Updating CustromXML part in documents on request

Hello,
I have a document library, which contains .docx files with content controls, bound to custom XML. I need to update those custom XML parts with the new values when user requests file open operation. I can do it by writting my own HTTPHandler for GET, but
it only works if the user downloads a file. If users access it via Word, it communicates with the service via CellStorage.svc.
I cannot use VSTO plug-ins in my environment. So, no web-service option or anything like that. I tried to cheat with "External" package relationship for my custom xml part, but it's not supported by the MS Word. Is there any seam in the system
where I can intercept all document open requests and replace required custom XML part on the fly? If not, what would be a preferred solution?
Thanks for you help in advance.

Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that want to intercept open document request to update custom xml part of word file in a SharePoint document library.
I suggest you can track the open document request using Fiddler, in my environment, the open document request can be tracked, then you can do your custom code in the httpmodule.
Here are some similar thread for your reference:

We use a doc template to create a purchased part spec document and then save them as pdf formatted files. These part spec documents are also appended with the datasheets for these purchased parts. When we want to update/revise the document, is there a method, using Acrobat, to make those updates to the pdf, or must we go back to the doc template and basically generate a new document?
Also, our resulting pdf documents aren't searchable. How can we generate pdf documents that are searchable? I may want to search for a part value or name within the body of these pdf documents, but currently can't do that...very inconvenient.
Can you assist?

Not totally sure about the search issue. A lot depends on how you created the PDF and what is in the datasheets you attached (like are they graphics?). The doc portion should be searchable as long as you used print to the Adobe PDF printer or PDF Maker. For your use, it may be that the print is adequate. However, the result should be searchable (unless maybe you had a form with filled in fields and created the PDF with PDF Maker. I think the form data may be retained in form fields and the fields are not searchable. In that case, a print might be a better procedure. (it would help to know the versions of WORD and Acrobat as well as the exact process you used to create the PDF.)
If the appended data sheets do not change, then you might try opening the original PDF and then using Replace Pages to replace the file created from the DOC file.

How to update characteristics of DMS document

Hello, I have a requirement to update characteristics right after document creation.
I use BAPI_DOCUMENT_CREATE2 to create the document:
CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_DOCUMENT_CREATE2'
     EXPORTING
       documentdata    = ls_doc
     IMPORTING
       documenttype    = lv_document_type
       documentnumber = lv_document_number
       documentpart    = lv_document_part
       documentversion = lv_document_version
       return          = ls_return.
CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT'
         EXPORTING
wait = abap_true.
And then when I try to change it:
CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_DOCUMENT_CHANGE2'
     EXPORTING
       documenttype         = iv_document_type
       documentnumber       = cv_document_number
       documentpart         = iv_document_part
       documentversion      = iv_document_version
       documentdata         = ls_document_data
       documentdatax        = ls_document_data_x
     IMPORTING
       return               = ls_return
     TABLES
       classallocations     = lt_cl_alloc
       characteristicvalues = lt_char.
The following error is raised: Object TYPE/NUMBER/PART/VERSION does not exist.
I pass the type, number, part and version right from BAPI_DOCUMENT_CREATE into corresponding arguments for the second call, and into documentdata fields as well. ClassAllocations table contains a single row with class type and name for characteristics in CharacteristicValues table.
Could you suggest me, what can be wrong here?

I found a solution for my problem. In a short, everything is OK except one thing:
Field STATUS=1 should be also filled in CLASSALLOCATIONS table in addition to CLASSTYPE and CLASSNAME.
In total I had to make my call conform to the following points:
Document type, number, version and part must be filled into DOCUMENTDATA structure and not only in direct parameters of the BAPI
CHARACTERISTICSVALUES must include class name and class type, these can be found from tcode CL03
CLASSALLOCATIONS must include the same CLASSNAME and CLASSTYPE as from previous point, plus STATUS field set to «1»

Update copied to multiple documents

Hi
We have a requirement to update a property or value within a document such as expiry date and for this update to automatically copied to multiple documents on different sites and libraries.
We need to edit a 'master copy' and have this change copied to all other documents based on the 'master copy'. We would appreciate any suggestions. We are thinking of using workflow rules and the update list item action but are unsure if there is better
options.
Would we possibly be able to use the document information panel and have the update copied to other documents based on a template?
Thanks very much
Tony

Hi
Just to let you know, I am considering using a Slist and a custom document information panel.
The data will be changed in the list and then using a data connection within the document information panel, be copied to the quick parts within the word document.
The word document will reside on a different site and library and when opened will receive data from the list (master copy), the data will then be copied to the quick parts within the document.
Does anyone foresee any issues with this approach?
I would like to refresh the document automatically without reopening the document. Any other ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks very much
Tony

Referance material document of 103 is not updating in 105 material document

Dear All,
I have created a Good Receipt through MIGO using 103 movement. Later I have created 105 movement with respect to 103 movement reference through release blocked stock.
After creation of documents, when checked the document created through 105 movement there is no reference number of 103 document number found in the document number of 105 movement.
In the table MSEG field LFBNR is supposed to get updated with the reference number of the document created through 103 movement.
In this case, this reference number is not updated in the table MSEG-LFBNR.
What is the reason for Referance material document of 103 is not updating in 105 material document at item level in Purchase order Tab.

Hi noswam123,
If a PDF file is password protected, the only way to open that document is with the password. You will have to get that password from the person who created the PDF.

Document info fields in Word won't update when placed in document header-section

Dear all,
I have a document library using 3 Content Types with metadata columns and a Word-template.
The values of these metadata columns should be displayed within the Word-documents created from content type.
So I've inserted document info fields into the Word-template to display them.
But unfortunately the placeholders are not updated when opening the document again, after metadata values had been changed e.g. by using the edit-form within the list.
From what I have seen so far, this only refers to document info fields resident in header or footer sections.
But this is where I need to place them.
Does anybody know this issue and has an idea of how to fix it?
Could VBA be of use here?
Best regards,
Ben

Hi,
Based on your description, document info fields in Word won't update when placed in document header-section.
Per my test, document info fields in Word will update when placed in document header-section.
Refer to the following article about Add SharePoint Metadata to Word Documents:

Can you be a bit more specific? What it the difference between "my Application" and "my test application"? What are you doing differently when you are creating these buttons?

Part appraisal document for self and subordinates

Hi All
I have created a part appraisal document , for self and sub ordinates. When I logged in to portal , the subordinates are able to view the document whereas document created for self are unable to. For self as well as for subordinates , we have configured the document in ESS only. It may be due to some powl query issue but am unable to identify if its powl issue or some authorization issue,In either case , how to identify the same. Please suggest.
Thanks
Smriti

Hello Smriti,
Can you clarify the issue for me - you have created one appraisal document and in the header data have defined the part appraisers as the employee and subordinates, and only the employee is unable to access the part appraisal document?
When you created the appraisal template, on the 'Roles' tab, is the role for 'Self' ticked?
Can the employee access any of his other appraisal documents from the portal?
Is IT0105 data maintained for the employee's SY-UNAME?

Kendall
