Upload technical documents?

SCN Team,
I have a couple How to Technical documents in WORD format and find out if I upload the document as is to BI Platform forum?
Is there a SCN standard Word template I need to use?
Must I convert the *.doc document to another format?
Also wanted to find what is correct area to post:
Blog area ?
Document ?
Please advise
Ajay

Hi Ajay
To add to Jurgen's comments, Google seems to be the main entry point of a lot of members to find SCN content. If you have the entire crux of your document in a Word document link it is unlikely to appear in the high up in search listing. Your content may not get as much visiblity.
I too find it frustrating that you have to download files and when I ask the person their excuse is they wanted to add pictures and could not copy/paste the image in the SCN document - not realising the insert image button is there for them to use.
The other benefit of writing directly in SCN is that you can save the draft - you can work anywhere at anytime with version control and publish when you are ready. You can also add a collaborator if you want someone else to contribute or review whilst you are working on the document.
The more I blog and learn about the SCN platform the more I am moving away from writing my draft in MS Word first.
As an aside, if they are 'How to' technical documents is there a chance the content belongs in a Wiki or help.sap as opposed to a document?

Upload / Download document to KM Content Server from WebDynpro Application

I have a requirement where I need to upload / download document into / from KM Content Server from my WebDynpro Application.
Is it technically possible and if Yes, can I get any Sample code for this.

Hi Tahzeeb,
first of all i would point you to the JavaDocs for KMC API.
https://media.sdn.sap.com/javadocs/NW04/SPS15/km/index.html
And here is a small example of reading and storing KM resources.
For reading:
     * Returns a resource as an InputStream from the KM repository
     * at the given path. The IUser is needed for authorization.
     * @param user      IUser for checking authorisation.
     * @param resPath   Path to the KM resource.
     * @return          Requested resource as a stream.
    private InputStream getKmResource(final IUser user, final String resPath)
        throws ResourceAccessException {
        try {
            final IResourceFactory factory = ResourceFactory.getInstance();
            final RID rid = RID.getRID(resPath);
            final IResource kmResource =
                factory.getResource(
                    rid,
                    new ResourceContext(getDeprecatedIUser(user)));
            if (kmResource == null) {
                throw new ResourceNotFoundException(
                    "KM resource not found: " + resPath,
                    resPath);
            return kmResource.getContent().getInputStream();
        catch (WcmException e) {
            throw new ResourceAccessException("Error accessing KM resource: " + resPath, e, resPath);
And for writing:
     * Stores a resource in the KM repository at the given path with the given name and mimetype.
     * Content is taken from the given inputstream.
     * @param user          IUser for checking authorisation.
     * @param resName   Name of the resource
     * @param resPath     Path to the resource
     * @param mimeType MimeType of the resource
     * @param inputStream Resource content
     * @throws ResourceAccessException
    private void putKmResource(
        final IUser user,
        final String resName,
        final String resPath,
        final String mimeType,
        final InputStream inputStream)
        throws ResourceAccessException {
        try {
            final ResourceContext rContext = new ResourceContext(getDeprecatedIUser(user));
            final RID rid = RID.getRID(resPath);
            final ICollection kmCollection =
                (ICollection) ResourceFactory.getInstance().getResource(rid, rContext);
            if (kmCollection == null) {
                throw new ResourceNotFoundException(
                    "KM resource not found: " + resPath,
                    resPath);
            else {
                IContent kmContent = new Content(inputStream, mimeType, -1);
                IResource kmResource = kmCollection.createResource(resName, null, kmContent);
        catch (ResourceException e) {
            throw new ResourceAccessException("Error accessing KM resource: " + resPath, e, resPath);
        finally {
            try {
                inputStream.close();
            catch (IOException e1) {
                throw new ResourceAccessException("Error closing InputStream when accessing " + resPath, e1, resPath);
Hope that helps for a start.

Uploading a document inorder to create index category

I've just installed TREX 7.0 and completed most of the Technical configuration for E-recruiting 604. I am currently on step "Add document attributes to Index Category" which requires an index category to be created for document area HR_KW. Inorder to do that, there needs to be atleast 1 document uploaded. I haven't been able to figure out yet the most effective way to upload a document. How can I accomplish this?

Hi,
as you are probaly not uploading directly to TREX but rather to your e-recruiting application, it may be better to ask in that area (HCM).
Best, Karsten

Getting error while uploading a document in a library

Hi,
I'm getting a weird error while uploading the document in the library. And I don't get it all the times but most of the times.
It reads:
The file <library name>/<file name> has been modified by i:0#.<user-id> on <datetime stamp>
How to resolve this ? I have referred many articles on this one, but none helped.
Thanks for your response in advance.
Regards

Hi Prajk,
Based on your description, I recommend to check if there are any ItemAdded event receiver or workflows which are triggered when an item is created to update the document properties in the library.
If there is any ItemAdded event receiver on the library, I recommend to wait for ItemAdded to finish before the ListFieldIterator control residing on EditForm.aspx loads (It’s the ListFieldIterator which displays the Item’s fields ).
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/manuj/archive/2009/09/22/itemadded-event-on-document-library-the-file-has-been-modified-by-on-error.aspx
If there is any workflow on the library, I recommend to add a Pause for Duration step at the beginning of the workflows.
If above cannot work, please check ULS log for detailed error message.
For SharePoint 2013, by default, ULS log is at C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\15\LOGS.
Best regards.
Thanks

Uploading Multiple Documents To a List Item sharepoint 2010

hi Guys ,
Is there a way we can enable (out of the box )Uploading Multiple Documents To a List Item sharepoint 2010 ?
cheers

No, There is no OOB way to do the same you have to build a custom Page/Control OR customise OOB Form to attache multiple files and that will be through integration of ajax based control (multiple file uploader.)
the other way to do the same is provision a custom field. we have done this for our many clients.
Hi, I also encountered the same problem, could u pls provide detailed information by a custom field?

I get two screens while uploading a document in a library

Hi,
I get two upload screens while uploading a document to a library. Take a look at the below screenshots. Can somebody please tell me how can I club these two to one.
I need only one upload screen with all the metadata listed.
Many thanks for your response.
p.s. also please tell me an out of the box way to do this. Even scripting is okay.
1.
2.

In the first screenshot I can see the link "Upload files using Windows Explorer instead". You can use that option to upload your files and the default values for metadata would be taken for those files.
From the second screenshot I can see there are custom columns in metadata because of which the second dialog is shown. If there are no custom columns in metadata then the second dialog will not appear.

When trying to upload a document or attach a document in an email Firefox gives me an error "Failed to load CTDFMRES.dll" and stops responding, I have no issues in any other browsers. And I am using Firefox 4, Fixes???

Uploading multiple documents into sharepoint list item with REST in sharepoint 2013 using content editor web part :

