LiveCycle Document Generation and FileNet (IBM)

Has anyone had any experience with integrating LiveCycle
document generation to FileNet? If so, was the connector ES used?
Just curiuos for how that worked out and where it was done.

> Can anyone tell me why this is happening? Is it a licensing issue?
Yes, if you are using the express edition of LCDS you get this watermark.
You must purchase the full LiveCycle Data Services ES Enterprise license to
use the PDF feature.

Technical Details And Success Story of Adobe LiveCycle Document Security

First of all I am sorry if my subject is not related to the previous topics.
I am a master student of Media Informatics in RWTH Aachen University. Now I am taking a seminar course of Digital Management Rights, and I have a topic: Adobe LiveCycle Document Security to be presented next week.
I do not have details information on how it works/technical aspect about it that I really need to well prepare of my presentation. I have read all the document in adobe website but unfortunately I could not find much more details explanation.
I also need user stories when they use Adobe LiveCycle Document Security. I read also the success story from adobe web site but it has no success story of customer who use the specific product of Adobe LiveCycle Document Security.
Thank you for your help.

There is a good case study on Penn State that would probably make a good addition to your presentation:

Document Generation Wizard - disregard picked Items for Delivery Notes

Hi,
We have a requirement from a customer whereby when they are creating Delivery Notes from Sales Orders via the Document Generation Wizard to exclude quantities of Items which have been picked on the Sales Order already.
E.g. Sales Order, Product XXXX for Qty 10.
Qty 5 has been Picked.
Document Generation Wizard is run with an option to create Delivery Note from Sales Order for qty 5 of XXXX
Thanks,
Caroline

Here is the other solution:
1. Using the draft document generator, you can generate 1 time all the invoices like draft, then you can write a query to display this invoices , then you ca put this query in the alert management to generate the report with this invoices montly when you want.....then you create the invoices that you want, this option is semi-automatic and can work good if you don't have a lot of invoices...
2. using Data tranfer workbench, you can configure a excel template with all the invoices ready to migrate to SBO with the DTW, also you can make a alert in SBO in order to make this activity in a day montly....this is more automatic.
3.writing "Simply" SDK project to generate this invoices... using the oinvoice SBO object to create automaticaly all the invoices that you want....you can use the draft table information in order to generate this invoices using SDK.
The 3 solutions above are meant to resolve problem relate to auto invoice process, you can think about it.

I tried to restore my iPod Touch 2nd generation and now it won't sync to itunes. on the screen it shows the usb end of the cord and the iTunes logo over it. Is it broken?

I tried to restore my ipod touch 2nd generation and now it won't sync to itunes. On the screen is the USB end of the cord and the iTunes logo over it.
I have turned it off and on, held the off button down and the select button down but it still comes up with that picture on the screen. Have I broken it?
Please help.
Mimi

It means the device is in recovery mode. You'll need to reconnect it to iTunes and restore it again.
You may need to connect it in recovery mode manually using the instructions in this Apple support document.

Add Button in Acrobat 9 Pro to Livecycle Document.

Hello everyone,
I have a problem that I am beating my head up against. In my company we have some pdf documents that have been created using LiveCycle for our "go green paperless movement" but we have hit a snag. We have some "virtual printers" in use with our document management software that work just as normal networked printers but instead capture an image of the document being printed and run OCR on our documents for record keeping. Each pdf document has its own virtual printer to recognize appropriate OCR templates to use. Therefor we have many virutal pritners for our many documents. We love our LiveCycle documents but, when attempting to use javascript to print to a particular network printer we have found our complication. We do not want to map the printers using windows or train our employees on adding network printers to their profile as there are so many and each document is assigned to a virtual OCR printer, we want the document to have an embedded button that automatically prints to it's assigned virtual printer.
If I open a document and edit it with Acrobat 9 Pro, I can simply place a button field and add this java code:
var pp=this.getPrintParams();
pp.interactive=pp.constants.interactionLevel.automatic;
pp.printerName="\\\\TOSHIBABILLING2\\pcl6";
this.print(pp);
and the system prints to the network printer perfectly. Yet if I use that same javascript in LiveCycle we get nothing. Further reading I found some details specifying that I cannot use this same scripting to print to the network printer using LiveCycle and such am at a loss.
I have tried open the form in Acrobat 9 Pro to edit it and just add the button using Acrobat Pro, but each time I edit the document it opens LiveCycle as the designer.
I was not sure which forum to use as this problem has been found between working with both programs. Can someone help me to either modify the code for LiveCycle, or to at least find a way to open the document in Acrobat 9 Pro to just add the print button to the LiveCycle form. Any and all assistance would be greatly appreciated.
~ Max

I can't open the Form Tools though is what I'm saying. When I open the document in Acrobat 9 Pro I have no form tools.
I have to go to [Forms] -> [Edit Forms in Designer] in order to open the form tools.
Only when I select to open in designer I do not get the Acrobat Pro Designer, it automatically opens the document in LiveCycle and I have no option or ability to change the document designer to Acrobat Pro.
Is there some way I can "Force" the docement to open in Acrobat 9 Pro designer JUST so I can add the print button?

