Accessing local clipboard with SAP GUI for HTML - alternatives?!?

I need some creative suggestions (PLEASE!!!) to a problem that weu2019re having replicating functionality that works in SAPGUI but which we canu2019t get working in SAP GUI for HTML.
In SAPGUI we are able to open an external browser and pass a URL for the page we want to open.  Once the page is open the user enters some data and receives a response which we then copy to the local workstation clipboard.  From within ABAP we then read the clipboard contents and then copy them in to a field in the SAP screen.  It works BRILLIANTLY! 
However, Iu2019m not able to get the same functionality to work in SAP GUI for HTML with method CLIPBOARD_IMPORT of CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES.  Apparently this class and the methods can not be used in SAP GUI for HTML u2013 however OSS note 314568 seems to suggest otherwise with this statement:
Clipboard access
In SAP GUI for HTML it is not possible to:
- read or write the clipboard using ABAP Objects class CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES.
  This limitation no longer exists with ITS 6.20 Patch 23, SAP Netweaver 2004 SP 19 and SAP Netweaver 2004s SP 10.
Has anyone been able to use the class CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES to read from the Clipboard since this statement was made in this OSS note?
And my bigger question u2013 does anyone have a creative idea for a solution that will work?

Thank you experts,
Your answers have been really helpfull, we have to try another method, by Studio Program or ABAP code, unfortunely we have to implement this in so many computers, so is impossible to configure one by one.
Thanks to both, and have a nice 2009!

  • Problem with SAP GUI for HTML

    Hi SDN
    I am creating a SAP transaction iView with SAP GUI for HTML. I have give the Transaction code VA01 but when i execute the the iView it is displaying the  SAP Easy Access screen in html. Can any one suggest me how to rectify this error and display the required transaction in html.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards
    Basha

    Hi Basha,
    Try this in the browser:
    http://<host>:<port>/sap/bc/gui/sap/its/va01?sap-client=100(XXX)
    1) It will ask for the username and password
    2) Enter the credentials and it should directly take you to the VA01 transaction
    If it fails again, try this:
    http://<host>:<port>/sap/bc/gui/sap/its/vl31w?sap-client=100(XXX)
    This should display the "Create Inbound Delivery NotificationTitle Create Inbound Delivery Notification " sreen."
    If it faisl again, there is some problem with the way the ITS has set up. Check with your basis.
    Thanks,

  • Writing files in your local hard disk with SAP GUI for HTML

    Hello SAP Experts
    We have a problem with the SAP GUI for HTML, we create a program in ABAP that writes a file into your local machine, and it works just fine when we test it directly in the SAP GUI for Windows, but if we use the SAP GUI for HTML implementend in a SAP Portal 7.0 the same program doesn't run, it just freeze in the moment that the program must create the file, so my question is if it's possible to use that functionality in the GUI HTML, or do you have another suggestion???
    Thanks a lot,

  • Problem With SAP GUI for HTML iView

    Hi All,
    I have created a transaction iView(SAP GUI for HTML) for the T code SE12, when I view the iview, it get loaded for the first time and if I log out and when i again login to the portal and view the transaction iview it is not getting loaded. If I clear the cache(By pressing Ctrl+F5) the same iview get loaded.
    Could any one help me in solving this problem
    Regards

    Hi Shiva,
    For SAP transaction iViews better to use SAP GUi for Windows option instead of SAP GUI for HTML.
    Hope it helps for you..

  • WebDynpro proxy page with Webdynpro iView and SAP Gui for html iView

    Hello,
    I have a requirement to have a page that has at the top of it a webdynpro for java iView screen with several links that when pressed pop-up various data pulled from the back-end. This part is fine and presents no problem. Beneath this the requirement calls for a SAP Gui for HTML iView to be displayed. Which is no problem either. The problem occurs when one of the links in the java webdynpro application at the top of the screen is pressed it causes the SAP Gui for HTML portion to refresh and come back to the beginning. So for example you first navigate to this screen and you go into the sap gui for html portion and drill into 2 or 3 screens in the sap gui for html transaction. If you then press one of the webdynpro links the sap gui for html (which is a separate iView) refreshes and you are taken back to the initial screen. This only occurs when using a web dynpro proxy page. If I use a standard page the SAP Gi for html does not refresh. Unfortunately there are other things not mentioned here that require us to use the webdynpro proxy page.
    Any help is greatly appreciated,
    Bert

    Use System admin -> System Config and find your system in the PCD (under portal content). Right click and open -> permissions. Find a user or group or role and give it the end user permission. I'd suggest the group Everyone.
    Cheers

  • WebDynpro with embedded SAP GUI for HTML transaction

    Hello,
    I have been given a requirement for a WebDynpro application that will have some links and figures at the top and underneath that there will be a SAP GUI for HTML transaction visible. What is the best method for handling this type of scenario? This is a 7.0 portal connecting to ECC 5.0 on the back-end.
    Thanks,
    Bert

    Hello Bert,
    I would have implemented your scenario in following way:
    1. Create a transaction iView in portal using SAP GUI for HTML.
    2. In the web dynpro application, you have multiple choices to use the transaction iview created in above step.
             a. Use a IFrame UI element giving it the portal based url for the transaction iview
             b. Use POrtal Navigation API to navigate to the transaction iview.
             WDPortalNavigation.navigateAbsolute(
             "ROLES://portal_content/com.sap.PageNavigationProject/com.sap.TargetPage",
                WDPortalNavigationMode.SHOW_INPLACE,
                (String) null,
                (String) null,
                WDPortalNavigationHistoryMode.NO_DUPLICATIONS,
                (String) null,
                (String) null,
                [<url params>]
    Hope this helps you.

