DMS - workstation application

Created a new workstation application as WMV to movie files having extension wmv. Using cv01n created a document and attached a word file and wmv file. When i searh and open the document for display/view only the word file is shown as attached, wmv file is not shown. But when i click on edit both the attached files are shown. Edit authorization is not given to all the users. What changes need to be done to showthe wmv attachement in view/display mode.
Atul

Hi Atul,
The reason for this behavior is propably that there is
some profile maintained in your system which allows only the display
of some special application types and filters all the other in
display mode (CV03N). To correct this I would kindly ask you to
check the existing profiles in your system in the customizing under
- Cross Application Components
    - Document Management System
        - General Data
            - Define profile
In your case please select an existing profile and then go to
"Determine definitions for applications". There you will see the
profile key and the application type. To display all
applications please weither delete all the maintain entries here or add
more applications and set the flag in the DISPLAY box.
Afterwards the original files should be displayed again in transaction
CV03N too.
Best regards,
Christoph

Easy DMS and workstation application

Hi all,
We are using Easy DMS. Each time we copy a file from e.g. my documents we need to choose the workstation application. As long as we only use Easy DMS I do not see the point of it... Is it possible to avoid? If is not? What do I need to customize to make it work properly? Directly from DMS when I try to display the file I get an error saying that this file does not have a program which can execute the function.
Regards Camilla

Hi Camilla,
please check SAP note 918039 and create the FM 'Z_EASYDMS_GETWS_APPLICATIONS'. Please follow exactly the mentioned steps in the note and then EasyDMS should take the settings from DC30 transaction in the backend automatically. So please create this function module and after activating it, the application should be selected automatically.
Please also reset the RFC Cache in EasyDMS.
Additionally please verify that in transaction DC30 the correct entries for the different file formats are maintained.
Best regards,
Christoph

hi,
1. DC30, Set flag, You can't Rename temaprory files.
3. In the IMG activity Define workstation applications in network, you enter the data carrier type (for example, PC with Windows NT operating system), the workstation application (for example, Microsoft Word), and:
The path for finding the source file in the file manager
An entry for application type 2 (change), so that you can copy the original application file of the previous document version.
or example, you can create a source file in application Microsoft Word to store a letter that already contains certain data (such as sender, address, and other text elements) and a style sheet.
Whenever you create a new original application file in Microsoft Word from a document info record of the selected document type, the data in the source file is copied to the new original application file, where you can edit it. weiter bearbeitet werden.

For same doc. type I could able to view for other workstation applications.
What went wrong ?
Does any other customization affect this ?

No default workstation application TRM on applying SAP Note 1320374

Hello Gurus,
My question, as you can see in the title is that I'm trying to apply the SAP Note 1320374 and in the step B7 it sais that you have to go to this path,
IMG--> Cross-Apllication Components -->Document Management --> Control Data --> Define Document Types
and enter:
Default Application: TRM
Dis. WS Apllic. : TRM
and some more data.
And the question is that I don't have defined 'TRM' application in my system, so I've discovered that I can create that application by going in the spro to the path "Define Workstation Apllication" but i don't know the data I have to put on it.
I would appreciate if someone let me know what is the necessary data on that application.
Thanks!

Maybe if I put the full path where the Define Workstation Application is located, someone could check if has the entry TRM on it.
Path: IMG--> Cross-Apllication Components -->Document Management --> General Data --> Define Workstation Application
Any response will be highly appreciated

Workstation Application

Hi Guru's
We are using Windows vista.I want to define new Workstation application.
For Excel : xlsx & Word : docx
Pls let me know what are all the steps involved to create a new workstation application..
Kindly explain me briefly..
Regards,
Bhanu

Can you pls tell me what has to be defined in "Define Workstation Application in network"
In Define Workstation Application in network you setup how the file will be behave when you display, change or print.
As Data carr. type you set PC
As Application type you define the setting for display, change and print. E.g. you will have three lines one for display, one for change and one for print.
In most cases you set Path with prog. name to %AUTO%. In your case it would be preferred to set %SAP-OFFICE-INTEGRATION.INPLACE%. This will open the file in SAP and not in the stand alone application.
Path for ref. file can you leave blank.
Hope this will help you!

Define Workstation Application per document type

Hello friends
Is it possible to restrict some worstation application per document type?
I mean, for a specific document type only XLS files are allowed?
Thanks in advance
Luis Ike

Hi Luis,
yes you can define it in the customizing:
Logistics - General - Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) - Document Management - Control Data - Define Document Types
Select a document type and check details. There you can define a default WS application.
If you define it to XLS and you do not assign XLS to any other document types then I think you can reach what you want.

