XI Runtime Work Bench integration in SAP EP

Hi,
I have a requirement which needs integration of XI Runtime Workbench in Portal.
The requirement is to view the error messages in Portal.
Can we directly call the error details screen using the error code.
Best Regards
Sid

IN RWB ther are various moniotinrg options...so have to monitor based on the interface details or date and also it will alow you to monitor like all the errored out messages etc....

Diff bet sxmb_moni&runtime work bench

what is diffrence between SXMB_MONI & runtime work bench?

Hi,
Moni:
SXI_Monitor / SXMB_MONI is used for monitoring of XML messages either in error or success or in System error and in other status. You can check messages here for all of your interfaces.
SXMB_MONI is the monitoring tool for all the message processing and shows different pipeline steps like receiver determination,interface determination and mapping ..etc....
You can see the status of message after reaching the Intergration server from the sender adapter to the before delivering to the receiver adapter from IS.
SXMB_MONI is for Integration Engine monitoring, it provides Additional monitoring functions for the Integration Engine. u have outbound and inbound processes in XI and XML message processing happens in I.E in both the cases.
u can monitor both sender and receiver XML messgaes processed in integration engine. bcz both sender and receiver messages must have to pass through I.E runtime.
u can monitor all pipeline steps happens in I.E at runtime, and MONI displays runtime versions of xml messages.
refer these links to understand the message flow and monitoring features:
http://help.sap.com/search/highlightContent.jsp
/people/siva.maranani/blog/2005/05/25/understanding-message-flow-in-xi
For BPM you can use SXMB_MONI_BPE.
RWB
With the help of Runtime Workbench we can able to monitor the following ...
1. Component Monitoring --- we can monitor all the components w.r.t to xi are working fine
2. Message Monitoring --- Here we can check the errors with Integration Engine and Adapter Engine.
3. End -to - End Monitoring
4. Performance Monitoring
5. Alert Configuration
6. Alert Inbox .. etc..,
Just check these links:

Access to Alert Configuration in Runtime Work bench of PI

Hi Team,
I have created alerts using ALRTCATDEF in ABAP stack of PI. Now, I am able to login to RWB in SAP PI but not able to edit Alert configuration where in we check if the error is related to Integration Engine or Adapter Engine . I want to know what roles does my user need to get added at ABAP level or Javel level to configure alerts. Not sure if this question needs to be posted here. But I am posting since XI administrator might help me with the solution.
Thanks,
Raj

Hi Raj,
I think you should be fine when using role SAP_XI_RWB_SERV_USER. This is the role for the Runtime Workbench User.
Kind regards,
Mark

ADAPTER engine not found in runtime work bench

Hi Experts,
I am not able to see the adapter engine in the component monitoring in RWB .
What may be the probelm ?
Thanks in advance and best regards,
Anil

Hi Anil,
The adapter needs to register itself in SLD.
For this there is template task which should have done this automatically. If not the Basis team could trigger the self-registration of adapter engine in visual admin.
For more info refer to the link
[Adapter Engine Self Registration|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/43/8dde24cbdc6353e10000000a11466f/frameset.htm]

Hi,
To add an alert rule, you will first have to select the Alert category.
In your Alert Configuration page, click on UPDATE TABLE. Then, click on the SQUARE button on the left of your ALERT CATEGORY.
After you select the Alert Category, the ADD RULE button will get anabled.
Check XIRWBUSER Roles are below;
SAP_BC_BASIS_ADMIN
SAP_BC_BASIS_MONITORING
SAP_XI_RWB_SERV_USER
SAP_XI_RWB_SERV_USER_MAIN
Also it may be due to browser privacy and security issue.

JavaScript onKeyUp() not working in a BSP integrated in SAP GUI

hi everybody.
we want to run a bsp application in sap gui using the Javascript based WYMeditor.(http://www.wymeditor.org/) But thought this wysiwyg editor is working fine while testing in a seperate browser window it won't work while integrated in SAP GUI.
It seems that the editor reacts with the Javascript onKeyUp() method to the user's input and that this won't work while running in SAP GUI because the keyboard events are intercepted by the SAP GUI.
The BSP is integrated in the GUI using a cl_gui_custom_container control and its SHOW_URL method.
We would be glad if anyone could help. Thanks in adavance!
regards,
Stefan

hmm... seems that nobody have had such a problem before.
the strange thing is that the editor works fine when the website is loaded the first time. but when any event is triggered due to the click of a button and the site is loaded again, the editor won't work. and the html-code and javascript is exactly the same!
so what happens when the eventing (do_handle_event) of the mvc model of the bsp is triggered? i would be glad if anyone would have some ideas.

