Summary :
This SAP Note addresses various issues encountered with EH&S Windows Wordprocessor Integration (WWI) in the SAP environment. Common problems include failures to launch or edit WWI report templates in MS Word via CG42 and CG34 transactions due to configuration errors or incorrect customizations. This note outlines specific errors such as inaccessible or protected documents, runtime errors, and issues with WWI installation or configuration. Solutions include correcting document status customizations, configuring WWI_WORD_START RFC destination, and ensuring proper WWI file type registration and setup on client machines. Adjustments in MS Word's macro settings or re-installations of WWI are recommended to resolve interface and functionality problems. Additionally, potential conflicts with Adobe PDFMaker are mentioned, with a proposed workaround of renaming conflicting files.
