Object link to PP material/serialnumber combination

Former Member

Hello,

I am looking for a solution to link a document info record to a material number / serial number combination. This material number / serial number is unique and has a equipment number. In DMS it is possible to link the document to an equipment, but then i have the problem i cannot search for the serial number in DMS which is linked to this equipment. The material/serialnumber is in the table: EQUI / SER05 /

Can we somehow fill in the object link the material / serialnumber combination?

Best regards,

Nick

Copy of screen for equipment and make settings to fill in material/serialnumber

Simply solution would be to link via equipment and then add the serial field in classification for search. Classification is there specifically for searching.

You can link the classification field directly to the table/field as well so that it validates the number. (we use this with USR02 for example to link a classification field to a drop down of user names)

A person scans the material number and serial number in an external program. This external program calls a BAPI to submit it to SAP to create a DIR. But at that moment we don't know the equipment number. That's why we would like to fill in material/serialnumber in the object link.

From what I understand, you should be able to add classification to an object link as well. This might solve your problem. I've seen the functionality there but never found a use for it so this might work for you.

Is it possible to copy a screen from se80 function group CV130 to make an own screen, where we can fill material/serialnumber?

But can i search with CV04N then to a serialnumber or do i have to search for a material/serialnumber combination?

You could create a zcopy of the cv04n to get whatever you want for that as well.

But say if i change the screen so i can fill in material/serialnumber. Can i search for only a serialnumber or do i have to search for material/serialnumber?

Depends on the way you design it. Thats the whole thing about designing zscreen, you can design them the way you want to.

Personally, I'd avoid doing screens at all costs, there are always other ways to build the functionality in with classification and its normally safer for changes to build them on these because you aren't impacting on other document types or areas.

Okay i understand, but it makes no sence to make an object link to an equipment number? It is a material/serialnumber combination. But in the screen sequence i can say how i can search in CV04N?

So only on serialnumber? Sorry for all those questions, but it is important for me to prepare DMS for best of breath situation.
