Data transfer - ALE or idocs and bapis
hi ,
thank you guys for the support.
i am into a data migration project.
i need the initial setup for the idocs and bapis.
i dont know anything about these so can u send me the process for the setup and the data migration process too with idocs and bapis.
i didnt understand when they asked me if we can data migrate with a ALE, is that the same as using idocs and bapis or is it a different approach.
u can send me at any inofrmation connected to my eamil addr.
i would really appreciate that.
thank you.
have a look at the links
hope they will help u

The BAPIs Create() and CreateFromData() create an instance of an SAP business object type, for example, a purchase order. These BAPIs are class methods.
Change( )
The BAPI Change() changes an existing instance of an SAP business object type, for example, a purchase order. The BAPI Change () is an instance method.
Delete( ) and Undelete( ) The BAPI Delete() deletes an instance of an SAP business object type from the database or sets a deletion flag.
The BAPI Undelete() removes a deletion flag. These BAPIs are instance methods.
Cancel ( ) Unlike the BAPI Delete(), the BAPI Cancel() cancels an instance of a business object type. The instance to be cancelled remains in the database and an additional instance is created and this is the one that is actually canceled. The Cancel() BAPI is an instance method.
Add<subobject> ( ) and Remove<subobject> ( ) The BAPI Add<subobject> adds a subobject to an existing object inst! ance and the BAPI and Remove<subobject> removes a subobject from an object instance. These BAPIs are instance methods.

Bdc to Bapi
The steps to be followed are :
1. Find out the relevant BAPI (BAPI_SALESORDER_CHANGE for VA02).
for VA01 use BAPI_SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT2
2. Create a Z program and call the BAPi (same as a Funtion module call).
2. Now, if you see this BAPi, it has
-> Importing structures.
eg: SALESDOCUMENT: this will take the Sales order header data as input.
-> Tables parameters:
eg: ORDER_ITEM_IN: this will take the line item data as input.
Note :
Only specify fields that should be changed
Select these fields by entering an X in the checkboxes
Enter a U in the UPDATEFLAG field
Always specify key fields when changing the data, including in the checkboxes
The configuration is an exception here. If this needs to be changed, you need to complete it again fully.
Maintain quantities and dates in the schedule line data
Possible UPDATEFLAGS:
U = change
D = delete
I = add
Example
1. Delete the whole order
2. Delete order items
3. Change the order
4. Change the configuration
Notes
1. Minimum entry:
You must enter the order number in the SALESDOCUMENT structure.
You must always enter key fields for changes.
You must always specify the update indicator in the ORDER_HEADER_INX.
2. Commit control:
The BAPI does not run a database Commit, which means that the application must trigger the Commit so that the changes are read to the database. To do this, use the BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT BAPI.
For further details... refer to the Function Module documentation for the BAPi.
Bapi to VB(Visual Basic)
Long back I had used the following flow structure to acheive the same.
Report -> SM59 RFC destination -> COM4ABAP -> VB.exe
my report uses the rfc destination to create a COM session with com4abap. com4abap calls the vb.exe and manages the flow of data between sap and vb exe.
You need to have com4abap.exe
If com4abap is installed you will find it in sapgui installatin directory , C:\Program Files\SAPpc\sapgui\RFCSDK\com4abap.
else refer OSS note 419822 for installation of com4abap
after making the settings in com4abap to point to the vb program and setting up rfc destination in sm59 to point to com4abap session , you can use the following function modules to call the vb code.
for setting up com4abap and rfc destination please refer to the documentation for com4abap.
Invoke NEW DCOM session
call function 'BEGIN_COM_SESSION'
exporting
service_dest = service_dest "(this will be a RFC destination created in SM59)
importing
worker_dest = worker_dest
exceptions
connect_to_dcom_service_failed = 1
connect_to_dcom_worker_failed = 2
others = 3.
call function 'create_com_instance' destination worker_dest
exporting
clsid = g_c_clsid
typelib = g_c_typelib
importing
instid = g_f_oid
exceptions
communication_failure = 1 message g_f_msg
system_failure = 2 message g_f_msg
invalid_instance_id = 3
others = 4.
call function 'com_invoke' destination worker_dest

