  • Key Concepts: 
    Maintain Documents is a feature of the CA-DMS Document Management System (DMS) component of SAP. It allows users to store, manage, and access documents in a secure and organized manner. Documents can be stored in folders, and users can assign access rights to each folder. Documents can also be linked to other SAP objects, such as sales orders or customer records.
    
    How to use it: 
    To use the Maintain Documents feature, users must first create a folder structure for their documents. This can be done by creating folders and subfolders within the DMS component. Once the folder structure is created, users can upload documents into the folders. They can also assign access rights to each folder, allowing certain users to view or edit documents within that folder. Finally, documents can be linked to other SAP objects, such as sales orders or customer records.
    
    Tips & Tricks: 
    When creating a folder structure for documents, it is important to consider how the documents will be used and who will need access to them. This will help ensure that the folder structure is organized and efficient. Additionally, it is important to assign access rights carefully, as this will ensure that only authorized users have access to sensitive documents.
