XML scheme and Web services enhancement for MS Word integration in CRM 2007

Hi,
I am trying to use the Template designer and the web services tool in order to create a MS Word template for the quotation.
We have created a new web service, using the Web Service Tool
(transaction BSP_WD_CMPWB, type WS_DESIGN_TOOL). I can use this web service when creating a quotation word template and everything works fine.
I need to enhance the web service with some custom fields and logic. I found the blog:
Web-services enhancement for MS Word integration in CRM 2007
/people/community.user/blog/2008/11/18/web-services-enhancement-for-ms-word-integration-in-crm-2007
The blog describe how to enhance the web service, extend the output
structure etc.
We have done all the steps in the blog, and everything looks fine. When
we test the web service, using the Web Service Navigator, all the new
fields we added to the output structure are displayed. The WSDL
document also looks fine, displayed from the Web Service
Administration.
The problem occur when try to create the word template using the
Template Designer. The XML scheme is not displayed in the word
document. This only happens if we use an enhanced web service.
Anyone familiar with this issue?
Kind regards,
Johan Wigert

Hi,
You may have to upgrade your MS word 2003 to MS Word 2007.
Before you do that please opening View > toolbars > Task Pane and check if you can get XML Schema from the web service.

XML and Web Service Data Source Missing in Crystal Reports for VS

I would like to use a Web Service as the data source for a Crystal Report that will be running outside of my Visual Studio application. So setting the data source to the web service in code is not possible. My understanding is Crystal Reports has a connection (in the Database Expert under New Connection) named XML and Web Service. Here you can select web service and enter the WSDL URL for the web service. However it does not appear in the list for Crystal Reports for Visual Studio. Does this connection type come with the Visual Studio version of Crystal Reports and if not is their a way to obtain it?
Thank you for your assistance.

None of the bundled versions of CR have the driver. Reason is that the driver responsible for these connections requires the Java framework and I suspect MS would not be too pleased if we installed the Java framework. The stand alone versions, since they are not part of any bundle can and do install the Java framework and the driver. Note that even the latest release of CR - CRVS2010 does not have the driver as it essentially becomes a bundle or a VS2010 plug-in.
So, the short of it is; you have to obtain a stand-alone version of CR. I'd recommend CR 2008 (12.x) as CRXI R2 will run out of support in June of this year.

How do I send XML to a web service?

I am brand new to Flex. I am trying to write a program that
uses web services to send and receive data. I have gotten it so
that it can receive XML from the web service. However, I also need
to send it, and I am stuck.
I have tried the following code:
<mx:WebService id="MyService"
wsdl="
http://localhost/FlexTest/service1.asmx?WSDL"
useProxy="false"
result="resultHandler(event)">

<mx:operation
name="HelloPersonAcceptsXmlDocumentReturnsString">
<mx:request>
<personXmlDoc>xmlPerson</personXmlDoc>
</mx:request>
</mx:operation>

<mx:operation
name="HelloPersonAcceptsXmlNodeReturnsString">
<mx:request>
<personXmlNode>
xmlPerson.Person
</personXmlNode>
</mx:request>
</mx:operation>

<mx:operation
name="HelloPersonAcceptsXmlStringReturnsString">
<mx:request format="xml">
<personXmlString><p1:Person xmlns:p1="
http://impact-tech.com/schemas/FlexTest"><p1:ID>f1bd45fc-544b-489d-83cf-349d1f9740ec</p1:I D><p1:FirstName>Joe</p1:FirstName><p1:MiddleName>C.</p1:MiddleName><p1:LastName>Blow</p1:L astName><p1:BirthDate>2006-09-11T14:03:04.4755443-04:00</p1:BirthDate><p1:IsMarried>false< /p1:IsMarried><p1:NumChildren>0</p1:NumChildren><p1:NetWorth>100000</p1:NetWorth></p1:Pers on></personXmlString>


</mx:request>
</mx:operation>
</mx:WebService>
In the first operation,
"HelloPersonAcceptsXmlDocumentReturnsString", I try to send an XML
object. In the second operation,
"HelloPersonAcceptsXmlNodeReturnsString", I try to send the root
node, xmlPerson.Person. In both cases, what actually gets sent is
literally the text that I put in the <request>node, not the
object that text is referencing. So for the first, "xmlPerson" gets
sent to the target, not the XML doc that it refers to.
In the third operation, I tried three different things, and
two are commented out. I tried to reference the XML object using
the toXmlString() method, but again, it literally sent the text
"xmlPerson.toXmlString()". I tried the curly-brace binding, but
then nothing gets sent to the web service. I also tried building
the actual XML document node by node, with values, but I get an
error from the web service saying it can't be parsed because there
is an illegal character at Line 1, Position1. The only thing which
has worked has been to add an Input Text box, copy-and-paste the
exact same XML structure as I tried to manually build, and then use
binding to the text property of the InputText control. Then it
works fine. But I can't actually do that, it's just for testing.
So my question is how to make a <request> node that is
part of the web service operation that references an object and
sends the value of that object to the web service, not literally
whatever text is typed in that node. I looked at the Web Services
and Data Binding sections of the help, and didn't see any examples
covering this. Everything was far more simplistic with binding to
controls. Can anyone help a newbie, please?

