Connecting to SAP

Hi There,
Does anyone know the steps needed to connect to SAP.
We are a web applications development company and we have a Client that is a SAP customer and they keep all their documentation using SAP.
We are in the process of writing an application for them but some of the content needs to come from their files held in SAP
How can we connect to SAP and extract this content.
We use Asp.Net and I have heard that there is a Dot Net Connector available. Are there any other ways of connecting using connection components available for Visual Studio 2010.
Thanks for any light you can cast on this.
Best Regards,
Steve Wilson.

Hi Steve,
There are multiple options...
In case you front-end is SharePoint: Duet Enterprise
Connect to native SAP webservices: Enterprise Services if available for the data and functionality your client requires; SAP native/proprietary BAPI webservices otherwise
BizTalk WCF LOB Adapter SDK
Thirdparty products, like Sitrion, ERPConnect, WinShuttle
You can find information links and experiences with some of them on my [http://williamvanstrien.blogspot.com]
Best regards, William.

  • HTTPs connection from SAP WebAS

    Hello,
    I have to establish a connection from SAP WebAS to an iSaSiLk server via HTTPS.
    The iSaSiLk authentication is based on client certificates.
    I've created a SSL client PSE, generated the Certificate Request, imported the certificate response and the chain of certificates associated  with no errors. When testing the connection we're getting the following error message:

    From the iSaSiLk everything seems to be OK, but on the SAP WebAS the error "none of the PSEs registered with hSsl can suffice the negotiated SSL cipher suite" is really unclear, since the cipher chosen by the iSaSiLk is one of the ciphers sent by SAP WebAS...
    Can anyone give me any suggestion?

    An iSaSiLk server "is a Java programming language implementation of the SSLv2 (client-side), SSLv3, TLS 1.0 and TLS 1.1 protocols. It supports all defined cipher suites (except for Fortezza), including all AES and PSK cipher suites. iSaSiLk implements all standard TLS extensions, comes with an easy to use API and operates on top of the IAIK-JCE Javau2122 Cryptography Extension. iSaSiLk is highly configurable and will work with any alternative JCE implementation supported by a proper provider for supplying the required cryptographic algorithms".

  • Remote Connection from SAP to MS-SQL server

    Hello Experts,
    We have been following 2 options so far and we have come across some issues
    The first Option is to call a stored procedure (this is our preferred method) which does the data transfer for us
    We have been able to test this scenario successfully from SQL Server side
    However, while calling the stored proc via native SQL from ABAP we have come across an issue which is due to SQL 2005 changes (Schema implementation and difference in the security context)
    While calling the stored procedure from the ABAP Code we have an error
                The program short dumps with runtime error DBIF_DSQL2_SQL_ERROR, exception CX_SY_NATIVE_SQL_ERROR. The database error code is 15274, and the error text is
                 "Access to the remote server     is denied because the current security context is not trusted."
    This issue is new after the SQL Server 2005.
    We are trying to resolve that.
    Secondly we have been trying the DBCON option as well as per OSS Note 323151
    We have a few things thatu2019s impacting our scenario:
    The remote servers are in a different domain
    The remote servers are located  in DIZ
    Remote server is a named instance
    Remote server has been configured with a different port than standard (1565) u2013 All Connection strings will need port in there
    The Database name starts with a numeric value
    Due a combination of factors as mentioned above the standard approach does not work
    Have any of you used this approach while connecting from SAP to MS-SQL server? Do you know of any successful methods to connect to SQL using ABAP (or not) from SAP.
    Thanks in advance,

    Yes,
    DBConnect & UDConnect.
    Works like a charm.
    We write data into a MS-SQL database via DBConnect & an ABAP program (using open sql).

  • SAP DB Connection from SAP BI on HP UNIX to MS SQL External Database

    Dear All,
    Greetings!
    I have a scenario to configure a SAP DB Connection from SAP BI System on HP UNIX 11i to the external legacy system MS SQL 2000 Enterprise for data upload. I am interested in connecting the SQL server as a Source System to the BI System.
    I read through documents mentioning about installation of a Client driver in the SAP BI System, I also downloaded the JDBC client software and tried installing the same, but the steps as mentioned Setting the CLASSPATH or connecting to the server did not work.
    Please help me in connecting the SQL Server as Source System, I would like to know in detail about the same - so kindly help me with the links to documents and guides about the same.
    Thank you
    Regards,
    Vineeth Damodar

    Short answer: this does not work.
    Long answer: To connect directly to the database you need
    - a database client for the source system
    - a database interface library for the source system
    Both of them are not available for HP-UX if the target database is SQL server --> doesn't work.
    What you can do is: add a Windows application server to your  BI system (heterogeneous installations work and are supported) and add there the database client and the database interface library.

