Create and Send Bid Invitation

Hello,
Newbie here, so thanks in advance for any help. We are in design phase and trying to figure out what's feasible or not. We want to automatically create a bid (RFQ) from an approved SC item. We then want to send this bid (RFQ) to our middleware (egate). Here are my questions:
(1) Can I create a bid in SAP EBP from the SC item, without setting up the Bidding Engine?
(2) Is creation of bid in SAP EBP, the same concept in R/3 backend, that is, I can view it via ME43 and it's stored in EKKO?
(3) Found several FM, what is the diference between BBP_PD_BID_CREATE and BAPI_BIDEC_CREATE? Which one should I use for our purpose in (1) above?
(4) Then, there is the BADI, BBP_CREAT_RFQ_IN_DPE...this seems to be a user-exit connected with the Bidding engine, allowing the developer to change the bid?
(5) How can I send the bid (RFQ) automatically to the middleware within SAP EBP in XML format? Is this feature available in one of the FM in (3) above?
Thank you.
Regards,
Irene

Hi Irene Yu,
Good Quesitons. I will try to answer what i can.
1. You can create a Bid Inv in SAP EBP from the SC item. You do not set up Bidding Engine separately. It is part of EBP, you just need to enable the Sourcing/Bidding transactions, Assign Roles and Authorizations.
It is LAC, SUS, CCM, those are setup separately.
2. Creation of bid in SAP EBP, One part of RFQ functions, as the same concept in R/3 backend, but have much features than what you do in R/3.
3. The diference between BBP_PD_BID_CREATE and BAPI_BIDEC_CREATE.
BBP_PD_BID_CREATE is used as parf of Bidding Functions, not an interface.
BAPI_BIDEC_CREATE is an interface. You are trying to create Bid Invitation from external system, you should consider this interface.
4. Yes, there is the BADI, BBP_CREAT_RFQ_IN_DPE...this seems to be a user-exit connected with the Bidding engine, allowing the developer to change the bid inviatation in the background, Like other Doc Change Methods in BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI.
5. How can I send the bid (RFQ) automatically to the middleware within SAP EBP in XML format? Is this feature available in one of the FM in (3) above? - I am sorry i do not understand this question.

Jay

Hi,
We are running on SRM 5.0(SP6) using the C-folder Add-on component

Hi Disha,
I am trying to configure Cfolders (4.0) as an Add on on SRM 5.0 in same client and I am getting short dump.
Could you please indicate config steps that you went through?
Do we need an RFC Destination?
Do we need a user with RFC Destination? if yes what are required roles?
Do we have to indicate RFC destination when defining backend system?
Do we have to maintain "Stipulate RFC Destination for CFolders"?
Do we need to specify any URL or area?

Create and send EDM using Adobe MUSE and Business Catalyst.

There is just one thing missing in my armour as a graphic designer – creating and sending EDMs.
Given the success of creating websites using Adobe Muse, an EDM functionality would be a fantastic addition to MUSE and Business Catalyst (BC). Imagine this:
1. I open Adobe Muse.
2. I select "New EDM" (instead of "New Site").
3. I design and build my EDM to spec.
4. I test my EDM using 'Preview' or a single send to myself.
5. I publish my EDM to Business Catalyst.
6. In BC, I review my EDM and add 'FROM NAME', 'FROM EMAIL ADDRESS' and 'SUBJECT'.
7. I import my database.
8. I hit SEND!
After my EDM has gone out, I can review a report in BC - just like any report for a website.
As a designer that does not know code but can build a website using MUSE - creating an EDM is the one thing I can't personally offer. Using a digital supplier can be expensive and website like Mail Chimp aren't professional enough.
To the Adobe Muse team, please – for the love of humanity – consider this as viable addition to MUSE. You will save a lot of heart ache and win a lot of hearts.
Thanks,
Phil

Done!

Thanks for reply glen.
I have added delegate using Add-MailboxPermissions. Now i am able to save an email in mailbox owner drafts
folder.
Glen,
I have a one more question.(I am using EWS Managed API).
I(owner) have shared my calendar(eg. samplecalenderfolder) with another user(delegate) (i.e.,he is the
delegate of my mailbox) and i have given only permission to the this folder(samplecalenderfolder)
only and the permission level is Reviewer.
if i login with user(i.e.delegate) i am not able to get the shared calendar folders(i.e.,samplecalenderfolder)
that what i a have shared.
below is the code snippet i am using to get the calendar folders.
Folder folder = Folder.Bind(service,WellKnownFolderName.Calendar);
FindFoldersResults addtionalFolders = service.FindFolders(folder.Id, new FolderView(10));
could you please tell us how to get the shared calendar folders.

How do I create, and send a group email on my iPhone?

How do I create, and send a group email from my iPhone 4?

How to send group email without additional APP
Just spent an hour on ichat. Long and short....can't send group email. The group name appears in the TO: line, but if you click on the group name, only the first email address is blue..the rest are black and will not get the email. We tired using the CC and BC lines...same result.
However here is one solution:
I sent one email with each of the group (we are only 9 ) in the TO: line. I included my primary email. When it came to the iphone, i moved it to one of the subfolders. (Each account you may have has a list of the inbox at the top and Account at the bottom. ... that is where you can access the subfolder)
I moved the email with all names to that subfolder. I can then, open it ...do a relpy to all and just change the message and subject line. It is cumbersome, but it does work. I really think Apple, a company committed to ease of use, needs to review this flaw. I suspect it may be a bandwidth economy .... and i feel the pain of the providers...but you did create the beast.

Create and send workitem

Hi all,
I want to create an workitem without using workflow and send that workitem to the specified-user inbox. Any FM(Function Module) available for that. Can anyone help me with this because its urgent.
Regards,
Ramesh
Edited by: Ramesh Vinay on Sep 20, 2008 10:35 AM

Hi,
As Arghadip was telling, for creating a witem, you need either a wflow template or atleast a single-step task with a triggering event. But, for creating a task that doesn't need the user action, it has to be a NON DIALOG task and i'm not sure if your BO has that task, coz your single-step task should use a method of the BO.
Instead of sending a Notif. to the Wflow folder, if you send a mail, it'll go to the DOCUMENTS folder which also serves the similar purpose. Ofcourse, you can Delete the mails in the Documents Folder.
Hope you got what i just said although I'm not sure if my explanation will suffice your requirement.
Goodluck

Issues with creating and sending BOM XML IDOC to SAP using 2010 WCF-SAP Adapter (without using Biztalk Server)

I'm trying to replace an existing Biztalk 2006 Send BOM IDOC process, and completely remove Biztalk server from the equation. The existing Bizatalk 2006 server receives an input BOM (Bill of Materials) flat file, and using a Biztalk Map (BM08),
and Orchestration, generates an Idoc and sends it to SAP.
In my replacement C# program, I'm using the 2010 WCF-SAP Adapter, and am trying to generate the BOMMAT03 XML IDOC it to SAP.
I generated the BOMMAT03 schema from SAP using the Add Adapter Service in VS 2010. I was able to generate a BM08 XSLT from the existing BMO8 map in the current Biztalk 2006 process. I am able to run a XSLT transform on the input BOM flat
file, and generate an XML file from that.
However, I've run into a few issues. First of which, is that the XML file that is generated from the XSLT transform is NOT the same schema as the BOMMAT03 schema expects. It's somewhat similar, but different enough that I have to manually
translate between the two in my code. I've verified that both the original Bitztalk 2006 process and my replacement program use BOMMAT V3 from SAP. Question--Is Biztalk 2006 server doing some other magic to turn that transormed XML into the BOMMAT03
schema?
I ended writing code which translates the transformed XML into the BOMMAT03 schema (which is a strong typed XML IDOC at this point).
However, when I try to send the BOMMAT03 XML IDOC, I get an exception "Object reference not set to an instance of an object."
idocClient.Send(idocData, ref sadapterTxGuid);
idocData is of type BOMMAT03, and I've verified that the various fields are populated.
Any help is appreciated.

