ESS Travel Document attachment functionality

Dear Forumites,
We are planning to Implement Travel application in ESS,
client's requirement is to upload scanned document in travel expense and report application which should be available
for the manager to approve\Reject.
As per my understanding, we can upload documents in two ways.
1) directly attach scanned copy which would be available in content server and through POWL Approver can approv
2) save documents in DMS and attach links in the application.
Can anyone give more clarity on this please?
Regards
Hari Sankar M

Yes we already allow scanned receipts or Credit card clearing or use KPRO
refer note 530792
Starting Enhancement Package 2 for ABAP WebDynpro, the functionality "add attachment" has been added in ESS for Travel Management
Generic Object Service. Please the SAP Note 904711 and 530792 for further information.
You can also use OPEN TEXT as a vendor for a repository!
Document types for attachments to a trip are shown due to the use
of BUS2089. Document types as archived business documents are shown
due to the use of TRAVEL. So you must customize this accordingy.
Attachments > BUS2089, Business documents > TRAVEL.
Dependency on the TRVPA feature: when OAA is 0, you will only see
attachments to a trip (BUS2089), if it is 1, you will see both
attachments to a trip and also stored business documents (TRAVEL).

Document attachment functionality

Hi all
I am trying to explore document attachment functionality in SAP EHS. I am successful with Work Areas and Incident/Accident Management.
I wish, if some body can help with document attachment functionality with risk assessment module in EHS.
Regards
Vikram

hi Vikram,
Over and above what Pavan said, for Risk assessment to have document attachement functionality, you have to define User dfined test type, assign document type to it and then assigned Object type HAS to it.
You can do this by:
SPRO / Environment health and Safety/Industial Hygiene and safety / Basic settings/Specify User defined txt type
Here you create User defined txt type, assign DMS document type to it and for your user defined text type you define object type as HAS: Risk assessment.
With this you will be able to attach documents to your Risk assesments.

Document Attachment functionality in Leave application page of ESS

Hi All,
I have a requirement where in i have to develop a functionality in standard leave application ( Time management) page of ESS / MSS. Does SAP has any standard file type and any particular size limit to be considered while uploading the file.And will there be any adverse effects if this is done.
Any suggestion will be of great help.
Thanks in Advance,
KN

Hi,
As you would be using file system :
File Extension : if you want control on extension of file you need to code your application accordingly
File Size : THe limit on file size will be impacted by bandwidth & current infrastructure If portal accessesd only in internal LAN you would have more bandwidth and if it through internet you would have less bandwidth. Webdispatcher timeout parameter needs to be configured accordingly. Ideally it should not be problem of file size upto 100MB.

New DMS document attachment to order header - can it also be done to a task list?

With business function LOG_EAM_CI_6, you can now attach DMS documents to the order header or operation level in the 'Additional Data' tab.
Since a lot of clients use documents to list complex preventive maintenance instructions, is it also possible to attach a DMS document to a task list header (or operation) and have it show up in the new 'Additional Data' screen area of the resulting order (using a maintenance item/plan to generate the order)? Or do we still have to use the task list operation PRT functionality and have it show up in the order's operation PRT?

Hi Arthur,
I have configured Task list as per the SAP note 1821916 & activated DOC_TL_GUI. This allowed me to attach documents to the Operation &/or Header of the Task Lists. The problem I am facing is when I assign the task list to the work order the documents are not transferred . You have stated that they have transferred to the work order so I am wondering if there is something I missed.
Arthur Balajthy wrote:
And I checked that by adding documents to a task list header or operation, the work order generated from a maintenance plan/item referencing that task list does have those documents attached also.
I haven't tried from a Plan but will do that now.
I assumed if they were attached to the Task List Operation they would transfer to the Work Order like everything else on the Task List
Thanks in advance

Document Compare Function in Acrobat Professional 9

Document Compare function
I use the 'compare' function to compare documents versions etc for changes. It looks like only 250 pages is the maximum number of pages that can compared during each operation.
I am using documents that are 900+ pages and I keep the error message/screenshot attached.
Is this a limitation with Acrobat Professional 9?

