New To SAP/PHP - Introduction

Hey everybody,
I'm glad to see such an active PHP development community here!
I just wanted to introduce myself because I'll probably be hanging around here a lot.
My company is on a fast-track implementation of SAP and I'm solely responsible for the web integration so customers can log into our e-store, purchase on-line, and receive item updates and invoice information dynamically on the web.
Background: I've been developing PHP applications (intranet and extranet) for about 5 years now and work on the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LAMP_%28software_bundle%29">LAMP</a> stack. I program on a 15" PowerBook G4 and my main development application (other than TextEdit!) is Dreamweaver 8.
So I hope to get to know you all and hopefully I'll be able to contribute something here instead of just asking questions all the time!

I'm working with some ABAP programmers to get custom RFC calls to do the things we need in-house, so i don't know much about the library of standard SAP BAPI RFC calls.
I'm programming a custom class based on the <a href="http://saprfc.sourceforge.net/src/saprfc.phps">saprfc connection class</a> in php to retrieve all the information that we want in a easy to manipulate format. for display on our website.
Is there anywhere in the Netweaver client or online documentation that lists all the remote enabled BAPIs and what they do?
Unfortunately, this is my first experience with SAP so I'm still learning, but my PHP programming experience makes it pretty easy to pick up the RFC calls.

    Hi,
    I am new to SAP/PHP forum. There is lot of inactivity here.
    I have basic knowledge of PHP as a web developer. How and where do you write PHP code and what are the list of transactions associated with it.
    Cheers,
    Wenceslaus.

    <i>...lot of inactivity here ...</i>. Hehehehe. Unfortunately that's right.
    hi wenceslaus.
    As far as I know there's no such thing as a standard transaction or even function modul for PHP on the ABAP side.
    The only single thing that exists and supports PHP/ABAP cooperation is a RFC library for PHP, which is an open source library and can be found  <a href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/saprfc/">here</a>.
    It's a matter of tast if you want to use RFC to communicate with an ABAP WAS or the more elegant webservice way. I prefer latter.
    Concerning the 'how and where' ... line after line in my favourite text editor (Textpad) )
    regards,

  • New to SAP B1

    Hi,
      Our company is fairly new to SAP B1 and I get the fun tasks of coding middleware for it
    Anyway... Where do I start?  I'll have to look through the SDK and I assume there are examples to work with it of course.
    I am currently using VisualStudio .NET 2005 working with VB.net, so I assume this is ok. Or so the 'Getting Started' section tells me it is ok.
    What about support for PHP with B1?  I asked over in the SAP/PHP section of the forum but that seems to be more for the mySAP (R/3). 
    Pretty much what the project I need to look into is retreiving Sales Quote information (products and weights etc) and then get an online shipping quote from our courier.
    I hope this is possible.  I believe I can UPDATE/INSERT MSSQL but I just cannot ALTER the B1 Tables Correct?
    I'd hate to screw my companies SAP support because I buggered the tables
    Thank you!
    Tyler

    Hi Tyler,
    VB.Net is fine for working with the SDK. The SDK is made up of 'old fashioned' COM objects but a .NET COM wrapper will be created automatically when you reference the UI or DI objects.
    I'm not too sure on PHP. Supposedly the SDK should work with any development language that has COM support...
    You CANNOT use Update or Insert statements for B1 tables or alter the tables directly through SQL. The SDK offers access to most business objects in SBO so writing should always be done through these objects. You will lose SAP support if you alter either the data or database structure directly (there are some minor exceptions to this, such as copying stationery layouts from one database to another, but it is always best to get clearance from your SAP partner before doing anything like that).
    The SDK has some examples and you can find others on the this site. SAP also offer a development course which should be available in your area (again, speak to your SAP partner about this if you are interested).
    Hope this helps,
    Owen

    - Setup TMS  (STMS)
    - Import profiles (RZ10)
    - Client Copy (SCC*)
    - Create users (SU01)

    1) Do you think that it worth for me to spend money for SAP certification ?
    2) What is the career prospect of an SAP certified ?
    3) What is normally the routine of the SAP consultant ? in term of the job dsecription .. I don have any ideas what is the scope of a SAP consultant .

    Thank you
    Regards

    Hi,
    Well looking at your queries I can suggest you to spend some time looking for the kind of requirements in the markets ( this you can find from different job portals). This answers your query number 2) and 3)
    1) Do you think that it worth for me to spend money for SAP certification ?
    This is an investment and it is really worth it
    2) What is the career prospect of an SAP certified ?
    As mentioned earlier, please check this yourself

    Yes
    5) What is the possibly of getting job for a newly certified SAP w/out experience
    Good depending on your previous work experience
    6) Which is the best module that I should enroll for the certification ?
    This is always dependent on 3 things:
    1) Your academic qualifications
    2) Your professionsal experience
    3) Your interest
    7) What is normally market price for the SAP certified salary .
    Depends on your experience and as you are from IT market it varies a lot depending on your experience and the requirement of the company
    Hope this helps you.
    Do let me know in case of any specific queries.

