Integration of SAP with Winfax/Outlook

First I want to know the most expeditious way to import
a contact list from Outlook into SAP.
Importing an excel file (turned into a text file) can damage the database even when following guidelines
Getting the Outlook plug in to work (with patches, upgrades, minimum requirements is laborious and problematic and when finished the actual importation of
a list adds more time again to this whole process
Importing data into MSSQL and having it available in
SAP is also problematic
Just adding recipients to a distribution list seems the
least time consuming
Is there any way to do this that is quicker and easier
than just adding names in SAP in a distribution list?
Thanks
Larry Marcus

Lawrence,
This question actually does not pertain to the SAP Business One Integration for SAP NetWeaver ... so that is not a product that you would use.
With respect to your question about importing contacts from MS Outlook to SAP Business One, if you do not wish to use the SAP Outlook integration addon, and not only can a straight import using SQL be problematic but if not done correctly could cause corruption to the Business One database.  I would then recommend that you look at using the SAP Business One Data Transfer WorkBench (DTW).  This is an SAP tool that allows you to take text files that are comma, tab or space delimited as well and using ODBC to connect to relation database tables and graphically map the external data to SAP Business One objects such as the Business Partner Master and therefore Contacts.  The DTW provides Excel template to assist in arraigning the appropriate data for import.  The DTW is located with the SAP Business One installation media as an optional install.

  • Integration of SAP with Lotus Notes

    Hi Friends:
    How are you all doing? I have a query for you all.
    <b><u>Background:</u></b>
    I have a very customer who is currently running on SAP 4.7 Enterprise Edition Version 2. They have Lotus Notes Verison 6.5 Version in place.
    <u><b>Business Case:</b></u>
    When an employee applies for a leave, his manager should get this notification in to his LOTUS NOTES Inbox.
    Right now employee's manager has to logon in SAP to check the same. So the basic requirement is to integrate SAP inbox with the LOTUS NOTES Inbox so that person can get notification of SAP workitem (leave request) in Lotus notes without having to logon to SAP.
    <b><u>Challenges:</u></b>
    1) Customer does not want to upgrade to NetWeaver hence XI will be a expensive solution to accompilish the task.
    2) There are third party adapters engines available through which integration can be done at the lowest possible efforts but we are not considering this option.
    3) If we upgrade Lotus notes to the version such 7.0, plug-in is inbuilt but we are also not considering this particular option.
    <b><i>NOTE:</i></b> We are looking at the cheapest possible option.
    <u><b>Request for:</b></u>
    Please let me know can it be done using ABAP language. If yes, please send me the link so that i could refer to the alternative.
    Early response will be highly appreciated.
    <b><i>With Best Regards
    Amit Bansal.</i></b>

    Hi Amit,
    Can u please tel me in detail, for this sap workflow - lotusnotes integration because we have same requrement at one of my client side.

    Please reply ASAP as we have very less time to do that.

  • Integration of SAP with MS Office & Adobe Acrobat Reader using OLE

    Hi Friends,
    I have to integrate MS Office 2003 and ADOBE Acrobat reader with SAP very much like that demonstrated in SAPRDEMODOCUMENTCONTAINER program given in the control examples by SAP. But the problem is, the code I am developing and even in the one given by SAP has some problems in them. They are:
    (1) When a MS Word or any application is opened, many of its attributes are
    disabled like CTRL+ N for opening new document and CTRL+ O for opening
    an existing file and many others.
    (2) When I try to open an existing file using the recently used list, it is opening in
    a new window but my requirement is to open it in the same window in which
    the application frame is displayed over SAP screen.
    (3) I am following the same procedure that is used in the above said example and
    unable to understand the way methods of the inner most interface are implem-
    ented like method CONTAINER_CONTROL->CREATE_DOCUMENT that is
    called from within I_OI_DOCUMENT_PROXY~CREATE_DOCUMENT method. I
    am clueless how it is working.
    Please guide me how to solve the problem along with some good reference material that you can suggest me to study.
    Thanks & Regards
    Aditya P. Srivastava

    Hi Adiya,
    You need to pass the parameter 'open in place' to word file in same window.
    CALL METHOD DOCUMENT->OPEN_DOCUMENT
                        EXPORTING OPEN_INPLACE = 'X'

  • BOM integrity in SAP with respect to part version, engineering changes-DMS

    Hai folks,
    We have a concept of engg bom and plant bom, when a part no. is intiated for the change management
    it goes through a version change which is handled through DMS in SAP.
    The scenario is, i want to sink the version of the part with my document version .(i.e in our plant our component part number and drawing document number are same.)
    When i do a bom comparison using CS14, different field comparison's are thrown, except for the version difference.
    I doubt , since DMS is a centrally controlled area, it makes no sense to compare versions in the same SAP boundary, but can it be managed through some DMS object links in our system.
    Pl throw some concepts to ensure different BOM intergrity with respect to part versions and engineering changes.

