Easy DMS | characteristic value an descriptions

Hi experts,
In cv01, cv... users could select a value by entering the char. value key.
On the other side in EDMS users could only select a value by a description.
Is it possible to display the char. value and description -fields of characteristics in EDMS?
Thanks in advance....

Easy DMS Search - Characteristic Value Format

Hi,
I am having an issue when conducting a document search using classification with a date characteristic. More specifically, when BAPI_DOCUMENT_GETLIST2 is called, the characteristic value is formatted as DD.MM.YYYY. When the user setting format is MM/DD/YYYY, the search does not yield any results. Does anyone know where EasyDMS derives the format it uses when calling the BAPI and how this may be changed?
Thanks,
Adam

DMS - Inconsistent characteristic value assignment

Dear experts,
I've some DMS documents with an 'Inconsistent characteristic value assignment': two values for a single-value characteristic.
I want to correct those documents, but I don't to change AUSP directly. I've tried BAPI_DOCUMENT_CHANGE2, but without results.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Regards,
sb.

Thanks Charlie.
Yes, this is for PR release strategy. I have checked OMGQCK, there is no inconsitency related to char value assignment. But when I tried to assign char values in SAPL0ME2, there is hard error C1821.
I also tried to delete the char from the class but the error is still there. Any ideas?
Thanks

DMS - BADIs: Read Characteristic values

Hello,
we want to implement a characteristic-check in the Document BADI DOCUMENT_STATUS01~AFTER_CHANGE_STATUS.
Therefore we need to read the chacteristic values of the default class.
If the user enters i.e. some characteristic values in the CV02N an changes the Document Status (without saving between), the new characteristic values cannot be accessed via BAPI_DOCUMENT_GETDETAIL2 (getclassification=x).
Is there an other way to get the characteristic values in the Document BADIs ?
Best regards,
Stefan.

Hello Pelaez,
thanks, we read the buffer with the the function module CLFM_GET_INTERNAL_TABLES.
If the buffer is empty, we get the characteristic values with the BAPI_DOCUMENT_GETDETAIL2.
Stefan.

Viewing document characteristics in Easy DMS public and private folders

We have classified our documents in SAP Document Management System. We are viewing the DIRs in Easy DMS. In the public and private folders, the classification characteristics columns can be added to the screen report, however the values for the characteristics do not appear in the columns. If we use the search function and view those same documents in the search screen, the characteristic values do appear. How can we get these values to appear in the public and private folder views? There does not seem to be an OSS notes which address this discrepancy. In advance, any assistance is most appreciated.

Hi Barry - As Daniel explained, sometimes system behaves if the Default box is not checked but I want you to check the EasyDMS version/patch you are using. Below is the screenshot of latest version/patch.
If you have old verison/patch, please implement the latest version/patch and check.

Easy dms multiple document number search

Dear experts,
We have installed easy dms 6.0 successfully. We have a problem in
usage. In selection screen we need to search "document number" field
with multiple search criteria, however the system permits only 1
entrance.
Thanks for your help.

Dear Ahmet,
based on your description I have to inform you that the mentioned behavior means to be the current standard of EasyDMS. If you want to search for documents in EasyDMS you can only enter one document type and here multiple values are not possible. So I can only recommend you to use other fields like 'description' for searching document info records of different document types.
As EasyDMS is programm in C++ no individual screens could be customizing here. This behavior is also the same in EasyDMS 7.0.
Best regards,
Christoph

How to enabale trace in Easy DMS ?

Hi,

How can i enable Trace option in Easy DMS ?
I saw Note 948254 & Note 661600 but don't understand properly.
Easy DMS Version : 6.0.0.0: SP11 (Unicode)
Operating System : Microsoft Windows XP
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I got some clues on my queries.
I am getting some information from additional data(Characteristics values) to generate document number.
E.G.
I have 2 characteristics
1. Part Type:
                  Values: A - Type 1
                              B - Type 2
2. Part Code:
                   Values: 01- Part 1
                               02 - Part 2
                               03 - Part 3
When am creating document am selecting Part Type = A & Part code = 02 so my document number is A-02. (- : constant).
This logic is working fine in SAP - GUI.
When am creating document through Easy DMS, SAP system is not getting char values in method ASSIGN_NUMBER.
In my code i written if char values is blank then give error message. Because of this error message am getting "Exception Error" error in Easy DMS.
Any body knows why system is not getting char values in BADI when am generation DIR from Easy DMS?
Even in Easy DMS the F4(Selection) help of characteristics is showing only description not values.
Regards,
Sunny

Populate Batch characteristic values in create sales order BAPI

Can anybody help me in populating the batch characteristic values using BAPI_SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT2?
I have checked the related notes provided by SAP, like, 567348 but it will be great if someone can send some code snippet on this.

