XI and abap requirment....

Hi everyone,
I have got the following requirment:
I will have to have a job/program running every hour that will make a list of the files left by XI Core, and will process with the transaction ff_5 file by file (A variant may need to be created).
Another job will have to be scheduled 30 minutes later, in order to delete the previous executed files so the files are not inserted twice in the system.
can anyone explain what steps i have to take to move ahead.
Do i have to create a report....do i have to use a bdc?
many questions....can anyone guide me on this....

Hi,
First let me tell u what is XI:
Xi is the middleware tool. u can search ion SDN to get more details.
XI are the component of SAP netweaver.
In XI: It is separated in two parts
1) XI basis (Administration)
Activites are:
1) XI installation
2) Configuration activitie
3) Post installation checks
4) SLD configuration
5) Create Users,
6) Role assignments.
And many more
2) XI Implementation and development.
Under the development you have two parts Integration repository which is desing part which involves small amount of Java knowledge whenever your requirement is not fulfilled by standard SAP XI function.
and integration Configuration:
This is very simple stpes once your design is over.Based on your requirement you have to use the standard adapter provided by SAP for example if file is coming then u will go for File adapter,if IDOC is psoted to R3 then you go for IDOC adapter,communication with remote client u go for SOAP adapter.
NOw coming to ur question moving for ABAP to XI. U do not require to move from ABAP to XI. As a XI resource u need ABAP skills as well.
ABAP skills will be advantage for you.
ABAP knowledge is required in the below scenarios:
1) While dealing with Proxies where u need to send the data from R3 system that time u need to write a select stmt and call the proxy method in roder to send the data from R3 to Legacy similary for reverse case some time u will get the data from legasy system and u need to fill the table in R3 system so that time again ABAP is used.
2) In dealing with RFCs/BAPIs where u r calling ur custom RFCs FM for any validations or taking the response from that RFCs
3) IDOC scenarios where if u r not using the SAP Std IDOCs u r extending the IDOCs where u required abap knoeledge for filling up the extended segments in user exit.

Any website for XSLT AND ABAP mapping

Hi XI experts,
I am looking for any good website/Material for XSLT and ABAP Mapping with examples.
So experts if you any one of you have any clue , i would appreciate it , if you post the info here .
Regds,
Ram.

Hi,
For XSLT mapping, please try to create msg types for sender and recv, import these two into XML Mapforces (This is a software which enables us to do mapping this you can download from altova mapforce site) , do mapping in that mapforce , late click on XSLT icon , one XSLT file will be c reated that file , prepare zip and late come to xi , import under imported archieves,do Interface mapping by selecting the XSLT mapping option, select imported archieve..
See below examples..

Netweaver Data base instances for Java and ABAP

Hello Experts,
Please help me to understand how the two technology stacks of SAP WAS (Java and ABAP) are configured to use underline data base in Netweaver.
Is it manadatory to have two separate data base schemas, one for ABAP applications and other for Java applications in the Netweaver?
If yes..the any idea about what are those schema differences??
- Rajan

Hello Krishna,
Thanks for the reply.
Is there any way I can access these shemas? Are they the same by structure or there are major differences?
My requirement is to build a common schema out of these two and have the data from these two schemas to be consolidated in the new schema.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Users mapping between EP and ABAP system

Hello
I'd like to ask for some guidance in my quest
Current situation looks like this:
I've configured UME in AS Java to work with LDAP as read only data source. Then I've configured SPNego to run SSO - It works, users from MS AD can log into portal.
Now I have application in WD which authorizes via EP/AD - works fine.
And next step is users mapping between AD and ABAP backend (serving some BAPI's for WD app)
I've found a bunch of help pages starting from
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwce711/helpdata/en/0b/d82c4142aef623e10000000a155106/frameset.htm
But somehow it's quite complicated to achieve this mapping. I've tried to set RFC destinations logon type to user mapping but without succes.
Can anyone point me to some more clear example or give path to configure this scenario? Is there a way of configuring this with NWA or some XML file editing is required?
Any help will be appreciated.
BTW: whole environment is in version 7.11
Best regards
Maciej

