Hi Wayne,
I have built a number of processes around Invoice scanning using IXOS and
other products such as FILENET.
The task you use will depend on your requirements - for simple data input TS
7869 (and its successor in later releases) work fine.
For more complicated requirements involving approvals etc. I have used my
own workflow templates. There is a wizard to help you create these,
transaction OAWW. For these workflows I have used the IMAGELINK object to
do the linking.
Hope this helps

Thank you Robin, I will try that.
Just curious, Do you use Task 7869 in SOA0 (standard task) or do you use
your own task or workflow template?
Document Type - FIIINVOICE
Object Type - BKPF
Thank you,
Wayne Carson

We have a custom workflow using IXOS imaging for early archiving in 4.0b. We
also have a workflow step in which a FI transaction is called and an Image
displayed in a separate desktop window. We have defined the following
methods
and it works fine.
Methods before work item execution (modal call)
IMAGE DISPLAY
Methods after work item execution (modal call)
IMAGE WINDOWCLOSE
We have no entry in the secondary methods (amodal call)
I hope this works for you too.

Please respond to

I am working on an AP Scanning project. I found an Object Type - IMAGE that
has several methods associated with it. Within a Workflow Template, I have
a certain step where I want to display an IMAGE (from content repository -
iXOS) and at the same time display an invoice (trans FB60 or MIRO). I was
told that this can be accomplished by using a secondary method (amodal
call). I am first trying to test the different methods available with
object type IMAGE to find one that will work for my business case. Have any
of you used the IMAGE object type for a similar situation and if so, then
what method was used? I tried DISPLAY and it didn't work. In transaction
OAM1, I can display the stored image without any problem.
We are using iXOS with Early Archiving. Based on the type of invoice, I
will either create a work item for transaction FB60 or MIRO, depending upon
whether or not a PO is associated with the invoice.
Thank you,
Wayne Carson
