Mobile Procurement

We are going to install a demo of the mobile procurement. But i can't
find any good information on witch release to use. We have SRM server
5.0, EBP 4.0 running on a WAS 6.40. And MI 2.5
Is the mobile procurement 3.0 released?
Where can I find the documentation? I can only find documentation for the Mob Procurement 2.0.
Where can I download these applications? I can't find it under download->inst and uppg->SAP solutions for Mobile Business
Can anyone please help.
Best Regards
Morten G

Morten- Did you ever find any information about Mobile Procuremnet 3.0? If so, can you tell me where? Do you know anyone who has implemented this?
Thanks any information would be helpful.

Problem while receiving a mail in blackberry using offline approval

Dear SRM Gurus,
We are working with SRM Server 5.5, SP08.
We are using offline approval functionality using Blackberry device. We
have observed that in an approval mail sent to blackberry, the approver
does not see hyperlink for "Approve by mail" or "Reject by mail" text.
However, when the same approval mail is checked on any other mail
application like gmail or yahoo, we are able to get an hyperlink and
approve the work item.
While execution of report "RBBP_NOTIFICATION_OFFAPP", we have selected
a checkbox "with approval links".
Kindly suggest, how can we rectify this problem. We will appreciate your immediate help.
Thanks in advance,

Hi
Yes, but for this you need have SAP MI (mobile infrastructure) configured in the landscape. MI is part of SAP NW. Integration of MI is possible with SRM2.0 and upwards.

SRM Offline Approval via Blackberries

Hi,
We're on SRM 5.5. With the Offline Approval using RBBP_NOTIFICATION_OFFAPP or RSWUWFMLE programs, has anyone managed to setup offline approval to work via Blackberries.
Thank you for your help.

How to provide Offline/disconnected SAP functionality?

A client has SAP ERP deployed at a single location with users accessing the SAP system from multiple sites - a fairly common situation but in this case they have significant communication problems between the various sites and the SAP system. As a result, they experience frequent outages which are obviously not acceptable. They are looking to resolve this problem and I am looking for ideas/comments on possible approaches.
What they need is offline or disconnected SAP functionality at each user location that can automatically synchronize with the main SAP system whenever connectivity is available. Building such a functionality from scratch for this client is obviously not a cost-effective solution. So, I am looking for off-the-shelf products that might help solve the problem - a couple of possibilities that I ran into that seem worthy of further investigation are -
SAP Solutions for Mobile Business - need to look at this more to understand how seamless you can make the online/offline modes from a user perspective.
SAP Interactive Forms by Adobe - this option looks less appealing as the online/offline modes are dramatically different from a user perspective
A key point is that the client is initially looking to make functionality from the SD, MM, and FI modules available in an offline mode.
I still have not googled adequately for other possible alternatives and will be doing so as well. However, I was wondering if there are any suggestions from SAP professionals on what may be good options for me to look at.

Hi Vivek,
SAP Solutions for Mobile Business enables enterprises to mobilize their existing investment through a universal platform and ready-made scenarios to all popular devices in both connected and disconnected environments.
MI (Mobile Infrastructure) can be a good solution to the Business needs.

Direct and in direct procurement

Hi experts,
What is the Diff between Direct and In-direct procurement in SRM and i want to to config for Classic sceanrio.
basis team has given me the servers now please let me know basic Config settings to Implement SAP SRM classic scenario,integrate with ECC.
Smriti

Hi Smriti,
Indirect Procurement = The procurement what you do is not used in the end product of the manufacturing compay. Like Office peripherals,Computers, Stationary. What ever you have procured is not used in your end product
The business scenario is Self Service procurement. Configuration part you can get from master guide from service market place
Direct Procurement: The procurement what you do is used in your end product of the manufacturing compay. Example: If a mobile manufacturer company procures the keypads,battery,dispay screen...all these material is used in the end product. So these kind of procurement you called as direct procurement.
Configuration for Direct Procuremtn will be as follows
In R/3
1. You need to configure two views i,e V_T160PR,V_T160EX and you need to schedule report BBP_EXTREQ_TRANSFER
In SRM.
1. Do the Technical settings like RFC Connections,Workflow Activations,Publish Templates
2.(Imp Config)Dedine an entry channel for this (Create a new Org unit which acts as )
3. Create a RFC user, so that communcation goes between R/3 and SRM
4.In Org structure you have to define values for an attribute DP_PROC_TY .
These are the config required for a PDP.
Hope this explanation resolved your query

