Customizing the document loading iview

Dear all
we have a fully functional km system. In general whenever we want to load a new document we get a view where we enter name ,disc,..and for show further options we get extra options ..but what we want is to customize it in such a way that it has to show some more options ....(the entire documents in the km has to divided in to categories n subcategories irrespective of its foldar location...so these categories and sub categories have to reflect as options).we want this to refine our search option . it would be convinient if we have the category field and subcategories as the drop down .
can anyone explain me how this can be acheived .

Hi,
Well, i think making use of taxonomies will help you classifying the documents in various catagories, have a look on these links:
Taxonomies:

1. Logon to portal as Administrator which has 'Content Administrator' role
2. Navigate to Content Administrator -> Portal Content
3. Open the tree 'Portal Content'
4. Open the tree 'Content Provided by SAP'
5. Open the tree 'Collaboration'
6. Open the tree 'Demo Role'
7. Open the tree 'iView'
8. Open iView 'My Appointments'
Now you can customize the iView.
Even you can customize all the iView under 'Collaboration Demo' from here.
If you have any questions or want more clerification please feel free to ask.

Hi,
Do you want to modify the preview (displayed under the list of items) or the application which is launched when you click on the work item? If it is the preview, you'll have to customize the task in the backend or modify the UWL xml configuration file. If it is the application you'll have to modify a standard WD Java iView.

Customizing the "Recent Notifications" iView

Hey folks
Our client wants to change the SAP standard "Recent Notifications" iView. He thinks (justifiably) that the headers "subscriptions" and "subscribed items" are a bit vague, so we want to change them to more specific titles, like "subscription management" and "subscription alerts".
Two questions:
1. Is there an easy way of doing this?
2. If not, how do I customize the iView? According to the iView properties, it's based on com.sap.km.cm.actioninbox, but I can't find this in a PAR file anywhere...
We're still on EP6SP14.
Thanks,
Chris

Hi Christopher,
With such modifications you always have to choose between "bad" and "worse" - it's just the question which is which...
Of course you could create a new component with a new name based on the original one and also change the role content to refer to the modified application. On the other side, new SPs have new features and removed bugs, and normally you will like to use these advantages. But if you create a modification in a new namespace, the new PARs aren't referenced.
So, as said, you have to decide what would be more important for you - to have the possibility to upgrade with no extra admin tasks to get your old solution running or to use the new version and to redo the modifications. As in this case "redo" primarily means copy the property files to some place, I would definitely advise to go the way described.
When modifying Java code, this question is harder to answer (and there is no general answer at all). It also can make sense to try to only create some small part of a PAR and from within that, to reference the standard implementation - not always possible and at least initially more work. But to decide what makes most sense is really project and customer dependent.
Hope it helps

Error: "The document information panel was unable to load"

Hello,
I have created a custom document content type that uses a specified word template for a sharepoint document library for contracts and offers, and added a few custom columns in the document library as well. The word template launches succesfully when creating a new item in the document library, but the problem arises when I add custom columns to the word template content type. When the document loads in Word, I get the following error: "The Document Information Panel was unable to load. The document will continue to open. For more information, contact your system administrator." And in details:
"Document Information Panel cannot create a new, blank form.
Document Information Panel cannot open the form. To fix this problem, contact your system administrator.
Form template: http://servername/sitename/proppanel.xsn
The following DataObject either cannot be created or cannot be initialized: list_033AA217-8906-447E-A604-A300F51D4030

The following item already exists in the collection: list_033AA217-8906-447E-A604-A300F51D4030"
Interestingly enough, I have two web applications running on the same server that I have tried to implement this on, and on the other it works flawlessly, meaning that the Document Information Panel launches successfully and I can edit the columns associated with that content type and store the values in a document library. I have also tried to save the DIP template from the working web application and use it as the default DIP template on the other application, but that doesn't work either.
I have also tried to browse through all options and configurations in the application settings in CA and SSP, but to no avail. Any suggestions about what might be causing this problem or how to fix it would be greatly appreciated.

Catastrophic failure -- The Document Information Panel was unable to load

I have a content type that has a document template and a custom document information panel associstaed with it. For most users, these work without issues.
Some users are reporting, however, that they receive the following series of messages when trying to create a new document from the content type:
You are currently working offline.
Here, the user can choose either Try to Connect or Stay Offline.
If the user clicks Try to Connect, the following error message is displayed:
Clicking OK results in the document loading. The DIP loads, but two fields that pull values from a SharePoint list are blank.
Again, this happens for only a handful of users, so it seems like it's an issue with either their local PC or their connection to SharePoint.
So far, I have tried the following:
Repair Office 2010 installation
Removed all locally cached versions of both the document template (.dotx) and the custom DIP (.xsn)
Verified user permissions for the SharePoint site and the SharePoint lookup list
Based on some other posts I've seen, checked to make sure that InfoPath is installed and that IPEDINTL.DLL
is present at
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office14\1033

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that the Document Information Panel was unable to load.
I recommend to go to the
Document Type Advanced Settings, click Edit template, go to
File, click on Inspect, click on Remove All behind
Custom XML Data.
Here is a similar blog for your reference:

Hi,
For a better troubleshooting, I suggest to do as follows:
1. Please try to update the Location column's schema by following the steps below.
1) Go to Site Settings -> "Site Columns"
2) Click on "Location", after the page is opened. Don't modify any settings, click "OK" to forcibly update the field's schema.
2. Re-edit the document information panel template to see if the issue still occurs.
Please go to the Library setting > click the corresponding content type(need to enable managed of content types in Advanced settings) > click Document Information Panel settings.
3. Here are some similar links about your issue, please take some time to look at them:

The Document Information Panel was unable to load.

