Document Distribution - Confirming Receipt

Hi All,
I have setup document distribution to use both RML & INT, with both distribution types requiring confirmation of reciepts.
When distributing via RML the distribution log shows status 'WR' - waiting receipt
When distributing via INT the distribution log shows status 'OK'
Question:
Why does distribution type INT not show status 'WR' - waiting receipt? Users cannot confirm receipt if the status is 'OK'
Please help
Thanks Neil

Hi Christoph,
The tick on the distribution type INT was not ticked & only the confirmation tick was ticked in the Recipient List.
This has been solved
Regards,
Neil

  • Document Distribution Question for Confirm Receipt Workflow

    Hi all,
    If I do a document distribution for recipient list (CVI7) with several users as recipients of the document, all of the workflows with links back to the dist log for confirming receipts go to the person who initiated the distributions.  Is there any method of directing these workflows directly to the users specified in the recipient list?
    Thanks in advance
    Bill Pickett

    Hi
    In stndard sap it is not possible.It might be done by changing the recipient in the workflow. So consult a workflow person for this.

  • Confirm Receipt - in Document Disribution

    Hi All
    In Doc Distribution, when I give Confirm receipt option, it asks to give Return Date..
    When I distribute the documents, the recipient gets a link to "Confirm Receipt"..
    But the originator of the DIR doesn't receive any mail stating the Confirm Receipt of the recipient.. If that is not avaiable, wat is the functionality of "Confirming Receipts"
    Can someone explain "Confirm Receipt" function and also about Return Date..???
    Regards
    Aby

    Hi Aby
    The recipient needn't do the confirm receipt in cvi9/distribution log. He can just tell the person who initiated the distribution, or the distribution point, by phone/email and then the concerned person can do the confirm receipt in the distribution log the part order is OK (Distribution completed successfully set as green).
    This is the scenario given in 
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_47x200/helpdata/en/c1/1c249243c711d1893e0000e8323c4f/frameset.htm
    in that distribution log->confirming receipt tab you will find the detail information.

  • Document distribution Status

    Hi All,
    I am new in SAP and I am for the moment trying to learn about document distribution in DMS.
    I wonder what I should do to get the Status for my distribution order to OK?
    For the moment the Status alway stays at PC, depending how I distribute the Status has been AS nad BD before staying at PC.
    In my example I have distributed via Recipient List and succesfully received the document with its originals to an email.
    I have tried both confirm receipt/ no confirmation and also changed other things.
    Thanks in advance
    Mikael

    Hello,
    Good day!
    I was wondering if you could help me with my problem regarding document distribution status. I would like to add a new external address in the recipient list. I was able to maintain the address in SOAD and SOCP however the status stays at BD for the new external address that I maintained. For the rest of the recipients, it was processed successfully (email was sent and a form was printed).
    Can you tell why is it not working or give your inputs on what to check?
    Thanks and kind regards,
    Ivy

  • Document Distribution Context

    Hi all,
    Can anyone give their perspective on the context field used on document distribution recipient lists?  I understand it controls the basic items of Read Receipt, Dist Immediately, and Confirm Output, but I would like to know if anyone is using it for additional functionality.
    I want to be able to search for groups of doc distributions for certain work groups or possible projects being worked at this work location.  In standard search help for doc dist log, there does not seem to be anything that allows this sort of group search.  The limitation I see with this is eliminating certain recipient lists that are not defined with this exact context.
    Please give me some feedback.
    Thanks,
    Bill

    Hi Bill
    Let me give you an example.
    Whenever a Document is Released in design process it is sent to Particular Group of people such as Head Engineering, Procurement Departemnt, To Project Manger who is working on Project.
    So whenever Document is released the Context is said to be Released for Project.
    If New Version is Created the Context can be New Version.
    SO its Basically tells the Document Receiver for what purpose this document is sent to him or what Latest information about document or Inform him latest progress on the document.
    SO in my Project I used in following way.
    I implemented this scenario for an Engineering and Construction company.
    I created the Context AS Built Drawing  and Created Receipent List which contained Names of Project Manager, HOD Design, Erection Engineer.I Assigned this Context to receipent List.
    So whenever I choose this context the document was sent to these people only.
    Hope I have answerd your question.
    With Regards

  • Document Distribution Link to MS Outlook

    Hi All,
    I have a client using document distribution. The actual document distribution seems to be working fine when messages are sent to the SAP Inbox. However when the messages are forwarded to MS outlook - the  links to confirm receipt change to text files.
    We are trying to achieve a link from MS Outlook that will enable the user to log into SAP from the email message.
    Any ideas what to change?
    Thanks, Neil

    Hi,
    can you redescribe the following for me:
    This happens when you have missed out on defining the Communication/Distribution Type for e-mail. This can achieved as follows:
    DIR > Document > Document Distribution > Recipient > User Maintainence > Choose the communication method as INT (e-mail without URL) or HTP (e-mail without URL) and provide the remaining details > Save.
    Where can I find the above path/menu: DIR->Document.......
    Thanks

  • Email document distribution PDF attachment conversion error

    I have configured document distribution via emai with an attachment. My DMS documents have a single PDF original attachment.
    The email transmits fine through SAPConnect, however when I open the attachment Adobe tells me the file cannot be opened, and is corrupt.
    The issue seems to be in SAPConnect conversion, converting BIN to PDF. Any suggestions on the conversion function module or sample code for a fm to do the conversion are appreciated.

