Modify an RFC called by Web Service

Hi SAP Gurus!
Simple question, for you at least, not for me...
I created an RFC, I created the related Web Service using the wizard and also the WSDL... and all worked correctly!
After I modified the RFC: I changed a parameter table used for import/export adding two more fields.
I think I have to publish the Web Service again, but I don't know how to modify it. Can you help me?
Have I also to generate the WSDL again?
Thank you, regards!
Stefano

Hi,
yes, you shd regenerate the WSDL to effect the changes.
you can also modify the WSDL already created if you know how to do it. or else just regenerate it.

Call a web service in ABAP - how to do LPCONFIG?

I have searched through OSS, SAP help and SDN - and I see the answer if I call a web service from Java - but I cannot find the answer if I call a web service through normal ABAP in R/3.
I apologize if I am asking the same question again or if it is already there and I am just overlooking it.
I am creating a client proxy in R/3 to call an outside web service through ABAP.
I create the client proxy in our test system using SE80.
I create a logical port using LPCONFIG to point at the test web service on the other system.
I code the ABAP program - and everything works great.
I transport the client proxy - and I transport the LPCONFIG information.
Now I get into production - when I do transaction LPCONFIG to change the URL of the web service to be their production web service URL instead of their test web service URL - it asks for the system to be opened.
Like it wants to create a transport. The basis people would have to open the system to be modified. Which at least in our shop is not something we do.
Here is the error:
Message no. TK430
The system administrator has set your logon client to the 'not modifiable' status.
Client-specific objects can not be changed in this client.
Contact the system administrator.
For more information, see the SAP Library under Change and Transport System.
For an ABAP program in R/3 using a client proxy - how do I call a test service in our test r/3 system and a production web service in production R/3 system without changing my ABAP code?
Should this be done through LPCONFIG?
Or what am I missing?
Thanks for your help.

Hi Scott,
Please refer to following URL
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/16/285d32996b25428dc2eedf2b0eadd8/content.htm
I think you are using the second of the following 3 approaches mentioned in above documentation and so credential configuration is not available at run-time.
Please check if this is helpful to you. If you have already looked at this then please ignore this message.
There are three ways of configuring the call address of the Web service:
●     As HTTP destination: Select an RFC destination of type G (HTTP connection to an external server) or type H (HTTP connection to the SAP System) from transaction SM59. The HTTP destination approves the configuration of the logon procedure, encryption, and state management. This is the preferred access procedure.
●     As URL: The URL of the Web service is written to the corresponding input field when you create the logical port. The disadvantage of this procedure is that, with the exception of the URL, no other parameters for logging on, encryption, or state management can be configured. This is possible only for Web services that do not require a logon procedure, encryption, or state management.
●     As local path prefix: This access procedure is only intended for accessing your own system. Here you call the default RFC destination NONE to address your own server. The specified local path prefix is used to identify the called Web service.

Vandana.

Error in calling a web service

hi,
i am facing a problem in calling a web service.
following are the steps i followed.
1. created a client proxy object in transaction se80
2. called that proxy object in my program
3. executed the program
problem
1. an exception 'CX_AI_SYSTEM_FAULT' is caught with error code 'GET_BUSINESS_SYSTEM_ERROR' and error text 'An error occurred when determining the business system (SLD_API_EXCEPTION)'
some facts abt the system:
1. we do not have XI server.
2. i havent created a logical port manually still there exists one entry in table SRT_LP which is as follows-
PROXYCLASS - CO_CAT_PING
LP_NAME - CO_CAT_PING
ACTIVE - A
DEFAULTPORT - X
3. i found error messae in transaction 'sldcheck' as 'Summary: Connection to SLD does not work'
4. i havent created a rfc destination.
please reply ASAP.
thanks in advance,
Sagar

Got a new file for testing the web service and it executed fine. Closing the thread.

Calling a web service In Netweaver 7.0 abap stack through an external alias

Hello,
In CRM 2007 (Netweaver 7.0 abap stack SP 16), we have defined a web service from a module function using the wizard and configuring it with SOAMANAGER.
This web service works great when calling it with the "official" URL, something like :
http://host.domain:port/sap/bc/srt/rfc/sap/zwebservice/client/zoperation/zbinding
We would like to use a more simple URL. So with SICF, I have created an external alias /zwebservice which points to the "official" URL.
The problem is that it does not work. I get every time an HTTP 500 error code and an error Message
u201CThe configuration of the http server is missingu201D.
Do you think that it is possible to call a web service through an external alias ?
Thanks in advance for any ideas or solution !

