Link IFS document to application table

What is the best way to link my bespoke application table to a document stored in IFS.
In this scenario I wish to allow my users to publish documents via IFS and use the search facilities provided. But I also wish to provide a link to specific documents from my bespoke application tables. This link would need to be maintained, to show the latest version of the document, regardless of changes made through IFS (appart from deletion).
What I need to know is what column type I need in my bespoke table and which database tables and columns would I need to link to in IFS.
Thanks in anticipation

You basically have three options:
1) Use the Oracle 9iFS transaction context to do work in a foreign schema while making an API call in 9iFS. However, this link is working the other way (9iFS to your application).
2) Use Advanced Queues (AQ) with the current product to pass messages between your external application and 9iFS.
3) Use the productized integration with AQ in 9.0.3 (when, by the way, 9iFS will be renamed the Content Management SDK) to create the same functionality.
So, I'd pick option #2 or #3, depending on your needs. 9.0.3 will soon be released, FYI, and will be added to the 9iAS CD pack (and available for download here).

The Table of Contents picks up selected named Styles in the text like Head 1, 2 etc.
Have you actually applied the styles?

Linking subsequent documents of PO

Dear All,
There is a need to develop an application to link subsequent documents of PO. For example, Against a PO, 2 service entry sheets(SES) have been created and against these SESs, 2 LIVs have been done.
Now I want to link SES & LIV i.e. against which SES, a particular LIV has been made. I browsed through the table EKBE but I could not get the linking info.
But, in 'PO history' tab of ME23n, selecting the GR/IR assgt links all the subsequent docs.
Can anybody suggest at the table level or function module level, how these link information can be obtained? We are using 4.6C.
Thanks
Regards
Amit

Hi,
If you create the another PO there will be various situations
1. If you create the PO for the material then MIGO needs to be done for the PO which will add your inventory quantity.
This is wrong.
2. If you create the service PO for only freight cost then it will not add your inventory quantity after posting service entry sheet.
But the cost of material ( = freight cost) will not increase.
So in both the situations creating additional PO will never serve the purpose.
So the solution is
Post the additional cost in MIRO using credit memo with reference to PO.
Here you can also edit the vendor code and pay the desired amount to desired vendor
In addition to that cost of inventory will also increase.
So both the purposes
1. To increase the inventory value (and not to increase the inventory qty)
2. payment to the vendor
will be served
I have also faced similar problem and this is the most suitable solution

How to link Material Document with Sales Order

Hi,
When we receive stock through MFHU transaction it becomes sales order stock. The movement type used to receive these into stock would be 131 for MTS & 131 E for MTO. My question is how link Material Document (MKPF/MSEG) with Sales Order because later using that sales order and line item I want to get the planned order number in SAP from PLAF table.
Thanks & Regards,
Balaji Viswanath.

Hi,
To refer to Sales order you have to go to Purchase order .
Step1 -From MSEG table you can get the EBELN ( PO) EBELP
BWART (Movement Type).
Step2-Now go to EKPO and retrieve all the PO EBELN, LABNR corrresponding
to the PO found the MSEG table.
Step3-Now go to the VBAK for Sales order Header record and compare the field
VBELN = EKPO-LABNR+0(10) and to rerive Sales order item go to VBAP and
copmpare the fields VBELN = EKPO-LABNR+0(10) and
POSNR = EKPO-LABNR+10(5).
Thanks

Link to document not opening document in browser or client app

hi All,
i am using office 365 e1, i have aspx page on which we are fetching link of document and showing using CSOM. when user click on link instead of opening in client app or browser it is downloading.
if you have solution please help me

Hi,
According to your description, you want to open document link in client app or browser.
You need to active the “Open Documents in Client Applications by Default” feature.
I suggest you do as the followings:
1. Open “Site Settings”->”
Site Collection Features”.
2. Active the “Open Documents in Client Applications by Default” feature.
I did a test in my environment, here is a screen capture below:
http://tinypic.com/r/f05egm/8
Do you mean that it will download file or just an open alert in the browser after you click the document link ?
Please provide your detailed information such as screen capture, it will be easier for us to find the solution of the issue.
More information about open documents link in client app, please refer:

Link DMS document to Sales Order

Hello -
Currenlty, our Quality Department manually opens each applicable sales order and manually attaches a required document via the "Extras/Documents" path from within VA02 menu bar. It is extremely time consuming.
I want to know if it is possible to automatically attach a "linked document" to a sales order after it has been saved? I'd like to create/run a batch job that loops through these sales orders, and if applicable, attaches the "linked document". DMS is setup and working and the document that I need to attach is ready. I don't know where I need to put the record of this "link". I can see all of the "links" via CV03N (Object Links/Sales Document Item), but I don't know how they get there.
Any advice or link to documentation would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Bryan

Any advice on how to fill stucture BAPI_DOC_DRAD?
Also, I don't want to create any documents. The document already exists. I just want to establish a link. Can I do that without creating a document that already exists?