There is no equivalent to SPNEGO on the ABAP side.
If your goal is to propagate the user, then possible options are:
-> Wait for SAML 2.0 or invest now in a SAML 1.0 provider.
-> Use the same kerberos ticket for the EP as what your ABAP system will accept: route = SNC and 3rd party libraries.
-> Issue SAP logon tickets for the ABAP system from the EP, and use these in your WDA.
Another option is to expose the service with saved logon data in the ICF. If the service is just a wrapper for the BAPI, then you can also consider using trusted RFC between the service and the backend, but this might not be acceptable for your service.
I have only done experimental stuff with this and some of the above is not released yet. Also consider the consequences, even if it "does work"...
Cheers,
Julius

Form - Perform and ABAP coding

Hi:
I have a requirement to get vendor address from database and print on the form. I could print only one field only Name1, but not details like Street or country Etc are not getting printed. Even if we pass multiple variables as input and putput variables using perform of form, I think we need to declare only one input as INTTAB STRUCTURE ITCSY and one out put variable as OUTTAB STRUCTURE ITCSY in the ABAP program. In the program I am using Index option like 1, 2 and modifying details of OUTTAB. Is it correct?.
Still I am unable to print complete address on the form.
For this I am unsing Perfom option in the form.
Can you please help in the following:
1) Can I pass one value vendor from form using perform and get back a structure from ABAP program?.
2) I am using following:
         DEFINE &VENDOR_NAME& = ' '
         DEFINE &VENDOR_STREET& = ' '
         PERFORM GET_DATA IN PROGRAM Z_TEST
                   USING &VENDOR_NO&
                   CHANGING &VENDOR_NAME&
                   CHANGING &VENDOR_STREET&
         ENDPERFORM.
For Printing I am using inthe form
                    &VENDOR_NAME&
                    &VENDOR_STREET&
In the ABAP program I am using
FORM GET_DATA TABLES INTTAB STRUCTURE ITCSY
                     OUTTAB1 STRUCTURE ITCSY.
IF SY-SUBRC EQ 0.
    SELECT SINGLE NAME1 STR_SUPPL1
       FROM ADRC
       INTO (V_NAME1,V_STR_SUPPL1)
       WHERE ADDRNUMBER = V_ADRNR.
    IF SY-SUBRC EQ 0.
*- Name1
      READ TABLE OUTTAB1 INDEX 1.
      MOVE V_NAME1 TO OUTTAB1-VALUE.
      MODIFY OUTTAB1 INDEX SY-TABIX.
*- Street
      READ TABLE OUTTAB1 INDEX 2.
      MOVE V_STR_SUPPL1 TO OUTTAB1-VALUE.
      MODIFY OUTTAB1 INDEX SY-TABIX.
ENDIF.
Can you please check above code and let me know if I am doing mistake anywhere?..like passing variables, printing variables on the form and ABAP sub-routine etc.
Please do not copye again same code what is find in SAP ABAP help.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Thanks,
Rama

Naren:
Your code did not work...
Sorry I did not paste my complete code(when I posted message )as too much code might be confusing. Please find my code below:

BOR Object and ABAP Class

Hi,
Can anybody say when to use BOR object and Abap class in the task with an example.
Thanks,
Mugundhan

There is no any specific condition or rule that for this purpose you need to use BOR and Class , it depends on your requirement. not only the requirement but also the new techniques to make classes not just as simple way to create objects but when you use classes in the Workflows they are not simple classes but they are BUSINESS CLASSES which makes a lot of difference.

