Archiving

[Former Member]

We are trying to bulid an archiving process using Early archiving. The

steps are as follows

1. Scan W9 document from IXOS.

2. Execute OAWD to archive the document.A workitem is created.

3. Execute the Workitem . The custom Business object associated with

the workitem executes a custom transaction where the key fields of the

object are entered and a transaction (XK02) is executed in the

background.

4. When the transaction is complete - it completes the entire process.

In step 3 we are using the above mentioned function module

ARCHIV_CONNECTION_COMPOSE to create the link and

ARCHIV_CONNECTION_INSERT to store the data in the link table TOA01.

However , the ARC_DOC_ID is returned as blank in the function

ARCHIV_CONNECTION_COMPOSE and stored as blank in in table TOA01.

Question: Why is the ARC_DOC_ID not generated using this function? It

is one of the parametrs in the importing parameters.

Can anyone who has worked on something similar give some ideas if this is the right process.

Thanks

Hi,

As far as I know ARCHIV_CONNECTION_COMPOSE does not generate document id. Document ID has to be passed while calling this function.

You can use the following function to generate Document ID SYSTEM_UUID_C_CREATE

Hope this helps

Thanks for your tip Samanjay . But the archiving doc id is generated when we mass archive using OAWD. I want to read this arc_doc_id back in my object for creating the link in TOA01.

Hi Veethika,

Your question is not very clear. Please explain in details as to what exactly you are doing? What scenario are you using with OAWS? Store and assign or something else?

Meanwhile check the report OAUPDATE_LINK. This may help you.

We are using OAWD to mass archive the documents and create a work item for each document..

The ARC_DOC_ID is generated at that point.

When the Work Item is executed it executes a custom transaction and stores the data in the document through the custom transaction into custom tables.

We had to create the link in TOA01 so that if we want to display the document again.

I used the ARCH...INSERT function for this. I was able to read the arc_doc_id from the container of the work item and pass it to TOA01 through the function module./ This resolved my problem.
