Capture keystroke from the SAP Business One Desktop

Does anyone know how I can capture a keystroke from the SAP Business One “Desktop” with the UI API?
Basically, open the B1 Client, then click the mouse in the back ground beside the main menu so that the cursor is “nowhere” (not in the search field). Now set some code In the KeyDown event to catch any keystrokes. Nothing happens. The event is not called. I even tried using SetWindowsHookEx API function but never got it to work with an SDK project since there is no form hHandle. Woudlnd even work once I gave the hhandle of the B1 Client

Hi Marc,
what is your exact requirement ?
I don't think you can specificly catch a key down in the background - but only because it is not possible to "lose" main menu as active form ( only if you close it -> then search field is active ).
So basically you have to find a logic where you can catch *your* keydown on any form.
Be aware of the fact, that keydown won't let you catch all keys / key combinations.
I had an equal requirement some time ago and after a lot of experimenting ( windows global hook wouldn't work reliable ) I ended up using SBO key shortcuts ( F2-F12 ) and their menu events.

Maik

We are exporting data to the SAP Business one. Error: "The field is too small to accept the data you attempt to add. try inserting or pasting less data"

Hi,
I have exported the data from two sources, MS-Excel and SAP Business One to Sap Business One (8.81). While exporting the data, I got the error "The field is too small to accept the data you attempt to add. try inserting or pasting less data" for the first time, Immediately when I run it again, it shows export successfully completed, but nothing is changed in the SAP Business One. Could you please provide the solution as early as possible?

How to capture carriage return in SAP Business One?

Hi guys,
I am using C# for developing a plug-in for SAP business one 2005, I tried to use '\n' to capture carriage return in some fields that are stored in SQL server 2005, but it didn't work. I tried the same code in a C# windows application and it worked. I just want to know that if the carriage return in SAP has a special sequence code for that or not.
The code I tried is "
string s = "something";
if (s.contains('\n'))
//do something;
Thanks a lot

Hi,
I guess you did a typo: Chr(9) is TAB... I think you meant Chr(10).

Credit Note in SAP Business One

Hi All,
We want to reimburse some of the customer promotional expenditure ( e.g. trade scheme operated in the market, distribution expenditure undertaken, display given etc ) in form of credit or we want make credit entry for the same reason to the customer which should be adjusted with subsequent sales in future.
But we could not find above facility in SAP Business One.
You are aware that the credit note issuing is a regular process adopted by all companies and is quite common in FMCG business. We want that each and every single credit note has to be documented in the system and reconciled against each party's claims .
Please help us with a proper solution for the process of system generated Credit Note as that will help us a lot.
Regards
Arindam

Hi Arindam,
To access the credit note module window from the SAP Business One Main Menu, choose Sales u2013 A/R A/R Credit Memo. Also make sure that you have the credit note option selected in the main menu form settings. Also please check that you have the right permissions and license assigned to the user performing this function.
For legal reasons, you cannot change or delete a delivery or invoice that you enter in SAP Business One. However, the customer might send the goods back for various reasons, or you may have made a mistake when you entered the documents.
If a sales transaction for which you record an accounting and an inventory posting has been completely or partially reversed, you must enter a corresponding sales document to clear it. This document reverses the changes in terms of stock quantities and monetary values.
The credit memo is the clearing document for the invoice and for the returns. If the goods were delivered to the customer and an invoice has already been created, you can partially or completely reverse the transaction by creating a credit memo. With the credit memo y
ou correct both the quantities and the monetary values. The system increases the stock of the credited items by the amount specified in the credit memo. The credit memo credits the value in the customer account in the Accounting system and amends the revenue account by the same amount. The system corrects the tax amounts automatically.
SAP Business One enables you to create an A/R credit memo with a zero amount. You can do this when you clear A/R invoices for items delivered without a charge, for example, for items that are part of a promotion or covered by a service contract.
Hope this helps.
Kind regards,
Matt

Loading data from SAP Business One to BW

We need to load data from several SAP Business One databases to BW. I find some special objects for SAP Business One in the Business Content
And a short description in Help:
The source for the data upload is a file system. The relevant files can be generated using the views provided within the SAP Business One database.
May be someone has an experience in this area or could advise documentation about this
May be better to use DB-connect?
Thanks for your help

Hello Elena,
I am just curious if you've found answer to your question how to extract data fron BusinessOne into SAP/BI? What can we use? Only flat files or there are some standard extractors exists? Or have you used DB Connect for that?
Thank you,

Synchronisation of contacts from Outlook to SAP Business One

Dear all,
i have installed the Outlook Integration Add-On and want to synchronize Contacts from SAP Business One to Outlook and this worked fine. Now I also wanted to synchronize contacts from Outlook to SAP Business One (changes and new Contacts) and I activated the check box for this in the settings. But after I run the synchronisation nothing happened, even the contact folder has been selected in the Contacts - MS Outlook Criteria settings. Do I have to do something else?