Desktop Office Integration in SAP GUI for HTML - dont works?

Hello all,
my program reads an Excel-File with multiple Worksheets into SAP by using class:
CL_GUI_CUSTOM_CONTAINER
and intefaces:
I_OI_CONTAINER_CONTROL,
I_OI_DOCUMENT_PROXY AND
I_OI_SPREADSHEET.
All works fine, but when I integrated the SAP Transaction into our Portal and using the Program through the WEBGUI it dont works.
It looks like that he can't create a container Control, to open the File in Background in Excel.
I worked with Desktop Office Integration to read all Worksheets into SAP, like here:
http://abap-explorer.blogspot.com/2008/12/upload-data-from-multiple-worksheets-of.html
Is there any solution to solve my problem?
it returns me this message
"Cannot initialize control"
It seems that the error comes from this Method in Webgui:
Data iref_document    type ref to i_oi_document_proxy.
call method iref_document->open_document
    exporting
      document_title = 'Excel'
      document_url   = v_document_url
      open_inplace   = 'X'
    importing
      error          = iref_error.
if iref_error->has_failed = 'X'.
    call method iref_error->raise_message
      exporting
        type = 'I'.
    leave list-processing.
    exit.
endif.
I hope someone can help me.
Thanks.

Can we develop EP(enterprise portals) using sap work bench?

hi,
i know that we can develop portals using NWDS. But i want to know can we develop EP using sap work bench or any other transaction.

Hi Arafat,
I was trying to post few links from SAP Technical website. But, it is not allowing me post that links on here. You can have a look on their website as well. They have got some really good tutorials on EP and Webdynpro ABAP/JAVA.

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...

Jitesh Talreja

Crytal Integration with SAP BW

Need help.
I have read some links at SDN, like Getting started link on BO and also [http://www.businessobjects.com/product/packages/] to understand do we have to buy any additional licenses to use Crytal reports with my SAP BI 70?
1) We already own Crystal Enterprise. We are using for Non SAP Data
2) I remember to see SAP's integration kit in BW 3.5 and toolset to allow creating Crystal Reports on BW Queries. Also remember as SAP Customer we have access to create 10 queries even when we do not have Crystal License.
3) Since we have Crystal Enterprise already, do we need to buy additional Licenses for using it for SAP BW.
My question is limited to Crytal because SAP had some content development relationship with Crystal before.
BusinessObjects XI Integration Kit for SAP wiill certainly will allow it but is it really needed for Crystal Reports?
Can some one clarify?
Pankaj

