Move GOS attachment from one object to another object.

[Former Member]

Hi everyone,

I need to move GOS attatchments from customer object KNA1 general area to sales area (object KNVV) via background ABAP program and there are thousands of them. Here is my strategy:

1) Locate the attachment of object a via cl_binary_relation=>read_link( ) for object a (KNA1).

2) Create attachment to object b (KNVV) in the background.

3) Delete object a via cl_gos_document_services->delete_attachment method.

Only for step 2 to create attachment to object b, can I use cl_binary_relation=>create_link? like this:

try.

call method cl_binary_relation=>create_link

exporting

is_object_a = i_object_a

• ip_logsys_a =

is_object_b = i_object_b

• ip_logsys_b =

ip_reltype = i_reltype

• ip_propnam =

• i_property =

• IMPORTING

• ep_link_id =

• eo_property =

.

endtry.

If the answer yes, what is the value of i_object_a, i_object_b, i_reltype to pass to this method?

There is a discussion about link the relationship between 2 objects where i_reltype = 'ASGN'

but

my situation is to move, not to create another link so I do not know if this aproach works.

There is method add_attachment in cl_gos_document_service but it prompt you to upload the file in the foreground and I do not have the file.

Your guidance will be appreciated.

Thanks to Nameish Patel, I was able to accomplish my requirement after reading his link:

http://help-abap.blogspot.com/2010/11/generic-object-services-gos-toolbar.html

I move an existing attachment to a different object, therefore I used

CL_GOS_SERVICE_TOOLS->move_linked_objects

But you can create attachment using

CL_GOS_DOCUMENT_SERVICE->create_attachment OR

CL_BINARY_RELATIONS->CREATE_LINK

Here are some very helpful link that I found:
