Issue in adding the PDF attachment to user decision work item

181 Views

Hi Experts,

In my scenario, I have a User decision step and i want to attach the existing smart form as PDF attachment

to the work item of user decision step itself.

for achiving this i have used the Program Exit Tab of the User decision step; i have created one class which has implemented the standard

SAP interface IF_SWF_IFS_WORKITEM_EXIT. Within the method EVENT_RAISED, i have written the following logical steps.

below steps will work only after work item creation event, i.e. SWRCO_EVENT_AFTER_CREATION

  • got the work item Id of the user decision step through the method import parameter
  • got the OTF data for the existing smart form and converted them to the XSTRING format using the FM CONVERT_OTF.
  • used the FM SAP_WAPI_ADD_ATTACHMENT as shown below.

IST_OTF_DATA[] = GD_JOB_OUTPUT-OTFDATA.

CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERT_OTF'

EXPORTING

FORMAT = 'PDF'

MAX_LINEWIDTH = 10

IMPORTING

BIN_FILESIZE = GD_PDF_LENGTH

BIN_FILE = GD_PDF_XSTRING

TABLES

OTF = IST_OTF_DATA

LINES = IST_LINES

EXCEPTIONS

ERR_MAX_LINEWIDTH = 1

ERR_FORMAT = 2

ERR_CONV_NOT_POSSIBLE = 3

ERR_BAD_OTF = 4

OTHERS = 5.

LS_FILE_HEADER-FILE_TYPE = 'B'.
CONCATENATE SY-DATUM SY-UZEIT 'MYFILE' INTO LS_FILE_HEADER-FILE_NAME. "File name
LS_FILE_HEADER-FILE_EXTENSION = 'PDF'.
LS_FILE_HEADER-LANGUAGE = 'EN'.


refresh: LST_SWR_MESSAG,LST_SWR_MSTRUC.
CALL FUNCTION 'SAP_WAPI_ATTACHMENT_ADD'
EXPORTING
WORKITEM_ID = LV_ID "work item ID
ATT_HEADER = LS_FILE_HEADER
ATT_BIN = GD_PDF_XSTRING "Parameter FM CONVERT_OTF
DOCUMENT_OWNER = SY-UNAME
IMPORTING
RETURN_CODE = LS_RETURN_CODE
ATT_ID = LS_ATTCH_ID
TABLES
MESSAGE_LINES = LST_SWR_MESSAG
MESSAGE_STRUCT = LST_SWR_MSTRUC.

Issue is: after executing this FM, LS_RETURN_CODE value is 7; LST_SWR_MESSAG contains message as 'Unable to create attachment'

LST_SWR_MSTRUC contains 1 row as message ID SWR and message no 220.

Work item does not contain any attachment.

please do the needful.
