SAP XI, liscensing, adapters confusion

Hi all -
About to embark on a NW2004s green field implementation. ECC and BI in-scope, XI and EP out of scope for phase I. Require clarification regarding XI, adapters and interfacing into ECC. Organization does not have XI licensed except as provided in NW license for SAP to SAP system integration. If we want to process XML based interface files from non-SAP system into ECC (I.e. without XI due to licensing) how is this best done? Is the SAP Business Connector (BC) used? The SAP NW licence does provide XI Integration Adapters (SOAP, FTP, IDOC, RFC..). Do these run on XI or ECC? If they run on ECC, do they replace SBC in WAS 6.40?
Thanks,
Pat

Hi Lionel,
No there is no adapter which can communicate with RMI protocol(which EJBs works with).
But there is one XI adapter from iWAY
"CORBA ADAPTER". Please go through this link.
https://websmp205.sap-ag.de/~sapidb/011000358700009396312004E#CORBA
RMI-IIOP protocol itself is a part of CORBA.
So the EJB which can work with RMI-IIOP should work with this protocol.
Regards,
Piyush

No SAP Option under Adapters in SAP business connector 4.7 Admin page

Hi Experts,
I have installed SAP BC 4.7 (both server and developer) and started the server (installation done with <sid>adm user). The problem I am facing is in configuration. There is no SAP option under Adapters because of which I am unable to configure ABAP stack here. Please help in resolving this.
Below are some logs:

Hello gaurav,
I have tried re-installing.
I am able to open the web-admin and also all the links except the ones in the adapters section.
I have checked the installation document, adapter guide for BC 4.8 but i couldnt find anything useful.
I was just wondering if it has got anything to do with the OS.
lemme know if you have come across anything like this.
thanks for the help.

Cannot edit SAP or WebService Jobs via Client (5.3)

When I try to edit or view our SAP or Web service jobs in the Client (5.3), it
brings up the job details but there is no SAP or web service tabs shown and the
Job name and other details of the job are blank.
From the same computer, I can successfully edit sap/web service jobs pointing at
our other database alias' (we have 2 QA environments). It is just the one
environment that is having this issue.
Our license is ok and the SAP and WS connections are fine. The SAP and WS jobs
are also running fine.
This is not the issue where the client machine's SAP and WS Adapters are getting
"confused" BECAUSE we CANNOT open sap/ws jobs from ANY machine. I am sure that
this has to do with settings on the server or in the database.
We have been able to open these successfully in the past.
Any ideas from anyone having this same experience would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

How to log in standard sap way in a jsp/servlet project

Hi expert,
To log and trace in sap standard mechanism always confuse me a lot.
Is there any how-to document for j2ee project?
I know for wdj you can add log configuration by select 'create log configuration file' in context menu, but I can not find this for a j2ee project.
I would like to see the log in LogViewer of VA, put all logs together in sap management make sense in our project.
Thank you for your hints.
William

Hi,
f
ile=new FileLog("f:/WebServiceTrace/trace2.%g.log", 800000, 10,                                        new TraceFormatter());
The above code specifies the path for your log file.
Then add this file as a log location and then log the traces. For this you can use the following code like:
Location location=Location.getLocation(className);
          location.addLog(file);
          location.setEffectiveSeverity(Severity.ALL);
          location.entering(methodName);

Migration from webmethods to SAP PI 7.1

Hi All,
I need some information on migrating webmethods to PI 7.1.
We have our interfaces currently working in webmethods which call webservices in SAP.Currently legacy systems call SAP webservices through webmethods which we would like to migrate to PI 7.1.
Could I get some information on how to proceed with this?
1.Could I get the overview
2.Can I import the same structure and mappings into SAP PI?
3.Do I need to recreate the mappings or use the same from webmethods ..if they are XSLT mappings?
4.Can I use the mapping transformation done in webmethods ?
Any thoughts would be of great help
Thanks,
C

1)Only XSLT Mapping program can be reused in PI7.1,most of the times without change, sometimes it required change when you have java functions in XSLT Mapping.
Adjust your XSLT mapping programs compatible to without using XML TOOL kit option in Operation mapping.
2) To understand the web methods flow , you should have some basic /medium level of knowledge , then you can easily understand the mapping logic implemented in Web Methods.
3) When you developing interface use Web methods for only mapping logic, donu2019t try to implement the same design what developed in Web Methods. Think PI prospective. The way web methods execute interface is differ compare to PI (execution process).
4)If any java services existing in current web method interfaces, you canu2019t use the same as java mapping program in PI,in web methods we can perform state full operation from java services in web methods. But in PI it is strictly avoided performing state full operation like retrieving the data/sending data to Data base using Java map.
5) If your client forcing you to use XSLT mappings then only use, else implement the same logic using GUI mapping in PI.
6) Connecting to SAP systems and non SAP system use Adapters in PI,it is very easy . Follow standard way of communication using PI ,donu2019t try to copy from Web METHODS.

