Create attachment using GOS

Former Member — Mon, 02 Jul 2007 20:46:03 GMT

Hi All,

I am working in SAP GTS (Global trade service) project.

My requirement is to attach a document (doc, pdf, xls, jpeg) to the customs declaration document.

I had to do this via a report program. This program will run every night. It will attach the document for the document number created for the day.

How do I proceed....

I read some threads relating to this requirement, but I do I implement it in a program...

1. First I had to do the attachment

2. I had to link the attachment to the document no

How to proceed... please help......

Where are these files, on application server?

Hi ,

The files are PC files.. These files are stored in a server and the file name corresponds to the document no....

So... I have to read the document nos from the table and have to attach the document ( which is in the PC folder) which corresponds to the doc. number

Thanks....

Your first issue is that this program will not be able to run in background if the files are on the frontend PC or other server. If that is ok, then I have a funciton module which you pass the file path and name, the business object id, and key and it will automatically upload to the GOS of that document number. Can this program be ran in foreground?

It is ok to run this in the foreground? If not, this funciton will do you absolutly no good.

Actually it appears that I do not have access to the system at the moment, if you send me an email(on my business card) I can get it to you in the morning.

Also,if you are interested, the code within this function module uses alot of the code seen here, just modified to upload from a filepath/filename.

BTW, it is a custom function module, it will not exist in your system.
