SAP DMS-SAP KM connector

Hi Experts
I need some information on SAP DMS and SAP KM connector.I need to pull the data which is stored in the content server to SAP KM.Is there any built in connector in SAP which will connect to SAP DMS and SAP KM.
I heard that there is a Business package in SAP which is used to connect both.
Apart from the business package, Is there any JAVA API's are available to retrieve data from content server.
Thanks in advance

  • Use of SAP DMS & SAP Archive Link both together

    Dear DMS Experts,
    I am little bit new to DMS and have very less idea about functionalities and capabilities of SAP DMS & Archive Link.
    I have got few questions:
    1. Is it possible to use both SAP DMS & SAP Archive link togther.
    For example, there are certain objects like GRN, Invoice, Employee etc which are not supported in standard DMS.
    However, they are supported in archive link.
    But at the same time, there is requirement of setting and resetting of some statuses of the documents attached with PM notification or with PR / PO. This functionality is available with SAP DMS.
    So I want to know, is it possible to use SAP archive link for few objects and SAP DMS for other objects.
    2. In case of SAP archive link configuration, we need to define link between Object Type, Document type and content repository
    in node "Edit Links" under "Basic Customizing" under "ArchiveLink".
    Here we can not use all the content repository which we have created normally. But we can use only limited content repository ID.
    How does system decides, which content repository id can be used.? Where can i define that.?
    3. With SAP archive link, can i store my documents in the same content repository in which I am storing my all the documents with SAP DMS. I mean to say, both the SAP DMS & Archive link, can share the same content repository.
    We are having a seperate content server and requirement is to store all the documents in content server only.
    Would request you all to please help.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Mihir Popat

    ..is it possible to use SAP archive link for few objects and SAP DMS for other objects...
    Yes,you may use Archivelink for static documents that would be required purely for reference while DMS can be configured to handle documents that are more dynamic in nature (that require status change,version,revisions et-al)
    ..both the SAP DMS & Archive link, can share the same content repository.We are having a seperate content server and requirement is to store all the documents in content server only...
    Yes,you may store DMS and Archivelink documents can reside on the same Content Server.Content repository is a logical area/partition,hence you may create one content repository for DMS and another for Archivelink(on the same Content Server).

  • SAP DMS - SAP ECC network traffic

    Hi all,
    I have the following situation:
    The SAP ECC servers are hosted outside my company and we are planning to install a SAP DMS server.
    We have 2 options: host the SAP DMS outside or install SAP DMS in our datacenter.
    When the SAP user attaches or reads a file to/from SAP DMS, how is the network traffic ?
    Is there any traffic fom SAP ECC to SAP DMS or the file goes to/from DMS from/to end-user ?
    How SAP DMS impacts my WAN ?
    Best Regards,
    Leonardo.

    Leonardo,  I have done some research /  trouble shooting and architectural changes to raise the upload / download speeds, there are several dependencies like Network, Application, hardware etc but to your question:
    First of all, DMS is a core functionality of ECC and utilizes both ECC for execution and Content Servers (recommended for Obvious performance reasons) for Data Storage. For your case I recommend that you host Content Server at the Data Center (assuming you have no other option) and have a Cache Server installed Onsite. (This requires minimal maintenance). When the user uploads a file the traffic is high as the entire File needs to be transferred to the data center, on the other hand Cache server (if installed onsite) considerably reduces the retrieval time.
    Again having said above there are several other parameters that could affect your upload / download speeds.
    Hope you'll find this useful, let me know if you have further questions.
    regards

  • Difference btw SAP Records managements and SAP DMS?

    can some one pls tell me wat is the difference between records management and sap dms...
    thank you.

    Hi Vivek,
    perhaps some remarks to SAP Records Management. SAP Records Management (and SAP Case Management) is a powerful infrastructure for creating cross-component application since you can organize any SAP and Non-SAP information object as a record (tree) in a role based view.
    One classical application is the HR personnel record. You collect documents (archived documents as well as DMS documents (with versioning)) together with personnel master data and other information. For each employee there is a record instance.
    Another application is a machine record for a machine producer. It is a collection of SD objects and of engineering documents.
    A record can also be business partner record collecting information about the business partner and for example other records that refer to the business partner.
    Since SAP Records Management is designes as a Service Provider Framework you can integrate any kind of information objects both in SAP and in non-SAP systems.
    So, also SAP DMS services can be wrapped as SAP Records Management service provider and hence be used in SAP Records Management applications.
    The focus of SAP DMS is the handling of engineering documents and their behaviour in production. Based on SAP Knowledge Provider it is more a document management service.
    SAP Records Management is stressing the aspect of building cross component applications and their business flow. SAP already provides a lot of standard service providers but you can also build your own service providers and hence integrate your own objects.
    For more information, see the documentation and get a first flavour by starting the transactions ORGANIZER and SRMREGEDIT.
    By the way in contrast to SAP DMS, SAP Records Management is part of NetWeaver.