SAP XI Functionality

Hi Experts,
I was trying to find out some of the base EAI functionality on SAP XI and got confused with these below items. Hope will get answers in SDN.
1. when a process(integration process with BPM) is in error, can I restart the process from SAP inbox(when the error occurred, it should send an SAP mail/alerts to inbox)?
2. In BPM can we sequence messages from the message data(if I am receiving multiple orders, and I have to post as per the sequence)?
3. What is the facility available to track duplicate message(if I am receiving same message multiple time and I have to process only once and rest I have to discard)?
4. Is it possible to prioritize message in SAP XI? if yes, how?
5. in BPM if I am collecting messages and merging it, can know the details about process like how many messages already merged while the process is running?
6. Can we implement batch lookup process in mapping(if i have an order with multiple item for which i need cross ref data, can execute lookup once and get data for all items)? Can I retry the lookup if it fails first time with a counter or with manual interventions? is it possible to do a lookup 2nd time only for the data which has got failure on first time?
7. How can we handle error(say, if I have to send an alert) while doing lookup?
8. While sending an alert, is there any facility available to customize the message(if I need to add any help tips, or some dynamic data from xml message, or different type of message for SMS and email etc.)? Can we do deadline monitoring for notifications? Can we send message in different languages?
9. Is there any specific way SAP XI handles bulky messages(say 200mb)?
10. Can I search for a message in SAP XI with the data(say order no, sales org etc.) available in the message body?
Please through some light on these.
Thanks,
Sri.

HI,
1. when a process(integration process with BPM) is in error, can I restart the process from SAP inbox(when the error occurred, it should send an SAP mail/alerts to inbox)?
Yes it is possible see the below link
Reconciliation of Messages in BPM - /people/krishna.moorthyp/blog/2006/04/08/reconciliation-of-messages-in-bpm
2. In BPM can we sequence messages from the message data(if I am receiving multiple orders, and I have to post as per the sequence)?
Yes it is possible thourh send step through serialisation or using spcified queue
3. What is the facility available to track duplicate message(if I am receiving same message multiple time and I have to process only once and rest I have to discard)?
Yes it is possible maintain the correlation and loop in that loop check the availability of msgs but this is based on msgs numbers or certain period only.
4. Is it possible to prioritize message in SAP XI? if yes, how?
yes
5. in BPM if I am collecting messages and merging it, can know the details about process like how many messages already merged while the process is running?

Can I retry the lookup if it fails first time with a counter or with manual interventions? is it possible to do a lookup 2nd time only for the data which has got failure on first time?
I hope each time one it is possible,you can call multiple but this is not sure and performance wise also not suggeted.

SAP Netweaver XI VS SAP ABAP VS SAP BW

Hi Guys,
I'm an SAP BASIS administrator. But I am thinking of a career change in my company and if I will be given a chance, I am choosing between the three below.
SAP Netweaver XI
SAP BW
SAP ABAP
I am confuse on which of these three is the best one.
I like BW because many says that this is very in demand.
I like ABAP because I love programming. But I am afraid that this will not be in demand in the future because of the (Netweaver - is it true?)
Lastly, knowing that Netweaver is new in SAP, I am thinking that this will be popular and in demand now and in the future.
Could you guys share your thoughts about this? Which one is the best to choose from the three.
Thank you in advance.
Erwin

Hi,
In my view as you are already experienced in BASIS you shall go with it and cover the all stacks of NetWeaver and be the NetWeaver BASIS consultant. Here you can have exposure of all the stacks XI/EP/MDM etc and as a BASIS person you will have more opportunity as well if you are able to handle it.

Help to choose field in SAP

Hi all,
I have completed my B.E(Computers) this year. I am a fresher .Presently i m working in MIS Dept in an Automobile Company . Here everything is implemented on SAP . I m confused whether Basis or Abap will be better .Will anyone plz suggest me ,in SAP what should i choose to flourish my career.
Thanks in advance.
With Regards,
Ramiz.

Dear Ramiz,
Basis and ABAP are two different fields.
Basis: This field relates to managing the Hardware, Database, Server Sizing, Workload etc. Basis User has all the authorizations and can execute all the T. Codes in any of the SAP Solutions individually or cross-solutions.
This field is meant basically for System Administration and System Security.
ABAP: This field relates to the Coding part of the SAP system. Its a language in which codes are written and it stands for Advanced Business Application Programming. In any of the SAP solutions, there are Standard functionality which usually meet the customers' requirement. But there are scenarios where in standard functionality doesn't serve the purpose. In order to meet the specific non-standard requirements you need to write/create new or modify the existing codes.
For a graduate in Computer Engineering, i think ABAP would be a better choice as it involves regular Innovations and keeps you up to date with the latest technologies.
Where in Basis, the job involved is monotonous and the upgrade in the new technologies involved with is over a long period of time.
Hope you understand the explanation and you are the best judge of which field you want to grow in.
All the Best!!