%instid = g_f_oid
%method = 'UpdatePDF'
sntemp = g_v_const_filent
snsysid = sy-sysid

%return = g_t_pdfdetail1 "t_test
exceptions
communication_failure = 1 message g_f_msg
system_failure = 2 message g_f_msg
invalid_instance_id = 3
others = 4.
then close the com session , using
FM delete_com_instance
FM END_COM_SESSION

Different between ALE, IDOC and BAPI?
Hi Folks,
What is the different between ALE, IDOC and BAPI? and send me the following steps?
Thanks in advance.
SivaHi,
please read the below lines.
ALE
ALE is SAP proprietary technology that enables data communications between two or more SAP R/3 systems and/or R/3 and external systems. When a new enterprise resource planning (ERP) solution such as R/3 is implemented, companies have to interface the ERP system with legacy systems or other ERP systems.
ALE provides intelligent mechanisms where by clients can achieve integration as well as distribution of applications and data.
ALE technology facilitates rapid application prototyping and application interface development, thus reducing implementation time.
The ALE components are inherently integrated with SAP applications and are robust, leading to a highly reliable system.
ALE comes with application distribution/integration scenarios as well as a set of tools, programs, data definitions, and methodologies that you can easily configure to get an interface up and running.
BAPI
BAPIs provide a stable, standardized method for third-party applications and components to integrate into the Business Framework. These interfaces are being specified as part of SAP's initiative with customers, partners and leading standards organizations. Also, SAP has implemented the emerging Object Application Group (OAG) specifications with BAPIs.
Pros and Cons for both BAPI and Call Transaction
BAPI
One of the big plusses for BAPIs is that the interface and function are not supposed to change. This is a big plus when you do upgrades or hot packs because the transaction can change (format, required inputs etc) which means you then need to update the call transaction.
Some of the BAPIs are better documented and easier to use than others.
You usually need to perform the BAPI that actually does the COMMIT after you call your BAPI.
The Program coding for calling a BAPI is usually cleaner than setting up the screen flow etc for the Call Transaction.
You don't need to worry about special data circumstances interrupting the normal data flow of the screens and causing errors because of that.
BAPIs probably have better performance since they don't do the screen flow processing.
In general if the BAPI exists for the transaction you want to perform and you can figure out how to use it the BAPI is probably the best way to go.
This is just from my experience working with both BAPI and Call Transaction. I have had some very good successes with BAPIs, but very occasionally found that I could not get the BAPI to perform the update I needed.

Anki Reddy. -
Hi Experts,
I am using an idoc which is internally calling a BAPI - BAPI_ACC_DOCUMENT_POST
I need to pass data custom fields from idoc to bapi BAPI_ACC_DOCUMENT_POST .
For this in the change method of the BADI BADI_ACC_DOCUMENT, I have written the code.
The BAPI has extension2 defined in it.
The inbound idoc has a segment E1BPPAREX which has the contents like this:
STRUCTURE
VALUEPART1
VALUEPART2
VALUEPART3
VALUEPART4
How to fill the data to see whether my Zfields are getting passed?
The code in the change method of the BADI is:
DATA: WA_EXTENSION TYPE BAPIPAREX,
WA_ACCIT TYPE ACCIT,
EXT_VALUE TYPE C LENGTH 960,
L_TABIX TYPE SY-TABIX.
FIELD-SYMBOLS: <L_STRUC> TYPE ANY,
<L_FIELD> TYPE ANY.
DATA: L_REF TYPE REF TO TE_STRUC.
SORT C_EXTENSION2 BY STRUCTURE.
LOOP AT C_EXTENSION2 INTO WA_EXTENSION.
AT NEW STRUCTURE.
CREATE DATA L_REF TYPE (WA_EXTENSION-STRUCTURE).
ASSIGN L_REF TO <L_STRUC>.
ENDAT.
CONCATENATE WA_EXTENSION-VALUEPART1 WA_EXTENSION-VALUEPART2
WA_EXTENSION-VALUEPART3 WA_EXTENSION-VALUEPART4
INTO EXT_VALUE.
MOVE EXT_VALUE TO <L_STRUC>.
ASSIGN COMPONENT 'ITEMNO_ACC' OF STRUCTURE <L_STRUC> TO <L_FIELD>.
CLEAR: WA_ACCIT.
READ TABLE C_ACCIT WITH KEY POSNR = <L_FIELD> INTO WA_ACCIT.
IF SY-SUBRC IS INITIAL.
L_TABIX = SY-TABIX.
MOVE-CORRESPONDING <L_STRUC> TO WA_ACCIT.
MODIFY C_ACCIT FROM WA_ACCIT INDEX L_TABIX TRANSPORTING ZZPRDCD
ZZXXX
ZZXXX.
ENDIF.
ENDLOOP.
where ZZXXX is my custom fields.
Regards,
Sangeeta.Hi,
I donu2019t know , if I understand ur issue correctly or not.
You wanna know whether ur zfield in the extension idoc are getting fiiled thru Bapi or not?
Just go to WE19 and give any Existing idoc number realted to Document posting and fill the Extended segments with your data and execute. Befor this put a break-point in ur badi implemantation and check it.
Revrt back if any issues.

