Any open source BSP for downloading?

[Former Member]

Hi all,

I am looking for a complete BSP application that would allow customers to inquire on their sales orders online. I cannot find any web site that offers a repository of free BSP applications for download that I can search. Is there such a thing?

I imagine that a BSP online order inquiry is such a common thing that I should be able to find it anywhere.

Can anyone help? Or am I reduced to writing one from scratch anyway?

We are running ECC 5.0, WebAS 6.40.

Thanks!

Hi Nelson Santos,

I think there is no downloadable bsp application in the internet.

But, there is an online BookShop tutorial in help.sap.com

Here is the link...

All you need is to just follow what is provided in the document.

If you have knowledge on ABAP it's a plus.

I think you can finish the tutorial with in 2 or 3 hours provided you have all the neccessary setups for creating a bsp application.

Hope it helps.

Hi Maheswaran.B,

Thanks for the reply. I was actually aware of that tutorial, and it would be the first thing I will look at if I am assigned the task of writing an online order inquiry BSP app.

I take it you went through this tutorial? How was the experience for you? Were you able to pick up BSP pretty easily with it?

I have some beginner's knowledge of ABAP, so it's just the HTML aspect of BSP and how it interacts with ABAP that I need to learn.

Thanks!

Hi Nelson,

In order to create better UI Elements html is not sufficient. You need to use htmlb, phtmlb, xhtmlb, etc..,

for great Look & Feel.

For Starters....Go through the below link...

<b>HTMLB</b>

I would be a little suprised if you found an entire open source BSP Business Application. I can't imagine too many companies who are willing to give away the intellectual rights to their own custom development. At my previous employeer I was allowed to post freely lost of technology examples, although I was never allowed to post any complete business applications - for just this reason.

Thomas,

I see where you are coming from.

I was thinking that an online order inquiry program would be so generic that it wouldn't be damaging to anyone to share their code.

I did find a website that allows users to post their ABAP source code (http://sap.ittoolbox.com/), but I have yet to find any BSP source code anywhere.

Maybe you're right, though. I'll spend a little more time looking, and then I'll probably end up writing one.

Thanks!
