Service desk integration with 3rd party tool

Hi all,
I've problems understanding the setup of connecting a 3rd party service desk tool with solman itsm.
So far it's clear that I need to activate and configure the service provider and consumer in soamanager.
The webservice then will be called by the 3rd party tool with corresponding data.
However, according to spro I need to define a value mapping for incoming/outgoing calls.
I do not understand this mapping... the WSDL of webservice ICT_SERVICE_DESK_API contains lots of fields, but in spro -> value mapping I can only define the following fields (which are hard coded in type pool AIICT):
SAPCategory
SAPComponent
SAPDatabase
SAPFrontend
SAPIncidentID
SAPIncidentStatus
SAPInstNo
SAPOperatingSystem
SAPSoftwareComponent
SAPSoftwareComponentPatch
SAPSoftwareComponentRelease
SAPSubject
SAPSystemClient
SAPSystemID
SAPSystemType
SAPUserStatus
What about attachments, priority etc.?
Will the interface parameters mapped to these ones?
For what purpose do I need to maintain the value mapping?
Can you give me a hint?

OLAP Services and Infobus -- can they work to interface with 3rd party tools?

I would like to link 9i OLAP data to 3rd party tools like Formula One or other Java Report Writers. Can this be done using infobus or other technologies? Does 9i OLAP services act as an infobus data provider?
Has anyone done this? If so can an example be provided?
Thanks

Thanks InfoBus is a Java standard for dynamic data interchange. The Oracle9i OLAP API does not act as an InfoBusDataProvider. It's compatible but not supported. Also, InfoBus has been determined not well suited for multidimensionality.
BI Beans actually has some code in its Query object to act as an InfoBusDataProvider, but it is hidden due to inadequate testing and review, plus there is a perception that there is a lack of strong interest in this feature.
So the short answer is that OLAP API and BI Beans do not provide InfoBus support. If there is a public outcry for InfoBus support, Oracle OLAP would consider it as a feature for a future release.
As for another technology to link Oracle9i OLAP data to 3rd party tools like Formula One or other Java Report Writers, I'll look into it and report back.

ChaRM integration with third party tool

Hello,
I have some talks withn customers regarding a scenario where Change Requests comes from a third party tool like HP Demand and Portfolio Management. A possible scenario is when there is a request for change which goes for a complex review and process approval before going directly into the ChaRM creation, without going into a service desk ticket.
I imagine a kind of web service similar to that of the Service Desk but in this case to work with the SDCR or SDHF tickets, so that external systems can interchange data with those Charm tickets. Does anybody face such type of integration?? What other alternative path you follow for this requests which do not come form a incident/problem workflow?
I appreciate your comments.
Regards
Esteban

SAP Integration with Third party tools (WMS)

Hi Guys
We are using SAP - WMS , ASRS(Automatic Storage and Retival system) in warehouse for putaway and pick operation. We want to automate this process and came to know that this can be done using RFC .can anyone share his learing & idea about the architecture and way of working also during installation what are the point we need to take care.

COMMIT WORK is necessary after most BAPIs. What you describe is usually a result of calling BAPI without COMMIT WORK. The message tells you that document was created, but when you look into database, the document is not there.
I'm not sure how to resolve this in case of the 3rd party software though. Maybe instead of just using a plain BAPI you will need to write a custom function module, which will capp BAPI and do COMMIT.
Hope this helps.

Integration of ChaRM with third party tools

Hi all,
We are in the process of building the solution for Change Request Management implementation integrated with third party tool.
As the normal process for ChaRM is to work with the Service Desk functionality (to raise a ticket, then support message, change request, change document etc...), but what we need is create the change request, and change document directly with ChaRM without using the Service Desk functionality.
Did anybody come across this situation?
Please share your experience.
Thanks in advance.
Balaji

Hi Balaji,
there is no problem, as I understand, you want to use ChaRM without Service Desk. OK, than you create directly a Change Request in CRMD_ORDER, the transaction type you have to select is SDCR (standard transaction type), you have to approve it and then you can create a change document, it is not necessary that you start with a Service Desk ticket like SLFN.
You need configured TMS a SolMan Project with a Maintenance Cycle, thats it (but this is enough , don't forget the customizing).
I hope I understood you correct