Calling a Web Service from an Abap Program

Hi Everyone,
I have been put to task to write an RFC that has web service calls within it. My question is if anyone has a coding examples, and or best practices when calling a web service, like connections, event handling, asynchronous, synchronous, return values, xml, acknowledgements.
Thanks a lot,

Calling a web service from BPM without using bridge S/A

Hi Experts,
I want to call a web service from a BPM and I want to call it asyncronously. That is by having my request and my response as a separate interface.
I already did it by calling another BPM, this one with a bridge, but I don't like this solution.
Any ideas?
Regards
Gonzalo

Hi Sanjeev,
EDIT: I was wrong, I have to reconsider your scenario.
Leela,
Watch this:
http://img74.imageshack.us/img74/3536/presentacin2vm9.jpg
The points of my scenario:
-There's a BPM
-Send and Receive in BPM have to be asynchronous
-It have to comunicate with a WS wich is synchronous
-I thought that, may be, playing with the receiver SOAP adapter modules I will achieve to send the response to another SOAP adapter, a sender one, and then have my ASYNC/SINC scenario as it's described here: File - RFC - File without a BPM - Possible from SP 19.

Problem calling a web service via SOAP ad.

Hi,
I need to call a web service in an synchronous RFC to Web service scenario.The provider of service said me that they are going to accept production order with the service they provide. However, service semms to have only 2 request parameters one is a string enumeration ("online" or "offline") but the other has no type. In WSDL it is shown as the following -
-<s:element minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" name="strFilenameOrXML">
- <s:complexType mixed="true">
- <s:sequence>
<s:any />
</s:sequence>
</s:complexType>
</s:element>
When I try to test the web service with Altova XML Spy it gives me the error "Object reference not set to an instance of an object" .. at StokbarPlus.ProdService.WriteProdToSB(XmlNode strFilenameOrXML, IntegrationType EntegrasyonTip)..
I guess the service is waiting for a xmlNode object...
Is it possible to assign an XI message(coming from RFC) as an xmlNode object to an element of a webservice message and send it by using SOAP adapter?.
I tried send the SOAP message by putting the whole xml(a sample order document) as a string constant in the strFilenameOrXML element and send but it did not work...
How should I proceed?
Thanks in advance for your help,
-Tarik

Hi,
Problem is still unsolved.
By the way I figured out that they are waiting the xml message inside strFilenameOrXML tag and tried to send it so. However it does not work. I have tried two different ways to send it.
First one is by using messages in WSDL: did not work because special chars like <,> in the message that I am sending in the tag is escaped .
The Second way is using the data types that I developed, it did not work too since the receiver expects one of the inner node's namespace prefix to exist.
I tried exporting the xsd of the message type, adding attributeFormDefault="qualified" to header, and reimporting it. It did not work, because it changes all nodes, but they want some specific node to be qualified.
Any suggestions?

Unable to call a web service from BPEL Project

I am running my BPEL PM on Windows XP SP3. The platform is weblogic 9.2, SOA 10.1.3.1.
I created a simple BPEL project to call a web service and when I run the project from BPELConsole I getting the following error:
exception on JaxRpc invoke: HTTP transport error: javax.xml.soap.SOAPException: java.security.PrivilegedActionException: javax.xml.soap.SOAPException: Bad response: 407 Proxy Authentication Required ( The ISA Server requires authorization to fulfill the request. Access to the Web Proxy filter is denied. )
I am able to call this web service from soapUI client.
Any help or hint is appreciated.

