Updating Document Description

What is the best way to update document description?
We are trying to use BAPI_DOCUMENT_CHANGE2 but it is not updating DIR description.
We also tried using Commit post this BAPI.
Thanks and regards

Hi Niketan,
BAPI_DOCUMENT_CHANGE2 is the correct way.
Could you please send the code?
I guess there is one of following mistakes:
DMS key is not provided in parameters DOCUMENTTYPE, DOCUMENTNUMBER, DOCUMENTPART and DOCUMENTVERSION
DOCUMENTDATA-DESCRIPTION is set to new text but DOCUMENTDATAX-DESCRIPTION is not set to 'X'
function module BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT has to be executed after change
Using this the text in the actual language will be set/changed.
To change other languages you could use table Parameter DOCUMENTDESCRIPTIONS.

Benedikt

XI Actions: Add Document Descriptions - Values not showing

1. Using Adobe Pro XI (version 11.0.0) I create a new Action and I add the Add Document Description step.
2. I click Specify Settings and enter default values for Title, Subject, Author and Keyword (e.g. as in the screenshot below).
3. I close the dialog box and activate the Prompt User checkbox.
4. I save the action.
When I run this action, the description dialog box comes up, but none of my default values ("a", "b", "c", "d") shows up. This seemed to work well with similar actions in Adobe Pro X.
What goes wrong?
Here is the exported action:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Workflow xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/acrobat/workflow/2012" title="test add document description" description="" majorVersion="1" minorVersion="0">
<Group label="Untitled">
<Command name="GeneralInfo" pauseBefore="false" promptUser="true">
   <Items>
    <Item name="Author" type="text" value="c"/>
    <Item name="Keywords" type="text" value="d"/>
    <Items name="LeaveAsIs">
     <Item name="Author" type="boolean" value="false"/>
     <Item name="Keywords" type="boolean" value="false"/>
     <Item name="Subject" type="boolean" value="false"/>
     <Item name="Title" type="boolean" value="false"/>
    </Items>
    <Item name="Subject" type="text" value="b"/>
    <Item name="Title" type="text" value="a"/>
   </Items>
</Command>
</Group>
</Workflow>

I just realize that updating from 11.0.0 to the latest patches (11.0.10) resolves the issue.

Express Update Document in Billing

Dear All,
While saving billing document, system is giving a message, Epress Update Document.
Can anybody tell me what is the table do i need to update ?
Rgds,

Hi,
The reason may be more than one for which you get the update termaination. Eg:
- The printer you have selected is not active
- Print program is not working properly
- Some user exit not working as designed etc...
There are a few ways you can find it out....
a. Go to ST22 and check for the dump that has occured in your ID for that particular day. You will get the list and double click on the relevant one. The to the left hand side you can find "What Happened". Click on it and you will get the description and other details of where it failed.
b. The other method is, normally a workflow triggers into your SAP Mail box. So, you can go to Tcode: SBWP, Go to Inbox and check for unread documents. You will find the update termiantion there. You can double click on it to get the details.
You can also check with your technical team on the same.
Hope this helps
Thanks

S_ALR_80712357 'update document,update run'

Dear friends,
We are testing the report S_ALR_87012357, Advanced VAT return report. Accidentally we realized if we select the option 'update document, update run' but forgot to select 'batchinput session required', the report will marke the tax items and save them in table BSET, but no posting will be generated. I understand this is a mistake of user, however, I will be interested to know if SAP provides any program which can fix these incorrectly processed items, e.g. post the taxes to the vat payable account by using a special program. Or, is this a system limitation, say, user will have to run the program correctly with the respective options selected. I can not access OSS, so I am not sure if there's any OSS related to this.
Is there anyone who can help?
Thanks.

Hello,
After some tests I found the fields I was looking for,
So once document updated , the VAT line item in BSET Table is updated via 2 Fields :
STMDT : TAX return on
STMTI : TAX return on
Thank you all for your time

How to include citation information into document description

I am a chemistry professor in a small college and have a large number of journal articles as pdf's that I reference in my research. I'd would like to include fields for the article citation such as: Journal, Volume, Issue, page, Author 1, Author 2. I can copy these items in Zotero or Endnote, but it seems logical that they should be imbedded in the document and part of the Document Description and go along if I share the document with a student or collague.
I have Acrobat 6.0 and would upgrade if a newer version of Acrobat would to this. I would also really like to avoid using "metadata".

Metadata is the logical way to include the information. You could add a text field, possibly making it hidden if desired, that contains the information. The standard form text field is markup and would not print if you selected only the document for printing. You could also add a header or footer that had the citation information. Another option would be to use the text touchup tool and hold the ctrl key as you place the cursor. That will give you a text field that is part of the document that allows you to enter the information. That lists a few items that might meet your need.

