Drawing attachment :

Now one can attach a document to a BOM in one of the following three ways… 1) Attach document as an item in the item overview, 2) Attach document to an item and  3) Attach document to the header material.

1) Attaching document as an item in the item overview: …go to the `General Item Overview' screen …select the tab page `Document' …enter item category `D' …dropdown and select the document you want to attach  …the system automatically selects the respective document type, document part, document version and document description …the system also enters component quantity `1' and component unit of measure as `PC' by default.

2) Attaching document to an item: …go to the `General Item Overview' screen …select the particular item by F2  …the item all data screen appears  …go to tab page `document assignment' …dropdown and select the `document type' you want to attach …dropdown and select the document you want to attach  …the system automatically selects the respective document part, document version and document description

3) Attach document to the header material: …go to header overview screen  …go to tab page `document assignment' …dropdown and select the `document type' you want to attach  …the system automatically selects the respective, document part, document version and document description

Pre-requisites… …create document by transaction CV01N   …Customizing settings…in document management customizing determines which objects can be assigned to documents per object type. …go to IMG -> cross-application components -> document management -> control data -> define documents type …select the document type for example `DRW' …select the sub dialog `define object links' …select new entries and enter following objects… …'STPO_DOC' and screen `257'(linking document to BOM header) …'STKO_DOC' and screen `258'(linking document to BOM item) …now documents can be linked to BOM header as well as BOM item.

You will get it in BOM and in production order also.

I would be very interested in how to do this. I don't think it is difficult, but the real question is: Do the attached files get automatically transferred with the PO that is sent?

You can use the transaction MM02-Change (or MM03-Display) for attach a PDF file to a Material as follows.

MM02>System>Service for object>Create>Create external document (URL)>

The popup manu "Create link to web page" will be appeared . Please fill in the requirement - Title : (File name) - Address : (Location of file PDF (or etc) to be attached. (U:\SAP Attachment\Drawing\DWG 8541502419.pdf) And then click "Execute or Enter" and "SAVE"

*You have to specify the part of the file name any time. (.pdf, .jpg, .tif). If You are not specify the file attached cannot display.

How display a PDF file to a Material?

MM02>System>Service for object>click "attachment list">Doble click in Title lis. The attached file will be display.

Hello K4rl05_1978, send the PDF file attached to the materials with the PO. Regards.

0Carlos Escobar Replied Sep 7, 2009

What I did only was, attached the PDF file into MM02 for an "X" part number, following the SAP route to upload and Display the document. I don't know how to get the document into PO and send thru EDI. But you can try, fisrt upload your document and then create any PO and print it locally it will be content the same as the EDI.

Hi,

 

I would like to use material drawings in some spare parts.

How can I use this function?

Correct Answer by Pardeep Malik on Jun 12, 2009 6:13 PM

Hi,

 

Yes u can attached any drawing with material.

 

But for this you have to use Document management System. In Configuration of DMS, different Document Types are defined and you can attached with CV01N.

 

SAP DMS is for storing documents such as CAD drawings, Materials pictures etc. With the document management system, users will be able to view the documents with ease within their SAP Module Systems.

The document is well assigned to the object links in SAP such as Material Master; Purchase Order; WBS element; Sales Order etc. These links provide easy access to the desired and the supporting documents for business processes.

 

T Code u can Use CV01N, here define the document type and and after Document Data Tab, you can upload the the document  and in object link Tab, give the material number for which u want the attchment.

 

 

Hope Clear u !

 

 

Regards,

Create document infor records using CV01N and then check in teh drawing attachement and then in the object links attach the material master. This is essentially using the DMS functionality .

IF you dont have Document Management sytems activated , you can use the "Services For Object"  Button on the change material screen and Create an attachment there for the Drawing. Further you can enter the Drawing number in the "Drawing Number "field in Basic data 2 Tab for reporting.

Hi,

You can do it through Document Management System. Go to the trnsaction CV01n and create your document as one data file and attach that document in material master.

Hello,

In CV02N you can create a SAP-DocMgmtSystem document, and link it to your external document. Then in MM02 (Additional data - Document Data) you can link the DMS document to the material.
