Call SAP GUI actions from Web UI

We have upgraded our CRM system from 4.0 to 7.0. In CRM 4.0 we have some complex actions used in service order. We would really like to be able to reuse those SAP GUI actions from Web UI service order since it would require a lot of work to rewrite them in BSP.. Is it possible to call a SAP GUI action from Web UI? How do we do this?
Regards Andreas
Edited by: Andreas on Jan 17, 2011 1:58 PM

That was very helpful information. I can now see the available actions. The problem now is that one of the SAP GUI actions is using dialog program technique, like CALL SCREEN 9001... Is there a way to handle this also from Web UI or is it impossible?
Thanks and regards
Andreas

Calling SAP GUI Client from a Java Webdynpro app.

Hello experts,
We would like to call the SAP GUI client from a java WebDynpro application running without portal or ITS. Can it be done by having a web link, with mime registration in internet explorer to kick off the SAP GUI ? (similar behavior with a SAP favorite link saved on the desktop).
many Thanks.

Hi,
Webdynpro possibilities:
1. You can try to use LinkToUrl.
with reference to file://<exefile> or your weblink with the mime type (possibly some java coding can be required; I can try to help).
2. other option is to use IFrame and you can use either href to your exe or weblink
Web Explorers:
1. IE: It should work. if you point to exe file popup window will be displayed asking for action (run, save, cance).
2. Firefox: the only way I know to make it work is to modify nsHelperAppDlg.js file (if you need Firefox I can tell you how to modify the file).
Kind Regards, Jack

Call SAP GUI txn from WD4A running in the SAP GUI

I'm somewhat new to Web Dynpro and I'm trying to evaluate the use of WD4A as our main custom screen/txn platform. I have written a simple application. I created a transaction code that calls WDYID and launches my WD4A application in the SAP GUI.
Our company does a lot of "CALL TRANSACTION" in our normal dynpro development and I need to prove out that it is possible to do the same in WD4A. I've used the following code to try and call a transaction:
CALL METHOD lo_window_manager->create_external_window
    EXPORTING
      url           =
'http://<host>:<port>/sap/bc/gui/sap/its/webgui?sap-client=<client>&~TRANSACTION=VA03'
     title          = 'Display Orderl'
*    MODAL          = ABAP_FALSE
*    HAS_MENUBAR    = ABAP_TRUE
*    IS_RESIZABLE   = ABAP_TRUE
*    HAS_SCROLLBARS = ABAP_TRUE
*    HAS_STATUSBAR = ABAP_TRUE
*    HAS_TOOLBAR    = ABAP_TRUE
*    HAS_LOCATION   = ABAP_TRUE
    RECEIVING
      window         = lo_wd_window.
The problem with this is that when called from the SAP GUI, it launches a browser. I would like for it to go directly to the WebGUI version of VA03.
Is this possible?

Hi Adam,
you should be able to suspend to an ITS call.
- however you might fall foul of a bug - fixed in note 1255292 (Special characters not permitted for suspend/redirect)
Not sure if this is what is causing the issue...
Can you not pass parameters to the transaction using the CL_WDR_SAPGUI_INTEGRATION2->FIRE method?
this is what is called by the FIRE_START_TRANSACTION method, but allows for additional parameters.(I've never used it myself so I'm not sure that it would work, but would be interesting to find out - could you let us know?)
Cheers,
Chris

Executing SAP GUI Script From a Web Page

I have an issue when trying to execute some javascript (sap gui script) from a webpage.
When the javascript is executed I get the message:
automation server unable to create object.
However, this exact same javascript when placed in a text file and double-clicked executes just fine through the windows scripting host.
Does anyone have an example of gui script code executing from a webpage? Or any ideas on why it isn't working from the webpage? Both scenarios should be executing the code on the local machine through WSH.
Below is the javascript as well as the webpage executing the javascript:
SAPGUI SCRIPT
if (typeof(application) == "undefined")
   sapgui      = GetObject("SAPGUI");
   application = sapgui.GetScriptingEngine;
if (typeof(connection) == "undefined")
   connection = application.children(0);
if (typeof(session) == "undefined")
   session = connection.children(0);
if (typeof(WScript) != "undefined")
   WScript.connectObject(session, "on");
   WScript.connectObject(application, "on");
session.findById("wnd[0]").maximize();
session.findById("wnd[0]/tbar[0]/okcd").text = "/nzsd1067";
session.findById("wnd[0]").sendVKey(0);
session.findById("wnd[0]/usr/ctxtVBAK-KUNNR").text = "6343";
session.findById("wnd[0]").sendVKey(0);

Hi Bernd,
the following code works in VBS. If you run saplogon.exe you'll get a message box saying '/app'.
Set Wrp = CreateObject ("SapROTWr.SapROTWrapper")
Set SapGui = Wrp.GetROTEntry ("SAPGUI")
Set application = sapgui.GetScriptingEngine
MsgBox application.id
I haven't tried it on a web page, but I don't see why it shouldn't work there. Ok, maybe the MsgBox is command is not available.
Best regards,
Christian

If you want to put up a confirm dialog before calling an action from
an

Here is an example from code of mine that deletes a customer order,if
the
user confirms the delete. I pass the order id as a parameter.

Here is the JavaScript -
function confirmDelete() {
if(confirm('Continue with order delete?'))
return true;

Here is a sample anchor tag -

Calling a Report Program from Web Dynpro

Hi all,
I have a requirement, where i have to call a report program from web dynpro?. Wether its possible to call a report program in web dynpro?. Is we can call it, how this functionality has to be achived?

Hello,
Yes it is possible to call report using SUBMIT statement from one of the method defined in COMPONENTCONTROLLER's method tab.
Once you define the method with SUBMIT statement then call that method with proper event.
Rest configuration will remain same for ABAP webdynpro.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,

Calling SAP GUI Search help from BSP

Hi,
Please find my requirement below:
I have a Sales Order field with a Search button.
Once Search button is clicked, it should call standard F4 composite search help.
I have tried calling the search help VMVA for sales order, using the Function Module DD_SHLP_CALL_FROM_DYNP.
Once search i clicked this FM is called but in CALL SCREEN statement it goes to page error/dump.
Kindly let me know if there is any other solution for the same.

Hi
As far as I am aware there is no standard way of calling a search help from a bsp. You have to create your own bsp tags to do this.

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,