    Hi,
    regarding the information with the BIN extension I would kindly ask you
    to implement the SAP note 873597.                                                                               
    Further please check the following settings which helped to solve      
    such issue in the past successfully:                                                                               
    1. Go to transaction : FILE                                            
    2. Select DOCUMENT_DISTRIBUTION                                        
    3. Double click on "Syntax group definition"                           
    4. You will find the file length defined for "WINDOWS NT               
    5. Change the length value to 70.                                      
    6. Also for As/400 change the length to 40.

  • DMS Document Distribution Problem Pls, Help Will be appreciated

    When executing T-Code CVI8(Document Distribution), there is a system message that the order was successfully created. But when we looked at the distribution log using T-Code CVI9, the status of the document remains as SY and the processing of the distribution stops. We already finished the settings for document distribution and still this error persists. What could have been wrong? Pls advice.

    Hi Athol,
    i have checked the workflow config accordingly,
    workflow templates 20000104 and 20000137. are active.
    a. 20000104 BUS1082 x 2 (Initiated and Resend)
    b. 20000137 BUS1082002 x 1 (Resend)
    But the Release status for these templates is NOT DEFINED, should it be RELEASED & the container tab for 20000104 shows a warning icon(Mandatary import parameter)on partial order & intial value not set & same for 20000137 shows warning icon on distribution order package & initial value not set.
    what does this mean, is there any setting required for this?
    2. Transaction SWU3 – ensure that all has been generated (activated). Pay special attention to Maintain Runtime Environment -> Configure RFC destination.
    I HAVE checked the above all are active except Configure RFC destination, what is the setting required for the same.
    the 3, 4,& 5 setting what u have suggested are ok,i have checked them.
    Please suggest for the 1 & 2 points.
    thanks in advance.

  • Error in SAP standard workflow ddoStart - Start document distribution

    Hi all,
    I'm trying to use the document distribution but i'm failing completely. After doing what i think is the necessary config (setting all relevant tasks to general task should be all), i try to distribute. I create a list, selects people and click go.
    When checking the log for the distribution later on, all workflows generated hang in the same place - namely the case branch before "check document distribution".  Further on, the "check distribution order" task does have three potential outcomes after calling the business objects corresponding method. The problem is that the method "check" of bus1082 (doc. dist. order) does not return a check value as a parameter, even though it has a result internally.
    I suspec i'm missing something here, but the wf still bombs out.
    Tips and tricks guys?
    Espen

    HI all,
    Problem is identified and a solution is found. THe businesss object's methods for distribution order did not have the flag for result parameter ticked. Opening up the standard SAP objects, tick the box and voila - it works.
    Still puzzles me how SAP did release this. Didnt they test?

  • Accounting Document after Goods Receipt.

    Hi,
    I have put to condition types ZVAT & ZBTT. I dont want this to be shown in the accounting document after goods receipt. It should show only Inventory account & GR/IR clearing account. Right now ZVAt & ZBTT has accounts whose posting keys are 40 & 50 ie debit & credit. what settings need to be done so that the ZVAt & ZBTT accounts do not come in the accounting document after GRN.
    Thanks
    John

    Hi,
    How should it happen that without creating accounting socuments while posting GRN, GR/IR clearing & inventory documents are hit?
    If the posting to accounting document at GRN is done, then only GR/IR clearing account will get updated.
    If posting to accounting document at GRN is done, then only Inventory posting can be updated.
    I think you shold check the logical step first.

  • Error  no receipient found in document distribution

    hi,

    when executing document distribution in CVi7
    Kindly let me know whether it is basis or workflow related issue,
    regards

    Hi Kokila,
    one possible reason can be a missing flag in TA SO16. Please check
    that the flag 'Organizational units' (under tab 'Adressing') is set and
    that no sending restrictions are defined under tab 'Send'.

  • Document Distribution with attached documents coming across in BIN format

    Hello all,
    I have 3 dist types defined in the system.  RML, RMA, and INT
    RMA sends to SAP Office and includes a link to the document defined in DMS and seems to work correctly.
    RML sends the document to SAP Office as an attachment but the attached documents always is in BIN format and cannot be opened by the application.
    INT sends to my external email but has the same problem as above, the attachment is always in a BIN format and cannot be opened.
    This works the same with several different applications in DMS, Word, Excel, Text Files, etc.
    Can anyone give me an idea what I may be missing in config that is keeping this from working correctly.  We are running SAP ECC 6.0
    Thanks,
    Bill

    Hi Bill,
    Please check the following customizing in your system:
    1) Please check you have maintained suitable length of syntax group for
    Windows NT. Please maintain it more than 20.
    Please proceed as follows to correct this entry:
    Run the tcode SPRO
    Implementation Guide for R/3 Customizing (IMG)
    Cross-Application Components
      Document Management System
       Document Distribution
        General Settings
         Platform-Independent File Names
          Maintain file names and file paths across all clients
           Syntax group definition
    2) Please check the 'File processing' value for distribution type 'INT'.
    Please set it as '2'.
    Further please check note 355048 and as mentioned your settings in transaction DC30 for the workstation applications.

  • DMS-Document Distribution Setup

    Hello ,
    I would appreciate if any one can give me some idea's on config part of Document Distribution in Document management system.
    I maintained recipeint list and in CVI8 i started document distribution which gave me back an internal order number later i went to CVI9 to execute the initial order number which took me to Distribution log screen .
    There i get message like <u><b>Not assigned to distr. order package</b>,</u>i selected the Box highlighted pertiaing to that document and i executed for document distribution i received a message like <u><b>Only partial orders with status AS, MA, ER, WO, or WR are allowed</b></u>.