Yes, it would appear to be a limitation that Adobe have put in. I'm in a similar situatiion where I have documents up to 2500 pages long that must be compared so while it takes longer I do the compare in batches of 250 pages at a time. It could be as a result of resource usage. I'm finding that when I do a compare, the fisrt one is generally ok but after that Acrobat slows down considerably - it may just be my computer (XP Pro 1.5 GB RAM and 2.8 GHz) but I'd like to know does Acrobat empty the cache or is the cache filling up after each compare and hogging resources?
It's a great function but I wish it would work the way I expect it to.
Cheers

Content server for Document attachment through "services for object" Icon.

Guys,
I have typical problem in installation of Content server for storing external documents.
We all know that we can attach the document in SAP using the icon SERVICES FOR OBJECT. By this we can attach the document to the specific object we want.
-Since my client wants only document attachment method not to completely implement SAP DMS, I proposed this method of attaching documents through services for object method.
-If documents are stored though services for object ,The attached document will directly get stored in sap database(correct me if I am wrong) while in DMS it ask you to select the storage location while u check in for any document
-By storing the doc thru "services for object " For long run when we store the documents in sap database our system will drastically get slow down.
-In this regard I have a plan to incorporate external storage server.
-Now I should know that how I should customize content server configuration so that the attachment through services for object will store into this content server I need to know how to define Client, Content Category, Content Repository, Document Area, Physical Machine, IP Address, Port. (OACT & OAC0)
I appreciate for immediate solution and Points will be rewarded for sure.
Regards,
Murali.S

Hi Murali,
Don't Worry, its possible,
All attachments can be stored in SAP Content Server also, but through archiving process.
Set up a database storage system.
Preparation
Make sure that the HTTP plugin is active.
Transaction SMICM, "Display Services" function key (shift F1)). The list of services must contain a port other than 0 for HTTP.If not, you must adjust the relevant profile parameter.
Typical entry:
icm/server_port_0 PROT=HTTP, PORT=1080, TIMEOUT=900
Make sure that the /sap/bc/contentserver service is active.
If no user is defined, then use transaction SU01 to create a new user. Use the "System" user type.Assign
the SAP_ALL and SAP_NEW profiles to the user. (Eg: HRUSER/PLMUSER/PPUSER etc)
Transaction SICF, select: default_host - sap - bc -contentserver. Select the function to display/change the service. Make sure that a user is defined.
Using the relevant data from the newly created user, maintain the anonymous logon data for the
/default_host/sap/bc/ service and save & activate the changes in transaction SICF. Double click on content server and give the user name which has been created (HRUSER/PLMUSER/PPUSER/MMUSER etc)
Check the system PSE.
Start transaction STRUST. Expand the system PSE. The system PSE must be "green" for each application
server.
Determine a suitable exchange directory.
The exchange directory must be accessible from each application server. If all application servers are running on the same platform (for example, Windows), one network directory that is accessible on all application server (for example,
server\share) is sufficient. You can generally use the global directory
(profile parameter DIR_GLOBAL).You can use the RSPARAM report to determine the profile parameters.
Setting up the storage
Create a table for storing the data. Using transaction SE11, create a copy of the SDOKCONT1
table. If you want to create the repository database, you can name the table ZCONT_DB, for example. Save the
table as a local object. Activate the table.
Create a repository.
Use transaction OAC0 to create a new repository.
Use the following parameters:
Repository Max. two characters, for example, Z1
DocArea: ARCHLINK
Storage type: R/3 database
Storage subtype: normal
Version no. : 0046
Contents table <table name> for example: ZCONT_DB
Exchange directory <directory name> for example:
server\share\
Make sure that the exchange list ends with a \ (or /on Unix).If you are using a variety of platforms, you must use transaction FILE to define a suitable logical file name and use this name. Save the settings.
1. Maintain view table TOAAR_C, via SM31
 Cross client table displayed as information, forget it
2. In field 'StSytm' you must entered 'Z1' as your system need, or anything that you need but you must configure HR Archive link too.
3. In field 'Arch.path' (direct above Spoolpath), entered path in your system, this real path in your operating system. May be you should confirm to your Basis consultant where exactly you could store picture files. So if you enter '/', your file exists at root directory at your UNIX system.
4. Choose 'File store' radio button
5. Save.
First
1. You have to create a number range for SAP ArchiveLink.
 IMG: Basis Components-> Basis Services -> SAP ArchiveLink -> Basic Settings-> Maintain number ranges
 (Trxn OANR). Create number range 01 from 0000000001 to 9999999999 without the external number flag.
2. Document type HRICOLFOTO must exist with document class JPG.
 IMG: Basis Components->Basis Services->SAP ArchiveLink->System Settings->Maintain document types
 (Table TOAVE, Trxn OAC2).
3. Document type HRICOLFOTO must be linked to object type PREL and Infotype PA0002.
 IMG: Personnel Management->Personnel Administration->Tools->Optical archiving->Set up Optical Archiving
 in HR. (View V_T585O, no Trxn). In the first two columns there are minuses, the third (Date) has
 a plus - don't put a flag in the check box.
4. Check which content repository (Archive) is linked to document type HRICOLFOTO and object type
 PREL. IMG: Basis Components->Basis Services->SAP ArchiveLink->Basic Settings->Maintain Links (Table
 TOAOM_C, Trxn).
Test
Test the repository.
Use transaction SE38 to start the RSCMSTH0 report. Specify your repository (i.e. Z1) and start the test.
The report must run without errors. If no problems occurred, you can use the new repository with Archive Link after you carry out the Archive Link Customizing. If problems do occur, check whether one of the related
notes helps.
For More Details :
http://service.sap.com/archivelink.