hi pankaj,
Integration of SAP BW 3.5 and SAP EP 5.0
Use
You can integrate a number of objects and applications of SAP BW 3.5 into SAP EP 5.0.
SAP EP 5.0 includes the following objects:
Applications are designated as Services in the Enterprise Portal.
With the integration of roles, the role migration from all services automatically creates External Services, as long as the services have not been saved in the BEx Web Application Designer as iViews. External services are displayed in the portal as applications that fill an entire page.
iViews are services that encompass an entire page in the portal. A portal page can consist of several iViews from different systems and sources (for example, the Web).
iView files are files with the ending .ivu that include a description of the iView in XML. You can import IView files without direct role migration into the portal.
Prerequisites
You have made the necessary settings in SAP BW 3.5 and SAP EP 5.0. You can find more information under Making Settings for SAP BW 3.5 and SAP EP 5.0.
Features
You can use the following BW services in the SAP Enterprise Portal 5.0:
·        BEx Web application
·        BEx Web Application As an iView
·        BEx Web application as an iView file
·        BW query
·        BW workbook
·        Crystal Report
The following options are available for integration:
·        BW services integration using roles with the help of role migration
For more information, see Integration Using Roles.
·        Integration of BEx Web applications using the function Publish ® In the Enterprise Portal 5.0 as an iView in the BEx Web Application Designer
For more information, see Integration Using iViews.
·        Integration of BEx Web applications using the function Publish ® In the Enterprise Portal 5.0 as an iView in the BEx Web Application Designer
For more information, see Integration Using iViews.
·        Integration of BEx Web applications using Create as External Service in the Portal
You can find additional information in the Enterprise Portal documentation in the SAP Help Portal (http://help.sap.com) ® SAP NetWeaver ® SAP Enterprise Portal ® EP5.0 SP6 ® Administration Guide ® iViews ® Java iViews ® Creating Java iViews ® Creating Java iViews for BEx Web Applications.
·        Integration of BW services using the iView Wizard in the portal
For more information, see Integrating BW Services Using the iView Wizard .
The integration of BW contents into the Enterprise Portal ideally takes place using Web applications and queries that run in the Web browser. In some circumstances, you can also integrate other BW components, such as the Administrator Workbench or the BEx tools BEx Query Designer, BEx Web Application Designer, or BEx Analyzer into the Portal. For more information, see Integration of BW Components into the Portal.
Integration Using Roles
Use
You can save all of the BW services supported by the Portal - except for the iView files in the BW system. By using role migration you can integrate these BW services quickly and easily into the portal.
You can find additional information in the Enterprise Portal documentation in the SAP Help Portal (http://help.sap.com) ® SAP NetWeaver ® SAP Enterprise Portal ® EP5.0 SP6 ® Administration Guide ® Roles ® Roles and SAP Systems ® Migration of SAP Roles to the Enterprise Portal ® Using Migrated Services to Roles and Worksets.
Features
The migration logs are usually stored under ...irj
esourcesSAPMigration.
The location of the irj directories is dependent on the J2EE Server.
Checking Migration:
You can check the migration via Content Admin ® Roles. You can use Preview to execute the migrated services both in the View Areaand in the Edit Area. If you have assigned a role to a user, you can check the total role completely.
Integration Using iViews
Use
The integration of the BW system and the portal with iViews is possible by using the role migration and the import of iView files. iViews are structured in the portal in channels.
Features
Role migration
With role migration, the iViews contained in the BW role are created in the iView server, where a separate channel is created for each role migrated from the BW system. The channel receives the name of the migrated BW role automatically from the system.
You can view the migrated iViews in the portal in the iView editor by using Content-Admin ® iViews. Select the name of the channel there.
If the iViews already exist in the portal, they are neither deleted nor overwritten. You can remove the iViews manually by using Edit ® Delete.
Import of iView files
BW iViews are in the portal Java iViews.
       1.      Therefore, choose the category Java iViews before the import.
       2.      In the iView editor under Content-Admin ® iViews, choose the Import function.
iViews are currently only supported in one language (English).If the English language is not maintained for an iView, then a technical name is created from the logical system and from the BW template ID.
You can change the texts for iViews using Content Admin ® iViews. Select an iView and choose Edit.
In addition, note that with BEx Web applications under Content Admin ® iViews ® Edit on the Load tab page, the iView Load Method Bypass iView Server has to be activated.
Check
Under Content Admin ® iViews, you will find next to each iView a Preview link that enables the execution of an iView.
For the display of iViews in the portal, the assignment of iViews to the portal pages and their assignment to roles is necessary.
Assigning iViews to pages
       1.      Under Content-Admin ® Pages, choose the New function to create new pages in the portal.
       2.      Under the Content tab page, select the iViews you want.
If necessary, you need to change the Display selection to All or Not Selected to select new iViews.
You can find additional information in the Enterprise Portal documentation in the SAP Help Portal (http://help.sap.com) ® SAP NetWeaver ® SAP Enterprise Portal ® EP 5.0 SP5 ® Administration Guide ® Pages ® Defining the Page Content (Content tab).
Assigning pages to roles
       1.      Before a page is able to be viewed by a user, you have to assign it to a role.
       2.      Under Content-Admin ® Roles, select a role for editing and choose Edit.
       3.      Under View Area ® Show, select the Pages entry.
       4.      Select a page and choose Add to add it to a role.
If necessary, select the file as Is Entry Point, so that the page is then able to be viewed.
The option Mark first-level folders as entry point means that the file is valid on the highest level in the role as the point of entry. This selection causes assigned users to this role to receive this file, displayed in the initial navigation bar.
You can also restrict this setting subsequently with the help of Content Admin ® Roles for the specific file.
You can find additional information in the Enterprise Portal documentation in the SAP Help Portal (http://help.sap.com) ® SAP NetWeaver ® SAP Enterprise Portal ® EP 5.0 SP5 ® Administration Guide ® Roles ® Role Maintenance ® Creating Roles and Assigning Contents ® Assignment of Content Objects to Roles.
Assigning roles
Afterwards, you have to assign the particular role to the user.
You can find additional information in the Enterprise Portal documentation in the SAP Help Portal (http://help.sap.com) ® SAP NetWeaver ® SAP Enterprise Portal ® EP 5.0 SP5 ® Administration Guide ® User Management ® Assignment of Users and Groups to Roles.
Check
To check iViews in the portal according to the assignments described above, you need to call up the portal again.
Calling up the Enterprise Portal is possible by using the URL http:///sapportal.

