How to attach documents at record level using GOS?

Question

Hi Guys,
I have been using GOS for some time now and i am using GOS to attach documents at transaction level.
Now i need to design a utility where the user would first run a report and this report will bring a few records and the output should have an option to attach some PDF files for each record. Is this possible using GOS? Is there any other simple way to attach documents @ record level and not at transaction level? Any pointers??
Cheers

Answer 1

two options:
1. you want to upload document/view document from your report only.
In this case
a. go to transaction SBDSV1
c. class name = "any name you desire without spaces"
   class type = "other objects"
   all other parameters copy from any other objects.
once this is done, in your program call fm
call function 'SWU_OBJECT_PUBLISH'
    exporting
      objtype           = 'class name created in stepc'
      objkey            = 'concatenated devlierynumber item number variable'
    exceptions
      objtype_not_found = 1
      others            = 2.
this will bring up the icon for uploading document in the top left corner of your report. (call it after start of selection)
to manually test this process , go to transaction OAOR and use class name, type =OT and the key to view or upload the file.
2. you want to upload/view document from shipment document transaction.
in this case, you need to find the appropriate BO from SWo1 transaction  which has go delivery number /item number as the key (for example look at BO LIPS from SWO1)
once this is done you can call the FM mentioned in the previous option by passing the classname and the delivery doc key. the upload/view can alos be done from the standard transaction for that document.
Hope this is clear.
