Dear All,

Hi All,

This is possible with Assigning a Document that is Already Stored

Hi Sandeep,

I think the solution for you would be to

- first do the basic settings required for archivelink (OAC0, OAC2 and OAC3). Choose the appropriate document type and document class according to your needs.

- then to attach the document you wish, go to the business transaction and use 'store business document'.

Have a look at the following link under Connecting to Generic Object Services: Link:[http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_04/helpdata/EN/63/566039b85f9443e10000000a114084/frameset.htm]

Hope this helps,

Hi Naveen,

i have done these settings for archive link( OAC0, OAC2 and OAC3,SPRO settings).

Since i have all the documents scanned in optical archive attached to SAP server.

so i have created links in TOA01 table for all docs. Now i can serach my documents using TCode OAAD-> technical search.

Now my requirement is : when i do some new business transaction , i want to attach documents realated to this transaction whic are there stored in optical archive already.

how can i do this using GOS? give me some example using any busines object so that i can understand .

Hi Sandeep,

You might already know, for these kind of requirements, one of the archivelink scenarios is used. There are several standard archivelink scenarios available, for which you can refer Link:[http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp60_sp/helpdata/en/3b/6b9b3c874da309e10000000a114027/frameset.htm]

For your kind of scenario, where a document is already stored in external storage, without an link to the business document, refer to the storage scenario 'Assign Stored Document to a Material Document' in the 'Storing Incoming Delivery Notes' section in Link:[http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp60_sp/helpdata/en/3b/5dd7345a238045e10000009b38f83b/frameset.htm]

If you are very particular about GOS, then refer to the scenario 'Assigning an Object the Bar Code of a Document' in section 'Connecting to the Generic Object Services' in Link:[http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp60_sp/helpdata/en/4f/9932ce446d11d189700000e8322d00/frameset.htm]. Here it describes a scenario where the business object is entered first and document is scanned later, but you can try the converse of scanning the document earlier with a barcode and linking it later with a business object by entering the same barcode.

These are the possibilities I can think of. And based on how I understood your requirement, I feel that the second scenario described above will suit better.

Thanks,

Hi Sandeep,

This can be achived via GOS ( Generic Object Services) attachments. Kindly find following link for GOS:
