DMS Connector & using classification in variant

Hi-
Does anyone know if you use classification values (class and characteristics) in the definition of your KM DMS connector variant if the connector reads them?
Or is there a trick to have the connector recognize that classification values have been entered?
For our connector, it seems that the classification entries are ignored.
Thanks!

Hi
I've seen reference to a SAP-DMS Configuration document.
I'm looking for the implementation Guide for Document Management.
Does anyone have a link.

DMS Connector for KM : I see only one document type from the document area

Hi,
The DMS connector is installed successfully on KM.
I can display folder tree and documents but I see only one type of document.
I mean, when I use transaction OAC0, I see different content repository defined in DMS.
I wonder where is the setting that specified which content is link to the DMS connector for KM.
Thanks in advance.

Hello Zbynek,
I installed the DMS once, but my experience how to use it is poor.
In the Backend ( Transaction CV01N i think,) you can store search variants using the prefix you have defined for the DMSRM (default is KM_<theName>). This variants can be used to filter out several documents. There must be a way to give authorizations on them. Maybe you will have to use a security manager, i don't know.. in our case the user persistence (authScheme) was SAP-System an no TREX involved.
It is not much, but maybe it helps...

BP Dms Connector no show files

HI,
We are at EP 7.0 SP 18 and ECC 6.0
I deploy the BP DMS Connector KM 1.0 ( BPDMSCONN00_0-20000787)
We assign the Role Document Explorer
We follow the instructions in the Library.
In the role we see the carpet dmsrm and below it the carpet Dynamic Carpet
But do not see any files in the folder¡¡¡¡
We think is a problem in DMS don not permit to see the files.
someone had made the procedure in DMS and KM to see the files?.
if we pretend to create a carpet, we see some data of the DMS, so, we know the communication is correct between KM and ECC.
Thanks

Tomas,
The variantprefix is very important. It is defined in the repository service as KM_. Use this to define variants in the DMS. They will then automatically appear in the /dmsrm.DynamicFolder as folders with the description name you gave the variant in DMS. To be able to edit documents and create folders, you need to ensure that you have the Document Manager role assigned to the user who will be maintaining. this role is delivered with the Business package for DMS Connector for KM. Further info can be found in the documentation "Business Package for DMS Connector for KM" that you can obtain from the following website: https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/developerareas/contentportfolio then select the Package documentation Link.
Also, set the properties repository service in the DMSRM repository manager. This will help in indexing the documents should you have Trex installed.
Just a thought, though. Instead of using the Document Explorer, it may be better to provide your users with a KM Navigation Iview, with Breadcrumbs removed and Presenation changed. Alternatively, create a web page (or pages) to the variants in the Dynamic Folder and have a graphical user interface instaed of the explorer interface. Just a thought.

Ed B.

BP DMS Connector for KM 1.0 & ECC 5

Hi All,
I'm trying to configure DMS Connector on EP6 SP16
with ECC 5 as a backend system.
I imported the BP DMS Connector and created a system in the portal that connects to the ECC 5 system.
The connection is available and the backend system
contains DMS repositories and a selection variant
that displays 1000 documents, but when I enter the
Document Explorer in the portal I can only see the Dynamic Folder and it is empty.
When I use an IDES 4.7 system as the backend I can see all the folders and the documents inside.

Hi Vincent/Roey,
Could you guys help me sort a prob, am facing on DMS connector front.
We followed the documentation for dms connector and when we clicked on document explorer all i get is a system error
System Error
An exception occurred during the program execution. Below you will find technical information pertaining to this exception that you might want to forward to your system administrator.
Exception Class: class com.sap.netweaver.bc.rf.common.exception.IOOperationFailedException
Exception Message: Connection Failed: Connection setup failedConnection Failed: Nested Exception. Failed to get connection. Please contact your admin.
What might have gone wrong ? Could you please advice me on this front ?
Thanks,
Anupama

Mapping MDS Characteristics to KM Properties through DMS Connector

Does anyone who who to map individual characteristics attached to a document in DMS to properties in KM using the DMS Connector for KM?
Installing the DMS Connector for KM creates a set of DMS-specific KM propeties. There is a property named dmsrm_characteristics that contains the characteristics assigned to a document in DMS. However, it appears to concatenate all characteristics into this 1 KM property. Does anyone know if there is a way to split these charateristics into seperate KM properties?
Maximum points to the first correct answer.

Hello Zbynek,
I installed the DMS once, but my experience how to use it is poor.
In the Backend ( Transaction CV01N i think,) you can store search variants using the prefix you have defined for the DMSRM (default is KM_<theName>).

