Develop Stock Overview(MMBE) application in UI5 using eclipse

[Former Member]

Hi Guys,

I am developing an UI5 application in eclipse without using gateway through ICF using REST/JSON service.

I want to call sap transaction MMBE and display stock overview details for materials.

Can anyone tell me the steps and code how to develop it.

Any appropriate blog or help will be highly appreciated.

Ajay

Hello Ajaya,

We cant call SAP transactions directly from UI5 Applications. You can use the respective BAPI to fetch the data and send it through ODATA for consumption in your UI5 application.

Hi Amit,

Thanks for your response.

We don't have ODATA server installed in our sap system. That's why i have developed classes and used ICF to connect to UI5 application developed in eclipse.

But, now i have to develop an application in eclipse where i can show stock overview(MMBE) details.

Please provide some help to resolve this issue.

Regards,
Ajay

If you don't have necessary components in your system for OData development why not just develop a WD ABAP app to display the required stock overview details? As already mentioned SAPUI5 is not built for directly invoking SAP GUI transactions and can't interact with transactions without the presence of OData services.

If you are unable to generate a ODATA api , you are on the right track. UI5 is not just for ODATA, you can use a simple JSON model.

I did some quick search for "UI5 JSON MODEL" and came across couple of links, here is one of them

Hi Ajay,

UI5 is is not designed to work by directly invoking a transaction. It's like driving a Ferrari on a bumpy road it's not designed for that.

use pData or any other rest service to provide the data for your application.
