Product Safety Automatic MSDS shipment

[Former Member]

Hi everybody,

I am doing a feasiblity study on implementing the product safety module for MSDS shipment. I would like some clarification on the implementation steps.

The scenario is: MSDS documents are created and stored outside SAP.

I am able to create the substance. a template and a variant.

Since the documents are created in PDF format outside SAP, I don't know If a WWI server should be installed in this case?

I am not able to generate a report. No data is found...Maybe a missing config??

What is a good a approach to link n material to n MSDS documents?

Thank You

Joni

Hello Joni,

In order to use EH&S Report Shipment you need to have a WWI server installed.

Even if you want to to send and print MSDS that have been created outside of SAP.

Furthermore you need to upload these MSDS into SAP EH&S for the whole process to work.

You can not generate documents within EH&S Product Safety without a WWI Server.

But why do you want to create documents if the MSDSs are created outside of SAP?

You can use TR CG36VEN to upload MSDSs.

Hope this helps

P.s.: There are two 'Cookbooks' available: one for Report Shipment and one for WWI servers. They have been posted in this form...

Mark,

So you are saying that to send an already created PDF stored in DMS through report shipping I should install WWI server....

Juan,

I will try your solution and let you know if it worked.

Thank you Mark and Juan

If you just want to email the PDFs and not have a cover sheet send along with it - it might work without WWI server - but I'm not a 100% sure...

If you don't have an email address for all of the clients - and you therefore need to print the MSDS and send them via mail you need a WWI server for sure.

Hello Jonida,

Look at this best practice [http://help.sap.com/bp_chem603/BBLibrary/HTML/939_EN_DE.htm|http://help.sap.com/bp_chem603/BBLibrary/HTML/939_EN_DE.htm]

You don't need to install WWI server.

The MSDS is linked to a susbtance, and this sustance to 0-n materials.