API for DMS Connector(KM)

Hi,
We configured the DMS Connector for KM on our portal. The DMS Document Explored Iview has document upload and DIR creation capabilities. We are trying to upload documents for browser(WD Java application) to DMS. We wanted to use the DMS connector functionalities. Is there a DMS Connector API which we can use in our WD Java application to create the DIRs and upload documents to DMS? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
thanks,
Venkatesh.K

Hi Venkatesh,
We had the same issue and raised an OSS message, But as per SAP there is no standard DMS Connector API's for KM at this time. They have proposed this one to be a standard for future releases. But here is a note which would give you an idea of all the Standard BAPI's in DMS. Note :766277

DMS connector

Hi,
I face some problems with the new DMS connector (ECC6):
I have assign the Document Manager role to a user (this user have full right in the ERP system), in the iview I see under the dynamic folder a KM folder (a variant system KM have been created in ERP system).
1- I see the list of the files in the KM folder, and I would like to see the FID containing these files. How to make this, if its possible?
2 If I want to create a new folder or make an upload since the document manager, I have the error message: The item could not be created because an exception occurred in the framework.
3 - If I want to copy or move a file I have the error message: Target must be a real document-based structure.
4 And to finish, I dont see the Public Documents under the Dynamic Folder, nevertheless I have created a document structure with the document number EDIPUBLICROOTFOLDER in the ERP system.
For your information, I work on E P 7.0 SP11 (Netweaver 4s)
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I am also getting Target must be a real document-based structure. at the time of uploading of a document.
Is your problem solved? Can u please share the solution.
Thanks in Advance,

KM DMS Connector isuue

Hello all,
I'm working with DMS Connector but I don't know the limitation of this repository.
Is it read only ? How can I create a Document inside the Portal KM and store it under the DMS repository?
Is the a full documentation about this connector, all I can find is demo PowerPoint presentation without technical information.
Thanks
Amit

Hi Devlin,
if you are using:
"Business Package for DMS Connector for KM"
from:
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/developerareas/contentportfolio
then you will be accessing the DMS through the KM iViews.
Another Business Package you will find when searching the Content Portfolio for "PLM" is:
"Business Package for Design Collaboration"

Dms connector no dynamic folder

Hi
I'm trying to setup the dms connector. I'm stuck in the typical 'no dynamic folder' problem. As I've read on sap documentation and in the forums, I've installed the plugin 2003 or later. I've also configured the 'variant prefix' as 'KM' at the portal dmsrm repository and have created some 'KM_XXX' selection variants at cv04n. Unfortunately, the only thing I see in the 'Document Explorer' is the dms EDIPUBLICROOTFOLDER folder
These are the software versions:
1. DMS connector v1.0
2. PI v2004_1_470 SP SAPKIPZI5C level 12
3. PI_BASIS v2005_1_620 level 0 no SP
4. R/3 v4.7
5. Netweaver 2004s stack 9, portal v7
any clues?
Thank you very much
Alberto
PS: There's another post with the same title but it's not a question. Please post your comments in this thread. Thank you

hi Alberto...
Would be grateful if you can share some documents on the DMS front...We are planning to integrate the portal with DMS ...
One basic question are the documents stored within the DMS already indexed and portal will just point to it ....or we need to index them seperately....
any help from you on this would be great...
cheers

DMS connector to KM

Hi experts,
I hope someone could help me with my problem. We have installed DMS connector on our EP 7.0, configured it, but even though the connection to R/3 is all right the document explorer shows me just 'dmsrm' folder (which corresponds to Prefix attribute set for DMSRMRepositoryManager) with no content in it.
Can someone explain me what needs to be done to get the backend content (documents) displayed in portal? Does it have anything to do with selection variants in R/3?
Thanks a lot for any help at all.
Regards,
Frank

DMS Connector error while creating folder and uploading document.

Hi,
I have configure DMS connector on Portal with ECC. We are able to see /dmsrm -->Dynamic folder and also variant available in ECC and files in variant.
When i try to create new folder in variant, i am unable to create folder . It give me error.
The item could not be created because an exception occurred in the framework
Also i get same errror when i upload new document in same variant.
Please help out.
Regards
Biren

Hi Biren,
Is your issue resolved?
Even I am not able to upload/create documents.
One thing I learnt is you can not create/upload files at the variant level.
You need to create a subfolder under the variant and then you cna create/upload files.
But for me at the subfolder level I am getting "No document Type Specified error"

Exception Class: class java.util.MissingResourceException
Exception Message: Can't find bundle for base name com.sap.pct.plm.dmsrmconnectorforkm.modeledproperties, locale en
Could you provide me more information about this issue?
Points if helpful.

Hi,
Some suggestoins about my issue?
More precisions: First time i've tested my connector it work correctly (no error) However, i can't see only "Dynamic folder". After some modifications on my connector configuration: variant and default storage I've got the previous error.
Even come back to initial configuration i continue to get the same error.
I hope my information will be helpful.
