RMLink resides in the SAP Business Suite ABAP Stack. It communicates via web
services with the Open Text Enterprise Library Services. The web services run on
Livelink with the same user as the one using RMLink. Therefore synchronization
between SAP and Livelink users via LDAP is required.
Note: RMLink 9.7.1 does not support an upgrade from any of the following
previous versions:
• Livelink ECM - Records Management for SAP Solutions 9.6.0
• Open Text Extended ECM for SAP Solutions 9.6.1
• Open Text - RMLink for SAP Solutions 9.7.0
Important
Note that there may be a more recent version of this installation guide in the
Open Text Knowledge Center. Look there for the most up-to-date version.

Important
The logical archive (OAC0 transaction) must use the Enterprise Library
Services host/port and not the Archive and Storage Services host/port.
Restrict access to the Archive and Storage Services host/port exclusively
to the Enterprise Library Services via a firewall configuration.
Important
Prior to installation, make sure that you have read the information in Open
Text Enterprise Library Services - Installation and Upgrade Guide (EL-IGD) and
Open Text Enterprise Library Services - Configuration and Scenario Guide (EL-
GGD) for the version 10.1.0.
To install package:
1. Copy the respective SAPCAR file (*.SAR) from the product CD to the target SAP
application server in the /usr/sap/trans folder (i.e. the parent folder of the
DIR_EPS_ROOT folder).
SAP Re- File Source path Target path
lease
SAP ERP 6.0 OTEXRL_INST_0971_70 INST_BAS_700\DATA\ /usr/sap/trans
0.SAR
SAP R/3 En- OTEXRL_INST_0971_62 INST_BAS_620\DATA\ /usr/sap/trans
terprise 4.70 0.SAR
The resulting PAT file will be extracted to the EPS/in folder relative to the path
of the SAPCAR file.
3. Carry out import of package as described in the respective SAP documentation.
4. After import has been finished, continue with the activation of the BC sets.
For every client, the Business Customizing Set (BC set) must be activated after
installation.
To activate BC set:
1. Execute the SCPR20 transaction.
The Business Customizing Set screen appears
2. Activate the /OTEXRL/RM_LINK_01 BC set.
Note: For more details, see the SAP documentation.
Caution
If you import an upgrade into an SAP system with RMLink and the data of
the respective upgrade packages is not read (upgrade phase IS_SELECT), the
Open Text RMLink for SAP Solutions add-on (OTEXRL) will no longer work
after the upgrade procedure. Since the status of the system is then
inconsistent, Open Text can no longer accept any liability.
The resulting PAT file will be extracted to the EPS/in folder relative to the path
of the SAPCAR file.
3. Follow the standard SAP system upgrade instructions. During upgrade phase
IS_SELECT, select the upgrade type for the installed add-ons Upgrade with

To link the receiver module to the ASSIGNED event of the Object Type:
Note: The following procedure must be repeated for every BOR Object Type
were ArchiveLink entries should be declared automatically.
1. Click the Maintain Receiver Module Events entry in the IMG.
Destination of Receiver
NONE
Note: For automatic declaration, the check box Automatic in the assignment of
declaration ID to object and document type must also be selected. For details,
see Section 3 "Assigning a declaration ID to object and document type" in Open
Text RMLink for SAP Solutions 9.7.1 - Administration Guide (RMSAP-AGD).
ArchiveLink documents linked to the finance business object BKPF are declared as
records. Some metadata like the reference number are stored at the record item type
during declaration. At a later stage, the reference number changes; this should
automatically update the reference number in the item type.
Depending on the SAP version used, the following screens might look different on
your system.
Object Category
BOR Object Type
Object Type
Select the type that you want to update.
Event
Changed
Receiver Type
Arbitrary
Receiver Call
Function module
Receiver Function Module
Value may be either
/OTX/RM_UPD_RECORD_VIA_EVENT for a complete update (i.e. title, location,
metadata, classification, and security clearance) or
/OTX/RM_UPDMD_RECORD_VIA_EVENT for an update of the metadata only
Destination of Receiver
Set this field to NONE for SAP R/3 Enterprise 4.70, leave this field empty for
SAP ERP 6.0.
Leave all other settings as in the example above.
Note: In some application areas, business events can be activated using SAP
Change Documents.
Caution
RMLink supports print lists only in SAP ERP 6.0.
Note: For automatic declaration of printlists, the check box Automatic in the
assignment of declaration ID to object and document type must also be
selected. For details, see Section 3 "Assigning a declaration ID to object and
document type" in Open Text RMLink for SAP Solutions 9.7.1 - Administration
Guide (RMSAP-AGD).
2. Create a new Enterprise Library Services item type for each property provider
that should be used.
Specify the following parameters:
Property Provider
Choose one of the business property providers available in the value list.
Enterprise Library ID
Choose one of the configured IDs.
New Enterprise Lib. Item Type
Enter a name that features at least one dot to define a namespace.
New Item Type Description
Enter a description that states the purpose of the type.
3. Click the button
A success message is displayed.
Note: If an error message “Cannot form valid challenge” is displayed,
check the existence of an authentication driver (PSE file) using the Open
Text Administration client.
Caution
Do not delete the original category file under Open the Enterprise
Library Types Volumes.
Note: Note the location of the copied category file. You will need this
information to configure new declarations with the SPRO transaction in SAP.
The option Never expire must be set for the Livelink security parameter in the
section Cookie Authentication Information.
Note: RMLink generates in the SSO mode a 2-hour persistent CAP cookie.
Make sure that your Web browser settings allow cookies.
If either SSO cannot be achieved in your server and desktop environment or SSO is
turned off in the LES configuration (see “Maintaining Enterprise Library server
settings” on page 47), the RMLink functionality is restricted as follows:
• The interactive declare dialog (see Section 3 "Assigning a declaration ID to object
and document type" in Open Text RMLink for SAP Solutions 9.7.1 - Administration
Guide (RMSAP-AGD)) will not allow to select RSI, categories and cross
references.
• The declaration customizing will not support value help for selecting categories
and root folder. The user will have to enter these values manually.
However, if the LES configuration does turn off SSO, these restrictions do not apply.
Instead, each time RMLink requests a Livelink popup dialog, an intermediate
popup caller dialog appears. Both the popup caller dialog and the target Livelink
dialog may show a log-on screen.
For the caller dialog, the logon screen appears only once, as long as a SAPGUI
session or the SAP Logon application is open. For the Livelink popup dialog, a
logon is always necessary unless an instance of the Web browser has been open
since the latest logon.
Tip: In order to avoid logging in every time a Livelink dialog pops up under
Windows, keep an instance of Microsoft Internet Explorer open.
4. Select the Set CAP ID to Livelink user mapping entry in the CAP Connector
Administration section.
5. Check that the CAP ID to Livelink user mapping is set to the default option
Livelink user name as seen below.
Figure 7-4 and Figure 7-5 illustrate the use of the RSLDAPSYNC_USER transaction to
export users. It is important to select the desired action to be taken in case some
users exist in both SAP and in the external user directory. Since this transaction can
trigger an export, an import, or a combination of both, it is also important to
properly select the desired actions.
Figure 7-7 shows some SAP users exported in the Sun ONE Directory Server.