  • Connection from SAP ERP 6 to B1i2007

    Hello,
    the test-connection between B1i and SAP is working, but when trying to test the connection from SAP to B1i, SAP gives the error mesaage that "the program is not registered".
    The B1i-System seems to be not registered in the SAP and it is only shown as "external client" (and not as registered server).
    Another problem is that in B1i we have entered as programID-name "B1iRFC" but SAP shows "tomcat5" as TP-name.
    I thought B1i would register automatically on the SAP with the name of the programm-id entered.
    Do we have to change someting in the tomcat-server or where to find the problem?
    Thank you,
    Peter

    Hello Eddy,
    thank you for your answer, but in R/3 I define a RFC-connection with a registered server programm by using the programID out of the B1i-RFCP-configuration, right?
    And when trying to make a test-connection, I got an error message that there is no registered program with this programID.
    I thought that B1i have to be registered in SAP or in the SAP-Gateway with the name of this programID.
    I think my problem is the registered server program in R/3. Where do I get this program and how to register in the R/3 gateway? Isn't the tomcat-server this program?
    Best regards,
    Peter

  • Connection from SAP to our systems involving 2 saprouters

    connection from SAP to our systems involving 2 saprouters
    we have 1 saprouter inside a dmz and another for connecting to our systems.
    we are guessing that this is possible
    SAP (sapserv2) -
    SNC----> saprouter1 (DMZ, SNC connection) -
    > saprouter2 (P * * 3200) ---> SAP1, SAP2...
    But how could we do that?
    How can we let SAP know that they need to connect to 2 saprouters instead of 1?
    The "Mantain System Data" in sap service marketplace only lets us introduce 1 saprouter.
    And how should be the saproutettab of the 2 saprouters?
    saprouter1:
    KT "p:CN=sapserv2, OU=SAProuter, O=SAP, C=DE" 000.00.00.00 *
    P * saprouter2 3299
    saprouter2:
    P * * 3200
    P * * 3600
    is that possible?
    Many thanks !!

    Hi
    As far as my experience goes with this you have to maintain both router information in oss1 tcode
    Also mention second router on the second router tab on the SMP data
    I hope it should work with that as it will automatically create router table

  • Is this possible: SNC connection from SAP GUI to SAP Router, and ...

    Hi,
    I have (stupid perhaps) question.
    Is this scenario possible:
    SNC connection from SAP GUI to SAP Router, and non-SNC connection from SAP Router to SAP System.
    I know how to set up scenario like this:
    SAP System --- (non-SNC conn) --- saprouter1 --- (SNC conn) --- saprouter2 --- (non-SNC conn) --- SAP GUI.
    Best regards,
    Marek Majchrowski

    Wolfgang,
    To be sure myself and Marek understand, can you confirm the different scenarios supported:
    Scenario 1:
    SAP GUI --- (non SNC conn) --- saprouter1 --- (SNC conn) --- saprouter2 --- (non-SNC conn) --- SAP System
    With this scenario, it would be possible for a user to logon using SAP GUI onto the SAP System, but without SAP GUI SNC.
    Scenario 2:
    SAP GUI --- (SNC conn) --- saprouter1 --- (non SNC conn) --- saprouter2 --- (SNC conn) --- SAP System
    With this scenario it would be possible to logon to the SAP System using SAP GUI, and using SNC authentication.
    Also, with this scenario the SAP GUI software and SAP System software would consider this to be similar to:
    SAP GUI -- (SNC conn) -- SAP System
    Scenario 3:
    This is the scenario mentioned by Marek in his initial question:
    SAP GUI -- (SNC conn) -- saprouter1 -- (non SNC conn) -- SAP System
    With this scenario it will not be possible to logon to SAP System using SNC, and only possible if the SAP GUI is configured to not use SNC. In other words the SNC connection between SAP GUI and saprouter1 is available, but cannot be used.
    Thanks,

  • RSA1 DB Connection from SAP BW to external SQL Server databas.

    Hello,
    I am trying to connect our SAP BW system with SQL Server Source System through DB Connect in transaction RSA1.
    Our BW system is running on Windows and MaxDB platform, therefore have I already added the latest dbmssslib.dll library to the kernel for SQL Server.
    But the connection does not work anyhow, I recieve the error "Database error -1 at CON > [DBNETLIB][ConnectionOpen (Connect()).]SQL Server does > exist or access denied." and I am quite sure that my input parameters are correct.
    Therefore I wonder if someone has run into a similar problem and what the problem could be?
    Best Regards,
    Niklas Sandstedt

    Hi,
    I am sorry that my case was assigned to wrong forum.
    That should now have been corrected, however my problem still remains unsolved in one of our systems.
    I found note 178949, which fixed the problem in one system. But even though the system setup seems to be identical, the two systems appears different.
    The following has been done for both systems:
    1. Upgraded kernel to 701 version 111 and added dbmssslib.dll and dbmssslib.pdb files
    2. Created Logical system in BD54.
    3. Tried to create DB connection in transaction DBACOCKPIT.
    In the third step, the setup fails and I receive the following error message when I test the connection:
    Database error -1 at CON > [DBNETLIB][ConnectionOpen (Connect()).]SQL Server does not > exist or access denied.
    Database error -1
    All profile parameters AL11-directories also seems to be correct in both systems, so both should find the dbmssslib.dll file.
    One issue that I see is in DBACOCKPIT, the checkbox for "SAP Systems with basis release" is unchangeble and marked. This however, I think was changed in the other system automatically when the connection was established successfully.
    Has anyone run into the same problem?
    Best Regards,
    Niklas Sandstedt