  • New to SAP...Doubts regarding ALE.

    Hi all,
    I am new to SAP.
    Can any one please explain me the following.!
    What is the difference between EDI and ALE?
    What is Logical system, Port, RFC destination, Customer Distribution Model, Partner Profile, Message type, Message control and if any of the important terminology that I have missed in the ALE concept?
    Please help to explain me clearly in detail as I have no knowledge reg these and tried searching for info in various links, but still found difficult to understand?
    Many thanks in advance....
    Regards
    Nani Ancha

    ALE/EDI
    Purpose
    Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) and Application Link Enabling (ALE) are used for exchanging business data between different systems.
    For both these forms of communication, you require the IDoc Interface. The IDoc interface is made up of the definition of a data structure and the processing logic of this data structure. The data structure is the IDoc. The IDoc is the general exchange format of the communicating systems. IDocs can be sent using different methods (for example, Structure linkRFC or as a file).
    Application Link Enabling (ALE)
    You distribute data using ALE if you want to communicate from one system to one or more other (mostly internal) systems. ALE transfers data in IDoc format and uses the methods of tRFC for data transfer.
    ·       ALE enables the integration of business processes across several SAP or non-SAP systems.
    Electronic Data Interchange (EDI)
    You use EDI if you want to exchange business application documents with an (external) partner system (for example, a customer or vendor). The SAP system sends EDI messages in IDoc format to an EDI subsystem, where they are converted to a universal EDI standard (UN/EDIFACT or ANSI/X12). This enables communication with non-SAP systems.
    ·       By definition, two partners are involved in the process in an EDI application scenario: The sender and the recipient of an EDI message.

    Hi,
    to 1 & 2: SAP is the best in the IT market for companies. It is a good idea to work with it, since the IT branch was not affected by with world crisis in 2009 and 2009; additionally, withing the IT, SAP consultants are the best paid.
    to 3: you should start programming with ABAP considering that you´re technichal. It´ll be a good start for a newbie.
    to 4: difficult to know. Some are not very used; therefore there are not many consultants.
    to 5: like 3

  • Cycle Counting - New on SAP

    We are new on sap.  So most of our materials have never been counted.  I have run mibc(ABC analysis), then I ran micn by material group to generate a cycle count.  One of my 'A' materials is missing.  It's in stock and we've never counted it before.  Shouldn't everything that hasn't been counted come up on my cycle count?  If I extend my cycle count date out, it comes up, but it's not due until 6/1/2009 to be counted. 
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    1. What was the planned count date range that did not show the one A material and the range that did?
    I originally ran the count for 5/6/2009 - the A item was not included
    When I extended my date range to 5/6/2009 to 8/30/2009, the item was included, however it wasn't due to count until 6/1/2009, and it was being placed on a physical inventory count sheet for that future date.
    2. What other checks and values are you using in MICN?
    Selection Criteria:
    plant - 3020
    Storage Location - 0001
    Material Group - KIDD
    materials marked for deletion - checked
    Stock Level:
    materials w/o zero stock -checked
    Data in Phys Inv Doc Header:
    Date 5/6/2009
    Batch Input Session:
    Issue Log - checked
    Name of Session - MB_MI01_CN
    Max. No. of Items - 333
    Sort by:
    Material Group - checked
    Enter grouping criterion in doc header - checked
    What is the stock level of this material?
    52 unrestricted
    I did find also that the consultant that configured our cycle counts made an error.  The A items are set to count 2 times a year.  But would that make a difference?  I thought everything that wasn't counted and was in stock for that material group would show up.

  • New to SAP XI BPM scenario File -- RFC -- File

    Hi All,
    I am new to SAP XI BPM,
    My Scenario is : the input parameter for the RFC is sent through a file and the response from the RFC comes into XI which is then written into a file.
    Here my dought is How many Container I have to create... and tell me what is use of Container...
    Thanks & Regards
    Siva

    Well in short I would like to say is
    A Conatiner is like a table whose structre is having two fields namely ELEMENT and VALUE so it is nearly similar to decalring variables in the general programming , but here in the workflow terms we call them as Container elements. and Conatiner is a place where all the defined variables are stored with Name/Value pair.
    Now coming to the issue , the file which is imported from XI make sure that it has the structure as Name//Type/Value  
    Count the number of lines and create the conatiner dynamically by using the class CL_SWF_CNT_CONTAINER from the ABAP program  it has lots of methods check it .