In addition to the integration of iViews using role migration, you can also use the iView wizard in the portal to integrate iViews into the portal.
Procedure
Call up the iView wizard using Content-Admin ® iViews.
As the type, choose Java.
Choose New iView.
On the Info tab page, specify a Unique Name and an iView Title.
On the Load tab page, choose the iView Load Method Bypass iView Server.
On the Java tab page, choose BW Web Application as the application type.
Choose Next.
Select the BW system from the dropdown box.
Specify the BW Query String.
Choose Finish.
Choose Add.
The BW Query String is the part of the BEx Web application URL that is found after the question mark, for example, ?cmd=ldoc&template=0Query_template.
You obtain the query string.
in the BEx Web application designer:
Choose Web Template ® Open to open the Web template for the BEx Web application you want.
Select the Web template from your history, your favorites, or your rolls by double clicking on it.
In the Web application designer, choose Publish ® Copy URL in Clipboard.
in the Web application executed on the Web
Note that the Web application has to be in its initial status. That means that you have not yet navigated there, but rather that you only displayed the Web application on the Web.
In the context menu for Internet Explorer, choose Properties.
Select the Address (URL) and choose Copy in the context menu.
You now have the URL on the clipboard and can then use the query string for entry in the iView wizard.
Note that you have to specify the correct stylesheet when creating iViews manually.
Choose under Content-Admin ® iViews next to the Edit iView.
On the Java tab page, select the BIReports30 stylesheet under Look and Feel Theme Part for BW Reports.
Using System Configuration ® Styles, you can edit stylesheets that each user can then select themselves using Personalize: Portal.
The style editor also contains entries for BEx Web applications under Elements ® Complex Elements.
The modified stylesheets are transferred automatically to the BW system so that the BEx Web Applications are suitably displayed in the stylesheet for the portal.
Check
Under Content Admin ® iViews, you will find next to each iView a Preview link that enables the execution of an iView.
Result
You have now integrated a Web application as an iView into the portal. Before you can display the iView in the portal, you have to assign the iView to a page. The page has to be assigned to your role. See also Integrating Using iViews.
Integration of BW Components into the Portal
Use
The integration of BW contents into the Enterprise Portal ideally takes place using Web applications and queries that run in the Web browser. In some circumstances, you can also integrate other BW components, such as the Administrator Workbench or the BEx tools BEx Query Designer, BEx Web Application Designer, or BEx Analyzer into the Portal.
Features
Calling the Administrator Workbench
The Administrator Workbench is a comprehensive SAP transaction that functions only in connection with a locally-installed SAP GUI for Windows. With a SAP GUI for Windows 6.20, you do not have to log on again if you want to display SAP GUI for Windows transactions on the Web (single sign-on is supported).
You can generate the Administrator Workbench in the portal as an external service either using SAP role migration or manually by way of the following steps:
Start the External Service wizard from Content Admin/Roles/Edit Area/External Service and choose Create.
Select the BW system.
Choose SAP Transaction as the application type.
Choose WinGUI as the GUI type.
As the transaction code, enter RSA1.
You can now assign the External Service to a role.
Calling the Business Explorer Analyzer
The Business Explorer Analyzer (BEx Analyzer) is an Excel add-in with extensive OLAP functionality in connection with a BW system. In order to use the BEx Analyzer, you have to have the SAP GUI for Windows with the BW Frontend installed locally. For technical reasons, the BEx Analyzer opens in a separate window. You do not have to log on again because single sign-on is supported. A SAP GUI for Windows appears in the Enterprise Portal window in the work area.
You can generate the Administrator Workbench in the portal as an external service either using SAP role migration or manually by way of the following steps:
Start the External Service wizard from Content Admin/Roles/Edit Area/External Service and choose Create.
Select the BW system.
Choose SAP Transaction as the application type.
Choose WinGUI as the GUI type.
As the transaction code, enter RRMX.
You can now assign the External Service to a role.
Calling BW Workbooks
BW workbooks are MS Excel workbooks with one or more embedded queries. BW workbooks need the BEx Analyzer, which requires a local installation of the SAP GUI for Windows with the BW Frontend.
The Enterprise Portal is an application that runs on the Web. BW workbooks are suitable for Windows with Excel.
We recommend that you use BEx Web applications in the Enterprise Portal that also run completely in the Web browser.
You can use the function Export as Excel 2000 File from the Web application context menu as an alternative to a local installation of the BW Frontend if you need to use the functions of Excel. See Functions of the Context Menu and Exporting as a CSV File/Excel 2000 File.
SAP role migration automatically generates external services that point to BW workbooks. HERE AND CHECK PATHS
Start the External Service wizard from Content Admin/Roles/Edit Area/External Service and choose Create.
Select the BW system.
Choose SAP Transaction as the application type.
Choose WinGUI as the GUI type.
As the transaction code, enter RRMXP.
Choose Finish to save the external service.
You then have to add the following parameters using Edit since you cannot enter these using the wizard.
The parameter Additional Dynpro Parameters name-value-pairs (n1=v1;n2=v2;... optional allows the workbook ID to be specified (for example WBID=CN24XRCKJ8HDDIZ3CCUTGPF1A).
Under Process first screen automatically?, enter the value True.
You can now assign the External Service to a role.
Calling the Business Explorer Web Application Designer
The Enterprise Portal is an application that runs on the Web. The BEx Web Application Designer is a Windows application. It is technically possible to start Windows applications in the Web browser but this is not recommended for security reasons. Instead, you call the Windows application BEx Web Application Designer from the Windows start menu.
If necessary, you can create an HTML page on a Web server that contains the link file://C:/Program%20Files/SAP/FrontEnd/Bw/wdbpwpub.exe.
Note that the path is dependent on the local installation directory. Single sign-on is not supported.
Calling the Business Explorer Query Designer
The Enterprise Portal is an application that runs on the Web. The BEx Query Designer is a Windows application. It is technically possible to start Windows applications in the Web browser but this is not recommended for security reasons. Instead, you call the Windows application BEx Query Designer from the Windows start menu.
As an alternative to the BEx Query Designer, in a Web environment such as the Enterprise Portal, you can use the BEx Ad-hoc Query Designer to create or change queries. You can insert the Ad-hoc Query Designer into a Web application and integrate it using the role migration, for example, or as an iView into the Enterprise Portal. For more information, see Functions of the Ad-hoc Query Designer.
If necessary, you can create an HTML page on a Web server that contains the link file://C:/Program%20Files/SAP/FrontEnd/Bw/wdbrlog.exe.
Note that the path is dependent on the local installation directory. Single sign-on is not supported.
Calling the Business Explorer Browser
The BEx Browser behaves like the BEx Web Application Designer or the BEx Query Designer.
There is little point in using the BW-specific BEx Browser in a company-wide Enterprise Portal because the basic functionality of the BEx Browser (calling reports) is covered in the Enterprise Portal.

