How to trigger a workflow using generic object services?

Hi Experts,
Let me know on how to trigger a workflow using generic object services.
My requirement is to trigger the FI document reversal document using Object services.
Any info or docs relevant to this, please share with me..
Thanks,
Dinesh.

Dinesh,
First of you need to check if the transaction has a BO (in released status) published to use the GOS.
These are the pre-requisites for GOS
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_46c/helpdata/en/94/aa532cddd511d289860000e8216438/content.htm
Once done.. check that you have valid workflow linkages active for this BO.
Now when you click on the 'start workflow' the system will show all relevant workflows for the BO to choose from and to start.

You haven't explained what object and object key you're using, nor have you provided any indication of how you implemented the GOS attachment functionality. You need to provide more information to resolve an issue like this.

How to attach document using Generic Object Service

Hi all,
How can i create attachment to the parked invoice using Generic Object services? i want function modules which are used to do it.
Actually I want to do this from the business object method. I am having word document as one of the workitem step. once i get this document I need to attach this document to the parked invoice so that users can see that document by view object list.
Its urgent.

Hello,
Check your configuration of document type assignement to required business document - object type, Archivelink table, content repository in OAC3 transaction.
Goto respective business document > Click on GOS > Create > Store business document - Here you can see defined document type with desctiption. Double click on this the assign your document to this business document. Save it.
This will help in attaching the document to your required business document.
To verify you can check the archivelink table or by transaction OAAD.
Hope this will help you.

My requirement is users will create the notification through IQS1 and they will attach the Adobe document through Generic Object service. In the notification Task, they will assign the repsonsible person for that form. Once they released the notification, i need to send a mail to the responsible person. I got the BO (BUS7051) . I created the custom WF and acitivated the BO & WF link. When i selected the Workflow Overview in the Generic Object Serivce, it is saying 'There are no workflows that have already worked with this object'. But when i checked the is worklow log in SWIA, my workflow got triggered.
I would like to know why it was not showing when i selected the same in Generic Object Serivce. How to trigger Workflow throuhg Generic Object Service.
Any info relevant to this, please share with me..

Hi,
For generic object services to find the workflow, the object must be attached to the workitem/workflow or used in the container.
If the object is correctly used in the workflow, it will be visible via GOS.
How did you use the object in the workflow?

Attach Documents using Generic Object Services

With reference to Manual Bassani's SDN Contribution of code examples on how to attach documents using Generic Object Services - we have found that since implementing ECC 6 the following code no longer works (at the end of page 9):
CALL CREATE ATTACHMENT SERVICE FROM TOOLBAR
WHEN 'ATTACH'.
CALL METHOD MANAGER->START_SERVICE_DIRECT
EXPORTING
IP_SERVICE = 'CREATE_ATTA'
IS_OBJECT = OBJ
EXCEPTIONS
NO_OBJECT = 1
OBJECT_INVALID = 2
EXECUTION_FAILED = 3
OTHERS = 4.
It is necessary to use IP_SERVICE = 'PCATTA_CREA' to get this to function correctly.
The original document can be found at [https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/0e6b0d95-0a01-0010-4696-ca0a48de5fb3]

Starting Workflow from Generic Object Services

Hi All.
We are on ECC6. In transaction MM02 when I excute 'Start Workflow' from Generic Object Services, no workflows are found. Can anyone help me with the following issues;
1. What is the underlying object in transaction MM02 (I believe it is BUS1001006)
2. How can i ensure that the proper workflows in this transcation are started through some
customisation, enhencement or user-exit.
Regards.

I think you have to maintain the Workflow Template as General Task and then only it will appear in the GOS.
Thanks

Attach Documents to Custom Program Using Generic Object Services

Hi There,
         I created Object type ZGOS and used in the custom program, when i try to attach documents it allows and then shows in attachment list.
        But When I use that program next time that document attached is not available.
Is there any separate save Class or FM available for saving the document to the specified custom program.
I am using following code in the program,
CLEAR obj.
SET OBJECT TYPE TO 'ZGOS'
obj-objtype = objtype.
SET OBJECT KEY = REPORT NAME
SELECT SINGLE name
FROM trdir
INTO obj-objkey
WHERE name = sy-repid.
CALL GOS MANAGER WITHOUT CONTAINER (WILL BE DISPLAYED IN THE TOOLBAR)
CREATE OBJECT manager
    EXPORTING
      is_object = obj
    EXCEPTIONS
      OTHERS    = 1.
Thanks in advance.

Urgent!! Issue in using Generic Object Services (GOS)

Hello Friends,
I have created a GOS Business object and i am using this to attach documents at the selection screen of my programs.
The implementation is successfull and working fine. When i execute my program, i can see the GOS Toolbar, i am able to upload document from my PC and view in the attachment list too.
But the issue is, when i end my session, and try to see attachment list by executing the program again, it comes blank with no documents. This means, once i end the session, i am not able to see the attachments that i have created earlier.
Any helpful input will be appreciated and rewarded.
Thanks and Regards,
Vikas Bittera.

Hello Vikas
The document has to be uploaded to the BDS (Business Document Service).
I will give you an example how I did this:
1. Create business object 'ZREPORT'. " for attaching documents to reports
2. Call transaction OAER (Business Document Service) with the following parameters:
 - Class name = 'ZREPORT' (my business object)
 - Class type = 'BO' (business object)
 - Objekt key = leave empty or enter name of report (if empty, a popup appears)
 - Storage system = 'BDS_DB' (seemed a good choice to me)
3. Execute
4. In the BDS choose tabstrip "Create" (lower left part of screen). Right-click on the Word document icon and choose Import File from the context menu.
As soon as you have uploaded your Word document it is visible in your business object (attachment list). When you display the attachment list and right-click on the document you can directly open it in the BDS.

Instead of copyg the std fm to z, do the following,
1. Go to se37 open FM VIEW_KURGV in display mode.
2. Click on the spiral icon on the top.
3. Then in menu go edit->enhancment options -> show implicit enhancement
4. """""""""""""""""""""" kind of lines will appear in the cde, just rt click on the line at the place u want to insert the code and select
enhancement implementation create.
5. Give apropriate name for thi , it will inset a n place to write your code.
This is an std sap methodology and is supported in upgradde also.

Hello Ashish,
i dont think activating of GOS will solve ur probs..... GOS wont create a WF item ...... try to get some kind of GOS before u do anything in SAP systems.
u can do like this ......
1 create custom screen where u can enter asset details and store in custom tables....and generate one custom doc.number to track.
2. trigger WF when user submits it for approvals.
3.Upon final approvals.--->run BDC to do postings......
4.Give a Option to attach documents to the parking documents. ( that GOS ).
