Use visual composer for maintenance transaction of R/3

Hi:
Can I use the visual composer as a tool to connect to maintenance transaction of R/3.
Can I use it to build a sales order or a porches order in the R/3.

Does anyone know if you can use an IDOC interface with VC? Also, does anyone have suggestions for a BAPI for creating and displaying notifications?
Any help is appreciated.

What is advantage of using Visual Composer In SAP

Hi friends,
please tell me what is advantage of using visual composer in SAP.
and please give me basic notes to understand Visual Composer.
I Don't have any idea about this topic.
please help me.
Thanks & Regards,
Yogesh

Hi Yogesh,
SAP Visual Composer is a browser based, graphical modeling tool that - by reusing existing data services like RFCs, web services, queries, query-views, tables - allows creating business applications with both transactional and analytical services seamlessly integrated. In addition it gives modelers the choice to select the UI technology and build user interfaces.

How to work with BI using Visual Composer....?

Hi
I want to work with BI report and BEx analyzer etc using Visual Composer.
I am using Visual Composer 7.1. I have configured BI system connection using the following link
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwce10/helpdata/en/7e/6dbcea3700452195e3bddaa47c5906/frameset.htm.
In the above document i didnt understand the following para....
Creating BI Users in the Portal
Ensure that the BI back-end users also exist in the J2EE Engine. You can use the BI back end as the user store for the J2EE Engine or you can create the users manually. If you create the users manually, you should ensure that they have the same names as in the BI back-end; this avoids the need to configure user assignment.
How to check BI back end user also exist in J2EE engine ?
How to use BI kit in Visual composer. From where can i download BI kit for Visual Composer.
What is the difference between developing application in VC using the above method and using BI kit.
Please help me....

Sowmya....

Hi,
Without the BI kit you cannot do a lot of things in VC 7.1.
This kit is not available with 7.1.
The part that you did not understand meant that if you opening VC using a certain id in portal for eg "user" then the same id should be present in your backend system in this case BW system.
Without this it wont be able to connect to the system.
Hope this helps

Passing output of one iView as input to another iView using Visual Composer

Hi
I need urgent help. Is it possible to pass data from one iView to another using the Visual Composer tool. If it is how? Does anyone have an example or know where I can find one.
Here is my example:
I have created one Page with two iViews on the page. In the first iView i have a Bapi that accepts an ID number of a business partner as input and returns details like Name, Surname , title etc as well as the SAP Business Partner Number. The second Iview uses a Bapi that returns the Address details of the business partner.My problem is that I need to use the Business Partner Number from the first iView as the input into the second iView. Is this possible using Visual Composer? There will be a series of additional all bringing back different details of the same Business Partner and will need to use the same Business Partner Number.
Please advise me if this is possible using VC or if not suggest an alternative way of doing it.
Thanks in advance for the help.
Regards
Yusuf Gangat

Yes you can do this.
You can use ports (Signals) for this.
In order to explaing this, I will call the 1st iView - the source iView and the 2nd one - the target iView.
1. In the source iView create an "Out Port" from the form or table where you have the details you want passed. Name it anyway you want (in the Properties task pane).
2. In the target iView create an "Input Port" and connect it to the input of the BAPI you want run.
3. Make sure that both ports have exactly the same name (it's case sensitive). and the same fields.
4. Deploy the 2 iViews to the portal, put them in the same page.
Data should be transferred now between the iViews.

Problems using Visual Composer with Web Dynpro runtime

I am currently trying to build a Visual Composer iView and we need to use the Web Dynpro runtime rather than Flash because it needs to work with a screen reader for users with sight problems. Which is a pity because Flash works fine. But when I use Web Dynpro runtime I'm getting the following problems:
a) When I define fields and pushbuttons in forms where Align Contents is set to Absolute, they do not appear at runtime in the positions in which I've placed them - all form elements are aligned vertically. The only other options are to align all fields vertically or align all fields horizontally. This lack of flexibility makes it rather difficult to create a good screen design; the only option seems to be to create a separate form for each set of differently aligned fields, which leads on to the next problem. .
b) When I define more than one form on a page, again at runtime the forms do not always appear in the positions in which I've placed them; the compiler seems to calculate how much space it needs to display the screen elements and then re-sizes and re-positions the forms accordingly, ignoring what I've told it to do.
c) Toolbar pushbuttons do not appear on forms (they do appear on tables). Irritating, but at least I can still create pushbuttons on the form itself.
There are other issues, but the main problems is that it appears that when I use VC with Web Dynpro I cannot trust the editor layout at all and the only way I can build something that looks decent is to fiddle about with field / form sizes and positions, checking every change on the output, until hopefully I get it looking ok. Having to do this will dramatically increase the time taken to develop VC applications. Has anyone else experienced these problems with VC and Web Dynpro? Has anyone managed to overcome them?

