Eivind,
You can't use operations that depend on a user being connected to a PC,
because in background of course you are NOT connected to a PC, i.e. the
fact that you are using a PC file is the problem.
You could use a network file instead.

Hi,
 
I'm trying to use functionmodule " SO_DOCUMENT_REPOSITORY_MANAGER " with
method "GETCONTENTFROMFILE"   in a workflow as a background task. I have
copied method "ImportFile" in object type "MESSAGE".
 
When I run my method as a test, the method is reacting correct and imports
my PC-file into my SAPOffice folder. The method is also reacting correct
when I put it into a workflow as a dialog task, but as soon as I put the
method into a workflow as a background task the functionmodule is not
updating anything.
 
I thought that this could have something to do with authorisations in
SAPOffice folders, but the problem is there still even if I add the
WF-Batch user to the authorization of the folder I want to upddate.
 
Have any of You any ideas in this area?
 
 
Best regard Eivind Bustnes