Differences SAP BW 3.5 SAP EP 6.0 & SAP BW 2.x/3.x SAP EP 5
Use of BW Objects in the Enterprise Portal
For the end user, there are no significant differences in the integration between SAP BW and SAP EP as regards the various release combinations. The updates and changes in SAP Enterprise Portal 6.0 have no effect on the use of BW objects in the portal. You can find more information on the changes under Differences between SAP EP 5.0 and SAP EP 6.0.
Publishing BW Objects to the Enterprise Portal
There are significant differences in publishing of BEx Web applications in SAP EP 6.0 with SAP BW 3.5 in comparison to integration between SAP BW 2.x/3.x - SAP EP 5.0. Publishing in SAP BW 3.5 is done using the BEx Web Application Designer, BEx Query Designer or the BEx Broadcaster.
In SAP EP 5.0, the SAP BW system (or the SAP BW systems) is maintained in the system landscape, through which a call of BEx Web applications is possible at runtime. In SAP BW 2.x/3.x systems, the SAP Enterprise Portal (or SAP Enterprise Portals) are not maintained. Thus a BW system only has a one-sided connected to a portal. For this reason, the inclusion of BW content must also be done in a separate step in the portal.
In SAP EP 6.0, the SAP BW system is also maintained in the system landscape. In addition, one or more SAP Enterprise Portals 6.0 can be entered in the SAP BW 3.5 system. Through deployment of Java components of SAP BW 3.5 into SAP EP 6.0, the SAP BW 3.5 System can access and display contents of the portal. In the BEx Application Designer, assigned portal roles, content from the Portal Content Catalog, and documents and folders from Knowledge Management are displayed in the open and save dialogs. During save, iViews or documents can be created directly from the BEx Web Application Designer or BEx Query Designer without having to take separate steps in the portal. Using Information Broadcasting, documents and links can be generated in Knowledge Management. These documents and links can be visualized using the BEx Portfolio.
You can find more information on integration options under Integration of SAP BW 3.5 and SAP EP 6.0.

