Document Management System in Oracle EBS

HI All,
does the EBS offer a document management system where I can store, check in/check out, display... documents with meta data and also original files (like a pdf or word file)?
If something like this exists, what are the corresponding objects and is there also an API for it (pl/sql or even better, web service)?
Many thanks,
Konrad

It is possible to store documents/attachments in Oracle EBS database.

This does not look a real "Document Management System" with meta data, version control, status handling and all that stuff, right?
If you are looking for a complete Document Management System, you may consider this product.

I need to integrate third party software to the EBS in so, other products do not help me. But thx anyway!

  • Document management system using oracle text

    i plan to create document management system using oracle text with following features
    1) document comparision
    2) document search
    and more...
    can oracle text be used to display documents of various formats by converting them to HTML. and can search keywords be highlighted in the document.
    please help!

    Have you ever considered doing this in Oracle Application Express (free on top of the Oracle database)? How about something like:
    http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B31036_01/doc/appdev.22/b28839/up_dn_files.htm
    Index the files using the CONTEXT index, and perhaps the docs' meta with it using the Oracle Text MULTI_COLUMN_DATASTORE, and then when you write your query for a report on the documents include a search string.
    I've created a number of APEX-based document management systems and it is quite easy once you get the hang of using this environment. I suggest looking at some of the tutorials/how-to documents and you'll be on your way quickly.
    Start with the upload application. Once you can get your documents in, create a report that shows everything except the document. Verify all of this works correctly.
    Add some "items" to the page for the report, and include them as bind variables in the where clause.
    After that, add your Oracle Text index to the database, and toss in a "text-field" item to the APEX page. Modify your report query, adding the CONTAINS clause, and use the newly created item as a bind variable. There's your keyword search.
    Linking to Oracle Apps is done through API's and may be over database links.
    Hope it helps. Though not a step-by-step how to document, this should point you in the right direction. Get familiar with APEX as that covers most of what you described.

  • Integrated Document Management System

    Hi,
    We are considering Oracle IFS as part of an Integrated Document
    Management system with the following functionality:
    1. Document/Image Capture
    2. Document Storage & Retrieval
    3. Processflow/Workflow
    IFS meets the requirement for the point 2 above. However, we are
    looking for a Image Capture/Processing solution that will
    provide scanning and OCR/ICR functionality. Are you aware of any
    such solution that can easily be integrated with IFS, so that
    scanned documents/images can be directly stored in IFS document
    repository.
    Thanx & Regards,

    Hi,
    We are a Kofax Partner and have used Kofax Ascent Software to
    integrate with iFS. Essentially what we have done is the
    following;
    - We do not use the WebUI interface and have created our own
    user interface with additional functionality for users.
    - As part of the process we needed to scan documents into our
    implementation of iFS and also provide the ability to associate
    Meta Data with each image captured.
    - In our opinion Kofax Ascent software is about the best on the
    market for document/image capture and therefore we use this to
    place the scanned images into a folder in iFS using the SMB
    protocol.
    - To read the images into iFS we have two method, a manual and
    automatic interface.
    - To manually pull the documents into iFS we created page which
    requests certain information from the user and then reads the
    scanned images and places them into the relevant folder in iFS
    programmatically with the associated meta data. This is a Java
    Bean which we have created for that purpose.
    - To automatically pull the documents into iFS we created an
    agent which is time based. At predefined time intervals it goes
    to read the source folder and if anything is in there then it
    will copy the files into the relevant folders in iFS again with
    the associated meta data.
    - To keep things as flexible as possible we have a property file
    which provide certain generic information so that it can be
    adapted to meet various client needs.
    Naturally I do not want to go into the specifics of the Java
    Beans that we have developed as this took a bit of time to get
    right.
    Hope this helps, if not give me a shout,
    Regards,

  • Apex Document Management System

    Hi All,
    Is there a sample demo packaged apps made in Apex for a document management system? Just like the demo ARIA or Bug tracking systems.
    Or is it possible to develop it in Apex? We have lots of Ms words documents, scanned Land Titles, and other important certificates in our office that need
    to be managed and organized. I am thinking of loading them to Apex. We have also lots of project documentations and program codes for version control.
    Can Apex handles also SVN subversioning system?
    Thanks a lot,

    There was, but it has been removed as it "no longer followed recommended coding practices and security". However it appears that these recommendations on coding practices and security do not apply in China as the packaged applications are still available from Oracle's Chinese site.
    @Oracle: When are sample packaged applications returning. These apps are out there and (if Arie's comments are correct regarding what are now perceived to be outdated about them) they still constitute a largely useful resource. Why not make them officially available again through the relevant previous version archives?

  • Requirements for a document management system

    We are planning to implement a document management system Oracle Application Server. Here are the high-level requirements:
    · High availability (24x7)
    · 3000 users, worldwide, on WAN
    · 600 GB of documents
    · Workflow
    · Alerts e-mailed on document adds/updated, for workflow
    · Search of document titles, properties, keywords, content
    · Daily backup of new/updated documents
    In regards to Oracle Application Server (Portal), can someone provide me the following information:
    1. What Oracle AS server architecture would we need to handle the above requirements?
    2. What is the Oracle recommended method of scaling up our current Oracle Portal instance in regard to:
    a. Capacity
    b. Achieving 24x7 availability
    3. When documents are stored via an Item upload in Oracle Portal, are they stored in the database or as the actual file?
    Thanks a lot,
    Lpatnaik

    Lot of this features are already implemented in Oracle Portal, Collaboration Suit and Oracle Content Management SDK.

