Get file from DMS

elko_hasse — Fri, 11 Feb 2011 16:11:17 GMT

Hello everybody,

I want to load a file from DMS via a function module. I need the file content in a int. table.

I know the way of using FM SDOK_PHIO_LOAD_CONTENT. But this will only work if the file is checked in into KPro. In transaction CV02N the little lock in the Original Overview is then closed.

But as long as the lock is open (file is not checked in into Kpro) the above FM wont work.

Which FM can I use to either get files not checked in or to get all files (checked in and not checked in).

Thanks,

Elko

Check DMS_GEN_DOCUMENT_TO_OBJECT

In se37 please search form dmsdocument* you will find a list.

Thanks for your answer,

but FM DMS_GEN_DOCUMENT_TO_OBJECT just returns the attributes and the ID of the document, NOT the actuall content.

I am looking for a FM that returns the binary or hex data of the Original of the document. Just like SDOK_PHIO_LOAD_CONTENT, but for Docs not checked in into Kpro.

Thanks,

Elko

check bapi BAPI_DOCUMENT_GETDETAIL2 and see if it helps..

thanks fpr your reply,

but this BAPI only returns information about the document, not the document itself. I need the binary data of the physical document - returned in a int. table.

Like FM SDOK_PHIO_LOAD_CONTENT returns, but for documents not checked in.

Thanks

Have a look at SCMS_DOC_READ.

Solution is to check in the document into KPro.

Then the know function modules will work.