  • BO 4.0 - Database error: Unable to connect to SAP BW Incomplete logon data

    Hello Experts,
    I have enabled a 'SSO to database' between SAP BW and Business objects by referencing to the documents related to below link.
    [http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/BOBJ/HowtosetupSSOagainstSAPBWinSBOBI4.0forLDAPusers]
    I have created a universe connection with option 'use single sign on when refreshing reports at view time' and have created a universe on top of my BEx query by log-in to the universe designer tools using my LDAP account.
    Now when I run the report with either SAP account or LDAP - I am able to run a adhoc webi report on this universe and get data either through the webi rich client or via BO 4.0 Info-view/Launch Pad.
    But the issue is that when other users are trying to run webi queries on this universe either through Info-view/launch pad or rich client by log-in via LDAP Authentication - they get the below error: I have given SAP_ALL to this user for time being and also have done the necessary configuration for 'simple user format' in CMC so these user has 1 account with 3 alias definitions: Enterprise, SAP, R/3.
    Database error: Unable to connect to SAP BW server Incomplete logon data -
    If the user logs on into the BO 4.0 Info-view/launch pad or webi rich client using his SAP authentication than he is able to run and retrieve data.
    I also get a dump in the SAP BW system - I analyzed the dump in SAP BW using st22 tcode and it gives the error short text as - Incomplete logon data and run-time error -  CALL_FUNCTION_SIGNON_INCOMPL
    Desired outcome:
    I want the users to log-in to webi rich client or BO 4.0 Launch pad/Info-view using their 'LDAP'  authentication and run reports against the universe on SAP BW/BEx query without any errors or additional username/password requirements.
    Can someone please tell me if I am missing any steps/configuration and guide me to achieve the above mentioned desired result ?
    Any help in this matter would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks & regards,
    CD.

        ([http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/BOBJ/SetupofSAPSSOServiceinSAPBOBI4.0+CMC])
    2. Generate the certificate file cert.der and this cert is imported in SAP BW with STRUSTSSO2 transaction.
        ([http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/BOBJ/ImportSAPBOBI4.0certificateintoSAP+BW])
    3. BW Roles/Users have been imported into CMC.
    4. SAP Users and LDAP users are mapped/aliased with each other using the registry key method
        ([http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/BOBJ/HowtomapSAPusersandLDAPusersinSBOBI4.0+CMC])
    I haven't explicitly configured STS (Security token service) as STS is a part of Adaptive processing server (APS) and I have verified that by going to servers in CMC and then to analysis services.
    I have searched for SAP OSS notes related to my issue but couldn't find any note related to SAP BW SSO with Business objects 4.0. Most of the notes are relevant for BO XI 3.1 environments.
    Thanks & regards,

  • BO 4.0: Database error:Unable to connect to SAP BW server Incomplete logon

    Hello Experts,
    I have enabled a 'SSO to database' between SAP BW and Business objects by referencing to the documents related to below link.
    http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/BOBJ/HowtosetupSSOagainstSAPBWinSBOBI4.0forLDAPusers
    I have created a universe connection with option 'use single sign on when refreshing reports at view time' and have created a universe on top of my BEx query by log-in to the universe designer tools using my LDAP account.
    Now when I run the report with either SAP account or LDAP - I am able to run a adhoc webi report on this universe and get data either through the webi rich client or via BO 4.0 Info-view/Launch Pad.
    But the issue is that when other users are trying to run webi queries on this universe either through Info-view/launch pad or rich client by log-in via LDAP Authentication - they get the below error: I have given SAP_ALL to this user for time being and also have done the necessary configuration for 'simple user format' in CMC so these user has 1 account with 3 alias definitions: Enterprise, SAP, R/3.
    Database error: Unable to connect to SAP BW server Incomplete logon data -
    If the user logs on into the BO 4.0 Info-view/launch pad or webi rich client using his SAP authentication than he is able to run and retrieve data.
    I also get a dump in the SAP BW system - I analyzed the dump in SAP BW using st22 tcode and it gives the error short text as - Incomplete logon data and run-time error - CALL_FUNCTION_SIGNON_INCOMPL
    Desired outcome:
    I want the users to log-in to webi rich client or BO 4.0 Launch pad/Info-view using their 'LDAP' authentication and run reports against the universe on SAP BW/BEx query without any errors or additional username/password requirements.
    Can someone please tell me if I am missing any steps/configuration and guide me to achieve the above mentioned desired result ?
    Any help in this matter would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks & regards,
    CD.

    Whether your problem is solved?
    We have the same problem in BO Mobile.
    Two users from one BW-role, BO-groups; one user report is executed, another user - error incomplete logon data. In Web Intelligence both users reports succeeds.
