Calling SAP interface from APEX

Hi,
Our application is in APEX.(APEX & ORACLE 10G )
We have a requirement, where we need to fetch and update the data in SAP.
How can I do the above using APEX.
Thanks in advance...
Regards,
Sreekanth

Sreekanth,
While I don't know the specifics, you should be able to call the SAP BAPIs from PL/SQL - in APEX, you can use a PL/SQL process to achieve this.
Thanks,

Calling SAP scripts from WEBDYNPRO

Hi
We need to call SAP scripts from WebDynpro application. As per my understanding we need to do following steps
Create a new RFC function module and create sap script output in PDF format.For this
    - use OPEN_FORM , by assigning TDGETOTF='X' in the Options(Structure
      ITCPO).
    - call function module CLOSE_FORM with option OTFDATA
    - convert OTF data to PDF by using function module CONVERT_OTF_2_PDF
Now I would like to know how to display the PDF string from WebDynpro.
Please help....

Hi,
You can call by creating external window method.
create LINK to URL or LINK TO ACTION according to requirement, for this. write code in onaction of that.
data: iv_url type string value 'http://<server>:<port>/sap/bc/gui/sap/its/webgui?~transaction=*se38 RS38M-PROGRAMM=rsparam;DYNP_OKCODE=SHOP'.
data: api_component type ref to if_wd_component,
          window_manager type ref to if_wd_window_manager,
          window type ref to if_wd_window.
api_component = wd_comp_controller->wd_get_api( ).
window_manager = api_component->get_window_manager( ).
window = window_manager->create_external_window(
                 url = iv_url
                 modal = abap_false ).
window->open( ).

Calling SAP Transaction from BSP

I wonder whether it is possible to call SAP transaction from BSP application and pass to it some data; e.g., PO# when calling VA02?
The called transaction could appear in a separate MS IE Window (like in some Portal applications) or in SAP GUI.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thank you in advance

I have launched the Java SAPGui from BSP pages before. I used SNC so that the users were logged on via Single Sign On. I store the Java Gui in the Mime directory. You can force the startup transaction. Theorectically you could also Gui Scripting to try and control the Gui and force in the default value for your PO field. I have not tried that however. You will probably want to check the Service Marketplace for documents on the Gui Scripting. The following is the code from my BSP page to launch the Java Gui in the Browser as an applet:

Can I call an interface from java

Dear All,
Can I call an interface from java in ODI ?
Best Regards
Arc

Short answer, Yes.
Long answer - you must create a scenario from the interface (the scenario is the "executable" code), right-mouse-button on the interface in the tree and "Generate Scenario". This can then be called using the invocation api this is documented in your <installationdirectry>/oracledi/doc/sdk/invocation. This points you at all the necessary classes etc to use.

Calling a Macro from APEX

Hi all,
after seeking on the forum and internet, I'm writing you my goal to see if you can guide/help me.
I'm using APEX 3.2 for uploading some excel sheets. After looking for info, we figured out that xls cannot be uploaded, so we asumed we need to upload the files in CSV format. The problem is that the user does not want to go every time they want to upload a file to "Save as...CSV", so we decided to do a macro in Excel that will change the format for him.
So, my goal is to run this macro from the APEX app right before the user uploads the file, the most invisible way for the user as possible.
The flow would be something like this:
Load the page of the application.
Run the macro from javascript maybe??
Change the format in local drive of the user, from XLS to CSV.
The user will use the file browser in the app and choose the CSV format from his local drive and upload it.
Has anyone have any ideas on how to do this? I have tried calling a batch from apex that creates a file, but I get a permission error, I guess because of security issues.
Thanks a lot!

You can NOT call an Excel macro directly from APEX.. Reason being the browser PROTECTS you from malicious code that COULD be run on your local machine this way..
Here is a Windows command script that your user can run, or you can setup to run every night for them.. Change the getfolder call with the proper directory..
Dim oFSO
Dim oShell, oExcel, oFile, oSheet
Set oFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set oShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
Set oExcel = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
oExcel.DisplayAlerts = False
For Each oFile In oFSO.GetFolder("C:\").Files
If LCase(oFSO.GetExtensionName(oFile)) = "xls" Then
    With oExcel.Workbooks.Open(oFile, 0, True, , , , True, , , , False, , False)
      For Each oSheet In .Worksheets
        oSheet.SaveAs ".\" & oFile.Name & "." & oSheet.Name, 6
      Next
      .Close False, , False
    End With
End If
Next
oExcel.Quit
oShell.Popup "Conversion complete", 10Thank you,

Regarding tutorial of how to call Oracle Reports from APEX

Hi,
I'm trying to call Oracle Reports from APEX using this tutorial.
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/howtos/howto_integrate_oracle_reports.html
But in the step of 'Create the Oracle HTML DB Application', 'OE' doesn't appear in the LOV of Existing Schema, even though the sample schema exists in the schema and they are unlocked. And when I type 'OE' directly without using LOV, and press Next, the message 'Schema is reserved or restricted' appears.
How can I create the workspace based on OE schema?

