SRM and DMS linkage

[Former Member]

Hi SAP Gurus,

Hi SAP Gurus,

1) How will we link DMS content server to the SRM server, like we do with SAP R/3 and content server.

the senario is the vendor has to see the documents stored in DMS along with other details in SRM

and reply suitably,

right now SRM is using a concept called C-folder to communicate with vendors,

2) is C-folders similar like WEB-DMS,

3) if for 1000s of vendor to access the documents of DMS these vendors should have SAP User ID and Password ?

Thanks in Advance,

Kumar K

Hi Kumar,

If the requirement is dat vendor wants to see documents stored in DMS along with other other details in SRM then you can go for object linking.

in DMS u can select or create a object for SRM which creates integration with SRM and then vice-versa u can see the documents in DMS or from SRM.

Yes..now SRM is using concept of c-Folders for communicating with vendors,since c-Folders has functionality of maintaining public and private collaboration scenarios so c-Folders is being used to communicate between Suppliers and Vendors.

c-Folders is not like webDMS, it is a separate application for which the link can be created from portal itself.

in c-Folders user ID and password can be created which need not have any licenses.

Thank You,

Dear Manoj,

Thanks for reply.

let me please know which is the object that has to to be linked and the relevent screen No,

if a new object and screen has to be created then which is that and what are the features it should have and whisc tables and fields it should update,

as you have explained for C-folders, if the link we provide to external vendors through WEB DMS, then for those vendor who want to access the link and the DIR should they have Valid SAP user ID and password.

please give any documents regarding the same to my ID at profile, if possible

Thanks and Regards
