Roles of SAP XI Developer

hey guys
working as an XI developer am i supposed to create RFC or IDoc's for any of the scenarios or it is the work of ABAP developer?also when i m doing any scenario in real world(suppose JDBC-RFC) am i expected to instal the JDBC drivers or is it all work of the administrator?
thanx
ahmad

Hi,
It all depends on the type of implementation and size of the implementation in a landscape.
In many cases, we can see, Idoc/RFC development is carried out by ABAP team in a huge implementations. There are cases,XI developer has written ABAP code for RFC/Proxy etc.
Regd. Driver installation, it is generally done by Administrator/BASIS team.
So it all depends on the implementation size/team/cost/skill/deadlines etc.
Just to look into -What is XI administrator's and Developer's actual job?

Moorthy

Hi Bysani,
As ABAP guy in SAP-PLM project you be working mostly on Enhancements, Field exist, user Exists and Reports.
There is nothing worry about SAP-PLM, the work you may get is based on customer requirement & scenarios but you will receive the Detail Funcitonal Specification from the PLM Functional Consultant.
As i mentioned the ABAP work is mostly on Field Exists to make some fields mandatories, User Exists, Functional Modules, Enhancements & Reports.
For details queries you can write in SDN, you will get the replies.
Best of Luck for your new assignment.

Setting the Roles in SAP

Hi,
I am integrating SAP with IDM. I have developed a code to create the user in SAP and at the same time trying to set the roles and timezone to the user. There is no problem in creating the user object. But, Roles and timezones are not set in the user object.
I need your help in setting up the values in SAP...
Thanks

Nikhil,

<Object name='SAP'>
<Attribute name='activityGroups' value='ROLE1'/>
<Attribute name='fromDate' value='07/15/2007'/>
<Attribute name='toDate' value='12/31/9999'/>
</Object>
* 'activityGroups' is the resource mapping variable. I am using this code snippet in my provisioning WF. But, the vaue is not setting in the SAP.

P_ABAP_70:SAP Certified Development Professional - ABAP with SAP NetWeaver

Hi,
Anyone attempted the above certification ? Can you please throw some light on:
1) Difficulty level
2) How to go about preparation
I have around 10 years of experience in SAP including development experience, playing a techno-function role.
I have browsed through a lot of threads in SDN but have not got a concrete answer.
Regards,
Srinivas Bhat.

Large difference in the two levels. You need to look at the proper forum here on SDN, and got to SAP site and read the differences in the knowledge levels expected for Associate and Professional. If you're a WebDynpro and WebServices wizard, know some SOA and fluent in OO should have no problems, but you really need to look at the exam content and weighting in SAP certification documentation.

Disabled standard role com.sap.pct.pdk.JavaDeveloper

Hi - I've logged an OSS but if anyone can help me quicker it ould be most appreciated;
the role com.sap.pct.pdk.JavaDeveloper can be found in the portal
content location
pcd:portal_content/com.sap.pct/platform_add_ons/com.sap.pct.pdk/Roles/com.sap.pct.pdk.JavaDeveloper
when i double click on that role it shows only one Workset called
Examples and within it a workset called OBN Examples
I searched the SDN and found this post:
/community [original link is broken]
forumID=53&threadID=19464&messageID=162992
which sounded exactly right. sure enough the role was assigned to the
administrator.once i removed it, the role is now not working for any of
my logons - test users or Administrator.
in addition we do not have the object com.sap.pdk.JavaDeveloper in our
system.
help
andy

sorry, probably haven't explained it well enough.
it used to have lots of entry points, yes. but none of them were visible in the portal catalogue, except one "Examples"
the linked post describes exactly the same problems. when i followed the recommended steps "remove the role from the Administrator account" in that post, the role stopped working, apart from the "Examples" workset. Apparently we are not using NWDI and apparently this has some relevance, in that we can't create the system alias for the webDynpro as the post also recommends.
to recap - the standard role, since unassigning it from the administrator account, now does not function for any user. only the workset "Examples" is visible in the role. this was the case before. trying to view the other objects in the role is the reason I was working on it., since we have a requirement to add the Portal Logviewer in to the content developer role, without giving them the whole of the PDK/PRT maintenance applications. it now transpires that they were not displaying and were hidden becasue they are not Iviews, but are components accessed directly.
Does it need to be rebuilt? if so , how?
thanks ,
andy

How to access SAP netweaver development Studio and PDK?

Hi All,
I have access to EP server on my machine with super admin role .Is there any way I can acess SAP netweaver Developer Studio and PDK through EP server or I have to install in my local machine?
Thanks in advance,
Jasmine.

