  • First Java Project - Document Management and Workflow

    We are about to embark on our first java project around document management and workflow.
    I would be interested to know how others have approached similar projects – Open Source applications or other tools/APIs.
    It would also be good to know of any issues encountered along the way.
    Thanks,

  • Project Document Management for Primavera?

    Hi,
    I made some test with Oracle UCM trying to evaluate if it could be suitable to be used as a Document Management for Projects. My perception after these (short) tests is that UCM seems to be too generalist and too complex to be used in conjunction with Primavera Software: it seems to me that it could bring to an iceberg, being the out of water part quite smaller than the underwater architecture.
    I would know if there are some other opinions or guidelines to use UCM or some other Oracle Software with Primavera.
    Thanks

    I update the post to add some other result. I configured the Content Repository (using JackRabbit) and the Workflow Repository; I saw that there is an option to configure the AutoVue to be accessed by P6 Web.
    I didn't find a way to configure the access to JR repository from the PM Client Application. The result is that the WP&Docs Documents are visible from P6 Web in another tab , near the documents in the repository while this repository files are not accessible (Am I right?) from the PM client application.
    In my honest opinion, getting access to the repository if still not possible, from the PM client should have an highest priority than enlarging options for P6 Web.
    Thanks

  • Seeking a document management and file sharing solution for an online client portal

    Hi
    Late last year our developers created a Member’s Portal for a client’s website (built with WordPress) enabling Members to have a secure area for a discussion forum and crucially, secure
    document storage and access, and file-sharing. The WordPress plugin chosen for the Portal was WP-Client.
    We have a problem though and I wonder if you or anyone can help?
    Basically, the solution was supposed to be like Dropbox or Google Drive but within the Portal but with slight differences. The problem is that the current solution we have isn’t like either
    and has various flaws which make it unpopular with most members. It uses free software called kcfinder – see
    http://kcfinder.sunhater.com/ as the basis for the file management systems.
    So we are seeking to change the file management system. This system must do the following:
    It’s got to be intuitive e.g. the action open or download must be ‘typical’ (it is not so in kcfinder you have to right click to download for instance
    You must be able open an Office document (especially Word, Excel and Powerpoint) online in situ within the portal. Currently in kcfinder you have to download it. 
     You must be able to edit it online. Currently you have to download it, open it, edit it, re-upload it and overwrite it.
    The client uses Sharepoint (I think that’s part of MS Office 365) and wants to be able to I think drag docs from there straight into the Portal file management system (I think at the moment they have to download a file from Sharepoint to their hard drive
    and then upload to kcfinder.
    We are currently investigating using a WP plugin for Google Drive
    https://wp-glogin.com/drive/ and Google Apps for work to create some sort of file management system that meets the requirements.
    However having loaded the plugin, the developer has found that two issues remain that so far defeat us:
    Firstly, and this seems to be applicable to using Google Drive outside the portal as well as in it - you can’t edit Word docs online in Google Drive without creating a Google Doc. This means we get duplicate docs which we don’t want – and they’re in
    the wrong format. We want Word and no duplication. The members/users don’t have time to delete and change the format back to Word. I guess the same applies to other Office docs.
    Second, apparently you can’t create a new folder in Google Drive in the portal.
    So my question for this forum is really what can you suggest, either as a fix to the Google Drive solution or is there a totally different plugin or set up we can use? Ideally it should
    be Office-based or friendly since most of our users use Microsoft Office.
    The other proviso is that it must be affordable. We/client cannot afford the $10 per user per month that some systems charge. The attractiveness of the Google option is not only the wide
    use of Google Docs (notwithstanding the fact that you can't open Word in GD instead it creates a duplicate in GD) but the fact that the plugin is cheap.
    Thanks in anticipation. 

    Hi,
    Why don't you take a look at Office Web App server which provides browser-based file viewing and editing services for Office files:
    https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj219435.aspx
    It can be integrated with your customized website, and provide the ability to online view/editing Office documents..
    Hope it helps.

