SAPB1 – XML (Magic xpi 3.x)

To configure the SAPB1 connector with an XML interface, follow these steps:

  1. From the Project menu, select Resources to open the Resource Repository. Here, you should define an SAPB1 resource. This allows you to create the required connections to SAP databases. For more information on how to do this, click here. You cannot continue with the next step until you have done this.

  2. Drag the SAPB1 connector to the Magic xpi's Trigger area. When you do this, the Component Properties dialog box opens.

  3. Click the Component Properties dialog box's Settings tab. In the Resource Name field, select one of the resources that you previously defined in the Resource Repository.

  4. Click the Component Properties dialog box's Settings tab. Select the XML interface and click Configuration.
    The SAPB1 Configuration dialog box opens. This is a preliminary dialog box that lets you select the object type that you want to use. It contains the following fields:

Property

Description

Connection

Resource Name

This read-only field displays the name of the SAPB1 resource or dynamic resource that you defined in the Resource Repository, and selected for this connector.

Keep Session Open

Select the check box to indicate whether you want the connection to the SAP Business One database to remain open after the operation is completed.

Operation

Operation

From the drop-down list, select the operation to be executed. The available operations are:

  • Query

  • Add

  • Update

  • Delete

  • Cancel

  • Close

Object Type

When you are using the XML interface, the following object types are enabled:

  • Data Object

  • User Table

Click to open the Data Object List or User Tables List. Select the SAP Business One data object on which to execute the operation.

New Object Key

This is available for the Add operation only. When you add a new object to SAP Business One, a new object key is created. With some objects, SAP Business One sets this key internally. This can be problematic if you want to query or update the new object, and you do not have its object key.

Click to select an Alpha variable that can hold the last object key added to SAP Business One.

Advanced Query Options

XML Export Type

Select one of the following from the drop-down list to enter the XML Export Type used in the transaction:

  • 0.AllNodes

  • 1.ValidNodesOnly

  • 2.NodesAsProperties

  • 3.ExportImportMode

The default is 3.ExportImportMode, which only supports read/write fields.

Note:

This option is available for the Query operation only. All other operations support the 3.ExportImportMode only.

Store Result In

Select, from the drop-down list, where you want to store the results:

  • File

  • Variable

Note:

This option is available for the Query operation only. All other operations support the 3.ExportImportMode only.

Query Status

Select one of the following from the drop-down list:

  • Empty XML

  • Variable

  • As Error

Note:

This option is available for the Query operation only. All other operations support the 3.ExportImportMode only.

Multi Operation Error Behavior

Error Behavior

If an error occurs during multiple operations, and you have defined an error flow to handle the error, the XML that was created is passed to that error flow. To determine what happens if an error occurs, select one of the following from the drop-down list:

  • Exit: Ends the multi operation process.

  • Continue: Continues to the next multi operation.

Note:

You can click Refresh XSD to refresh the current object's schema. This is available only when you select a data object.

During Add or Update operations in User Table systems, fields — such as Object, UserSign, Series, Period, Transfered, CreateDate, CreateTime and DataSource — that are maintained by the SAPB1 application are read-only (not updateable) by the user.

  1. Click OK to complete the process. If a schema does not exist, the required information is retrieved from the server and a schema is created. The configuration information is saved, and the Data Mapper window opens with the selected schema as the Destination. You should define the data required to complete the desired operation in SAPB1.

  2. Alternatively, you can click Cancel to exit the SAPB1 Configuration dialog box without saving your settings or modifications.
