Configure SAP ArchiveLink

When a user views the attachment, SAP communicates with the document management system and retrieves the archived image.

Use the following configuration steps if your image archive system is connected to SAP using SAP ArchiveLink. Within SAP, a list of connected archives are viewable using the OAC0 SAP transaction. The archive system requires sufficient configuration on the SAP side so that it is possible to retrieve and display an image in the SAP front end.

You can configure a link to use an SAP ArchiveLink by following these steps.

  1. Open Kofax AP Agility with Administrative privileges.
  2. From the menu, select Settings > Invoice Processing.

    The Invoice Processing page is displayed.

  3. Click Capture Profiles.

    The Capture Profile Settings page is displayed.

  4. If necessary, select the Capture Profile from the list.

    A list of Capture Profile settings is displayed.

  5. Select SAP Configuration.

    The SAP Configuration settings are displayed.

  6. Select Create Link To External Archive.
  7. Set the Destination Archive setting to the destination archive ID.

    SAP archive IDs are codes that represent document management systems that are connected to SAP. These codes are typically two characters in length.

    The Invoice Processing settings are displayed.