    Generally this products stores documents in database BLOB field.
    I personally don't like this approach.
    We developed a media library that stores the files in filessystem, but the metadata is in database. The database references to the file in filesystem with a BFile field
    http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14200/sql_elements001.htm#i54873
    The system is very fast so I think it was a good decision to store the media this way.
    If you use this approach you have to create database and filessystem backup also.
    Filessystem backup is much faster and there are several very good tools to make an incremental backup.
    If you store media in a database you can use Oracle Media types:

  • Setting up a Document management system in SharePoint 2013

    Hello All,
    I have come across a scenario where Customer needs a Document management system for their organization.
    They want to keep the documents of different departments like sales, HR,Finace in corresponding folders and want to include a workflow for approval of the Documents. Also, Documents related to particular department can be modified or added by users in that
    department.
    I thought of creating a seperate site collection for this purpose & document libraries of each department, setting up the permission on document library level. Is this a correct approach?
    I am new to Enterprise content management system of sharepoint. Can anybody give me a guidance on this how to get started.
    Regards

    Creating separate site collection for each department will help you scale and grow better and easier to group SharePoint sites together.
    Refer to the following articles which will give you an idea about the plan you should do before building a Document management system

  • How to install EASY DMS (Document Management System) setup in windows 7

    Dear Experts,
    Recently we have started a project to establish document management system in SAP. So, i have downloaded easydms7.1sp04 from the servicemarketplace service.sap.com/swdc and setup is successfully installed in windows Xp and unable to install successfully in windows 7.
    The SAP is upgraded in our company to release ERP6 EHP6.
    In windows Xp the DMS is accessing to all the systems in the landscape( DEV, QAS, PRD).
    But, In windows 7 it is only accessing the production system and if creating manually the systems prompting the error about RFC and hosts in windows 7.

    Hi Sir,
    As mentioned earlier it is prompting me the error
    Logon Failed (RFC_ERROR_LOGON_FAILURE)
    Name or Password is incorrect (repeat logon)
    But it is accessing only the production system in windows 7 but not all the 3 systems which are in landscape. I dont know how can it proceed to logon to the production system only with out other systems .
    Thanks in advance
    Regards,

  • Document Management System

    i want to write a Document Management System to read the content of the MS Word file and convert it to the PDF file using java.
    Does any java api can do this??
    Thank You

    There are a number of solutions, none of which, unfortunately, are trivial:
    In decreasing scale of difficulty:
    a) Hand-code the entire solution. PDF and MS DOC are both well documented formats.
    I wouldnt recommend you try this.
    b) Use ready-made open source libraries:
    Other than the ones mentioned earlier, there is an Apache Libraray (POI ?) which can be used for reading and writing streamed OLE objects (which is what a word doc is)
    c) Use the Java-Activex bridge and use mature COM/Activex components
    WinWord itself is an Activex component. There are loads of mature Activex components that can spew out PDF.
    d) If platform is not an issue, use C# or VB.NET
    I'll probably get flamed for this.
    I am not a .NET advocate usually, but in this particular case you should be able to complete your task with least effort by using mature Activex libraries and one of the .NET languages.

    hi
    try with this
    SAP DMS - Document Management System
    SAP DMS are for storing documents such as CAD drawings, Materials pictures etc.
    With the document management system, users will be able to view the documents with ease within their SAP systems.
    Installing the SAP DMS requires a little bit of planning on how you want to do it.
    You have to give a little thoughts to stuff such as :-
    1.  The total numbers of documents that will be store monthly.
    2.  The average file size of each documents.
    3.  The capacity of your present R/3 system.
    4.  Your present network bandwidth.
    5.   Document Archiving Strategy.
    6.   Backup and Recovery Plan.
    Additional purchasing of hardware are required, especially if you have large amount of documents to stored.
    With this in mind, you can then decide on how you want to do it.
    You can do this in a few ways :-
    1.  Import the documents into the R/3 system.
    2.  Use an external document server.
    3.  Have a dedicated PCs where all the documents are stored.
    Most companies that intend to used DMS will opt for Option 2 as they does not want to overstretch the R/3 database.
    Options 1 requires you to setup the conversion interface. 
    The conversion interface allows R/3 to automatically covert your files and import it into the R/3 database.
    Here is a simple example of storing documents into your PCs, just to have a feel how the SAP DMS works:-
    For those using Citrix, you have to set this at the Citrix Server where the SAPGUI is located.
    Configure SM30 - V_TDWE_C1
    Put this command in your autoexec.bat
    SET HOSTNAME=PC1234
    Restart your pc.
    You can create/manage your documents in transaction code CV01N / CV02N
    Assigning Documents to a Material Master Record
    Access a material master record in Create or Change mode, and select Basic Data. 
    To create links to documents, choose Additional data -> Document data.
    The Link to Documents dialog box appears.
    Assign one or more documents to the material. 
    If you do not know what the document number is, you can search for it using the search help or by choosing Find document.
    When assigning a document to a material, you have the following options:
    1. Viewing the document by choosing it in the Link to Documents dialog box.
    2. Viewing any originals of the document by positioning the cursor on the document and 
       choosing Display originals in the Link to Documents dialog box.
    To return to the Basic Data screen, choose Continue.
    Save your data. 
    all the best