NOTE:- Screen Shots are missing, i was not able to paste here, One more thing is we did this for uploading a PHOTOS into Content Server, Similarly you have to create a REPOSITORY and Z-TABLE to bring all the Attachments from all the selected Objects and then route them to the CONTENT REPOSITORY.
Your Senior ABAP guy would help you in this, if not i may try to help you more by monday.

Print Preview of 'Document' attached to a PR/PO, Sale Order line item

Is there a BADI/BAPI involved in 'Print Preview of Document attached to a PR/PO, Sale Order line item'. When I select a line item in PO for which a DIR is attached, it doesn't display the files content in the Print Preview.
Q:) Is the system supposed to display the 'Original file' content attached to a DIR in the Print Preview Or is this the standard behavior that system won't display attached DIR - file content.
Please advise.
-Thanks

Hi,
unfortunately I have to inform you that from DMS point of view such a 'file preview' function is not available in the standard of the R/3 system.
If you want to raise a development request at SAP please see the SAP note 11 for further information.
Best regards,

Document Attachement to PO

Whenever a PO output gets triggered the document attachement in the PO also should go along the PO to the vendor.
Is this function possible with the standard SAP settings

It is currently not possible to send attached documents in a purchase
order for email or SAPmail. The technical reason is: During the output,
the form (e.g. MEDRUCK) is already handelled as an attachment. Therfore,
it is not possible to attach documents together with the form.
You could send a purchase order (PO) document via email "external send"
as body text or to convert this PO as PDF attachement. To add aditionnal
attachements in the same mail is not supported from the application.
Therefore, for manual use, you could send the external mail to your
mailbox and add any attachements before sending the email.

Hi experts,
I got a requirement wherein I need to read/get the document attached at PO line item and to send that document through mail as an attacment .

Fetch the delivery date explicite from the Table EKET when your in item level processing and print that.
For Example u can use this code.
To print you have write the this code in Script item level printing window "MAIN" window
Following perform is called to get the line item delivery date in PO
{/: PERFORM GET_DEL_DATE IN PROGRAM ZPerform_prog
/: USING &EKPO-EBELN&

write the below code in the Z program "ZPerform_prog"

What do you mean by DMS type document attachment to the t-code powered by a Z-program? Can you elaborate on the requirement?
What type of module pool is this? Are you trying to build a report using it?
