ECC user licenses issue for using Webdynpro ABAP in portal

Hi all,
If we want to use Webydnpro ABAP in our external facing portal which is being used by more than 20000 users, how do we manage the ECC licenses for all these users? It will be really expensive to have that many number of licenses in ECC (one for every portal user). Is there any other work around for this?
Any info on this will be beneficial.
Thanks,
Hari

I am not sure why you want to use WebDynpro for External Portal . As Webdynpro is resource intensive ,  I never saw client asking for this type of  requirement. Are developing any prototype ?
In my experience ABAP webdynpro is more is used more for business packages and  internal portals  not for external portals. If you want to use this AWD for EEP  Please see below link from SAP Help for pre-requisites
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/96/bdab419451db34e10000000a1550b0/content.htm
Last Step in above Link, this mentions that ABAP Webdynpro needs logon.
As other people mentioned there might be a good way of doing if you contact your SAP account executive to find out if there are any different types of licenses. But you end up in taking other extra licences which not acceptable solution for clients.
If you want to use WebDynpro for external Portal ( which is not at all suggested for external ) at any cost , better to go with Web Dynpro for Java which will not need any extra  licences on R3.

  • How to save User input into DB using webdynpro abap

    Hi,
    Im trying to create an application using webdynpro abap.
    I want to know how to save the data input by user, into a database table.
    In my UI, I have a table control which is editable and user inputs data into this. I need to know how i can transfer this data to a DB table.

    hello,
    u can do it by reading ur context node.
    we bind our UI elements to context attributes of appropriate type .
    we read their values using the code wizard or by pressing control+F7, click on radio button read node/attribute
    here for ur specific case , u must have binded ur table control with the context attribute , now u need to simply read this attribute
    eg suppose u have created a context node " cn_table"
      reading context node cn_table
       DATA : lo_nd_cn_table TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_node ,
             lo_el_cn_table TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_element ,
             ls_cn_table    TYPE wd_this->element_cn_table.
    *   navigate from <CONTEXT> to <CN_TABLE> via lead selection
      lo_nd_cn_table = wd_context->get_child_node(
                       name = wd_this->wdctx_cn_table ).
    **    get element via lead selection
      lo_el_cn_table = lo_nd_cn_table->get_lead_selection(  ).
      lo_el_cn_table->get_static_attributes( IMPORTING
                 static_attributes = wa_table ).
    here wa_table is the work area of structure type . u need to create a structure first with the same variables as there are the context attributes in ur node cn_table
    in ur
    now ur wa_tablecontains value
    u can nw use appropriate FM to update , delete and modify the DB table using the value
    u cn directly use SQL statements as well in the method of ur view , but direct SQL statements are nt recommende

  • Any license issue for using Forms 5.0 deploye application?

    Hello,
    if I using Forms 5.0 to develop an application, then using forms runtime to deploy, have any license issue ?

    Assuming that you have a licence for Forms then it depends on how you are deploying it.
    If you are deploying the application in Client Server mode then tghere is no runtime licence for Forms.
    If you are deploying on the web then you will need a Forms Server licence

  • License issue for EP users

    Hi,
         I created certain WD application based on Z- functional module like delivery report, outstanding, sales order .My data source is ECC. I mapped single ecc users to multiple ep users.
    Now i want to provide the login facility to the n- numbers of ep users by keeping the ep server outside the firewall. But we have limited ecc user license.
    So, wether it is necessary to buy the each and every ep users license who want to logon to the portal or by user mapping (by single ecc user),multiple ep users can logon to the portal?

    Hi Kundan,
    If your system is ABAP + JAVA, then you don't need licence for EP user.
    It will comes uder licence for your SAP backend System.
    Thanks

    Did you have an Adobe trial running on this same computer before?  Maybe your previous trial was used for 3 weeks and then you uninstalled it?  If so, you're only eligible for a 1 week trial on this computer.

