Transit from AS400 to SAP

I'm sure I'm asking in the wrong area, but I have nothing to go on yet. I have just learned that a system I developed (PC-based, C++) that interfaces with an AS400, will soon be talking to SAP. I'm not exactly sure what that means and I have no idea what it entails. If anyone can point me in the right direction, to a good resource, that would be great. If there is a more appropriate forum, that is fine too. Anything at this point is great.
Thanks!

Right now, I'm downloading fairly simple tables from an AS400 / DB2 system. As I think I mentioned, I'm doing it through ODBC/SQL calls, and the connection is via ClientAccess.
As far as the SAP goes, unfortunately at this point all I know is it's happening. I don't know anything about the new system. But I will find out as soon as I can.
Thanks

Migrate all Open Sales Orders From Legacy System (SAP) To SAP System using

Hi Experts,
             I've to Migrate all Open Sales Orders From Legacy System (SAP) To SAP System using Business Objects with a new SALES ORDER DOCUMENT NUMBER referencing the older one.
           I'll get all the required data with field in an excel file.
             Does any standard transaction exist for it ? Or how to go ahead with it ?
Thanks and regards,
Jyoti Shankar

Hi
If you are checking for CREATE option then Sales Doc Type
For more Info goto SWO1 transaction -> BUS2032 --> DIsplay --> Execute --> There SELECT the method which you want to perform... There you can fine the MANDATORY parameters also....
Or in DISPLAY mode PLACE Cursor on the Required Method and CLick the PARAMETERS button on toolbar...
That will show the MANDATORY parameters...

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.

hi jyothi ,
   there are lot of ways of doing it depending on data upload volume it will be decided .
1) thru abap bdc program which directly uses XL sheet data and creates SO using bapi/FMs.
2) using scat.functional consultant should be good enough to use this.
3)lsmw-laborious procedure but achievable.

Creating a Crystal Report from a non-SAP data base

I have the following scenario
server1\myDataBase
server1\SAP\sapDataBases
in sapDataBases I have about 30 company databases. I am trying to create a report, that gets informatino from a table/view/SP from server1\myDataBase, when I try to PREVIEW or SAVE such report on SAP Business One, I always get errors as
I understand that this eerror means taht I can't invoke the data from out of SAP; it needs to be inside SAP (at least the SP, incoking some other data bases and stuff..)
Some bodies have told me that it is beacuase I can only create a report from a table/view/sp that resides in the running/currently SAP company database. Is this right?
Also, If this is the case, this means that If I have an SP taht I use for a crystal report, and 30 companies, I have to create such SP in the 30 companies?
This is my software details:
SQL Server 2012
SAP Business One 9 PL 11
SAP BusinessObjects Crystal Reports 2013 Support Pack 2 version 14.1.2.1121
What I want to do is to create a non-SAP data base to create all the SPs/Views for reports, to centralize it, and the just create one reporte and do the 30-imports in each company database, without the need of creating such sps/views in each company-database. Is this possible?
Thanks

Moved to Integration Kit forum.
The people in this forum will know more about the data structure than the CR Design forum which typically doesn't know much about the SAP Data sources Structure.

Invoking SOLMAN WS from a NON-SAP application

Hello All,
Has any one accessed the SAP SolMan web services from a non-sap application ? For my project, I need to talk to solman through its exposed operations as defined in the WSDL file
http://mycompany.com:8003/sap/bc/srt/rfc/sap/ict_service_desk_api?wsdl
When I invoke this WS through eclipse, after taking in the UID & PWD, it is returning appropriate values for:
RequestSystemGuid
RequestGuid
Getpossiblevalues
It fails for all other operations. For e.g. ListUnclosedIncidents returns and error called :
ErrorCode (unsignedByte): 13
Similary for the operation 'ReadCompleteIncident'
What is it that needs to be done to surmount this error ? Any pointers, suggestions ?
Thanks
