cProjects and DMS

[Former Member]

Hi,

We're in the BBP phase and wondering if we are going to use DMS for structuring documents in relation to cProject. However as I can read this is more or less an object link. Is there possibilities to automatically copy the cProjects structure into a DMS structure?

When using easy document management it is possible to a link from the document to project definition level and tasks in cProjects?

All relevant documentation and desciptions are interesting!!!

Regards Camilla

Hi,

We have DMS functionality built inside cProjects itself. You can include documents at the Project definition level or at the task level. You may either upload your document from your desktop or checkin as a URL. By using WebDAV you can manage your cProject documents in Windows Explorer. Also it is possible to transfer the documents that you have checked in inside cProjects to SAP DMS. By using object link, you can refer to a document existing within SAP inside a cProject. You can also edit the document from within cProjects.

p.s. I hope the above answer would be useful for you. In case you find it useful please give me points.

thanks

Hi Anantharam,

What do you mean by having the DMS functionality built inside cProjects itself? That you have allowed for DMS for the project type? Still that means that you must create the structure in DMS? As I have seen it is an object link from cProject to DMS...

How is the procedure for transfer documents that you have checked in inside cProjects to SAP DMS?

Thanks, Camilla

This is the procedure for transferring documents from cProjects to SAP DMS

1) In the project type definition in the back end, select the check box for SAP DMS

2) Ensure that you have specified the RFC destination for the sytem to which you have to transfer the documents by using transaction SM59

3) For the document type that you would be using, include the object link DPR_OBJLINK inside the configuration for document type

4) Once you log into cProjects you can find the tab SAP DMS .

5) You can continue creating the document info record once you are inside SAP DMS

6) You can upload the document of the type for which you had defined the object link DPR_OBJLINK

7) Once steps 5 -6 are done you can view the document inside SAP DMS

P.S. Please kindly give me points if you find the answer useful

cheers

thanks.

One more question: If documents are allready uploaded to the usual document tab in cProjects are these then also saved in DMS? If not, how can you easy save them there?

That's easy. Create a document info record and there is a transfer document button inside that view. Using that you can transfer the document that has been uploaded.

The help link I have already seen.
