Enterprise Services in ECC using SPROXY transaction

Dear All,
We were able see the Enterprise Services available in ECC 6.0 EHP 3 using the transaction SPROXY, we have even tested one proxy through this transaction. But now when we have configured ECC to connect the ESR (of PI), it is only showing Software components / Service Interface available in ESR throught the SPROXY transaction in ECC and not showing the Enterprise Services which are available in ECC.
How to see both the things, existing Enterprise Services of ECC and Service Interfaces of ESR through SPROXY transaction in ECC?
please help.
thanks and regards,
Ravi

Hi Ravi,
It may be that you just need a delta cache refresh but I would start by checking the SLD configuration.
First strt with SAP Note: 1169869
- I think that you might need to try changing the vendor (sap.com) that's assigned to the Software Component Version.
- If you were seeing the SWCV before it should be installed on your system anyway but you can double check using the steps I've specified here: [Can't find ESA ECC-SE 603 SWCV;
- You might also want to check if the SWC is correctly assigned to the relevant business system/s in the SLD.

Enterprise services in ECC 5

I know that ECC 6 supports enterprise services which are delivered through ES bundles. Is it possible to use enterprise services with ECC 5? We are also running PI 7.0. Any links to documentation on how to do this would be appreciated.

Hi,
It is possible to consume and create service in ECC5 but lot of effort required and some infrastrucuture part is also not available.
In case of ECC6 all the services along with definitions are provided by SAP so lot less simplified usage.
Follow this link: Can we create & run a WebService in ECC5.0 which has only ABAP stack

How to find Working Time approval Enterprise services in ECC 6.0 EHP #3

Hi All,
We are on ECC 6.0 EHP #3. We have activated the EA-HR & EA-TRV ENTERPRISE_EXTENSIONS & related business functions in transaction sfw5. How and where do I look for Working Time entry and approval enterprise services in ECC. I tried to find through SOAMANAGER and SE80-Enterprise services browser but could not find them.
Do we need to activate anything else or am I not looking at the right place?
Thanks,
Rajive

Hi,
Enterprise Services are delivered by SAP with Enhancement Packs (Ehp). So number of services you can see depend on your Ehp and activation of business function while installing Ehp.
You can see ES in transaction SICF (to activate) and you can search services in transaction SE80->Repository Information System ->Enterprise service (search).

Why some enterprise services in ECC don't have the webservices definition?

we have the ECC ehp 604 and PI 7.1 installed. We would like to publish the enterprise services coming with 604 to PI ESR. However, we noticed some enterprise services don't have the webservices definition .eg
[GeneralLedgerAccountMasterReplicationBulkRequest_Out|http://esworkplace.sap.com/socoview(bD1lbiZjPTAwMSZkPW1pbg==)/render.asp?id=F7A6B6A0A70711DC2B8D000F20FCB6A9&fragID=&packageid=DE0426DD9B0249F19515001A64D3F462&iv=]
Here are my questions.
1. How can I register these services to ESR but they don't have webservices definition?
2. why they don't have the webservices definition like others?
3. How to use them via ESR?
Thanks!
Edited by: Jim Ma on Jun 16, 2009 4:15 PM

Hey Jim Ma,
we have got the same problem. We are using SAP TM 7.0 and all Services Interfaces (Transaction SPROXY) haven't got any WebService Definition.
Have you already found out why?
Kind regards,

Settings for idempotent enterprise services in ECC

Hi,
I want to use enterprise service ECC_GOODSMOVEMENTCRTRC1 / GoodsMovementERPCreateRequestConfirmation_In_V1 within a nonSAP application to post GoodsMovements at an ECC system.
http://es-workplace.sap.com/socoview(bD1lbiZjPTAwMSZkPW1pbg==)/render.asp?packageid=DE0426DD9B0249F19515001A64D3F462&id=…
The service works and I can do all movement types I want.
Now I want to have idempotency activated at the ECC system.
But nobody of the ECC guys knows, what has to be done for this.
What transaction has to be used?
Is there a default value for the time frame for which the system keeps responses for already processed service calls?
If not, I would propose 100 days, because this is the worst case, the nonSAP application could send a message again.
Are 100 days to large for the idempotency time frame of an ECC system?
Regards
Roland