Difference java stack and abap stack

hello experts,
Difference between java stack and abap stack

Hi
ABAP Stack
The application data in the SAP system is accessed in
the ABAP stack via platform-independent ABAP programs.
ABAP stack is used to run ERP applications mainly MM,SD,FICO etc
Currently in most of the installation you can found mixed stack(ABAP+JAVA)
JAVA Stack
The Java side of the SAP Web AS is often referred to as SAPWeb AS Java or
as the Java stack.
This central SAP Web AS Java instance consists of two separate
instances plus one special application, the Software Deployment Manager (SDM).
These two separate instances that build the central SAP Web AS Java instance are
a standard SAP Web As Java instance, offering a Java dispatcher process and one
or more Java server processes and the so-called SAP Central Services instance
(SCS). The SCS instance offers two processes, exclusively used by the Java side
of the SAP Web AS: the enqueue services and the message service. These two
services only work for the Java side of the SAP system.
Java Stack is mainly used for SAP Portals and you can host Internet/Web based application written in JSP/EJB ,Java Stack uses Java Threads to run application,
Also, Xi requires Double stack
ABAP + JAVA Stacks
Bcoz some components are developed on JAVA
Some components are developed on ABAP Based.
JAVA:
Integration Builder
SLD
Adapter Engine
Runtime Workbench
ABAP:
BPE
Integration Engine
Integration Engine and the Integration server reside on the ABAP Stack. All the Execution of the IS part will be done on ABAP Stack. we can monitor the processed XML messages also in SXMB_MONI( ABAP Stack)
Adapter Engine will reside on the JAVA Stack. All the IR, ID, SLD, RWB Application are developed on JAVA Stack, so thats why we need JAVA Webstart to run these Applications
All the Adapter related Errors we can see in RWB, Communication channel monitoring( Developed and sits on JAVA stack)
Hope this clears your doubts
Thanks

JAVA API AND ABAP API SIMPLE SCENARIO

Hello MDM gurus
I have never used any Java API or ABAP API to leverage and present MDM functionalities on front end systems like portal,etc...
Could you please give me all the required to play around with JAVA api and ABAP api's.
Points will be given to every valuable answer.
Thanks

Hi Nazeer,
In order to use Portal you need Java APIs and to start with refer the MDM Java docs to get the basic idea of various classes and methods to be used in developing the simple java application and access it using portal.

Role Mapping For Portal Role Assignment and ABAP Role Assignment

Summary:
- Under the GRC configuration of Roles> Role Mapping we are trying to utilize the role mapping feature in GRC for associating a dependent role to a main role.
- We want to use this role mapping feature for the purposes of adding an Enterprise Portal role for every ABAP role that gets approved for the user in an ABAP component system (i.e. ECC, BW, CRM etc). We will have a 1:1 mapping of Enterprise Portal role to ABAP role defined in the role mapping section in GRC.
- We want to set up the workflow in such a way that the main role (ABAP role) is the only role that needs to be approved. The dependent role (Enterprise Portal role) should be added or not added based on the approval or denial of the main role (ABAP role). In other words if the role owner for the abap role approves the abap role, then both the abap and EP role will be provisioned by GRC and if the role owner rejects/denies the role, then neither the abap or EP role will be provisioned by GRC.
Problem Description:
Our Scenarios we tested:
Scenario 1:
Main Role: Attached to Initiator A & workflow A (routes to single approver based on role)
Dependent Role: Attached to Initiator B & workflow B (routes to auto approval or no approval)
*Problem with the Scenario 1setup above, the dependent role will always get approved & provisioned regardless of the approval or denial of the main role.
Scenario 2:
Main Role: Attached to Initiator A & workflow A (routes to single approver based on role)
Dependent Role: Attached to Initiator A & workflow A(routes to single approver (same as main approver) based on role)
*Problem with the Scenario 2 setup above, the dependent role will always also need to get approved by the same approver as main role and it opens the possibility that the approver may accidently approve the main role and deny the dependent role, which is not the ideal setup as we inherit the risk of human error.
Questions:
1. Does the dependent role need to be defined in an initiator at all since it will never directly be requested directly?
2. If the dependent role does need to be in the initiator file, please describe how to properly setup the initiator and workflow stage & path so that we can maintain the desired relationship with the main role approval dependency? (if the role owner for the main role approves the main role, then both the main role and dependent role will be provisioned by GRC and if the role owner rejects/denies the main role, then neither the main role or depedent role will be provisioned by GRC
Edited by: Rene Griffith on Feb 26, 2010 10:22 PM

I tested this set up.
1. Defined ABAP role as Manin role
2. Defined Non-ABAP role as dependednt role
3. ABAP role is set up in initiator requiring business approval.
4. Non-ABAP role is set up in initiator with no approval required.
Results Where Business Approver approves the ABAP Role
1. Only the ABAP role is displayed in approver view which is desirable.
2. ABAP role is approved and Non-ABAP role and ABAP role is provisioned.
Results Where Business Approver rejects the ABAP Role
1. Only the ABAP role is displayed in approver view which is desirable.
2. ABAP role is rejected but Non-ABAP role is provisioned which is not what we want. We want the Non-ABAP role not to provision if the ABAP role is rejected by the business approval.
Thanks again for your help.

