Access web dynpro abap application from external portal.

Hi
How can a application made in ABAP be accessed from SAP External Portal.
Like a java web dynpro application could be easily accessed by making a webDynpro Java ivew in portal.
Is their any method to access a ABAP application similarly.
Thanks.

Thomas
Here is our scenario
We want to expose an ABAP webdynpro application using ABAP Webdynpro iView in portal to the internet. Does this scenario use the ITS http server / port like URL iview behind the scenes.
Can you please share more info on the above scenario.
Thanks in advance

Web dynpro abap application on Portal does not work via internet access.

Dear All,
I have created a web dynpro abap application and deployed the same on Portal.
The issue I am facing is that the webdynpro application works fine when the end user logs into Portal from Local Network,
However when the Portal is accessed from outside the local N/W via Internet, Portal is working fine for other applications like ESS
but the web dynpro application dont work.
Is this some configuration issue on the portal / abap development or any workaround is possible.
Regards

Hi
Please try to use the [HTTP Watch 5.0 Basic |http://www.httpwatch.com/download/] tool to trace that WD Application link from the portal and you can easily find out the problem.

Integrating Web Dynpro ABAP application in portal

Dear experts,
I created a Web Dynpro ABAP application. I need to Integrate it in portal and have to capture portal login id to my application.
Kindly guide me how to integrate WDA in portal and how to capture Portal Logon id in my application.
Thanks,
Kind Regards,
Ram

Hello ,
It is asking for SAP system user id and password becasue there is no SSO established between portal and the web dynpro system.
Now, either you can establish SSO between portal and the backend system by SAP Logon TIcket or user mapping.
SSO stands for single sign on.
SSO using SAP Logon Tickets :-
by using this technique you will be able to login into the backend by using SAP logon ticket
issued by the portal system. For this you need to import the .der certificate form the system administration ->system config -->
key ticket store. there download verify.der and upload it in the trusted system list in the backend in the trasaction strust_import.
here is link for this method.
http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/EP/LogonTickets,CertificatesandBackend+Certificates.
SSO using user mapping. :-
For this method you need to map the user in the portal to one user in the backend system.
You can do so by going to user administration in the portal there find the user id with which the user will login.
then go to the user mapping for system access tab there select the system from the dropdown and give user id and password
for the same system save it.
Now when you will login it wont ask for the user id and password.
And after this you can get the portal user id also in your web dynpro application.

How can I call a java object from Web dynpro ABAP application?

I made Web dynpro ABAP application and posted it to SAP EP.
For certain business purpose, we need to call external 3rd party java object using 3rd party's java api in Web dynpro application.
Is there anybody who experienced this kind of java interface issue?
I know Web dynpro Java environment can fully support this kind of requirement. but regarding Web dynpro ABAP, I couldn't find any clue for this.
Any comment or suggestion would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Raymond, ABAP Consultant

if you have jco configured, then you can make calls to java api from ABAP .

Using Portal Theme for a Web Dynpro ABAP Application

Hello everyone,
I've created a web-dynpro abap application that I display on one of my portal pages using a Web-dynpro iView.
Somehow, the WDA app never reads the portal theme properties and has the default SAP roadshow theme colors. I've tried almost everything including passing the theme as an application parameter using WDTHEMEROOT and WDFORCEEXTERNALSTYLESHEET params.
Documentation states that the application should automatically read the portal's theme, but it never does.
Interestingly, I have one more web-dynpro java application that works fine and uses the portal theme correctly.
Am I missing anything? Are there special considerations for WDA apps to adapt to the current portal theme?
Any ideas, suggestions, solutions would be greatly appreciated.

>Am I missing anything? Are there special considerations for WDA apps to adapt to the current portal theme?
What are the release and support package levels of both your ABAP system and your portal? If the ABAP AS has a later release or SP level than the portal, the Web Dynpro framework will always fall back to using the theme of the backend ABAP system. This is to protect the application rendering. Running with a theme (CSS and JavaScript) from an older release or support package level could cause the application to render incorrectly.

How to integrate backend web dynpro abap application in Portal 7.3?

Hello,
before Portal 7.3 I was able to integrate a web dynpro abap application as iView in the portal. Now I don't get the point on how to do it. I cannot find a "normal" iview that enables me to give the backend and the application name. The possibilty to create iView based on remote source looks strange because I don't want to upload the application I just want to do my normal user/pass mapping and show the applicaton via iView.
Somehow I don't get the point with the new version. Could someone give me a hint where to find more information regardings this problem`?
Thanks a lot,
Vanessa

Hi Vanessa,
Could someone tell me if I should see the SAP Web Dynpro for ABAP iView template in the long list of available templates when I create a new iView?
You will 'SAP Web Dynpro iView' option in the list while creating iview from template.Create and change the property platform to 'Web Dynpro for ABAP'.
Is it correct not to use the remote source option? I think yes because otherwise he would upload the app to the portal, if I am not wrong.
If i understood your question correct,then You can use this option as well to create iview.Atlast it wil create only iview for the application not the application itself in the portal.