  • Licensing issue by using Applications AC and PC

    Hi,
    The SAP GRC 10.0 solution comes as bundled solution for AC, PC and RM. While downloading the SAP GRC 10.0 all the three components are downloaded but in a dormant state.
    With the release of GRC 10.0, Access Control and Process Control are offered as an integrated solution, both at the data layer and at the user interface layer. This new unified platform enables increased harmonization of key master data.
    GRC 10.0 is a harmonized platform. Although maintenance of data within AC and PC is similar in 10.0 as it was in previous releases, there are some key differences. The following master data is shared between AC and PC for the release 10.0 integration scenario.
    u2022 Organizations
    u2022 Business Processes
    u2022 Business Subprocesses
    u2022 Controls
    SAP GRC System Add-ons:
    Access Control, Process Control and Risk Management are contained in one ABAP add-on u201CGRCFND_Au201D
    SAP Backend System Plug-ins:
    A. GRCPINW: NW Function Modules hold the AC functions for ERP systems without HR (former non-HR RTA)
    B. GRCPIERP: PC relevant features are contained in the plug-in GRCPIERP, for example, for running automated controls and the HR relevant functions for AC (former HR RTA)
    There are multiple activation points for AC, PC and RM:
    u2022 SAP GRC SPRO -> activate the Application. However
    u2022 When we go for the Plug-ins (GRCPIERP) installation in backend systems with HR function module it also brings in the PC relevant features.
    u2022 Mitigating Control definition based on Organizations
    I had activated the Application AC and PC for some time assuming that PC is required to create the Mitigation Control and Organizations. However I just realized that Mitigating Control and Organization can be created even without Activating PC, which does nothing but removes the additional features of PC.
    My Query:
    u2022 Kindly let me know if I can still use PC to create and assign Mitigating Control as a shared resource for AC and PC or I have violated Licensing issue by using Applications AC and PC when I am supposed to use just Access Control.
    u2022 How is shared resources in SAP GRC 10 dealt in terms of Licensing of Applications in SAP GRC 10.
    Thanking you in advance.

    all the new pc's we've purchased for a time now, don't have a Win7 CoA product key attached, even though they come with Win7 downgrade rights, so your strategy to use the CoA pkeys for the Win7 install on the new machines might be flawed.
    We don't buy HP, and I'm in Australia, so I'm not sure if this will be the same for you.
    Also, the OEM image that you would use to re-deploy/re-image with, may need to be different for varying models (OEMs might include different drivers, or other checks or blockers, in their image and OOBE scripts), and, the embedded OEM "master" product key/certificate
    could vary (or not align) across model types/generations.
    Ours do have the SLIC table in firmware and the OA markers, and we use VL Win7 Enterprise anyway, so our 40,000 machine fleet means VL and Software Assurance as a part of our EA + Select is an (expensive) no-brainer really.
    The other thought I have for you, is the re-imaging rights that are bestowed when you have a VL agreement (and therefore, are not bestowed if you don't have one). Because we do have a VL agreement, I've never dived into how it might be worked if we didn't
    have VL.
    http://www.microsoft.com/licensing/about-licensing/briefs/reimaging.aspx
    http://www.microsoft.com/licensing/about-licensing/briefs/downgrade-rights.aspx
    If you do look at a VL agreement, I'm told they start from as few as 5 machines. And, if you purchase new pc's, you have the option to enrol the new pc's into Software
    Assurance within 90days of purchase, which I imagine would save you some cost, compared to attaching SA to them at a later time, presumably requiring you to pay full ticket price for that.
    I'd recommend you get some advice from an MS reseller, even if only to work out what the various options/costs might be.

  • Anonymous user Unbale to access an WebDynpro ABAP iView

    Hi,
    I have developed an application using webdynpro ABAP and integrated that into portal.
    For this webdynpro application i have to create an iview, assigned it to a page, assigned this page to a custom role. I also set Authentication to anonymous for the page and iView. Assinged the custom role created to anonymous Group.
    But while running it i am getting an error "An exception occurred while processing your request. Send the exception ID to your portal administrator. Exception ID 04:55_25/10/11_0047_14739050"
    When I checked the log, it shows the error as "Deprecated scope of type SERVERSESSION_AT_LEAST_ONE_APP_SCOPE is used! Please replace the usage of scopes with new
    mechanism based on "Cross application session communication API".
    I also checked the note 1031159 and changed the configurations accordingly but getting the same above error.
    I am on EP7.3 version.
    Please guide me to move further successfully in showing the webdynbpro abap applicaiton to anonymous user.
    Thank you.