Implementing F4 Help functionality of ABAP work bench on Adobe form

Hi ,
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/42/c8a3ccc84e136ee10000000a1553f7/frameset.htm
Above link gives following description about Web Dynpro Form UI Element ValueHelpDropDownList
<b>ValueHelpDropDownList contains the script that is required for the link to the server in order to retain the elements of the list field from the back end at runtime. This Library object enables the end user to set up an input help request to the SAP server. This request always works in online mode, but not in offline mode. A server-side update of the input help is possible.</b>
Please explain me how ValueHelpDropDownList UI Element works .
Please correct my understanding -
We use a RFC adaptive model BAPI to retrive data from R/3 system and bind the variable to ValueHelpDropDownList UI Element . This means we get the data from backend in intialization of PDF form ( It means it is one time activity which will be used to extract data from R/3 system to display to end user ).
Is there any alternative by which we can get data from R/3 system ( some thing similar to F4 help in ABAP work bench ).
Please let me know if any one implemented this functionality .
Regards,
Nanda

Hi Ankit,
Thanks for a reply. Could you please explain the details? I am mapping a context attribute to the whole column and the value help button besides the field.
Thanks
Samatha.

SAP Sourcing 7.0 integration with SAP ERP - issue with SAP PI

Hi All,
We are integrating SAP Sourcing 7.0 with SAP ERP 6.0 with SAP PI 7.1 in middle. So the Sourcing will talk to PI and this intern will talk to ERP. Sourcing is on oracle 11g where as PI and ERP are on SQL 2008. All these 3 are on windows 2003 x64.
We are following the "Configuration Guide Integration of SAP ERP and SAP Sourcing 7.0" provided by SAP.
We have successfully configured Sourcing and PI systems as pe the document. In Sourcing, by using background jobs we are able to successfully generate files in "export" folder which is part of FTP directory.
However the issue is with PI, we configured the "configuration scenerio" in Integration builder and point all channels to the FTP folder in Sourcing. But PI is not picking up these files.
Is there any way to trigger this in PI system. Or do we need to do anything in sourcing itself.
Regards,
Siva.

Hello Siva,
I am thinking that you may need to deploy FTP adapter in PI to get this process work fine but not sure.
Let's see what other experts suggest.
Thanks,
Siva Kumar
