BSP vs Web Dynpro ABAP

Hello,
we are looking for a listing that states the functional and technical differences between Web Dynpro ABAP an BSP.
Is there anybody who has come along such a list ?
Tx a lot in advance!
Best regards,

Annette,

The SAP Web Application Server (WAS) provides a page-based programming model with server-side scripting as well as server page technology for developing, designing and implementing Web applications:
Business Server Pages (BSP). Server-side scripting enables direct access to all elements in the application server (such as function modules, database tables, ABAP Objects, and so on.).
We can create HTML pages or Business Server Pages (BSPs) with server-side scripting in ABAP or JavaScript.
The HTMLB and XHTMLB HTML Business libraries are available as BSP Extensions for a uniform layout and its associated usability advantages.
And In the Web Application Server, the presentation layer is separate from the business logic. This makes it possible to implement front-end technology.
Why BSP NOT WebDynpro
                          BSP
              ABAP WEBDYNPRO
Currently PMUSA/JMC customers are using Fire fox (Mozilla), Internet Explorer and Netscape navigator web browsers to access WEBUYPM application.
BSP supports these web browsers.
Restricted (Some of the features will not be supported by WebDynpro)
Existing WEBUYPM application is written in HTML, Business HTML and JavaScript language.
BSP supports these languages. And it allows even to mix ABAP, HTML and JavaScript thus has more flexibility to convert WEBUYPM application into BSP.
Web Dynpro does not support HTML/JavaScript.
Existing WEBUYPM displays the trade communications (Information tab) based on JavaScript and custom configuration file
BSP supports JavaScript, we can display the trade communications in BSP too.
Web Dynpro does not support Java Script.
Existing WEBUYPM application has different colors schemes, Logos and graphical elements for PMUSA/JMC companies.
BSP support s multiple color schemes/logo. These color schemes can be set dynamically based on company code selection at runtime.
Separate Themes has to be developed for each User Interface elements.
Development effort needs to be involved to even display a logo.
BSP supports client side (user) validations. As most of these validations can be done at client side, the no. of hits on the server can be reduced and thus giving better response for the user inputs.
In this way, performance can be increased.
Web dynpro does not support any client side validations, every time the request must be sent to server to validate the useru2019s input. This increases the traffic and reduces the performance
WEBUYPM application has logos, images.
BSP supports Client side caching, and thus loads these element from client side very quickly.
Web dynpro supports very little use of caching on the client side, and hence quite a significant delay in starting on some customeru2019s browsers.
BSP has no restriction on user interface possibilities, Ex. Grid, drop down boxes, Font colors, size etc.
Significantly more restrictive in user interface possibilities.
Ex. Only those fonts, which are provided by SAP, can be used.
Appearance can be changed dynamically using same web pages, to support different colors for different companies.
We can have same (or better) look and feel if we convert the application into BSP.
As there is no HTML coding involved in web dynpro the same look and feel as we have it today can't be achieved by using web dynpro.
BSP is built for developing any type of web application (including mobile applications. It can be accessed from desktop, laptop, and any kind of smart devices like PDA.
Web dynpro applications can not be accessed from PDA s (Not possible)
Why WebDynpro NOT BSP
             ABAP WEBDYNPRO
                           BSP
Personalization can be given to the end user if they do not want see any of the user-interface elements.
We can not hide any of the user-interface elements (Ex buttons ex) during the runtime.
Note - Current WEBUYPM application does not support any of these options.
Currently we are setting/retrieving the runtime context values in a session.
Web dynpro supports State full applications.
No additional development would be required. 
BSP also supports to set runtime values and to retrieve the runtime context values, but minor development would be required to achieve this functionality. 
Currently users can see view source for WEBUYPM HTML pages.
Using Web dynpro this can be restricted thus providing more security to the application.
HTML view source can be available to the users, Users can see the HTML client side code (not server side coding) as it does today.
By using Adobe Flash Island, powerful web pages (RIA) can be created.
But, Flash Island comes with Net weaver.
BSP does not support Flash Island. But, BSP supports Java Script.
JavaScript is essential for the new trend of rich internet applications (RIA), it is used by all the new applications, Ajax, Widgets, Flash, and even Microsoft is supporting JavaScript for the new generation of RIA
Web dynpro has wizard tools to generate the code to create/configure the User Interface elements.
Development effort would be required to create UI elements.
We dynpro has uniformity as we use standard colors provided by SAP
Uniformity can be achieved by using style sheets (minor development would be required).
Thanks

