2. Hello SAP DMS aspirants. Unlike other materials which initially present you
all theory, definitions, pictures and then finally at the end of the training gives
you examples and very late giving you the configurations required, I had
prepared this material directly jumping into the SAP transactions, Making
you blank after you see the screens and then explain what is what and how to
configure it, why to configure it etc.
The intentions of bringing all the transactions and configurations at the
beginning only is that you understand logically start thinking as a DMS
consultant from the day you start the page one instead of reading like a
student… I dono you guys like this, But I like to teach you in way which I feel
will penetrate deeper than the conventional methods.
As per configurations are considered, I had given STEP BY STEP
instructions with picture to guide you all along and am sure you will like it.
After completing this Training, you will be expertise in configuring numbering
logic, Document Type, Status Networks, Object Linking and also testing the
Status Management and Object Linking. I feel if this material can be worked
and completed within 2-3 hours at maximum so that you don’t need to spend
too much of your quality time also reading definitions etc .
Do give your feedback on this once you have gone through and help me
with your feedbacks which I will take care in my second training material
which I am intending to cover large topics of DMS.
Thanks,
Aidtya

3. Getting into DMS….
The first step before deep dive into SAP DMS, Remember the three building blocks of
DMS.
Okie lets dive into SAP. What you see with Tcode: CV01n is shown below.
WHAT NEXT??

4. You can see four things in the above picture, Document, Document Type, Document
Part and Document Version. These together are called DOCUMENT KEY. The below
pictures gives it overall idea of the Document Key.
Don’t break your head too much into Document part and document version right now.
We will initially concentrate on Document and Document Type to build the first bricks
of the DMS foundation.
Document (DIR)
Document, also called Document Info Record or simply DIR number can be assigned in
mainly 3 ways:
Internal numbering: System automatically assigns the number; you don’t need to
assign any number in this case.
External Numbering: You can enter your number and this will be taken as the number
of the document
Mixed Numbering: You can enter partially your number and system automatically
takes care of the rest number.
Now, when you say internal number, as I said earlier, system automatically assigns the
number but how the number will be assigned? What controls this? Can you define the
range for an internal number? If yes how can I make the system select only that
range?

5. Yes, now you are entering next 2 bricks of the DMS foundation which are
NUMBER RANGE and its Configuration &
Document Type and Its Configuration.
Number Range and its configuration:
How to find what is the number range available in your system?
Click as per below path in SPRO screen
And click Button
You can see the below screen
The above screen can also be directly got if you type Transaction Code: OD00
This may reduce headache of traversing in the SPRO screen searching for
number range and I always like to use these kinds of shortcuts 

6. Clicking on gives you the list of all the available numbering
range in your system. For example, in my SAP system, I have these numbers.
