You are absolutely correct. You cannot use anything other than DI to perform data manipulation.Because if you violate this, the warranty is void and SAP would stop any kind of support it.Coming to your point of using EF in your project, I will issue a simple warning to you just because a basic operation also results in updating many tables. In simple words, a lot of data manipulation happens. So in case you still stick to using EF, then you will need to take care of doing that on your own.

As you mentioned, you are integrating the web service in .NET, it’s going to be piece of cake. As Visual studio does most of the configuration part of you with a simple click.Open your project, Click on Add Service Reference. Then specify the WSDL file shared by your client. Click OK.This will create a proxy client for your project using the WSDL file, with all the web methods exposed by the web service. Just instantiate the proxy client and then you can go ahead and call them. Visual studio intellisense (auto -suggest) will help you with the exact definition of ... Read More

You are trying to use the user-specific setting in your queries, but ABAP does not support it. You need to use ‘.’ as the decimal separator instead of ‘,’.So the query would look something like −SELECT * FROM INTO WHERE amount = 10.15

I tried to use the same function as mentioned; I am too getting the exception.What I can make out of the dump thrown by the exception, only character type data objects are compatible with the function.You can try using another function module ‘CRM_EI_KB_CONV_DEC_TO_HEX’  which is available in ECC 6.0 environment.It will convert a decimal to hex and can be used. Hope it helps.

I think for your implementation, you can declare an internal table in a dynamic manner.DATA:  tbl_TEST TYPE REF TO DATA. FIELD-SYMBOLS: < tbl_TEST > TYPE STANDARD TABLE CREATE DATA tbl_TEST TYPE (Received_Type) ASSIGN tbl_TEST TYPE ->* to < tbl_TEST TYPE >

Yes, there is a log function. You can use it to implement your requirement.Here is a code snippet which might be of some help for your implementation.DATA:  NUMBER  TYPE INT,        BASE TYPE INT,        RESULT  TYPE FLOATLet’s say:Number=16 BASE=4 RESULT= log(NUMBER)/log(BASE)RESULT will be 2.

The answer is No. Workbench is not present in business one. The reason being the core of business one is not based on ABAP or NetWeaver.Business one relies heavily on SQL. It has a SQL database and you can write queries for fetching data. These data are then used for creating reports.But When you analyze business one with ABAP, the extension capabilities are very little in business one as available in ABAP.But you have other options for achieving the same; you can integrate with either JAVA or .NET using their connectors for writing your custom requirements.

I think the question is very basic and if you would have explored a little bit, you would have found out the way.Just go and open transaction SE38, specify the include name and press create.Otherwise, you can open transaction SE80, select a packet and then the object name. That’s it.

First, let me make your core basics clear.When you are referring to SAP ECC, you are referring to SAP ERP Central Component which is more or less equivalent to the prior SAP R3 System.  ABAP does not play any much part over here.But ABAP resides in the kernel of SAP which is referred to SAP BASIS.Speaking about your pointers for referenceHorst Keller - ABAP objects (For ABAP)Help.SAP.com  - (overall SAP)SAP ECC 6.0 Black book Then there are blogs, Q&A, and other online help always available.

The answer lies within the exception message itself. The connection string that you are using to connect to the Business object server is wrongly configured. Check for each parameter, you will find something must be wrong and hence why you are receiving this error message.
