Document templates via web browser in 46B

[Rickayzen, Alan]

Peter,
The 'Create Document from Template' step relies on OLE and only works from
the Windows GUI.
The only type of form which works in all GUIs and all inboxes (e.g. Windows
Business Workplace, Enterprise Portals Universal inbox, ITS Inbox) are the
"Web services". There are Webex cams on the WebFlow service market place
which show this.
 
This would involve development because you would have to migrate the forms
from MS Office to HTML/Perl/ASP or whatever.
 
 
Kind regards,

Subject: Document templates via web browser in 46B
 
 
Fellow workflowers,
 
Our company currently has many forms that are either MS Word or MS Excel
templates.  These templates could be very easily 'workflowed' in SAP using
the 'Create Document from Template' step and a workflow start transaction.
 
My manager has asked how easy would it be to access these workflowed forms
via a web browser?   We already have ESS installed and running and are on
version 4.6B.  Does anyone know what steps I need to take (broadly speaking)
to do this?
 
Thanks and regards
