Urgent : URL of document attached in a PCUI

We have recently upgraded from CRM 4.0 to CRM 5.0
The URL length of a PDF document in PCU Interface was small when we had the CRM 4.0 version, after the upgrade the URL length has increase immensely.
In our requirement the user used to copy the URL into the favorites and execute from there. But as the length of the URL has increased after the upgrade we are unable to copy the URL into the favorites.
Can some one please suggest a solution for this or explain why the URL length has increased that long after upgrade.
Thanks,
Suri

Hello Suri,
I think you should open a OSS Message to get an answer from SAP about this issue.

URL vs. document attached in back end EBP 4.0 Classic/4.7 E

Based on documentation provided by SAP (Powerpoint) regarding new functionality available in SRM 4.0, we should have two choices regarding documents attached in shopping carts. One is the copy-to-DMS option well covered elsewhere, the second does NOT copy attachments to the back end but rather makes a URL available in R/3.
We are attempting this URL approach:
Instantiated BAdI BBP_CREATE_REQ_BACK (note to the reader, there is a different BAdI for SRM 5.0)
== Start Code Change ===
CV_ATTACH_USE_URL ='X'.
CLEAR CV_ATTACH_TRANSFER_ACTIVE. "i.e. we are not transferring documents
== End Code change ==
Configured the badi, attached the method, configured SICF, etc.
We have NOT configured DMS in R/3.
Created new requisition/shopping cart
Adopt the requisition
Select attachments Icon in SAPGUI, no documents found.
Has anyone tried this URL method? Did you get it to work? Is DMS still used? We are guessing a simple text file may be transferred with the attachment URL's, which would require DMS.
Any suggestions on debugging the situation?

HI Daemeon
The attachment transfer from shopping cart is very simple just follow the steps below
Following are the steps -
In SRM - Activate BADI - ZBBP_CREATE_REQ_BACK
method - FILL_REQ_INTERFACE
parameter - cv_attach_transfer_active = 'X' set active.
In R3 in DC10 create a new document type for SRM
IN DC30 check all extensions are maintained properly.
Logout and login and all the attachment gets transffered fully.
check one process with attachment It will work.

Document attaching with Procurement document and Invoicing also

Hello Experts,
The query is to attach document with PR/PO, Invoice etc.We don't have DMS implemented in our system and we don't want to save these documents in SAP . The aim is that the attachment should be attached to these documents but is should be saved in a repository outside SAP because these attachments contain >70 pages (>100 sometimes in case on Invoicing). How can we achieve it?
We have .Net and SharePoint in place. Can we use them for this purpose?
Or if there is some other workaround to achieve the same.
Thanks for four valuable suggestions.
Saurabh

Thanks for your response Jurgen.
Though I have marked the discussion as answered yet I got few more points to ask from you,hope you understand that:
Firstly,during document attachment ,can we disable option for 'Create attachment' and keep the option for URL enabled?Please suggest me the way for it..
Also,perhaps in MM all transactions will not provide the options for linking document with URL or create attachment options,wherever necessary . Then which is the preferred way to deal with such transactions?
Secondly, If I attach a document with this way (screen shot) then source and destination remains the same as shown below:
Now, my query is " Is that possible the document is saved under a separate directory (like L drive) instead of the path shown in the screen shot (source and destination are same, I want a default store location with this where all such document will get stored). I hope you got what I am looking for..
Thanks & regards

Hello Tarang,
Can you be little specific on what kind of documents are these?
1. You can check if there are ways to integrate the same with KM...am not sure about CRM but yes, it can be done on BIW.
2. If these are just config documents and not that user creates, then you may save these docs into a KM folder and create a KM Navigation link assigning to users.

I need to visualize a document attached on a pdf file on an iPad. Is there any application to do that ?

I need to visualize a document attached on a pdf file on an iPad. Is there any application to do that ?

Yes. Quite a few actually.
Starting with Apple's own iBooks App, I also see many recomendations for Goodreader, and Adobe's own PDF Reader. Just to name a few. Look for them in the App Store. iBooks and Adobe reade are free. You can also search the App Store for other alternatives.
Also for most PDF's the Mail App can open them directly.

Why can I not attach a document to an email? Every time I want to send an email with a document attached to it, an error notice pops out. It tell me that the file is being used even when it is not. How can I fix this issue?

Thanks Jeff, I was not aware that a template could be multi-page. (All the existing templates were 1 page)
But it worked, saving me some steps. When I was finished I renamed the document, and locked it.
Then tried to save it but could not because it was locked. I closed it, went to my Spread Sheet Folder ,
to find it, it was not there. The Finder could not find it either.
So I start over again.
I opened up Numbers and it showed my personal Numbers template folder, it contained both my new
original 4 page template and the vanished saved document!
I tried to delete the template containing these document data and could not - I had to go to the Library/Application Support/Numbers to physically remove it from this folder. Then I started over again. I Finally found out how to make it work: I can now "save as", and then lock, and it will go to place where I want it to be saved and locked.
The secret is: Click on the document title in the menu bar, and it opens up "Save as...", which works the same as in OS 10.4.11, and you can pick the place you want for saving. Once done that, you can then lock the document in the same pull down menu, and then close it.
I also found later that I can delete a template from its folder, by letting Numbers open the templates,
clicking on the one I want to remove, then go to the "Numbers Menu/File/Move to...", select "Desktop"
and from there the selected template can then be thrown into the Trash from there.
It appears now that the real fault of the Numbers software is that the "Save as" command is not available in the "Edit" or "File" pull-down menus, but hidden behind the title of the document.

Office 2007 Document Attaching in Solution Manager

Dear Gurus,
When document attaching in Solution Manager 7.01, the system does not support Microsoft Office 2007 formats. (docx, xlsx) Are there any customizing for this topic?
Thank you,

Hi,
Thanks, in lieu with your detailed system message, please try with this
The warning is because the file extension docx is not known for the
system. All the known extension is defined in table SDOKMIME by standard
. And customer can extend it in table SDOKMIME_C.
Actually that is only a warning message, which will not block the
following up processing. The docx file will be attached if you click on
the green tick. And the file can be previewed and checked later on.
If you would like to get rid of this warning anyway, you may extend the
customer table using the following step:
-spro->SAP Customizing Implementation Guide
->SAP NetWeaver->Knowledge Management
->Settings in the Knowledge Warehouse System
->Document Management Service
->Define MIME Type for File Name Extension
-add an entry like
File name extension = docx
MIME type of a Web object = application/vnd.openxmlformats
After everything has been done as above, please retry to attach, it should help.
Cheers,
sh

Does the mail app display whatever is in the document without the ability to differentiate between hidden or non hidden images?
The mail app will not display fillable form fields in PDF files that can be seen in real PDF apps. I say real PDF apps because the form fields in PDF apps will not appear in the iBooks app either. IMO, iBooks is not a real PDF app.
So, I would say that the mail app cannot differentiate between hidden and non hidden items

New DMS document attachment to order header - can it also be done to a task list?

With business function LOG_EAM_CI_6, you can now attach DMS documents to the order header or operation level in the 'Additional Data' tab.
Since a lot of clients use documents to list complex preventive maintenance instructions, is it also possible to attach a DMS document to a task list header (or operation) and have it show up in the new 'Additional Data' screen area of the resulting order (using a maintenance item/plan to generate the order)? Or do we still have to use the task list operation PRT functionality and have it show up in the order's operation PRT?

Hi Arthur,
I have configured Task list as per the SAP note 1821916 & activated DOC_TL_GUI. This allowed me to attach documents to the Operation &/or Header of the Task Lists. The problem I am facing is when I assign the task list to the work order the documents are not transferred . You have stated that they have transferred to the work order so I am wondering if there is something I missed.
Arthur Balajthy wrote:
And I checked that by adding documents to a task list header or operation, the work order generated from a maintenance plan/item referencing that task list does have those documents attached also.
I haven't tried from a Plan but will do that now.
I assumed if they were attached to the Task List Operation they would transfer to the Work Order like everything else on the Task List
Thanks in advance

Enable to save documents attachement on purchase order

Hi Experts
I attach a document to a purchase order, i save it.
When i open my purchase order i dont find mu documents attached, but when i apply on modify the system give me all documents attached on the purchase order.
How can i resolve this please?
Thanks

Hi,
I am a little confused. You said when you 'apply on modify', you call see all the attachments again.
Would you please tell me what you mean by 'apply on modify'?
Meanwhile I suggest you deactivate save and change BADI for PO and retest the issue.

Mass download of documents attached to change documents

Hi to all,
we've been using ChaRM in Solution Manager for more than 6 months on my project and we've added a lot of documents (word and excel files) in change documents (SDMI, SDHF). I wonder if there is a way to download all files from the change documents programmatically or if a transaction codes exists for that.
Best regards,
Stéphane.

Hi Roel,
Thanks for your reply. I was afraid the answer is no...
As far as I know, documents attached to change documents are not accessible through SI80 (I didn't managed to find them). So i'm trying to create my own report to download documents from chosen solman transaction. Since i'm not an abap expert and Solution manager code is a little bit complex for me that could take time... I will let you know when/if I succeed.
If anyone else has an answer to that question...
Best regards,
Stéphane.

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.

In order to save any type of document on your phone you need to have an app that supports that form of document.
There are several word processing apps but I prefer Pages. Buy this app. Once it is on your phone you can tap the Word document in your email to view it then tap the Share icon and Open in Pages.
If you edit the document and email it you will have the choice to send it as a Pages document, a Word document or a PDF file.

Subject: Document attached to record (Automtically convert to PDF)

Dear All,
My requirement in record management is as follows:
I have a document attached to a record. (Tcode: SCASE)
The document needs to be converted into pdf and attached a different node in the record. All of this should be done by the system automatically (as a background step of the workflow). Do we have any configuration set in the record/document management to convert them? Please suggest.
Thanks,
nsp.

Hi,
Class CL_CRM_DOCUMENTS has different methods that you can use:
CREATE_WITH_FILE
CREATE_WITH_URL
CREATE_WITH_TABLE
Depending on the source of the document you want to attach, you can call one of those methods to attach your document.
Embed this in a FM that you trigger out of your action, and you should be good to go
