Document Management systems

Looking for Document Management system to replace GW
Is this a Fair analysis...
No improvements in GW8... (Sadly GroupWise is going nowhere fast specially
when it comes to DM).
Users want more functionality - access the email archiving (not the joke
archives), PDF support, Library from the Web etc.
Since we are going to have to move from Netware soon - I guess Windows is
the way to go (looking at the dead SmallBusiness Nows-SBE2 forum - Novel
doen't have a credible Small Business solution or the will power)
What other Document Management systems exist?
I've come across things like KnowledgeTree but don't have any experience of
it.
I guess others who have moved from GW DM have already left the Novell forums
but I'm looking for someone who has had to move to a better (or another)
Document Management system.

Document Management System
What is document management system?
The capture and management of documents within an organization. A DMS includes Web access to support occasional users and work from remote sites as well as a secure document storage area (vault). Additionally a DMS includes search and retrieval, versioning, and content caching.
Benifit of using Document Management System
* Reduced paper storage - removal of paper by converting paper documents that are stored within the business or in an archive into an electronic form
* Improved retrieval time - obtaining paper from storage or an archive is typically slower than electronic retrieval of documentation. Along with the improved retrieval time comes the ability to perform searches for similar information. This is especially useful when trying to perform major changes or perhaps searching for information subject to litigation
* Saves paper, printer and toner costs - reduced need to print paper documents as electronic versions are available for use or reuse. Whilst the paperless office is still not a reality, it is anticipated that the availability of an DMS would reduce the need for multiple paper copies of documents. If the DMS does not have an electronic signature capability then at least one "master" paper signed document will need to be printed
* Improved staff productivity - less time spent searching for documents or trying to find the current version. Faster document review and approval cycles, particularly where multiple reviewers and approvers are involved in the business process
* Improved disaster recovery - DMS contains business critical documents and has its own disaster recovery plan that allows the documents to be restored in the event of significant disruption or disaster for the business
* Improved security through a single secure location for documents and ensuring that the right people are able to access the right documents
* Improved compliance with regulation or legislation
* Central control and management of documentation
* Reduced chance of "losing" documents
* Enhanced competitive situation due to improved internal document processes
* Improved customer service through faster access to and retrieval of important customer information

Even from Apple? > Java for OS X Lion Update 1
Restart your Mac before trying to download the file.
Do you have anti virus software installed or a program like LIttle Snitch?
If you are using Safari to download files, go to the Safari menu bar click Safari > Empty Cache
If that doesn't help, back to the menu bar, click Safari > Reset Safari. Select the top 5 boxes then click Reset.
If you still can't download the Java file, go to ~ / Library / Caches / com.apple.Safari
Move the Cache.db file from the com.apple.Safari folder to the Trash and restart your Mac. Try downloading that file again.
If it still won't download without that dialog, go to ~/Library/Safari. Move the Downloads.plist file from the Safari folder to the Trash.

OLE2_OBJECT AND DOCUMENT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (DMS)

Hi Experts.
I'm trying to make a excel inform like a catalog with materials and images which are in a Document Management System.
I'm using OLE2_OBJECT to make the inform in EXCEL, because I'm trying to do it with SMARTFORMS, and I cannot because I need to resize and put ok the images and with SMARTFORMS I cannot.
To see the information I have a ALV Objects with a custom container with the information to the database..., material, price, etc..., and in other container when you click in a row I show the picture which is in the DMS.
To do it, I use this method to get the URL to the image.
CALL METHOD cl_dms_thumbnail_display=>get_url
EXPORTING
i_doc = ls_doc "IMPORTING
e_url = g_graphic_url.
And after I call the method of instance of class cl_gui_picture to show the picture in the cl_gui_alv_container
CALL METHOD g_picture1->load_picture_from_url
EXPORTING
url = p_graphic_url
IMPORTING
RESULT = p_result.
In the code to excel print to insert the picture if I put this URL to my local pc, it's ok,
CALL METHOD OF picture 'INSERT'
EXPORTING
#1 = 'C:Documents and SettingsadministradorMis documentosMis imágenesprueba.bmp'.
but the URL of the g_graphics_url it's
SAPR3://SAPR3CMS/get/200/ZAFD_5F100/DC99BBC5172158F18A14005056C00008/DSR_20DEP_202_20BANDAS_20BROWN_20389_2020070719.JPG
and this URL it's nothing if I put in the internet explorer...
What can I do to do this??
If you have another idea I appreciate it.
Thanks.

Hi,
May be try this way . ( I am not 100% sure about this)
data : g_picture   type ref to cl_gui_picture.
data : g_thumbnail type ref to cl_gui_custom_container.
CALL METHOD cl_dms_thumbnail_display=>get_url
EXPORTING
i_doc = ls_doc "IMPORTING
e_url = g_graphic_url.
if not g_graphic_url is initial.
create object g_thumbnail
      exporting container_name = <Your container name>.
create object g_picture
       exporting parent = g_thumbnail.
call method g_picture->set_display_mode.
endif.

Integrated Document Management System

Hi,
We are considering Oracle IFS as part of an Integrated Document
Management system with the following functionality:
1. Document/Image Capture
2. Document Storage & Retrieval
3. Processflow/Workflow
IFS meets the requirement for the point 2 above. However, we are
looking for a Image Capture/Processing solution that will
provide scanning and OCR/ICR functionality. Are you aware of any
such solution that can easily be integrated with IFS, so that
scanned documents/images can be directly stored in IFS document
repository.
Thanx & Regards,

Hi,
We are a Kofax Partner and have used Kofax Ascent Software to
integrate with iFS. Essentially what we have done is the
following;
- We do not use the WebUI interface and have created our own
user interface with additional functionality for users.
- As part of the process we needed to scan documents into our
implementation of iFS and also provide the ability to associate
Meta Data with each image captured.
- In our opinion Kofax Ascent software is about the best on the
market for document/image capture and therefore we use this to
place the scanned images into a folder in iFS using the SMB
protocol.
- To read the images into iFS we have two method, a manual and
automatic interface.
- To manually pull the documents into iFS we created page which
requests certain information from the user and then reads the
scanned images and places them into the relevant folder in iFS
programmatically with the associated meta data. This is a Java
Bean which we have created for that purpose.
- To automatically pull the documents into iFS we created an
agent which is time based. At predefined time intervals it goes
to read the source folder and if anything is in there then it
will copy the files into the relevant folders in iFS again with
the associated meta data.
- To keep things as flexible as possible we have a property file
which provide certain generic information so that it can be
adapted to meet various client needs.
Naturally I do not want to go into the specifics of the Java
Beans that we have developed as this took a bit of time to get
right.
Hope this helps, if not give me a shout,
Regards,
Bernard Wright

Using PSE as a document management system

I used a program on my old computer with Windows Vista to file and organize scanned pdf documents. I could readily assign tags to a document, and then find the document using the tags. The tagging worked well. It was quick and intuitive.
I now have a new computer with Windows 7. I now realize that the program I used to tag documents will not run under Windows 7, and cannot be relied on to be useable in the future under Windows 15 or 20. So, I'm looking for a different system to file my electronic, scanned pdf documents that will be durable and long-lived, but not overly complicated or expensive. I'm dreading converting (probably meaning rekeying) approximately 1,500 documents filed in the old computer to a new filing system.
It occurred to me I could use Elements as a document management system. I could create a separate catalog for the filed documents, and use Elements to tag and find tagged documents. It wouldn't be as easy as the tagging system I had on my old computer, but my guess is that Adobe and Elements will be around for many years and are more likely to be functioning 5, 10 or 20 years from now. If it disappears, there is enough of a user base of Elements users that it seems likely there will be some means to convert from Elements documents to some other application using tags and captions.
Does this make sense? Has anyone else traveled this path?

Now can you tell us what this program was called so that we can tell you if there is an update for it to run on Windows 8.1.
PSE13 is for photos/images and it can tag them and sort them and you can do wonders with it but the learning curve is quite steep especially if you are not computer geek. If you want to try it before spending any money then I suggest download a full trial version and run it free of charge for 30 days. You can post questions here if you get stuck with it and people will try to help you with it.
The trial can be downloaded from this link:
<http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=photoshop_elements&loc=us>
Direct link is here:

Good luck.

