SAPConsole on RF

Hi all
We have installed SAPConsole and a Telnet server, plus an RF device with Windows Mobile 5.0.
Do we need to install a Telnet client on the device? If so, what is the preffered client? Does SAP have their own? Are there any that can render the screen graphically as per SAPGUI?
Thanks...
JR

No client is required, if you are running the later versions of sapconsole, then websapconsole is included as well. The device can simply browse to the URL and access SAP via a stripped down gui(really stripped down). In this case, you don't need the telnet server either. If you want to stick with the old text based UI, then you will need some sort of emulator on the device. In my past experience, we always used TE2000 as the emulator, this was for a text based device anyway. In a windows environment, you need this emulator to render the text based screens I believe.

SAPConsole with PP-PI for material tracking

Gurus,
I am working on a project involving use of SAPConsole in the PP-PI area for tracking material/batch from work center to work center.What would be your suggestion on it?
Have you developed any transaction for material tracking from work center to work center in the production floor?
Has anyone done this work using SAPConsole? Any inputs are appreciated. we need to develop all custom transactions for use of SAPConsole in production

Dear,
You need to use the EXIT_SAPLCOAV_001 u2192 Include ZXCRCU01

SAPConsole can't initialize unexpected exception

I have an intermittent problem with SAPConsole and IIS. Sometimes I can connect fine and other times I get the error u201CError: Canu2019t initializeu201D (version 7.1 patch level 4) or u201CError: Unexpected exceptionu201D (version 6.4 patch 20).
I have installed the two different versions of SAPConsole on two separate servers, both running Windows Server 2003. I first installed 6.4 and tried it with telnet first as I had not installed IIS on this server. SAPCNSL.EXE and Telnet worked well in testing.
I then installed 7.1 on another server where I already had IIS installed. This instance of IIS already had some internal web sites configured, so I followed the installation instructions and added a virtual directory, etc. I connected to the URL per the instructions and it worked. I thought, u201CWow, this is easy.u201D I connected several times both from a Motorola gun with Windows CE and also from my own PC. However, late that afternoon I started getting u201CError: Canu2019t initializeu201D. I stopped and started the web page, the application pool, IIS services, and finally rebooted the server, none of which fixed the problem. Then, after leaving it alone for about 30 minutes, I tried it once more and it worked (for a while). Also, I could run SAPCNSL.EXE at any time and it would always work. Unfortunately, the SAPTrace file only seems to record activity for SAPCNSL.EXE but not ISAPI_SAPCNSL.DLL.
After fighting that server for a day or two, I decided to install IIS on the original server where I had installed SAPConsole 6.4. I hoped a fresh install of IIS with no previous configuration might help. Again, it worked fine at first but soon started giving the error u201CError: Unexpected exceptionu201D intermittently, just like the other server. However, on this version, the SAPTRACE file records activity for both the EXE and the DLL. When I receive the error the trace file looks like this:
17:31:41: This is a trace file for SAPConsole patch 20.2
17:31:41: Fatal Error: Can`t find module "isapi_sapcnsl.dll" in process modules list
17:31:41: Fatal Error: Can`t load Central module "sapcnsl.dll"
17:31:41: Error code: 126
17:31:41: InitApp success: id = 01B03888_15, connection = 00000000, displayer = 00000000, profile = 01B04B30
17:31:41: Error: unexpected exception
17:34:28: Start request for session
17:34:28: Start request for session
17:34:28: Fatal Error: Can`t find module "isapi_sapcnsl.dll" in process modules list
17:34:28: Fatal Error: Can`t load Central module "sapcnsl.dll"
17:34:28: Error code: 126
17:34:28: InitApp success: id = 01B0C3C0_167511, connection = 00000000, displayer = 00000000, profile = 01BD0048
17:34:28: Error: unexpected exception
I have looked in both versions of the ISAPI_SAPCNSL.DDL files and can see that those different error messages are contained in the respective versions, so the error is coming from the DLLs, not IIS. Also, since the EXE file can always connect, I do not believe the problem is from SAP. I have defined various profiles, both by using the SAPLOGON.INI file and by defining the connection manually, to various SAP systems. Once the server starts failing, it does not matter which profile I specify as the default or use as a parameter in the URL, I still get the error. Also, the two servers do not necessarily fail at the same time. That is, one server may start failing while the other continues to connect successfully. The server that has failed will start working again after a varying period time (30 minutes to several hours).
So, from the trace file from the 6.4 version, what do the errors mean? Specifically, u201CCan`t find module "isapi_sapcnsl.dll" in process modules listu201D, u201CCan`t load Central module "sapcnsl.dll"u201D and u201CError code: 126u201D? I have placed entries in the PATH environment variable on both servers.
How can I get the trace file with 7.1 version to work? I suspect I might see similar messages. I read an OSS note about a correction for the trace file not working with the DLL in an early version of the 6.4 version, but was that correction not carried over to the 71 version?
I have tried various configuration changes to IIS, such as selection the options for memory recycling in the application pool. I will make a change and it will seem to have worked and then later it will fail again.
Does any one have any ideas?

