SAP Workflow & ArchiveLink Tables

[Brian Bennings]

The MR1M (LIV invoice) uses business object BUS2081.  In addition, you should be
using TS3001128 for early archiving and TS3001117 for late archiving.  These
were created to replace TS00007869.

Hi all,
 
I have created a function module (called externally from SAP) which creates
work items, based on standard SAP workflow document types, and places them
into the SAP Inbox.
 
>From the SAP inbox, the workflow items are processed through an appropriate
SAP transaction (e.g. MR01 or F-43), and a link is made in table toa01
representing the connection between a record in table BKPF, and an image in
SAP ArchiveLink.
 
Thus far, I have encountered no problems in using this, until I attempted to
created workflow items for processing through transaction MR1M (I had to
create a new WF Document type based on task TS00007869).
 
Problem: the link in table toa01 is NOT created, though the rest of the
process runs as normal.  There appear to be no problems with the WF document
configuration - the link table (toa01) is defined and activated.
 
I have spent a considerable amount of time analysing why this may be the
case.
 
The only thing I can think of is that the object type underlying the
document (BKPF) may be incorrect.  Transaction MR1M seems to use table RBKP
first and foremost, despite a BKPF record being created.  Sadly, there is no
object type for table RKBP.
 
Looking through past posts in this forum, I noticed that someone with, what
appears to be, a similar problem created a new multi-step workflow,
incorporating the standard task TS00007869, and a newly defined task based
on a method to create an entry in toa01 describing the link between the
document image and the BKPF record (using function
ARCHIV_CONNECTION_INSERT).
 
I have tried to set this up, but now the bloody thing's not working at
all!!!!!! - it is not even creating a work item in the SAP inbox now.
 
If anyone can help me, please do - I am at my wits' end!!!!
 
Thanks in advance,
 
Tim