Well, putting in a MSDN subscription support ticket for Biztalk server actually helped with the issue. They didn't find, or fix the issue directly. But one of the examples (https://randypaulo.wordpress.com/tag/idoc/) they sent over, jogged my
memory, and I realized in the code snippet below, I had accidentally deleted the 1st line. Such a simple mistake, yet was easy to overlook. The URL example is almost EXACTLY like my code, but without the transform and translation code to convert
from input XML file to IDOC XML. If someone is interested in that, let me know.
//Forgot the 1st line.
idocClient = new IdocBOMMAT03SIEIS_WED_BOMMAT03V3R700Client(binding, endpointAddress);
idocClient.Send(idocData, ref sadapterTxGuid);
For anyone else interested in knowing, you CAN send a strongly typed IDOC to SAP using C#.NET and the WCF SAP 2010 Adapter, using the IDOC Binding Client class you generated using the Add Adapter Service Reference in VS2010.
The one difference, which no one, not even the tech support from MS could tell me, was why the XSLT which I generated from the original map, did not transform the input BOM XML into the BOMMAT03 XML. Instead, it transformed it into an intermediate
XML, which resembled the BOMMAT03 IDOC XML, but still needed to be translated to the BOMMAT03 IDOC format.
The tech support person swore up and down that it should. But I believe that something happens in Biztalk server, after the Mapping occurs, maybe in the Pipeline, which converts that
intermediate XML into the final BOMMAT03 IDOC XML format.
I do think that the examples are severely lacking in showing how to send a strong typed IDOC using C# and the WCF-SAP Adapter. Even worse, the examples are completely lacking in how to actually generate a weakly typed IDOC. They show how to send
that weakly typed IDOC, but show me, or give me a class to be able to generate it.
I realize that this is not quite the "recommended way" to do it, but in reality, not everyone wants or even needs a full Biztalk installation. For some simple stuff like this, a C#.NET program and WCF-SAP adapter do the trick.

How do I create and send a zip file? I have Lion and I'm working in Word for mac

To show you how little I know about any of this, I don't even know if this is the correct forum in which to ask this question. I'm a copywriter. I have a client in France. I have 15 word documents, 15 of the same documents in PDFs and a small Excel document to send him. Simple, mutlipage Word docs. Short two-page Excell sheet. I want to create a zip file for them to send to him. Can I do it? How? I have unzipped zip files other people have sent to me, but I've never created or sent one myself. I'm working in Word for Mac 2011. I have Lion. I'm using Mac's email. Please don't assume I know anything. I need very, very simple, play by play instructions. You are all very helpful, so I have high hopes.
Nancy

Visit:
http://download.cnet.com/MacZip/3000-2250_4-10025248.html
You will be able to both zip and unzip. If the recipient of your zipped file does not have zip, he/she will need to get it, or you could send him/her the above address so that he/she can unzip his/her file.
(I wish the English language could settle on the use of something less clumsy that he/she him/her etc.)
BTW, I think that you can zip only folders, not separate files, so put even one file into a folder before zipping).

Create and send file to front-end for download.

Hi,
In a nutshell I need to give users the possibility to download the contents of a table as a CSV file.
From what is understood, this would happen like this:
1)loop over the context node and write a file (table.csv) with the contents of each cell separated with a semi-colon. (or is there an API available to write the contents of an entire node/table)
2)send this file to the front-end so that a file download automatically begins and user can save it on the hard-disk.
Has someone done this before? If so, is it possible to share the code?
As usual, big points will be awarded.
Thanks!

Hi faB,
Refer "Exporting Context Data into Excel Using the Web Dynpro Binary Cache" by Bertram Ganz. This document will be very much helpful for you in exporting the context data into excel.
You can get the sample code and corresponding documentation from the following link

https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/library/webas/webdynpro/tutorial on excel export using the web dynpro binary cache - 34.htm
You can also use HSSF API for exporting the context data into excel

My question is, how can i know if this report have a batch-job in background or not??
I want to know if their is existing any job for this report???
OTHER QUESTION, is:
Is it possible to create a job for a Query-Report that is sending email in background??

Hi ETN_58,
in transaction SM37 you can look for jobs for a specific report using field "ABAP program name".
when you create a job in transaction SM36 you have a button for "Spool list recipient". Fill it out to distribute the spool generated by the jog to a distribution list or an email.
