Invoice simulation using a java connector

Hello,
I am trying to post/simulate a vendor invoice in B1 system from a java application(connected through a JCO).
I know this is possible with R/3, but not sure with B1.
Does B1 has functionality to simulate a document similar to simulation in R/3? If yes, how can we do this using a jco?
Thanks
Ramakanth

Hi Ramakanth,
If by simulation you mean go through all steps and check if there is any error, but in the end nothing is created then yes it is possible. You should start a transaction from the company object (oCompany.StartTransaction()) and create your document. In the end simply rollback the operation (oCompany.EndTransaction(BoWfTransOpt.wf_RollBack)).
If you mean create a draft, it's also possible just get a draft document type (oCompany.GetBusinessObject(BoObjectTypes.oDrafts)) and then set the DocObjectCodeEx property to the appropriate document type (oDocument.DocObjectCodeEx = "13" //invoice).
Good luck.
Best regards,
Pedro Magueija

Additional runtime license fees per user in order to use the Java connector

Hi All,
I have one question.
Do we require to pay additional runtime license fees per user in order to use the Java connector (Jco) supplied by SAP?
We're currently not using the Jco but are looking into the possibility of using it.
Thank in Advance.

Hi All,
Please answer my question
We need to use Jco to connect to our 4.6C SAP production system. We do not have Portal or any other components. It's just a plain 4.6C system, service pack level is 23.
We are currently paying license fees for using the system on a per user basis.
Thank You.

CVP VXML Custom Action Element using SAP Java Connector (SAP Jco)

Mates,
Have any of you built one of these? CVP 4.x, 7.x, 8.x - doesn't matter much.
I've built plenty (!) of custom action elements, decision elements, SayItSmart and so on, but never one to talk SAP Jco.
Just wondering if someone has any experience they can share on the Forum.
Thanks heaps - in advance.

Geoff

Java Connector being use in Dell Axim x50v "Windows CE"

Hi all,
I have a Dell Axim x50v "Windows Mobile 2003" Windows CE. I would like to use the Java Connector in this handheld device but I have been encoutering a problem of registering the librfc32.dll, msvcr71.dll, etc..
Can I use the Java Connector with the handheld device or not.
It seems like the DLL that came with JCO are not compatible with Windows CE..
Can someone reply and explain.
thanks in advance.
Jen

Hello Jennifer,
you can't use the JCo in Windows CE. You have to use the Mobile Infrastructure. Have a look at http://service.sap.com/mobile and and also <a href="https://www.sdn.sap.com/sdn/developerareas/mi.sdn?node=linkDnode7">Mobile Infrastructure</a> here in SDN.

Unable to register the SAP JAVA CONNECTOR sapjco3.dll file

HI
I'm trying to intergrate BO and BW using SAP BO Integration kit, and following the manual at http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc/index?rid=/library/uuid/a00ee3b2-5283-2b10-f1bf-8c6413e0898f&overridelayout=true
But first i must install the SAP Java Connector, I have downloaded them from https://websmp107.sap-ag.de/~form/sapnet?_SHORTKEY=01100035870000719346&.
My server is a WMvare win 2008.service pack 2.
My problem is that i'm unable to register the sapjco3.dll file.
I'm runnning the comand regsvr32 "C:windowssyswow64sapjco3.dll
but I only get the error message "The module "sapjco3.dll" was loaded but the entry-point DllRegisterServer was not found. Make sure that "sapjco3.dll" is a valid DLL or OCX file ant try again"
I hav tried both the 64 bit and the 32 bit version of the dll. same error.
the dll version is 7110.34.16.7531
Any ideas

Hi Pal,
you need to use the Java Connector v 2.1.8 and there is no need to register the DLL.

What is the use of Java Connector?

Check out below link about J C.

Java Connector -- Many Users?

Does anybody have experience using the Java Connector to serve BW data out to a large volume of concurrent end users? We are looking to use this technology to provide a Java-based frontend query access to backend InfoProviders. The queries will not be complex, but they will be frequent and we are looking for an experienced vote of confidence.
Thank you very much for any feedback!

You need sapjco.jar. Check sap help link

Java connector license

Our company purchased business one 2005A. Our SAP business partner told us that to use the sdk java connector for our own purposes we needed to purchase a license (~10K US). Originally they said we could do any customization we wanted without any additional cost but when we asked for the SDK they said to cough up the money. Can someone tell me what we need in order to do use the java connector inhouse?

Hi Chester,
If you are going to be doing any development using the DI API (which includes the Java connector) then you must have a development license from SAP. I'm not sure on pricing but $10K sounds about right. There used to be a restriction that you needed at least one person in your company who was certified as a development consultant but I don't know if this rule still applies.
You can develop using the UI API without the development license but this only allows customisation of the user interface of the SBO client.

Owen

System requirements for java connector

can anyone tell me what the system requirements are in order to use the java connector? with system requirements i mean mainly:
- what java version do i need (j2ee or is j2se enough)?
- which business one tools do i need to install?
- can i run it only on the server or also on a client?
- what do i need in order to use jsp? (besides a webserver )
please point me to any possible documentation that answers my question, if i was to dumb to find it...
kind regards
pascal

1. Java Version 1.4x or 1.5, j2se is enough
2. DI and Java Connector
3. You can run it on any machine with the above installed

Well, I added two lines in OC4J.cmd
set ORACLE_HOME=C:\OC4J\oc4j_extended_101350
set JAVA_HOME=C:\JAVA\JDK7u7
before
set J2EE_HOME=%ORACLE_HOME%\j2ee\home
and I restarted the windows. It looks try to run OC4J but failed, as I open services window, it shows OC4J is "stopping". When I try to run it manually, I got the same problem again. is there anything I missed? What is your OC4J, JDK and javaservice version?

Have i missed anything?
Should i deploy any .jar file? (i've already deployed MDM4J.jar) and referenced it in portalapp!
Thanks in advance
SwarnaDeepika

Hello Swarna:
I believe than rather than deploying the MDM4J.jar, you should deploy this components:
com.sap.mdm.tech.mdm4j.sda
com.sap.mdm.tech.connector.sda
BPMDMTECHN00_0.sca
BPMDMAPPLI00_0.sca
Once you deploy those, you should have no problems. Another solution would be to take your MDM4J.jar and wrap it into an SDA, then deploy, but that would be pretty much the same.
Those components are included on your MDM CD. Please ensure you use the same Version/support package/hotfix all over your landscape.
I hope that helps
Alejandro

I assume here that your application is deployed on a different physical machine of where LCES is deployed and running.
Do the following test:
- Say that LCES is deployed on machine1 and your application is deployed on machine2. Ping machine1 from machine2 and note the ip address.
- Ping machine1 from machine1 and note the ip address.
The two pings should match.
- Ping machine2 from machine1 and note the ip address.
- Ping machine2 from machine2 and note the ip address.
The two pings should match.
Usually this kind of error would happen if your servers have internal and external ip addresses.
