SICF or SE80?

Hello All,
I have created various new services for ESS in SICF such as payslips, personal data etc.  These appear to work ok.  I have read on several blogs that state I should set these new services up in SE80 under Internet Service.  Does it matter where I set these services up? e.g. I could set the service up in either SE80 or SICF witht the same effect?
Thanks,
Nick.

Hi,
In SICF you can create internet services like PZ12, PZ13 etc... You need to define the parameters of Internet Services in SICF mode. Refer this link for more information on Creating and Configuring an SICF Service.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/55/33a83e370cc414e10000000a114084/frameset.htm
To create an Internet service with the relevant templates, proceed as follows:
       1.      In transaction SE80, select the package in which you want to create the Internet service.
       2.      In the tree structure of the package, select the ITS Services entry, and choose Create from the context menu.
If you have newly created a package, choose Create More Internet Service.
The screen for creating an Internet service appears.
       3.      Enter a service name and a transaction that is to be linked to the service. Leave the ITS Mixed Mode option unselected and save your entries.
A Theme 99 folder is created for the service at the same time as the service.
       4.      In transaction SE80, switch to your ABAP application and select all of the screens for which you want to create a template, and choose Create Template from the context menu (if necessary, through More Functions).
       5.      Enter the name of the previously created service and a theme (such as 99) and selection Mobile Devices as the generation style.
       6.      Confirm by choosing Save.
You have now generated an ITS template for every selected screen.
       7.      In transaction SE80, switch back to your Internet service.
       8.      Select the service and choose Publish ® Entire Service from the context menu.
       9.      Ensure that you publish to the INTERNAL site.
A message in the status line shows whether the publishing to the INTERNAL site was successful.

  • When differences in parameters in SICF and SE80? (internal ITS)

    Dear Sirs,
    When using the internal ITS it is nessicary to maintain parameters in both SICF and SE80.
    In a case where it is a difference between the two, eg. ~theme 99 (SICF) and ~theme 90 (SE80), which will be the controlling one? (which has presedence over the other?)
    Is it needed to set all the parameteres in SICF, or is it possible to set a bare minimum (~transaction and ~theme) and then set the rest in SE80. (as SICF can be out of the developers reach).
    Best regards,
    Jørgen Ruud

    Thank you Klaus,
    as usual a very good answer. I was under the impression that the parameters had to be maintained both places, which I found a bit strange.
    Thanks for clearing this up to me.

  • Where to execute the services? i.e., SICF or SE80

    Hi friends,
    Can anybody tell me the difference between services created in SICF and the services in SE80.From where i have to execute the services?
    I have created a screen-based service in se80 and published the service.
    In SICF i have created the sub-element for the same service created in se80.I have done all the settings.and activated the service and tested that service here itself.
    But my doubt is once the service is activated in SICF , from where this service should be excuted? ie., either from SICF or from SE80?
    Am confusing at this step.please help me out.

  • PZ00 missing in SICF?

    Hi ESS experts,
    Our 4.7 system has been upgraded to ERP 6.0.  We got the integrated ITS working fine for webgui, IT00 and can see that several HR services work fine (e.g. PZ40, PV0I, PZ43, ...) when we test them from SICF or SE80.
    However, PZ00 does not exist in SICF at all ...even though we have published ALL ITS services.
    Plus, service CATW and some others fail with Communication Failure.
    The termination type was: IMC_CANCEL_TX
    The ABAP call stack was:
    Method: IF_HTTP_EXTENSION~HANDLE_REQUEST of program CL_HTTP_EXT_ITS===============CP
    Method: EXECUTE_REQUEST of program CL_HTTP_SERVER================CP
    Function: HTTP_DISPATCH_REQUEST of program SAPLHTTP_RUNTIME
    Module: %_HTTP_START of program SAPMHTTP
    Can you confirm that PZ00 and CATW work out of the box for you?   Or did you have to something extra to get them to work?
    Cheers ... Bart

    Thanks Christopher
    We've found Note 870126 which pretty much explains why most ESS servcies will not work via the Integrated ITS.
    So, even though CATW is delivered (and activated) in SICF with ERP 6, it still fails when trying to run it.