Dll (sender) to SAP(reciever ) Scenario

Hi,
I have a query regarding the dll to SAP scenario .
which adapter can be used to call the dll (The application is a knd of a solver that is used to optimize the scarce resources ).I need to integrate this application that is a dll (Name is LP_Solve ) which will then update the SAP database .
which adapters can be used on the sender and the receiver side .
Please provide some suggestion .
Thanks in advance

Hi ,
As i have mentioned above also I have this scenario in which SAP sends data to LP_solve (which is a dll file) and the result of LP_solve is then again sent to SAP .
Is there any use of XI in this scenario ?
Can this data from SAP be sent to a utility via BAPI/RFC and this utility will then send the data to LP_solve(since it is a dll file) and the data from LP_solve be again sent to ulility which will send the data to SAP again .
SAP->utility->LP_solve->utility->SAP
I am new to XI .Please help ..
Thanks in advance

SAP ABAP or FICO

Hi,
First of all i'm new to this community.
I just completed my graduation(2010 Engg. passout) and got recruited by an organisation.There i got trained in SAP-ABAP and i'm now clear with the concepts although i have never worked in a ABAP development project.But,I did one mock project.
Its 2 months now.I dint get any chance to work in a project.But,yesterday i got a call, and they gave me an oppurtunity to work in a development project.
Meanwhile,they r also giving me an oppurtunity to shift my carrer towards functional side.I have been given an option to learn SAP-FICO in the organisation itself.They said it wud b like a 4 months training with hands-on experience and domain training.And that too i ll b trained along with MBA graduates.They are assuring me with a project a proj as soon as i complete the training.
Which one should i choose?
Get into implementation project as technical consultant or
should i go to attend tat SAP-FICO training and become a functional consultant?
Since i'm new to this SAP world,its quite confusing.
Your valuable feedback will help me to choose a right carrer.
Thanks & Regards,
Raja

Hi Paul ,
Thanks for your reply .
Starting from my first implementation i was a customer facing guy & i was admired by the way a functional consultant plans, designs and oversight of constructing the solution.I got practised myself to propose a solution or work around/gap fits in the product during my ERP implementations,I like speaking with business people which give us a lot of ideas in a broder scope
Of course a technical consultant is a heart of a project without which any project will not sucess.
But Paul can you please advise me is it worth paying a hugh amount to seimens to get trained?
Thanks,
bhareth

SAP-ABAP or SAP-BI/BW

Hello All...
need your help.
I am currently working on SAS technology as a SAS Developer. I want to learn SAP. But have confusion between SAP-ABAP and SAP-BI/BW.
Which one will be good for me? SAS gives me basic BI background so thought of BI/BW.
& Will I get job after the course completion. I am having 2.5 years experience on SAS.
Please help..
Thanks...:)

Hi,
Module selection is totally depend on your interest.
ABAP - is purely technical and coding work. if you have strong skill on coding then you can choose ABAP module.
BW - its data warehouse. its techno-functional. You don't need any special skills to learn BW. its easy to understand the BW concepts.As per business needs we need to design data flow by using BW architecture(extended start concept).After design of data flows we need to load the data from different sources and do the reporting by using Bex tools(Bex designer/analyzer).
BW have 3 major areas.,
1. Modeling/Designing.
2. ETL - Extraction,transferring and loading
3. Reporting - Bex tools.
Thanks

Replacing BC with SAP XI-URGENT

Hi Experts ,
I have a query related to a case in which we want to replace SAP BC with SAPXI.
The client is going for an upgradation from SAP R/3 4.6 c to ECC 6.0 and they have architecture like 4.6c--- BC-SAP Adapter--- Customized Adapters(Third party).
The customized adapters make synchronous RFC calls to 4.6 c through SAP Adapter and BC.
Basically MQ series flow is there between customized adapter and SAP ADAPTER which further updates R/3 through BC.
Now they want to upgrade from 4.6c to ecc 6.0 and replace BC with SAP XI without making any changes to SAP Adapter and customized adapters
Now my questions are :-
1) If i replace BC with SAP XI will there be any development changes required or it will be only configuration changes that can be done by BASIS?
2)Is it possible that Third Party continues to make RFC calls to XI and XI make RFC calls to R/3.
3) In XI we will be configuring JMS adapter for MQ series or MQ series adapter.
4) What difficulties can be faced during replacement of BC with SAP XI ? What can be the impact of replacement?
I would appreciate an early response as this is very urgent.
Regards
Saras Jain

Only some parts of the SAP BC can be migrated to SAP XI like xslt mappings
refer this : https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/b4f3755a-0401-0010-b6b3-9b65bb7d4503

yes, 3rd party can make calls to XI and XI will make RFC calls to R/3 calls using the RFC adapter in XI.
> 3) In XI we will be configuring JMS adapter for MQ
> series or MQ series adapter.
you will have to configure the JMS adapter in XI.