hi ,
i am trying to upload multiple document files into sharepoint list item. I followed below link for implementaion.
http://techfindings-prem.blogspot.in/search/label/jquery.multifilejs
It was working for sharepoint hosted app.
This complete code is written within content edito web part.
It was working when i was in root site collection with below change (hard coded the root level url) in code in "UploadFile" function.
var scriptbase = "http://servername" + "/_layouts/15/";
console.log(' File size:' + bytes.length);
$.getScript(scriptbase + "SP.RequestExecutor.js", function () {
var createitem = new SP.RequestExecutor("http://servername");
createitem.executeAsync({
url: "http://servername/sites/cpg/" + "/_api/web/lists/GetByTitle('SalesRecord')/items(" + attachmentitemid + ")/AttachmentFiles/add(FileName='"
+ fileName + "')",
method: "POST",
binaryStringRequestBody: true,
body: binary,
success: fsucc,
error: ferr,
state: "Update"
function fsucc(data) {
//alert( data.statusText + "\n\n" + data.responseText);
console.log(data + ' uploaded successfully');
deferred.resolve(data);
function ferr(data) {
//alert( data.statusText + "\n\n" + data.responseText);
console.log(fileName + "not uploaded error");
deferred.reject(data);
But the issue came in picture when i was working with the other site collection instead of root one. The url was like below.
"http://servername/sites/cpg/". This time i need to be there within "cpg" site collection.
Now if i hard code the url as i did above my code gets break here while come to below line
$.getScript(scriptbase + "SP.RequestExecutor.js", function () {
I am getting error when i used below code:
var scriptbase = "http://servername" + "/_layouts/15/";
$.getScript(scriptbase + "SP.RequestExecutor.js", function () {
var createitem = new SP.RequestExecutor("http://servername");
createitem.executeAsync({
url: "http://servername/sites/cpg/" + "/_api/web/lists/GetByTitle('SalesRecord')/items(" + attachmentitemid + ")/AttachmentFiles/add(FileName='"
+ fileName + "')",
method: "POST",
binaryStringRequestBody: true,
body: binary,
success: fsucc,
error: ferr,
state: "Update"
function fsucc(data) {
//alert( data.statusText + "\n\n" + data.responseText);
console.log(data + ' uploaded successfully');
deferred.resolve(data);
function ferr(data) {
//alert( data.statusText + "\n\n" + data.responseText);
console.log(fileName + "not uploaded error");
deferred.reject(data);
Please hekp in this case. This complete code is written within content edito web part.

Sanjay Joshi

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you have an issue about upload multiple documents files into library vai REST API.
As you have said, you have used the hard code url in your code.
How about use the _spPageContextInfo.webAbsoluteUrl method to get the url?
I have used this method to get the url, then use the code in the article you have pasted within a content editor web part to upload the files.
You can replace the hard code url with the _spPageContextInfo.webAbsoluteUrl method, then check whether it works.
Thanks,
Jason

"Function code cannot be selected" error while uploading a document.

Hi,
When we try to upload a document into SAP the user is getting the error "Function code cannot be selected". Detailed error is given below. Only one user is facing this error in PRD. For all other users it is working fine. We replicated the same issue in testing systems and it is working fine there with the same user's id.
The detailed error is,
No batch input data for screen SAPLF040 0300
Message no. 00344
Diagnosis
The transaction sent a screen that was not expected in the batch input session and which therefore could not be supplied with data.
Possible reasons:
1. The batch input session was created incorrectly. The sequence of screens was recordly incorrectly.
2. The transaction behaves differently in background processing in a batch work process than when running in dialog (SY-BATCH is queried and changes the screen sequence).
3. The transaction has undergone user-specific Customizing and therefore certain screens may be skipped or processed differently, according to the current user. If the person who created a batch input session is not the same as the person now processing it, this problem may occur frequently.
System Response
None.
Procedure
For 1: Either re-create the session or process it in expert mode. Correct the batch input program.
For 2. It is very difficult to analyze this problem, particularly in the case that the screen sequence or the display-only options of fields differ according to whether the transaction is being processed in the background or as an online dialog. It could also be that this kind of transaction cannot run with batch input.
For 3: Have the creator of the session process it. If no error occurs now, then this is a program with user-specific Customizing.

Hi Amar,
I am facing the same issue while processing Vendor master inbound idocs, Few Idocs gone in error with error message "Function code cannot be selected".
Could you please suggest any solution found for the same.
Thanks in advance