  • Conceptual questions with document management and Apex:

    Hello Everyone,
    I have reviewed or participated in thread discussions focusing primarily on subject matters concerning text editors, spellcheckers and document printing. The reason for this is due to our client requesting the creation of a basic centralized document management system that will enable users to create, edit and print technical documents in a database centric web-based environment. The caveat is that the client would like the same basic functionality that users get from MS Word. I know about FCKeditor or TinyMCE and their associated spellcheckers. What concerns me is that I have not found a possible plug-in to handle tracking changes, no one wants to re-read a large multiple page document again when all they would rather do is just view the changes. I know there are possible database schemas that might facilitate this type of functionality; I am just hoping it is more of a plug-in function.
    So with all that being said my dilemma is how to approach the design of such an application using Apex, if that is possible. Some questions I have are:
    1. Do design the application where you have a text field that contains the entire document, which could be as many as 25 or more pages?
    2. Or do you break down the document in to multiple text fields and then assimilate them in to a single multi page document when printing?
    3. Would you store the document data using XML under condition 1, 2, both or not at all?
    4. What types of data tables might exist, such as tables for document templates, work-in-process and final documents or something else?
    I know there are a lot of other concepts/questions to consider and a large part of the design approach would be based on client requirements. My goal here is to gather different basic conceptual approaches, from forum members, in order to help facilitate a starting point for the project.
    By the way I have seen on the Apex Latest Forum Poll, for quite sometime, where Document Management is an application that people would like to see developed. Can anyone from the Apex-team tell me if it is in the works and if so, when?
    Thanks, in advance, for any suggestions.
    Kyle

    Hey Chet,
    Thanks for the response; actually I had visited the sample package apps. site awhile back and did not realize more had been added. My problem is that I use Apex 2.1 and not 2.2, so unless there is a way to load the package apps. to the Oracle hosted site, I won't be able to review there design. It would be nice if Oracle tied these package apps. to their demonstration applications sample downloads function in Apex.
    As for storing each line of the document in a single record, this was thought of as an initial approach. A concern by the team was how to program the logic to identify specific changed text in say a 5 sentence paragraph and how large the table would become if recording it line by line.
    It is still a good approach to consider and we appreciate the input.
    Thanks
    Kyle

  • Comparision between SAP Easy Document Management and MOSS2007

    Hi,
    Could anyone please guide what are the differet features available in SAP EASY DOCUMENT MANAGEMENT solution which are not present in MOSS2007.
    I know both are very good and very robust solutions but i want to know which one is having better qualities.
    Please guide.
    Thanks and Regards

    hi,
    Acually speeking yes all product have their own advantage and dis advantages also. but alsways but as consultant, we could refeiring Edms, coz,
    The types of documents range from "documents" in proprietary SAP format typically stored in the SAP database (such as financial documents, purchase orders, closed master records) to documents usually created, viewed and/or edited by applications other than SAP, though they may have some significance or bearing on business processes within the SAP system
    itself (for example, technical drawings referenced from bill of materials stored in the SAP database).
    Also, we could use external content server to store enormose data  with out affecting the performance. also her we could extend[scale up] Content server.
    this is like similar to Windows, user need not know full SAP. even though can work EDMS.
    By using EDMS, we can integrate to Logisic  [SAP] copmonents.
    Also by Interfacing with, third party applction software like Acad, UG, Lous note........etc

  • Document Management and Workflow Packages

    Hello SAP Community,
    My company is considering a document management solution integrated with a work flow package in regards to automating and providing visibility into our entire account payable process. I was wondering if anyone out there has implemented such a solution, how long it took to implement and what the licensing costs were. I am aware of the many packages out there available from SAP certified partners, and I was just wondering if anyone could give me real world insight into their experience with implementing a document management / work flow solution.

  • Compare Oracle Project Management and Primavera

    Hi All,
    We are using Primavera today and it is not integrated to Oracle.
    We are also currently implementing Oracle Projects Management (R12.1.3) and trying to evaluate if Primavera can be replaced by Projects Management. Based upon my little experience with Primavera - I see some advantages of Primavera over Projects Management e.g.
    a. Primavera is more user friendly than Oracle Projects Management.
    Primavera: easy to create workplan; configurable views; generate reports with gantt charts
    b. Primavera has scheduling engine to derive schedules based upon dates/duration/logic while Project Managment does not have it.
    c. Gantt charts are better in Primavera than Oracle Projects Management.
    Has anyone also done similar kind of analysis and evaluated the need of Primavera integration with Oracle Projects Management? I would appreciate if you can share your inputs.
    Thanks,
    Nitin