Mobile Supply Chain

hello
This is on r12.1.3
We are in the process of implementing Mobile Supply Chain applications.
And for that we need to procure hand held scanners. Question is, which ones?
Does Oracle recommend any specific brand for handheld scanners that are optimized or set as standard for MSCA? We are leaning towards Honeywell as they are traditionally known to work with Oracle products, but open to new suggestions (if any). If you can refer a link or white paper from Oracle, it will help.
Thanks,
Darsh

Cannot retrieve business partners in SAP mobile iPad

Hello Colleagues,
since some days I'm not able to retrieve business partners in my SAP mobile App.
Neither in iPad nor in iPhone.
I tried it on 2 different test servers.
A couple of day's before I saw all the business partners.
The only change I did in the last days was executing the steps regarding the Java JRE that was recommended by SAP Note 1582526.
In the Message-Log I've found the following:
The SQL-Exception with the ErrorCode 242 points to a conversion error from the given Date-String to a DateTime Value.
The Date-String is automatically inserted by the (whatever) system, it is the current date.
Is there a possibility to change the DateTime Format so the query can pass thru and I can see the business-partners?
Thank you in advance
Rudy.

Problem solved
After setting the language of the sql server "sa" from german to english, everything works fine.
I don't know why this problem occurred. I never changed the language before...
Cheers
Rudy

I designed a site for a customer, exported HTML, customer wanted to launch the site themselves so when they did so it will not work on a mobile device or tablet but is fine on the PC browser.

The customer is using AT&T as the host, it seems to automatically map to the a mobile site when on a phone or tablet, could the mapping to a tablet site be on AT&T's end?
I never setup the tablet or mobile site through Muse.

As you don't include a link or other copy of your code there is no way we can answer this… however:
Upload a copy of the site to bc (business catalyst) from Muse or Dreamweaver (if Muse can't) as a temp web site then test that the code works for laptop and phones. If it works on your bc site then your code IS correct and you have answered the main question as yes AT&T is the issue… this is basic testing and you (seriously) already should have done it before letting your client see it.

Stream 8 tablet location does not work on T-mobile broadband

On my HP Stream 8 tablet, location works fine with GPS only (GNSS on; Mobile Broadband, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth off).
However, if I turn on Mobile Broadband and connect to T-Mobile and turn off GNSS (or GNSS on inside where there is no GPS signal) and keep Wi-Fi and Bluetooth off, the location gives very odd results. Last week the map showed Phoenix as my location (I am actually located in San Francisco). This week, it gives Brentwood or Clayton, CA, both more than 30 miles away.
HP tech support said call T-Mobile. T-Mobile said they had occasionally seen equally odd locations.
I went to a nearby T-Mobile store. They had a Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 which always gave a correct location, within 100 feet using T-Mobile alone. Manually moving the map to a different location in an attempt to confuse it and turning it on and off, it would still find the correct location. No surprise there, my three year old Virgin Mobile LG android cell phone does just as good a job at finding locations.
(The T-mobile store also had an iPad Mini 3 that I was able to confuse. On T-Mobile alone and clicking on My Location in maps, it produced a grid that was blank except for a line saying that it was unable to find a location, no info or link to what to do next. The T-Mobile store did not have a Stream 8. The Microsoft Store has a Stream 8 but it is not connected to Mobile Broadband.)
Does anyone else have this problem? Is my unit defective? There are times that a GPS signal is unavailable and a T-mobile broadband signal is available, and it seems that this unit should be able to find a location at least as well as my cell phone.
Thanks.

