Storing SD invoices in Documentum

[Former Member]

Hi all:

I need to store outgoing invoices generated by the sales department into Documentum content server.

I've made the following customizing, but I think I need to do anything else, as it doesn't work...

• NACE: Output Control

Chosen V3 (Billing) application

Output type RD00 (Invoice), updated Storage system tab with the following values:

storage mode = 3 print and archive

document type = SDOINVOICE

• OAC0 (Content Repository)

Created a repository in Documentum with Document Area = ARCHIVELINK and connection test passed successfully

• OAC2 (Document types)

SDOINVOICE associated to document class PDF

• OAC3 (Links)

Created link between Object type VBRK (Customer Individual Billing Document) and Document type SDOINVOICE (Billing document) in the content repository created in Documentum

Then, in transaction VF02 (Change Billing Document), I go to Header --> Output, and I enter the RD00 message type.

• In Communication method, I choose the local spool, and select Print immediately.

• In Further Data, as Dispath Time, I choose Send immediately (when saving the application) option.

After saving the Billing Document, the Processing Log shows the following error:

Maintain archiving parameter(s) for output type RD00 (appl. V3): Message no. VN096

Is any other customizing needed?

Do I have to create any special logical destination to be able to storage the documents properly? If so, how do I have to create it? (transaction, parameters, etc.)

Thanks a lot in advance.

Hi Maria,

Please see if SAP note 639149 is of help.

Hi Naveen, and thanks for your help.

It seems that the creation of a new output logical device is necessary to solve my problem.

Any help about this creation or transaction SPAD?

Thanks a lot.

Hi Maria,

Check whether already a output device ARCH exists in SPAD and check whether you have maintained ARCH as output device for the content repository in OAC0.

If ARCH is not already existing in SPAD, try the following:

1. Call transaction code SPAD.

2. Click on Output Devices-> Display.

3. Click on Change.

4. Click on Create and make the following entries:

Output Device - ARCH

Short Name - ARCH

Device Type - ARCHLINK: SAP Archive Link Archiver

Spool Server - Press F4 to get a list of spool server. Choose one of

them as per requirement

Device Class - Archiving Program

Change to tab Access Method

HostSpool Access Method - I: Archiving Device

Note: Please note down the changes you make, so that you can revert back in case it doesnt work

Hope this helps,

Hi Naveen, thanks a lot for your help!!

I think I'm on the way... but there is something I still don't know how to do it .. (or if I have done it yet!!)... Once I've created the output device ARCH in SPAD, how do I maintain ARCH as output device for the content repository in OAC0?

Maybe due to this (or may be not..), now when I try to print and archive the invoices, I receive a message in my SAP Business Workplace with the error TD327 (No printer fonts maintained for &).

I've found SAP note 391852 about it, but the truth is that I have no idea about printer fonts..

Thanks!!

Hi Maria,

In OAC0, select and display the content repository you are working on. In the content repository screen, click on the button on the top which says 'Full Administration'. Here you can maintain the Output Device (which is after the basic and archive path).

By the way, i found this thread which is similar to the problem you are facing. Maybe you could contact the creator of this thread as he seems to have found the solution:

Hope this helps,

Now I finally can print and archive SD invoices at the same time!

You've been very quick and helpful in your answers, thank you very much!

Hi All,

i done all the above steps, but still not able to store the document in DMS. How it will store the document in DMS? because we are not sending any meta data along with output.

Thanks!
