Integrate Document Builder to SRM (wihtout using PPS or XI)

[Former Member]

Hi all,

I am using SRM 7.0 and I want to use the Document builder with SRM without activation the PPS (Procurement for Public Sector) business scenario and without XI.

I looked at some documentation at the service market place

https://websmp204.sap-ag.de/~form/sapnet?_SHORTKEY=01100035870000676863&;

and also found the Wiki entry:

http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/DocBuilder/DocumentBuilder3ContentConfiguration+Guide

But the first seem to imply the use of PPS, and the second one describes the configuration of a stand-alone mode, which means that Document Builder is not integrated to another component.

Can anyone give me any advice on how to integrate the document builder into SRM without using PPS or XI?

Thanks very much.

Regards

Ulrike

Hi,

I think solution is only custom integration.

Hi Roman , i thank you for your reply.
Indeed i managed to generate the word document, a basic one in fact, but now i want to connect the document builder with the SRM system. In fact i need to define external variables. Those variables must be generated automatically by the document builder from the SRM system .

Can you help me

Hi,

Do you have any solution on this? It seems web service method cannot return the attachments from Doc builder to SRM. Can we implement that by PI?

HI to all. Yes I have solution to integrate DocB with any sap module without PI. Not need to activate SRM.

Hi,

Thank you, Roman, for creating the helpful instructions on integrating Document Builder with HCM using Web Services (Cross-application synchronized integration - SAP Document Builder - SCN Wiki).

Document Builder can be integrated to any SAP application in a similar fashion to how Roman describes in his link; however, in the case of SRM with Procurement for Public Sector (PPS) there is out-of-the-box configurable integration available that shortcuts this process.  Licensed PPS customers can access the PPS integration aide by activating the PPS switch.

Hi, OUISSAM.

You have to configure you DocB document, test it in DocB App. Than closely look to my post in wiki and you can see that input parameter for Z* program is XML with filled data to Document.

If you do all right you will see generated WORD document in fontend.

Hello,

My client has the exact requirement to integrate Document Builder with SRM without PPS or PI (XI). I am wondering if you have implemented the same integration. I'd appreciate it greatly if you could share some of your experiences or conclusion in this regard.

Thanks!

Hi Jay,

We also have the same requirement of integrating the document builder with SRM without activating the PPS.