DMS and Filenet

Hi! All,
We have a requirement at work which is to create PO attachments at the PO Item level. I'm new to DMS and I've read that DMS can be integrated with Filenet via SAP Archivelink and we already made several config changes in Archivelink and DMS. Here are my questions:
1) I noticed that business documents can be attached via "Services for Object" in the DMS txn (CV01N and CV02N). Id this the proper way? Also, the document is always in ALF format. How can this be changed to DOC or XLS?
2) Any ideas on how to attach a document to PO item level using DMS and Filenet?
Thank you all for your help.

Hai,
Acsap is used to connect the filnet, this is the filenet component for SAP - you have to pay it extra.

Document Generation in MSA - Make Word Doc Read-Only or PDF Documents

Hello,
The mobile sales client comes with an Document Generation tool to fill Word Document Templates with SAP data on demand.
Because of legal issues, we do not want to allow anyone to be able to modify the generated word document. Using the permission functionality of the word template is not working as it would prevent the Generator itself to fill in the data.
Is there any option to set the created Document to "Read-only" after the generation is finished or to convert the Word document on fly to a PDF version?
As I am not so experienced in VB I would appreciate any code examples.
Regards,
Andreas

Hi,
there are at least 2 different ways to implement your request:
- before and after the word document is created you can start a word makro (which e.g. disables the document); this would be done in the method "TextGeneration" of the underlying BO, e.g. BOSALESDOCGEN. The code is quite simple, in earlier Word versions it was sth like
WordObj.ToolsMacro sMacroname, 1
- you can call any 3rd party SW to convert the doc file to pdf, similar to this thread
[MSA "Cancel login" functionality;

Not able to select Business Partners in Document Generation Wizard

Hi
While i was trying to generate a consolidated A/R Invoice from deliveries in the step where i have select the business partners,some of the business partners are not in the selection list.These business partner's currency are defined as multicurrency.How to solve this issue.Since i want to generate documents for this business partners?

Hi,
In Document Generation Wizard,
Step 1 : You will create new Parameter set or select the existing
             parameter set.
Step 2 : You will be selecting the target Document and other relevant
             datas selection such as Posting date, Document date, Series
             etc.,
Step 3 : You will select the Document Types which are to be
             considered to generate the target Document. and Posting
             Date and Document Date.And you select the in which order
             the Document wizard to be sorted in Sort By selection.
Step 4 : In this step you will be choosing the Consolidated by or No
             consolidation. If you choose Consolidate by, then we choose
             whether it should be consolidated by Ship- to - Address
              and/or Payment Terms and/or Payment method.
Step 5 : Now you must select the Business partner range in selection
            critieria and Customer group in it. If the data already exists in
            the table then clear it and select the business partner freshly.
Step 6 :You will be selecting the messages and alerts
Step 7 :You must save and execute the document wizard.
I hope this will help you.

Withholding Tax for Document Generation Wizard

Hi,
                          I have defined Withholding tax for my customers.When I try to create the A/R Invoices through Doc.Generation Wizard,the system is giving the error message-'Withholding tax is missing.'But I am unable to assign any W/Holding tax in the delivery.Can somebody give suggestions?
               Thank u.
                Regards,
                Sekar

Hi Sekar,
I Reproduced the same scenario till delivery and used Doc. Gen wiz as target document as A/R Invoice it worked fine.
Settings BP and Item both we set to Witholiding tax Liable. The Invoice had withholdig tax amout added generated by the DGW.
Could you check in for the list of BP in DGW (Document generation wizard)
Business Partner --> Accounting tab --> Tax sub-tab --> WT taxes allowed and check if you have one WT checked.
Let meknow if this works.

Rakesh

Merge two LiveCycle documents.

I imported a Word Document into LiveCycle. I was almost finished, when I needed to change the look of
a couple of pages. I edited the Word version, deleteting lines and text and then converted the necessary pages to a LiveCycle document. I can 'extract' the 3 pages I don't want, but have no option to insert the new document file. I also cannot rearrange the pages in the origianl LiveCycle document. Any suggestions, other that starting over?

I am a newbie and mostly self-taught. Attached is one page that has the underlines. What I am trying to do is to get rid of the underlines that came over from the Word Document and replace the first 3 columns with check boxes and a fill-in box on the final column.
( I had to Google XFA doc to get an idea of what it is) In the XML page, I didn't see any code that indicated underlining -- just bold and italic.