Thanks, but neither of these describes the problems I've been having. And they are misleading since they say that you can use VC with Web Dynpro only with Web Services ie not directly with BAPIs / RFCs, but using it with BAPIs / RFCs is one of the few things that works well in our system.
The most recent problem I've found is that if you make a form or table read-only it will stay read-only in Flash but the fields are editable in Web Dynpro. The individual field disable option does work for Web Dynpro, but it turns the fields from black to a vey pale and almost invisible grey (this doesn't happen in Flash). And you can't seem to change this.
It does seem to be a bit pathetic that input fields can't be made read only. I've tried expression boxes, which are read-only anyway, but they appear in as pale a grey as the disabled input fields. And although plain text fields can be added to tables, they are pretty useless since they can only hold a single value and so all the lines will contain the same value.
I guess I should resign myself to the fact that I am never going to be able to produce a decent screen using VC and Web Dynprp.

Creating TabStrip control using visual composer

Hi,
I am NW04 version for Visual Composer. I want to create a TabStrip control on which I want to show two table from a RFC. Is there any facility available to create this like NW2004s. I found from some posts that NW04 verson doesn't have capabilities to create listbox. Or is there any patches available and after applying we will get the functionality??? Or can I install VC for NW2004s and it will be compatible with EP 6.0??
Please suggest.
Thanks,
SA.

Use layers and set the correpsonding property. Tabstrip is one of the options in 2004.

Displaying km documents using Visual Composer

Hi
Can visual composer display components of km.
I am looking into using vc to show different
ways to display ppt slides or word documents
Thanks
Arun

Hi Arun,
In order to display a ppt or a word document you can use the HTML View. The input parameter of the HTML View is a url, you should just enter the url of your ppt or word.
We don't support km components.

Can i use java only for database transaction with vb as a front end

Hello All.
I am sorry,i don't know whether this location is the correct location to post my question or not
I have developed one application using complete vb only. That is completly desktop appliation and not suitable for centralized database. Is there any facility to keep my front end as same (vb application) and for the database transaction can i use jdbc? Is there any possibility to do that like View is vb based application and the database connectivity is only jdbc
If my thought is wrongplease execuse me.
thanks in advance

Sounds like a really bad choice even if it was possible.

When to use Visual Composer

Hello,
    I am little bit confusing, as said in the Netweaver developers guide, VC is used in less complex applications and Web DynPro in more complex apps.
     So, How one can decide which is less complex and which is not??. How to measure the complexity and in which terms??
     How to decide between webdynpro and VC??. How far it is successful, VC??.
Thank you very much for the help.
Regards,
Raj.

Hi Raj,
after having a short exposure to both WD and VC, I think VC can be used for fairly simple applications which you can develop by using tables and forms as the UI elements. The customisation possibilities of VC are thus quite limited.
The main difference between WD and VC is the intended audience of them. VC is aimed at the non-programmers or analysts who just want to quickly model a UI for a BAPI / several BAPI's jointly, for example. With WD you have many more doors open. You can make very customised applications and in general have more control on what you are doing since you're working on the code level.
I think you could find an analogy for the two technologies from the early days of html page development. There were some wysiwyg (what-you-see-is-what-you-get) tools which didn't require you to do any coding but weren't very flexible. Whereas on the other hand, the more serious web developers did their pages by coding straigt html and javascripts on their pages.
So if you have a simple application e.g. for creating sales orders and calling a single bapi, I'd go with VC if there's no customisation. But if you have a bigger sales order tracking tool with different options, I'd go with WD instead.
Bear in mind also that with WD you can create standalone applications on the WAS without needing a portal. So if you are creating apps with VC, they have to be deployed on a portal.

Reporting in SAP CE using Visual composer webui

Hi ,
I am trying to create some reports using the default data sources.
Kindly let me know if there is any default reports that are available
regards,
rajesh

Hi Deep,
Yes, you can connect to BI Datasources in NWDS. In order to that go to:
Windows->Preferencies->Destination Configurations->R/3 Configuration and press Add button.
Open the Single Server tab, fill the fields and press OK button.
Afterwards you should restart the NWDS.
