What is Web Dynpro ABAP ?

Hi experts,
I want to know what is web dynpro Abap ? How it is defferent from ABAP? Where can i get the materials and documentation regarding Web Dynpro ABAP. I have heared lot about web dynpro abap but i dont know any thing about it. Lots of my friends who are in SAP  field suggested me to learn Web dynpro ABAP but with out knowing any thing wht shd i learn. What are all required to learn web dynpro abap. I knnow only Basic abap so can can go for webdynpro abap or not?
<b>useful answers will be rewarded</b>

Hi Sunil
1. Web Dynpro ABAP, is a Framework given by SAP to develop Web Application using ABAP as a programming language.
2. Core ABAP is to develop applications in SAP GUI, Web Dynpro ABAP is for Internet based Applications.
3. Help site Documentation

4. You should know the limitations of a web Applications and you should know how a typical web application works, that's enough to go with Web Dynpro with knowledge of ABAP.

  • Question about meta-data of Web Dynpro ABAP / Web Dynpro Java

    Hello together,
    everywhere I can read, that Web Dynpro meta-data is platform independent.
    I´ve read into a book, that the meta-data of Web Dynpro Java is saved as XML and
    that Web-Dynpro Java Runtime generates runnable classes and sourcecode out of this...
    - What about Web-Dynpro ABAP? Is Meta-code in ABAP is saved in XML too?
    - just for theory: is ist possible to take the meta-data of a Web-Dynpro ABAP component and
      generate a Web-Dynpro Java Component out of this?
    I tried to find it out but i failed... In table WDR_RR_LOAD (is this the right one?) I found only the
    field data. But this is a RAWSTRING and I don´t know how to make I "readable".
    I must know this for my thesis for my studies, not for work.
    Thank you very much !!!!
    Greetings,
    Oliver

    Me again,
    I am not sure if I understood it right...
    The meta-data which describes the visual part of a view is saved as XML and
    would be rendered i.e. in the webbrowser... Right?
    What about the meta-data of the Web Dynpro application?
    Is this meta-code into an other structure or XML too?
    Thank you very much.
    Many Greetings,
    Oliver

  • Web Dynpro Java timesheet to Web Dynpro ABAP timesheet  what changes needs to be done from EP side

    Hi All,
    We are moving Web Dynpro Java timesheet to Web Dynpro ABAP timesheet.
    what changes needs to be done from EP side?
    I have made Web Dynpro ABAP iView calling Web Dynpro ABAP timesheet and linked it with page.
    But It is showing an error 'Web Dynpro Application CATDATARECORD does not exist'.
    Please suggest what other changes needs to be done.

    Hi Anurag,
    I have added new Web Dynpro ABAP iView to the same page in which Web Dynpro JAVA iview was added and made ABAP iview visible.
    And this page is already assigned to role.
    How should I link this ABAP iview so that it get replace by the Web Dynpro JAVA iview.
    And the  application name (CATDATARECORD) is correct and Web Dynpro JAVA is using the same application.
    But now we want new time timesheet for that what changes needs to be done?
    Please suggest.

  • Is there a way to get Web Dynpro ABAP available in a ECC 5 - NW2004 env?

    We will start developing an offline Adobe interactive form with email functionality for ECC 5 on very short terms. We have to decide asap what client/server configuration we will use for this new functionality. We will also develop an online interactive form and an offline form with upload/download functionality for ECC 5. We will have to setup a client/server configuration that supports all 3 scenario's. 
    The main reason we would like to have NW2004S available for ECC 5 is because we would like to develop the forms in Web Dynpro ABAP instead of Java. Guided Procedures is a "nice to have" too, but not really important at this moment.
    At this moment we think we have 3 options:
    1. Investigate if we can make an Adobe solution in WDA for ECC 5 with our current setup
    2. Upgrade ECC 5 - NW 2004 -> NW 2004S to get WDA functionality available
    3. Install ADS for NW 2004 to be able to create Adobe solutions in ECC 5, then we will have to develop in WDJ
    1. We have the following configuration up and running: NW2004S - CRM 5 and ADS installed: both Java and ABAP stack work properly. We are wondering if we could develop an Adobe interactive form in Web Dynpro ABAP in CRM 5 using BAPI's to retrieve the data from ECC 5 and put it on the form for display or update purposes. Also we have questions about the email functionality: do forms have to be send by email via a mailserver from ECC 5 via CRM 5 and back or can this be done directly from and to ECC 5 or is it not possible at all? Also we don't know if we can develop an online interactive form for ECC 5 via CRM 5. The current setup is not a real option for us right now as we see far too many uncertainties. Does somebody can give us some answers on the possibilities we are looking for?
    2. My assumption is that upgrading ECC5 to ECC6 can be compared with upgrading 46C to ECC5. If my assumption is correct, this would mean an upgrade project with a 6 months leadtime within our company. If my assumption is wrong, please let me know. This upgrade will happen some day, but it has not been planned for 2007. So unfortunately, for us this is not an option at the moment because we cannot wait that long. I was hoping an upgrade of NW2004 -> NW2004s was not that time consuming but I guess this can be compared with a SAP upgrade project like 46C -> ECC 5.
    3. Installing Adobe Document Services for NW2004 is not our preferred solution but we think it is the safest/easiest solution at this moment to get started with Adobe interactive forms for ECC 5 on short terms. We will have to develop in Web Dynpro for Java, so be it.
    WDA is not a must but if we can find a client/server setup which gives us the possibility to build in WDA for ECC 5 functionality, that would be great. That's why I dropped the question on SDN. I want to be sure we choose the best option possible at this moment for us.
    kind regards
    Angelique