    Hi,
    I'm also working on EP7.3 and R3 WD4A integration. But I just can't find any WD for ABAP from whithin EP7.3 wizard.
    I tried to create the WD4A iview by right-clicking a PCD folder and then "New"->"iView"->"iView from remote source" to get a search screen. I choose a system alias (point to bk web as), use "*" as application id, and pick "WebDynpro for ABAP" as the application type.
    However, I always got "Nothing found. Change your search criteria."
    I did do some activation work on backend R3 SICF setting. I'm able to directly access  web dynpro via http://mywebas.domain:8000/sap/bc/webdynpro/mywd.... 
    If you're using the same scenario, please let me know anything I missed or any other special setting.

    Problem is when I am executing with enduser portal WWID's (i.e. WWID's are also defined as sap

        The current ABAP program "CL_WD_ADOBE_SERVICES==========CP" had to be

        come across a statement that unfortunately cannot be executed.
    Error analysis
        An exception occurred that is explained in detail below.
        The exception, which is assigned to class 'CX_SY_REF_IS_INITIAL', was not
         caught in

        Since the caller of the procedure could not have anticipated that the

        The reason for the exception is:
        You attempted to use a 'NULL' object reference (points to 'nothing')
        access a component.
        An object reference must point to an object (an instance of a class)
        before it can be used to access components.

    I don't think you quite understand how hibernation mode works.
    "The state of a computer is stored into its main memory, which is also called RAM. When a
    computer is powered off, the contents of this memory are irremediably wiped out. Hiberna-
    tion works in the following way: before being powered off, the computer saves all the con-
    tents of the memory to a file on the hard disk drive. On wake up, data stored in this file is
    read out and restored to the memory. Therefore, the RAM contents are the same before
    and after the hibernation process, and the state of the computer is also the same. The
    saved file is named sleepimage, and is located in the /private/var/vm directory. Hi-
    bernation is sometimes also called “software suspend” or “suspend to disk”.
    The default suspension feature of Mac OS X, called sleep works in a different way. When
    entering sleep, every subsystem of the computer is shut down, except the main memory
    which is still powered. This process preserves the contents of the memory, and allows the
    computer to wake up quickly. However, a sleeping computer still consumes a small
    amount of power. Sleep is sometimes also called “hardware suspend” or “suspend to
    RAM”.
    Apple introduced the safe sleep feature in Mac OS X 10.4.3 for the Powerbook HD line of
    laptops. This feature is a variation of the default suspension behavior. The main memory is
    still powered during the sleep, but the contents of the memory are also saved to the disk at
    the beginning of the operation. The saved file will only be used if the laptop runs out of bat-
    tery power while sleeping, in order to restore the original state of the computer.
    This safe sleep feature is what makes hibernation possible in Mac OS X 10.4.3 and above."

  • How to read the excel file using webdynpro abap?

    Hi,
    how to read and modify excel file using webdynpro abap?
    Regards,
    Pavani

    For reading excel file follow the steps :
    1. Use a File upload UI element and bind it with xstring.
    2. Now your excel will be uploaded and stored in Xstring.
    3. Convert Xstring to String data using FM 'HR_KR_XSTRING_TO_STRING'.
    4. Now split the string at new line so as to make an internal table .
      Ex . SPLIT l_string  AT cl_abap_char_utilities=>newline INTO TABLE it_table.
      here it_table is type table of string.
    5.now loop at the internal table and separate the content of this table separated by tab.
      Ex. SPLIT wa_table AT cl_abap_char_utilities=>horizontal_tab INTO TABLE it_new.
    it_new type string_table.

    Please Provide requried information .
    Thanks & Regards.

    NB - the "data" that is returned by these classes is the data as defined in an adobe form - it doesn't return the content of non-form PDF documents.
    The PDF must be an interactive form ( although that doesn't restrict you to using the SAP process for creating the form is my understanding - but I could be wrong. )
    Edit - I was wrong! ONLY PDF documents that have been created by the ADS can have data extracted using these classes. So unless you are using Adobe interactive forms - then you will get no value from this functionality - and if you're using AIF then you're probably just use the standard UI element
