Hi,

My client requires to track his Van which contains material which is on the wayto delivery.

Can any body explain How SAP Global positioning system works?

Any idea SAP has any other tools to track or trace the Supply van's.

Highly critical..

Hi ,

Please find the details below:

GIS Integration


Use
This function enables you to use the geographical information system (GIS) interfaces, which were provided with the Defense Forces & Public Security component, to exchange data between ERP systems and external GIS. For example, you can transfer force element data about stationing or support relationships from an ERP system to a GIS, where you can display it on a map.

Integration


You can call the interfaces from external GIS (non-SAP systems) directly, provided that they are RFC-enabled. Alternatively, you can use standard GIS integration functions in SAP systems.

Prerequisites


You are using an RFC-enabled GIS.

You are familiar with using RFC-enabled function modules to connect external systems.

Features


The following RFC-enabled function modules are available for communication and synchronization between ERP systems and GIS:

· Provide initial data for GIS

With function module /ISDFPS/GIS_INITIALIZATION, a GIS can be provided with data from an ERP system about a higher-level force element and all of its lower-level force elements (key values and relationships, and if required also infotypes 1000, 1950, and 1952).

· GIS – create relationship

You can create new or change existing support relationships using function module /ISDFPS/GIS_MAINT_MNT (for supply relationships) and function module /ISDFPS/GIS_MAINT_SUP (for maintenance relationships).

· Maintain force element details

You can update force element data (infotypes 1000, 1950, 1951, and 1952) from GIS using function module /ISDFPS/GIS_MAINT_DETAIL.

· Load structure information and Read GIS relationship

You can transfer structure information from an ERP system to a GIS using function module /ISDFPS/GIS_GET_STRUCTURE (evaluation path used) or, alternatively, function module /ISDFPS/GIS_GET_RELAT (relationship type and direction used).

· Read force element details

You can transfer detailed information about the force element (infotypes 1000, 1950, 1951, and 1952) from an ERP system to a GIS using function module /ISDFPS/GIS_GET_DETAIL.

Activities

Use these function modules to connect the GIS you use to an ERP system, and to set up the data transfer.

Thanks
