UI Development of Biller Direct applications using NWDI

Hi Experts,
I am an Sap Portal Developer.I am new to Biller Direct Applications in Sap Portal.
We have already deployed Biller Direct 6.0 business packages in sap EP 7.0
Now We need to do UI customization for those applications.
For that reason I am supposed to develop track in NWDI.
Can you please explain me in steps creating the Track, dependencies to be added,SCA files needed.
Could you please explain me in steps from creating tracks to importing the SC into NWDS.
I appreciate your response.
Thanks,
Venkat.

Hi Venkat,
I saw that you found another thread related to BD and NWDI; here are a few more which might be helpful
JDI / NWDI Build Problems (for Biller Direct)
/thread/926465 [original link is broken]
When it comes to NWDI / NWDS, it should be the same; i.e. the steps to create a track, to import SCAs into NWDI, to import development configuration from NWDI (DTR) to NWDS, to develop using NWDS, etc. so you can still use the links I sent for NWDI
Also, you might want to create your runtime systems (RTS) before creating a track because you'll need to connect your track to the RTSs.
Hope it helps.

Runtime Logs for Biller Direct Application

Experts - For Internet Sales Application(ISA), we set up "tracing.isa.runtime" in the Log Configurator to get the runtime log files generated, which would have all the Java Action class flows and the Fucntion Modules called details.
Do anyone know How I can generate the same kind of file for the Biller Direct(BD) Application. What do I have to do to generate the runtime log files for the BD Application.
Let me know if anyone has any idea.
Ravi

Hi Ravi,
Try to follow below SAPNOTE
SAPNOTE-921409-Enable session tracing in mySAP CRM 5.0 java components
SAPNOTE-1017756-E-Commerce 5.0-Creating own Log-Trace Files
SAPNOTE-975115-How to On-Off ECO RUNTIME trace in 7.0 J2EE
You can change ISA with your Biller direct application name and where they have used "com.sap.isa" you shoud use biller direct application package name. (I do not have exact idea about biller direct package name)
If you try to follow above SAP NOTES you will able to create logfile for Biller direct. There is no document which specify only biller direct log creation process. You have to follow above notes with little modification for your biller direct application.
I hope this will help you to create log file for biller direct with little extra work.
Regards.

All the XCM Settings , Backend Settings , Portal Settings have been in place and we were able to run the application without any difficulties but all of a sudden now , when we run the Biller Direct Application , an error appears which says "Error" (Thats it) .
In NWA , i get the below errors but not sure what can be the issue or how can i resolve it. I am sure it relates to Connection Management Pool but not sure what settings does it requires.
Errors in NWA:

2) Recurring Error in the initialization of the application "ConnectionManager.initdefaultpool failed
3) Could not create Connection Manager Scenario-Biller Direct
4) Java Exception "java.lang.NullPointerException has occurred". Check the trace for location "com.sap.fin.webbase.taglib.LogExceptionTag"

Can I use the NI DAQmxbase C functions to develop a Smart Device application using a NI USB or NI ENET 9234 C module with Visual Studio for an iMX31 (ARM 11) embedded computer running Win CE 5.0 or 6.0?

I have an embedded application running on a iMX31 (ARM 11) that does fairly high performance analog input (24 bit, 50K samples/second). I use Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 C/C++ for the develoment environment and have currently built versions of the application for Win CE 5.0 and 6.0 without Labview or NI hardware. I have used the NI 9234 with great success on several Labview applications in the past and I'd like to use the 9234 on this embedded application with VS2005 C/C++. The NI documentation hints that I should be able to do this (maybe I'm overly optimistic) and I'm wondering if anyone else has? I've tried the Evaluation versions of Labview Mobile and Labview Touch panel to build a C application using the NI DAQmx base C function inside Visual Studio without success. I can compile and link the ContAcq IntClk LV example project for an x86 platform using NIDAQmx but not for a ARM platform using NIDAQmxbase.lib. I get the same linker error error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol referred to in Knowledge Base Document ID 4HAEE7QQ even though I've set up (or think I've set up ) VS2005 as the KB article indicates.
If anyone has used the C functions and NIDAQmxbase library inside a VS2005 Smart Device project, I'd greatly appreciate your comments.
Thanks

Hello Gene,
I have been checking into this for you and have found out that what you are trying to do cannot be done. At least not in the current manner you are hoping for. The internal architecture of DAQmx Base requires the cross-compiling capability of the LabVIEW Mobile Module. While a stand-alone compiler can compile DAQmx Base calls for desktop processors, it cannot compile DAQmx Base calls for ARM.
If your application requirements exclude the LabVIEW toolchain, then the remaining option is the USB Driver Development Kit which is avaliable here, but you will have to contact your local field sales representative to discuss support
options as standard phone and e-mail support are not available for the
NI Measurement Hardware DDK.