    Yesterday I got new information through SDN which sounds very interesting:
    There are technical repository integration points between ECC and the underlying SAP NetWeaver release. To get Web Dynpro for ABAP, you could install a stand-alone SAP NetWeaver 2004s system (without ERP) side-by-side.
    Somebody else wrote: we set up a 3-system landscape of NW04s and have configured single sign on and trusted RFC's so that users can hit the webdynpro pages via the portal, and those systems make the necessary queries to the backend systems via RFC.
    Does somebody know if this stand-alone system could be a proper solution for our situation? Does somebody foresee any problems related to Adobe LiveCycleDesigner or ADS?

  • How to configure SSO for web dynpro ABAP (not web dynpro Java)

    Hi Experts,
        I am testing SSO in IDES for web dynpro ABAP (Not for web dynpro Java / not for portal). When I am entering url of web dynpro application in web browser like internet explorer, then it should ask for user id and password first time, after login whenever user would access that url, it must not ask for user ID and password (url would be access web browser in mobile). For this I select to configure single sign-on for web dynpro ABAP. I have done below works:
    1). I have created a web dynpro application having url: http://susws076.sap.swk:<port>/sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/zadb_hello_world2
    2). I run TCode SICF and access service node to "Zadb_hello_world2". Double click on it, hit change. pressed "logon data" tab, select "Alternative logon
         procedure"
       Then deleted all logon procedure other than "SSO Authentication" and saved.
    3). Go to "STRUST" and create certificate, choosed "Environment==> Logon Ticket" fill the required parameters and execute. It is OK (no red traffic
         signal).
    4). Execute TCode "RZ10" to change profile parameter, insert new parameter (indicated by red arrow)
    After all this settings I opened a browser enter above URL and hit enter but there is an error
    There is no login page. It directly showed this error page. No cookies is saving.
    Can anyone tell me what all the settings/configuration other than this I have to do. And is there any wrong setting done by me?
    How to set the for single sign-on?
    Thanks in Advance

  • Web Dynpro ABAP in SAP E-Recruiting

    Hi,
    We just imported SP8 for our SAP E-Recruiting 6.0. SP8 offers Web Dynpro ABAP as candidate UI. One question we have is how WD pages incorporated for recruiters who still use BSP pages. For example, when a recruiter logs into E-Recruiting and finds a specific candidate, he/she can click on "Candidate Profile" to get to that candidate's pages. In BSP technology, recruiter actually uses exactly the same pages that candidate uses for Work Experience, Education, etc.. With candidate UI using WD technology, does recruiter use the same WD pages when displaying candidate profile information? I have been searching all the possible places, such as IMG, SICF, in order find a spot so that I can set the switch on, but so far unsuccessful.
    Any help is greatly appreciated.
    Li

