IBP for Finance - BPF Task - URL to access ERP data through External Resource!

[Former Member]

Dear All,

In IBPF, I understand that the master data at the ERP(on S/4 HANA) side can be accessed thru' HTTP URL. This can be created as a BPF task at BPC end(as an External Resource task).

Normally, we access the ERP data thru SAP GUI, outside BPC.

Within IBPF, What is this URL about? Does that mean that, at ERP side(S/4 HANA), web server component has to be installed? And, access to master data needs to be exposed thru' URL/HTTP? Of course, authentication/authorization has to be managed at ERP side. Can some one pls. elaborate on the ERP data access thru' URL part?

Thank you,

Peri

Hi Peri,

You can maintain the master data using NWBC (Net weaver web client) it is in HTML5 format.You can access it through GUI as well NWBC is Tcode for it.You might have to activate some settings in SICF. Below link has more details about what is NWBC.

In IBPF we have lot of standard roles delivered by SAP ,we need to have those roles to maintain data.
