Hello all,
I'm interested in venturing into PHP development for SAP. I have some experience on PHP development and at the moment I'm in a SAP NW Portal Consultant. Some questions:
1) Is there a way for me to personally create my own development environment to learn this? Is there a SAP Mini-Server 6.40? From what I've read, you can install this on a desktop PC (at least the 6.20)
2) Is there a way to properly simulate a SAP-PHP development environment? Say I want to integrate with ECC HR or Finance?
Thank you all.
Regards,

Thanks guys.
Pardon for my limited knowledge, but with the ABAP Trial version will I be able to develop test applications to say for example simulate on communicating with an HR module? Or does the ABAP Trial version provide some transactions that I can test - that hopefully mimic SAP module functionalities?
Are there already available tutorial blogs on this aspect? Hopefully, after fully understanding this on my own I can post my own beginner's blog on PHP scripting with SAP.

Hi Jan,
haven't you read the content of Blag's Link to the Wiki? There you find a comprehensive link list of related Blogs.
With the ABAP Trial Version you have a Basis System that come i.e. with the SFLIGHT example. There you have RFC Enabled Function Modules like BAPI_SFLIGHT_GETLIST which you can call from PHP.
Best regards

Ah yes! There you go. Thanks Gregor.
Will privately study this and see if I can make good out of this.