LSMW-BAPI
Step-by-Step Guide for using BAPI in LSMW
Note! The screen prints in this article are from ECC 5.0. They may differ slightly in other versions.
Introduction:
This document details the usage of BAPI in LSMW. We have used the example of migration of the purchase order data into SAP.
Pre-requisites:
It is assumed that the reader of this article has the minimum knowledge required on the Business Object, BAPI, Message Types and IDoc Types.
Step-by-Step Procedure:
Details of the BAPI used in this scenario:
Business Object: BUS2012
Method: CreateFromData
Details of Message Type and Basic IDoc Type:
Message Type: PORDCR
Basic IDoc Type: PORDCR02
Lets have a look at the BAPI first, before proceeding to the LSMW:
1. Go to Transaction BAPI
2. Click on Search Button
3. Enter the value BUS2012 and select Obj.type(Technical Object Name
4. Press ENTER
5. Following screen appears:
6. On the left side of the screen, Expand the PurchaseOrder.
7. Select PurchaseOrder and double-click on the same for details.
Building LSMW using BAPI:
1. Go to Transaction LSMW.
2. Enter the Project, Subproject and Object information and click on CREATE.
3. Enter the descriptions for Project, Subproject and Object.
4. Now select Settings à IDoc Inbound Processing
5. IDoc Inbound Processing screen appears. Enter the required details as shown below:
6. Click on Activate IDoc Inbound Processing.

Hi - I would like to build the logic in which it should accomodate the communication redundancy using serial RS-232 for Data Transfer b/w Host and RT irrespective of TCP/IP Data Transfer.
I want to do data transfer b/w host and RT through RS232 VISA portal whenever TCP/IP ethernet cable has been unplugged from the controller continuosly , it should keep on checking for TCP/IP link re-establishing also , when ever the tcp/ip link established again that time the communication should be using in that link only. This is accomplished by deploying the RT vi as execuatbale file. I made some logic regards to the above said logic , bur it was not working as much I expected.
I request you to go through the attached two VI's and let me know , what I did wrong in that,
Please do the needful.

Data transfer between SAP & Java and Vice versa using IDOC Process
Dear Experts,
We are working on one of the good requirement related to data transfer between SAP and Java software. Client requirement is, they want to transfer the data in both the ways (from SAP --> Java and Vice versa also).
In detail is, after sales order creation using one custom program loading plan details will be calculated. Once loading dates are confirmed then, user will release the sales document to transfer the data from SAP to Java using "Outbound IDOC processing". Similarly in that JAVA software some shipment details will be performed, once completed from JAVA software again details needs to be pumped back to SAP as "Inbound IDOC Processing".
For this fields are already identified from external software SAP and we are looking for the same to perform the steps in SAP.
At this stage, I need your expert opinion / feedback how to go about at this stage.
Meaning,
1. What are the customizing steps needs to be done in SAP..?
2. How to trigger the :Outbound IDOC process" once the documents are "Released" from custom transaction
3. How to create the link between SAP and JAVA to transfer the data between these 2 software
4. How to trigger the "Inbound IDOC Process" from JAVA software to SAP and how to store the data in SAP
Experts, please give your feedback in terms of reply or by sending the step by step process to fulfill this client requirement.
Thanks for your cooperation.