I see the same basic results, wifi=off, bluetooth=off, gnss=off, t-mobile=on. Open win8.1 map-app shows my location in LA south of the 101/110 junction. I'm in SF Bay area near San Jose about 400 miles away. Turn on wifi and map-app shows me at my real address. With t-moile only, opened win8.1 IE, went to www.bing.com/maps location also shows LA.
My only t-mobile account is the stream8 free 200mb/month data plan, don't think they have my real address anywhere. My t-mobile "phone" number is 720 area code in the Denver area. No idea why middle of LA is the t-mobile location. Must be a "feature, not a bug".

My Weather Mobile

For you weather junkies like me, this is the greatest weather app yet for the iPhone.
Be forewarned however:
I downloaded and installed this app last night and immediately was unable to connect (spinning wheel) to any of my mail accounts. Pandora would take forever to load and when it did it would play for 10 seconds.
Deleted My Weather Mobile, restarted the phone and all was back to normal with both mail and Pandora.
Other than the phone, Mail is my most important app and then Pandora.
I will try to contact the My weather Mobile folks to see if they have any answers.
Just FYI.

You're talking about two separate issues. Push notifications are available for 3rd party apps (a feature of 3.0) - IM apps, AP news, etc., make use of them. An app must be specifically written to use Apple's Push Notification servers. I don't see that My Weather Mobile supports Push notifications at all - so, if you're expecting them to, any delay is on their end, not Apple (and AT&T has nothing to do with Push notifications, other than carrying the data just like email or web browsing).
MMS is also a feature of iPhone OS 3.0, but that one requires cell carrier support. Carriers in many countries worldwide support MMS for the iPhone, but AT&T currently does not. They have stated they will support MMS on the iPhone in "late Summer" - summer ends on September 22nd.

Mobile Me CONTACTS not coming down to iOS4 and lost visual voicemail

I updated my 3GS to iOS4 and everything seems to be working, howver my contacts haen't repopulated the phone form Mobile Me. they are all still there on Mobile Me, but when I go to contacts on the iPhone, there are none and unlike previously, opening contacts on the phone does not force a sync (no spinning clock-wheel)...
I have tried turning off the Mobile Me setting on the iphone and then restarting it, but still no contacts...
I also lost my visual voicemail.... when I go to voicemail, it wants me to physically dial up voicemail...
Any ideas here?

Try turning off push and instead fetch every 15 minutes. There seems to be a bug that prevents data from getting through on push. Hope they remedy this soon!
Huh? A "bug" would affect all devices using the OS. I have no idea what you are talking about as push worked just fine here after allowing a little time for my phone to be re-provisioned by the network. That took longer than normal due, I'm sure, to the large number of folks trying to do the same thing I was. And we've all hear AT&T whine that we evil iPhone users are breaking their network.

Responsive Mobile Menus: Open and close on browser, but not in mobile?

I have two responsive jquery menus I am working with. In the desktop browser they both look and operate fine (full screen and mobile size), but when that same responsive page with menu is viewed on an actual phone (Android and iphone), the menus both: SHOW FULLY OPENED WITH ALL PARENT AND CHILDREN?
I believe I installed everyting properly (especially since it resizes and works perfect in a normal desk browser) -Dropsdown and Contracts back.
Does anyone have any experience with this issue (Responsive menus works fine in a desktop browser, but shows completely opened, and will not drop or contract when viewed on an actual mobile phone, like Android or iphone?), and if so any guidance?
Thanks very much

Wow, you save me alot of time and headaches. You really know alot and are very helpful and taught me alot. Thank you for helping me, this is my first site I am still trying to build/get up, after years of on-off trying / learning/ abandoning (for other pursuits). This site is really important for me, and would mean alot for me to finally follow through on building.
Do you know if this forums allows (or do you ever) add friends/contacts so you can message each other? I am somewhat a 'newbie', so I understand if problem, I would not bug/bother you, just curious and fully understand if not. (or do you ever contact via email, website, or other)?
Also re: Vanilla Testing: I always test all my stuff on a blank HTML page with only the Boilerplate and JS that Dreamweaver provides. I don't know if I have the capability to fully do in something like notepad? Will this method (Boiler, JS, and blank HTML) suffice--No other Scripts--Not even my stylesheet?
What do you think about this menu. Features seem good, has the most sales, good developer and support?