I have had this issue before when calling a .NET service, it was firewall related. I didn't actually make the fix so I can't tell you exactly how it was fixed on the server. I hope this info makes sense as this this the info I got from the IT boys
I’ve install this tool on your computer:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=05C2C932-B15A-4990-B525-66380743DA89&displaylang=en
which does that:
Firewall Client for ISA Server can be optionally installed on client computers protected by Microsoft ISA Server. Firewall Client for ISA Server provides enhanced security, application support, and access control for client computers. It provides authentication for Winsock applications that use TCP and UDP, supports complex secondary protocols, and supplies user and application information to the ISA Server logs.
When a client computer running Firewall Client for ISA Server makes a request, the destination is evaluated by the Firewall Client software, and external requests are directed to the ISA Server computer for handling. No specific routing infrastructure is required. Firewall Client sends user information transparently with each request, enabling you to create a firewall policy on the ISA Server computer with rules that use the authentication credentials presented by the client. ISA Server allows you to configure automatic discovery for Firewall client computers, using a WPAD entry in DNS or DHCP to obtain correct Web proxy settings for clients, depending on their location.
and I’ve added a exception in IE to the tools-lan settings-advanced-exceptions to be creditworks.* Did this by modifying the GPO that applies to your account, so all the users in National Office should have that exception.
hope you can use this.

Call ABAP Web Service with Java code only

Hi all,
First of all, I am writing script in Adobe form but am not using the one in SAP.
I am trying to call the web service and process the result with script open (i.e. no dataconnection created), because I am trying to do that in a dialog.
I can call a non-SAP web service without problem, but I am not able to call a simple web service with only a single string input, anyone have any example?
Here is the SOAP for input:
<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:urn="urn:sap-com:document:sap:rfc:functions">
   <soapenv:Header/>
   <soapenv:Body>
      <urn:Z_RFC_GET_STAFF_BANK_INFO>
         <A_STAFF_ID>0123456</A_STAFF_ID>
      </urn:Z_RFC_GET_STAFF_BANK_INFO>
   </soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>
Here is my code to call:
     var cURL = "http://some-host-name:port/sap/bc/srt/wsdl/bndg_DEDB492BB032E7F1B09F001CC4FBCEC9/wsdl11/allinone/ws_policy/document?sap-client=300";
     var response = SOAP.request(
          cURL: cURL,
          oRequest: {
               "urn:sap-com:document:sap:rfc:functions:Z_RFC_GET_STAFF_BANK_INFO": {
                    A_STAFF_ID: "0123456"

Hello I have the same problem, were you able to execute the WS through the JS code now?
I would like to call an ABAP WS using JavaScript to return complex structures that I would like to manage directly with JS.
I tried with this code and I get the error "RaiseError: Acrobat Raise." when the request is executed:
var WSUrl = "http://<server>:<port>/sap/bc/srt/wsdl/bndg_4D15C75529330AF1E10000000A150429/wsdl11/allinone/ws_policy/document?sap-client=500";
var VendorNumber = xfa.form.DATA.DATAFLOW.SF_HEADER.VENDOR_NUMBER.rawValue;
try {
// Create request structure, read Input out of text field
var request = {
          "urn:sap-com:document:sap:soap:functions:mc-style:ZWsTest" : {ILifnr: VendorNumber}
SOAP.wireDump = true;
// Call web service using SOAP object
var response = SOAP.request ({
        cURL: WSUrl,
        oRequest: request
//        cAction: "urn:sap-com:document:sap:soap:functions:mc-style"
} catch (e) {
    xfa.host.messageBox(e.toString()); //pop-up "TypeError:service.CelsiusToFahrenheit is not a funciton"
with this other code I get the error "SOAPError: CX_ST_MATCH_ELEMENT:XSLT exception.System expected element 'ILifnr'":
try {
    var myProxy = SOAP.connect(WSUrl);
    var result = myProxy.ZWsTest( { ILifnr: VendorNumber } );
    xfa.form.DATA.DATAFLOW.SF_HEADER.E_DESCRIPTION.rawValue = result;
// Display the response in the console:
   console.println("Result is " + result);
} catch (e) {
    xfa.host.messageBox(e.toString()); //pop-up "TypeError:service.CelsiusToFahrenheit is not a funciton"
in the second option, if I make the field ILifnr optional the call is succesfully performed but the parameter is not passed to the WS. So the call is working.

How to create an Extensible Conectivity 2.0 MA that call a web service in FIM 2010 R2?

