Attachment functionality in new custom tab

[Former Member]

Hi All,

We want to add new custom tab on Rfx screen where user can attach multiple documents.

We have achieved this by creating a new webdynpro component by copying existing notes and attachment tab details. so when we are uploading any document in custom tab, it is getting visible in other tabs also ,like in notes and attachment tab.

Can we restrict this?

Our requirement is, when user will upload the document in custom tab, it should be visible in for that tab only. it should not be visible in notes and attachment tab.

Kindly help.

Thanks and Regards,

Anannya

Hi Anannya,

First I recommend you to check the following wiki page about SRM attachments: https://wiki.scn.sap.com/wiki/x/uYZ9Fw

The main tables, that store SRM attachment meta information are BBP_PHIO, BBP_PDATT and BBP_PHF.

BBPCONT table is to store the attachment contents permanently and BBP_TRANSXSTRING is to store the attachment content temporary.

When you click on notes and attachments tab the attachments will be read from these tables, so in case you create a new custom tab and save the data totally the same way as it is saved on the standard notes and attachments tab it will be visible on both tabs. Possible options are to save the attachments from the new tab to custom tables from where the standard code does not read the data on notes and attachments tab or create an indicator that the attachment is uploaded from the custom tab and create an enhancement in standard code to handle the indicator.

I hope it will help you to achieve your requirement.

Best regards,

Daniel