Diff between sap query and abap query

diff between sap query and abap query

Hi,
ABAP query is mostly used by functional consultants.
SAP Query :
Purpose
The SAP Query application is used to create lists not already contained in the SAP standard system. It has been designed for users with little or no knowledge of the SAP programming language ABAP. SAP Query offers users a broad range of ways to define reporting programs and create different types of reports such as basic lists, statistics, and ranked lists.
Features
SAP Query's range of functions corresponds to the classical reporting functions available in the system. Requirements in this area such as list, statistic, or ranked list creation can be met using queries.
All the data required by users for their lists can be selected from any SAP table created by the customer.
To define a report, you first have to enter individual texts, such as titles, and select the fields and options which determine the report layout. Then you can edit list display in WYSIWYG mode whenever you want using drag and drop and the other toolbox functions available.
ABAP Query,:
As far as I Believe, is the use of select statements in the ABAP Programming. This needs a knowledge of Open SQL commands like Select,UPdtae, Modify etc. This has to be done only by someone who has a little bit of ABAP experience.
To sum up, SAP queries are readymade programs given by SAP, which the user can use making slight modification like the slection texts, the tables from which the data is to be retrieved and the format in which the data is to be displayed.ABAP queries become imperative when there is no such SAP query existing and also when there is a lot of customizing involved to use a SAP Query directly

we are working on PI and Abap connectivity and its done but,
when I execute SPROXY transaction in ECC, I see Service methods..I am not sure which method to use to write the ABAP code to push the data to PI server.
Earlier In XI 3.0 I used execute asynchronous method.
BUT here i have PI and am clueless with PI methods.
Can anyone share some documents or link or sample code to let me know under which method of PI i can write ABAP code ?
Thanks
Meeta

Hi
Could any body share with me the sample abap code for outbound in PI or XI and Abap connectivity via Proxy..

Data Archiving and ABAP

Hi All,
I am an ABAPer and recently came accross the process of data archiving..
Can anyone tell me what significance data archiving has w.r.t ABAP.Are they interrelated at any point??
Waiting for Reply..
Shilpa

Hi Shilpa,
As a developer you must be aware of the fact that what ever application are provided by SAP they all are using codes written in ABAP in background .
Similarly we have a tool Archive Developent Kit (ADK) provided by SAP that uses various programs written in ABAP grouped in the form of Archive object to perform Archiving Successfully in any system.
Yes Archiving and ABAP both are interrelated and an ABPER can very well understand how actually there programs functions at runtime while we Archive data from the database.
Another imporeant thing is apart from the standard Archive Objects provided by SAP sometimes requiremnets comes for custom Objects to be created which requires good indepth knowledge of ABAP.
I hope my answer will help you understand the assosiation of ABAP and Data Archiving.

How could JAVA API and ABAP API useful to MDM.

Hi Experts,
How could JAVA API and ABAP API useful to MDM, and any coding in Java or ABAP is required in MDM.

Hi Reema,
Java API and ABAP API are verry usefull to MDM to integrate MDM with other SAP componants like SAP R\3, EP etc. :
It dose not required any coding in MDM infact in JAVA API coding can be done on NWDS(Netweaver Developer Studio).And for ABAP API coding is done on SAP R\3 System in ABAP editor.
JAVA API:
By using Java API MDM client operations can be performed.For one need to install NWDS and to deploy some .jar files and with the help of standard classes and interfaces it can be connected to MDM server and various operations like create repository ,connect to repository ,Data mainuplation etc.
ABAP API:
Suppose you have an Expert abaper and you want him to perform MDM operations.In that case he need not to learn MDM basic Data types infact by doing some settings on R\3 and MDM server side an ABAPer can perform
MDM Cnsole and MDM Data Manager level operations.
you can go through these links

/people/bv.pillai/blog/2006/11/28/installing-mdmtech-add-on-and-configuring-the-mdm4a-mdm-for-abap-api
Here the coding is done on SAP R\3 system.
hope it will give you some idea about Java API and ABAP API