    Since there are no replies, I am closing this issue

  • Integration of SAP with 2nd party application in VB

    Dear All,
    We have a requirement in which we have to take data from an application made in VB with two different databases as MS SQL Server and other database as Oracle. i.e. we have to club the data from these two databases in our SAP database which it self has MS SQL.
    Now the problem is that we cant make use of XI or BC or any 3rd party s/w. We have to use standard SAP and its functionality like RFC or IDOCs or etc.
    So what suggestions can the expert forum members give to achieve this task ?
    A quick response is highly appreciable.
    Kindly be a bit elaborative in your appraoch.

  • SAP Workflow integrated with Microsoft Outlook

    Hello All,
    I have the following question. When an work item comes in the SBWP inbox, as soon as the work item is executed by the user
    the workitem disappears from the SBWP. Now my question is if SAP Workflow is integrated with Microsoft Outlook (so that email containing the work item as a link reaches Outlook), is there a way to make the email disappear from the Outlook as soon as the SAP work item is completed.
    Can someone throw some light on the same.
    Thanks,
    Sachin

    Hi,
    Duet workflow scenario is available. SAP Application sends workitem to Duet Server and Outlook client has Duet add-in. You need Duet Server and user license.
    Also SAP MAPI Service Provider is available. You can access SAP Inbox items from your outlook client. I think SAP MAPI Service provider is free.

    Can you please try to do the following in the steps .
    1) Search for the file nslbe.dll which can be in the folder c:\program files\notes . Add the location to the PATH variable in the environment variables.
    2) Go to the installation folder for Lotus notes which might be c:\program files\Lotus\Notes\jvm\lib\ext . In this folder please put the following files Notes.jar,mail.jar,activation.jar, nslbe.dll. Please do take care that you will need to add the files in the folder ..\jvm\lib\ext
    3) Add the ..\jvm\lib\ext folder location to your environment variables.
    4) Create a environment variable JAVA_HOME and add the location of the jre-bin,lib and the JDK-bin,lib to this.

  • Handling the context when integrating SAP with WBIMB

    I need to integrate SAP systems with an integration platform that is based on WebSphere Message Broker 5 (WBIMB). Now I am looking for a feasible solution to integrate these platforms.
    I am concerned about how to handle the context when integrating SAP with WBIMB.
    I have read the topic “SAP XI and WBI adapters” (SAP XI  and WBI adapters) in this forum with interest. However, my requirements are slightly different, and my knowledge on development in SAP is limited.
    The WBIMB integration platform acts as an Enterprise Service Bus in a SOA. We have a general requirement about guaranteed delivery i.e. once and only once, and therefore the transport protocol is MQ. The HTTP protocol does not satisfy this requirement. Thus we can use Web Services when they are carried as SOAP messages over MQ, but SOAP/HTTP is not acceptable.
    The SAP systems can act as service provider as well as service consumer. The WBIMB act as an intermediary, which routes service requests to the proper provider and service responses back to the consumer.
    When acting as a service consumer, the SAP system shall specify the context such that WBIMB is able to route the service request to the service provider. Routing is based on the context, which is specified as a property in the MQRFH2 usr folder. Thus the MQ message containing the service request from the SAP system shall specify this usr property, and the value will depend on the requested service. In JMS, the value can be set by calling the TextMessage.setStringProperty method e.g. as TextMessage.setStringProperty(“MyContext”, “XYZ”).
    When acting as a service provider, the SAP system shall pass the context from the request back in the response message to WBIMB. Actually, I want to pass the complete usr folder from request to response, because it contains more information than just the context property.
    I need answers to the questions:
    1. How can I set the context from SAP when it acts as service consumer?
    2. How can I get SAP to pass the context (MQRFH2 usr folder) from request to response when it acts as service provider?
    3. I have looked at the SAP XI JMS Adapter. It looks as I can set additional JMS parameters. But the property value will depend on which service to call. Do I need to setup a JMS Adapter per service or can I set the value dynamically?
    4. Can the SAP XI JMS Adapter pass the context from request to response?
    5. Are there better alternatives than using the SAP XI JMS Adapter?
    Many thanks for any help you can give me in advance.

    Hi Daniel,
    Thanks for your answer. I expected it would turn out this way
    So the good news is that when SAP is acting as service consumer it sounds fairly easy to set up a mapping from XI message to MQ context.
    But when SAP acts as service provider it sounds as more customisation is required and I am worried about having to save the state. It will hit performance when the context is not carried as part of the message. In this case I prefer to use a generic solution on WBIMB, where I can handle the context for SAP (as well as other service providers). Then I only depend on the ability to set correlation in the response. But it will still cost performance because WBIMB also has to save the state on temporary MQ queue.
    Ideally, the SAP XI/Adapter should be able to pass the context 'out-of-the-box' to better support intermediaries like the WBIMB as ESB. I put this on my wishlist
    Anyway, I appreciate that you was able to confirm my observations.
    BR
    Allan