Customizing Biller Direct application

Hi,
We are all set for customizing biller direct business package, and when about to begin, client came up with some questions.
What would be the impact of Patch updates or future upgrades on customization?
Our idea is to follow the modification guide... according to which, business package is delivered with a folder to include customer developments... as project demands, we need to copy existing biller direct screen and modify it to client's requirement.
The point of doubt is that SAP as delivered with current version of business package, it might deliver the customeExtension folder along with future upgrades or updates. This might result in deletion of custom developments during every upgrade/update. How do we justify to this? Ideally, SAP upgrades should only effect SAP delivered objects and not customer extension... but how do we convey the same to client?
Thanks and regards,

Hi,
Thank you Sridhar.
Is this do we need to do in java programming?
Below is a little more background of the question
From the java action class I have to call a BAPI to get the variant.
I have to set the variant that I got as it is in another Function Module, say FM-1.
I have to pass three additional parameters to the above functional module.
When I ran the function module in ABAP by setting the variant and three parameters , it is returning the pdf.
When I am running the function module from java action class, it is not getting the pdf on screen.
Now my questions are,
1. How to get and set the variant in a action class.
2. How to display the pdf after running FM-1.
Thanks in advance.

Develop a command-line application using LabVIEW

Hi,
Is it possible to generate a command line(CLI) executable using LabVIEW? This CLI exe will be called with certain command line arguments by another application (written in Visual Basic). The LabVIEW Run time engine can be installed separately on the host PC.
Thanks for your help
Siddharth
Solved!
Go to Solution.

There is an example that ships with LabVIEW that shows how to read the command line arguements from an application. THe name of the VI is CommandLine.vi. It is extremely basic though. The power of command line arguements really comes from how you define and parse them. I recommend allowing your command line arguements to be order independent and that they require a label. For comand lines I prefer to use a single letter for the label. Full words are nice but then your command line gets very long. For the applications that we write we allow both the '/' (DOS/Windows style) and the '-' (Unix/Linux style) to designate a command line label.

EP 6.0 and Biller Direct

We will be implementing Biller Direct soon and want to provide it via an Enterprise Portal that uses SSO.
Has anyone done this yet? If so, did you have BD open in a new browser window, or is it part of your portal user interface?
What is the name of the Biller Direct component to call in an iView?
Thanks,
Donna Maupin

Hi Maik,
I am facing an issue with SAP Biller Direct. We made the initial setting through Extended Configuration Management (XCM) wherein we created a new Customer in Application Settings. We made some Application settings and Connection Manager settings. Once we try logging into the Biller direct application using our Host http://HostName:port/bdisu we are prompted with Login Id and password. We tried logging in using the default userid which was provided during Biller Direct Installation but we are getting the error "A general problem has occurred within the logon. The error message is: ".
Please provide us some thoughts on how to rectify this error. Let us know if we need to make some User Management Configs. Also any documentation of how to implement UCES would be very helpful.
Thanks,
Yuvaraj.

If i can do or to billing directly with out using delivery

hi,
sap gurus,
if i can do using standard order to billing directly without using delivery then how i can know that the goods are delivered to that particular
customer.
here is the example of this:
there is only SD and FICO modules no MM. my client is saying he doesn't MM module to configure.
my delivering of goods place is USA.
in india i am creating a standard order and then from USA people will delivery the goods and services and then they will inform us to creating a
billing and then to FICO.
regards,
balaji.t
09990019711

you can configure third party scenario for your requirement. The delivery will be done by vendor/plant at USA and they will submit the invoice to you. This step (receipt of invoice transaction MIRO) will be considered as goods have been delivered.
Thanks

Questions on SAP Biller Direct Java Customization

Hi,
I am working on SAP Biller Direct java customizations. Can anyone help me find answers to these questions.
-- I have created local DC from the Biller direct track in NWDI. I would like to change the User registration page in Biller Direct.
Can any one let me know the JSP page name for that and where can i find it in the components.
--- Also all this development do i have to do it in J2EE perspective and checkin my changes?
Also i would like to know if anyone can send some documents on devlopment part of Biller direct.
Thanks

Hi Aparna,
I have a couple quick questions about BD development and would really appreciate it if you could provide some advice since we are starting our build soon.
In my NWDI track, I have component FSCMBD and several other of the required SAP components. I did not create a new product or component, just followed the procedure in this thread: https://forums.sdn.sap.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1331894. Is that the method you recommend?
I am concerned about doing development directly on the FSCMBD component. How do I prevent my developers from modifying BD source code? Is the idea that they will create independent DCs in NWDS (as you described) and only modify those? I just want to make sure that we are doing development in a way that is supported and will not cause issues when applying SPs or upgrades to FSCMBD.
I also want to confirm that this "create project" activity is not something that I need to do as an Administrator in the NWDI track; this is something my java developers will need to do in NWDS at the beginning of the build.
Thanks Aparna!

