No idea where to start for SOAP in relation to B1

Hi there,
I search a long time for usefull SAP documents related to the possibility of the B1 DI Server and web services.
At this moment I'm at the point that I am able to login at the B1iXcellerator which shows me "SAP Business One 2007 integration platform" however none of the documents below gives me some insight to test SOAP messages at the DI server or how I need to configure the DI Server etc
Documents like:
B1WS - B1 Web Services wrapper
Exposing and Hosting Web Services for SAP Business One with B1iSN
Administrator's Guide - SAP Business One
Therefore I was wondering if anyone who has already using the SOAP functionality of SAP could explain a bit the steps needed to be followed before I'm able to work with it. Or has anyone some good documentation?
(We are currently using SAP 8.8 PL 20)
Thanks in advance,
Kind regards,
Marcel

Hi Marcel,
DI Server and B1i are 2 different things.
If you want to learn about DI Server:
1. You can go to the SDK Help Files and Samples showing how to call DI Server, COM interface with Interact/BatchInteract and SOAP messages.
2. You can use B1WS in order to connect to the DI Server through WebServices, instead of calling a COM interface with Interact/BatchInteract and SOAP messages you simply work with B1WS wsdl references and WebServices calls.
B1i doesn't use the DI Server to connect to B1 databases but the DI API.
You have the choice between B1iSN and B1if, if you want to develop scenarios getting called via WebServices it is recommended to use B1if.
What you need to think about is what you want to develop, what are your needs and then you will need to compare both ways of developing: DI Server or B1if.
You have some webinars explaining how to develop with B1if in the Partner Service Delivery calendar (you need an SAP user in order to access the information) at:

I have no idea where to start

okay, hi! i'm trying to write a vending machine program for a class i'm taking. i have a text file with names, image URLs, and prices. I have a product class which is supposed to use filereader to read the fields in the text file. The product class is going to be loaded by the main VendMach class file, where i will have all of the main ui stuff written. The last file is the MoneyInOut class, which handles all of the money methods. i've got the majority of the UI file done, the text file is ready, and the money file is almost done...everything is hanging on whether or not i can write the product file. i have no idea where to start. any help would be greatly appreciated. i'm not looking for somebody else to write my code, but a point in the right direction would be great! here are the UI and text files:

Where to start for becoming a Forms&Reports developer????

Hello
I am new to Oracle and just finished tutorial that comes with db 10g xe.
I want to become a forms&reports&design developer but I don't know where to start as in Oracle website there are so many tools,etc.
Please any of you help me to put me in starting point otherwise it will be time consuming not knowing where to start.
one of the guy made a comment saying:
Oracle Forms and Reports is a bit 'old' now, and Oracle seems to be moving more towards web development with Application Express (APEX) (This comes with Oracle XE as standard). There is web development done in Forms and Reports but it looks like Oracle are moving away from these in favour of APEX.
Do you think it 's worth to pursue with oracle forms,report??
I don't want to learn something that is or soon will be out off market or absolete.
But even with APEX which tool should i start to learn \ use to become forms&reports,design developer??
Which is the best way to pursue in development sense for forms,...??
Please help me to find my starting point for that secific developement.
Please copy\past all the URL to start with.

No idea where to start trouble shooting

weirdest problem I ever had. I recently updated a site done
in flash 8 AS1
and made some changes and publsihed to Flash 8 action
script2. Something
I've never done before
Locally everything works fine. On the net it is hit or miss.
80 % of the
time it works fine, the other 20, none of the flash
functionality works.
This is an FLV player in a loaded SWF
To fix it I refresh the browser and all is well again.
site is pretty simple main movie loading SWFs onto layers.
Change I made was
to add an a FLV player to an already existing swf that loads
onto the main
movie.. I am thinking something in the code switch from 1 to
2 but if it
works fine sometimes, I can't image what it could be. I would
think if it
works once, it should work all the time.
www.awdwest.com/v2working/
any thought on where to trouble shoot would be appreciated.

If you are seeing intermittent performance when using the
same computer, then the problem may be that some part of what you
are loading contains code that is needed at the start, and that
this part is not loaded when the code is called for.

Tank Wars In Java.........Any Ideas Where To Start?

Hey well i have to make a project for my grade 11 computer science class and i wanted to do something hard. i was thinking of a game called tank wars. Here is an example of the game i want to recreate: http://www.addictinggames.com/tankwars.html. I just need to know any ideas any of u might have on the overall construction of the game, how to update the screen wether or not to use the update method, and paint it on to the applet, or any other suggestions, i also need to know how you guys would go around creating the ground that breaks off once a bomb falls there, an array of every pixel maybe?
thanks for anyone who can help or if anyone could lead me to a source code if it can be found

crossed http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=736084&messageID=4229228#4229228
Give the OP some slack; he was advised to repost in this forum by Ceci:
You'll have to create one or several mathematical functions that you
can use to update the surface coordinates. For advise on how to do that
best, you should go and ask at the Algorithms forum.

Where to start for learning website design?

Is it better to start with DreamWeaver or Muse for website design that will include a store and shopping cart?
Thanks,

Muse is consumer level software aimed at hobbyists and non-coders who want quick & easy static sites without much functionality. AFAIK, you cannot make a shopping cart with Muse.
Dreamweaver is pro-level software. It is the industry standard for developing everything from mobile apps & static sites all the way up to dynamic shopping carts. There's not much you can't do with DW, providing you have the requisite coding skills.