Hello Shohei,
I know your following the tutorial, but if you want to call oracle reports from apex it is quite easy though if your working with oracle reports 9i or higher. Just create an html region and put in the source the html code for referencing an url like to_report
Or reference the same url from a button placed on the HTML region
(you can create a package that would create the whole URL and returns it as a string, easier for scalability)
Hope this can help you to (tutorial is good but try and learn from scratch is also good ;-) )

How to call Oracle Reports from APEX

Dear All,
I am new to APEX. My first job assignment is "calling oracle reports from apex".
Can any one help me on this? Is there any online examples / tutorials from OTN site?
TIA.

Hi Joe,
the how-to is still valid for APEX 3.0. Calling an Oracle Report from APEX is still the same, it's basically the URL you build for the report call and Oracle Reports hasn't changed that format.

Calling shell script from apex application

Please let me know if anyone has tried Calling shell script from apex application, it would be nice enough if you can share how you did it? Thanks

Hi,
Requirements
* CREATE JOB (10g Rel.1)
* CREATE EXTERNAL JOB (10g Rel.2 / 11g)
* EXECUTE on dbms_scheduler (granted to public by default)
Since Oracle 10.2.0.2 the commands are executed as user nobody.
Code:
--Create a Program for dbms_scheduler
exec DBMS_SCHEDULER.create_program('RDS2008','EXECUTABLE','c:\ WINDOWS\system32\cmd.exe /c echo 0wned >> c:\rds3.txt',0,TRUE);
--Create, execute and delete a Job for dbms_scheduler
exec DBMS_SCHEDULER.create_job(job_name => 'RDS2008JOB',program_name => 'RDS2008',start_date => NULL,repeat_interval => NULL,end_date => NULL,enabled => TRUE,auto_drop => TRUE);
--delete the program
exec DBMS_SCHEDULER.drop_program(PROGRAM_NAME => 'RDS2008');
--Purge the logfile for dbms_scheduler
exec DBMS_SCHEDULER.PURGE_LOG;
This is one way as suggested by Trent.
We can also achieve as follows.

Calling ASP script from APEX button passing Bind variable

I am looking for some examples or best form for calling asp script from apex button that will pass apex bind variable to asp script to process.
Thanks,s
Bob

I am surprised by the degree of no replies. I have solved this by using asp redirects such as:
Response.Redirect("test.aspx?UserName="&user)
My formulated solution contains a page with a manually built interactive report. I have a number of bind variables at the top of the reoprt where users can query the information they want based on desginated database columns for this particular report. Once they have the "manual" interactive report displaying what they want, they click a button where a asp script is called with parameters passed that calls a Java based Crystal Reports plugin with the called correspnding report displayed with passed parameters.
Works like a charm!
This solves our reporting needs without having to resort to Bi Publisher (much too expensive) and other third party applications that kinda indicate it can work with apex but provide limited help or best form for doing so.

Calling SAP transaction from WebDynpro

HI,
Could someone post a link as to how I may call a SAP transaction from a webdynpro.
Will this be an external call to R/3 or can i get it embedded in my dynpro.......
Tnks..

Hi,
You can call by creating external window method.
create LINK to URL or LINK TO ACTION according to requirement, for this. write code in onaction of that.
data: iv_url type string value 'http://<server>:<port>/sap/bc/gui/sap/its/webgui?~transaction=*se38 RS38M-PROGRAMM=rsparam;DYNP_OKCODE=SHOP'.
data: api_component type ref to if_wd_component,
          window_manager type ref to if_wd_window_manager,
          window type ref to if_wd_window.
api_component = wd_comp_controller->wd_get_api( ).
window_manager = api_component->get_window_manager( ).
window = window_manager->create_external_window(
                 url = iv_url
                 modal = abap_false ).
window->open( ).
