Hi Cristian,
As peter mentioned, Please refer to SDK Online Help=>Content=>Degeloper Guide=>DI Server
In addition, you can the sample code of DI Server here:
<<...
SAPSAP Business One SDKSamplesDI Server>>
As regard to php sample, sorry we don't such sample so far.
Per php, I recommend you to B1WS, a web service wrapper of DI Server for only those 45 services objects. You can download B1WS here: SDK Tools Download:
SAP Business One Tools [original link is broken]
=>SAP Business One Web Services Wrapper Tool
From technical perspective, DI Server is based DCOM technology, I am not sure it is natively supported php. So you may think about wrapping DI server as web server with ASP.net, just like B1WS. php<=>web server<=>DI server

Know more detail about the Remote Support Platform for SAP Business One ?

SAP Business One 9.1 is about to release this year and we can see in the feature enhancements that a significant update is planned in the Remote Support Platform for SAP Business One, more commonly known as RSP. Let’s have a quick look what update is planned for RSP in version 9.1:
Enhancements planned in Remote Support Platform for SAP Business One 9.1
RSP is planned to support both SAP Business One on Microsoft SQL Server as well as SAP Business One on HANA Database
RSP Processes and Reports adapted to SAP HANA Database
With this plan RSP will help in the areas of Download, Installation, Go-Live Check, Monitoring, Upgrade and Support for SAP Business One both   on SQL Server and HANA.
But like me (non-SAP B1 Consultant) many of you have the question what is RSP and how it helps in support? Here I have tried to gather all information.
What is Remote Support Platform for SAP Business One?
The remote support platform for SAP Business One is designed to protect a SAP Business One installation by providing automated and remote support in a high-volume business.
The platform monitors the entire SAP Business One environment. By significantly reducing the time between the appearance, identification, and resolution of issues, the remote support platform for SAP Business One minimizes the impact on customer databases and processes.
Some Key Features of Remote Support Platform:
Showing alerts to SAP B1 Admin about the events which require their attention, such as low disk space, database backups, etc.
Incident Reports against the issues identified which require attention of SAP Support
Company Database Backup and Restore options
Regular fixes of Company Database inconsistencies
Check, Download and Install regular updates in SAP Business One
Upload Logs and required files to SAP Support or to Partner Support on regular basis
Some details about RSP Backup Management
Schedule daily, weekly, and monthly backups
Perform differential and full database backups
Back up transaction logs
Back up files to shared folders on a network
System Status Report through RSP
From June 1st 2013, it will be mandatory to install, configure and upload the System Status Report (SSR) from Remote Support Platform (RSP) for SAP Business One in order to receive support for messages of a technical nature (upgrades, performance & crashes, etc).
Database uploads only via RSP
From June 1st 2013 SAP Business One Support will only accept database uploads to SAP via remote support platform for SAP Business One. In certain exceptional circumstances STFP may be used but this will constitute a minority of cases.
Microsoft Windows PowerShell Scripting
In the remote support platform studio, you can create tasks using Microsoft Windows PowerShell scripting. PowerShell enables you to perform remote administrative tasks on customers’ Microsoft Windows operating systems, by providing full access to Component Object Model (COM) and Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI).Some Network Prerequisite for RSP
To achieve the internet connection test, you must allow port 80 for the RSP external communication
Disabling antivirus firewall or add the RSP to the trusted zone of the antivirus
Set the correct proxy
Disabling Windows firewall in the TP_link Wireless Configuration Utility

SAP Business One - Java Connector

Hi All,
 
We have a SAP Business One Application installed on a laptop. The requirement is to be able to use the SAP Java API to update tables in the system. We are not allowed to connect directly to the database and was advised to use the API instead.
 
The downloaded API that we are using is "sapjco30P_6-10005324 32 bit.zip". I have included the dll file contained in this package in the WINDOWS/system32 folder. I am using Eclipse as IDE and already included the "sapjco3.jar" in the classpath.
 
First question: Am I using the right Java Connector for SAP Business One?
 
I got sample code on how to connect using JCO:
 
package sample; 
import java.io.File; 
import java.io.FileOutputStream; 
import java.util.Properties; 
import java.util.concurrent.CountDownLatch; 
import com.sap.conn.jco.AbapException;

 properties.store(fos, "for tests only !"); 
 fos.close(); 
 } 
 catch (Exception e) 
 { 
 throw new RuntimeException("Unable to create the destination file " + cfg.getName(), e); 
 } 
 } 
 } 
 public static void step1Connect() throws JCoException

 System.out.println();

Each time I run the application I run into an error:

Second question: What seems to be the problem with my sample application? Do I need to use a different Java Connector for SAP Business One or SAP Business One does not support Java Connector?
 
Please help.
 
Thank you all.