I created my web service to create, update and delete users from one of our systems.
Now I am to create MA to use my web service and export users into that system, there is no need to import!
I tried to use web service configuration tool but had lots of errors and could not find an example of configuring run profiles.
Now I am trying to write Extensible Conectivity 2.0 Management Agent. I need help as there is no examples available for how to call/use web service in MA.
Thanks

Hello Emadina
You need a web service reference in your Management Agent Extension code to get access to the exposed functions.
And you not only need functions to create/modify/delete objects, you also need a function to read the objects from the custom data source for two reasons:
a) to be able to join your existing objects
b) for confirming imports.
I think the best point to start your own Extensible Management Agent extension is the following link:

RFC works but web service for that RFC does not work..weird??

hi all,
I created an RFC enabled function module to create a Sales Order in SAP CRM for both for Varinat Configurable and Normal Materials.
The RFC Works well...if i test it..it creates an order and if i go and check the sales order in CRM GUI. i find that sales order is perfect with the configuration data for the configurable items..
Now i created a Web service for this RFC by calling the Web service creation wizard.
Now i am testing the Web service in SOAMANGER T-code and the sales order is created and weird thing the configuration data is missing for Varinat configurable item..
But i dont encounter this problem if i am testing the RFC directly
What could be wrong...why is my web service behaving weird?
I am dying to find this out..did any body enocunter this situation befor ..please help

Sure Oliver..
I put a break point using external debugger and when i was testing the Web service in SOAMANAGER..
i could then land into ABAP debugger.
There in my RFC i put a logic such that i diffenetiate between VC and Non-VC items and fill the Charateristic Values only if it is aVC item.
I saw that the IF condition was not executing as they suddenly changed the material structure in ECC and it reflected in CRM.
SO i am inputting 18 digits of material no like '000000000000000001' for '1'...but the if condition was checking against 1 =1 so that loop never executed and chara values are not getting filled.
But if i test RFC in se37 ..it works as i am inputting 1...
Since Web service works with XML (WSDL) need to be very careful with the format in which data is inputted and the format in which the logic we wrote in RFC works.
Once again ..thanks to all people who helped me with the answers...
Regards,
Jessica Sam

Sending Table data using RFC as a Web services

Hi guys,
I want to send ztable data from CRM system using RFC as a web service , but i want to read records only for a particular date and time , so how can i go about this scenario.
regards;Keith.

Hi Keith,
for that scenario you need two RFC adapter. Of course you can use as well proxies as dicussed before. Forget about webservices.
You told me above that you have z-table? add a date/time field and if a set will be inserted fill those fields with sy-datum / sy-uzeit.
Your CRM select can now easy select only the actual data.
Because of performance i would recommed a asynchron scenario, for example:
A ABAP programm is selecting the data and is calling a module like
CALL function 'myFunction'
DESTINATION 'mySM59'
IN BACKGROUND TASK
This function module is build anywhere and imported into Repository and is working a outbound interface. Inbound interface is a second function module, which is imported from R/3. The ABAP source code of that module put the data to SAP system.
The CRM ABAP programm will be called periodicly by a job.
But!! I dont know ur requirements. Unfortunately you are one of thesse persons, who are asking without giving details. I'm not the prophet...
Regards,
Udo

What is the difference between RFC vs. Web service ?

What is the difference between RFC vs. Web service ?

Hi,
Remote Function Call (RFC) is the standard SAP interface for communication between SAP systems. RFC calls a function to be executed in a remote system.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/6f/1bd5b6a85b11d6b28500508b5d5211/content.htm
A 'Web service' (also Web Service) is defined by the W3C as "a software system designed to support interoperable machine-to-machine interaction over a network". Web services are frequently just Web APIs that can be accessed over a network, such as the Internet, and executed on a remote system hosting the requested services.

Does any one have insights about it?

Hi Swapna,
from your screenshot it seems that you actually try to call the service in your Data Source Expression field. You should set path to the WSDL file here actually - this could be either URL to SAP or to filesystem, as Anton suggested (this could be faster). Have you created endpoint binding for your service in transaction SOAMANAGER? If yes, then simply download the corresponding WSDL with binding or copy the URL which leads to it. But also test whether you are able to retrieve the WSDL without logging into SAP (close all browser windows and then open a new one otherwise session ID from other browser windows can be reused).
If you have to give username and password, then setup anonymous alias in transaction SICF, for example.
Pleas, check my previous post on the same subject here: Re: BCM7 IVR : SOAP request for client identification in CRM .
Maybe it could help.
Regards,
Dawood.