How to make a magnifying glass link to a look up table ?

Dear Friends,
Hello. I am developing the accounting application of journal entry. In journal line, I use the image "magnifying glass" next to each chart field. When we click on the magnifying glass, it's supposed to come up a look up table( a chart and name mapping table), and we select the proper chart to input into the chart field.
I understand to create another record and page for the look up table. But I don't understand how to make a magnifying glass link to a look up table. Can anybody tell me how to do that ? Thanks.
Lucy

This is how it works,
Table A (which stores chart fields). You have used fields from table A on a page so that users can input data.
You don't need to put a magnifying glass image or create a new page to achieve look up page.
all you need to do is create another table say Table B which should have the chart field and corresponding description you want to show on lookup page. Then open record-field property of the chart field on Table A and mention Table B as prompt table.

Bookmarks not working in multi-document PDF application

Why are bookmarks not working in multi-document PDF application when uploaded to the web? We created a multi-document PDF application. All bookmarks and links work on our systems. All work on the customer's system. They do not work when uploaded to the customers website. Their IT department says its an issue of relative vs. absolute addressing. We've created applications like this for years without running into this issue. Can't find anything about it in Acrobat Help. Can anyone help or lead me to help? Thx much, Sandy

Have you tried opening the file in your browser to see if the bookmarks are working? To open the file in your browser you need to do this:
1) Launch your favorite browser;
2) File >> Open >> Select your pdf file
See this picture to see what I am talking about. You might need to click on it to magnify it:
Good luck.

Link Material Document generated for material movement due to production

Hello Expert,
I am creating a zreport for Material Consumption during Production. I am assuming Confirmation entry in PP module as a base of this report and linking to Material Movement data in MM Module. But I am not able to link this data from tables.
Can you pls guide me how to link Material Document generated for material movement due to production confirmation entry and actual production confirmation entry.
Thanks
Shailendra

Hi Shilendra ,
You can create a report with the logic. That all the materials which are created due to backflushing confirmation are created with movement type 131 and the component material are consumed by movement type 261.So you can create the report with this logic.
Dont forget to award Points if it helps.

Database Applications Table (GTC): Moving fields across to resource

All,
I have a Sun Java System Directory Server resource and a Database Applications Table (GTC) connector. The Database Applications Table is a trusted source for incremental reconciliation against an Oracle database.
For simplicity's sake, assume that the table which the Database Applications Table is pointing to is called hr_feed and has the following columns:
* Table: hr_feed *
- employee_id
- first_name
- last_name
- pay_grade
Next, assume that the Sun Java System Directory Server resource has the following attributes:
* uid=<employee_id>,ou=employee,dc=mycompany,dc=com *
- uid
- givenname
- sn
- paygrade
When I created the Database Applications Table connector, I was able to map employee_id to User ID (uid), and first_name and last_name to First Name (givenname) and Last Name (sn), respectively. However, I would like to:
1) Create the Sun Java System Directory Server resource and link it to the OIM user if it does not exist
2) Pass the pay_grade attribute from the hr_feed table (via the Database Applications Table connector) through to the Sun Java System Directory Server resource
How can I perform the above actions - most importantly #2?
I notice that the Resource Object associated with the Database Applications Table connector has all the fields which I assume would be populated as each record is picked up? Do I need to associate a new Process Task Adapter with the Reconciliation Insert Received Task and grab it from there somehow?
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated :-)
Thank you,
Damian

Hi Nitesh,

Table in Database
Parent Table Name: Application1
Columns: Userid, eMail, Firstname, Lastname, Description, Access_Level (Description and Access_Level are custom fields)
When I provision this resource, and populate all the above details, I get an error as stated in my first post. However if I only enter Userid, Email, Firstname, Lastname then it get created in the database correctly. Is there some sort of mapping i need to do for the 'custom' attributes?
Thanks

Questions about database application tables connector

Hi all,
I need to manage with OIM several databases (each one with its custom tables).
Also, one of them will be my trusted target on the initial load of users. The structure of our tables is not similar to the included in the example.
The documentation explains how the OraAppX.xml could be modified but it doesn't speak about relations with "DBTable_nonTrusted.xml" and/or "DBTable_trusted.xml" For example, if I don't have a column called USR_COMM_LANG, could I replace this column name for another that I have in my database ? And what about the references on the "DBTable_nonTrusted.xml" file. Connector doc doesn't explain how references to that field (USR_COMM_LANG---xel_usr_comm_lang) are managed by the connector and if the normal working of the connector could be affected if the name of a variable is changed in the xml conf file.
It could be that adapters of this connector were hardcoded with the referece to xel_usr_comm_lang (???) .
The connector documentation includes a section titled "Adding Custom Database Columns for Provisioning and Reconciliation". The first impression reading this document is that it is possible to extend the predefined table rather than create and define a new structure of table.
Has anyone rebuilt the "DBTable_nonTrusted.xml", "DBTable_trusted.xml" and "OraAppX.xml" files changing all default variables in order to manage a customized table? .
Many thanks in advance,
Claudia

