How Can I Link Business Document Services (BDS) Documents in SAP Through Object Services?

In this Article

    In this article we showed you how to link Generic Object Service (GOS) documents in SAP over Object Services with a business object. The second way, linking documents to Object Services, is through what are called Business Document Services (BDS) documents. Today we’ll show you how that works.

    Linking Business Document Services (BDS) Documents in SAP Through Object Services

    In contrast to GOS objects, BDS documents are classified by document type. All quality certificates, for example, can be allocated to a certain document type. BDS documents are stores over the services in the object menu Create -> Create business document.
