workflow attachments

[Jeffrey A. Rappaport]

Sharath,

   How I've done it in the past is:

1) Create the SAP Folder for an Attachment calling FM: SO_FOLDER_ROOT_ID_GET.

2) Convert the File to an SAP Office Doc calling FM:
SO_DOCUMENT_REPOSITORY_MANAGER.

3) Attach the the Doc to the WF calling FM: SWL_WI_NOTE_CREATE.

After the Doc is attached to the WF it can be passed to any Send email Step.