Adding attachments to workflow from Web Dynpro ABAP Application program.

Hi,
workflow is supposed to start by a Web Dynpro ABAP Application.
The user can attach files to it.
A superior is supposed to review the files and either approve or reject the request.
I tried the following in Web Ddynpro ABAP:
CALL FUNCTION 'EWW_WORKFLOW_START'
EXPORTING
X_TASK = 'WS90000074'
IMPORTING
Y_WORKFLOW_ID = lv_WF_ID
TABLES
X_CONTAINER = lv_IT_CONTAINER
EXCEPTIONS
then followed by:
CALL FUNCTION 'SAP_WAPI_ATTACHMENT_ADD'
EXPORTING
WORKITEM_ID = lv_wf_id
ATT_HEADER = lv_swr_att_header
ATT_BIN = Item_FILENAMEATTACHED
DOCUMENT_OWNER = SY-UNAME
LANGUAGE = SY-LANGU
IMPORTING
ATT_ID = lv_swr_att_id
The Workflow has only one user decision step and one notification Step.
In the user decision step, there is a binding from ATTACHOBJECTS to the task.
But, in the log, you can see the attachment in the Workflow Container of the workflow instance, but you don't see it in the task (neither Inbox nor UWL)
I have checked the binding it is correct. I am getting the attachment in workflow container in '_attach_objects' element. but this attachment has to go to the user decision step, so I am binding the '_attach_objects' of workflow container to '_attach_objects' of user decision step. But the attachment was not going to user decision step.
Could you please let me know where am i doing wrong?
Thanks,
V.Nagaraju

@Ruslim Chang
Sorry to point out but the FM will return the Workitem ID only so there is no problem with the LV_WF_ID variable.
@vundralla nagaraju
Instead of making binding between attachobjects make binding between
WiGroup_ID <---- attachobjects
and then on the next step you try to make biniding in the user decision step by using WiGroup_ID.I think it should work.

Adjusting portal theme of Web Dynpro ABAP application

Hi,
can the style of all UI elements in our Web Dynpro ABAP application changed in the style sheet editor of the portal?
Or shall we avoid some already in the application?
And can we also use the Eclipse Portal Editor to change the theme for our ABAP application in the portal?
Thanks, Regards
Susanne

Most all UI elements can be changed by the Theme Editor. Not all aspects of each UI element is customizable. You will need to look through the theme editor to see what all it supports.
You can use the Eclipse Portal Editor (unsupported by SAP) to change the them of WDA applications.

HI all:
    I have two web dynpro abap applications .
    I want to send a Variable from a web dynpro abap application to another web dynpro abap application using post method.
    Because, now I have used append_field_url to send Variable,but this method will display the Variable in the URL.
    I do not need this result.
    I need the Variable from a web dynpro abap application to another web dynpro abap application and the Variable will not display in the URL.
    Can you give me an example?
    Thanks.

HI Nawal Kishor Mittal :
I have tried your method,but I can not get the value of variable.
My code is as follows:
The first web dynpro abap application:

     l_value TYPE string,
     END OF l_send.
l_send-l_value = '400001'.
EXPORT l_send-l_value FROM l_send TO SHARED MEMORY indx(aa) ID 'YTEST_MATNR'.

How is Web-dynpro ABAP application is accessed in web.

Hi
How are pages in ABAP-Webdynpro rendered in web, how does they get converted in HTML.
As far as my understanding, ICM forwards the request to Application server ABAP, if request is for ABAP webdynpro page.
After that does ITS play a role to render these pages in Web ??

First of all ITS has absolutely nothing to do with Web Dynpro ABAP.
When you design a Web Dynpro ABAP application an XML based meta-data representation of the User Interface is saved in the repository. Then at runtime we have a Web Dynpro ABAP rendering engine (written completely in ABAP Classes) uses this meta-data to render corresponding HTML and JavaScript content that gets loaded into the HTTP Response object. We actually have multiple rendering engines for Web Dynpro (xBCML for Flash and the NWBC) as well as the ability to replace and upgrade these rendering engines over time without disrupting the applications. This is what is currently happening with 7.01 - we have rewritten the HTML/JavaScript renderer with a new version called LightSpeed.

How to call custom themes for Web Dynpro ABAP Application?

Hi,
I need to change the appearance of Web Dynpro ABAP application. So far I followed below steps,
1.     Created theme folder u2018testngou2019 (SE80->MIME Repositoty -> SAP->PUBLIC->BC->UR->nw5->themes -> u2018testngou2019 ).
2.     used program BSP_UPDATE_MIMEREPOS to dowmloaod content of u2018sap_tradeshowu2019 (SE80->MIME Repositoty -> SAP->PUBLIC->BC->UR->nw5->themes -> sap_tradeshowu2019) to desktop.
3.     Modified the themes using Eclipse Theme Editor.
4.     used program BSP_UPDATE_MIMEREPOS to upload modified themes to MIME repository u2018testngou2019 (SE80->MIME Repositoty -> SAP->PUBLIC->BC->UR->nw5->themes -> u2018testngou2019) .
My current URL is like http://server.name:XXXX/sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/hrrcf_a_startpage_int_cand?sap-client=XXX.
Now I want to know how custom themes called for Web Dynpro ABAP Application.
Is my approach correct?
...Naddy