Apparently resolved intermittent problem with SAPConsole. Changed IIS configuration on to have no worker process recycling or shutdown of idle worker processes or pinging of worker processes. This was a problem since the guns go to sleep and are then not connected to the network. There is still a connection timeout which I have set to one hour. Also I unselected the enable session state option of the virtual web page which means there is no session timeout. Later found OSS note (1221578) under IIS (not SAPConsole) that recommended the same things but until I knew it was an IIS issue I would not have searched for IIS.

Web SAPconsole doesn't work from remote host

Hi,
we have a SAPconsole server (Win XP EN, SP2, last windows update). win a full SAPgui 6.40 comp 5 with SP23.
SAPconsole with a telnet server works fine in local and in remote hosts.
Web SAPconsole works fine in local but when I try from a remote host such a PC with IE6 with right url we stay in wait status forever... no error message ora other warning.
Have you have any idea ?

Hello Ganimede Dignan,
although I do not know if XP (which version?) is officially supported it should work, please remember that XP probably has a (crippled: max 10 connections) IIS5 on it and win2003 comes with a IIS6. Since you stated that it works locally it must be something with you IIS, network or firewall security settings.
Please upgrade your web/sapconsole to the latest patch for 640 since there are known concurrency issues for the patches < 25.

Fekke

Problem with program working on WF Terminal through SAPConsole

Dear all,
I have some WF Terminals, Terminal server with SAPConsole and Z-transaction. The problem is that this Z-transaction works fine on my computer through SAP GUI. But when I start it on WF Terminal (Barcode scanner) it works only till the moment when the data changes (BAPI calls). It writes "Processing" on the screen and after some time the session terminates. I tried to use BDC call of transaction MB1B instead of BAPI - the same result. Works fine on my computer but "Processing" and terminate on Barcode scanner.
May be I should do some tunes for the barcode terminal or something else?
Please, help me!

Here is the solution I have eventually found :
1- Application of the OSS note 559276 which enables the customizing of the workflow variant (the transaction OBWD becomes here effective)
2- Assignment of the documents types, workflow variants and release approval groups with the transaction OBWD.
Therefore, the document types that are not defined in the transaction OBWD will not require validation (no workflow will be launched).

R/3 4.6C - SAPConsole - Multiple Language implementaion

We are at SAP R/3 release 4.6C and planning to implement SAPConsole for raw material GR and GI in IM. Challenge is RF devices are in in chinese and korean language. I have designed the business process and screens in english.
Please advise how to implement console to handle business transactions to and from the RF device while sitting on MDMP system(4.6c).
What are big challenge I may have during implementation?
How to configure console to handle english, chinese and korean language?
What are the limitations with 4.6c and sapconsole to handle multiple language?
Is there any SAP note related to such scenario?
Any system admin related parameter whcih need special attention before implementation?
Note: We have no plan to upgrade to ECC6.0.
I will appreciate any input/help regarding such implementation.

