SO_DOCUMENT_INSERT_API1(suggested a while ago by Jocelyn Dart )

Thu Feb 12 15:13:18 EST 2004

Hi Monica,=20

1. foldertype (FOL), folderyear and foldernumber should be in the =
S_USER_DATS?
2. documenttype, documentyear and documentnumber - from DOC_INFO?
2. you pass SOFM object instance that you've created as the export =
parameter

regards,
Sergey

Hi Jocelyn,

I did create a subtype to SOFM and added a method to it.  In my method I
have the following code:

DATA: DOCID TYPE SWC_OBJECT.
--
--

CALL FUNCTION 'SO_DOCUMENT_INSERT_API1'

EXPORTING
FOLDER_ID =3D S_USER_DATS-OUTBOXFOL
DOCUMENT_TYPE =3D 'OBJ'

IMPORTING
DOCUMENT_INFO =3D DOC_INFO

TABLES
OBJECT_HEADER =3D OBJECT_HEADER

EXCEPTIONS
OTHERS =3D 1.

(then I am extracting the document-id out of the doc info)
DOC_ID =3D DOC_INFO-DOC_ID.

(then I want to instantiate a SOFM object reference from the document =
id)
SWC_CREATE_OBJECT DOCID 'SOFM' DOC_ID.

Does this instantiate an SOFM object reference only with DOC_ID.  =
Normally I
know that you need to put the key values of the object.  In this case =
SOFM
has key values- foldertype, folderyear, foldernumber , type , year, =
number
and forwardername.  How do I get all these values if I need to specify =
it.

Also when I do the above- do I also have to create DOCID as an export
parameter for this method so that I can pass it to the "attachments" =
element
of the selfitem-sendtaskdesctiption step.

I am a little confused.  Please advise.

Thanks.

Regards,
Monica
