Using SOFM Object for Adding GOS Attachments to Work item

Prerequisites: Basic Knowledge on Workflow and Generic Object Services

Summary: In this Scenario we are using Business Object for Inbound Delivery (BUS2015). We have created a Subtype of the Object to include a few Events and Methods.  The Requirement here is to fetch the GOS Attachments for Inbound Delivery in ECC and add the Attachment in the User Decision Step of workflow.

Process

• Create a method in the Business Object which will provide you the details of the Business Document Service: Document ID. Since there can be more than one attachment we create a internal  Table of type SWC_OBJECT.
• Create an output Parameter of type ATTLIST which refers to OBJECT “SOFM”

• Create a task which will transfer the Output ATTLIST to the workflow element

• Create a User Decision Task in the Workflow and create a Element T_ATTACHMENT of type SOFM

• Binding the “Get Attachment List” Task

• Binding from Workflow to User Decision Step
