is coming blank. I even tried transfering the doucment after save.
Actually I am trying to see the cycle from creation of Documents in CProjects portal to the creation of Document in the DMS system. I need to make customised changes to the Document in DMS while creation of the same.
Please help me regarding the same.
Thanks & Regards,
Niranjani.

Hi Niranjani,
you can handover a document from cProjects to SAP DMS and vice versa.
Therefore you need some customizing settings: SPRO -> Cross application components -> define document types -> select one document type -> define object links -> define document type, object link (DPR_OBJLNK).
In addition you need the following setting: -> Integration with other mySAP components -> cProjects -> SAP DMS integration -> Specify document types… -> define system, defaultDMS document type and status.
You can find details in the help portal at the following link:<a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_ppm400/helpdata/en/93/bb23fde82147698d4f50f90cca1e95/content.htm">help</a>
Now you can do the following: On tab SAP DMS in cProjects you can create a new DIR as a container (create –> create link to new document info record -> continue -> select document type -> SAVE). The DIR is created when you save the project. (You can also do this in the cProjects template, so with every new project this DIR is created automatically)
Then select the container and press “transfer documents” -> project definition -> continue -> select the documents in cProjects you want to hand over -> press copy to dms -> save documents.
When you now press the button display document structure you should see the new DIR in SAP DMS you just created.