Office Document Imaging as Viewer with Archivelink ?

Hello,
i'm dealing with these Archivelink themes for the first time. We have an archive (SAPERION) which is connected to SAP Rel.4.7 using HTTP.
i've read the documentation but it's just confusing .
What would be the customizing ( OAA3, OAA4 ?? ) to use the Microsoft Document Imaging just to view documents ?
Is it possible to get the viewer user - dependend ( perhaps via exit ) - so that the usery could decide which viewer (ECL-Viewer or Microsoft ) they want to use ? i found in debuuging the table TOAEX but no documentation what to do with that .
An help would be appreciated ..
Regards Wolfgang

Hi Wolfgang,
If you would need to open the documents with Microsoft Office Document
Imaging without opening the document viewer,please do the following
settings in your system.
1.Launch the transaction OAC0.Double click on the respective content
repository.
2.Go to edit mode.click on the 'Full Adminstarion' tab.
3.Please maintain a protocol if not maintained already.for example the
protocol SAPHTTP.save it.
4.Launch the transaction OAA3.Create an entry with the same protocol and
the same version.Save it.
5.Double click on the protocol and it will take you to a screen
'Over view of protocol'.
Then click on 'Display Stored document' >Choose the document type
'TIF' >choose the communication type as 'ARCHIVELNK' >Click on
continue.
Similarly click on 'Retrieve Stored Document on Client PC' >choose the
communication type as 'TABLE' >Click on continue.
Then click on 'Display local file' >choose communicaion type as
'ARCHIVELNK' >Click on continue.
6.SAVE the settings.
Once the above setting is done,the document should get displayed with
the Microsoft Office Document Imaging in your system.
Best regards,
Christoph

Direct access to document image via webservice - best practice?

Howdy,
   Rookie "Post-er".... be gentle. I've searched and I've read... didn't find this. I've not taken training. I may be way off base.
We have multiple manufacturing sites around the world with local Operator Qualification appls that want to access the enterprise SAP DMS mfg document images (stop dual maint - enterprise & local).... without dependency on SAP ECC being up. If we can pass them DMS meta-data via near-realtime msgs (including the document image access "key" data); then we would assume they can direclty access KPRO for the document image as needed.
Would this be considered a "best practice"?   Webservice controlled (access only from known source).
Is PHIO-ID the only dynamic variable needed (based on info below I found in WIKI)?
*Alternatively, the url as below can be used to retrieve the documents from the content server[*http://<Server_Name>:<Port_No>/archive.dll?get&pVersion=<Version_No>&contRep=<Content_Rep>&docId=<PHIO_ID|http://<Server_Name>:<Port_No>/archive.dll?get&pVersion=<Version_No>&contRep=<Content_Rep>&docId=<PHIO_ID|\||]>
            <Server_Name> = Content server (IP address or name of content server)
            <Port_No> = Port No. of the server
            <Version_No> = Version No of content server (Transaction OACT)
            <Content_Rep> = content category of the server (Transaction OAC0)
            <PHIO_ID> = PHIO Id derived for each upload method

Hello,
This reply posted to help others who may refer this in the future.
As Amit Maheshwari mentioned, it is possible to give access to a document stored in the Content Server even when the partner system(ECC) is down.
As per your requirement, you want to access documents when the ECC System is down, but the content server is up and running.
The following steps can be of help to you:
1 - Create a program, that will create URL for the documents stored in the content server and send the URL to the external system.(Refer: FM- SDOK_PHIO_GET_URL_FOR_GET)
The URL refers to the public IP of the Internet Server on which the content server is hosted on.
2 - With this URL and few configurations on the Content Server (to allow access from external systems) you can fetch the file from the content server to the external system. Access privileges may vary based on your security settings.
Note: Since the ECC system will be down, creating URL for all the documents can be a bottleneck.
Probable Solution: While adding a document to the ECC system, the respective URL can be created and transferred to the external system along with the master details and stored there.
This can be undertaken if it is really important for the business, as it will increase the load for the external system. The solution can be modified based on the business requirement.
Thank you,

Document Management System in Oracle EBS

HI All,
does the EBS offer a document management system where I can store, check in/check out, display... documents with meta data and also original files (like a pdf or word file)?
If something like this exists, what are the corresponding objects and is there also an API for it (pl/sql or even better, web service)?
Many thanks,
Konrad

It is possible to store documents/attachments in Oracle EBS database.