Crystal Reports background processing for SAP Business One 8.8

Dear Partners,
I have an SDK program developed in SAP Business One SDK that works in 2007, it calls crystal reports externally and can be executed as a background task using the windows schedular or from the command prompt.
My problem is it does not work under SAP Business One SDK 2008 PL18 with SQL Server 2008, Visual Studio 2008.
I receive the following message after this line in my code,"oReport.PrintToPrinter(CopyNo, False, 0, 0)".
'CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.LogOnException: Logon failed.
Error in File XX_Report_Ver_0.01 {1A6620A2-5D73-49D2-9347-32ED068AA64E}.rpt:

My Question is what Crystal Reports libraries or other method should I be using ?
Crystal Reports 2008 for SAP Business One eg. 51038978.zip - downloaded from portal obviously dosn't contain the CrystalDecisions libraries.
Crystall Reports 2008 - cr2008_sp3_fullbuild, cr2008fp33.exe, cr2008fp33_mm, cr2008fp33_clickonce - also download from the portal, the cr2008_sp3_fullbuild does contain the crystal decisions libraries.
Finally other choices are crystal reports included with the visual studio 2008 and crystal reports full version direct from Business Objects.
I have tried different versions of crystal decision libraries- eg, 12.0110 or 12.02 but still no joy.
Also if I manage to get the report to fire what should the client be running eg, if they have the Crystal Reports 2008 for Business One do they also need to install the Crystal Reports Run time - cr2008fp33_clickonce.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi John
Since the SDK works in 2007 it will be using the OLD DB access method.
Change the Crystal report to use an OLE DB datasource rather than the SAP Business One data source.

Rob

SAP BUSINESS ONE 8.8 + 64-Bit-Edition von Office 2010

Hallo Leute,
gibts da schon Neuigkeiten, ob B1 und Office 2010 64-Bit zusammen spielen können?
Funktioniert der Export nach Excel überhaupt noch?
Vielen Dank
Grüße, Lukasz.

Hallo Lukasz,
Alle Platformen, die mit B1 benutzt werden koennen, sind in SMP unter 'Product Availability' angezeigt:

According to Microsoft® Corp., Microsoft Office 2010 by default installs the 32-bit version even if your computer is running 64-bit editions of Windows.
Before upgrading from earlier Microsoft Office versions, make sure you carefully read the Microsoft Office 2010 System Requirements as stipulated by Microsoft Corp. (1)
Supported as of 2007 A SP01 PL13, 2007 B PL22, and 8.8 PL17.
For the time being, the SAP Business One release tracks 2007 and *8.8 only support the 32-bit version of the Microsoft Office 2010 editions.

SAP Business One v8.8 (PL12) - Upgrading

Hello Forum
this is my first post so apologies....
I am trying to establish a SAP B1 v8.8 test environment on a 'offline' server. I am encountering 2 issues when installing/upgrading...
Original environment:
         HP ProLiant Server
         5gb RAM
         Windows 2003 R2 Enterprise Server
         (Service Packed and Updated from Windows Update)
Firstly,
    SAP Server Tools / Server / Client will all install using a base of PL05, I can then upgrade this to PL10 (both of which were supplied by our Partner) - I operated on this PL level for a week or so with no trouble what so ever. Later I recieved PL12 on a disc from our Partner and went through the upgrade process from PL10 to PL12.
   This failed showing 'Creatordll.DLL' error straight away when the process started to upgrade the SBO-COMMON database. I could see the Server Tools get upgraded first and then the SBO-Common database getting backed up and as soon as this has completed the error happens. The upgrade then rolls back (Restores) the SBO-Common and then stops advising also that the Server Tools will need a manual restoration.
   MS Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable Package was the only reference that I could find on SDN so I followed the instructions here.
Amended environment:
         HP ProLiant Server
         5gb RAM
         Windows 2008 Enterprise Server
         (Updated from Windows Update)
Secondly,
   When attempting to troubleshoot this problem, the directory "C:\Program Files\SAP\SAP Business One Server " has only the B1_SHR available in Windows Explorer. When I check this against our LIVE environment using SAP B1 2007a the same directory has "B1_SHR \ DI API \ SAP Business One DI API \ B1iServer \ B1iSetup" listed.
When in the PL05 or PL10 environments SAP operates perfectly fine despite the fact that there is no other directories showing here. The base install and upgrade to PL10 completed without error so I had no need to investigate the SAP Business One directory until PL12 failed.
I'm hoping that someone in the Forums can help me out with these issues.
Thanks