Biller Direct and R/3

Hi,
We have installed SAP Biller Direct application on J2EE 620 engine integrated with SAP R/3 4.7 Enterprise (WAS 620). For user management security we will use ABAP stack.
The link of this Biller Direct Application will be provided on company's web portal (not SAP Ent. Portal). Once user click on link , Biller Direct application will open it another browser window.User must create their own user id and password.Other information will also be asked like Last Name ,first name, etc) during user id and password creation. Basically user will create their own user master record. (just think of it as you are creating an email account in Yahoo portal connected to R/3)
My question is :-
1) What configuration I need to do on J2EE and R/3 side so that user record will be created in R/3 when user creates it's own ID and password?
2)If I want to link LDAP with R/3, how I can link the LDAP with R/3 (user mapping ) will it be automatic, once the user creates it user id in web portal? OR do i have manually synch LDAP and R/3
I will appreciate your response
Thanks

This forum handles anything matching pattern B*. Unfortunately the first sentence with J2EE already indicated that we will have to request that you kindly ask in another forum. I can see that you problem is actually more between Java and ABAP stack, so I am not sure which of the other forums can help. I am lost here.

Biller Direct Query

Hi all,
I want a couple of options removing from their Biller Direct application. These are as follows
1. Select the payment method you want to use.
and
2. Chose continue to check and confirm your payment.
I know that we can remove the whole page of options using standard
Biller Direct config options there is no standard function to remove options within a page.
Can anyone please let me know if this can be done and if possible how.
thanx
Deepak

Hi Julius,
For Biller Direct, I think it is defaulted rather than recommended ( I will check this) . The XCM configuration guide also explains how to setup the connections. Even the [sec guide|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/f03e38e4-7a55-2a10-d9a1-f129b31f5d7e] explains this setup. That makes me think this is defaulted.
For now, we are still configuring it, so don't know what implications it will have. Also, didn't get to explore its all options for BD, as its pretty new to all.
Works ok for now..managed to get it working for some testing
Thanks
Abhishek

FSCM Biller Direct Call Center Payment Log

Hi,
We are using Biller Direct and Biller Direct Call Center for our dealers/customer AR processing.
Biller Direct is used by our Dealers to see their account balance and post payment online through Biller Direct web portal.
Biller Direct Call Center is used by our Account Receivable team to see our dealers account balance and to post payment with authorization from our dealers.
The main question is:
How can we see the deatilpayment log/detail on transaction posted through Biller Direct Call Center? Our AR team needs to identify which user from AR team that perform a specific payment. Please advise.
Is this something that can be setup through XCM or R/3 configuration?
We need to get the detail of "User ID" and "Date & Time" that a payment is done through Biller Direct Call Center.
I tried to look from the document changes on AR line item detail of the billing document that got paid. But, the document changes is only showing that user BD_POOL made the payment posting. The user id is setup in XCM for posting any transaction into R/3.
Appreciate your help in advance.
Thanks,
Markus

Mohit,
Let me try to answer your questions:
u2022 What accounting entries are passed from SAP perspective and at what points in time?
A) SAP will post a CREDIT to the Customer AR item and a DEBIT to a Credit Card Receivable account when the payment is posted in FI. The DEBIT to the Credit Card Receivable account is included in the nightly Settlement run to be sent to the Processor for a deposit request.
u2022 How are charges levied by banks / financial institutions handled or can be handled?
A) There are Processor charges for authorizations and other services such as Fraud checking as well as the INTERCHANGE fee that is a percentage of the Settlement amount. This could be anywhere from 1.5% to 4% of the Invoice amount depending on the type of transaction and the agreement with the Processor.
u2022 How any fees / charges imposed by network processors / clearing houses handled on a transactional basis?
A) The processor will assess and collect these fees, typically on a monthly or daily basis and provide reporting to the Merchant regarding the fees charged.
u2022 Is this something which Standard SAP Config can accommodate and if yes where exactly? If not what custom development route is appropriate?
A) Standard SAP does not have the ability to assist with Settlement reconciliation or recognition/assignment of processing fees. This must be accomplished through Manual postings.
u2022 Does addition of third party providers like pay metric for interface plug-in help in segregating and processing of credit card charges any better?
A) Yes, ISVs such as Paymetric which provide integration between SAP and the processors do provide additional SAP and external reporting and functionality to assist with the reconciliation process and in determining the processing fees.