Now I have got readonly permission for transaction SPRO at the ECC system.
The path to the idempotency settings is:
SPRO -> SAP Reference IMG -> Cross-Application Components -> Processes and Tools for Enterprise Applications -> Enterprise Services -> General Settings for Enterprise Services -> Define Settings for Idempotent Services
Permission for transaction WSIDPADMIN is required to execute the activity "Define Settings for Idempotent Services". I don't have this.
But there is a good explanation in SPRO what has to be done in "Define Settings for Idempotent Services"
Define Settings for Idempotent Services
Use
Enterprise Services for which you need to ensure that every service call is executed precisely once are called idempotent services.
You use this IMG activity to define how long the system keeps stored response messages or details about query messages (the message IDs) for which responses have already been sent for synchronous Enterprise Services. You have to define this for each client in which you wish to use synchronous Enterprise Services.
In order not to burden the database by storing the response messages or message IDs unnecessarily long, the system schedules two background jobs to regularly delete stored response messages and message IDs:
SAP_BC_IDP_WS_SWITCH_BD for response messages
SAP_BC_IDP_WS_SWITCH_BDID for message IDs
The system uses table pairs to ensure that the response message or the ID of the answered query message is deleted as soon as possible once the set retention period has expired:
One table pair for each client for the response messages
One table pair for each client for the message IDs that have been stored
The two tables of a table pair are entered alternately. When switching from the first table to the second, the data in the first table is retained and that in the second table is deleted before the system generates new entries.
You decide how ofter the system switches back and forth between the tables of a table pair. The result is the minimum retention period for the stored data.
Requirements
This function is available to you as of SAP NetWeaver 2004s SP09 and ECC SE 600 SP03.
Activities
In the Document section, define the minimum retention period for the response messages. You do this by specifying how often you want the system to switch between the two tables.
In the Document ID section define the minimum retention period for the message IDs. You do this by specifying how often you want the system to switch between the two tables.
SAP recommends you define a longer retention period for the message IDs than for the response messages. Bear in mind that a repeated query message leads to an error if the corresponding response message has already been deleted but the message ID is still available.
To save what you have defined, choose Schedule.
Repeat steps 1 to 4 for all clients in which you wish to use Enterprise Services.
Example
You have defined the time for switching between the two tables in which the response messages are stored as two hours. This means that the response messages are kept for at least two hours but for no more than four hours.
You have defined the time for switching between the two tables in which the message IDs are stored as one day. This means that the message IDs are kept for at least one day but for no more than two days.

Regarding enterprise services in ECC

Hi ,
In reference to whether using standard idocs or standard ES available in ECC box ,in case we are not using CE ( so no composite applications) and only using SAP PI to integrate could someone point out any best practices that are available. The majority of services for example for Order to Cash scenarios like Sales Order create are synchronous in mode. From performance and reprocessing perspective using an asynchronous mode would be preferable - so do we use enterprise services for straight forward scenarios like order creation in ecc from sender legacy application or we use it only when we have business process orchestration in mind for later.

Enterprise Service: Find supplier using Product name or Product ID

Hello,
                 I'm looking for an Enterprise Service to find suppliers who are selling a particular product by entering product name or ID as input...
                 I searched in ESworkplace and I could'nt find one, other than finding using supplier ID...
                 Does anyone have this service or know where I can find this Service please?

Here you are. As you see, it's quite complicated -- InDesign needs a destination URL, a virtual hyperlink, and an instance of this virtual hyperlink. All in all it took me a couple of tries before I got it right. (It didn't help your example URLs don't exist yet )
d = app.activeDocument;
url_style = d.characterStyles.item("URL style name");
app.findGrepPreferences = null;
app.findGrepPreferences.findWhat = "\\<AD\\w+[\\dx]\\>";
sourceList = d.findGrep();
for (l=0; l<sourceList.length; l++)
     link = d.hyperlinkURLDestinations.add ( "http://www.corpsite.com/"+sourceList[l].contents);
     d.hyperlinks.add ( d.hyperlinkTextSources.add (sourceList[l]), link ).name = sourceList[l].contents+" ("+l+")";
     sourceList[l].appliedCharacterStyle = url_style;

Implementing an ESR Enterprise Service in Ecc 6.0

Hi experts,
I've finish to model my Enterprise Service in the ES Builder. So, now i want to implement that service in the ECC 6.0. How can i do that o what do i need ? I think that i have to configure an Abap proxy is that ok?
I need information please!!!!!!
Thanks for all.
Hope you can help me.
Regards.
Diego.

Hi guys, i solved my problem.
The thing is that you can`t implement an enterprise service directly from the ESR to any Ecc 6.0 ( some kind of publication ). You have to model this service in the ESR and then you can implement from the Ecc 6.0 with a conection between both enviroments.
hope it`s clear.
Thanks for all.