    Hi,
    I have used both the product. For project management i would suggest to use primavera for the same reason u mentioned.
    the only disadvanage in primavera is it is not integrated with ERP.
    Now oracle provide a AIA PIP integration package to integrate Primavera with oracle Projects(Limited integration). Use primaver for Project managment and oracle for Project Costing and Billing

  • SharePoint 2010 - Document Management and Security Setup Recommendations

    Greetings All!
    I have a requirement where the business would like to manage various files.  The setup looks like this:
    User1
    ----------->User2
    ----------->User3
    -------------------->User4
    -------------------->User5
    Where User1 has permission to see everything that is their files and everything below their level.   The lower levels cannot see files above them.  I hope this makes sense.
    Right now we are using folder level permissions, breaking inheritance, and then explicitly assigning permissions - this could turn into an admin nightmare.
    What other options or recommendations do you have?
    Best Regards!
    CodeYankee

    Hello,
    I would suggest to create SharePoint user groups with required permission levels and add users to those groups. I think you will need to break inheritance in order to achieve your objectives but it would be easier to manage with SharePoint users groups.
    Hope this helps!
    Thanks!

    This worked for me:
    1) I put web service in transport request in SPRO -> CRM -> UI FRAMEWORK -> UI FRAMEWORK DEFINITION -> WEB SERVICES -> WEB SERVICES TOOL: TRANSPORT WEB SERVICE OBJECTS
    2) Then I transported this request.
    3) Then you have to wait a few minutes that the WEB service gets available. Then I went to WSCONFIG and choosed my WEB service and clicked on button NEW and then SAVE.

  • Printing documents - document management

    Hi,
    I have created a word document (stored in document management) and linked to customer master and material master.
    Our requirement is this word document needs to be printed when a user prints Bill of Lading document from delivery note. How to print a document (stored in the document management) that was linked to a customer or material master. In the customer master or in the material master or in CV02N, I tried to print the document but it is not printing. It just opens in a word document.
    Your help is appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Shiva.

    Hi Christoph Hopf,
    Thank you very much for your response. I have already maintained an entry for print (type 3) in DC30 and assigned path and program name as C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11\WINWORD.exe %f
    Per your suggestions, I checked Tools -> folder options -> File types -> DOC -> Advanced  and I could find an entry for "Print".
    When I try to print the document from CV02N using print button, the application is opening in a word document, but it is not printing. I checked my system and a defualt printer is set-up. Should I need to tell in SAP configuration as LOCL printer?
    Also my requirement is when I print BILL OF LADING documents from deliveries, the documents associated with material object, customer object and customer material objects pertaining to the delivery need to be printed.
    Can I use the STAT output condition type to acheieve this? I could see messages in the CV02N, but it is not highlighted. I maintained STAT records (mail output) but still the messages is not highlighted in CV02N.
    I appreciate your help.
    With regards,

  • Document Managment - Printing MS Office Documents

    I am using Document Management and want to distribute documents based on an BOR Object Event trigger.  The documents are MS Office documents such as Word / Excel.  My requirement is to print the documents to the default printer of the user who triggered the event.  I am able to trigger the distribution but the result is a SAP mail with the documents attached but I want to actually output the attachments WORD / EXCEL attachments automatically to the printer. Any help would be appreciated.

    This is a problem with Microsoft office documents that's been going on for years. If you Google around enough, you'll find people complaining about it going back to Office 2004. I've been looking into it for a couple of years for a client who uses Leopard and office 2004. Possible solutions include: creating an invisible folder at the root level of the SharePoint called “TemporaryItems” and using Terminal to give it the proper permissions; changing all of the numeric user IDs away from 501 and 502 and using very large unique numbers instead; and changing the owner of the share point on the server to something called NETWORK SERVICE (it's unclear to me if this will work on a Mac server or only Windows).
    I have applied the TemporaryItems folder solution, and it did solve the problem for a number of months. But it just came back with a vengeance. So here I am, googling around again. I can tell you this problem occurs, with some variations, in versions of Office from 2004 through 2011, and Mac operating systems from Tiger through Snow Leopard. It's rather mind-boggling that this has never been dealt with.
    Here are some links for your perusing pleasure:

    http://hintsforums.macworld.com/archive/index.php/t-12077.html
    You can find lots and lots of people online complaining about this. Just spend some time searching. In my case, my clients are only using two computers, one of which is using native filesharing, so it's not even a full-on server situation.