  • How can I capture mouse click events on BSP or Web Dynpro ABAP Screen

    hi Guys,
    Currently we have a user inactivity problem,
    the requirement is: if user is clicking on BSP/Web Dynpro ABAP screen, he/she is considered active. so we need an mechanism to capture the mouse click event.
    Using Firebug, we found that this js is in the iframe which contains BSP/web dynpro scrren: /sap/public/bc/ur/nw5/js/languages/urMessageBundle_en.js
    we want to find this js file & put in some javascript code to track user's mouse click, but i cannot find it on server.
    while in ie if we type http://host:port/sap/public/bc/ur/nw5/js/languages/urMessageBundle_en.js
    this file can be downloaded, means this file is there.
    Any one can help on this issue? find the js file or another way to capture the mouse click event.
    Thanks a lot with points!

    Hi  Feng Guo,
                        We can not capture mouse click events on Web Dynpro ABAP Screen . I am not sure about BSP. But as for as I know the portal keep active the iViews until unless mouse clicks happens.
    But for your problem I think you can get solution by setting iView Expiration to some more time period.

  • Userid of a Portal-user in Web Dynpro ABAP

    Dear colleagues,
    we want to migrate our application from BSP to Web Dynpro ABAP and I'm looking for a procedure how I can get the userid of a Portal-user in Web Dynpro ABAP which is running inside an iView ?
    In BSP I used iView application parameter user_id and in the BSP the event handler for data retrieval with:
    userid = runtime->server->request->get_form_field( 'userid' ).
    Found a lot of entries how to do it in Java but no one for WDA ?
    Thanks in advance
    Michael

    Hi Michael,
    Actualy it is not so trivial. You have some options:
    1) In case user_id is parameter of iView you can read URL parameter like described here Webdynpro ABAP url-parameters
    2) In case user_id is not iView parameter you can use usuall ABAP <i>sy-uname</i> system variable.
    But pay attantion that it is not really EP user. Here we have 2 options: user mapping and SSO. In case of user mapping <i>sy-uname</i> will contain R/3 user which is mapped to EP user. In case of SSO <i>sy-uname</i> will contain same user name like in EP, because by using SSO user must ne the same on issuing and accepting systems.

  • Web Dynpro ABAP v/s BSP

    These questions are for someone who have extensively worked on both Web Dynpro ABAP as well as BSP in the past.
    (1) Will it be worth gaining knowledge on BSP since we already have now Web 
         Dynpro ABAP platform for web development ?.
        Will it help to learn Web Dynpro ABAP if you have good knowledge in BSP ?.
    (2) In release 6.0 we have Web Dynpro ABAP and with the availabiltity of Web
        Dynpro ABAP do you think there will be any reason for people to go  for
        development using BSP ?.
    Thanks in advance
    Sandeep

    Hi Sandeep ,
    Answer 1) I will suggest to directly Switch it <b>WebDynpro for ABAP</b> .
    I have worked in both areas WebDynpro For Abap and BSP.
    Now why WebDynpro For ABAP .In my view BSP and WebDynpro ABAP are two distinct and Complex areas . So Instead of putting efforts and energy to explore BSP and trying to apply that Logic in WD ABAP won’t be right deal .
    Now let me make you one thing clear . WebDynpro ABAP programming is much <b>more different experience than B</b>SP .It strictly follows <b>MVC</b> (Model View Controller ) .Not just that you need to have good sense of <b>OOABAP</b> classes and methods , interfaces etc.
    May at time Achieving some functionality with BSP over<b> web will be easy deal</b> compare to same thing in WebDynpro ABAP .ut as your thinking in Context of WD ABAP will mature you will find it easier .
    Answer 2) Ya there might be reason for going for BSP development .
    In my view there are to possible reason
    1)     Based on current skill sets of SAP resources and Complexity of thing .Many time if less web Services are there and if you have existing BSP resources then its better for BSP development.
    2)     Amount you want use other things like HTML or javascript .You can more easily use things in BSP .
    I will suggest you to go through following links

  • Integrating Flex/Flash in Web Dynpro ABAP(Netweaver 7.0) need info!