How to consume SAP enterprise services over https using third party tools?

Hi guys,
am just testing consumption of ES using jboss instead of NW for client applications. The ES in our internal ERP are bit strange, ie. they are using HTTPS transport even though you can configure ES with HTTP transport. (in this case, the requests are always redirected to HTTPS one). Wanna hear from perhaps someone who had similar experiences about
- Have you encountered the situation that ES can only exposed as HTTPS WS. Is there any way to enable HTTP ES?
- The way to consume ES over HTTPs. How to configure and generate the client which can talk HTTPs with ES?
Any comnments are thankful.
Best,
Ji
Edited by: Ji Hu on Oct 1, 2010 3:20 PM

Thanks.
Have solved the problem. I need to configure my client, i.e. JVM to connect the server with https. The generated ws client stub itself does not need to care about HTTPS or HTTP transport.
In some case, one do have enabled HTTP transport via soamanager, but it never became HTTP (redirected to HTTPS). I have no idea why, but have to talk in HTTPS as the only one option.

Enterprise Services using PDK/JCA

Hi,
Is it possible to consume Enterprise Service provided by PI 7.1 via a PDK application in EP 7.0, does JCA support? Or should we get the WDSL generated using sproxy transaction from the ES and integrate WS in the PDK application?
We have the above requirement - so please avoid replies on CE, using VC in EP 7.0 etc
Any hints? Thanks - Dhanz

How to use web service in ECC 6.0

Hi.
I found some WSDL in "SDN ES Workplace".
Anybody know how to use this WSDL ?
For example, I want to use 'Query Sales Order' web service and I found WSDL in "SDN ES Workplace".
What's next step to use this web service ?
Regards, Arnold.

Hi Austin,
Link provided for mySAP ERP Enterprise Service Package ECC-SE 600, does not work. My company is SAP customer and I am SDN member.
Do I need some special login or membership to download ES packages?
I also understand that I can access the Enterprise Service from the ES Workplace (implementation) and for that I have to Apply For an Account. I applied for an account at this link https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/esareg .
After applying for an Account should be getting an email with user Id/password OR I can use the my Service Market Place ID?
Tried entering the my service market place Id, does not work.
Thanks,
Abhay

E2Open interfaces built using enterprise services

We need to build purchase orders related interfaces with E2Open and discussing on using IDOC vs ESOA services that were provided by SAP with Ehp4. We need to extend these services to get our custom data and using IDOCs would save time. There is web methods/software AG server (middleware) that will translate SAP structure into OAG structures.
Any suggestions/pros & cons on IDOC vs ESOA?

Hi Rajani,
My personal opinion:
I think that you need to think more long term, using IDOCs would save you time now but significantly reduces your flexibility. You should also factor into consideration business goals & strategy (where the company is headed towards).
If you have an ESR (Enterprise Service Repository) in your landscape (it comes shipped with SAP Netweaver CE or SAP PI), there's nothing stopping you from extending the standard SAP Enterprise Services to cater for your custom data. If you don't, an option would be to create custom Abap programs that wrap the enterprise service functionality & cater for your custom data. You could then web service enable those custom programs.
I'm personally not a big fan of IDOCs because I think that they are too cumbersome to use but they also work well. You need to ask yourself, some questions like:
- What if a business process changes, what would the impact be if you choose IDOCs over enterprise services?
- What if you at some stage need to orchestrate provisioning interfaces to cater for changing business / market / regulatory conditions?
- How much is SAP investing in Enterprise Services vs IDOCs?
- How agile is the approach of using IDOCs vs Enterprise Services?
- Does using IDOCs give you an egde over competitors & if there is a business opportunity that needs to be capitalized on, how quickly can you adapt the IDOC scenarios to take advantage of it?
- What about skill levels (developers etc.) for IDOCs & Enterprise services?
- Budget constraints?
These are just some questions...
On the whole, I think that Enterprise Services would work better but it depends on your specific circumstances & SAP is investing significantly more on Enterprise Servies than IDOCs so you would get that added benefit.