Hi Lee,
I have connected multiple BWsystems to the same source R/3 system and as long as there are no compatibility issues, it is possible. Potential issue could be that your BW 3.5 system requires a certain plug-in version/patch level that is not supported by your other BW system as they are on different releases, so you will have to confirm that there is no issue with that respect. Also, this can present a future problem when you are applying patches to your systems.
Another area of concern is Delta extraction of the same data source. If the same datasource is to send data to both systems, it will be a problem as the timestamps are stored in tables that are not specific to the target system. For example, some FI and CO datasources use table BWOM2_TIMEST. Every time a delta is extracted, the delta is determined based on entries in this table. However, this table is only specific to a client and datasource, not target system. Therefore, you will need to evaluate what data you will be sending to what system and using wht datasources and whether there would be any conflicts there.
A possible solution to some of the above mentioned problems would be to have the data sent to one of your BW systems and then re-sent to the other system from there or used via RemoteCubes, for example.
I hope that this helps!

WebSAPConosole and SAPConsole Transactions

I have a question regarding the SAPConsole transactions. I need to develop Good Movement (Non-WM) transactions for SAPConsole using MB_GOODS_MOVEMENT_CREATE. Does anyone know SAP Best Practice for doing this? Is it to copy the R/3 transactions (MB1B, MB1C, MB01, etc.) and modify them for the SAP Console screens or would it be to build the user interface from scratch and call the function based the user input into the newly developed screens. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Sorry, I could not find a better forum for this topic.
Scott

Hi Scott!
Unfortunately you cannot copy MB*(Goods movement txns) or any std R/3 txns and convert it directly to SAP Console Txns OR Web SAP Console Txns.First of all when you convert to SAP Console Txns, SAP Console is Character Based so the copy doesnot workout.For Webconsole the controls are limitied so you cannot convert the SAP GUI Screen to a Console Txn Screen.Also the screen sizes are different and you cannot fit in all the screen elements you see in the SAP GUI.
The best way is first make sure what fields you have to populate when you post the Goods Movement.Make sure for the console txns, you make the UI design accordingly(For SAP Console / Web Console transactions the screen size is 16x20 OR 8x40).Collect the data reqd for the Function Module OR BAPI via the SAP Console Transaction Screens you design and then you call the BAPI or FM to post the data.
I am not sure in which SAP version you are.I would recommend you to use BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE instead of MB_GOODS_MOVEMENT_CREATE.
Let me know if you have any additional questions.Hope this answers for now.
Thx

SapConsole SAP Note to suppress TO creation std message

Hi All,
We are using SAPCONSOLE not the WEB SAPCONSOLE.
We dont want the standard message that appears after TO creation on console screen.
Kindly suggest any SAPNOTE which can be useful for this purpose.
We want that any further RF tcodes created will not need program changes to perform this operation.
Hence the SAPNote.
Kindly help .Thanks in advance.

sorry, can only log in from work
yes, they can still be tracked. The error_message addition ONLY stops the errors from being displayed. program control returns to you, and you can use the values in the sy-msg* fields to determine what happened. assuming you specify error_message = 99, you would check for sy-subrc = 99, and process the message using sy-msgty, sy-msgno, etc...

SapConsole question.

Hi everybody, looking the sapconsole develops, in the system, I noticed that are developed in a function group instead a modul pool or an excutable program. Are there a razon for that?
Regards

I would like to ask if this is your question so that others can answer
Why we need function groups and function modules if we have module or executable programs?
Is this your question?
If it is then function modules are for avoiding recursive coding.
we can use same functional module in any number of programs without coding again and again.All related function modules are stored in one function group.

Web SAPConsole - Enter does not work?

Hi everybody,
hope one can help !
We installed the Web SAPConsole on a Windows Mobile 2005 device. Basicly everything works fine, but when you press <ENTER> in an input field it just goes "beep" and no submit is done.
The application itself works fine if you test it in e.g. the basic Windows XP Internet explorer. If you press ENTER the PAI module is called correctly.
We are using the "webdisplayer.dll" since this is the only one which is compatible with Mobile 2005.
Does anyone know any configuration setting that could fix this?
Thanks in advance for any help!

How did you resolved that?
We have same problem here.
Thanks.

