SAP transaction enabled by speech recognition

[prabhu_s2]

hi

i'm looking into possible ways of approaching to an requirement that would enable users to perform transactions in the SAP GUI by giving commands (may be via voice recognition). I tried to check for materials that could help me to start with but unable to trace one. If this problem statemetn can be disucced i could get some ideas on how to proceed. so looking fwd for ur resposne.

hi xperts

i got this blog which gives a hint of the applications to be used to developing this scenario

/people/clement.selvaraj/blog/2006/12/04/voice-enabling-a-net-smart-client-application

But i have a question here:

1. How my SAP R3 appliation is linked to smart client application?

2. Should i expose my R3 application as a web application using BSP?

3. How the fields in my R3 application are validated as per the user comand?

kindly give ur suggenstions on this

Hi Prabhu,

As far as I understand there are two parts of it-

1. Invoke/trigger SAP applications from .NET.

2. Having an event to trap and trigger the execution.

Now first point (1) can be acheived through either SOAP (webservices) or RFC (.NET Connector) based communication. With this you will be able to invoke RFC/BAPI from .NET applications.

Regarding (2) you need to use SAPI liabrary (provided by Microsoft) to recognise the speech phrases and raise the event. And inside the even handler you can trigger the execution of SAP application.

Regards.
