Beginning in SAP with JAVA

Former Member

Hi All,

Like to do some programming in SAP with JAVA.

What would be the best way to go about it?

I now work in Servlets and JSP.

Prefer to continue with the same.

Meantime connecting to SAP and reading its tables have become a necessity.

Also planning to develop some data entry forms in Servlets.

The Purchase requisition and Reservation screens in SAP are very good indeed,

Still our users demand more functionality than it presently offers.

Can such forms be developed in Java and data posted to SAP through its validations?

Thanks

Hi Joseph,

It would be great if you could tell us from what SAP system you would like to read the data.

At the moment SAP provides two java platforms for On-Premise: SAP NetWeaver AS Java and SAP HANA XS Advanced.

SAP NetWeaver AS Java is a Java EE 5 certified server. A good starting point for developing applications for it is Developing Java EE 5 Applications - SAP Library

In the end of last year, with SPS 11 of SAP HANA, the XS Advanced architecture was introduced. It is based on Cloud Foundry and the microservice architecture. It provides several runtimes, including Apache Tomcat 8 and Aapche TomEE 1.7 which is a Java EE 6 Web Profile certified server. For more information see . Also a good starting point is the developer guide for XS Advanced that you could find at http://help.sap.com/hana/SAP_HANA_Developer_Guide_for_SAP_HANA_XS_Advanced_Model_en.pdf