  • What is the easiest way to download a document from SAP DMS with C#?

    Hi,
    I've been sifting through this forum and looked at various posts and sample code, but so far my quest hasn't been fruitful.
    What is the easiest way to download a physical document file from SAP DMS using C#? I'm using the NCo 3 (SAP .NET
    Connector 3).
    Requirements
    - As few dependencies as possible (not adding or changing functionality in SAP)
    - C# code (MS Visual Studio 2012)
    - SAP Environment: NetWeaver 7.4.0
    Thanks for all help.
    Regards,
    Frank

    We've been using BAPI_DOCUMENT_CHECKOUT2, but there seems to be a limitation. From what I've found on Google, you must enable the use of the SAPGUI through the flag UseSAPGUI when connecting to SAP.  It works, but my issue is that when I use it on a web server, I end up with some error when trying to start the GUI.  There is very little recent information for this out there right now.

  • Full text search in Filenet via SAP DMS

    Hello experts,
    Hopefully you can help me with the following. My customer has SAP DMS and uses FileNet (v4.0) as content repository. They use Verity as tool for full text search (SAP and non-SAP). Verity has it's own user interface / search screen. Question is if it is possible for SAP (easy)DMS users to do full text search (via CV04N or EasyDMS searchscreen) and search in the FileNet repository (directly with TREX or via Verity). The customer has the ACSAP connector up and running.
    I've implemented TREX with SAP content server and index server before, but I'm not familiar with FileNet possibilities in that area, so hopefully someone has experience with this?
    thanks in advance, Erwin

    Dear  NAG
    For text search you have activate TREX Server
    follow the steps
    Set TREX
    A:- Transaction: SRMO
    Install TREX , and create RFC destination to connect to
    TREX.
    B:- Transaction: SKPR06
    Check the flag to Document Area "DMS" to utilize this document area for
    document search.
    For Indexing
    A: Transaction: SE38
    Run the report program "RSTIRIDX_REINDEX" to create Index. 
    Also, run the report program "RSTIRIDX" to create Index.
    Set mime type for the text search
    A: SPRO --
    Cross-Application Components > Document Management System > General
    Data > Settings for Storage Systems > Create MIME types for full
    text search,
    Enter MIME type like
    "application/msword",
    "application/pdf".
    Retrive document via Test Search
    A: Then, test retrieval document search using
    Transaction: SKPR07.
    Enter Document Class "DMS_PCD1", Language "EN", Document Class "DMS",
    and try "TEST search".

    Hi,
    I have installed SAP GUI  for Windows 7.2 (Compilation 2) and Crystal Report 2008 SP2 then following by installed SAP Integration Kits 3.1 SP3 on my workstation. However, when i launch my Crystal Report designer, it do shows SAP toolbar however when i click on one of the icon (eg: Setting) the entire CR will hung and prompt me error and exit automatically.
    Beside that, i could not find any connector for SAP (Eg: SAP InfoSet, SAP BW Query and etc) when i create a new blank report by click on the New Connection.
    Appreciated anyone know this could assist on this.
    Thank You.
    Regards,
    CK

    Hi Ingo,
    Thanks for your prompt reply. I will sort it out and ensure the release version will be the same as Inter Kits.
    By the way, i saw your post regarding the Integration Kits installation and configuration. However, i still need some clarification; appreciated you could assist me on this.
    I have installed SAP BOXI3.1 SP3 on an LINUX machine (Redhat Enterprise 5) and the server was running fine without connecting to BW or SAP eCIBS.
    Now, i have to establish the connectivity to BW (InfoCuve and BW Query) and SAP eCIBS system. As my customer requirement was required to using WEBI, CR and Xcelsius for connecting to BW for getting the data and then using scheduler in BOE for performing report distribution. Some of the report will connecting to SAP eCIBS directly and that will using our Client's machine for creating the report (using CR2008) and then publish to the BOE platform for report scheduling and distribution.
    My question, i wish to install SAP Inter Kits and downloaded Inter. Kits for SAP Solution 3.1 SP3 from service market place. When i refer to the document from help.sap.com; there are couple of section but i wish to know which are the perquisite section that i wish to install and configure?
    Eg: System Requirement which are installing SAP RFC SDK and SAP JCO SDK into my BOE server, then following my create a logon token. How to to that? It also require to install SAP Java Connector and SAP GUI, does these two available for LINUX OS as well?
    The steps in doc was confuse, appreciated your kind help.
    THanks.