Workstation application error

I get the following message when trying to install an application via ZEN.
Unable to process registry setting
[HKEY_CURRENT_USERSOFTWAREMICROSOFTPROTECTED STORAGE SYSTEM PROVIDER....
(D016)
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

Delete the key from the application and increase the version number.
That key is just background noise from Windows operating and not part of
your application.

Workstation Application : CAD in Architecture

The MSI GT60 2OJ Mobile Workstation is used by IBC SPACE & COMMERCIAL, Germany at Stand construction: From conceptual design, through the complex CAD conversion and the visual presentation to the customer to building at the fair - the MSI GT60WS accompanied every step without a fixed location to be bound.

Your great deal may not be such a great one if all the apps you have are intel ones. You cannot change the processor to intel, and as Allan correctly says, you will have to use older versions of the apps you have, they simply will not run on PPC architecture. There may be older versions of Skype, for instance, that you can download, Google all your apps and see what you can find.

Error when using Easy DMS

Hello,
I want to use Easy DMS bur on adding a file to the SAP System I always get the following error message:
"Document type SPE does not exist (check your entry)"
First of all I chose another DocType and not SPE (which is not defined), therefore I do not need this doctype.
When using the CV01N there is no problem and no error message for the same file and the same settings.
Yesterday I defined the settings for the integration of SolidEdge in the SPRO "CADDesktop". So perhabs there could be a problem.
Thank you for your help!!!
Markus

selva

Hi Selva,
Refer blog: http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/PLM/2.Customizing(CA-DMS-EAI)
Section : Define Workstation application in Network
For column: Application (path and program)
Maintain the value %SAP-OFFICE-INTEGRATION.INPLACE%
Above configuration will open the Micrsoft Office application within the window for processing the document info record.
Hence user will not be able to download the attachment.
And with option of Authorization controls you can disable "SAVE" and "PRINT" options from the menu screen.
Hence user will not be able to save or print the attachment.

Print from DMS directly

hi all,
    i have a requirement that document should be printed directly from DMS. i came to kno from someone that there is s program named MCDOKPRT which can solve my problem. But i tried that program, it is giving me some text and not displaying or printing the actual document which has been loaded using the Tcode CV01n.
Pls help
any suggestions most welcomed.
Regards
Kshitij

Hi Kshitij,
If you want to print originals directly from a DMS transaction (CV02N or CV03N)
it is necessary that you have defined workstation application type "3" (print) for the relevant workstation application and the frontend type in transaction DC30.
Further it is necessary that your Windows folder options are also maintained correctly. Please see the following sample for the direct print of PDF files:
I would recommend to do the following steps:
1. Open Microsoft Explorer
2. Menue: Tools   > Folder options   > File types
3. Select "PDF" and press button "Advanced"
4. There should be a input called "print". If there is no such entry
   please create it by pressing the button "New"
5. Into the action field please insert "print" and to application used..
   write the Acrobat application path (see sample picture attached)
Back to SAP system at transaction DC30:
1. Select "PDF" and then select "define Workstation application"
2. Edit entry: PC    PDF    3 (application type)    %Auto%
3. Save
After creating this settings the pdf document should be printed by
directly. Only the empty Reader (without displaying a file) opens.
Best regards,
Christoph
P.S.: Please award points of the information is useful.

Thumbnail Images in ECC6.0 in DMS

Hi DMS Experts
In ECC6.0 There is functionality in DMS in Transaction Code CV04N
to display thumbnail images .
I have done setting in Workstation apllication and Set Up Workstation Application for Thumbnails (Images).Still I am not able to display images in thumbnails
Apart from this are there any setting to be done.
this functionality works in IDEAS server, but not in Sandbox which I made setting.
Does this work for Easy DMS only.
Pls guide me
With warm regards

Hi Pande,
generally please note that the thumbnail display supports graphics in JPG, GIF or BMP only.
To enable the proper thumbnail display you have to maintain also a thumbnail sequence in the customizing under Set Up Workstation Application for Thumbnails (Images). Here you can determine what type of thumbnail is displayed first for the specific document type. If you want to enable thumbnail view for other
graphic formats you have to implement a specific converter which can be done by BADI implementation. You will find further information in transaction SPRO under
- Cross-Application Components
- Document Management
- General Data
- Business Add-Ins (BAdIs)
--> BAdI: Enhancements for Thumbnails (Images)
I hope this information will help you to enable thumbnail display.
Best regards,
Christoph

DMS: entering document from cProjects

Hi,
When I try to view documents from cProjects the file type is unknown. This goes for e.g. excel. For word it is okay. I think I may not have the correct entries in the customizing activity: Define application, but I do not know what to enter. I specially think of the activity Define application for workstation in network. When I open the documents from Easy DMS it is no problem.
In advance thanks for answering.
Regards Camilla

Hi
Can you explain in more detailed manner.
You can try to have a Workstation application XLS for excel files in DC30
For display(1) enter %auto%