Hi Claudia,
1) Yes, you must replace the column names in the "column" tag on your XML file for the column names that you have in your database tables. Also, remember that you need to configure the other parameters (like data_type, data_typ_size, etc) according to your database table.
2) The "xel_data_source" parameter is the attribute name that will be recognized by the OIM and they can be mapped to a form field (UD_DBAPP_XXXX) in your process definition in OIM Design Console.
3) You can customize your Database Application Tables connector for provisioning as you wish, but some issues exists. In the Known Issues section of the documentation you can see that this connector doesn't work for more than two tables.
4) To customize your Database Application Tables for Trusted Recon, there are other restrictions because OIM users have some required fields that must be filled to create a user successfully.
Hope that helps, and please let me know if you have more questions.
Regards.

Linking a document

Hello,
I evaluate the JavaStudio Creator for the DeutschePost ITSolutions and I want to know, if I can link a document to an object (for example �menu� or �listbox�), without including them in a database?

I know this is a year late, but for anyone still searching for this, I found a solution that works well for me:
1. Create the table in the Access Web App that you wish to attach files to.
2. Use Sharepoint Business Connectivity Services to read the data in the background database for your Access Web App.
3. Create a document library in Sharepoint, adding an external data column type, using the content type you created in Business Connectivity Services.
You can now specify an access web app table row from within your document library in sharepoint.
4. In Access, link a table to the sharepoint document library.
5. Edit the default created datasheet from your linked table, to include the fields you wish to display. Include the field that is used for your field name in the document library - it has a hyperlink included in it.
6. In the view form for your original table (step 1), add a subview, specifying the datasheet from step 5 and linking by the field id that should now be shared between your original table and the linked sharepoint document library.
You can now see the files attached to the table item, including a hyperlink in the file field.
7. Add a hyperlink to your view form to the upload.aspx in the document library.
8. For added ease, you can pass the row id of your original table to the external content id of the document library within the url. This takes added javascript work on editform, but it makes it so that the user does not need to select the external
data. You can even hide the field if you wish, but I kept it visible so that I can edit within the library.
A true step by step would take a lot more time. If you're familiar with these subparts, this should make sense to you. I hope.

Trying to write code for clicking on the links that are in HTML table

Hi,
I have an application, where in I created a table test for one HTML table. The table test case is passed. Now I am trying to write some VBA code for clicking on the links that are in the table.
Please help me.
I was trying to write the following code:
Dim tbl As HTMLTable
' tbl = "window(index=0).Tag[TABLE](index=11)"
Dim tblrow As HTMLTableRow
For Each tblrow In tbl
tblrow.click
Next
but getting error as runtime error 424: Object required.
Is what I am doing is correct.
I also have another question regarding assigning the no of links to a integer.
Call RSWApp.WriteToLog("Number of links", objDocument.links.Length) ( i have this code from one of the forum entries).
This writes the links to the Results log. but is there a way to assign this value to an integer.
Thanks in advance.
Sailaja.

Hi,
Thanks.
Q1: I am able to copy all the links to a .csv file for databank. But not able to pass that variable through VBA code in order to click the links.
I used the following code to copy the links from the application to .csv file
Dim myFs As Scripting.FileSystemObject
Dim myFile As Scripting.TextStream
Set myFs = New Scripting.FileSystemObject
Set myFile = myFs.OpenTextFile("C:\Empirix\eTEST\DataBank\linksData.csv", ForWriting)
Q2: I was using the following code for clicking. ( This is different from above. I was trying other alternative without using databank.)
Dim myDoc As HTMLDocument
Dim myLink As HTMLAnchorElement
Set myDoc = RSWApp.om.GetTopDocument
For Each myLink In myDoc.links
If myLink.Id = "AppsNavLink" Then
myLink.click
End If
Next
The problem here is, The "clicking" is happening but not visible in the application. I have 70 links to click, after the test is passed, the cursor is pointing to the last link ( 70th link).
Please help me if I am doing wrong.
Thanks,
Sailaja.

Archivelink using IXOS - linking image document to business document

Hi all,
We are trying to link trip document (BUS2089) with image document of trip receipts in the Travel & Expenses workflow in HR.
The scanning of paper receipts is done by the IXOS server. The archivelinking is done using late storage using barcodes.
My question is when the scanning is done and the link is established between the trip document and the image document, is the event "assigned" of business object type "BARCODE" triggered.
I want to use this event in "wait for event" step in the workflow.

Hi Kiran
Not sure about two differnt system but on the same system same image can be linked to two different SAP documents vai function module ARCHIV_CONNECTION_INSERT. Field assignment: tick upper/lower case; archiv_id / arc_doc_id (ixos image address), ar_date, ar_object fileds to be assigned with TOA01 data for the image associagted with SAP document that is already linked. Fields mandant, object_id, sap_object, doc_type to be assigned with 2nd SAP document as it should appear in table TOA01.
Hope this helps.