Subramanian, Brad and Raja.
Thanks for your suggestions its were useful, with
these i can resolve my problem.
!!! Best Regards !!!
Raja
I used the se37 to test bapis, is more easy and fast !!
and you can save data like variant, and you can simulate the real execution without write any code abap,
and re-process the times that you need,
when you know what fields you need you write your abap code faster.
Thanks !!!

Hi,
I want to get the Characteristic Values( Variant Configuration )assigned to First Line Item of Sales Order.

Issue in Custome FM of Characteristic Value

Hi All,
I have created Custom FM for possible values of Characteristic.
Its working fine in all transaction except CU60.
In Cu60 Transaction if user click on F4 for characteristic value My custom help popup is coming. when user select any of the value its populating in table maintenance. But Issue the issue is when user is saving those value those value are not saving in table maintenance.
Please tell me if I need to do any addition stuff.
I have created FM using below SAP Doc.
Function Module for Checking Values
In this field, you can enter the name of a function module for checking characteristic values entered by the user. The function module can be created in any function group.
The following restrictions apply:
The function module must use the standardized interface.
The function module name cannot have more than 27 characters.
This allows names to be inferred for further function modules: for the possible entries on the value assignment screen, and for copying language-dependent value descriptions:
Function module for possible entries
<function module for value check> + suffix "_F4"
Function module for language-dependent value descriptions
<function module for value check> + suffix "_DC"
Interface for Function Module for Checking Values
Import Parameters:
CHARACT_NO LIKE CABN-ATINN Internal characteristic number
CHARACT LIKE CABN-ATNAM Characteristic name
VALUE LIKE CAWN-ATWRT Value to be checked
Exceptions:
NOT_FOUND   Value not found
Interface for Function Module for Possible Entries
Import Parameters:
CHARACT_NO LIKE CABN-ATINN Internal characteristic number
CHARACT LIKE CABN-ATNAM Characteristic name
DISPLAY   Display values only,
   if DISPLAY = 'X'
ADDITIONAL_VALUES LIKE CABN-ATSON Additional values allowed
   if ADDITIONAL_VALUES = 'X'
   (if you want the possible
   entries dialog box to contain an
   additional line for entry)
MULTIPLE_VALUES LIKE RCTMV-ATLIS Multiple values allowed
LANGUAGE LIKE SY-LANGU Language indicator
DISPLAY_WITH_LANGUAGE   Display value with description
Tables
VALUES LIKE RCTVALUES Selected values
   When you call this table, it
   contains existing values.
   Deleted values have status 'D'
   in the table.
   New values have status 'I'
   in the table.
The function module must also let you display and select values using the possible entries pushbutton. To display possible entries, you can use function modules in function group SHL3, such as HELP_VALUES_GET_WITH_TABLE_EXT. The content is described in the function module documentation.
Interface for Function Module for Language-Dependent Value Descriptions
Import parameters
CHARACT_NO LIKE CABN-ATINN Internal characteristic number
CHARACT LIKE CABN-ATNAM Characteristic name
VALUE LIKE CAWN-ATWRT Value to be checked
LANGUAGE LIKE SY-LANGU System language
Exceptions
NOT_FOUND   Value not found
If you use this function module after the function module for checking values, the language-dependent description of the value is copied to the value assignment screen.
Note
Please note that the program code must be based on the predefined interfaces. If your program is not based on these interfaces, the program may terminate with a short dump.
Please note also that the function module cannot take into account any restrictions on allowed values that are due to inheritance or object dependencies, because the function can only read data that is already saved to database tables. The function cannot read current user entries.

I have Created two FM Function Module for Checking Values and Function Module for Possible Entries

Condition type value updation using characteristic value in sales order

Hi Experts,
We are implementing SAP for one of our Spain client. In that one of the Legal requirements is, whenever they are selling the finished products to domestic customers who contain OIL as one of the component then, some additional cost needs to be calculated and collected from customer and which needs to be paid back to Spain Government every month on Region basis.
If OIL is not a component to produce the finished product then, not required to charge the customer additionally.
The OIL content used to produce every finished product will vary based on product characteristic value. Meaning, for some finished product the OIL used will be 2.2 KG and for some products it will be 3.5, 4.3 KG and etc.
Since various combinations of products are available for the client, during sales order creation we are planning to update some special characteristic which the data flow from u201CVariant Tableu201D. In the variant table we are going to maintain the OIL Quantity required making finished product.
But we are not sure how to activate a new condition type with the value fetched in the special characteristic. This new condition type needs to be activated based on this characteristic value and multiplied with total order quantity and price to charge from customer.
Example, the special characteristic fetched the value of 2.2 KG based on variant table. Total Order quantity is 10 PC and charge is 0.06 EURO per KG. in this case, (2.2 x 10 ) x 0.06 EURO = 1.32 EURO
I need the expert opinion how to activate the new condition type based on characteristic value and achieve the above requirement.
Thanks in advance.
Warm Regards,
VEL