Cannot see BP in all currencies in Document generation

Dear All,
Our customer is on SAP2007A PL45, SQL2008, 3rd party add-on, CA localization. This issue is not associated with the add-on and the localization. I tried with / without our add-on. I tried in CA and US localization. I tried in SAP2007 and SAP8.8. So this looks like a system behavior.
When I run document generation >> target AR invoice >> source delivery >> Choose BP
I found if a BP is all currencies, it will not in the list.
I've let our customer know this is a system behavior. Can anybody let me know why SAP doesn't allow us to use thsi tool for a BP in all currencies? Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Yuka

Thanks for the reply Gordon. I can add the DN to IN manually (copy to / copy from).
In Document Generation Wizard, step 5 or 8, it asks us choose customer. I click add customers >> code from... to... (It is a CFL). I click the choose from list, in that list, I should have all my customers. However, any customer in all currencies, not in the list. If this is a system behavior, I would like to know why.
Regards,
Yuka

NetWeaver and FileNet

Hi,
Does anybody have any info about:
1. Comparison between NetWeaver's Content Management and FileNet's Web Content Management.
2. Integration between Netweaver and FileNet's Web Content Management.
Any info will help me.
Warm Regards,
Manish

This reply may be a little old but someone else may find this helpful. Answers to your questions.
1. FileNet's Enterprise Content Management (as oppose to Web) is far superior content management when compared to NW Content Management. Below are just a few points.
- Better version control
- Ability to create unique document and folder classes
- Metadata (master data) not limited to SAP standards
- Document based workflows as opposed to business process workflows
2. Integration can be achieved via FileNets web service or Java API. FileNet normally recommend FileNet ACSAP (application connector for SAP) but please consider this carefully. It'll only work for basic archivelink integration for some modules of R/3 only. Try it with anything else and you'll hit a wall with FileNet when it comes to support. They won't support it.
Last tip. There is very little information about ACSAP out there. Don't listen to what your FileNet sales rep tells you. Speak to an ACSAP developer if you can.
Hope this helps.
Cheers

Log Message:
* Fixed deprecation warnings with AST generation and a Repeater RTE
caused by revision 4709.
tests Passed: checkintests, mxunit repeater, asc-tests
Needs QA: YES
Needs DOC: NO
Bug fixes: SDK-16288, SDK-18986
API Change: NO
Reviewer: Corey, Pete F.
Code-level description of changes:
asc/src/java/macromedia/asc/embedding/LintEvaluator.java
Added ignoreSynthesizedCode variable and setter.
Modified warning() to only skip synthetic code when
ignoreSynthesizedCode is false. This allows us to report
deprecation warnings when using AST generation with Mxml
documents.
compiler/src/java/flex2/compiler/as3/As3Compiler.java
Modified analyze4() to set the LintEvaluator's
ignoreSynthesizedCode flag to false.
compiler/src/java/flex2/compiler/mxml/lang/StandardDefs.java
Added CLASS_REPEATER_DOT.
compiler/src/java/flex2/compiler/mxml/rep/init/VisualChildInitializer.java
Modified getAssignExpr() and generateAssignExpr() to code gen the
initializeRepeater() call. This required changing the return type
of generateAssignExpr() from ExpressionStatementNode to
StatementListNode.
compiler/src/java/flex2/compiler/mxml/rep/init/ValueInitializer.java
Removed initializeRepeater() related code gen from
getDefinitionBody() and generatedDefinitionBody().

Updated to reflect change to generateAssignExpr() signature
required by VisualChildInitializer.

PLD settings in Document Generation Wizard

I have set the document properties in the PLD for a document so that it will print 3 copies. Number of copies is set to 3 and the Use Sys Print Pref box is NOT ticked off. When the document, in this case an Invoice, is generated and automatically printed by running a session of Document Generation Wizard, only one copy prints. If I generate the invoice within SAP manually, three copies print. Document generation wizard recognizes the landscape setting in the PLD but not the number of copies. Is this a bug?

You may call it a Missing functionality. I am afraid it is by system design. You know, if you need create >100 documents by one run, 3 copies each may kill the process all together.
Thanks,
Gordon

Et_FORM_DATA_ADD event with Document Generation Wizard

In B1 2007 UI API, the et_FORM_DATA_ADD event doesn't get triggered with Document Generation Wizard. So, if the user using Document Generation Wizard to generate A/R invoice, how does my program get notified. If they use the A/R invoice form, we will get et_FORM_DATA_ADD event.
Thanks,
David

Hi,
You can use the SBO_SP_PostTransactionNotice stored procedure in order to call your code and do the required actions.
You can find more information on how to do it at the document https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/e991e2b9-0901-0010-0395-ef5268b00aaf and also you can have a look to the DIEventService tool that can help you coding it at https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/53cefa6a-0a01-0010-cd8e-e7c189cb6519.
Hope it helps