  • Unable to access E-Recruiting Start Pages Externally

    Hello,
    I’m hoping for some assistance with an E-Recruiting issue (standalone system; Version 3.0).  We are currently only able to access the start pages while inside of our network, and receive a “page cannot be displayed” message while outside of our network.  This is with the exception of the candidate registration page.  We can successfully register, and then pass on to the main E-Recruiting start page for an external candidate.
    The hrrcf_start_int bsp/service is used to call the start page for registered internal candidates, recruiters, and administrators (different view for each).  The hrrcf_start_ext bsp/service is used to call the start page for registered external candidates.  And, the hrrcf_cand_reg bsp/service is used to access the external candidate registration page. 
    The URL’s for the start pages were created using program RCF_GENERATE_URLS.   We are requiring all traffic be routed through our WebDispatcher, and all traffic be HTTPS, so the URL’s start out with https://recruiting....  Our E-Recruiting system is actually “careers”, but again, we want all traffic to go through our WebDispatcher, which is “recruiting”.
    We have created external aliases in transaction SICF for all three URL’s, and using the alias, I can successfully login to all pages within our network.   When I test the external aliases within SICF, I get an internal error (The user is not assigned a candidate or an employee) for the hrrcf_start_int and hrrcf_start_ext services.  When I test the external alias for hrrcf_cand_reg, it is successful.
    When I test the hrrcf_start_int  service within SICF, I get the logon page, but after logging on, I get message “Name of logical port’&&lp_named” is invalid”.  When I test the hrrcf_cand_reg service, it is successful. 
    When I test the hrrcf_start_int and hrrcf_start_ext BSPs in SE80, I receive an Internet Explorer “cannot display page” message.   The same is true for the hrrcf_cand_reg.  However, it is trying to access http://recruiting instead of https://recruiting.  I can see that URL address in the application.do Controller, but have no idea where to change it, because it is greyed out (any help with this would be appreciated as well.)
    We have created internal users using program RCF_CREATE_USER, and when I look at transaction BP, I see that it is creating a business partner for each user.
    We have had SAP tell us that it is not a WebDispatcher issue, and we have also confirmed that it is not a firewall issue.
    It seems interesting to me that we can only get to the one page that does not first require authentication.  If anyone has any information that would be helpful, I would appreciate your time.
    Sorry for such a long message, but I was just trying to be as clear as possible.
    Thank you,
    Leeanna Travis

    Hello Leeanna,
    quite a lot of topics and doing remote analysis for netwok issues is difficult.
    Some ideas:
    - starting hrrcf_start_ext / hrrcf_start_int via SICF or SE80 will never be successful as these applications need parameters. The message you got when testing startpage from SICF is classical for invalid startpage Id
    - if you do not reach pages from outside, check network traffic / access rights in firewalls. Usually the sap server name cannot be resolved through a dns for an outside call as you companies dns is not visible for internet users. You will need a relay.
    - check that full qualified server name is set on the server
    - check eeb infrastructure that it allows the access protocoll. If ICF service says http but firewall only allows https you won't get a responde. Sometime switching protocolls within the request produces problems.
    - WebDispacher is known for eating parameters / url parts. Try to get your hands on the traces of the requests which really reach the server.
    - if possible supply some more information on release & support package level. E.g. there is a support package which has an error that if you activate 'do not show https warning' in an icf service it does not only hide the warning but the whole logon screen :o(
    Hope that helps, if not just reply - perhaps w/ focus on one special point.

