Third Party Recruitment Software integration with SAP HR

Dear Experts ,
Iam given a scenario where in the client wants the Erecruitment software Taleo to be integrated with SAP HCM.The HR recruiters/Managers are currently hiring them into the taleo software and from there the data need to be pushed to the SAP employees's infotypes.
In Addition to this the benefits infotype need to be maintained automatically in the system.Is there any way to automatically default the benefit infotype also
Kindly suggest a solution for this.
Regards
Gopa

You will need interface(s) between Taleo and SAP....If Taleo is your recruiting system...then they may want...
Outbound from SAP: Interface that sends them vacant position data from SAP (you need this so that when Taleo sends you finally an employee data after hiring they can send you the position data with it).
Outbound from SAP: You may also need to send them terminations from SAP (optional - may be needed depending on your company process for handling rehires)
Inbound to SAP: This is the main file from Taleo after offer is accepted and employee is hired in Taleo. At this time Taleo will send you a file for which you can write an interface to hire these employees into SAP. You can do a BDC session with PA40 - you may have to determine if its a hire or rehire here. If you are processing payroll then its important to make sure you have all the payroll related info types (if they are not coming from Taleo then you should at least have them defaulted to what your client agrees).
The second part to your question
Creating benefits depends on how you are getting or determining benefits data.
1. Benefits configuration has something called automatic/default plans...
>>> "Automatic" plans are something employee is enrolled into and has no option to change them.
>>> "Default" plans are something employee is enrolled into on new hire and typically has 30 days to make changes...this is standard configuration for each plan and should be completed.
If it is controlled via benefits config then you just need to go through hire action...and typically as part of that hire action - IT0378/IT0171 will prompt you to go to benefits enrollment screen and enroll employee...into these automatic/default plans...plans will be pre-selected based on configuration. So all you do here is hit save and continue with rest of hire action. All this is recordable via BDC session.
2. If it is NOT controlled via configuration...and you are getting benefit plan details in the file then you just create them in the corresponding info types...IT0167/0168 etc. For processing sanity I would separate hire and benefits creation as two step process if all the data is coming via files...
Happy interfacing...

Third party tool interface integration with SAP

Hi guys - here's an interesting one:
I want to integrate a third party tool with SAP. The interfaces would be required to communicate both ways - sending data out and receiving data and populating relevant tables / transactions. I, so far see a number of methods available to me that would be suitable and feasible:
<b> - File based exchange of data
- iDocs (custom or standard)
- BAPIs (custom or standard)</b>
- XI (but this method would not be feasible and would thus not consider it)
In all the cases above (apart from XI), I guess I would require a program that would call the BAPIs or distribute iDoc data or extract and populate file based data. I have so far compiled a list of various advantages and disadvantages and just wanted to probe your expert minds.
<b>Please list the advantages and disadvantages of each method, providing a reasonable discussion as to why you think this is the case. If you think any other method would be suitable, please list this too.</b>
The person with the most accurate and detailed answer will receive all the points.
Thanks
Mantas

Hi Mantas,
The Pros and Cons in this case depends on the third party tool which you want to intergrate with SAP.
File Based Exchange of data: How conveniently can you push the data from the third party tool into a file.
IDocs: The third party tool should understand the syntax and symantics of the IDoc.
BAPIs: How do you plan to call the BAPI from the third party tool.
From just the SAP point of view.
Here are the advantages and disadvantages:
1. File Based Exchange of data:This method is good if you can easily pass a file which can be uploaded into sap and the data can be stored in the sap tables.
2.IDocs:
Advantages:
If you have an existing IDoc that can do the data transfer then this would be the simplest method as only the settings are needed.No program is required to call this IDoc the settings automatically take care of this.
Disadvantages:
If a custom IDoc needs to be developed then creation of a BAPI would be a better option.
3.BAPIs:
Advantages:
It is simpler to develop a BAPI than a custom IDoc which involves creation of segments, function modules etc.
Disadvantages:
There should be an active online connection.
Some programming will be needed to call the BAPI.

Third Party Ticketing Tool integration with solman service desk scenario

Hi,
I need any guidance on integration Of third Party ticketing tools like OVSD with the SAP Solution Manager Service Desk Scenario.
Regards,
Kaustubh.

Hi Maheshwar,
What I am trying to do is, try to maintain the data like,,
Caller ID-- sender
Assignment of workgroup--
Search Code--
Priority--
and description--
now some of these are constants that we need not determine every time.
but my question is, can we maintain these as a set of parameters in the method definitionunder parameters tabjust similar to MAIL_HEADER...which is displayed in the mail alert.
we already have a scenario maintained in the HPSD where it reads the mail picks up specific content based on key words, and creates a ticket.
and If we can maintain these by modifying the method, then where can we maintain the multiple data/options for this
And also please send me what were the steps u have done.
U used a Z method or customized the Function module??
Bcz in my case I think I will have to do both..