Hi, 
Thank you very much for the reply. I am now able to move forward with what I am doing. 
I used the following code in connecting but am encountering an error: 
public class ConnectSAP {
 // company interface
 public ICompany company;
 private SBOErrorMessage errMsg = null;
 public static void main(String[] args) {
 ConnectSAP company = new ConnectSAP();
 company.conn();
 //method make connection andinitialize company instance
 public int conn() {
 int rc = 0;
 try {
 company = SBOCOMUtil.newCompany();
 company.setServer("192.168.0.216"); //192.168.0.216
 company.setCompanyDB("SBODemoUS");
 company.setUserName("manager");
 company.setPassword("manager");
 company.setDbServerType(SBOCOMConstants.BoDataServerTypes_dst_MSSQL2005);
 company.setUseTrusted(new Boolean(false));
 company.setLanguage(SBOCOMConstants.BoSuppLangs_ln_English);
 company.setDbUserName("username");
 company.setDbPassword("password");
 //company.setAddonIdentifier("...");
 //company.setLicenseServer("...");
 rc = company.connect();
 if (rc == 0) {
 System.out.println("Connected!");
 } else {
 errMsg = company.getLastError();
 System.out.println(
 "I cannot connect to database server: "
 + errMsg.getErrorMessage()
 + " "
 + errMsg.getErrorCode());
 } catch (Exception e) {
 e.printStackTrace();
 return -1;
 return rc;
 public void freeConnection(){
 company.disconnect();
} 
I am getting the error "Failed to Connect to SBOCommon -111". 
Error is still the same even if I set UseTrusted to true and comment the DbUserName and DbPassword. 
Do I need to specify the license? Or login to SAP before connecting? 
Thank you.

Addon not loading - B1 Usability Package for all users in SAP Business One

Hello, I am a new admin to SAP B1 and am about to go live in a few weeks. We are running SAP Business One v. 8.80.227.
Envirorment details: Dedicated server for SAP database, and Terminal Server for remote connections.
I have a demo group of users in Active Directory that have permission to Remote Desktop to the TS and load SAP. For now, theses users are local admins on the TS. ( Permissions to be revised once addon issues are worked out ). I am the companies tech, and we have a SAP implementation company leading the project development.
Currently the addons that we are running are CRSB1Addon SAP 8.8 and B1UP from boyumit.
For one of the users in the Active Directory Security Group all the addon's work great. However the other users get the error below;
When logging in the system message window shows the following:
Failed to assign SAP Business One user license to SAP Add-ons. The Add on is configured to automatically load on startup, yet once I get the error, I open the Add on Manager and I don't see the B1UP in either tab at all.
The error on the TS in the log is here:

hello Ken - Boyum IT has its own License Administration - path of Administration > Add Ons > B1 Usability Package > License Administration...
Do all of the users have a checkmark to give them access???
When a user has only the Main Menu window open, select the "Form Settings" icon and follow the same path on the Form Settings window that is diplayed and make sure they have checkmarks next to the B1 Usability Package to be "Visible".
Are all of the user set to display Boyum IT on their machines???
LOL - I am not technical so I have no idea what that other stuff means...
Hope that helps...

Crystal Reports Dynamic Parameters with SAP Business One

Okay, I've got this very strange issue with dynamic parameters in Crystal Reports connected to SAP Business One.
Let's start with the software versions:
- Crystal Reports 12.3.0.601
- SAP Business One 8.8 (8.80.231) SP: 00 PL: 13
- Windows XP SP3
(SBO Server on Windows 2003 and SQL 2005)
What I'm about to describe is something I've tried in several reports and for which I created a very, very simple test report to see if it was reproducible in a very simple situation.
- I connected to a Business One server through CR's SBO connection type. Logon is successful, tables are shown.
- I pick OCRD and plac CardCode and CardName in the details section on the report. Previewing the report shows data.
- I create a dynamic parameter on CardCode and in the Select Expert I select the CardCode field and define that that should be equal to the parameter.
- I preview the report again. Now it asks me in such a parameter screen for logon credentials. It shows the server and database it tries to connect to and in the username it shows the SQL Server username I used to connect to the SQL Server in the first place. However, the password for that user is not accepted. I also tried to login with the Windows administrator user and with the SBO manager user, but no success with any attempt.
I also tried to add a static parameter and add all database values to the list. Same screen, different result:
Crystal Reports 2008 wrote:
Logon Failed.
Error in File UNKNOWN.RPT:
Unable to connect: incorrect log on parameters. (rptcontrollers.dll)
(On a side note: the report is saved as report1.rpt)
Anyone else got similar issues and found a solution?

Hi,
When you have fixed your crystal installation following the note posted earlier, please take a look at the [how to guide|http://service.sap.com/sapidb/011000358700000882232009E.pdf] and also at the [e-learning|http://service.sap.com/sapidb/011000358700001370262010E] about SAP Business One 8.8 and Crystal Reports.
There are so called "tokens" which you need to use instead of dynamic parameters.
Dynamic paramters don't work in SAP Business One 8.8, if they are not defined as a static paramter with token.
Best regards,
Darius

Unable to download SAP Business One 8.8

Hi All,
We were in the process of trying SAP Business One 8.8.
Unfortunately I have not been able to download the trial software.
My S User ID also happens to be the super administrator.

