Services for Object: attached documents/ links cannot be deleted

Dear SAPfriends,
The deletion button at the attachment list of "Services for Object" does not work. Eventhough it seems that the documents/ links/ notes have been removed from the object (i.e. Purchase order, material etc), when you exit and re-enter at the attachment list the documents are still there.
I tried to delete them from OAER, still the same.
Any ideas?
Yr help will be very valuable.
Kind Regards,
Elly Leondi

Hello Mauro,
Thanks for yr reply.
That was the problem.
Thanks again.

Services for Objects Attachement List Display Note not Viewable

Hi Experts!
Good day! I'm trying to display a note in FK03 (related to Services for Objects - Attachment List) and I only see white screen pop up window. No message and text information. When I tried to use another PC I can successfully view it.
Is there's a plugin that I may need to install?
Your help will be greatly appreciated.

Hi Marty
It is my understanding that the IXOS licensing is based on users retrieving of documents not necessarily the viewer so the licensing implications of having non-IXOS viewers accessing documents using the generic archivelink viewer is still likely to result in licensing implications if an audit is conducted at any stage.
The transaction for specifying the viewer is the OAA3 and OAG4.

How to link Employee-Trip with "Services for Object" Attachment.

Hello SAPients.
This is the scenario: I enter the TCode TRIP, enter a personnel number and hit enter, then click on the 'Subsequent Activities' link, then click on the button 'Services for Object', then click on the 'Attachment List' button, I see a list of attachments for the object.
The question is, does anybody knows the table relations to get from 'Employee-Trip' to this attachment list? I know that some of the information I need of the attachment list is stored in table SOOD. But I can't find a way to link from 'Employee-Trip' to the attachment list in SOOD.
Any help will be greatly appreciated <REMOVED BY MODERATOR>
Thanks .

GOS - Services for Object attachment icon

I may be posting this in the wrong forum, but my question is this. Is the Services for Object button ICON supposed to change colors or something when there is an attachment? How can you tell if there is an attachment for the object?

Thanks for the reply. This is true, what you say. But I was talking about the the Services for Object Icon. I want to know if an attachment exists without having to click on on the button. I would expect the button to change colors or something if there is an attachment.

MIGO - Services of object (Attach document) doesn't work

Hello Everyone
I am using SAP netweaver 7.
When Using MIGO, I can see the Services of Object button to add attachment and notes.
When I am trying to attach a new document or even create a note, the system give me a message that the document has been created but the "Attachment list" option is still not available.
So I cannot see the document that I just attached.
Trying with transaction VL02N, VF02 and other transactions, it does work.The Services of object is working fine. I can add attachment and notes and of course I can retreive it.
Furthermore, the table SOOD add a record when I am attaching a PC document in MIGO.
Is anyone have an idea why, in MIGO, the creation of an attachment or a note, doesn't activate the "Attachment list" option?
Regards
dstj

Hello everyone
I just found what the problem was.
When creating a good receipt / purchase order in MIGO, you can attach documents and notes but you cannot see what you did until you performed a post and go back to the display mode of the posted document.
Here are the steps.
1. Perform the reception.
2. Add the document, using the services of object
3. post
4. Go back in display material document and enter the document that you've just created
5. Go to the Services of object, than the "Attachment List" will be available and will list the documents that you attached.
It is very annoying to have to post before we can validate what have been added to the attachment or the notes.
As far as I am concerned, we should be able to see the attachment and notes as soon as it as been created.
That way, we can validate, before posting, if all the work has been done correctly, specifically when you have been disturbed in process.
Furthermore, based on my observation, if we are attaching documents and not performing the post, the documents have been loaded in SAP database but will never be linked or deleted from it.
I hope that is not happening to often otherwise that could that a lot of space.

Need to find table for dispute case attachments in service for objects

Hi All,
I have a requirement where i need to find some tables which will hold details of dispute case attachments. After a dispute case is created using UDM_DISPUTE transaction, the concerned person may open that dispute case and can attach some documents/any attachments using services for objects icon at the top left corner of the screen. All i want to know is, in which table (tables related to service object) this attachment details will be stored. Even if the attachments details are stored in service objects related tables, there should be some link for this attachment and dispute case. Please let me know if any of you have some pointers and it would be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Srilakshmi.