Platform: SharePoint 2013, Office 2013.
Background: When you open an Office document from SharePoint users get this error:
The Document Information Panel was unable to load. The document will continue to load. For more information, contact your system administrator."
"The form cannot be opened. To fix this problem, contact the form designer. Form template:

I tried running this fix: http://www.cb-net.co.uk/microsoft-articles/2063-sharepoint-2010-templates-and-document-information-panel-errors, but it kept saying that it couldn’t see the url that

Can anyone help me out?

The Document Information Panel Was unable to load. Please Help

Hello all,
I just recently created my own custom Document Panel in InfoPath. I uploaded it into a custom content type. I applied this to a document library and it is the standard document panel for creating a new document within that document library. When I click
"New document" I get this error..
The Document Information Panel was unable to load. THe document will continue to open. For more information, contact your system administrator.
Details:
Document Information Panel cannot open a new form.
The form cannot be opened. To fix this problem, contact the form designer.
Form template: http://Mysite/_cts/DIPTestContentType/Myfirstform.xsn
The SOAP response indicates that an error occurred on the server:
Exception of type 'Microsoft.SharePoint.SoapServer.SoapServerException' was thrown.
<detail><errorstring xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/soap/">No item exists at http://Mysite/My DIP Test.docx. It may have been deleted or renamed by another user.</errorstring><errorcode xmlns="(html
for the error code..had to delete it because my body text cannot contain images or links until my account is verified but it is a link to Microsoft support)
...It appears that it is not locating the custom Document Panel.
Could anyone point me in the right direction?

KM document iview transport & the document transport in KM.

We are EP 7.0 SP 18.
I have created a KM document iview in dev system and set the Path to document porperty of the document iview to guid of a document in KM.
Transported both the iview and KM content to QA system, epa and kmc files.
The iview fails to load. After, intial debugging. I found that the GUID is changed for the KM document after transport. Is it normal? In that case how are the KM document iviews going to work.
PLease, let me know the fix.

Hi Raj1234,
See i m telling you the exact phase of transport how you can do but some part is missing from your end...
System Admin->Transport->Export-> Portal COntent>Click on respective folder>Make the transport package>
When the package is made --> than again Add on folder level and Add All objects to transport package or you can define single -2 AFter that
Mandatory :
In Right Property Editor - Resolve Refrence is "Yes" mode
second Transport mode is in "data_and _acl"
Select all added item (ivews package) and click on export->Start Export>Download the file. Same as when you uploaded your fle in another server in Importing the file.
This will helpful to you and know which part you are missing.

My Client requires a custom report to track the document flow any time i.e., once the material arrives the purchase dept makes an entry like PO date the date of arrival,and Gr date the GR approval date and document handed over for Invoice verification date and payment made date.
How is achieve this?
Regards
R.Senthilnambi

No My client requirement is not like that,suppose one fine day if he wants to track the positon of GRN document or a bill at what stagei.e.,if in FI if they say they have not received any document to process or they hold the document for days and say just today GRN has been handed over to him ,The Materials guy has to generate a report and say this is the day the document is handed over to you.
Is this can be done.or only out of SAP.

CDESK: How to get a customized content in the document list tab

I try to get a specific list of document info records (DIR's) in the document list tab of the CDESK - similar to the document search result.
I use the Addin-BADI and the ~PROCESS_NEW_FUNCTIONS/~ADD_NEW_FUNCTIONS methods to start a costumer specific selection of DIR's.
For instance I want to select all documents with contain the digits 99.
Then I want to show the selection result as the content of the document list tab to proceed with further steps like ckeck-out and so on.
I followed an example which I found in this forum, see thread "CDESK: Start userdefined search program and recieve DIRs".
My coding is:
method if_ex_cdesk_tbm_addin~process_new_functions.
    when 'ZFCODE_ARBVOR'.
      data lt_draw type table of draw.
      select * from draw into table lt_draw
        where dokar = 'TKD'
          and doknr = '99'.
      sort lt_draw stable by dokar doknr doktl dokvr ascending.
      delete adjacent duplicates from lt_draw comparing dokar doknr doktl dokvr.
      PERFORM refresh_sap_list IN PROGRAM saplcdesk TABLES lt_draw USING 'X'.
But nothing happens with the document list when executing this customer function.
I assume it is not possible to update the document list out of a BADI in that way.
Does anyone has some hints?
Kind regards,
Matthias Fischer

Hi Khaled,
There is an standard RFC RFC_READ_TABLE which can read any table in R/3. But the data returned will be unformatted hence you need to parse it. This FM has few limitations aswell.
RFC_READ_TABLE is an RFC that allows users to read a table remotely. This is important particularly to Java developers using JCO to communicate with an ABAP back-end. Unfortunately, RFC_READ_TABLE has size limitations; it also incorrectly reads binary data. Also no authorization checking takes place.
Also refer the link below

hope this helps..
