Services for Object in Standard Portal iView

Hi Experts!!
We have TRIP in R/3 which we use to create Travel Expense. For a TE in R/3, we have Services for Object (where we can attach files n all). We are planning to get that while creating TE through Portal too. However in Portal we are using standard iView provided by SAP.
Is there any way to achieve this? Or, any suggestions related to this?
Your help is highly appreciable.

Hi Experts!!
Please suggest on this.

Services for Object Not Working in Portal

Hi Experts!!
We have created an iView for PR01 standard t-code. Now when we are testing it, we found that the button for Services for Object is being displayed on the page. But when trying to Create Attachment, it's not going further. Instead it's showing some message as 'Please wait. You will be forwarded automatically.This page had to be included for technical reasons.'
But nothing is happening later. It should provide me to enter the file path.
Can anybody suggest how I can get that? Your help is highly appreciable.

I had a similar problem using a different Javascript menu. If you take a look at the HTML generated by the portal and break it down into smaller sections you may find the HTML that is causing your Javascript not to load. It's a tedious task, but not all Javascript is the same. Note, if your javascript is using or manipulating the <div> tag. It must be relative positioned to an image or div or you may run into the problem of the javscript loading and displaying relative to the browser as opposed to your portlets.

Services for object doesn't work in an iView.

Hello all,
My company wants to use the "Services for Object" function from transaction MM03 inside the Portal but, as i created the iView, i noticed this function won't work.
The icon is there but after clicking it, nothing happens.
Has anyone ever had that kind of problem?
Thanks in advance,

Hi,
How many actions are there in your process?. Is it having only one action that is Web service?.
I think, The process should at least contain one UI action.
If your process is having multiple actions, there may problem with other actions. Test the web service action seperately to confirm this.
Thanks

My workflow is not listed in the GOS (Services for object)

Hello Experts,
I developed a workflow and linked the BO ZBUS2081. This is sub type of standard BO BUS2081. I am using the custom event INVOICEBLOCKED to trigger the workflow. The workflow is triggered propely when the invoce is created (with block) thru MIRO and I can see the workflow in SWEL or SWI6 or SWI14.
But, the workflow is not listed in the services for objects button of the invoice display using MIR4.
If I use the standard event 'BLOCKEDQUANT' as starting event, the workflow is triggered and I can view it in services for object.
In the table SWW_WI2OBJ has all entries about the workflow triggered using standard event or custom event.
How can I make the services for object in invoice list my workflow that was triggered using custom evet?
Appreciate your help.

Hi Siva
Thanks for marking this thread answered.....We are glad that your issue was solved :-) ....... But I do agree with Rick Bakker, the first correct answer was by Paul Bakker and I had just elaborated on that.
Please mark the first correct answer as the "green" one.

Retrieval of attachments with services for object in ME22n or ME23n

Hello experts,
I have a MM requirement where the user attaches some document in ME22n or ME23n via services for object functionality to a particular PO. Here the user wants to attach this document during sending of mail with ME9F to the vendor. First of all is it possible with the standard functionality of ME9F? or Requires some Zdevelopment. Anyone can guide me how to extract the attachment and send it with mail, does it require some configuration from functional side? I searched the forums but did not find the ways to extract.
Thanks in advance

Raj (SAP ABAP)

Hi Raj,
Did you find a way to extract the attachment?

Attachments to Notifications - using "Services for Object"

Hi All,
I have sucessfully created a VC application (7.0 sp13) to create a General Notification in R/3
using the BAPI - IQS4_CREATE_NOTIFICATION
Our users in R/3 4.7 use the button in the Top Left Hand corner of the Screen "Services for Object"
to attach MS Word documents to Notifcations. Using the Create Attachment option from the Services for Object toolbar that pops up when the button is clicked.
Has anyone else tried this or have any advice on how this can be done in VC - if you can recommend a BAPI that I can try or will this be a custom ABAP BAPI.
Thanks in advance for any advice you can offer.

Services for object in sap

Hi,
When I am enclosing some document or file in services for object in sap in me23n, how can I know that some object is attached without seeing the attachement list. Secondly if anyone want to delete the attachement he can delete, we want that the person who has attached the attachment should delete the attachement not anyother person. How to achive this.
Regards
Ishu

Hi, There is no standard report or transaction to get this other than looking at the object through the transaction that creates those attachments, also you can go through SAP OSS note 530792
Refer below link for creating a report for your requirement
http://it.toolbox.com/wiki/index.php/GOS_Finding_Attachments_or_Links_to_an_Object_in_SAP/ABAP
For second requirement it can be handled by Authorization, discuss with your basis guys

Services for Object - Create external document (url) 132 characters limit

Hello,
I have this requirement:
Maintenance people would like to relate a document on our portal on a work order to be able to print it with the work order.
My suggestion was to use Services for Object in the Order -> Create external document (url).
But the adress field cannot contain more than 132 characters.
I have URL longer than 132 chars:
eg: http://server.domain:port/irj/go/km/docs/documents/AAI/Gestion%20documentaire/Public/Entretien/Instructions%20de%20travail/EU-IT-01-02.pdf
What do you suggest me?
Thanks,
François

Thank you Pete but we are release 700 and this note applies to release 620 and older. I will try to find another note or another way.
In the meantime we use the short-ID of SAP Portal Documents which are long to retrieve but always under 132 char.