  • Some questions on SAP DMS

    Hello
    some questions on SAP DMS:-
    - can versions of same document be shown graphically. ?
    - can links be created for documents. can we make sure that links are not broken when document is moved ?(links to document on 1st location shall not be broken)
    - is there a notification mechanism(user can recieve e-mail when document gets changed)
    - is there a review mechanism, before doc. is archived.(sort life cycle)
    Thanks

    Hi Shovon,
    1. can versions of same document be shown graphically?
    You can display all existing versions of a document info record by using the menu 'Extras' >> 'Versions'. Then you will see all existing document version for this specific document number. Further you will see which is the current version at the moment.
    2. can links be created for documents. can we make sure that links are not broken when document is moved ?(links to document on 1st location shall not be broken)
    I'm not quite sure what you mean by links to documents. If you mean linking document info records together, I can confirm that this works also in DMS. You can maintain the object DRAW for object links in the customizing and then you will be able to link one document info record to another. The data for all document info records is stored in table DRAW.
    If you are talking about originals which are linked to document info records, please note that if you check in an original the system creates a unique LOIO- and PHIO-ID which is stored in the Content Server and in the database tables DMS_DOC2LOIO and DMS_PHIO2FILE. But there are also different reports to migrate original data from one content Server to another (e.g. DMS_RELOCATE_CONTENT).
    3. Is there a notification mechanism(user can recieve e-mail when document gets changed)
    Yes you can activate an event type linkage for object
    DRAW     CHANGED     DOKST
    DRAW     CHANGED     DWNAM
    in transaction SWE2. Here you just have to set the flag for 'Type linkage' (linkage activated). Then everytime the document is changed a notification is sent to the entered USER of this document info records.
    4. Is there a review mechanism, before doc. is archived.(sort life cycle)
    Normally there is no special lifecycle. You can control this by maintaining a released status and if there are more versions always version with the release status is the current one. But there is no specific date when the document info record expires or something like that.
    Best regards,
    Christoph

  • How to open files from the SAP DMS (DOC Mgt. System) ?

    Hello All,
            I making the Transaction CV04N in BSP.
    When I execute this CV04N I should give a DOC Nr and the list is generated for this DOC.Now in the List if I select one Record and then Press Display Icon then the content of this list is opened in a new window in it's respective format (PDF,Word,GIF,Image file  etc).These are stored in the SAP DMS.
            I want to open a file from this SAP DMS .
    This can be done in ABAP using the standard FMs. But in BSP we can't use these FMs as it will call a screen.
    The Fm which I'm using is " DOCUMENT_SHOW_DIRECT ".
    In Report prog. To this FM I'll pass the
    a, DOC Type
    b, DOC Number
    c, Document part and
    d, Document version.
    then It'll directly open a PDF file in a new window.
    But in BSP how should I acheive this as the FM calls a screen internally.
    The content of the documents are stored in the DMS. Is there any TCODE or Table to get the files from the DMS ?
    How should I proceed ? can any one help me out.....
    Regards,
    Deepu.K

    Hello All,
             I found the FM : <b>CVAPI_DOC_OPEN_CAD</b> which wil return the file path.
    But when I execute this in my BSP since the FM internally calls a screen it fails.
    But can anyone tell me the alternative for this.
    Should I create a FM omitting the GUI code ?
    I found one more thread which says that I can use classes starting with cl_gos*.
    But all the classes use a gui.
    Dowload a document from R/3 DMS to BSP page
    Am I wrong in the interpretation of the logic from the above thread ?
    Please suggest me .
    I too went thru the BSP Applications <b>CVAW_ENTIRE, CVAW_DOCUMENT_DISPLAY.</b>
    But these are used to display only the <b>thumbnails.</b>
    There is no code for displaying other formats like PDF,XLS etc.
    Please correct me if I'm wrong and let me know the correct path to solve my problem.
    Regards,

  • DMS Document upload: does it pass through sap DMS ?

