Missing DMS functionality (create DIR directly from object side)

Former Member

Dear SAP experts,
I have trouble configuring my SAP DMS so that I can create DIR in an easy way (directly from ME51N, ME52N transactions)

Problem:
In ME51N/ME52N, there's no 'create document' option (icon) in a document links for position window (look at the picture below).

What I've learned so far:
According to THIS answer, by setting the 'Additional Functions' in the object link customizing of transaction DC10 to enabled, the 'Create Document' option should already be available. But it doesn't work for me.
Here's an example of what a dialog window with 'create document' option should look like:

(source: SAP Note 2308165)

Also, by looking up some other forum questions on DMS, I've developed a list of configurations required to get access to the 'Create DIR' functionality:

  • DC10, Link my document type to required object (EBAN) [DONE]
  • DC10, Define object links, Create document - 1 Create simple document [DONE]
  • DC10, Define object links, enable additional functions [DONE]
  • (optional) DC10, Define document types, Set "Document description" field to "optional input" [DONE]

How do I get 'create document' option? Please help me figure out what I did wrong or if I'm missing something.

Thanks in advance.

Hello Aaron

Please select the second option from the screen. The All versions and you should get the create document icon visible..

For current version selection this is not available.