Hi Garry,
I would suggest you to download the latest installation package on 8.8 PL10 which is available on the Service Market Place. In order to solve the issue with 'Creatordll.DLL' please follow the steps from the Note [1408662|https://websmp130.sap-ag.de/sap(bD1odSZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/sapnotes/index2.htm?numm=1408662]. Issue could be caused due to missing Microsoft ATL security patch.
hope it helps,

SAP Business One 9 on HANA - AddOn "AddOnName" Installation Failed

Hi,
I'm trying to install an add-on in a SAP Business One 9 on HANA (64 bits) but i'm facing a problem:
- The add-on installation (from the add-on Manager Form) on windows finish correctly, but after a few seconds the system shows a Message box with "Please wait for add-on installation to finish .....Select Yes if installation finished succesfully, otherwise select No" . After that (YES option selection) the system shows "AddOn [AddOnName]: Installation Failed"
The making of the .ard file (AddOn registration file) was the same that the generation of .ard file for the SAP Business One 9 for SQL Server (here the addon works correctly). The only difference was the replacement of the DI API dll, UI API dll, AddOnRegGenerator and the AddOnInstalAPI.
Please Help!..
Thanks...

Hi,
When generating the ard file for the installer, there is a property that defines whether the addon is a 64bit addon.

Cannot reinstall SAP Business One 32 Bit Client program

Hi Everyone,
I started with a computer which had SAP Business One Clients (32 & 64 Bit versions) installed, along with the DTW (Data Transfer Workbench). I have since uninstalled both Business One clients, and am now wanting to reinstall the 32 Bit Client (only).
When I double click on the Setup.exe file I am presented with the message below -
I don't understand why I am presented with this message given that I have uninstalled the software.
In addition to uninstalling the software through the Windows (7) Control Panel, I have also manually deleted all files and folders related to Business One (using a Windows Search), with the exception of those files related to the DTW, and finally deleted all TEMP files.
If I click on Cancel the setup stops, but if I click on OK I see the following -
When I click on OK, above, I see the following -
What can I do now to fully remove all traces of the previous Client installations so that I can reinstall the 32 Bit Client?
Any advice will be greatly appreciated.
Kind Regards,
David

Hi Everyone,
Firstly I now have an 'S-User ID', so I have access to SAP Resources.
Secondly, thank you Sridharan for posting the information to this thread, it is a great help (particularly given that I wasn't sure how long it would take my provider to organise an S-User ID).
Thirdly; these are the actions I have taken - none have helped!
Attempted installation in the 'hidden' Windows Administrator account
http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/enable-the-hidden-administrator-account-on-windows-vista/
THE FOLLOWING COME FROM THE OFFICIAL SAP 'FIX' (as shown above in Sridharan's post)
1). Tried both points, a), and b), in the InstallShield link -
http://consumerdocs.installshield.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=Q108474&sliceId=1
However I could not proceed with point 3), because by my reckoning the SAP Business One Client that I am using relies upon Installshield 17 (and there is no link available for this version!).
If I am incorrect about the above can somebody please let me know which version of Installshield was used, and I will then return to point c) of the Installshield 'Q108474' link.
2). Microsoft C++ 2005 is not installed on the computer.
3). Registry entries did not exist, and I am going to assume where removed when I performed a registry clean with Registry Mechanic (before posting this thread).
I have downloaded a trial version of Installshield Enterprise, and I am hopeful that it will contain a version 17 driver file, in which case I will return to 'Q108474'.
In the meantime however if anybody has any further suggestions can you please post?
I really don't want to reinstall Windows just because one program will not load.
Kind Regards,
David
