New ESS/MSS in ABAP web dynpro??

I heard from a somebody that the new ESS/MSS is going to be redeveloped by SAP on ABAP Web dynpro instead of java? Does anybody have info on this? or any links on articles, news etc.?

You need to replace the T&E portal content and Homepage Framework config (if using it) for the "older" Webdynpro Java version with the newer (EhP2) Webdynpro ABAP version. There is a very good step-by-step guide (I believe in Service Marketplace) that guides you through each and every change to make to switch one with the other. To your immediate questions...
(1) Those are the replacements for the WDJ iViews. They are pretty much the same. As said, you need to "switch them out".
(2) Switch out the WDJ iView with  the WDA iView. The parameter needs to reflect YOUR ESS ROLE pcd path to the object. (the one you show is the standard SAP ESS role....which is fine if you are just using it as is).
Again, best to find that guide. I used it on my last project and it took all of maybe 30 min. to switch the old for new if you follow it.
Also, read all the help.sap.com info on it....

  • ESS 1.2 - ABAP Web Dynpro Clarifications

    Hi all,
    We are on Ehp 2 in ECC 6.0 with ESS 1.2 in EP 7.0 and using only 'Travel & Expense' part for our implementation. I have below clarifications
    1. In ESS 1.2 package we have an Overview page and iView, I believe it is for JAVA Web Dynpro, will this support for ABAP Web Dynpro iViews or how to bring ABAP WebDynpro applications with Overview ?
    2. I have Mirrored the ESS PCD Content and modified only 'Invisible in Navigation Areas' parameter. Now the issue I am facing is while selecting button 'Create Travel Request' under 'My Trips and Expenses'. The request is fetching the original content navigation instead of the new Mirrored content. Also while debugging we find the routing 'Navigation Context' as below:
    DynamicParameter=SAP_FITV_ACTION=&SAP_FITV_EXIT_OP=CallTripsPOWL&SAP_FITV_TRIPCMP=R&HistoryMode=1&NavigationContext=ROLES://portal_content/com.sap.pct/every_user/com.sap.pct.erp.ess.bp_folder/com.sap.pct.erp.ess.roles/com.sap.pct.erp.ess.employee_self_service/com.sap.pct.erp.ess.employee_self_service/com.sap.pct.erp.ess.area_travel_expenses/com.sap.pct.erp.ess.12.request
    Is this parameter set by default to fetch the content ? Is it possible to change this entry, if yes, how ?
    Kindly let me know if any clues.
    Thanks!

  • Open a new outlook  email with Abap Web Dynpro

    Hi Experts,
    I'm developing an abap web dynpro application, and at the end of a text I need to have a link that opens the outlook for sending and email, do you know how can this be done with ABap Web dynpro.
    Regards and thanks.
    Fona

    It should be noted that just relying on the browser handling for the [url mailto: reference|http://www.w3.org/TR/WD-html40-970708/htmlweb.html] does not guarantee handling by any specific email application. It is completely up to the browser implementation - The HTML 4.0 spec does not specify any handling other than:
    MAILTO URLs have the following syntax:
    mailto:email-address
    User agents may support MAILTO URL extensions that are not yet Internet standards (e.g., appending subject information to a URL with the syntax "?Subject=my%20subject" where any space characters are replaced by "%20").
    Then again - given that WDA supports so few browsers (user agents!), you could probably get around the different support in each them in a reasonably common way.
    To ensure that it is MS Outlook you are launching and potentially pass more data into that email you'll need to make use of the [ACFExecute functionality|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70ehp1/helpdata/en/47/b91539878a2d67e10000000a42189c/frameset.htm] and then also the [command-line interface of Outlook.|http://www.brighthub.com/office/collaboration/articles/21840.aspx]

  • Hi Friends: Do we have ESS and MSS in ABAP web dynpros

    Hi Forum,
    Do we have SAP std. web dynpros on ESS and MSS , do you list out this ABAP web dyn on this..
    Thanks in Advance,
    Srinivas M.

    Hi , Vivek has right, SAP is slowly migrating WDJ/BSP applications to WDA technology.
    In fact, referring to Employee Self-Service, since 1.5, all aplications come in WebDynpro ABAP technology (Note [1450179|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1450179])
    Referring to Manager Self-Service, the change was more gradually; for example, for Compensations (ECM) since 1.0 some reports already come in WDA, but in MSS 1.4 the Planification app arrives in WDA.
    Most applications for HR Administrator was converted to WDA since 1.2 version (EHP2).
    For a app-to-app check you can go directly to help.sap.com, then enter by business package until app, and look for Technical Data table, Runtime Technology field.
    Best regards!

