WebDynpro ABAP vs WebDynpro JAVA for Adobe forms--PCRs--MSS

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

This might be a generic question :

I am modifying PCRs (MSS 1.0,EP 7,ECC 6.0) and now I have come to a point where I need to decide if I have to use Webdynpro JAVA or Webdynpro ABAP for modifying Adobe interactive forms which come with MSS 1.0 out of the box from SAP.

What does SAP suggest??

What do you suggest??

Quick answers appreciated

Hi,

You can go ahead with JAVA WebDynpro forms..we are working no ECC 5.0, EP 6.0, and the forms seems to be working perfectly fine.

Hi Aditi,

Thanx for your suggestion but let me just detail what Iam looking for;

I will have to develop a custom PCR for Hire/Rehire (no workflow -- weird right),

now if I develop Adobe forms for this, my question is how am I going to bind these forms to the scenario (QISRSCENARIO).

Whatever is entered in this form is not going through workflow but is going to be directly updated in the database when the manager says SUBMIT.

Usually the HR developer goes to the scenario and selects input by Adobe form and clicks <b>generate</b>, but now if I develop the form using Webdynpro JAVA how am I going to integrate the generated form to that particular scenario.

Sorry if Iam not clear enough, but I really need help in this regard.

Thank you

Hi Sushil,

We are facing a similar situation where we have to decide which route to go - ABAP WD or Java WD. For obvious reasons we want to lean on ABAP WebDynpro because of the integration, performance and ease of native calls....but we are still not sure. Did you find out?

We are also on ECC 6.0 which supports both.

Thanks,

Hi Anand,

We are also leaning towards ABAP WD, but we are still not sure....

I need to have a look into the DCs to figure out.

Will let you know when the decision is taken.

In the meanwhile please let me know how you are proceeding and the reasoning behind it if you find any.

Thankx

Seems like ABAP WD is better, coz it is the more intuitive approach