  • Migrating Services From External ITS to Internal ITS

    Hi All,
    We are migrating from External ITS 2.0 (SAP R/3 4.6B) to Internal ITS 6.0 (SAP ECC 6). Can anyone tell me on how to migrate services which are there in External ITS to Internal ITS, so that the same External ITS services are visible in SICF or SE80 Transaction.
    Thanks and Regards In Advance,
    Sidhartha Chatterjee

    Hi Sidhartha,
    As Klaus recommend, you should start with help.sap.com.
    I would also suggest doing a search in this forum, for similar threads like your. There are many of them, with good links and tips.
    I think a very good practical start to understanding the internal ITS is to read Durairaj Raja's excellent webblog, "Running your first ITS WebGUI application in SAP Netweaver 04 ABAP Edition", /people/durairaj.athavanraja/blog/2005/08/21/running-your-first-its-webgui-application-in-sap-netweaver-04-abap-edition--nsp

    Hi,
    transporing stuff from one system to another is no matter of the platform the system is installed on. If you defined a transport layer it should be no problem at all if not just have the basis guys move the co- and data file to the trans directory of the new server.
    If you did only configuration (= customizing) this should not include any development objects which have a source system. But if you created own OTR texts, created customer contexts to SAP OTR texts, if you created web dynpro configurations or did any other developments you will have to transport them and change the source system. The easiest way to do this is report RDDTADI7. You just put in the transport task and it changes all src systems to the new one.
    In general I personally do not like using the sandbox as base for the production system. I need no half day to get all configuration from my customizing sheet where I design the configuration to a server. Usually when you start from a sandbox or project members used the dev. system like a sandbox it's hell of cleaning work to get all the crap configuration and data based on it out of the system. In the long run doing the configuration right once in a half day saves a lot of time.

  • Candidate registration issues with e-Recruitment

    Hello,
    We are trying to prototype e-Recrutiment for a simple business process.
    We have ECC 6.0 with EHP4, SP level SAPK-60403INERECRUIT
    We are trying to go with a single server model for the prototype.
    I am getting confusing/incosistent behaviour -
    I access transaction SICF.
    Then I filter the services by hrrcf*.
    I close the bsp folder since I am only interested in the Webdynpro.
    then I click "test service" on any of the following -
    hrrcf_a_candidate_profile_ext
    hrrcf_a_reg_applwizard_ext
    Sometimes, I get a blank page. Some times, I get a message "unfortunately the system is not available at this time".
    Sometimes, I see the login screen with a button "Register Here".
    Sometimes, I directly get a User profile screen on "Personal Data" tab, but none of the dropdowns are available (not even for country) and it doesnt go any further from there.
    I try to click "Register Here" - then I enter all the registration information and click "Register" - nothing happens.
    I am a little confused.
    Please provide any clues you may have to help us move forward.
    Thanks much!

    Hello,
    seems this is still a topic of interest. So I'd like to share some information.
    First of all, if you like to work with SAP E-Recruiting 600 EhP4 upgrade to the newest SP level which is currently SP5. No matter if it is only a test / sandbox system, due to some "software quality" issues please use the newest patch / support stack. If not you will invest the time needed for patching many times when testing and evaluating e-recruiting and still not get to a valid result. With SP4 sap brought several important functions missing in the original web dynpro ui for recruiter which existed in the prior BSP solution (see business function HCM_ERC_CI_3) and SP 5 has some quite importat correctios for the application. You will save you a lot of trouble that way.
    About ICF services and testing them. For running e-recruiitng with web dynpro ui you mainly need ICF services from the web dynpro folder and a folder named erecruiting but there are still bsps used. These BSPs are called hrrcf_wd*. You will find details on this in the IMG under the ui settings for candidate and recruiter. The documentation for the nodes to define e-recruiting services describe which services to activate and which need service users assigned.
    Testing servies from SICF or SE80 is not a good idea for e-recruiting. Most of the services are either called from other services which pass information or need information from URL parameters. For an example you cannot test any wd application of the application wizard as they need the publication which the candidate applies to passed in the url. In many cases the system will give you the "An internal error occured, Please try again later." error as a result. A general hint, if you get this message anywhere in e-recruitng check SLG1 for information on the reason for the error.