  • ABAP Web Dynpro application in new UWL tab

    Hi All,
    I have been looking for an option to open a web dynrpo abap application in a new tab in UWL which i created. I have been searching on SDN for this but i could only find the help docs which say how to open a task in web dynrpo abap application.
    But in my case i want to open a web dynpro abap application on click of a  new tab in UWL. The WD ABAP application doesn't have any workflow task.
    Also is it possible to restrict the tabs which user see based on their roles ?
    please help me on this.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    how did  you  open in administrative mode?
    to open in adminstrative mode do as follows:
    In se80 ,i.e in the menu bar:
    Web Dynpro Application->Test->Test in Administation mode.
    i hope u can see the option "Settings for surrent config" .
    you can refer the thread.

  • Anything new about abap web dynpro?

    Hi out there!
    (First, I'm sorry: I know, this question is related to Web AS General-forum, but I think, I wouldn't get any answer there.)
    Is there anything new about abap web dynpro? Just saying wait for nw05? No nice preview/minisap/promotion? Perhaps documents in service.sap.com? I read, it is used in some ramp-ups for ecc 05 (neither knowing, what it is). Is there nothing to say about? Is it drag&drop deployment like java webdynpro or more coding like mvc-"Basteln" in abap/bsp? Are BSP-Extensions used there? Something exiting new?
    That are enougth questions for starting.

    Brian McKellar is gonna lock this thread:-)
    Anyway you can find some info about WebDynpro for ABAP in the Teched 2003 presentations in SDN and there is a quite detailed overview with examples in the Online help.
    For the linux version of NW'04 MiniSAP the non-supported version ABAP Dynpro is available....anyway for MiniSAP you don't get support;-)
    Peter
    Ps: "Something exiting new?"
    The whole thing is something really exiting!!!

  • ABAP Web Dynpro V/S JAVA Web Dynpro

    We need to pick developing technology between ABAP Web Dynpro v/s JAVA Web Dynpro. Is technology better than other in terms of security, scalability? There is lot of documentation on the web but it is very old and out dated. I am pretty sure things have changed quite a bit with recent versions of SAP. Any feedback is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.
    PS: I Used Web Dynpro for ABAP at my previous client for SAP SRM without a problem.

    Dear Sap Fan      
    This has been a long and interesting debate on SDN.
    You will find plenty of posts discussing this matter.
    But there's no clear winner, I warn you.
    ;o)
    This one in particular is very good:
    [http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/index?rid=/library/uuid/e0e4940c-035c-2b10-0b9d-eb8f99674f4e]
    But you can also check these others:
    [webdynpro java or abap;
    [Webdynpro Java or ABAP;
    [Webdynpro Java or ABAP;
    [Webdynpro Java or Abap ?;
    More and more you see clients migrating from WD4J to WD4A.
    Guess SAP is also heading into that direction, perhaps because Oracle bought SUN sometime ago.
    I'm comfortable on both environments I have to say.
    I have more than 10 years with development.
    I know ABAP from inside out.
    I also know JAVA and I'm certified with this technology.
    But I personally prefer WD4A.
    Why ?
    Because you don't need to use NWDI.
    Because you don't need to configure JCO's.
    Because you integrate seamlessly the development with the transport framework (requests, etc..)
    Because debugging is great.
    Because plenty of traditional ABAP tools (trace, logs, performance analysers, etc..) can also be used with WD4A
    Because you don't need to worry with NWDS...just type SE80 and you're there... ;o)
    And I could go on and on....
    But then again, it all depends:
    Do you have a lot of good in-house JAVA knowledge ?
    Do you use a lof of Custom JAVA development in your company ?
    Are you planning to use standard SAP (ESS/MSS or others for example) ?
    I'm not saying that WD4A is "better" than WD4J.
    There's no such thing.
    Each option has its pros and cons.
    You also can't tell that WD4J is more secure or scalable than WD4A. Or the opposite.
    And, believe me, WD4J is still going strong with a lot of customers.
    But things are changing, and for me WD4A would make more sense if you want to be aligned with SAP.
    Now and in the future.
    Kind Regards

  • Creating 'Z' views for Standard ABAP Web dynpro Application

    Hi Experts,
    I am totaly new to ABAP web dynpro objects.
    In our project there were some client requirements which required us to change the properties of the Views related to the Webdynpro. The Client now has said that he needs to apply some  enhancement pathces on his system. Due to this, the changes made to the Views i.e all the changes done in standard code are  lost.
    The client now wants a long term solution where all the changes need to be done in 'Z' implimentataion so that changes are not lost every time the pathces are applied.
    Is it possible to create an entire new 'Z' Views for the standard Webdynpro instead of standrad ones?
    If Yes how does one link them to the Webdynpro application ?

