Is it possible to attach documents to Sales Orders in 4.6c?

Hi
I need to add attachments (pdfs) to sales order.
I understand that the following is required for viewing the option - 'services for objects':
Reference-SAP Note:  Note 598073 - Message "No service available"
      1. In Release 4.70, the object services for Transactions VA02/VA03 were deactivated in the SAP Standard System (for performance reasons). However, the object services can be reactivated individually by setting user/profile parameter SD_SWU_ACTIVE = X.
      2. The object services are only available for dialog users, that is, if you choose user type 'Dialog' for the corresponding user on the 'Logon data' screen in Transaction SU01.
My system is 4.6C and I am not able to add this parameter - "Parameter ID  SD_SWU_ACTIVE does not exist".
My user type is 'dialog'.
Can you tell me if there is something else that I need to activate?
Regards
Manoj

It's not possible to do this in STS. If you want to attach Word or Excel files you have to use BPS with the GUI (planning folders) or a BW query.
Hope it helps.
Regards

  • Problem with attaching file to Sales Order

    Hello,
    In my company we have the possibility to attach files to sales orders, e.g. pdf files with the printing details.
    These files are added by the GUI user, this works fine.
    Now we have an extra order creation stream in which a pdf file has to be added to the SO without user interaction.
    I found a helpful link ( /people/rammanohar.tiwari/blog/2005/10/10/generic-object-services-gos--in-background )
    This program creates URL links with no problem, but the file generation is not implemented yet.
    I tried to add the file functions to his sample report but still have one problem. The file is uploaded, but not reported as a PDF file in sap. If I select the created attachment SAP allows only the saving of the attachment. After saving the created file is a good PDF file, it opens with PDF-viewers.
    Why does SAP not know this is a PDF file and report it as such (and open the pdf viewer when selected).
    Thanks, Frank.

    Hi,
    Welcome to the SDN Forums!!!
    You need to supply the PC file extension in the container element 'DOCUMENTTYPE'.
    swc_set_element lt_message_container 'DOCUMENTTYPE' p_msgtyp.
    In your case change the above statement as below:
    swc_set_element lt_message_container 'DOCUMENTTYPE' 'pdf'.
    <b>OR</b> change the default value of p_msgtyp to 'PDF'.
    Cheers,

  • Attach electronic documents to sales order

    HI,
    I need to attach electronic documents to sales order,  for example technical draw of an element which must be procured. (Furniture Industry).I believe it is not possible in standard system. Do you know any alternative solutions? Any advice will be helpful.
    Best regards,

    Hi Maciej,
    This is definitely possible. You need to add parameter SD_SWU_ACTIVE to your user profile. For more details, see SAP Note 598073.

  • To attach DMS document in sales order at item level

    Hi gurus,
    My requirement is whenever sales order is changed, I need pull off a particular DMS document and attach it to sales order at item level in background.
    This is different from GOS concept of attachement.
    Please give your thoughts on this.
    Regards,
    Thiyagu

    This functionality is not available in Standard SAP. PDF will have to be attached outside SAP system, but you can certaionly maintain a text as 'PDF attached with Sales order'

  • Why it is not possible to attache documents or photos to mail ??

    Why it is not possible to attache documents/photos/mp3s to mails?it is very much inconvenient!!!

    Why would you send an mp3 via email in the first place?
    The iPhone allows you to attach a single picture to an email. In addition to pictures that you take with your phone's camera, you can also send images that you have synced with iTunes or saved from your iPhone's Safari browser. When you attach a picture, the Mail application allows you to optimize your picture's file size before sending it.
    Step 1
    Tap "Photos" on the Home screen and tap "Camera Roll" under "Albums."
    Step 2
    Tap the photo that you want to attach to an email and tap the "Options" icon on the bottom left corner of the screen. Select "Email Photo" and enter the recipient's email address next to "To." Type any additional information in your email's body, if necessary.
    Step 3
    Tap "Send" and choose the file quality that you want to use for the picture.
    Researching something before purchasing is always a smart step to consumerism. If you dont see the feature, than compromise and use a 3rd party app. with millions of apps available I'm sure you can google it to find something to attach documents.

  • Why is not possible to attach documents into emails in answer to others emails?

    why is not possible to attach documents into emails in answer to others emails?

    This is a user to user forum and nobody knows Apple's motives in not including that feature yet. I suggest you use the following link to provide your suggestion to Apple.
    http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html
    You can, by the way, add photos or videos when replying, just not other document types. It more than likely relates to the sandboxing of iOS apps to keep things safe and malware free.

    Can anyone guide me on this?
    Thanks,

    Hello Janagar,

    Pdf file is at Document Management System, requirement is to attach it to the sales order item.
    Note: DMS file can be always allowed to attach at item level.Please dont bring GOS concept here.
    It can be done manually via VA02 --> Extras --> Documents.

  • Company Code Validation of Financial Document with Sales order during Sales

    Dears,
    We are working on ECC 6.0 version and our requirement is to restrict saving the Sales order if the Company codes in Sales order and Financial document (L/C) when assigning Financial Document in Sales order are different.
    With the configuration settings in Foreign Trade, it is possible to restrict this but the system only gives information message if the company codes are different but save the sales order.
    Is it possible to restrict the sales order from saving if the Comapany codes are different through SAP standard configuration or do we need to go for any development only.
    Looking forward to your suggestions.
    Elliah.

    hi Elliah,
    for this task, there are good Userexits. I don't know any customizing for this.
    I would do it in the roule of the copying or in the Userexit while saving the invoice. But this is in your point of view ABAP developement.

  • Create Billing Document from Sales Order (Without Delivery)

    Dear Experts,
    Pls note, presently we are creating Billing Document (VF01) from Outbound Delivery Number after Post Good Issue. All sales Document like Billing Document, Output Type, Invoice Type has been configured for this process and we are doing this without any error. Fyki, we have configured lots of Z Order, Billing & Delivery type to do this processes.
    But for one of this order type we need not do any delivery. We want to create Billing Documents from sales order directly (without doing any Outbound Delivery).
    So, would u pls advise the steps how can we configure and assign Order Type, Billing Type or any other type  to meet above requirement.
    Thanks in advance.
    Best Regards.
    Ripon

    Hi
    There are two most important configuration:-
    1) In VOV8 for your Order Type maintain the Order Related Billing Document
    2) Maintain the Copy control setting in VTFA betwwen your Order Type and billing Type.
    Also note that if your line item is not require to be delivered then for your Item category maintain (in VOV7) not relevant for delivery and not relevant for scedule line.

  • Outbound delivery document from Sales order

    Hi ,
    While creating the outbound delivery document from Sales order, all the line items of the Sales order are populated in the Delivery document. The line items where stock is not available, the line is still populated in the delivery document with zero quantity.
    Pls suggest the way in config, so that at the time creation of the delivery document system to populate only the lines with the available stock.
    Thnx

    Hello Soumya
    I could not able to find any std transaction or config via you could restrict it. However you also no till 'Picking' not completed user is not able to make postings... so i couldnt see any issue in this.
    Still you need to restrict this, you to configure User Exit via you can restrich the lin items to come in delivery for no stock item.

    While creating billing document from Sales order it is creating with document type RV which is standerd one but i want to change Document type.
    How can i change it?
    Regards
    Raj

    Hi
    If you use another existing document type, check that it has a number range suitable to you.  Else create a new 'z' type and assign an entirely new number range, not used in the other doc types.
    It is useful to make the FI document number the same number.  If I understand from the forums, the FI number range must be external.  Search the forum for this.  It is very useful for the Finance people.
    Kind regards