  • Unable to call Internet Service from EP IAC iview

    Hi.
    I'm trying to call a r/3 transaction with ITS from portal iview. I wan't to hide menu and toolbar, so I've created an Internet Service in SICF/SE80 with several parameters (webgui_simple_toolbar, ...). The service is activated and published. When I run it, Internet Explorer send me a 403 error.
    I've tried to create an iac iview and links the service to it, but system return same problem.
    ITS is ok, because I can run r/3 transaction from EP whithout any problem.
    Any idea?
    Thanks a lot!

    Hi Edgar.
    Service doesn't run from R/3 system. I've used ITS parameters "TRANSACTION", "WEBGUI", "WEBGUI_SIMPLE_TOOLBAR" and "GENERATEDYNPRO".
    R/3 can't run the service and give a 403 error.
    Service is actived and published, using SICF and SE80 transactions. Finally, I've run SIAC_PUBLISH_ALL_INTERNAL and all is good.
    When service runs on R/3 system, I will build IAC iView on EP.
    Any idea?
    Thanks a lot.

  • Url for BSP

    When we create my own BSP, from the url properties of the page as seen from SE80, is host:port/sap/PUBLIC/bsp/sap/xxxxx ,which i think is incorrect, because the "actual" working url is host:port/sap/BC/bsp/sap/xxxx. When i tried the "test service" from SICF and SE80, it is directed to the /sap/public/bsp/sap/xxxx page.
    I am new in BSP, is this the way it suppose to be ?

    Typically the url looks like this:
    http://[server].[domain]:[port]/sap/bc/bsp/sap/[application name]/
    Not sure why public is popping up the only time I see that is when I work with an application defined in the public area.

    mmm you are a bit confused....let me see if I can help shed some light....
    In SE80, you will customize/develop/test your ITS service. Also, from SE80, you can publish it out (yes, even if you use integrated/internal ITS, you still "publish").
    SICF, however, is the "framework"/enabler for the internal/integrated ITS. SICF simply allows you to admin your services....such as adding properties about them, activate/deactivate/etc. One big reason for using SICF is that you HAVE to define your service parameters (called "settings" there). Theses are much like the same service parameters your set for your top level service file in SE80, however, integrated ITS ignores those service params  (as well as the global service file).Therefore, you have to (re)define them in SICF. Confusing, I know. But it has a plus side in that you can define some services in one place and not in the other so that the service can behave differently if accessed via external ITS vs. integrated ITS.
    As far as testing, you are very right....you can execute/test your service from either location.
    For me, I tend to set up my service in SICF, but do all my work and testing in SE80 (just more used to it). But it is up to you.
    Hope this helps!

  • WDA application in sicf but not in se80

    hi al,

    but when i am entering this in se80, this application is not coming, what would be the reason please tell.
    although the component in this application i.e FITE_VC_GENERAL_DATA is coming in se80, but not the main application FITE_REQUEST

    Well, that is not completely true.
    The drop-down menu does not contain the "Web Dynpro application" entry but you can go to : Other objets... -> Web Objets -> Web Dynpro applicat.
    Then, you can click to Utilities -> Display Objects List

  • Difference between creating service in SE80 and SICF

    Hello All,
    In SE80 we create a service specifying the Tcode,theme and publish the service.In SICF also we create a sub element,giving the tcode.I want to know what we do exactly in SE80 and SICF (in layman's language).
    Thanks,
    Rakesh.

    Hello Rakesh,
    If you are using the Integrated ITS:
    - the service file in SE80 means nothing.  Even when you publish the service parameters are not used.
    - the service parameters must be in the GUI Configuration of SICF
    So you must create the service node in SICF when using the Integrated ITS.