    Hi Li ,
      At best of my understanding in WD ABAP , its possible to make one WebDynpro page serving same purpose ( showing profile deatils  ) visible for manty( Candidate , as well as Recruiter ) ....
    I would like to know what exactly you want from web Dynpro ..then I will be in better position to tell you.
    FYI ...
    1) Web Dynpro ABAP
    As the name suggests Web Dynpro for ABAP uses exactly the same meta model as its cousin Web Dynpro for Java. A Web Dynpro component, a Web Dynpro view, a Web Dynpro model, a Web Dynpro controller have the same semantics both for ABAP and Java. The main difference is the designtime environment, the development infrastructure and the runtime environment.
    The designtime environment is properly embedded in the ABAP Workbench where Web Dynpro artifacts are simply a new category like BSP applications or classical dynpro based applications before. Also no surprises regarding the development infrastructure. The correction and transport system keeps track on all changes that are done, versions them and helps to propagate the Web Dynpro application from development to production like you would do with ordinary BSP or dynpro-based applications.
    Last not least the execution platform is the ABAP server that produces application content ready to be integrated in the NetWeaver Portal seamlessly. Features like portal eventing can be used between applications written in ABAP or applications developed with Java.
    2 ) I can give you links that can help you a lot.
    First of all start doing SAP SDN tutorials .
    Create some compenents with BAPI , Component usage and ALV .

    /people/marilyn.pratt/blog/2005/12/20/web-dynpro-for-abap
    Try to Download demo tutorials from SDN library & Try to search WebDynpro ABAP WebLogs .
    Wait not just that SAP has provided you with ample demo example of WD ABAP already bundled with SAP . Just Try out Components starting with WDR . I can tell you few like WDR_TEST_EVENTS ( It shows how every UI elments to use )
    See packages like SWDP_DEMO , SALV_WD_DEMO
    there are many more .

  • Web Dynpro ABAP Stylesheet - Portal Integration

    We have a Web Dynpro ABAP being displayed through a Portal iView.  The Portal server and the Web Dynpro ABAP server are separate.  Our problem is in getting the Web Dynpro ABAP to use the stylesheet of the Portal.
    We can make this work by forcing an external stylesheet (via application parameters, global Dynpro settings, or passed on the end of the URL), but we have to hard-code the full URI of the Portal stylesheet.  This would be very hard to manage if we hard-code every iView's CSS location (or set every individual Web Dynpro's application parameters), and we want instead for the Portal to supply whatever the user's stylesheet is dynamically. 
    So what we want is: if we change the Portal stylesheet, the Portal would just pass the new stylesheet URI to our ABAP Web Dynpro iViews without manual modification of the iViews.
    Here is an example of what works:
    http://our-abap-server.com/sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/cprojects?sap-ep-themeroot=https://our-portal-server.com/irj/portalapps/com.sap.portal.design.portaldesigndata/themes/portal/ourportalstylesheetname
    Shouldn't the Portal iView automatically pass sap-cssurl or sap-ep-themeroot to Web Dynpro ABAP?  We have "Supply Portal Stylesheet" checked on the iView… it just doesn't pass anything to the Web Dynpro ABAP.  Why wouldn't SAP pass this parameter dynamically to the Web Dynpro ABAPs?  Is this a product error? 
    There seems to be a great deal of confusion about this on the SDN message forums... I think this may be the core issue.
    We are using a 7.0 SP13 Portal with an ECC 6.0 SP12 backend.

    Now that you mention it, I ran into that exact same issue  -- the application parameters didn't work for hard-coding the theme.  The fix ended up being the web server semicolon thing I mentioned earlier (that was why the parameter didn't make it to the backend). 
    The themeroot is automatically sent to the backend from the portal, so you shouldn't really have to manually send it as a parameter anyways.
    I'd suggest talking to your network guys.  Also this could be the result of the SP you are on (we're on 13 for the portal and the backend system -- maybe this feature doesn't work in some earlier SP's?).  There are also some options to force the theme as a WD application parameter on the backend side, which you could check into.  Details on those are here:
    [http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/7b/fb57412df8091de10000000a155106/frameset.htm]
    Also you could look at the requests being made by installing HttpAnalyzer in your browser.  You can inspect "post" parameters going from the portal to the backend system.  One of those posts (the first one to the backend system) should contain the parameter sap-cssurl (same kind of thing as sp-ep-themeroot).  This is where our problem turned up as this parameter was not being posted.
    Lastly, make sure that your frontend portal and backend portal are in the same domain.  For instance:
    frontend.domain.com
    backend.domain.com
    If your backend and frontend are in different domains it messes all kinds of things up, including stylesheets I think.  If you can't get around this, then read about domain relaxing (but I highly recommend getting the domains the same).
    When we started, ours were:
    portal.dx.company.com
    sap.company.com
    This created all kinds of problems.  Putting our systems in the same domain with the same protocol and fixing our little semicolon web server problem fixed basically all of our portal complaints.  Up until that time, we had also had many problems with session management (backend sessions were getting stuck until the HTTP timeout).
    That's all I know.   Good luck.