    Hi all,
            I need to embed a flash or a flex object inside a web dynpro abap application.I am working in Netweaver 7.0 and i don't have enhancement pack 1 installed.Is it possible ?   If it is possible can anyone please provide me the coding and configuration details.
    Thanks,
    Saikat

    I'm afraid that the SAP supplied integration technology - call FlashIslands - is only available from NetWeaver 7.01 and forward.  You could perhaps do some simple integration (very little data transfer) with the iFrame UI element - although the iFrame is deprecated in 7.0 and 7.01, but does return to full support in 7.02.  The other option would be to use the NetWeaver Portal or NetWeaver Business Client and have two iViews within the page. One iView would have WDA and the other some external technology (BSP, JSP, etc) to host the Flash/Flex content.  Not tight integration, but you could potentially use Portal Eventing to at least communicate events.

  • Web Dynpro ABAP in SAP E-Recruiting

    Hi,
    We just imported SP8 for our SAP E-Recruiting 6.0. SP8 offers Web Dynpro ABAP as candidate UI. One question we have is how WD pages incorporated for recruiters who still use BSP pages. For example, when a recruiter logs into E-Recruiting and finds a specific candidate, he/she can click on "Candidate Profile" to get to that candidate's pages. In BSP technology, recruiter actually uses exactly the same pages that candidate uses for Work Experience, Education, etc.. With candidate UI using WD technology, does recruiter use the same WD pages when displaying candidate profile information? I have been searching all the possible places, such as IMG, SICF, in order find a spot so that I can set the switch on, but so far unsuccessful.
    Any help is greatly appreciated.
    Li

    Hi Li ,
      At best of my understanding in WD ABAP , its possible to make one WebDynpro page serving same purpose ( showing profile deatils  ) visible for manty( Candidate , as well as Recruiter ) ....
    I would like to know what exactly you want from web Dynpro ..then I will be in better position to tell you.
    FYI ...
    1) Web Dynpro ABAP
    As the name suggests Web Dynpro for ABAP uses exactly the same meta model as its cousin Web Dynpro for Java. A Web Dynpro component, a Web Dynpro view, a Web Dynpro model, a Web Dynpro controller have the same semantics both for ABAP and Java. The main difference is the designtime environment, the development infrastructure and the runtime environment.
    The designtime environment is properly embedded in the ABAP Workbench where Web Dynpro artifacts are simply a new category like BSP applications or classical dynpro based applications before. Also no surprises regarding the development infrastructure. The correction and transport system keeps track on all changes that are done, versions them and helps to propagate the Web Dynpro application from development to production like you would do with ordinary BSP or dynpro-based applications.
    Last not least the execution platform is the ABAP server that produces application content ready to be integrated in the NetWeaver Portal seamlessly. Features like portal eventing can be used between applications written in ABAP or applications developed with Java.
    2 ) I can give you links that can help you a lot.
    First of all start doing SAP SDN tutorials .
    Create some compenents with BAPI , Component usage and ALV .

  • BADI for changing Appraisal document application name for Web dynpro ABAP

    Hi,
    For Appraisal document customizing through PHAP_CATALOG_PA, We have BADI HRHAP00_BSP_TMPL  to change the BSP application name which can be used in Web layout for output display. Using this we can change application name from HAP_DOCUMENT to custom BSP application name
    Similarly, what is the BADI for changing Web dynpro ABAP applictaion name? Currently its triggering HAP_MAIN_DOCUMENT.
    how do we change application name to some custom web dynpro application name
    Regards,
    Kothand

    Hi Karim,
    I don't know, if there is any chance to get the Webdynpro application name. At least in the ABAP System fields is no information about the webdynpro application name.
    One remark: I have allways problems with BAPIS / BADIS that behave different depending on the caller. Could it be a good idea to pass some information through the interface / parameters?
    Best regards

    I don't believe that your answer applies to Web Dynpro ABAP.  Page with Flog Logic sounds like BSP.  Please make sure you are posting about the correct technology.

