Although plenty of
business data has been
stocked in SAP for years,
there’s no drastic ways to
allow all employees to
access/visualize
these data..
If subsystem
integrations
(for data visualization
or UI extension) are
implemented with
legacy ABAP add-ons,
the dev/operation
costs get extremely
expensive ..
Once the system
becomes a black box,
it’s not easy to
continuously extend the
systems with flexibility ..

The most current way to call SAP business
logics from external systems
http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/esworkplace
Publishes SAP’s business logics as Web services
Various vendors (including Microsoft) can technically
connect in this way
SAP increased # of services to 2,800 with their
release of Enhancement Pack 3
Differences from their legacy BAPI/RFC
Industry standard Web services instead of SAP’s
proprietary 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
One of Microsoft’s
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,
Oracle)
A central hub between LOB and all Microsoft
products
Visual Studio, SQL Server Integration Services,
BizTalk Server etc
66
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=‘VISA’,
@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

(2) BAPI/RFC execution
e.g. : Exec RFC_CUSTOMER_GET

Customer can easily
set up “user-friendly” UIs

and deploy them onto
SharePoint
(Higher visualization and
utilization of SAP)
Customer can
minimize
dev/operation costs
with “no coding”
MS BI and
“developer-friendly”
.NET, instead of ABAP
Customer can easily
master/implement
MS technologies by
themselves (instead of
fully depending on
special technicians)
which helps continuous
and flexible system
extensions

technologies for years