  • BADI for changing Appraisal document application name for Web dynpro ABAP

    Hi,
    For Appraisal document customizing through PHAP_CATALOG_PA, We have BADI HRHAP00_BSP_TMPL  to change the BSP application name which can be used in Web layout for output display. Using this we can change application name from HAP_DOCUMENT to custom BSP application name
    Similarly, what is the BADI for changing Web dynpro ABAP applictaion name? Currently its triggering HAP_MAIN_DOCUMENT.
    how do we change application name to some custom web dynpro application name
    Regards,
    Kothand

    Hi Karim,
    I don't know, if there is any chance to get the Webdynpro application name. At least in the ABAP System fields is no information about the webdynpro application name.
    One remark: I have allways problems with BAPIS / BADIS that behave different depending on the caller. Could it be a good idea to pass some information through the interface / parameters?
    Best regards

  • How to use HR Macros in Web Dynpro ABAP

    Hai All,
         Am new to Web dynpro Abap working in HR req.
           Can u pls help me how to import HR Macros in webdy ABAP.
            It will be very much helpful to me. Pls provide any link or doc if available.
    Thanks in Advance,
    Nalla.B

    Hi Nalla,
    if you can't find any Function Modules or BAPIs as Kris suggested, you would basically do this (conceptionally):
    1. What is your business logic supposed to do (output)  and what information does it need (input) for processing.
    2. Build a class in se24 and implement static public methods with the business logic you defined in (1.).
    3. Call the static methods in your WD4A-Framework.
    If you are unfamiliar with the class builder, make a local class first in se80, in a test program or alike.
    Does this help you a bit?
    regards, Lukas

  • Problems creating new Web Dynpro ABAP application

    All,
    I am following this tutorial to create my first Web Dynpro ABAP application
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70ehp1/helpdata/en/fc/501b42b5815133e10000000a155106/frameset.htm
    In this tutorial I was asked to create a component as Local object.
    But after giving the name of the component, I get an alert saying
    "Object can only be created in SAP Package"
    When I confirm this, I was shown a "Create Object Directory entry" dialog box which asks for attributes like Package.
    And this box has Local Object button, when clicked I get the message "Test Objects cannot be created in foreign namespaces".
    I found some other article through Google
    http://www.octavia.de/fileadmin/octavia_files/content_bilder/Hauptnavigation/SAP_NetWeaver/WebDynpro/Web_Dynpro_Part_I.pdf
    According to this, I tried to give $TMP as Package. But still have the same error
    "Test Objects cannot be created in foreign namespaces"
    Where am I and what should I do to create a new project?
    Thanks.

    Thanks Abinav.
    My problem is with naming convention only. Component name starting with Z solved my problem.

  • Web dynpro Abap generated URLs - Namespace vs Alias

    Hi,
    We have developped web dynpro abap applications on two systems that both have to be exposed to our external users in production. We would like to provide a unique host for the two systems by using an appliance in front dispatching the request to the correct system based on differences in URL.
    As all generated URLS are in the following format:
    /sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/z_test
    /sap/public/bc/ur/nw7/js/domainrelax.js
    /sap/public/bc/ur/nw7/js/autorelax.js
    We would like to be able to modify the first tag (/sap) for something else either by renaming it or by adding some other layer in front of it in order to get:
    /nwa/sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/z_test
    /nwa/sap/public/bc/ur/nw7/js/domainrelax.js
    /nwa/sap/public/bc/ur/nw7/js/autorelax.js
    We thought we could use an external alias on one of our systems in order to change the generated url of that system but it does not work as we expected. When we call our web dynpro application using the external alias, it correctly renames the application bath but all other urls stay the same:
    /nwa/sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/z_test
    /sap/public/bc/ur/nw7/js/domainrelax.js
    /sap/public/bc/ur/nw7/js/autorelax.js
    What could we do in order to have all URLs generated by an ABAP system either renamed or prefixed by something else?
    Thank you very much for your help!

  • Created in Web dynpro Java or Web dynpro ABAP

    hi all,
    I have a web application running. Its UI  is created either in web dynpro java or web dynpro ABAP. Is there any way by which we can find out that in which form of UI technology is it created; in web dynrpo java or web dynpro ABAP ?

    Hi,
    I am really not sure if this is recommended..
    Try some negative testing on the application. If the application crashes, the trace of the error occured will tell you what kind of development has been adopted for the Web Dynpro application.
    Another hint can be the port number in the Application URL. If it is not 50xxx, and is somewht like 8xxx, it is surely Web Dynpro for ABAP.
