Integrate Document Builder to SRM (wihtout using PPS or XI)

Hi all,
I am using SRM 7.0 and I want to use the Document builder with SRM without activation the PPS (Procurement for Public Sector) business scenario and without XI.
I looked at some documentation at the service market place
https://websmp204.sap-ag.de/~form/sapnet?_SHORTKEY=01100035870000676863&
and also found the Wiki entry:
http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/DocBuilder/DocumentBuilder3ContentConfiguration+Guide
But the first seem to imply the use of PPS, and the second one describes the configuration of a stand-alone mode, which means that Document Builder is not integrated to another component.
Can anyone give me any advice on how to integrate the document builder into SRM without using PPS or XI?
Thanks very much.
Regards
Ulrike

Hi,
Thank you, Roman, for creating the helpful instructions on integrating Document Builder with HCM using Web Services (Cross-application synchronized integration - SAP Document Builder - SCN Wiki).
Document Builder can be integrated to any SAP application in a similar fashion to how Roman describes in his link; however, in the case of SRM with Procurement for Public Sector (PPS) there is out-of-the-box configurable integration available that shortcuts this process. Licensed PPS customers can access the PPS integration aide by activating the PPS switch.
Best regards,
Maxine

Integrate Document Builder to SRM PPS using Web Service

Well, if what you want to see is the "Document Builder" link from "Related Links" of your RFx document, what you need to do is to configure it in IMG :
SPRO - SRM Server >> Cross-Industry Functions >> Integration with Document Builder >> Activate Document Builder Integration
There you should specify an entry with the following:
DB DocTypes: Object Type EBP Local RFx
And the URL to the Doc Builder webDynpro application in the format of https://<server:port>/sap/bc/webdynpro/ipro/wd_docb
And be sure to check that checkbox marked with "+" on the column header.

Hi Jay,
Ok thats done. Still i we need to do the Web Service activation through SOAManager rite. Correct me if i am wrong.
There are 2 parts to look into it.
1. We can use the OLD Proxy Method used as Web Service.
2. Integration with SAP XI. (Note: PID is available in System Landscape)
We took the discussion to go with OLD Proxy Method used as Web Service for now, Since its working in Sandbox.
We created a client proxy ZDOCB in SE80 and activated it using the wizard.
we created a Logical Port in LPConfig.
And when checking for Web Service in WSADMIN, we are not able to find the Old Proxy used as Web Service.
We can use SOAManager instead. Since its not Configured in Sandbox, we went and configured in the old transaction itself (WSADMIN, LPCONFIG).
If its feasible, can we do in SOAManager also.
Objective:
to get the Document Builder reflected in the Related links of RFx and Contract.

Records management and Document builder in SRM with PS

Hi,
We are implementing SRM 5.0 with PS ( Public section), can any one share any experience and documentation about Records management and Document builder in SRM with PS.
Thank you
Sreedhar Vetcha

Hi Chris,
I am having the same issue as Patrizia while using BSP, SRM_DEMO_RECORD & SRM_DEMO_BSPEXT, to search/display, maybe update later the records,documents,and notes that are stored in RM. I have read all the documentation described in your messages as to how to customize web display BSP application using these 2 BSPs, srm_demo_record & srm_demo_bspext.
I tested SRM_DEMO_RECORD with <srm:element> tag embbeded in the layout page, but it lists only the records that associated to a given RMS_ID and SPS_ID, and I wasn't able to get it to display the associated document and notes for a selected RM record. The comments on the iview page in BSP suggest the custom code is needed for initial request from browser and callback event to return the notification for the activities occurred in RM. As you suggested to Patrizia, I wonder if you've some sample code that i could use to make these BSPs work before additional enhancements is needed later. As far as other prerequisit settings of http access and assigning search interface class to the correct service provider element type using GENSP_QUERY_EXT connection parameter are all properly set with my customer. So i'd feel really grateful if you could forward me the example codes for these BSPS.

