Document Distribution Workflow Error

Dear Expert,
After Up gradation from 4.7e to ECC 6.0 in new system we are facing problem in Documents Distribution, after executing Tr. Code CVI8 system generates message Initial order XXX has been successfully created
But, the problem is, in tr. code SBWP document is not received in recipient ID and in distribution log(CVI9) document is shown with yellow flag & "PC" status (i.e. Package crated successfully).
Actually we are maintaining same configuration in both system ECC 6.0 & 4 .7e but its working fine for 4.7e system not for ECC 6.0. Whereas Workflow log gives message "You have not entered a distribution order package"
I already checked
1) Re-activate the following workflows in transaction SWDD: WS20000104 & WS20000137
2) In Tr. code SWU3, Automated workflow customization
3) Activated Even Linkage Type
4) In Tr. Code SWE3 Instances for Event Linkage.
Any suggestions.....Thanks in advance...

Hi Sam,
I have experienced a simliar problem. I'm trying my best to remember how it was resolved.
I think the problem we had was to do with the Context.
1.It had not been defined
2. It was not assigned to an event
Hope this helps.

Document Distribution workflow

I have document distribution workflow WS20000104 that is giving me
problems. It is failing on the Generate Distribution Order Package
Step. The Error is that no recipient was supplied.I think the
Recipient is contained in the Message Container. but this is not
passed into the workflow from the event. I supply the recipients on
the distribution screen
The event container on binding to the workflow container, does not
have the message object.
How can I pass the Recipients to the Workflow.

Hi,
As Jayanthi said, why dont you check your EVENT LINKAGE and BINDING.
Make sure that your Object's container element - DISORDER is being binded to EVT_OBJECT.
Yah,Message object is something that gets generated after the execution of Standard Task TS20000297(BUS1082002-GENERATE). So when this step fails, this Message container never gets populated.
So Message Object has nothing to do with EVENT BINDING.
May be, you can test the BOR BUS1082002 manually passing the same data and figure out the problem by debugging.
Hope this helps.

Document Distribution DMS, problem with standard workflow WS20000104

Hi,
In our document distribution process we stacked with the problem, when we run the document distribution (via tcode CVI8) we got the error of workflow WS20000104. After some search at SCN we found that there is the similar issue, described in the thread: Document distribution workflow in error. Solution which was offered and marked as worked is to enable/activate Result Parameter check box, but in our case this check box is disabled and when we try to edit the BOR in order to activate Result Parameter check box the system asked to input Access Code.
Is there any way (note) to enable this check box without access code?
Thanks.

Hi, Deepak Kori
In transaction SWU3 there is the following situation:
Maintain Runtime Environment is completely green, including sub-categories;
Maintain Definition Environment is red because of Check Entries from HR Control Tables;
Maintain Additional Settings and Services is red because of Maintain Web Server;
Classify Tasks as General is completely green, including sub-categories;
Guided Procedures is red because of Maintain Guided Procedures Gateway.
Could you, please, explain what do you mean under «workflow settings are activated», how parameters described above are related to workflow and may be related to our problem?
If described situation can be assumed as activated, what should we do now? Otherwise, how to make these settings to be activated?
Thanks.

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?

Error no receipient found in document distribution

hi,
i'm getting error no receipient found in document distribution,
when executing document distribution in CVi7
Kindly let me know whether it is basis or workflow related issue,
regards
kokila

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'.

Non PO Invoice Workflow - Error while Posting Document

Hi Experts
Hope I am posting this in the right forum as I am new to SDN!
We have customized a multi-level non PO invoice workflow which triggers at the time of clicking 'Save as Completed' in tcode FV60.
It has been configured to automatically post the document once it is approved at all the required levels. However, the document cannot be posted even after it receives all levels of approval. The status shows as 'Complete' but the error message shown is 'No Amount Authorization for Customer/Vendor in Company Code' in the workflow screen (MSGID F5, MSGNO 155).
Now as I understand, this is the error for maintenance of user ID in tolerance groups. However, all user IDs have already been maintained and no matter who parks the document, the same error appears in the workflow screen.
We have no idea whether this is happening due to some missing config from FI side or WF side.
Regards

Hi
Go to Tcode: OBA3 Assign tolerance group under your company code and give all limits for each group. If you done this one your properly your problem should solve.

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.

