Storing and Linking from background

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

We have documents stored in OmniDocs Document Management systems. These documents need to be linked to SAP Business Objects (Sales Order etc.). Our development environment is Java/JCo. I had seen several posts with this scenario but need the exact BAPIs calls either ArchiveLink or DMS .

Any help in answering will be greatly appreciated

1. How to create a entry in TAO1 table or DIR? Documents in OmniDocs have doc ids .

2. How to link the entry in TAO1 table or DIR to a SAP Business Object (Sales Order)?

3. Can a SAP Business Object (sales order) be searched ? eg. by Sales Order number.

Thanks you all in advance.

Resolved myself.

Use the following FMs

1. ARCHIV_CONNECTION_INSERT to create entry in TOA01/.. table.

2. OBJECT_ID parameter (eg. Sales Order#)is used to link archive document with a Transaction (Sales Order)

James,

Were you able to update the TOA01 table using java/jco programming. I have a similar requirement so I will appreciate if you can share the steps for the code.

Thanks,

The FM ARCHIV_CONNECTION_INSERT requires the following parameters

archiv_id = Z1 (REPOSITORY NAME)

arc_doc_id = 1234567 (ARCHIVE DOCUMENT ID)

ar_object = ZFIINVOICE

mandant = CLIENT #

object_id = 0000006201 (invoice#)

sap_object = BUS20XX (Invoice object Type)

doc_type = PDF

pass the parameters and execute the function.

Please let me know if this helped.

Thanks for the list of BAPIs but without providing the exact steps they are useless.

Sorry for the typo in the table name. Any help in answering will be greatly appreciated.

Hi Amaresh,

Could you demystify BAPI's and their applicability in DMS? (Havent come across satisfactory explanation on net) Thanks