Issue with automatic numbering of figures in a Technical Document

Hi everyone, thanks for taking the time to examine my issue. Basically I've inherited a Technical Document which was imported from Quark some years ago and badly cobbled together in IDesign by a novice and I'm bringing it up to standard to make it a bit more usable but do need to retain the conventions within it. It was written as a chaptered document so I've set up the 'chapters' as Sections in InDesign so as to allow for page number variables and a decent ToC etc. I'd like to have the diagram numbers (and associated x-references) automated too, but am floundering a bit with this.
At the moment all the image captions are set in one paragraph style throughout the document, and I've been playing with the Bullets and Numbering Dialogue within this paragraph style. All the captions are part of the body text or in their own text frames (As opposed to being linked with image metadata or anything like that).
The manually written image number format in the document reads like 'Figure Chapter number, colon, Image number, and then some have (a), (b), or (c). followed by the name)' eg (worst case) Figure 8:5(c) Sealing the Blahblah Adaptor
I realise I might have to set up a named list for each 'chapter' because I can't find a way to define the numbered list to show me;
'Section number, dot, Image number (starting at one then continuing until the next section starts) dot and then if I need it an a, b, c. etc too'
Not forgetting I have set up the written 'chapters' as Sections in Indesign.
If I try adding the 'section symbol' to the number field in the bullets and numbering dialogue (inside my paragraph style) I just get a weird little blue shape that presumably starts a new section rather than identifies the section I've put it in (so that isn't it) and if i try 'Chapter Number' from the number placeholder menu it only ever says '1' because InDesign only allows one 'chapter' per document (and my chapters are actually sections!).
I do find the coding system for the 'insert special characters or numbered placeholder' really confusing - I'm not familiar with all of them, (and throwing circumflex's and hashtags in doesn't brighten my day) and since I don't know the codes trial and error seemed to be the way forward. How are we supposed to know the codes - is there a list online somewhere?
I could manually type the section number in the 'Number' text box in the dialogue (if I make a named list for each chapter) and lift a layer of confusion but surely there's a way to identify a section in a numbered/named list?
I think I'm really close but it's driving me a bit crazy - I'm sure identifying levels within named lists might be something to do with it, but I can't see how to alter that. Do I need to set up a new paragraph style AND a new named list for each 'chapter' (section)? The alternative could be to split the document up and make a book file so the 'chapters' become real chapters? (I don't want to do this!)
There's also something in RealWorld InDesign that worries me a bit - it says (even if I had it working the way I want) that it might number unthreaded text frames in the order they were created rather than the order they appear on the page? Um...
The other thing is I do have a mixture of inline and anchored objects throughout this document so that might mess things up too?! *Sigh!*
I'm using InDesign 5.5. for Windows. Many thanks for any tips! Hope somone out there is less confused than me!
kind regards
Phil

You're so right!!!
I really liked the idea of writing a book in pages. Have to write a second edition of something and did not want to use Word2008 on the Mac, because after one year it is still an unstable beast (crashes, crashes).
So I checked ot Pages 09 - and alas
* no xreferences
* no automatic numbering of captions, figures, ...
Then I asked my publisher for FrameMaker: The answer was: NO longer on the Mac since 2005. I can't believe this. Not a single decent program to write a book on a Mac.
I don't want to go back to LaTex after 20 years - HELP me somebody
and show me a few (automatic) workarounds how to play the automatic numbering and Xref tricks in pages.
Otherwise it's really neat - BUT - nut for writing documents longer than 20 - 30 pages that need off that book like stuff.

How do i upload a document from my MacBook Pro to iCloud?

How do i upload a document from my MacBook Pro to iCloud?

To get Pages Documents (and Word) to iCloud from your computer, log into iCloud.com and go to the iWork tab. Then copy that file to the page. Works with Numbers and, I think, Excel files too. But you can't copy any type of file you want to iCloud, it has to be one of the supported formats. Also, you need to have Pages/Numbers app on a device to allow syncing from iCloud to the device and to copy from Mac to iCloud.

How to create a workflow composite with the ability to upload a document in

Hi,
Is there any way to attach/upload a document while creating or modifying a user.
I have a requirement where user will create a document(.xls/.csv/.doc) with his details and he needs to upload that document while updating the profile. If he is creating the profile then this document has to be forwarded to his manager. By validating the document manger will approve the request.
Any help on this is greatly appreciated.

Use a JFrame and paint on the content pane. Or a Frame with a Canvas (who the heck still uses AWT?).
They probably don't do anything because painting a button is not enough. It actually needs to be a button. Or Menu.