Services for Object/store Business documents in AS01

HI
We have a requirement to enable the services for object to attach documents to Asset master. We have made configuration in Trx OAC2,OAC3 for object type BUS1022. The ICON is appearing for AS02 & AS03 but not for AS01. We are 6.0 version
How can I aactivate that for AS01. Is it SAP standard or can we activate?
Please provide me the solution.
Thanks
Sailaja Ala

Hi,
Absolutely it is not possible.
The services for object is only visible, once the original object is created.
Even if you check for normal F-02 entry also, it wont be visible during entry, but will be visible after posting if we go thru FB02 or FB03.
Any attachment can be assigned through the services for object, is possible only after creation of the dependent / original data.
So for AS02 and AS03, the dependent data has to be there in the DB, which has been created with AS01.
Thanks,
Srinu

Services for object button in change purchase order-ME22n

Dear experts,
In ECC6.0, me22n transaction in the change me22n screen, top left side "services for object" button is provided.
It is provided to the left of the standard material po 480000009878 text line.
I think it is useful for attaching the Files.
I want to know in what way it is useful. Can we send the document to vendor , can it be possible to print along with purchase document.How it is useful.
Advance thanks,
Regards,
Dayanand

Hi Cheruku
This button is used to attach any doument with the PO, or to check idoc status if PO is created via a Idoc or it has triggered any idoc extra.
would like to know what is your exact query?

Advantage of DMS over "Services for object" functionality

Hi Experts,
I have got very basic doubt about advantages of DMS Over existing standard functionality of SAP.
We can attach documents or files to SAP Objects using "services for object" push button ( Next to title bar).
So please answer for my below queries
1. What is the disadvantage of using Services for Object??
2. If I use services for object, then file is stored in SAP Data base or in my local drive??
Thanks and Regards,

Hello ,
DMS Vs GOS
DMS- Document Management System
The Document Management System (DMS) in SAP R/3 offers the following distinct advantages over the current procedures and systems.
u2022     It avoids data redundancy, maintains consistency of data and minimizes the workload involved in entering and updating data.
u2022     In order to use large databases to the full, it is required to exchange data quickly and securely. Data can be accessed directly using electronic search tools, or find documents using known parameters.
u2022     Document distribution functionality (SAP-Workflow functionality is required)
The SAP R/3 Document Management System meets all these demanding requirements. In addition to managing documents, it also coordinates document processing. It is possible to automate the entire life cycle of a document: from document creation to document storage, its access and its update. Each document can be accessed immediately from any computer on the netwerk.
GOS-
All these DMS advantages are not available with GOS.
The Detailed PPT of comparison is sent to your id.

Transfering Documents (mostly .jpg) from Services for Object to DMS

Hi,
We are presently in the process of finalizing document attachments via DMS system. We still have a high quantity of documents that were attached through the "Services for object" function (mostly .jpg ) and would like to transfer these to DMS without having to export them for every single object (mostly equipments). Is there any way to do this i.e. mass export of these attachments with their link (ex. at the top of the dialog box: AttachmentFor0000000...) so that they remain .jpg to be able to re-upload quickly in DMS system ?
Thanks for your help !

we have in the current system merger project a developer from SAP who is programming this feature for us, so I am pretty certain that there is nothing in standard that can do this job.

Attachments with services for object in ME42 along with RFQ via 'ME9A' .

Hello Guys,
I have a MM requirement where the user attaches some document in ME42 via services for object functionality to a particular RFQ. Here the user wants to attach this document during sending of mail with ME9A to the vendor.
As by SAP standards we are only able to send RFQ in PDF format to vendors.
Thanks in advance
Regards

Hi,
You can attach an attachment to RFQ IN ME9Avia E-mail. Communication strategy need to define in CS01. E-mail address need to maintain in vendor master record. Codition records need to maintain in NACE or IN mn04. Use sap note 191470. This is for PO, the same can be used for RFQ. Please refer below link for step by step assistance. Thanking you.
RFQ send by mail through SAP server
