EHS - CG36 - Import report - Set MSDS version from key file data

Hi.

This is in reference to thread EHS - CG36 - Import report - how to define MSDS version in key file?

I'm faced with the same client requirement, came across this discussion, and wondering if there was a solution to this.

I'm on ECC6.0. My client requests to retain the Version of the MSDS at the time of export (CG54 Dok-X, VER key file data) when it gets imported to another system (CG36). Example (similar to Roy's): If the reports in export system are 1.0 and 2.0, then they must be created in the import system the same, not 1.0 and 1.1.

Apparently, as Christoph has stated, the standard CG36 Import process doesn't make use of the VER key file data besides storing it into the Report's Additional Info (DMS Class charact.).

I tried to get around this via the user exit. In the IMPORT fm, I set the version/subversion of the report to be created but the C1F3 fm that does the actual report creation just ignores it. If you've done a similar approach, what have I missed? I'm also afraid if I have to clone the C1F3 fm...

I appreciate your thoughts and inputs.

Thanks in advance.

Excerpt from my fm ZC13G_DOKX_SDB_IMPORT:
