Attachment Modification

[Rappaport, Jeff]

Thomas,

   Thanx for your response, I would love to use WF_DOC, but
unfortunately with it's 255 Char limits to it's elements it won't
accomplish the objects of large dynamic tables. The Adobe Interactive is
a little too expensive for the Client at around $10,000 per Form. We're
right now looking into creating the Spec as a SmartForm, converting it
to a PDF & then passing it around for a User to paste a Graphic into it
using Adobe Pro. The problem is when the PDF attachment appears they can
modify it, but it appears they'll need to save it as a new copy to their
desktop & then attach it as a 2nd copy to the work item. I'm looking to
somehow have the save automated to the original, of course it may not be
possible right now. We are on 6.4 ECC 5.0.

Thanx,

Jeff,

You can use the 'Document from Template' functionality supplied in
standard Workflow (see insertable step types).  After you have
configured correctly, the first executed work item will bring up a Word
document (as an example) with fields pre-populated.  Changes are made
and the document saved, routed to the next agent, more changes made and
so on.

With newer releases (I believe 6.40) of SAP you can use SAP/Adobe
Interactive Forms for modifiable PDF documents.

Regards,
Thomas Maue

SWUG'ers,

   Is there a way for the User to bring up the attachment (Word, Excel,
PDF, etc) to their work item, modify it and then have it automatically
saved in the work item, without the User having to save it to their
desktop as a new file & then attaching the new file to the work item as
a 2nd attachment?

Thanx,