Mapping ALE functionality to Enterprise Services

Hi SAP Gurus,
I am in an assignment to leverage Enterprise Services in the project and as part of it i need to understand how we can use Enterprise Services for the following requirements which are well supported by ALE/Idoc functionality.
1) Master Data Distribution - We have ALE Change Pointers mechanism to track the changes done to the master data (Customer/Material/Vendor) and we can process the changes and create the idocs for the same by EOD. Changes are tracked based on the field level and interface level(Message Type). How can we leverage this change pointer mechanism in Enterprise Services.
2) Best practice to trigger the Outbound enterprise services from ECC system.
3) There are various tools to monitor IDOCs in ECC, what all are the tolls/transactions for monitoring the Enterprise Service.
4) What is your view on IDOC V/s Enterprise Service
Regards,
Pras

Hi Prasanna,
These are two quite different technologies and framework here that your questions are about. One is SMD (Shared Master Data) tool which involves change pointers & IDocs and the other is an Enterprise Service for example an ABAP Proxy or a Web Service.
1. Why would a customer want to do that especially for standard master data applications like Customer Master, Vendor Master, Material Master etc? I mean I don't understand the benefit of it when all these standard applications already support SMD. If a customer really wants these same functionalities via an Enterprise Service then they basically have to develop more custom applications to support this - for e.g. a Z program which will essentially replace BD21 to process the change pointers (CP) per application i.e. call the associated ABAP Proxy which will then create/do not create IDocs, process the CP by applying business logic, generate XML for PI to distribute further, email/do not email business owner, change the status of the CP depending on the outcome of the processing, exception handling etc. etc. But this whole thing, in my view, is cumbersome and sort of unnecessary as most of these things could be achieved via the SMD tool (except creating the IDoc itself of course!)
The other way, to totally get rid of the CPs and process every change via ES - one would have to enhance all applications in question to call the ES (ABAP Proxy) at the time of master data change! There is no equivalent of BD64 in ES so I don't understand the purpose to be honest.
2. In my view, to trigger it as an Outbound Proxy or Client Proxy via Method call.
3. SXMB_MONI
4. Like I said in the beginning, its like comparing two different technologies - I guess in the end it comes down to the business requirement at hand. Both can be very efficient (or very inefficient if deployed incorrectly).
Cheers,
Sougata.

Enterprise Services Point-to-Point Communication

Hello Gurus,
I have activated Enterprise Services in ECC and installed all the prequisite SWC in PI.
I can see all the relvant objects in PI and ECC i.e. proxies.
However I can't find the service interfaces in SOA or service registry.
I want to create a point2point communication using these services or is it not possible? it really should go thru adapters?
*Im fairly new to using ES(sap delivered).
Thanks for your help!

Hi,
However I can't find the service interfaces in SOA or service registry.
To see service in service registry you need to publish it. Check transaction SOAMANAGER and search for your service, you will be able to see it there. Create endpoint and use wsdl of selected binding for point to point communication (No adapter required).
Seach SCN and SAP help for step by step instructions.

Enterprise Service Outbound - SXMSPMAST Pipeline EVENT - no msg to PI triggered

Dear guys
at the moment we are trying to set up SAP enterprise services outbound in the healthcare environment, which should be used through SAP PI.
The ABAP backend is already configured to communicate with SAP PI using ABAP proxy.
We went through the documentation and set up the according customizing, hopefully we did not miss anything.
While running the mentioned report for transmitting business data via enterprise services the according proxy classes have been determined and called, logs look quite promising.
Looking at transaction sxi_monitor in ABAP provider system entries with status 110 - Event Distributed Successfully pipeline EVENT are visible, but none for pipeline SENDER, which is quite common for ABAP proxy request to SAP PI.
Configuration of Business Event
All services that are developed in Enhancement Package 5 are Point to Point enabled i.e. a service can be consumed or received directly without having any Process integration (PI). All information services (i.e. outbound services) are Business event enabled i.e. event is published when an action is performed in the system.
In order to receive the outbound information directly (i.e without Process Integration) one has to enable the Event option in the logical port configuration of the service in SOAMANAGER transaction and also check if the event in activated via SLEI_EVT_LINKAGE transaction.
According to the documentation this enterprise services could be used with or without SAP PI. So for me at the moment is not quite clear, if additional configuration is needed in SOAMANAGER or if this is only needed while working without SAP PI.
I assumption so far was it should be not necessary, and the ABAP proxy configuration already available should be used automatically to send the according request to SAP PI.
Maybe someone could give me a hint if some configuration is missing and how to get the data pushed to SAP PI.
I think the configuration is common for SAP enterprise services and not healthcare specific.
Thanks in advance,
best regards
Jochen

Dear guys
issue solved by creating logical port for proxy in transaction SOAMANAGER selection mode "PI runtime"
best regards
Jochen