This does not look a real "Document Management System" with meta data, version control, status handling and all that stuff, right?
If you are looking for a complete Document Management System, you may consider this product.

Document Management System

i want to write a Document Management System to read the content of the MS Word file and convert it to the PDF file using java.
Does any java api can do this??
Thank You

There are a number of solutions, none of which, unfortunately, are trivial:
In decreasing scale of difficulty:
a) Hand-code the entire solution. PDF and MS DOC are both well documented formats.
I wouldnt recommend you try this.
b) Use ready-made open source libraries:
Other than the ones mentioned earlier, there is an Apache Libraray (POI ?) which can be used for reading and writing streamed OLE objects (which is what a word doc is)
c) Use the Java-Activex bridge and use mature COM/Activex components
WinWord itself is an Activex component. There are loads of mature Activex components that can spew out PDF.
d) If platform is not an issue, use C# or VB.NET
I'll probably get flamed for this.
I am not a .NET advocate usually, but in this particular case you should be able to complete your task with least effort by using mature Activex libraries and one of the .NET languages.

hi
try with this
SAP DMS - Document Management System
SAP DMS are for storing documents such as CAD drawings, Materials pictures etc.
With the document management system, users will be able to view the documents with ease within their SAP systems.
Installing the SAP DMS requires a little bit of planning on how you want to do it.
You have to give a little thoughts to stuff such as :-
1. The total numbers of documents that will be store monthly.
2. The average file size of each documents.
3. The capacity of your present R/3 system.
4. Your present network bandwidth.
5.   Document Archiving Strategy.
6.   Backup and Recovery Plan.
Additional purchasing of hardware are required, especially if you have large amount of documents to stored.
With this in mind, you can then decide on how you want to do it.
You can do this in a few ways :-
1. Import the documents into the R/3 system.
2. Use an external document server.
3. Have a dedicated PCs where all the documents are stored.
Most companies that intend to used DMS will opt for Option 2 as they does not want to overstretch the R/3 database.
Options 1 requires you to setup the conversion interface.
The conversion interface allows R/3 to automatically covert your files and import it into the R/3 database.
Here is a simple example of storing documents into your PCs, just to have a feel how the SAP DMS works:-
For those using Citrix, you have to set this at the Citrix Server where the SAPGUI is located.
Configure SM30 - V_TDWE_C1
Put this command in your autoexec.bat
SET HOSTNAME=PC1234
Restart your pc.
You can create/manage your documents in transaction code CV01N / CV02N
Assigning Documents to a Material Master Record
Access a material master record in Create or Change mode, and select Basic Data.
To create links to documents, choose Additional data -> Document data.
The Link to Documents dialog box appears.
Assign one or more documents to the material.
If you do not know what the document number is, you can search for it using the search help or by choosing Find document.
When assigning a document to a material, you have the following options:
1. Viewing the document by choosing it in the Link to Documents dialog box.
2. Viewing any originals of the document by positioning the cursor on the document and
   choosing Display originals in the Link to Documents dialog box.
To return to the Basic Data screen, choose Continue.
Save your data.
all the best

Interface between SAP and Document management system

Hi,
I have a requirement to interface SAP 4.7 with a Document management system(Fakta).A vendor invoice will be created in SAP using FB60 transaction.The vendor invoice(in paper form) will be scanned by the Fakta digital document system.The Fakta system will handle the approval process for the vendor invoice and update the status of invoice in SAP as APPROVED.
My requirement is when an SAP user wants to see the scanned invoice stored in the fakta system,he should be able to view it from SAP preferably from FB60 or the document overview for the invoice in SAP.What is the best way to do this.
I found one option of using RSDEMO_HTML_VIEWER which may not be useful as we think.Is there a better option available?
Please share your experience.
Thanks in millions,
Leo

Hi
I'm sorry but I've never worked on this problem, but I think the better solution should be use SAP Archivelink, I know It should do what you want.
