How to Convert documents in BDS to DMS in Content Repository?

[Former Member]

Hello Experts,

We are in the process on trying to figure out to convert efficiently files stored under content type BDS to DMS. Is there any clean methods, funtion modules or any other programs we should look into?

We are trying to convert Claim documents ZIA from BDS (saved on the content server) to save them in DMS (save them also on the content server).

Also, since the files are aready URL's sitting in the content server, is there any way to attach a link as 'a document'?

Hi,

You can use below DMS API:

CBIH_CM30_IAL_CREATE : API can be used for creating main objects or sub-objects like document attachments etc.

CBIH_CM30_IAL_UPDATE : Update content, however, this will not create any new content or sub-object use CREATE instead.

CBIH_CM30_IAL_SAVE_TO_DB: Need to call after above APIs.

Shankar
