    The document describes uploading PDF attachments from a workflow to an employee's PA30 repository in SAP. It involves using function modules to 1) fetch attachments from a workflow item, 2) convert the attachment content to a compatible format, 3) create a document record to get a unique ID, and 4) upload the document to the employee's repository using that ID. The solution implements these steps in a custom class method used as the final step in an approval workflow to unlock a record and upload any attachments.

    Uploading Attachment(s) from Workflow to PA30 Employee repository.

    Business Requirement: Client needs to upload PDF(s) to Workflow at ‘user decision’ through ‘import’
    button and after final approval of workflow that document needs to upload at PA30 repository of a
    particular employee.

    Pre-Requisite: Content Server should be configured through a Tcode – OAC0. Here it is ‘Z1’.

    Function Modules:

    A) SAP_WAPI_GET_ATTACHMENTS – For fetching Attachments attached to Workitem.


    B) SO_DOCUMENT_READ_API1 – For fetching hexadecimal data of PDF through folderid/objid.
    C) HR_KR_XSTRING_TO_STRING – For converting xstring data to string data.
    D) ARCHIVOBJECT_CREATE_TABLE – For getting unique document ID of the document
    uploaded.
    E) ARCHIV_CONNECTION_INSERT – For uploading the document to repository using business
    object ( BUS1065 ) and employee number.
    F) ARCHIVOBJECT_DISPLAY – For display of document uploaded/attached to workitem by
    passing the archive document ID we got from FM ‘ ARCHIVOBJECT_CREATE_TABLE’.

    SOLUTION :

    There is a Workflow ‘WS90000019’ - upto 4 levels of approvals/rejections. After final approval the
    Worklfow will execute the final step i.e. ‘Unlock the entry of Infotype’ which will run at background.

    PS: This step unlocks the locked record of employee (Workflow executed through a BADI HRPAD00INFTY)
    as well as uploads the document(s) attached to USER DECISION of Workflow.

    1) Final Step ‘Unlock the entry of Infotype’ of WF where I have used ‘Z’ class method.
    2) Class : ‘ZCL_WF_INFOTYPE’ Method : ‘UPDATE_INFOTYPE’.

    3) All Parameters of method ‘UPDATE_INFOTYPE’.

    4) Passing the Work item Id to FM ‘SAP_WAPI_GET_ATTACHMENTS’ and fetch the attachments.


    5) We will get the attachment list in a table ‘Attachment’. Within this table there is a field ‘OBJECT’
    which contains the ‘DOCUMENT ID’ in format ‘ FOL43000000000004EXT44000000001555’.
    6) Later, we will pass this doc id to FM ‘SO_DOCUMENT_READ_API1’ and retrieve its
    ‘contents_hex’ ( hexadecimal data ) which will be in RAW255.

    7) With the updated Acrobat (PDF version), we need our data to be in char1024 rather than
    char/RAW255. So, we need to use a class ‘ cl_rmps_general_functions’.
    a. There are few methods which will use:
    i. convert_255_to_1022: use this to convert RAW255(contents_hex) to
    RAW1024.
    ii. convert_1022_raw_to_xstring: use this to convert RAW1024 to xstring.

    Now we will use the FM ‘ HR_KR_XSTRING_TO_STRING’.


    iii. convert_string_to_1022_char: use this to convert string data to
    character 1024.

    8) After getting ‘Re_tab’ from the above FM, we will make it compatible to
    it_tbl1024(‘archivobject’) of FM (‘ARCHIVOBJECT_CREATE_TABLE’) . 
       
     TABLES
     archivobject             = it_tbl1024 

    Below are the constants used within the Function modules:

    Here,
    EXPORTING PARAMETERS
    Archiv_id -> Content server ID on Tcode OCA0.
    Document_type -> Type of document i.e. PDF
    Length -> length of document attached.
    Compid -> document name/id
    IMPORTING PARAMETERS
    Archiv_doc_id -> Unique Document Id
    9) After getting the ‘archiv_doc_id’ we will attach this document to repository of the employee
    through FM ‘ARCHIV_CONNECTION_INSERT’. Object Id -> pernr.

    10) Also, We can use the FM ‘ARCHIVOBJECT_DISPLAY’ to display the document we have uploaded.