I don't understand how this isn't a Flex Builder question,
since it has to do with how Flex Builder interacts with web
services and how objects are used in binding in MXML.
But at any rate, I got this code to work, for future
reference of anyone else looking in this forum:
Declaring a custom class in MXML was key to allow proper
binding:
<CustomClasses:Person id="testPerson" xmlns:local="*"/>
<mx:WebService id="MyService"
wsdl="
http://66.129.123.211/FlexTest/service1.asmx?WSDL"
useProxy="false"
result="resultHandler(event)">

<mx:operation
name="HelloPersonAcceptsXmlDocumentReturnsString">
<mx:request>
<personXmlDoc>{testPerson.GetXmlDoc()}</personXmlDoc>
</mx:request>
</mx:operation>
</mx:WebService>

How to create a proxy to retrieve the xml file from web services

Hi Every one,
We have a requirment where we receive a xml file from Kenexa, a third party HR tool using a middleware tool. from SAP side We have to create a proxy to retrieve the xml file from web services by initiating call through middleware tool i used earlier.
these are the steps i intend to follow to accomlish the requirement.
1) middleware tool has to initiate the call to kenexa web services to receive the xml file when it is available.
2) On SAP we need to create a ABAP Proxy service provider to middleware where this file can be received.
Can any one guide me how i can create a proxy to retrieve the xml file from web services by initiating call through other middlewre (its not PI).
Any help would be really great, i am not a ABAP developer, so please help me with this. Thanks.

Thank for reply.
The computers are in different locations, but yes it's possible, the users in this enviroment are all local administrator of the machines, and we can distribute the script centrally from the DC automatically
Acrobat use Java, right? I'm not so expert in java, but something about it could not be so difficult to manage.
Do you know some place where i can get some info about JS and acrobat?

Return XML document through Web Service?

Hello,
Is it possible to return a XML document from a web service?
For example, I have a Oracle Report that outputs in XML format, is it possible to return that through a web service?
Any suggestions or pointers will be most appreciated.

XML Beans in Web Services / .xsd compilation

Hello friends -
I've been told of many wonderful things that can be accomplished by using XML
beans in web service style integrations. However, I'm running into trouble actually
getting anything done and was hoping someone could give me a few pointers. I'm
trying to work inside Workshop 8.1 with the BEA server (i.e., not platform)
- Documentation seems to reference the ability to compile an .xsd in order to
get an XML Bean class representing your XML. However, I cannot find anything
telling me how to do this. Is this supported in Workshop?
- I'm only showing some classes referenced in the XML Beans Javadoc area as available
inside my workshop IDE. For example, com.bea.xml.XmlBeans is not available.
Is this a result of me using Server as opposed to the more complete Platform
product?
- Does anyone have a simple example .jws that utilizes a XML bean as an input
or output? If so, I'd love to see it.
Thanks so much.

Hi,
I thought passing XMLs was supported using SOAP. In this case, the XML data in the SOAP body is type "string" and the namespace of the XML inside separates it from the rest of the SOAP package. Can I do the same with...say... Web Dynpro where the WSDL is used to generate proxy classes. How do I add a namespace in the SOAP header so that I can add the XML in the body?
I propose that life would be much easier if a datatype called XML, or some option before the WSDL is imported to create proxy classes is available which creates a wrapper for adding XML data. Far fetched...but can be done. Whats you opinion?

Messages Monitoring and Web Services Sequences .... SOAMANAGER

When can I use Mesage Monitoring and Sequence Monitoring .
We are making a proof a concept and we are the following.
1. A program which executes a proxy and with this proxy we are consuming a web services.
2. The proxy and web services were implemented in the same Abap Machine .
3. We execute the test and everything works very well and we consume the webservice and the program displays the expected result.
Now want to know How can we use the Message Monitoring and the Sequence Monitoring . Is this posible ? Do we have to make any previous configuration?
We don´t have any XI installation and for that we wonder if we can monitorize the webservices sequences ?
Any idea about if we can realize such king of actions ..
Many Thanks

hi,
short answer: you can't. to my knowledge there is no such thing as message/sequence monitoring outside of PI/XI.
the only thing you can do is to enable debugging and access some debugging info from ST22. other than that you do not have access to the original (XML) message, the HTTP headers or the ST(simple transformation) info or anything else.

