[madan_c]

Hi Everyone,

I have PDF file exist in AL11 and want to upload same file in DMS system using BAPI: BAPI_DOCUMENT_CHANGE2 . Created DMS document number first using BAPI: BAPI_DOCUMENT_CREATE , then calling change BAPI to attach document from application server by giving application server path and file name. Please guys, it's bit urgent, have been trying from past 2 days, but couldn't achieve this.

Could you pls suggest me, is it possible to upload file from Al11 into DMS ? It seems, it's possible, but couldn't find a way.

Check the authorization object 'S_GUI' id 'ACTVT' field '60'.

[madan_c]

Hi Ibrahim,

Have mentioned auth and value as shown below. Any other suggestion.

FYI... I have SAP_ALL

[FredericGirod]

to check authorization use ST01

[jerryjanda]

madan.c I removed the image because it included usernames, which I thought might be personal identifying information. (Please see rules of engagement: https://community.sap.com/resources/rules-of-engagement.) You're welcome to add the image back or upload a new one as long as you're certain that you aren't including any personal information that would violate our rules of engagement.

In the blog you refer to, there are two parameters not use in your code.

 
CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_DOCUMENT_CREATE2'
  EXPORTING
    documentdata    = ls_documentdata
    pf_ftp_dest     = 'SAPFTPA'      <----
    pf_http_dest    = 'SAPHTTPA'     <---- 

[madan_c]

Hi...

Though i passed these 2 parameters initially, got same message. So i changed calling change bapi instead of create2 bapi.

[FredericGirod]

When you check the error message Where-used, this is always used to real local file (from sapgui). So I think the key of this blog is to use this SAPFTPA or SAPHTTA to simulate reading local file.

If you read the comments behind the blog, some people have issue with this blog and do another way.

[madan_c]

Hi Frederic,

As said, though i used SAPFTPA or SAPHTTA, i got same error message. My requirement is clear that, want to attach file in DMS by creating DMS document number from application server.

As per blog: https://blogs.sap.com/2013/11/25/create-an-sap-dms-document-attaching-a-file-from-the-application-se...

it's possible to attch document in DMS by providing application server path and file name. But i'm not able to achieve this.

Can anyone pls provide working code, if you have already or suggest me at least what else i need to follow.

Regards

As said by Frederic, use SAPFTPA/SAPHTTPA.

Are you sure that the file exists on your application server (double check the name and path, pay attention to lower case and upper case). Eventually,

Are you sure you have FTP and file system authorization (transaction ST01)?

If you never used SAPFTPA before, try to regenerate it by calling the program RSFTP005.

Eventually do an RFC trace on SAPFTPA via SM59 and run program RSRFCTRC (I don't know what it will trace). BE CAREFUL: deactivate the trace after you have used it.

[madan_c]

Hi Sandra,

Yea. The PDF file exist in application server that should be uploaded in DMS. As you suggested, cross checked application server path and file name, everything seems ok, and called program: RSFTP005, and checked the Trace as well in ST01. Frankly speaking, didn;t get any trace.

Tried again by passing SAPFTPA/SAPHTTPA using BAPI:BAPI_DOCUMENT_CREATE2, am still getting same error. Any other suggestions to work it out or any working code .

I'm sorry but people won't help you faster because it's "very urgent". You know, People only care of their own colleagues/friends... 😉

[Sandra_Rossi]

In your screenshot, there is the variable LS_RET, but your code doesn't contain it (I only see LS_RETURN). Can you explain?

[madan_c]

Hi Sandra,

Please find below code.

CLEAR ls_documentdata.
ls_documentdata-documenttype = dms_key-dokar. "'ZRM'.
ls_documentdata-description = lv_dartxt. "'Testing DMS-Ecratum'.
ls_documentdata-username = sy-uname.
ls_documentdata-statusextern = 'RE'.

ls_drat-language = 'EN'.
ls_drat-description = 'Test file'.
APPEND ls_drat TO lt_drat.

CLEAR ls_files.
ls_files-originaltype = '1'.
ls_files-storagecategory = 'SAP-SYSTEM'.
ls_files-docpath = '/usr/sap/trans/'.
ls_files-docfile = 'example.pdf'.
ls_files-description = 'Testing file.pdf'.
ls_files-wsapplication = 'PDF'.
ls_files-language = sy-langu.
APPEND ls_files TO lt_files.

CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_DOCUMENT_CREATE2'
EXPORTING
documentdata = ls_documentdata
pf_ftp_dest = 'SAPFTPA'
pf_http_dest = 'SAPHTTPA'
IMPORTING
documenttype = lv_docty
documentnumber = lv_docnr
documentpart = lv_docpr
documentversion = lv_docvr
return = ls_ret
TABLES
documentfiles = lt_files

documentdescriptions = lt_drat.

IF ls_ret-type NE 'E'.
CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT'
EXPORTING
wait = abap_true.
ELSE.
CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_TRANSACTION_ROLLBACK' .
ENDIF.

Getting below error while running

[Sandra_Rossi]

Eventually look at the code I have posted here.

[madan_c]

Hi Sandra,

Thank you very much for provided code, but still i'm getting sam error. Created dummp program and run in background as well. But no luck. Any other suggestion pls....