EP integration with third party BI tools

Hi,
I was looking for information and pointers on EP integration with third party BI tools like Business Objects etc. Would be grateful.
Thanks,
Madhu

Thanks. We have a full fledged Business Objects reporting environment. My question is: As a beginner in the EP space, I would like to understand how to treat the Business Objects environment as one of the content providers for the Enterprise Portal? Are there any documents or manuals that talk about the integration of EP with Business Objects? I know the question is too broad, but any pointers would be useful.

HRMS Integration with third party Project Management Tool

Hi All,
We have plans of procurring a third party Project Management Tool which needs to be integrated to existing Oracle Financials. Project Management Tool needs employee information for its functioning.
a)Is there any API available for this purpose which exposes HR data to any third party tool?
b)Can anyone suggest what should be the approach for such integration?
Thanks in advance

SA

What 3rd party tool are you going to be using? You might get lucky and it might be something that Oracle has bought recently. Does this post mean you are using Oracle Projects? If so, you may want to post this question in that forum as well. At least you would limit the audience to projects oriented customers, so might get some better replies there than you will here. Food for thought.

Integration with with 3rd Party Document management System

Hi
We are implementing Invoice Management in SAP, using the Opentext VIM ECC Addon.
The Customer has a 3rd Party Document Management System called DocHarbour which is NOT Archivelink enabled.
The process flow is that Invoices will be scanned and available in a share drive somewhere.
Using SAP and Invoice Management Work, we would like to attached these documents to the relevant SAP Documents, and then post them to the 3rd Party Doc Management System , but the Images must be retreival in SAP at any time .
Everything tells me the 3rd party Doc Management System needs to be ArchiveLink enabled for this work.
Is anyone able to shed any light on this issue , provide possible solutions , workarounds or infor ?
Any help or information appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Dear Minesh
My suggestion would be use SAP Content server provided by SAP as is easily available and easy to setup.
Doing Integration with third party involves much time and efforts.

Which 3rd party tools can support Open Hub Destination?

Hi BI experts,
In the Open Hub Destination Type, I have a choice between Database Table, File or Third Party Tool. From what I read from SAP documentation, the Third Party Tool which is supported is Ascential. Apart from Ascential, what are other 3rd party Tools can Open Hub Destination link up to ?
Can Microsoft BI be linked up?
Please let me know.
Thanks,
Anthony

Hi Anthony,
Yes, SSIS can be used with Open hub.

Open Hub 3rd party tool - API not returning data table

I am implementing a 3rd party tool to get data from BI using the Open Hub Service.
I have my server running and the API functions are working somewhat, but I have two problems.
When I get notified by BI (RSB_API_OHS_3RDPARTY_NOTIFY), the REQUESTID field is always 0. Why? This should be the request id of the Data Transfer Process; I can see this id in BI.
The second problem is when I make the call to read the data (I hard code the request ID), everything comes back fine, except the table is empty. I know it's not empty because the DTP said it create a table with many rows and I can see them in BI. Why is the table empty?
Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
Tim
PS: I'm using SAP JCo to implmenet the server and the API. And I'm using BI 7.0.

I am not sure I should continue: I am not an expert with the use of these API - in fact I have never used them:-)
This is in case the discussion would help you:
My understanding is that the 'green' status is the status of the 3rd party tool. Only when the 3rd party sets a 'green' status will extraction proceed. The third-party can choose to stop extraction by setting a 'red' status.
See the link below:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/43/8dea54c4e273e2e10000000a1553f6/content.htm
Guess all these APIs are geared for automatic processing - another link:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/59/90070982d5524b931ae16d613ac04a/content.htm
RSB_API_OHS_3RDPARTY_NOTIFY: This function module has no source code - the code needs to be implemented in the 3rd party tool to do whatever is required with the parameters provided. The import parameters required have to be supplied to it.
That's it, I am retiring:-)