Hello SRM Guru,
We have requirement in our client to Integrate ECC with Only SRM PPS Document Builder Component.
Here is more detail:
After creating PO in ECC , User should click some button in the PO Transaction that should launch the document
builder Webdynpro where they can enter some more questioners then the PDF format or Word format contract will be generated then it should be attached in the PO in ECC.
Client wanted to use only SRM document builder component. Could you please let me know the possible
option to integrate ECC and Document Builder.
Like how to open document builder webdynpro application form ECC and how to transfer PO details to Document Builder
and finally how to attach the generated contract to PO in ECC.
Thanks in Advance.
VJ

The upload type should be same, for ECC and SRM .. only the datasource need to be changed
Example:
If I you want to integrate Contracts from ECC and SRM, The OPM_SOURCES table should be like BELOW
ECC:
SOURCE ID :    SRXCLNT220##ZBBP_TD_CONTR_2
SOURCE NAME : CONTRACTSSRM_DS
UPLOAD TYPE : CONTRACTS
SOURCE TYPE    DS
SRM
SOURCE ID :     EXSCLNT220##Z_SADSECC6CONTRACT
SOURCE NAME :   CONTRACT_DS
UPLOAD TYPE :   CONTRACTS
SOURCE TYPE :   DS

SRM PPS with Document Builder

Hi,
We installed SRM 7.0 SP8 with PPS.
How do I activate Document Builder. As per configuration guide i didn't see /IPRO/FND_DOCUMENT_BUILDER business function.
Couple of Question
1. Is it Add-On installation required for Document Builder ?
2. What is the latest version of Document Builder ?
3. How do I check whether document builder installed on my system ? Which parameter needs to check ?
4. How do I check the version of Document Builder on my system ?
Thanks a lot

That's the issue, As per configuration guide needs to activate /IPRO/FND_DOCUMENT_BUILDER business function. But I don't see that business function on SFW5.
But I activated both PPS function already.

Document Builder PPS

Hi All,
I configured content for Document Builder 3.0. It's working fine for standalone service.
But I'm unable to integrate to SRM RFx or Contract. As per the document builder configuration guide, it's required to create Proxy and Logical port using Tcode: WSADMIN, LPCONFIG. But both are obsolete.
Till now I created client Proxy using SE80. Can any one suggest what are the next steps. How to activate & integrate the services to get the Document Builder button on RFx or Contract ?

SRM 7.0 with Document Builder

Hi Experts,
We have a SRM 7.0 with PPS. We want to use Document Builder function. We could find the Document Builder node in IMG (tcd spro).
According to the Business Scenario Configuration Guide of SAP Document Builder, it seems we need install PSDOCB 300 add-on. But I couldn't find the PSDOCB 300 add-on in SMP( no authorization?).
Should I install PSDOCB 300 or Document Builder is already build-in?
If I should install PSDOCB 300,where I can find it, pls show me the download path?
If Document Builder is already build-in, what should I do to show the node in IMG?
Thanks!

Using xpath expressions in Document-Builder

Hi all
we have re-designed our (existing) DDX-templates with the Document Builder in LC Workbench. The DDX templates are used to assemble PDFs with LC Assembler-Service.
Now my question: Is it still possible to use XPath-expression in the DDX template? Please find our example below:
The XPath expression works only if we copy&paste the DDX source code directly to the Assembler-Service property view (picture below). But referring the DDX-template doens't interpret the xpath path at run time (2nd picture below). Any help on that will be appreciated!
Works (using DDX source code directly):
Doesn't work (using DDX template):

Hi,
>
I tried to get a portion of an XML by using XPath Expressions as follows:
String xPathExpression =
"declare namespace xq='http://inti.notariado.org/indices' " +
"$this/xq:RULES/xq:RULE[@disabled]";
I think any XPath expressions which use [] are not supported in stand alone
version, but as this is not documented I could be wrong.