Can't run wiki and web services at the same time?

I'm a newbie with Lion Server, but I've been running several web sites successfully for about 6 months. I'm up to Server 10.7.4.
I've been trying ever since the first installation of Server to get the wiki service running. I had absolutely no luck until I turned OFF the web service (always got the "URL does not exist" error when I tried to create a group wiki from inside the Server app). With the web service off, it all starts up fine and I created my first wiki (woohoo). Turning web service back on kills access to the wiki. I don't find reference to this in any of the dicussions, and especially not in Apple's documentation.
Are the Wiki and Web services mutually exclusive? Or is there a way around this?
I'm using Dyndns to provide me with sub-domains to use, and I've dedicated one of them to the wiki service. Traffic comes in on port 8080, where my web sites are on port 80.
Thanks for any pointers...

LR supports tethering using a Canon DLL and EOS Utility probably also supports tethering or at least uses something from a similar Canon DLL. You probably cannot have two different versions of that DLL loaded at the same time, so it makes sense there are problems.

Hi
I assumes u have dual stack.
You can do the sequence monitoring with or without PI. But without PI you would achieve that thing on the local machine.
You have to do those things at Java End using SAP NWA.

SSL certificates and Web Services Usage inside Oracle Database Questions!

We have implemented a specific business logic using PL/SQL for our client, so we open a file and process each line of this, doing something in the Database and also call a Web Services (Service1) using UTL_HTTP package. Service1 runs in a Windows 2008 Server in the DMZ as Database server.
Service1 is already working, and we can call the service from PL/SQL without troubles.
However, according with security client's policies they requires all Web services be consumed via https including Service1, so we must to follow the procedure established for Oracle in order to enable the calling of service1 via https from the Database.
Our client's DBA and IT Team are concerned about two subjects before to continue to follow the certificate installation:
     - SSL Certificates:
1- Can installed certificates in the Database put in risk the stability of the database?
          2- Can installed certificates in the Database generate performance issues?
          3- Can installed certificates reloading the Databases?
          2- Can installed certificates in the Database generate security issues?
     - Web services:
1- Can web services calling from the Database put in risk the stability of the database?
2- Can web services calling from the Database generate performance issues?
3- Can web services calling from the Database generate security issues in the DMZ?
Could you please give us any clues, about the possible negative impact related with the SSL certificates and Web Services Usage inside Oracle Database, if it’s the case this impact exists?.
Those are the links describing the procedure mentioned above.

DB: Oracle 9i.
Average number of lines in file: 300
Periodicity: Twice at day.

Thiago:
You are correct in that there should be no problem interacting with a Web service that has an HTTPS endpoint as long as you create a wallet and specify it when you make your UTL_HTTP calls, like the PayPal example.
I am not aware of a PL/SQL utility to create a XMLDsig Standard message, but if you find some Java source out there that does it, you may be able to follow a technique I used for a similar use case:

Custom Portal Services and Web services

Can you please tell me what exactly are "custom portal services" and "web services" with a business like/ real life example?
How do you go about developing deploying and utilizing these services in Portal?
Thanks.

Hi navin,
Thanks for the par file.
Duly awarded points.
I need your help again.
I wish to use the method
public String getWelcomeString(String name)
in my own portal application to test usage of portal services.
So I uploaded your par file on my server.
Then I added the api and core jar files which came along with your par in my project as external jar files.
I imported com.wickes.WickesService.*;
Next, to use the service I coded:
IPortalRuntimeResources rs =
PortalRuntime.getRuntimeResources();
IWickesService ws = (IWickesService) rs.getService(IWickesService.KEY);
But now I am stuck and I dont know how to proceed.
Please help.

GTC Connector using SPML Format Provider and Web Services Transport Provide

Hello All,
Did any body create a GTC connector which uses SPML Format for Format Provider and Web Services format for Transport Provider?
Is there any doc which talks about the same?
I need to provision to a system over web services and I thought GTC using the above formats should be an easy approach. Am I right?
I was trying to follow:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14571_01/doc.1111/e14309/devgtc.htm#BABDFDFE
But Iam getting lost in the immerse details.
Thanks in advance.

Hi ,
I tried creating one and am getting the following error while provisioning:
SPML Response failed V2 schema validation
Th eoracle document says :Ensure that the SPML response returned by the target system conforms to the SPML V2 standard specification
Please help me with the same. What is it that needs to be done here.
Thanks