  • Web Dynpro ABAP call transaction in the foreground

    In Screen Painter/SAP ALV, we can create a screen where for example if you double click on a sales order field it can take you a VA03 transaction by :
    call transaction VA03 ... and skip first screen.
    I am creating Web Dynpro ABAP application that needs to do the same thing where if we click on the field, it will take to VA03 transaction or other transactions.
    Has anyone done this in Web Dynpro ABAP? I have done some research and determine that we cannot call transaction in the foreground? I hope I am wrong.  Any help/insights will be greatly appreciated.

    Hi Phong,
    WDA is generic client to Netweaver connection based on HTTP/S.
    At this stage on a few clients are supported. WEB dynpro client and Browsers...
    SAPGUI connects to SAP using a different protocol.
    No SAPGUI connection is implied by a WDA client connection.
    Therefore  abap statements that invoke screens and otherwise assume SAPGUI
    is connected are not supported in WDA.   eg call screen, call transaction
    You can either
                         a) build your own WDC to front end calls to BAPIs to get the Sales order data.
                        b) open/ exit to the new WDC for Sales Orders in ERP2005
                              see LORD_MAINTAIN_COMP
                           c) exit to the INTERNAL ITS URL for transaction VA03 
                               eg http://<host>:<port>/sap/bc/gui/sap/its/webgui?~Transaction=VA03
                              but getting the skip first screen may require you to call custom tran ZVA03
                               which calls VA03 to skip first screen setting the PID appropriately.
    Hopefully you opt for option a) or b).
    c) can work... I have used it from BSPs but it not pretty.
    regards

  • Web dynpro abap or java ?

    Hi All,
          Our client wants a web front end for the SAP system and has asked us to search which web dynpro ABAP or Java will be suitale ?
          They were of the opinion that web dynpro for ABAP is not that good for web interfaces is it correct ?Also is there demend for web dynpro developers in the market ?
    Thanks & Regards
    Gaurav Jain

    >They were of the opinion that web dynpro for ABAP is not that good for web interfaces is it correct ?
    What do you mean by Web Interfaces?  Web Dynpro ABAP and Java are well suited for created browser-based (or rich client based) business application User Interfaces.  If by Web Interfaces you mean Internet facing, highly customizable user interfaces - then no - neither web dynpro abap or java are really well suited for that situation.  WDA and WDJ are both designed to create consistent Business Application user interfaces.
    Now if you just want to compare WDA and WDJ - that is a very different question. The differences in capabilities are relatively minor. Generally it comes down to which programming language you have more of a skill set in and how close to the underlying data you need to be.  Also are you planning to extend existing SAP applications?  WDA is primarily used by SAP within the Business Suite (ERP, SRM, PLM, etc) - two exceptions however - WDJ is used in ESS/MSS (although newer portions of that solution are in WDA) and CRM uses BSP/CRMUI.  WDJ is used by the middleware components (Portal) and edge or composite applications.

  • No switch to HTTPS occurred in Web Dynpro ABAP application

    We are building a Web Dynpro ABAP application and when I logon I get:
    No switch to HTTPS occurred, so it is not secure to send a password
    I want to suppress this message but I can only find a parameter that works for BSP applications (You can suppress the message using the property BspDontShowHttpsWarning. Goto SICF and locate your service, open node and choose tab error pages. At redirect URL add '&bspdontshowhttpswarning=X').
    However, for Web dynpro this parameter does not work. Does somebody know if there is a parameter available for web dynpro ABAP applications to suppress this message?
    kind regards
    Angelique Heutinck

    Angeline
    I asume that you are using a "Basic Authentication" method, if this is your case, you should configure the SICF service with the following parametters:
    1) Go to SICF, /yourservice / double click
    2) On the "Logon Data" tab, in the "Procedure" option choose "Alternative Logon Procedure".
    3) On the same tab, at the "Logon procedure option", delete the SSO option, and change the Number of the another methods, raised the "Basic Authentication" to the first place.
    4) Go to Error pages tab, flag "System logon", and after that click over Configuration, here check "Do no display warnings"
    Hope this help you !

  • 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).

    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.
