How to read EC data from ECC via RFC or WebService or ...?

[Former Member]

Dear Master,

I am working a custom standalone development in ECC where I need read data such as facilities, material and exception from EC (Environmental Compliance) , EC provides lot of RFC, Webservice, and Query etc. Not sure, how can I use them in my ABAP coding? for example, if I try to read material list for user to select from EC, how can I call the RFC or Webservice? how to fill the importing/exporting parameter? any docs for reference.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Yonglian,

I am not sure ABAP coding will help you ,However, As per your question.The Answer is try XML transfer tool  help you import and export data

The XML transfer tool enables the user to import or export data using XML files. There are two types of file: the data file that holds the data, and the definition file that describes the structure of data and the tables for the import and export in detail. The XML transfer therefore allows you to import/export both complete database tables and precisely defined parts of a database.

You can use the XMLTransfer Workbench view to import and export data using freely defined definition files. The user can define the data that is to be imported and exported in the definition file.

SAP Note 1427501 gives some additional information about the database model and about the  XML Transfer Workbench Tool of SAP Environmental Compliance 3.0

Two Attached Zip file available in this note.

1) EC30_XML_TransferTool.Zip document contain example for XML Definition File (Material Export) . These example described how to exports all materials with an ID greater than 1,000,000 (customer range) with their corresponding material texts.

2) DataModel_EC30_without_sys_SP13_PL3.vsd described entire database structure with table mane .As a Abap consultant this is more helpful for further development.

Thanks Edwards for your helpful information. But what I want is to get info from EC via RFC or webservice call in ABAP coding, then represent in my application as dropdown list or table list for user select, I know there are many webservice or RFC available in EC, but just can't get real helpful doc ...

Dear Yonglian

EC is not discussed often here. There are online two online helps available

Check: http://help.sap.com/ec30#section5

Here you will find some "high level" refernce of use of RFC. Some high level help regarding web services is shonw there as well-

Anything else you might be able to find in SAP marketplace.

Hi Shen,

yes, you are correct. The SAP EC integration manager connect the application to read the data from the through ERP system via Remote Function Call (RFC) call.

I understand, you are looking for technical related information for RFC on  EC. Have you checked in market place?

I found some small information PM integration

This business function described the display and process SAP EC data in the SAP PM component from EAM.
