SAP Customer's pain points
Although plenty of
business data has been
stocked in SAP for years,
theres no drastic ways
to allow all employees to
access/visualize
these data..

If subsystem
integrations
Once the system
(for data visualization
or UI extension) are becomes a black box,
implemented with its not easy to
legacy ABAP add-ons, continuously extend the
the dev/operation costs systems with flexibility ..
get extremely
expensive ..

SAP Enterprise Services
The most current way to call SAP business l
ogics from external systems
http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/esworkplace
Publishes SAPs business logics as Web services
Various vendors (including Microsoft) can technically
connect in this way
SAP increased # of services to 2,800 with their releas
e of Enhancement Pack 3
Differences from their legacy BAPI/RFC
Industry standard Web services instead of SAPs prop
rietary protocol
Easier service calls, parameter settings etc
However SAP ES is an brand new component
which is delivered only to SAP ERP 6.0 users 5
BizTalk Adapter Pack 1.0
One of Microsofts
strategic technologies
aligned with its LOB
integration initiative
Connectivity to Oracle,
DB2, IBM mainframe
etc already released
BizTalk Adapter Pack adds connectivity to SAP
and Siebel
ADO .NET (SAP, Siebel) and WCF (SAP, Siebel, Oracl
e)
A central hub between LOB and all Microsoft pr
oducts
6 6
BizTalk Adapter Pack functionality for SAP customers
Enables to execute following commands to SAP
RFC/BAPI execution
In addition to standard RFC, reliable protocols like tRFC (transactional RFC)
and qRFC (queued RFC) also supported
E.g. : Exec BAPI_CREDITCARD_CHECKNUMBER @CREDITCARD_TYPE=VIS
A, @CREDITCARD_NUMBER=43467645263495
Any operations can be done (including Update, Insert, Delete)
Data extract from SAP (ABAP) table/view objects
Select query (like OPENSQL) from SAP cluster tables, pool tables, transparent
tables, and SAP view objects
E.g. : select MATNR, SPRAS, MAKTX from MAKT where SPRAS = 'JA' or SPRAS
= 'EN
Possible to access all objects including customers add-on tables/views
Table join possible up to 2 tables
E.g. : select A.x, B.y from A inner join B on A.m = B.n
To join more than 3 tables add view objects on SAP
Insert, update, delete are not supported
All SAP (ABAP) versions/components later than R/3 4.6c (SAP kernel
4.6d) are supported
Every OS/DB platform, non-Unicode and Unicode
SAP R/3 (4.6c, 4.7 Enterprise), SAP ERP (2004, 6.0), SAP BW/CRM/SCM etc