    Hi
    Have a look at following article about enhancing webdynpro applications.
    http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/700317da-bd79-2c10-368e-8f18bf5d8b81?quicklink=index&overridelayout=true

  • ABAP Web Dynpro Application changes in Administation Mode no longer working

    Hi Gurus,
    To apply customizing to a standard SAP Web Dynpro application we used to simply run the application in administration mode. After we changed a parameter to allow for theme application this adminstration mode no longer works. Right-Click simply acts as if you are running the application normally. We have tried to remove our parameter but this had no effect.
    How can we "fix" this error without creating a new custom configuration which will cause the URL to change?
    Thanks,
    Garth

    Hi,

  • Use of multiple components in ABAP WEB DYNPRO

    Hi,
    Am  new to  abap web dynpro and I just want to know whether  we  can  use  multiple components for an application in web dynpro.
    Thanks ,
    Dhaya.G
    Edited by: Dhayalinie Ganesh on Feb 22, 2012 12:06 PM

    Hi,
    depending requirement of application we can use multiple components.
    for example if we want to display table data into alv grid for that we can use the existing(standard component) ie: SALV_WD_TABLE  .Like such a way we can use the components as per our requirements.
    For importing components:
    --> Go to properties tab of view of your web dynpro application
    --> There you can find one button create controller usage ,click on it then import the components
    Thanks&Regards

  • ABAP Web dynpro iview in your own namespace

    Dear All,
       We have our own name space in ECC under which all our portal development have taken place. When we test our abap web dynpro application it works fine as we have created a new node in SICF /<namespace>/webdynpro.
    But now when we create ABAP webdynpro IView in portal it always opens up the iview with http://hostname:port/sap/bc/webdynpro/<namespace>/webdynpro/applicationname
    where as we want
    http://hostname:port/<namespace>/webdynpro/applicationname
    Thanks.
    Naveen.

    Hello Naveen,
    To begin with -
    Is there any specific need to have separate namespace at ECC level.
    I believe name space is more relevant at the Java stack where we have com.abc instead of com.sap.
    You define ZA and ZC for your Web Dynpro App and Component respectively & placed under ZXXX package name.
    So the custom is clearly distinguishable from standard. So, is there a strong business need to define a separate namespace in ECC ?
    By default when you create your Z WD - It gets added under /sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/za_* for instance.
    So long story short - It is better to house your custom WD ABAP under standard SAP namespace, taking care of other Z conventions. Because from Portal integration stand point this works better currently (could be a framework limitation at this point).
    In your case -
    see if you have 2 WDA services under default and custom namespace in SICF. In case of duplicate deactivate the one you dont require. Make a reference from iView and specify the custom namespace in the iView.
    Worst case switch to Option # 1.
    Hope this helps ! ~ Dhanz

  • ABAP Web Dynpro Window Inactive After Closing Popup Window

    Hello ABAP'ers
    I have a custom ABAP Web dynpro applications that uses multiple tiers of popup windows.  This application was functioning properly in our ECC6.0, Basis release 7.00 Service level 15 environment.  However, we are currently installing EHP4 and moving or basis release to 7.01 service level 5. In this new environment, when multiple popup window tiers are closed simultaneously, the underlining window is not re-activated.
    Here's a more specific description:
    The application starts with a control panel window presenting a series of buttons.  Selecting one of these buttons activates a modal (I know... all web dynpro popups are modal) popup window for the purpose of maintaining some object.  If the user attempts to exit this window without saving the changes, another popup window appears asking if they want to save their changes.  If they say no, both the popup window asking the question and the popup maintenance window are closed, thus returning the user to the switchboard.
    The problem is that none of the functionality on the switchboard is active. the user must manually refresh the URL to "reactivate" the switchboard. 
    When only a single popup window is closed, the underlying window is properly reactivated.  The problem only occurs when multiple popups are closed together.
    Has anybody else seen this occur? Any ideas / notes around to correct it?
    Any info is greatly appreciated.

  • Report Varaint in ABAP web dynpro

    Hello All,
    I am currently working on an ABAP Web dynpro development.
    I am developing a Report, where the requirement is to have Variants (same as that of GUI reports).
    The user can select the particular variant, which will populate the selection screen.
    I am new to ABAP Web dynpro and am unaware whether Standard functionality of Variants is available for Web dynpro?
    Can you please tell me whether Variants is available for Web dynpro?
    Thanks and Regards,
    Pratik

    Hi Pratik.
    You could define the select options in a table per variant.
    Depending on the selected variant you read the corresponding selection fields
    from that table and populate the select options fields in wddoinit.
    Then just call submit report afterwards.
    AFAIK there is no standard functionality for that.
    Cheers,
    Sascha
