Call to Web Sevice in external system from SAP CRM

Hi,
I have to make a call to External system from SAP CRM 5.0 system. The external system will provide a sample webservice which SAP will try to initiate
Can you please tell me:
1. What settings/object needs to be maintained in SAP in order to make this call.
2. how I can make a call to this Web-Service from a BADI and pass the values to web service and also capture the returning value.
Please explain in detail
Thanks,
Mike

Mike,
You should honestly search the SDN site for consuming web services with ABAP. There are some good examples.
However the general procedure is easy:
1. Generate an ABAP proxy using the WSDL provided to you by the external program
2. Configure an HTTP destination for the server of the web services (needed for HTTPS calls)
3. Configure the logical port for the web service using lpconfig
4. Write the abap code to call the webservice via the proxy. Works very similar to FM call in my opinion.
To expose a webservice(bapi being called from outside) you need to do a little more work
1. Create a web services for the RFC enabled function module via SE80
2. Use wsadmin and wsconfig to make the service available
3. Publish the service out to the UDDI as needed.
Once again this code is pretty well documented in the standard help and SDN. Do a simple search on ABAP proxies and you will find what you need.
Take care,
Stephen

Calling a web service in external system from SRM

Hi folks,
A web service is created in the external system and I need to access this web service from a BADI. Can you tell me how can I call this web service (the external system is giving me a URL) and how I'll get a return. Please let me know in detail.
Thanks,
Prem

Prem,
Hi. You can call the service via HTTP protocol. Pass them values (SET_DATA), and receive a response (GET_DATA), via xml/html.
In your code you would need to create the xml data to pass them, and evaluate the returned xml.
Process...
Data setup
1) Create the XML to send them
Working with the external service
2) Open the HTTP connection
2a) cl_http_client=>create_by_url (IF_HTTP_CLIENT)
2b) lr_client->authenticate
3) Call the to send them the XML
3a) lr_client->request->set_data
3b) lr_client->send
4) Call the lr_client->receive to return the response
5) Close the connection lr_client->close
Data evaluate
6) Evaluation the returned XML and process.
Hope this helps
Cheers
Rob

Hi Oliver,
I have gone through the documentation and had been able to create a proxy object, uploaded the WSDL file (from local directory) and created logical port,
However, when testing the service, I didn't received a sucess message but

Hi,
I have the same requirement and have created a new Proxy-Object, uploaded the WSDL file (locally) and Created a Logical port.
In the Logical Port under the tab Call Parameter I've defined the URL of the web-service.
Since I was not able to upload the WSDL by selecting the option URL/HTTP Destination due to error message "HTTP error (return code 400, message "ICM_HTTP_CONNECTION_FAILED")
Message no. SPRX090" so uploaded the file locally.
However, when testing the service, I didn't received a sucess message but:
<CX_AI_SYSTEM_FAULT>

Adding Proxy Servers
Use the Summary of Proxy Servers page to add and configure Proxy Server resources and make them available in Oracle Service Bus as a system resource. You must be in an active session to configure or reconfigure Proxy Server resources.
1. If you have not already done so, click Create to create a new session or click Edit to enter an existing session. See Using the Change Center.
2. Select System Administration > Proxy Servers.
3. Click Add.
4. In the Name field, enter a name for the Proxy Server resource. This is a required field.
5. In the Description field, enter a short description for the Proxy Server resource.
6. In the Host-Port Parameters section, enter the following information:
1. In the Server Host field, enter the host name or IP address of the Proxy Server. This is a required field.
The Server Host name for the Oracle Service Bus proxy server must be identical to the server host name of the actual proxy server.
2. In the Clear Text Port field, enter the Proxy Server clear-text port number.
3. In the SSL Port field, enter the Proxy Server SSL port number. You must enter either a clear text or SSL port number.
4. Click Add.
You can configure multiple Proxy Servers for each Proxy Server resource. This enables Oracle Service Bus to perform load balancing and offer fault tolerance features for the Proxy Server resource.
7. If the Proxy Server performs proxy authentication, enter a user name in the User Name field, and the associated password in the Password and Confirm Password fields.
These fields are optional, and required only if the Proxy Server is secured.
8. Click Save to create and save the Proxy Server resource in the current session.
9. To end the session and deploy the configuration to the run time, click Activate under Change Center.

Production Order and external system non-SAP

Dear Friends,
I need to send a Production Order to a external system no SAP, and upload the information back to SAP,
SAP does something standard to accomplish this task?
To send Production Order, I created an IDOC with report RCCLORD, this IDOC contains all information of a production order (AUFNR, WERKS,..) and all operations and materials. But I don't know how to process the information returned.
Also I have read some information about the interface PP-PDC, but I don't know how to use it.
Please, Can anyone tell me the best way to accomplish this task?
this is the scenario:
SAP R/3 -
> Production Order -
> External System
External System -
> Return information about Production Order -
> SAP R/3
Thanks!

Hi,
PP-PDC is for confirmations only, see further details