You'd want to install the NWDS application locally no matter what (unless everyone has a thin client/citrix connection via dumb terminal). You can however, opt to install a local instance of EP or use a central instance. Here's how I see the two approaches:
1-install the NWDS on developers' machines and deploy to a development instance of EP
PROS:
i-developers can develop locally and only connect to the EP server for deploying/testing
ii-share development (although not very efficiently) and test each others' iViews etc.
iii-demo your work online to business users directly
iv-connect to the corporate SAP R/3 and other ERP systems
CONS:
i-you can only use this while connected to the network
ii-could be slow over a slow/remote network connection
iii-developers may not be able to do everything on the portal server (may not have super admin access)
2-install the NWDS on the developers' PC along with a test EP environment
PROS:
i-develop and deploy locally, without a network connection, anywhere and anytime, fast and efficient
ii-enjoy full access (super admin) to the Portal - to be able to test pretty much everything
CONS:
i-may not be able to connect to the company SAP R/3 and other ERP systems, unless you're connected to the network and have configured the connections
ii-not able to get others to test or demo your development without having to port them to a central EP instance
I think a developer needs every resource they can get, therefore I suggest a combination of the above two scenarios, an instance of EP locally and a central instance of EP for the best of both worlds

Managing Roles in SAP

I'd like to get some feedback from anyone with experience managing a large number of SAP roles (80) in a very large organization (over 40,000 people). I am looking for data points on how many personnel were required to manage the effort? Any special tools required/utilized? Any issues or problems experienced, such as time to respond, etc.. Thanks in advance for any thoughts or comments.

There are literally hundreds of roles delivered with SAP BW, some of which are specifically for BW and some for other areas within NetWeaver techologies (e.g. SAP XI et. al.). There are greater than 500 roles that come delivered specifically for BW and therefore are too numerous to mention in a forum posting.
The main BW developer role, however, is SAP_BW_DEVELOPER. Developers would also need the SAP_BC* roles too for ABAP development if there are any plans to do development beyond using the BW Workbench (RSA1). For instance, if any custom tables or ABAP programs are desired to be created in your BW development environment, using SE11 and SE38 respectively, they're going to have to have other roles. We copied delivered roles and created custom roles for our developers so that our security team didn't have to assign a multitude of roles to new developers, instead it's just one role.

Hi
If you have zip file of the project then unzip it into your project location where all projects are there .then in NWDS go to file->import->multiple existing project into workspace->browse the file where you have saved it and select the comp folder inside the project folder->click finish.Now you are able to see the webdynpro project in the webdynpro explorer.If its not appearing then go to Navigatore and right click on project and click on open project, it will open the project in webDynpro explorer.

Is SAP NetWeaver Developer Studio Version: 7.0.12 Compatable with JDK 1.5

Hi
I want to user Java SDK version 1.5 instead of 1.4.
Is SAP NetWeaver Developer Studio Version: 7.0.12 compatible with this or not.
Please let me know

Hi
If you are using EP 7.0, then NWDS 7.0.YY version need to be used. //YY depends on your patch of EP7 .As you have mentioned your are using NWDS 7.0.12, that means your portal SP level is SP12.
In my prject i am using JDK 1.4 for NWDS 7.0.15 and its works fine.I have asked two of my colleagues , they told that in their project they are using JDK 1.5 for EP 7.0 server and application is working fine for them.
So
Thanks

Regards,
Nishita Salver

Dear Nishita,
I hope you have removed the older version of jdk before installing the new version of jdk. Also after un installation of NWDS, did you delete all the temp files and also the directories created during the original installation of NWDS. Also did you restart your system after the uninstallation of NWDS EHP1 and older jdk before reinstallation of the two softwares?
Regards,
Veera
P.S. The first thing you can try is restarting the PC and try resuming the installation, if it doesnt succeed, please remove all traces of NWDS and JDK, restart pc and then resinstall both of them.

Hi,
The newest and default version of Eclipse is Galileo which is version 3.5.x
According to the Widget development guide, widget developer tool covers Eclipse 3.3.x (Europa) and 3.4.x (Galileo).
The problem is solved by downloading one of those versions from http://wiki.eclipse.org/Older_Versions_Of_Eclipse and installing widget development tools.

Is it because I am using Eclipse 3.3.2 and not 3.3.0? If yes from where I can download Eclipse 3.3.0
Edited by: ankur malhotra on Jul 25, 2008 7:36 AM

Hi Ankur,
This happens sometimes because of the Eclipse that you use. Download the Eclipse JEE Version. When you go to eclipse.org and try to download eclipse you can do a comparision of the versions there, You download the version which supports all the web features.
http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/packages/eclipse-ide-java-ee-developers/ganymeder
Check the above link you will be able to see the package details. Please download this Java IDE for EE developers and try installing the SAP widgets foundation then, If you are facing any problems in installing the plugins thru local archived site please let me know.
Regards,
Sai