Hi Naddy,
What you used is one way and even I failed when tried that method,
Instead go to SE38 - WD_THEMES - and you need to upload the zip file and you need to follow a folder structure.
it is case sensitive, atleast the zip file.
Make a zip file by name "Project.zip" -
Create a Folder Project and have the below folder structure,
1 data - all the properties files and also the designinfo file, below is the code
2 themes - (to get all the files download the theme from portal and you will have all the folders)
   2.1 ur
     2.1.1 name of the theme
       2.1.1.1 common
       2.1.1.2 csf
       2.1.1.3 r
       2.1.1.4 ur - all the css files (would be good if you can get the files from the server.)
       2.1.1.5   WSRP
3 war - empty folder
*.designinfo
isVisible=true
version=7.0.14.1.0
isDefault=false
isSapDesign=false
designName=**** name of the theme
Once done create a zip file and click on Start Import and give the path and will ask for transport request, it will take a while to upload once done as mentioned in the use the parameter sap-ep-themeroot="path"
This will resolve the issue.
Cheers-
Pramod

CRM2007 How to add a Web Dynpro ABAP application to a CRM business role

I am investigating CRM2007 UI framework and I cannot seem to find a way to add a custom made Web Dynpro ABAP Application (created in CRM 4.0) to a business role, or how to add a custom transaction created in classic ABAP (transaction created via se93, progam created via se38). Whatever I do, I only see BSP components. I am using transaction BSP_WD_CMPWB.
Next to this it seems you can add/integrate Visual Composer applications to (there is an entry in spro called "integration of the visual composer in BI"). However, I presume we first have to meet the requirements for the portal integration in SAP CRM 2007 as described in spro. If somebody knows how this works, that would be great!
kind regards
Angelique Heutinck

Hello Angelique,
It should be possible to call web dynpro applications from the L-shape menu of CRM UI (check transaction CRMC_UI_NBLINKS). As for the old GUI transactions, you can embedd them also via transaction launcher using CRMC_UI_NBLINKS (search for "transaction launcher" in this forum, there is plenty of information on it).
Best Regards,
Yevgen

Integration a Web Dynpro ABAP application within one of my EP overview page

Hi Experts,
I've got an issue when integrating a Web Dynpro ABAP application within one of my EP overview pages.
We've implemented PLM using the Web Dynpro ABAP scenario for employees. Now Iu2019m trying to integrate this into the Employee Self-Service overview page. I've got no issue to make the icon and area title appears, but when I click on it I get a blank page with Error 404. However when clicking on the link in the navigation bar (Level 2) then I get the page fine. So it looks like EP is not able to integrate correctly the Web Dynpro ABAP into the overview page in EP. Is there any specific Resource configuration?
One more thing is that if I've implemented the same iView using Resources -> Services -> Sub Areas -> Areas everything works fine, but I receive two navigation Levels (Area Group contains the Area Link and when I click it brings me to Sub Area with the single Service Link) I want to avoid this double clicking, calling the application directly from Area Group -> Area link.
Anyone has ever come across that kind of issue? Has anyone ever integrated a WDA application directly into an overview page?

Hi,
We faced a similar problem with BSPs and had to change the definition of the area link type entry.
I am assuming you have set the area link type to WebDynpro for ABAP and the resource is calling an Iview/page that has the WD ABAP application configured.
To get around the error, change the Area Link type to Calls a Portal page and make sure the resource calls an Iview/Page that has the WD ABAP application configured.

Issue While printing / Previewing a Adobe form in Web Dynpro ABAP application

Dear All,
We have designed 4 different adobe forms using SFP transaction for 4 different countries in SAP system.
Every country have different terms and conditions and therefore we have placed static texts (Hardcoded text) with text in different styles. Some text is in bold, some in different font (Bold, Italic). Font and Paragraph settings of the text was done as per expected. All the forms have same font and paragraph settings.
When we Launch Web Dynpro ABAP application to open the form in Print preview or to take print, form is not getting displayed / printed as it is designed in SFP. But if you open the form in SFP, everything looks fine.
It is working fine for 3 different forms but problem with only 1 form.
Kindly guide what is the reason for this strange issue when previewed or taken print. It is very urgent.
Thanks,
Bharath.K

Dear All,
Thanks for your responses.
We had identified the reason.
Customer has provided terms and conditions for all 4 countries in PDF document. Along with PDF, for 3 out of 4 countries customer has shared pre-prepared word document with pre aligned and justified terms and conditions as per expected outcome. We copied this text from word to Adobe form layout. It worked fine. For 1 country, customer have not shared terms and conditions in word document. Therefore we had copied text directly from adobe PDF document in to Form layout. Then this issue happened.
Solution for this issue is to, prepared a word document with expected alignment and justification of terms and conditions text . Then copied from word to adobe livecycle designer form layout. It worked fine.
Thanks,
Bharath.