Any help is appreciated

Hi Gordon,
Thanks for the link. Fom what I understand now is that the preview program has been closed.
The reason I was looking forward to software was to give a working demo to a prospective client.
Is it possible to get the evaluation version for SAP Business One 2007 if not 8.8 or older versions.
Thanks for your help

SAP Business One and Moving Database Issue

We are in the process of moving our PROD system to a new server. The server runs MS SQL 2005. We installed SAP Business One and by default the demo databases went to the C Drive (C:/Program Files/MS SQL Server/..../Data). The SQL Server that exists has data on D partition and logs on E partition. We therefore dettach the database, copy the files to the correct locations, and reattach.
Now, however, the SAP Business One application no longer finds the Company or Demo databases. Is there any way to fix this?
Cheers John

Here my question is that if i provide username and password, Integration Solution for SAP Business One is opened but is not reflecting any data when i am clicking on SLD, Scnarios, Maintaining, Control Centre.......etc.
2) I want to connect to the server through the ipad.
I put the user as mobile user, i have given UDID number of Ipad, phone no of mobile user in SAP Business One.
I have given the server details like IP add: 000.000.000.000:8080 and kept SSL On and given DB Name as SBODemoIN and username as 'ABC'.
When i am entering the password it is reflecting me an error "an ssl error has occurred and a secure connection to the server cannot be made. [-1200]'.
I want to know where i have done the mistake.
Note: i tried by giving ip with B1 port number like : 000.000.000.000:30000 again its reflecting same error.
Can any body help me out.

Lets try to keep it together ...
1.) in SAP Business One you have to set the following settings for the user you want to connect with
a.) checkbox "mobile user" is checked
b.) mobile-number (must be digit by digit the same as you set it in the settings of the App)
c.) UDID of the iPad/iPhone (this is a 40 (!!!) digit alphanumerical number of the device)
ATTENTION - since SBO App. v.1.6.0, the UDID is no longer in use, now yo have to set the W-LAN MAC Adress here
d.) the User has a limited or a professional user license
e.) the user has a B1i licence
2.) settings in the iPad/iPhone App
a.) Server: IP Adress of the Bi1 Integration Server followed by :8443 (e.g.: 91.55.110.15:8443)
8080 is the http port (unsecure), while 8443 is the https port (secure)
b.) SSL: is on
c.) Company DB: the database Name of the company you wanted to connect to (and where you have made the user setting above) (e.g.: SBODemoIN)
d.) Usercocode: the log in name of the user you made the above settings for (e.g.: manager)
e.) Phonenumber: digit by digit the same as above 1.).b.)
f.) Demosystem: needless to say, this is Off
3.) network settings
a.) certainly the port 8443 must be available from outside the network
b.) VPN connection to the network must be possible
c.) the VPN connection setting has to be set in the iPad(iPhone
If this all is set and done,
1.) you first have to establish a VPN connection with your iPad/iPhone
2.) and now/than you should be able to connect to the company with the iPad/iPhone App
Hope this helps and make it e little bit clearer how this all works.
The SBO App is "nothing else" as an WebService-Call-Interface from the iPad/iPhone to the B1i Server. Every form/view you are filling in the App, is a WebService call/request to SAP Business One. To Send this WebService Request to the B1i Server, you first have to connect into the company network (via VPN) otherwise you call cannot reach the B1i Server ...

Hi Gordon,
Yes I know you can select u2018OKu2019 and move on with the entering of a marketing document, however this is an extra click and when you are entering a large number of documents a day this can become painfully and that is the feedback from the customers, is there a reason why this could not be an option in the company settings? I know this will not happen overnight and this is why I posted the question of the development collaboration forum.
Kind regards,
Johnathon

SAP Business One 8.8 Database

I am using SAP Business One 8.8.
In the middle of working in SBO 8.8, it suddenly shut down. When I tried to log in again, the list of companies dissapeared. Seems like there's no database connection. The server and database (Ms SQL server) seem to be up and running. We turn off and on Ms SQL server and it seemed to work now.
According to our source, it indicated this has something to do with the policy in Ms SQL Server. Apparently, we took some companies within the database online and offline. This somehow trigger to lock the 'sa' access and disconnect the database. How do I prevent this from happening again? If this has to post in a different forum, i.e. Ms SQL Server, i will post there accordingly. Thanks.

Hi Gordon,
I checked the log files and it seems like user 'sa' was trying to access the database numerous times. This somehow trigger the Ms SQL Server policy and completely locked out ALL companies in the database. No one is using sa in the company.
The only thing I can think of is when I test crystal report, it prompted 'sa' by default at the database login screen. I normally select 'integrated security' to bypass that screen. However, I was doing that for the past few months and never had problems until yesterday. The 'blank' screen of company list has happened twice.
In SQL Server, I checked off 'enforce password security' for user sa. Will that be enough to fix the problem?
