Configuring for linking FileNet P8 documents to SAP

Documents that were stored in FileNet P8 without the use of Content Collector for SAP are not linked to SAP. You can link the documents that are in the P8 queue.

Figure 1 shows which parts of the Content Collector for SAP environment must be configured so that you can link the FileNet P8 documents by creating work items in the SAP workflow.
Figure 2 shows which parts of the Content Collector for SAP environment must be configured so that you can link the FileNet P8 documents by processing their bar codes.
In your basic instance configuration, you configured the following parts:
  • An HTTPS connection between the Collector Server instance and IBM® Content Navigator
  • At least one Java™ RFC dispatcher for the communication between the Collector Server instance and SAP if you want to link the archived document by creating work items in an SAP workflow
  • The logical FileNet P8 archives that contain the documents that are to be linked
Take these steps to complete the configuration of your environment for linking FileNet P8 documents:
  1. Enabling the Collector Server instance to link FileNet P8 documents
  2. Creating P8 queues and workflows
  3. Associating documents with a specific SAP workflow