Hi a®s,
Thanks for your reply. An entry is getting created in this table SRGBTBREL whenever an attachment/URL/notes is attached to a dispute case using services for object and the link between this table and dispute case table SCMG_T_CASE_ATTR is INSTID_A. This field holds the value of CASE GUID from SCMG_T_CASE_ATTR. Now my requirement is whenever an attachment is present in a dispute case i need to set a customized checkbox present in UDM_DISPUTE screen so that when an user opens the dispute case he/she can understand some attachment is present for this case by seeing the checkbox. I found the SCMG* badi's are not helpful to set the checkbox. Please let me know if you have any idea on how to implement it.
Thanks in advance,
Srilakshmi.

Content server for Document attachment through "services for object" Icon.

Guys,
I have typical problem in installation of Content server for storing external documents.
We all know that we can attach the document in SAP using the icon SERVICES FOR OBJECT. By this we can attach the document to the specific object we want.
-Since my client wants only document attachment method not to completely implement SAP DMS, I proposed this method of attaching documents through services for object method.
-If documents are stored though services for object ,The attached document will directly get stored in sap database(correct me if I am wrong) while in DMS it ask you to select the storage location while u check in for any document
-By storing the doc thru "services for object " For long run when we store the documents in sap database our system will drastically get slow down.
-In this regard I have a plan to incorporate external storage server.
-Now I should know that how I should customize content server configuration so that the attachment through services for object will store into this content server I need to know how to define Client, Content Category, Content Repository, Document Area, Physical Machine, IP Address, Port. (OACT & OAC0)
I appreciate for immediate solution and Points will be rewarded for sure.
Regards,
Murali.S

Hi Murali,
Don't Worry, its possible,
All attachments can be stored in SAP Content Server also, but through archiving process.
Set up a database storage system.
Preparation
Make sure that the HTTP plugin is active.
Transaction SMICM, "Display Services" function key (shift F1)). The list of services must contain a port other than 0 for HTTP.If not, you must adjust the relevant profile parameter.
Typical entry:
icm/server_port_0 PROT=HTTP, PORT=1080, TIMEOUT=900
Make sure that the /sap/bc/contentserver service is active.
If no user is defined, then use transaction SU01 to create a new user. Use the "System" user type.Assign
the SAP_ALL and SAP_NEW profiles to the user. (Eg: HRUSER/PLMUSER/PPUSER etc)
Transaction SICF, select: default_host - sap - bc -contentserver. Select the function to display/change the service. Make sure that a user is defined.
Using the relevant data from the newly created user, maintain the anonymous logon data for the
/default_host/sap/bc/ service and save & activate the changes in transaction SICF. Double click on content server and give the user name which has been created (HRUSER/PLMUSER/PPUSER/MMUSER etc)
Check the system PSE.
Start transaction STRUST. Expand the system PSE. The system PSE must be "green" for each application
server.
Determine a suitable exchange directory.
The exchange directory must be accessible from each application server. If all application servers are running on the same platform (for example, Windows), one network directory that is accessible on all application server (for example,
server\share) is sufficient. You can generally use the global directory
(profile parameter DIR_GLOBAL).You can use the RSPARAM report to determine the profile parameters.
Setting up the storage
Create a table for storing the data. Using transaction SE11, create a copy of the SDOKCONT1
table. If you want to create the repository database, you can name the table ZCONT_DB, for example. Save the
table as a local object. Activate the table.
Create a repository.
Use transaction OAC0 to create a new repository.
Use the following parameters:
Repository Max. two characters, for example, Z1
DocArea: ARCHLINK
Storage type: R/3 database
Storage subtype: normal
Version no. : 0046
Contents table <table name> for example: ZCONT_DB
Exchange directory <directory name> for example:
server\share\
Make sure that the exchange list ends with a \ (or /on Unix).If you are using a variety of platforms, you must use transaction FILE to define a suitable logical file name and use this name. Save the settings.
1. Maintain view table TOAAR_C, via SM31
 Cross client table displayed as information, forget it
2. In field 'StSytm' you must entered 'Z1' as your system need, or anything that you need but you must configure HR Archive link too.
3. In field 'Arch.path' (direct above Spoolpath), entered path in your system, this real path in your operating system. May be you should confirm to your Basis consultant where exactly you could store picture files. So if you enter '/', your file exists at root directory at your UNIX system.
4. Choose 'File store' radio button
5. Save.
First
1. You have to create a number range for SAP ArchiveLink.
 IMG: Basis Components-> Basis Services -> SAP ArchiveLink -> Basic Settings-> Maintain number ranges
 (Trxn OANR). Create number range 01 from 0000000001 to 9999999999 without the external number flag.
2. Document type HRICOLFOTO must exist with document class JPG.
 IMG: Basis Components->Basis Services->SAP ArchiveLink->System Settings->Maintain document types
 (Table TOAVE, Trxn OAC2).
3. Document type HRICOLFOTO must be linked to object type PREL and Infotype PA0002.
 IMG: Personnel Management->Personnel Administration->Tools->Optical archiving->Set up Optical Archiving
 in HR. (View V_T585O, no Trxn). In the first two columns there are minuses, the third (Date) has
 a plus - don't put a flag in the check box.
4. Check which content repository (Archive) is linked to document type HRICOLFOTO and object type
 PREL. IMG: Basis Components->Basis Services->SAP ArchiveLink->Basic Settings->Maintain Links (Table
 TOAOM_C, Trxn).
Test
Test the repository.
Use transaction SE38 to start the RSCMSTH0 report. Specify your repository (i.e. Z1) and start the test.
The report must run without errors. If no problems occurred, you can use the new repository with Archive Link after you carry out the Archive Link Customizing. If problems do occur, check whether one of the related
notes helps.
For More Details :
http://service.sap.com/archivelink.