Update Document Flow - delivery -- bill

Hi Experts,
I want to "deactivate" update document flow between delivery and bill for an item category (say e.g. ZTAN). Where can I do that?
In other words in table VBFA when I put "Follow on" document as my invoice #, I do not want to see my delivery # as preceeding document.
I have checked VTFL, at item category level, there is NO field as "Update document flow"
also I have checked VTFA, at item category level, there is NO field as "Update document flow"
(in VTAA and VTLA, at item category level, there is field as "Update document flow" - but this is not my query)
Please help
Typewriter

Hi,
I donot understand your post. What shall I accomplish with your suggestion? For my better understanding, please elaborate.
In VTFL, at item category level, Copy requirement is to check if all the criteria are met, if yes, then copying information is done from Delivery to Invoice. I think, this has nothing to do with populating information in document flow.
Could you please advice, where exactly is the configuration for "Update doc flow" in VTFL and VTFA?

Force "Update document rows according to neu BP'sData"

How can I run the command "Update document rows according to neu BP'sData" over my AddOn.
This command start automatically when GPCode change in the sales document for example.
thanks,
Marcelo

Hi,
There is no function that you can force the updating of the rows in your addon.
what you can do is to simulate how SAP B1 do the updating of the row.
You can Pop a messagebox to ask if they want to update the rows if they change the business partners.
If they select Yes then
Get the PriceList that the Business Partner is using then Parse the Rows And find the Price for that item in the Price List and update the Price Column.
else
Do nothing..
Thanks and regards,
Wilson

FORCE TO "Update document rows to new BP's data"

How do I force to respond YES in the dialog box "Update document rows to new BP's data?" shows, when I DUPLICATE a marketing document?
Edited by: Gabriel Marroquin on Sep 25, 2008 6:46 PM

I want that the user dosen´t have the option to answer NO, that´s I need that the answer always be YES. (If a sales user DUPLICATE an old quotation, wich has a lower price than the actual price of an article, and he answer NO, the actual price of the article doesn´t refresh and the company loose money.)

Document Description Issue.

Hi All,
When I create a document in CV01n and mention some description for that document, the description of the document is stored only in the log in language.
e.g. I logged in with EN, then the description of the document will only be stored in EN language.
If I see the same document in DE language, the description will be blank.
is there any standard way in which we can copy the the description in English to other languages.
Thanks and Regards.
Piyush R Sakharkar.

Hi,
Espen is right. The document description is normally stored in combination with the logon language. The only alternative would be to go to tab "Descriptions" and here you can add different descriptions for different languages.
Otherwise the BADI method mentioned by Espen could help to add further entries in table DRAT.
Best regards,
Christoph

Slow respon when update Document Numbering

Hi Expert,
We have 7 branch and 4 different type of sales document. and we change our document numbering every month.
We have use SAP Business One for a year. So, we have large number of document numbering.
when we update and add new row in document numbering, we get slow respon. It can about 30 minutes every update.
how can we make it faster?
*we use 8.82 PL:08 version.
Regards,
Triadi Bagus

Hi Triadi,
Try to update Document Numbering when no user are logged on data or Ask your users to not to post any transaction during the period when you are updating Document Numbering.
This problem arise because when user are punching transactions on database as Internal Document No Changes every time a transaction is punched on Database.
This May be the reason.
Hope this help!!

Sudhir

Copy links to an updated document

Hi, I need help to learn how to copy existing rectangles used as a links to an updated document. I am trying to use copy and paste and my links come vertical when I paste them on the new sheet. I have six rectangules per sheet in a document with 135 sheets, I need to do an update on each sheet so copy and paste will work if I can make this going in the same horizontal position as they show in the old document. Thanks

Try replacing the PDF pages.
File document.pdf has the original links.
aNew_document.pdf has the updated content.
Replace document.pdf pages with aNew_document.pdf pages.
Each page "slides" under the annotation layer (links are a sub-set of annotations).
You may have to reposition the link boxes if aNew_document.pdf has more/less content as such will have repaginated the content.

Updating Document Flow

Hi,
I've created an inbound delivery from an outbound delivery. Now I need to update the document flow, and I've used the code below to do so. My problem is when viewing the document flow for the inbound delivery via VL33N - no document flow is shown. When I view the doc flow for the outbound delivery(VL03N), the inbound delivery shows up there.
Why doesn't doc flow show when viewing the inbound delivery?
Do I need to update document flow another way?

Is there a BAPI you can use instead? Neither of these FMs are released or documented. It's quite a task trying to figure out how SAP uses these FMs to update.

Fail Updating Document Using DI API in Form_Data_Update_Event

Hi,
B1 2007B PL14
I have problem updating document using DI API in Form_data_Update_Event.
I have made sure that beforeaction=false and actionsuccess=true (to me, this means that B1 has completed the update process), then my codes will be executed to update the same document using DI.
However, I notice that when my codes is executed, the document form is still in "Update" mode, that this results in the system returning error message "another user-modified table (odbc-2039)
Any suggestions?

Hi Shahid,
I am not sure what your question is. The code you pasted looks like the MatrixAndDataSources example that comes with the SDK. What are you trying to do?
Thanks,
Adele