BIP Report in Siebel mobile is not working in languages other than English

Hi,
We have upgraded our Siebel from 7.8 to Siebel 8.1 and in that we have moved from Actuate to BIP Reports. We have created a customized report in which we have put in the Filters on '.rtf' file to show a particular set of data. This report is deployed for 3 languages : English (ENU), Portuguese (PTB) and Spanish (ESN).After deploying this report, on Web application, it is working fine for all the languages but we are facing an issue on mobile client, the report is only working fine in ENU but for other languages(PTB & ESN) it is failing (means the filter which we put on '.rtf' is not working on other languages).
Is anybody face this issue and what will be the solution for this?

Hi
I think you need to first translate the smartform into other languages. Before translation, it wont work.
Steps for translation:
1. goto Transaction SE63
2. in R3 Enterprise select form menu
Translation - ABAP Objects - Other long texts
3. select FS - SSF-Smart Form
4. Object Name: choose your smart form
5. select target language
6. press edit

Vishwa.

Print Message Report from Mobile

thank you very much

I haven't really done much enhancements on MAM 2.5, but Im sure sami will let you know where to add the code, or you can review the MAM enhancement guide on the CD.
In regards to printing the PIOS API is pretty simple. If you are using a laptop to print to a normal printer then you can just use the Win32 Drivers..(installed via driver addon from web sap console.)If you are using the handheld you will need to find the appropriate drivers.
Here is some code I used in one of my applications:
 Connector conn = Connector.getInstance();
 DriverInfo[] driverInfo = conn.listDrivers(ConnectionType.PRINTER);
 PrinterParameters params = new PrinterParameters(driverInfo[0]);
 params.setPrinterMode(PrinterParameters.GRAPHIC_MODE);
 GraphicPrinter gp = (GraphicPrinter) conn.open(params);
 File myImage = new File("c:
smalllogo.bmp");
 if (myImage.exists()) {
 float x = 0;
 float y = 50;
 try {
 String[] sFonts =
 gp.getFontConfigurationManager().listFontNames();
 PrinterFont pf = gp.getFont(sFonts[0]);
 gp.drawText(
 pf,
 25,
 25,
 "TO For Delivery # = "
 + dbAccess.getItemFieldValue(arrayItems[0], "VBELN"),
 GraphicPrinter.NO_ROTATION);
 for (i = 0; i < arrayItems.length; i++) {
 gp.drawText(
 pf,
 25,
 y,
 "Delivery Item # = "
 + dbAccess.getItemFieldValue(
 arrayItems,
 "POSNR"),
 GraphicPrinter.NO_ROTATION);
 y = y + 10;
 gp.drawText(
 pf,
 25,
 y,
 "Material # = "
 + dbAccess.getItemFieldValue(
 arrayItems,
 "MATNR"),
 GraphicPrinter.NO_ROTATION);
 y = y + 10;
 gp.drawText(
 pf,
 25,
 y,
 "Quantity to Pick = "
 + dbAccess.getItemFieldValue(
 arrayItems,
 "LFIMG"),
 GraphicPrinter.NO_ROTATION);
 y = y + 25;
 gp.doPrint(1);
 gp.close();
 } catch (Throwable tFile) {
 tFile.printStackTrace();
 }
This should give you an idea, you should also read through the MDK documentation for the printer API (PIOS). Its quite easy to pick up and as long as you have the driver and connector installed it prints right away.(You could also use the Peripheral emulator in
NWDS to test the code first)
Hope this helps,
Wael..