    Dear All,
    We have a question concerning the transmission of documents from the client to DMS and the Content Server: does the document need to pass through the sap server ?
    Document upload (create document CV01N)
    Does the document go directly from the client to the Content server OR does it pass through the sap DMS before to be stored in the CS ?
    Document download (read document CV03N)
    Does the document go directly from the CS to the client OR does it pass through the sap DMS server ?
    This could be interesting to know for network performances.
    best regards,

    Hi Gurus
    is the cache server a default funtionality from the content server or any configuration is required from our part.
    is that the cache server acts as the RAM of our system?
    please explain the partitioning or biferfication of the Content server, as you told
    content server is divided into storage catagories and  this in turn in to content repositories,
    please  clarify below points,
    1)any server or PC can be made as Content server by insatalling the content server CD if iam right ?
    2) Practical and funtional benifits of partitioning content server into content repositories is it for authorization and storing data by naming convection or can it also help in copiying data from a specific content repository if needed, ( is content repositories a logical partition or practical partition like B,C,D, F drives of our PC hard disk)
    3) can /should there be multiple content server installation for a particular (production) client.
    4) Can Archiving  be done say by creating a separate content repository inside the same Content server, or is it mandatory to have a separate archiving server itself,
    please give some idea with examples
    Thanks and regards

  • Integrating FIM with SAP using web services connector

    Hi 
    I am implementing the FIM web services connector to integrate with SAP. The MS connector config guide for SAP documentation seems to me missing some content or at least I think it might be written for an earlier version of
    SAP than the version we are working with(different screenshots, options, etc). The version of SAP we have implemented is EHP6 for SAP ERP6 which I believe translates to ECC6.
    SAP web services have been configured and FIM performs successful discovery of the wsdl endpoint and BAPI operations as expected. Our issue is that FIM fails to run a full import. From the digging around web service config and error logs two observations comes
    out:
    1. FIM Full Import workflow does not render correctly through the web service configuration tool and complains of a duplicate attribute "xml:space is a duplicate attribute on line on line 424 on position 103". Review of the wsconfig generated by the
    webservice config tool points to an variable supplied to a construct the query to a BAPI of HR infotype 0006. Extract below:
    ...<InArgument x:TypeArguments="d:BAPIP0006L" xml:space="preserve">[If(Not IsNothing(addressInfo) AndAlso Not IsNothing(addressInfo.item), addressInfo.item, Enumerable.Empty(Of BAPIP0006L)()).
    OrderByDescending(Function(a) DateTime.ParseExact(a.VALIDBEGIN, dataSourceDateFormatValue, Nothing)).
    ThenByDescending(Function(a) Integer.Parse(a.RECORDNR)).FirstOrDefault()]</InArgument>...
    I can only guess that it means the query should keep the spaces within the string it passes to SAP but this is where my understanding stops.
    2. SAP returns errors about not implementing a BAPI EMPLOYEE_GETDATA function which is not part of the exposed BAPI operations. Well the obvious solution to this would be expose this missing operation (which is undocumented in MS config guide) however this
    BAPI is a core requirement to retrieve person information. I would be hugely surprised if this operation was not factored into the config. This makes me think that to understand this better I need to resolve issue 1 first and get the rendering sorted first. 
    Has anyone come across the above issues with a recent implementation with this connector? Or help point me in the right direction? 
    any help would be greatly appreciated!
    thanks!!

    Hi Joe,
    you most probably missed the sentence "Add the required BAPI’s in the function group and select those required BAPI’s and click continue." in the "Connector for SAP.docx" document on page 8. In other words your webservice does not provide the required
    BAPIs.
    In the "DefaultSAPECC_6.wsconfig" the workflows for import and export require specific BAPIs.
    Also make sure that your Service Definition has got the same name as in the documentation and the workflow template.
    I was fighting with this for the last 4 days but in the end got it working.
    Hope this helps

    How you are trying to check-in the docuement?
    Suggestion:
    1) Which version of ACAD you are using and Which version of ACAD Integration you are using.
    If you are using ACAD integration version 4.0.0.0 then please upgrade to ACAD integration version 4.5.0.0. Whichi is available in SAP Market Place.
    2) In your configuration, are you trying to create JPG Conversion? if so then please remove the trigger CreateAutoNeutralFile from the config.
    Create a new drawing and test the check-in functionality and let me know the result.