Kaustubh.

Third Party WCM tools integrated into SAP EP7

Hi All,
I am wondering if anybody has experiences with integrating a third party WCM tool with EP7 for intranet-style content in the portal, and whether an assessment versus Web Page Composer has been made? I have looked at Web Page Composer but am interested in seeing what best-of-breed third party offerings are certified for integration to EP7 and how these compare.
Points will be awarded for useful responses.
Regards
John

Hi John,
I've seen btexx easyWCM in some projects and although I do not like it, many users are quite content with the features.
Afaik it is certified for SAP EP 7.0, have a look at it.

Reg third party application can integrate with SAP Business one

Dear All
I have a typical requirement , i want to know how can it be done in SAP Business One.Our client have other application based product , he is doing all the transactions in that.He has another
DB. that is SAP Business One. Now we want to syncronize the data between two databases. i.e if he enters a Sales order in other based that should be inserted to B1 and vice versa. Not only marketting documents but masters also and financial documents also. I hope it is possible using B1 integration Technology. Can you pls let me know how it can be done. any solution to be suggested is accepted.
please do the needful.
Regards
M Auditya

Hi,
Actually i guess i could be possible but I'm not 100% sure on the level of integration. I recommend u to download the B1iSN and have a look at the doc.. Operation_Guide_Subsidiary_Integration_EN.pdf, And a lot depends on the database the 3rd party software is using.
Hope it helps,

Integration between SAP and third party tax software

can some body explain me or provide me docs regarding integration between sap and third party tax software like vertex.
Thanks

Hi
First configure the same via the following menu path:
1.) IMG>Financial accounting>Financial accounting global settings>Taxes on sales/purchases>Basic settings>External tax calculation>Define physical destination
2.) Then test connection (option is available there).
3.) If the connection is successful, also verify that the external tax package installed supports the R/3 4.6 version of the API. You do that by going to:
System Information>Function List
Check if the following functions are listed:
RFC_CALCULATE_TAXES_DOC
RFC_UPDATE_TAXES_DOC
RFC_FORCE_TAXES_DOC
RFC_DETERMINE_JURISDICTION
4.) Then test the tax data retrieval:
From SE37, select the relevant function modules like RFC_DETERMINE_JURISDICTION.
The above 4 steps are necessary to satisfy that the RFC connection is established
Hope useful

Integration with SAP BI - SAP BO XI integration kit or PerformancePoint?

Hi all,
We would like to get some thoughts on SharePoint integration with SAP BI.Could you please help us in solving the following questions:
1. Which one is better? SharePoint integration through PerformancePoint Server 2007 or SAP Business Objects(SAP BO XI integration kit)?
2. What are the starting point(system requirements) to develop a prototype on both the methods?
I was able to find some info on both PPS and SAP Business Objects from the sdn forums and also from sdn documents(those were really helpful,thanks!) but it didnt provide a detailed insight into which one to opt for or how you can goahead.If someone has got more info on this please let us know.
Thanks
Kukku

Hi Sergey,
That was really a very helpful peace of information on what I was actually looking for!
So as per my understanding PerformancePoint Server cannot report directly from SAP ERP(you mean SAP BI specifically right? ).So is there any third party software that we need to use for PPS integration with SharePoint?Are we still trying to connect to SAP BO or directly to SAP BI.
Also can you provide some info on what kinds of reports can we publish using PPS.
Please correct me if wrong.
We are trying to build a prototype on both type of integration.Our front end is SharePoint and our ultimate goal is to provide the SAP BI reports through SharePoint Portal.
Thanks

How can SMART METER Technology be integrated with SAP ISU system?

At present the SMART METER technology is integrated with SAP ISU through a third party vendor. The idocs are sent to a third party and the readings are downloaded and sent back in idoc segments.
How can the integration be done without the third party intervention.

HI
SAP XI needs to be used for 3rd party intervention to send and recive idocs..
or there are some thrid party softwareslike MDUS ,meter data utilisation system.which wil be again a interface between sap and ami system
so basically its like sap syst--sap xi3rd patry 4 ami comapnyami system

Is the system being used internally only or do you plan to expose it to the Internet? Based on my past experience I would focus on architecture design, security including vulnerability scanning, performance, interoperability (especially different browsers and browser versions) and usability (neither the BSP nor the WDA UI is that user friendly). Of course if the system is used only internally, the involved effort is smaller.

Brief discussion on SAP XI and its' Integration with SAP MDM.