NOTE:- Screen Shots are missing, i was not able to paste here, One more thing is we did this for uploading a PHOTOS into Content Server, Similarly you have to create a REPOSITORY and Z-TABLE to bring all the Attachments from all the selected Objects and then route them to the CONTENT REPOSITORY.
Your Senior ABAP guy would help you in this, if not i may try to help you more by monday.

Attaching a document to notification using service for object

hellow members,
i look for a table to let me know if a document
is attached to specific object (in my case it"s
a notification).
best regards,
avi
Edited by: avi koren on Jul 16, 2008 9:40 AM

Hellow Johannes,
thank you for your repling.
i don"t think that this is the direction.
In lots of objects in the SAP like a notification or a material,a button call "service for object" is available provide
some functions like
document attaching.
How i can see this attachments?
I think that the answer should be close to the table SOOD.

Services for Object - Store Business Documents (issue with XLSX files)

Hi,
We are using the Services for Object > Store Business Document to be able to drag and drop files into (for example) Sales Inquiry, Sales Order, Sales Quotations etc.
Within OAC2 we have set up the global document types and these have been linked to the relevant Object Types and Content Repositories in OAC3. We have also set up the Content Repository as Document Area 'ARCHLINK'.
The ArhciveLink Basic Settings in OAG1 have the 'Always Copy Document Class from Document Type' set under Storage Settings.
The issue we are having is with XLSX document types. When we drag and drop the XLSX documen type using the Store Business Document the file is stored against the Sales Order but when you come to view the attachments MS Excel opens but an error message appears saying 'Excel cannot open the file '******' because the file format or file extension is not valid. Verify that the file has not been corrupted and that the file extension matches the format of the file'?
We have reviewed SAP notes 1925897, 1739026 and 1145885 however non appear to give me a clear answer as to why this is happening?
I have found that if we unselect the option 'Always Copy Document Class from Document Type' in OAG1 then we can open the XLSX files.
As we have a significant amount of documents attached to various objects, what would be the implications of making this change agianst existing records and new records?
Any advice on this issue would be greatly appreciated.
Gary B

