Problem attaching file in SRM

[Former Member]

While accepting offer from a supplier, before transform it in a purchase order, it'd like to attach a file. It doesn't matter which kind of file (.doc,.xls,.txt,etc...) I've tried all type.

I'm doing it pushing on "Upload" button, but it seems i'm not allowed to insert file. The system error is "For this document, there's no correct data to upoload".

Does someone know if there are any settings for user/group/profile? How can i do this operation?

Thanks in advance,

Christian

Thank you so much to both.

But I think my problem is before. From your answers it seems that documents, to be attached, had to be sent to backend system. Is it right?

My problem is insert file before purchase order. I would like to put a document in the Quotation Request. I push the button "Upload" after selecting the correct file.

Sorry for my stupid question...

Thanks a lot!

Christian,

Can you upload a file in the shopping cart? If you can do that you don't need any other customizing.

You can upload a file when you are creating a bid invitation but then, when you want to create a purchase order after you have received the bid invitation you cannot.

If you want to upload a file in the bid invitation and there's no way to do it and in the shopping cart it works, then open an OSS message. In my system it works and other than activating the sicf service I did not do anything else.

Hi Christian,

"But I think my problem is before. From your answers it seems that documents, to be attached, had to be sent to backend system. Is it right?"

No ,You need not send docs to backend for attachment.

What Nimish has explained you, are settings for uploading attachment in EBP shopping carts and viewing in R/3 purchase requisitions in Self service procurement.

What scenario you are working in?

From yr initial post it seems that you want your suppliers to upload the attachment which will be done in 'SUS' (supplier self services).

Is it right?

Hi Christian

Did you do the customizing steps according to the self service procurement config guide (pages 27 + 28)?

In SICF you have to activate service sap/ebp/docserver.

If you want the attachments to be transferred to the backend as well you have to implement BAdI BBP_CREATE_PO_BACK (for purchase orders) and/or BBP_CREATE_REQ_BACK (for purchase requisitions). In the BAdI code you have to set CV_ATTACH_TRANSFER_ACTIVE = 'X'.

In the backend system you have to configure document management system (DMS). See above mentioned config guide for details.

Hope this helps.

Kind regards,