Stitching/mergigng of xdps using document builder when fragments have been used in xdps.

Hi,
I am trying to merge xdps using document builder in LiveCycle workbench. Basiclly I am using the option "Dynamic stitching" in document builder to merge more then one xdps. So I am able to do it when my xdps are not having any fragments.
But I am not able to get the merged xdp when fragments are there in my xdps.
It is throwing some error.
It says "XFA dynamic assembler failed to stitch a fragment".
So can I specify the fragment path while merging these xdps.
Please let me know the inputs on this. Or is there any other way to merge xdps which are having fragments.
Thanks in advance,
Ashish

One probable reason is that the individual XDPs have incorrect fragment references. Have you checked out
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/521/cpsid_52158.html
Any subtle mistakes in the path like a folder name specified twice in the path (as it was programmatically generated?), or an extra forward slash, etc.?
Did you try to render these XDP forms (with fragments) individually using LiveCycle process orchestration/API?

Document Builder Scenario

How I can create scenarios for SRM-Document Builder (Inbound & Outbound).
Please give me idea for SRM7.0 - Document Builder 3.0.
Are we using Webservice for Document Builder ?
As we are using Proxies for SRM, it is clear, only problem is with Integration with Document Builder.
Study SAP

Hi
XI Content is also available for Doc B 3.0
SAP Content---- ESR Content (XI Content)--XI CONTENT PSDOCB--XI CONTENT PSDOCB 300---PSDOCB30009_0-10003840.ZIP
This content is updated on 22.10.2010..
Before importing the contents in ESR..upgdrade the SLD SIM & CR contents.
Add the document builder product & swcv in the Business system of DocB system.
Now you can see the objects in Sproxy of DocB System
Please check the config guide also for the use of proxies or webservices.

Document Builder - Leverage already created dialog, forms, etc.

Is it possible to create an RFx, create Document Builder forms, attach them to the RFx and then use the same Document Builder already answered questions, forms, etc and turn that into a PO without having to fill out the Document Builder information again. We are using SRM 7.0 and we don't know if this is possible or if it is, we don't know how to do this. Please help!

Hi Shannon,
I am also going to implement SAP Document builder.
Could you please share your experience?
I want to know some information on the integration.You can contact me at [email protected]

next sequel number is not populated in update document builder page for PO's. did any one faced this kind of problem. This is not happening with all of the user systems, only with few that's wierd.
Navigation:
Purchasing Super User >> Buyer Work Center >> Requisition
Here selecting requisition number to be added/updated to existing PO's. once we do "Add To Order" update for PO in document builder.
Immediately throwing an error below, actually it should take next line to existing PO, its not happening.

Does SRM/ROS or PPS addon support automatic generation of digital certifica

Hi Experts,
Does SRM / ROS or PPS addon support automatic generation of digital certificate for suppliers when they get registered in SRM? if not, is there any Badi or standard enhancement spot for the same?
Otherwise, how the digital certificates are communicated to suppliers to open the digitally signed documents from buyer side?
Thanks in advance,
Ranjan

Releasing Resource (File Handle) and Document Builder

I am currently working on a project that uses a Jar file containing XML configuration files. The Jar file needs to read this file and the DocumentBuilder.parse method is called on the XML files. Later, new XML files need to be added to this same Jar file.
The problem is that at that point I can't open the Jar file for writing because I can't unlock the file since it is held by the DocumentBuilder. Even when these objects go out of scope and are deleted the resource is not being unlocked. The only solution I've found is to copy the file and read from the copy and write to the original. This solution leaves extra files lying around though and is not very elegant. Is there anyway I can force that file handle to be destroyed and unlock the configuration file resource?

That could be.....
Basically I create a URI object using the path for the Jar file and the XML file within it. Then I use URI.toString() and give that to the Document Builder.
DocumentBuilder.parse( StringURI )