RameshMaybe too many open questions in the same document.
Maybe you should repost a more specific question in a technical forum.
This looks like a small project where you already know what you want, maybe you should contract a technical specialist so he proceeds to the implementation! -

IDOC and BAPI interfaces.
Hi SAP experts,
Can anydody please help me out regarding the SAP interfaces e.g. IDOC, BAPI if any other,,,,,,,,,,
Please give me some examples also.
Thanks & regards
Amar AdamHi Reddy,
Very general question, I don't think you will find the answer in one document.
BAPIs are normal function modules, with predefined input and output structures to perform standard business transactions.
IDOCs are standardised interface documents to transfer data.
Once the IDOC is read, it almost always calls a BAPI to perform the business transaction.
Therefore start with reading about BAPIs since you will definately have to master those when starting to work on interfaces.
There are hundreds of BAPIs so best is to start with a specific process, example sales order create or material master create.
Try transaction BAPI, this lists most of the BAPIs and contains excellent documentation.
Thanks for your points,

hi gurus,
what is the difference between bapi and idoc?Hi,
IDOC is a intermediate document to exchange data between two SAP Systems.
*IDocs are structured ASCII files (or a virtual equivalent).
*Electronic Interchange Document
*They are the file format used by SAP R/3 to exchange data with foreign systems.
*Data Is transmitted in ASCII format, i.e. human readable form
*IDocs exchange messages
*IDocs are used like classical interface files
IDOC types are templates for specific message types depending on what is the business document, you want to exchange.
WE30 - you can create a IDOC type.
An IDOC with data, will have to be triggered by the application that is trying to send out the data.
FOr testing you can use WE19.
how to create idoc?
*WE30 - you can create a IDOC type

BAPI
BAPI stands for Business API(Application Program Interface).
A BAPI is remotely enabled function module
ie it can be invoked from remote programs like standalone JAVA programs, web interface etc..
You can make your function module remotely enabled in attributes of Function module but
A BAPI are standard SAP function modules provided by SAP for remote access.
Also they are part of Businees Objest Repository(BOR).
BAPI are RFC enabled function modules. the difference between RFc and BAPI are business objects.
You create business objects and those are then registered in your BOR (Business Object Repository)
which can be accessed outside the SAP system by using some other applications (Non-SAP) such as VB or JAVA.
In this case u only specify the business object and its method from external system
in BAPI there is no direct system call. while RFC are direct system call.
Some BAPIs provide basic functions and can be used for most SAP business object types.
These BAPIs should be implemented the same for all business object types.
Standardized BAPIs are easier to use and prevent users having to deal with a number of different BAPIs.
Whenever possible, a standardized BAPI must be used in preference to an individual BAPI.

Difference in data transfer rates between winXP and Linux server?
Hello all,
I am using a winXP laptop to act as my server (all usb external hard drives are connected to it) but the data transfer rates can be really slow. Is Linux faster in that regard? Can a Linux based server provide faster data transfer rates?
Thanks for any help.
Bmora96Linux cannot make hardware go any faster - so if WinXP and its drivers are making optimal use of those USB drives and the USB data transfer pipe, Linux will not make it faster. (but installing Linux and going Tux are always excellent ideas that need no real reason either ;-) )
Real question you should be asking is if using a notebook in a server role is wise thing to do? -
Data Transfer using LSMW IDOC processing with multiple segments
we need to post the document data (Header structure, BP item structure, G/L item structure..etc) using LSMW IDOC processing.
is it possible to transfer data for all these structures (Segments) in single file?Thanks for the reply.
I am assuming when we are specifying the file in LSMW we are going to give the option to generate the file with include all structures.
could you please elaborate further is there any thing specific we need to do while configuring LSMW to get the file for all segments in the IDOC with field names which we are going to populate with data, so that we can use it for data transfer.
any help document will be helpful. -
I recently purchased a MacBook Pro and transferred data from my MacBook using Migration Assistant via Ethernet cable. I was confused about consolidating my accounts, so I continued to use my old MacBook. Can I now update the data transfer using the same process and begin using my new MacBook Pro exclusively? How do I consolidate my existing accounts?
Thank you.Of course. It does everything it did before Yosemite. You just won't be able to send or receive SMS messages with it.
