You've got the usual dilemma regarding which of the 2 front tiers need to be implemented where - the SAPGui for HTML means you can leave everything to SAP which has its advantages e.g. consistent business logic...( you could also use ITS over custom dynpros built in ABAP - but that's probably heading away from the market trend )... the next two options require a re-rendering of the presentation layer - the advantage of BSP would be the richness of the result, the advantage of the WebDynpro would be the potential for having the output rendered in other SAP-supported GUIs in the future e.g. Flex. There may also be options around Citrix too - SAP training course here are presented this way via a browser-based solution.</P><P></P><P>Jonathan</P></BODY></HTML> Thu, 12 Jun 2008 12:24:52 GMT https://community.sap.com/t5/application-development-and-automation-discussions/show-dynpro-from-external-application/m-p/4038602#M965281 Former Member 2008-06-12T12:24:52Z