Error in FI Document Parking Workflow

Hi Workflow Experts,
                               I have a FI document parking Workflow scenario which is 2 level release that is if the amount is upto 100000 first person will release if it's more than that the CEO that is the second user has to release.
For this i have activated the main workflow WS10000051 and for two level release i have activated the sub workflows WS10000052 for first level release and WS10000053 for secondlevel release.
I have also done the Release strategy configuration in SPRO such as
1) Workflow Variance
2) company Code
3) Approval Group
4) Approval path
5) Release group
6) Release approvers
in the following SPRO steps
1) Create Workflow Variant for Parking Document
2) Define Entry Screens for Parking Document
3) Assign Compaany Code to a Workflow variant for Parking Documents
4) Define Release Approval Groups for Parking Documents
5) Define Release Approval Path for Parking Doc
6) Assign Release Approval Path for Parking Documents
7) Assign Release Approval Procedure for Parking Doc
8) Define Users with Release Authorization for Parking Document. ( I have assigned the Position of CEO created in HR to this)
Now when the document is parked it throws the error
Error in workflow Customizing for document parking (tranasction OBWE) and it stops in the step Determining Sub Workflow.
Has anyone come across this issue.Please guide me in resolving in this issue, i am not able to identify whether this error is happening in workflow or due to some missed entries in SPRO settings of FI.
Regards,
Hari

Hi,
Are there any special settings for SUBWORKFLOWS
There is no Special Setting for Sub Workflow.
Only error which i get in my inbox is
Please repair the suspended workflow
1) Once you get the Error, open a new session goto T.code SU53 and see any authorization issue
    If Yes, send the screen shot to Basis Team to get the authorization.
2) If Authorization is fine, Check the binding for that Workitem Regenerate and Test it . Also Check the Workflow log and see which step error is showing, then see the Step history comments.   .

Std workflow for document distribution.

Hi Gurus,
Scenario is I donot have a workflow resource for customization. I need to send the document for Approval to a list of 4 Approvers after I set the status to "For Approval". Can we achieve it through document distribution with any std workflow avalaible which can be triggered after I set the status to " For Approval"?
Thanks
Pad

Hi Sri,
Thanks for the reply. I had the Workflow WS 20000104 inserted at the " For Approval " status. Then I created a new DIR and before setting this status I created the receipient list with my user Id . After I set the status "For Approval" I cannot see any work item in SBWP. Am I missing any step?
If in case its because of the Workflow linkage inactive, could any of the Workflow experts guide me
on how to do that.
Thanks,
Paddy

Document Management distribution workflow

I have activated the document management distribution workflow. When I start the documenent distibution the workflow is not started. When I go back to check the started of the workflow in spro it will be deactivated.
How can I activated it permanently or is there some configuration that need tobe done?
Points will be awarded.

Hie Sreecharan. It is not working. The workflow is continuously being deactivated.
I am activating it in spro, under 'Perform task-specific Customizing'. Under CA, I go to Document Management and click on Activate Event Linking.
I expand WS20000104 and click on deactivate and it displays a green buttonthat it is activated.I then click on the properties of the event linkage button. and followed your instructions. The save button will be disabled. When I close the dialog box, on re-opening it, it would have defaulted to 'System presetting'.

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.
Best regards,

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.

Explode document distribution list / organisational unit

I have configured document distribution. I am able to send mails through document distribution. However, I want to send mail to a group of users. Hence I have created an organisational unit with different positions and I have captured the e-mail addresses of the users in the respective positions. However when I capture the organisational unit as a recipient the following error message appears " Orginizational unit/distribution list <Scroll Approver> contains no
recipients". Also I am not able to explode the organisatinal unit.
Please advise.

Hello Sudha,
currently i have the same problem (i want to send e-mails to an organizational unit). Did you solve the problem?
Thanks and Regards,
Christian

Document Distribution Log Status

HI All,
In CVI9 I can set a document distribution status to Ignore but I cannot find anywhere in the log that it records who set that status and when. Does anyone know if there is a background table where this information is stored so I can write a query to determine who set this status.
Thanks,
Bill

Hi Bill,
in the standard I think there is only the 'Log' and 'Workflow' button which enables you to get further information about how the distrbution was processed. However here the user and time of the change is not displayed.
Best regards,

Document Distribution for External Mails ids

Dear Expert Consultants,
I would like to know how to send Docuemnts as link from Document Distribution to external Mails. Also i want to know Mass printing functionality in DMS Documents.
Regards,
Deviprasad.P

Hi,
In the standard case you need to folow below procedure
1. Use TC SOCP to create external recipients. you may need BASIS help in this.
2. Create recipient list using TC CVI1.
2. Assign the documents to be distributed to this list. Document should be created before this step.
3. Assign External recipients to this list.
4. Distribute the document using CVI8.
5. TC CVI9 will help you to know the status of distribution.
Most important factor is that your SAP standard workflow which drives the distribution to external mail ids should be working. Please contact BASIS team if it has any problem. Without this distribution is not possible.
Hope it will help you.

Atul
