Retrieving a Certificate from the Storage System (SAP Library

Retrieving a Certificate from the Storage System

Use

The customer can use this function to retrieve certificates for delivery (located in the vendor storage system) over the Internet.

Note

When retrieving certificates from the storage system, it is guaranteed that the system always refers to the same certificate as long as no output is issued. Even when data is changed in the system.

For customers with this requirement, the following procedure is recommended:

Printing the certificate directly in the storage system (storage mode 2 or 3)
Retrieval of the certificate by the customer only via the storage system

Prerequisites

To use this function, the following requirements must be met:

The SAPArchiveLink component is active, and in the sender system the certificate output was transferred to the storage system.
(The output has been processed successfully with storage mode "3" when the certificate was printed additionally, or with storage mode "2" when it was only stored in the storage system).

In Customizing for Quality certificates, the output type of the output to be processed is entered as "certificate output" for the transmission medium (print or fax), and the indicator Storage system is set.