    I don't think this is possible.  Please see note 314568 about the limitations of the SAPgui for HTML (webgui), the "Clipboard access" section seems to describe this limitation.

  • Connect to SAP R/3  using SAP GUI for HTML through saprouter

    Hello,
    I have my system running on my intranet, but I need to connect some support enginners through an Internet connection. Nowadays some users can connect to QAS and PRO systems using SAP GUI for windows and java with the saprouter string,  but the support enginners are using SAP GUI for HTML, do I need a special string or configuration so html users can connect to my system from the Internet?
    Thanks in advance.

    thanks, I can get the data from SAP R/3 to crystal report.
    but still dont know how to do the second question mentioned in previous message:
    once the table I want to get the data from is a cluster, and have found the mapping data dictionary of this data cluster, which displayed in crystal report connection as well, however, the data is not what I wanted.

  • Report painter report in portal - Excel output in SAP GUI for HTML

    Dear sirs,
    I need your expertize. I would like to let my users display (Excel in place)/ save the result of my report painter reports into MS Excel. I have found notes 499262 a 314568, but didn´t understand the message (or there is no message:)). Does that mean I cannot use Excel in place together with Report painter and SAP GUI for HTML?
    Second question: is there a place (user exit in generated code? I don´t even know what I am looking for) to get the data provided by the report painter engine and send the retrieved data to some custom function (to be able to call the Adobe form, to save it as a text file or any option how to manipulate the resulting data...?).
    thank you for your time and effort,
    regards Otto

    Hi Otto,
    You can send print the report to the spool and then use RSTXPDFT4 program to convert this spool to PDF file. Alternatively, you can export the spool to spreadsheet or ASCII file via SP01 transaction.
    Additinally, I'm not aware of unability to use Excel output with SAP GUI interface.

  • Store Business Document via SAP GUI for HTML

    We are trying to use SAP GUI for HTML via UWL in Portal to deliver Workflow.

We are on ECC 6.0 and Portal 7.0. Any help is greatly appreciated.

  • ALV GRID  and Integrated ITS 7 (SAP GUI for HTML) - dissapears on reload

    Hi All,
    We have a custom report that uses an ALV grid to display information to the user. Within this grid, there are fields that are display only and fields that are editable. Also, the grid is wider than the screen's width. It works fine in ECC. It also worked fine when we were using ITS 6.4.
    We have recently upgraded to ITS 7. Now when we run the report using a Transaction iView (in EP 7) or the Webgui service (SAP GUI for HTML), if a field that is editable has focus when an event is triggered that reloads the grid, the screen becomes blank. So, you can click the Save button and the screen goes blank, also, there are date fields in the grid and if you choose a new date, the grid reloads and the screen becomes blank.
    We have found that when the screen is blank, you can use the "Page Up" button on your keyboard and the last few columns of the grid will appear. As if the entire grid has moved off-screen to the left.
    If you click onto a non-editable field and refresh or save, the grid returns to its normal state.
    We are on Basis Patch level 15.
    Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?
    Also, does anyone know of a standard SAP transaction we can call from the Webgui that would have a similar setup...with an ALV grid containing editable and non-editable fields? We would like to rule out any errors in the report itself. Since it worked before we upgraded and it works fine in ECC. This would be a really big help too.
    Thank you so much!
    -Kevin

    Hi,
    Thanks Raymond, I have seen Note 314568. I could not get the second link to work but I have looked at just about every Note in reference to Integrated ITS 7 and Tables or ALV Grids and there are very many, so it would appear that SAP has had a hard time with implementing this control, but I have not seen any instance that matches the problem we are having.
    Unfortunately, SAP will not investigate this unless we can provide a standard Transaction that exhibits the same behavior.
    If anyone knows of a standard SAP Transaction that displays an ALV Grid that is wider than the screen (requiring a horizontal scroll bar) and with editable and non-editable fields, that would be fantastic. If we can test against that, then we would know for sure if this is a problem with ITS / SAP GUI for HTML, or if there is an issue with this specific report.
    Thanks!

  • Image not displaying properly for SAP GUI for HTML transaction iview

    Hi,
    We have a sap gui for HTML iview for transaction REORRR in portal. After giving enough inputs this leads to Business Document Navigator screen(part of Document management) where i need to display a document(.jpg image in this scenario). When i double click on the image it is opening on the right side of the screen but in a compressed format where in we need to scroll down to see the image. But i would require the image to display with out scroll bar or in a new window.
    When i change the format of the iview as SAP GUI for Windows the image is opening in a new window.
    I would like to know whether there is any configaration settings either in portal or in Document management side. or is this any limitation of the SAP GUI for HTML scenario.
    regards
    Bharat.

    Hi,
    You can open this iview in a new window make the setting in the iview properties that will allow the iview to be opend in a new window.