Hi,
I have never worked on SAP XI.
I am discussing it on brief, please give your valuable replies.
SAP XI consists of System Landascape Directory(SLD).
SLD Consists of Business System and Techinical System.
Technical System contains all information about the software
component. The Business System consists of Inbound and Outbound Business
System which are used as logical names for data transfer.
There is communication Channel for Receiver and Sender Business System and n agreement
is signed between Sender and Receiver.
Outbound Interface defined for Business System Outbound and Techical System associated
with the Business System,
Inbound Interface defined for Business System Inbound and Techical System associated
with the Business System.
In SAP NetWeaver XI Integration Directory, we have defined the Integration Scenarios,
Actions, Interface Objects, Mapping Objects, Adapters Objects.
Mapping Object defines the Structure and Value Mapping.
Adapter Objects defines the Adapter program which implements RFC Adapter, FTP Adapter logic.
FTP Adapter is used for XI-MDM Communication.
RFC Adapter is used for XI-ECC Communication.
Integration Repository: Both Outbound and Inbound Interfaces are Mapped with Value mapping and
Structure Mapping inside Integration Repository.
The File Adapter takes the File from the Outbound port of MDM System
and sends it as IDOC to Receiver Business System.
Value Mapping must be done between Sender and Receiver interfaces.
Value Mapping is done by XSLT or Java based program.
SAP NetWeaver XI Integration Server at runtime:
Message Split, Interface Determination, Receiver Identifaction, Mapping, Techincal Routing
and Call Adapter Proccess are done.
In SAP XI 3.0 and MDM 5.5:
Step 1: Create busines system as service.
Step 2: Create communication channel for each business service. If the system can communicate
through different channels, then create all possible channel types if necessary.
Step 3: Create receiver agreement between the systems.
Step 4: Interface determination:
- Here you see for the first time the software component mentioned;
there are some special requirements regarding this software component in relation to the customizing ID mapping.
- To modify this software component, the customer needs to copy the SAP standard delivered software component
into its own namespace. The customer is able to modify to create archives
for the customized ID mapping.
Receiver determination.
Configure an FTP Server on the MDS.
Create a send folder for outbound messages using outbound port(s) for
remote systems(s).
Create receive folder inbound messages using inbound port(s) for remote systems.
This ia all about concept of SAP XI Infractsture and its' Integration with SAP MDM 5.5.
Regards
Kaushik Banerjee

Hi Kaushik,
You must be aware of File types that MDM Import Manager can Import i.e. we have XML, Excel etc. Now there are two transactions to extract data from R3
1. MDMGX -
         - For lookup table extraction
         - Output in XML format which MDM can import without using XI.
          - FTP can be configured to put the file in the desired folder which will be then picked by Import Server.
2. MDM_CLNT_EXTR -
          - For Main table records.
          - Output is in Idoc format which MDM doesn't understand hence we need XI in between which converts Idoc file received from R3 into XML which can then be imported using Import Manager or Import Server. For this we need to implement XI Scenario that consists of Source System, Receiver System, Type of Data etc.
Just a basic understanding...

Third party backup software, how is the log sequence working?

Me and a colleague had a discussion about how third party software and full backups locally on the SQL works together.
If we use TSM that do full backups and then logbackups every hour in between for example.
If I between the two full backups from TSM accidently do a "non copy-only" full backup do I then also break the whole log sequence backup from then and untill the next TSM backup is?
Or can I use the full backup from my mistake and then take the log backups from TSM that occured after that fail and restore the database?
I guess this depends on the third party backup software, but in my mind it should work but according to him it doesn't.
Try to "paint" how I mean:
I = full TSM backup
- = log TSM
F = my fail backup full but not copy only.
I---F-------I
^ is where I would want to restore with both my full one and the logs from TSM. Hope you understand what I mean.

yes, you should be able to use the full backup taken in middle and use the rest of the log backups taken afterwards to restore the database.while I do not use TSM, we use QUEST(DELL) LITESPEED, that takes full backup once a day and log backups
every 15mins.
if someone accidentally takes full backup in the middle of day with out 'copy only',
log sequence will break and successive log backups depend on this full back up.
while this should be prevented from happening in first place, you can still restore from native full backup and then apply log backups taken from third party taken after the native Full backup.
if this happens, I would restore the FULLBACKP with NORECOVERY using NATIVE SQL and then use lite speed syntax to restore the log backups.Remember, native sql cannot read third party formatted backups(atleast litespeed), thats why I restore the full backup
using native sql, since it was taken with native sql backup and log backups using litespeed syntax.
Hope it Helps!!
Thanks, well it was just a theory discussion we had about the issue. But none of us could find info on the internet easy to prove our point :) Thanks.