TNS-12154...3rd Party tools won't connect to 9.2iEE

Platform:
Pentium 4 2.4GHz
Windows 2000 (SP2)
Oracle 9iEE 9.2
OWB 9.2
Quest Software Data Dictionary for Oracle
Other 3rd party tools accessing Oracle RDBMS
We have installed Oracle 9iEE, and OWB 9.2. OWB Client and Server components have been installed into their own 'oracle_home' directories. All software is installed on the one machine.
We have also installed Quest Software Data Dictionary for Oracle on the machine.
We have found 2 TNSNAMES.ORA files on the machine....one for the database itself, and the other in the OWB Client 'Oracle home'
The OWB client connects with the database ok, but the Quest software and other 3rd party tools come back with the error of TNS-12154. 3rd party tools were ok while we had 9iPE installed. But have stopped connecting with the oracle database since the installation of 9iEE and OWB, and come up with the TNS-12154 error each time we try.
We have 3 'Home' entries in the Registry under HKEY_LOCALMACHINE>SOFTWARE>ORACLE. One for 9iEE, and 2 others each for the OWB Server & Client.
Below are the TNSNAMES.ORA, SQLNET.ORA, and LISTENER.ORA contents for the 9iEE installation:

THE NEW INSTANCE STATUS COME UP AS READY, UNLIKE THE PREVIOUS STATUS OF UNKNOWN!
My guess is the 2 TNSNAMES.ORA files on the machine, and the contents of the Registry 'Home' entries are causing the issues. But I'm not sure of what actions to take, and why initially the service instances come up as 'UKNOWN', and then the other 2 appear as 'READY'. ora92ee.mydomain has 2 instances of the service....baffling.
Is it to do with installing 9iEE on a single machine, rather than a Client/Server environment?
Any ideas upon how we can get our 3rd party tools to successfully connect to the Oracle database again will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

Interfacing to 3rd Party tools from BW

I realize Open Hub is the SAP solution to interfacing BW data to 3rd Party tools.
However does anyone see a problem in general with the approach of developing custom web services on the BW box that would be called by a third party tool and in turn return Master Data and ODS objects?
Wardell

Hi
You can also use direct SQL reads to the BA DB (for ODS only), Also ABAP code.
If you want to manipulate the data (transactional and Master data) you can use BAPI functionality.
In our company we used BAPI to manipulate SD data from a third party tool (Web based) but not on BW.

DB13 and 3rd party tool support?

Hi Experts,
I came across SAP note 1048382 which says that 3rd party backup tools can be called from DB13. Does anybody have experience with that? What tools provide support for this integration?
Is there a way for reporting backup status info into CCMS/db13 if a tool doesn't support that?
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards,
Tristan

Hi,
Any 3rd party tool which uses backint utility to trigger backups, logs will be available in db14. You can also schedule backup jobs with such tools using db13 transaction code.
Hope this is useful.

Are there any 3rd party tools which provide Microsoft Azure IaaS diagnostics?

Are there any 3rd party tools currently, which can be used for giving detailed diagnostics Information about the IaaS environment (like on VM's, Virtual Network etc.) in a detailed report format periodically? Please note that I am looking for any such tools
around IaaS environment diagnostics here, and not about Application diagnostics.

Hi Bahree,
Microsoft does not suggest a specific third-party product. However, we do use them, and see lots of other customers use them.
Paraleap: Monitoring tool - http://www.paraleap.com/AzureWatch , You may browse to these site and few others to learn more, and chat with their folks directly on how they support Windows Azure.
I see that Microsoft has published a self-help diagnostic package for running Windows-based virtual machines (VMs) in Azure IaaS and this this diagnostic package does not require opening a Support Request with
Microsoft
This package helps to diagnose and resolve common issues on running Windows-based VMs in Azure IaaS
We may download the diagnostic package from Microsoft's Support Diagnostics Self-Help Portal:
https://home.diagnostics.support.microsoft.com/SelfHelp?knowledgebaseArticleFilter=2976864