Hi David,
No joy I'm afraid!!
I added entry 'xlslx' with the relevant MIME Type, Application and Description into table TOADD for the ArchiveLink settings and also this entry was already in tables SDOKMIME and SDOKFEXT for KPro.
I then following the process via the Services for Object within VA12 (Change Inquiry) to then Create > Store Business document > Select the relevant Document Type > Drag and Drop the XLSX file into the empty box.
I then saved the record and tried to view the attachement but I am still getting the same message 'Excel cannot open the file '******' because the file format or file extension is not valid. Verify that the file has not been corrupted and that the file extension matches the format of the file'?
Our client is on componet SAP_BASIS release 701 Support Level 0014 and Support Package SAPKB70114 and I can see that note 1237688 is for SAPKB70112?

Services for Object (GOS) Attachement List not showing after attachment

Hi All,
I have created a new entry for the Generic Object Service List and this links to a copy of the CL_GOS_SRV_ATTACHMENT_CREATE class (Create attachment) with some additional logic. However, after attaching a file, the "Attachment List" does not become available until after I re-enter the transaction. The attachment list is showing the correct attachments.
After some (understatement...) investigation, I found that even if I try and link the new service to a unchanged copy of the CL_GOS_SRV_ATTACHMENT_CREATE service in SGOSATTR, it is not working. It is attaching fine, but the "Attachment List" entry in the Services for Object Menu is still greyed out. If I attach the original class CL_GOS_SRV_ATTACHMENT_CREATE to the newly created entry it works fine. e.g. straight after I attach a file to the transaction, the menu entry becomes available.
I can't find where the re-draw of the GOS menu happens and hence can not determine what is going wrong. Does anybody know if this is part of the Kernel or is this actually done in ABAP ?
Am I missing something ? Debugging including system debugging for two days now and can't find it... very frustrating.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Wouter.

Hi Wouter,
I had originally posted to ask if you had resolved this since I was facing the same issue, but then deleted my post when I was able to get it working. Sorry, I didn't mean to initiate a flurry of activity in such an old thread.
My scenario is I created a new GOS service entry in table SGOSATTR using transaction SGOSM. My new service uploads attachments to an external document management system via a call to a RESTful web service. The class I use in the SGOSM entry is a custom subclass of CL_GOS_SRV_URL_CREATE.
I resolved this issue by taking a look at what CL_GOS_SRV_URL_CREATE does in its EXECUTE method. The key bits to refresh the GOS Attachment List with the new attachment are...
raise event commit_required. " if SGOSM has the commit flag checked
raise event service_succeeded
       exporting eo_service = me.
These events tell any subscribers to go do their thing-- which in this case includes a refresh of the GOS Attachment List. So in the EXECUTE method of my custom subclass, after I call function BINARY_RELATION_CREATE, I raise these events...
CALL FUNCTION 'BINARY_RELATION_CREATE'
   EXPORTING
       obj_rolea     = gs_object
       obj_roleb    = rel_doc
       relationtype = 'URL'
   EXCEPTIONS
       OTHERS       = 1.
CASE sy-subrc.
   WHEN 0.
       MESSAGE s043(sgos_msg). " The attachment was successfully created
       RAISE EVENT commit_required.
       RAISE EVENT service_succeeded
             EXPORTING eo_service = me.
   WHEN OTHERS.
       MESSAGE s042(sgos_msg). " The attachment has not been created
ENDCASE.
I hope this is helpful to you even though your initial implementation was a while back. Thanks for replying to my question though!!
Cheers,
Amy

Services for Object in Maintenance order can not link

Hello,
"Services for object" in Maintenance Order can not link to share point.
Linking documents from the C drive or Global drive is successful but if SHAREPOINT is used, it fails
When trying to link to a Word document on our Sharepoint... It fails... when I'm in an order... it gives me an error... (displayed on the attached Word file...) and when I'm working within a document... (CVN02) it merely links to my C:\ drive which won't work...
We need to link to our "master" Sharepoint (web based) documents.
Please suggest the solution.