You might want to try resetting its power management unit; see the following tech notes:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1895
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
The reason I'm suggesting this is that some startup settings are stored and preserved by a tiny battery that lasts about 5 years, inside the computer. When that battery dies, the computer may forget things like what time it is and which disk to start up from. If your Mac is around 5 years old or more, that little battery might be on its way out.
If you can't revive the Mac, don't panic. You can remove its internal hard drive and put it inside a USB/FireWire enclosure so that it can be hooked up to another Mac, and then you can use or copy all of the files and music off of it (assuming the startup problem has nothing to do with the hard drive).

Selling online audio - Developer / Help wanted where to start

I need to develop a site to sell music tracks as MP3's which
a user can search for, select, add to cart, pay for and have the
track automatically emailed.
Any ideas where to start / who to approach for something like
this? Are any ecommerce templates available to do such a thing or
is this very specialist?
This is way beyond my skills and Im happy to pay for the
functionality and develop the front end.
Thanks

That's a (roughly) reasonable, if not low, price for that
project, just FYI
to the original poster.

Creating custom UI panels : where to start ?

Hi,
i've had a hard time searching for clear information on how to create custom panels in InDesign.
Maybe the wrong keywords, i dont know, but here i am
I would like to create a panel displaying all the "text variables" and their actual values and be able to edit them right there.
I have no idea where to start, any primers ? Cues ? Ressources ?
Many thanks for the help !
Ugo

Well i was actually asking myself the very question : do i really need a panel ?
So far i found a script thhat pretty much does what i need :
run the script opens a window
When all the fields are populated, hit continue and the custom text variables are updated with the freshly entered information
Now i need to tweak this code to suit my variables and find a way to "get" the current values instead of the defaults ones populating the form.
So i guess i can always execute the script to update, correct and update the variable and anytime, saving me the trouble of going about creating a plugin (this scared me more that anything )
I'll make sure it runs and see whats up. Any chance i can ask you later for support if i hit a rock?
Again thanks for the kind help, i now have ressources and some vocabulary to find stuff!
Ugo

Guide me where to start

Hi It's Prasanna here,
I am working in Core Java (Swings), I would like to start learning the J2EE, but i don't have idea where to start and what i should know first, can any one tell me the flow to learn.....
Advance thanks for ur kind advice.
Prasanna

Sure. You have step 1 completed, if you can work with Swing than your basic Java knowledge is well beyond acceptible. This is assuming you don't let an IDE do all the work for you.
The next step is to learn servlets, JSP/JSTL and JDBC. From there move to the more advanced topics in J2EE such as enterprise javabeans.

"Channel started but inactive" in RWB Monitor for SOAP sender channel

Dear XI specialists,
I have configured a communication scenario involving SOAP Adapter (sender) usage, but I'm facing the issue when testing the scenario. The problem is that none of messages are coming into the SOAP Adapter (checked via TCode SXI_MONITOR in XI) when using 3rd party SOAP-clients (XML Spy, soapUI) based on WSDL-file generated and exported from XI.
I checked the sender communication channel for SOAP Adapter - it is activated in Integration Builder's Directory. SOAP Adapter itself is also started.
I checked Runtime Workbench monitors and in the Communication Channels Monitor of the Components Monitor received the warning saying "Channel started but inactive" for my configured channel as well as for other channels working on SOAP Adapter.
Activities which were performed (in the order in which they were performed and results tested):
1. the configuration channel restart;
2. the communication channel re-activation and further re-start;
3. SOAP Adapter restart;
4. XI system's Java instance restart.
All mentioned activities didn't give any positive effect in part of this issue resolution.
On the other hand, if I use test message functionality of the Runtime Workbench (Component Monitor), then messages are seen in SXI_MONITOR and expected response messages are also returned to XI from integrated business system.
Would you please advise what can be checked else here and where the root of the problem may be detected?
All your answers and feedback will be greatly appreciated and awarded accordingly.
Many thanks in advance and my regards,
Vadim

Dear all,
Thank you for your input! Unfortunately, the problem still exists after testings and checkings which you suggested.
TO Seshagiri:
I checked message monitor and found only several messages for the required sender/receiver services pair in the used namespace - all of them were successfully processed (these are messages which I sent by means of RWB Component Monitor's test message functionality).
TO Sarvesh:
Yes, sender agreement is configured properly. I configured it when configuring communication scenario in the Configuration Wizard and then manually re-checked its definition. Moreover, when performing Test Configuration in ID, I received positive results.
TO Nallam Guna:
I cleared Data Cache in Integration Builder, but this didn't help.
TO Gujjeti:
I'm on SAP NetWeaver 2004s PI 7.0. Service Pack level for PI is 13.
TO Durga:
Thank you for provided links! I have already had a look at them - but proposed solutions doesn't seem to be working in my situation.
Thank you all once again for your prompt answers! I really appreciate your attempts in helping me!
I would appreciate if you could share any further ideas on this issue.
My best regards,
Vadim

I set up the download manager to ask me where to download to. I just started downloading something. It didn't ask me where to download, and I have no idea where it is downloading. This has never happened before. Pleas help.

I have the download manger set up to always ask me where to download a file. I just started to download a file from rapidshare and, for the first time, it didn't ask me where to download it, it just started downloading it. I have no idea where to find the file I'm downloading. Please help.
== This happened ==
Just once or twice
== I started downloading a file

The file you have downloaded is always in the default folder of '''C:\Users\yourusername\Downloads'''

No idea where to start for SOAP in relation to B1