Hello,
I have replicated the whole requirememt in IDES and getting the price calculation as needed but the only issue with the Conversion factor for the condition type. Either you need to maintian the conv factor in material master or need to enter manually for the condition type in SO. Some how you have to maintain the conversion factor to calculate the price for the condition type in different unit.
For easy of understanding Lets make the whole requirement in 2 parts
Part - 1
Oil qty calculation. For convenience sake I have taken oil qty also in TO
1) Created a num char OIL_QTY1 with length 9 and decimal places 5 and UOM as TO
2) Created Variant table to infer the OIL qty in TO per piece of finished prod ( This oil qty data may be depends on various factors). For certain Finished products the oil qty may be 0 or blank
3) Created a REF char SO_QTY to pull the SO qty to configuration and add this char in class 300(Table:VBAP,Field :KWMENG)
4) Created another char SO_OIL_QTY (Num with length 9 and decimal places 5 and UOM as TO)
5) Created a PROCEDURE say PROC_SO_OIL_QTY with code
*$self.SO_OIL_QTY = $self.OIL_QTY1 * $self.SO_QTY*
6) Create another PROCEDURE as mentioned earlier with modified code
$SELF.A_VARCOND = 'TEST_001' if OIL_QTY1 specified,
$SET_PRICING_FACTOR ($SELF,A_VARCOND,'TEST_001', SO_OIL_QTY)
Note: Maintain proper seq of the procedures in profile. The Qty cal proc should be before the price related procedures.
PART-2
1) For the condition type maintained 60 EUR per TO (0.06 EUR per KG)
Now if you create SO for the Finished product of 10 PC
the Char values will be
OIL_QTY1 = 0.00022 TO (inferred from Variant table th proc)
SO_QTY = 10
SO_OIL_QTY = 0.0022 TO
Get into conditions tab
Here Condition type ZSIG will be displayed as error with Amount 60 EUR per TO and condition value will be blank. Just enter value 1 in the col NumC and CCon fields.
Now the Condition value will appear as 1.32 EUR.
Hope this gives some more clarity

Hide a row or column for characteristic value # in Query Designer

Hi gurus,
I would if we could hide a result row / column if one of the characteristic value is #. The requirement is actually to remove the meaningless row / column from the whole result set. For example, I have a char Material Group in the column. Since not every Material is assigned to a Material Group, I will get the following layout:
Material_Group A
Material_Group B
Material_Group C
Is it possible to define in query designer so that the column with # will automatically not be displayed?
Thanks,
Meng

Hi Meng,
I guess we have the same users..
But there is one thing that is going to make a non sense on the report: if you do not display the "#" for material group, then the total of your query by material group will not be the summation of what is displayed on the screen...and if the user explort the information in Excel (pretty sure they will do so), you will have some calls that your query does not balance....
Based on that assumption, tell the users to assign a material group to the materials, so that this unassigned column disappears. You could even give them a control report listing all the parts that do not have a material group
If this is a standard business rule not to have a material group for all parts, then, what you could do is to change the text for empty rows for Material group, then the "#" will disappear and wil be under the text description you defined.
But keep in mind that your data is made of materials which do not have a material group in their definition, noraml or not ?

Document in Easy DMS and SAP DMS is lock cannot be accessed

Hello Guru,
Document in Easy DMS and SAP DMS is lock cannot be accessed. when check in Easy DMS the document 123 excel file is not accessible cannot be open, it has an icon on pencil with red circle sign.
when check in SAP GUi, the padlock is unlock, file cannot be open as well with error (File C:\EasyDMS\SAP_400\PRE1234567890 could not be accessed.
how can we fixed this and unlock the document excel so that we can open it. Please advise. Thanks

Hi,
based on your description it seems to me that this original file is currently checked out for editing. So maybe another user is
editing this file and so you cannot access it.
If no other user edits the file you can try to use the function 'Exit Edit mode' in the context menu of EasyDMS. This will checkin the file again and restore the last checked in version.
Best regards,

Authorization Group (BEGRU) search help required in Easy DMS

Hi all,
I had defined some value in authorization group (BEGRU) in SAP. When i opened the Document using CV01N/ CV02N transaction, then F4 help is available to me.
but when i opened the same document via SAP Easy DMS 7.0, Search help functionality is not there.
How could i activate this.
Pls.. Suggest.
Regards,
S Anand

Hello Sheo,
EasyDMS does not provide search help for Authorization object as of the latest release. The search help achieved by customization of the domain BEGRU does not reflect in EasyDMS.
To achieve this, you can enhance easydms interface by using either easydms plugins or EasyDMS custom tab.