Doubt about diference between SAPconsole and SAPmobile

Hello,
     I have been many doubts about diference between sapconsole and sapmobile, if anyone could help me I appreciate.
1) I have ECC6 instaled, the SAP Mobile is compatible with ECC6 or I need of Netweaver Instaled ?
2) If Possible to Install Sap Mobile in ECC6 , I have to Buy a license of sap mobile ?
3) in any product instaled Windows CE have possible to install sap mobile ?
4) In sap console what is the requirement for to do this configuration?
I Anybody to know about this informations please explain for me ?
Thanks

My apology,
    The Basic Diference beteween SAPConsole and SAPMobile is :
SAPConsole ==>
1 ) Don' t need a new Hardaware for to configurate
2 ) Only need a Machine with the IIS service installed
3 ) The SAPGui CD content the SAPCOnsole.exe for configuration
4 ) The equipment like Pocket and datacolletor has been to configurated in a Network( but if to have a entrance in the SAPGUi indicate a SAProuter in another factory is possible to have acesses.. ) is a mandatory. Cause the SAPCOnsle folow the SAPGUI entrances and need a LAN or a WAN configurated.
Advantage
simple to congurated and chip.
Easy to create to new window cause the SAPConsole only plubish this window in Browser.
Disadvantage
Need a lincense for each Poket or Datacolletor, wherever the equipment you will use.
Doesn't have a Database using through Browser (IE6 or IE7) this way , during the processes lost network you go to lost the information not saved.
SAPMobile
1 ) Need the a good Machine with a instance of SAP configurate
2 ) Have to found the EXE in the MarketPlace
3 ) is not publish, and yes a client with the database configurate in equipment
4 ) The equipment like Pocket and datacolletor has been to configurated in a Network
Advantage
Need only one SAP License, doesn't metter how many equipment in use you have.
As the SAPMobile has a Database in the client , if you lost the network it goes to save in the local database and when the network come back , it will to synchronize. This way you don't need to work online every moment, you get to synchronize after.
Disadvantage
You profit in license is your lost in the Machine cause the price of Machine is expensive.
is configurate only in windows Mobile.
The window only can be create for a Developement and not in the SAP, have been created in windows Mobile.
A tip, the both is good but you can do a simple mathematics.
In the SAPConsole how much money you go to spend is the least of the Machine s Price.
If yes confurate the SAPConsole , if not configurate the SAPMobile

SAPConsole can address to 2 SAP System ?

Hello,
The possibility exists that can address SAPConsole to 2 SAP systems at once?
Or is always directed to a single SAP system?
Thanks,
Enrique.

Hi ,
If you are asking whether you can connect to two SAP systems with a single click on SAP logon pad then no. At any given point of time it will connect to only one SAP system, no matter even if there are two sap instances installed in the same server.
This is defined by the ip address and system number.

SAP AII v/s SAPConsole whtu00B4s the difference?

Hi Guys,
I'm getting started on this RF thing and I want to know what's the best option when someone needs to use a device (like a PDA or a barcode scanner) which one would be connected via RF with SAP by example to do materials inventory, I'm some kind of confused with the utility of both SAP's applications.
Anyone would explain me their functionallities and differences?
Thanks in advance.
Daniel.

Hi Daniel,
You can get the functionalities and diferrneces for the below links and documens.
I suggest you refer these and get some scenarios on the run.

SAPConsole doesn't connect

Hello,
We are implementing SAPConsole 7.1 on Windows Server 2008.
I want to connect via SAPConsole to the two sap systems (two profiles).
The case is that connection to SAP production system is working properly but connection to development system doesn't work.
All SAP systems are in the same ip range as WinServer with SAPConsole.
Also from this host (with SAPConsole installed), SAPLogon connects both systems without any problems.
Is this a network connection problem or I should do some configuraton at SAP system to allow SAPConsole?
On which ports SAPConsole connects SAP system?
Best reagrds,
Michal

Solved.
WindowsServer 2008 has errors in SAPConsole key in system registry.
There was entries in SAPConsole Admin but in registry Key data didn't exist.
for ex. host was blank.
I filled it with data from SAPConsole Admin, and now SAPConsole works fine!
