EDI Invoices and Archiving attachments

[Lola Oluwa]

Hi Richard,
Thanks for your response, it appears that your solution relies on the fact
that the document already exists in the content server (perhaps scanned
through a scan dialog)? The desired solution here is to avoid any manual
input.
To re-iterate my question a bit clearer, how do I get the initial link to
the content server from say my pc. I know that this requires some detailed
knowledge of the archivelink interface.... I was hoping that someone might
have done this before (content server is ixos).
 
Best Regards,
Lola.

Hi Lola,
 
I used a few SAP function modules to do linking and archiving.
 
My early archiving used the following
 
ARCHIV_CONNECTDEFINITION_GET to get the archive id
ARCHIVOBJECT_CREATE_DIALOG to get the archived document number
 
The document number was initially stored on a custom table.
 
My late archiving to an Accounts Payable document used
 
ARCHIV_GET_CONNECTIONS to establish the connection between the archive
and SAP object
ARCHIV_CONNECTION_INSERT to provide the actual link
 
Of course there was a lot more to this such as configuration and custom
code to carry the information throughout the process.
 
Richard...

Hi,
I have the following requirement:
 
1) trigger a workflow from incoming IDoc interface
2) "attachments" to the invoices arrive separatelly and are stored on
say,
a local server, these are to be linked and archived with the incoming
invoice (background task).
 
I have a solution for the first task, I have a concept for the second
part
but  would like to hear how anyone else has implemented this scenairo.
 
 
Best Regards,
Lola.
