Raj,

Maybe some of my experiences will help you. We installed WD ABAP for travel expenses for various customers.

WD ABAP is new technology and available as of ECC6/ EHP2. If you activate WD ABAP, WD Java will be disabled for this application.

Currently WD ABAP is available for travel management, but further applications will follow. So you may specialize in that area as many customers love to adapt the new WD ABAP screens regarding additional functions, layout, data validation and many more.

And, yes, you can have WD ABAP as a standalone without any SAP EP Portal installation on top. Just configure the services in the Internet Connection Framework (SICF).

If you have an EHP2 system available, you can call SE80 / package PTRM_WEB_UI where you will find the travel screens. If you navigate around, you will discover the capabilities of this technology. Find more info also on service.sap.com/rkt - theres a nice content area specialized in WD ABAP

regards,

Michael

>WD ABAP is new technology and available as of ECC6/ EHP2.

That is incorrect. It is available as of ECC 6.0 - without the need for any Enhancement Packages. Actually Web Dynpro ABAP is available with any application based upon NetWeaver 7.0. Now it may be true that WDA was first used in the travel expense applications in ECC 6.02; but WDA itself was available before that.

>Currently WD ABAP is available for travel management, but further applications will follow.

Also totally incorrect. WDA is already used throughout ERP and the Business Suite. It is used for a whole lot more than just Travel Management.

Well you found your way to the WDA Forum on SDN, so you are well on your way to understanding. It is the Primary UI creation tool for the Business Suite. All new UIs (with the exception of those in CRM) in the business suite are built using Web Dynpro ABAP. I suggest that you check out hte Web Dynpro ABAP blogs and eLearning section on SDN to learn more. We have tons of material available.

Also you can learn a lot by reading the online help:

Think of NetWeaver AS as the operating system of the Business Suite. It is the technicaly layer that sits under all applications of the Business Suite. The ABAP language, the workbench, WDA, and many other technical capabilities are part of the NetWeaver AS. Any application based upon NetWeaver ABAP AS 7.0 and higher has the Web Dynpro ABAP technology.

Understanding ABAP as a language and development environement is absolutely critical to learning WDA.

If you want to do UI developement in the Business Suite on the latest versions, then yes it is highly recommended.

Hi Raj,

Webdynpro will display the SAP reports in Internet Browser.

In Module Pool for every component that you create like Button/text/Tabstirp...etc you need to write the code for it.

Using Webdynpro we do not have to write code for UI elements...We only have to worry about the

Business Logic.

Yes LEarning WEBDYNPRO is pretty good and Adobe forms is also another topic whcih will be used most.

I will provide you few links to go through the Web DYnpro Tutorials. You can get strong basic idea after going through this links.
