Web Transaction Programming Tools

Use

To support the implementation of Web transactions, the Internet Transaction Server (ITS) provides the following tools:

  • Web Application Builder for ITS Services

  • HTMLBusiness

  • ABAP Debugger

Web Application Builder for ITS Services

The Web Application Builder for ITS Services is integrated in the ABAP Workbench and allows you to create and maintaine the components required by the ITS to run a Web transaction. These components include:

  • Service description

  • HTML templates

  • Language resources.

HTMLBusiness

HTML templates in Web transactions correspond to screens in SAP transactions. These templates contain both standard HTML code and HTMLBusiness code.

HTMLBusiness is an SAP's own extension of standard HTML for handling data transfer between SAP system screens and HTML templates. It allows you to merge the data dynamically from an SAP system screen with fields in the corresponding HTML template.

ABAP Debugger

The ABAP debugger is a tool for analyzing errors in Web transactions. It allows you to establish a parallel connection between a Web transaction and a normal SAP GUI. This means that you can display the Web transaction and the SAP GUI with the ABAP debugger simultaneously. You can thus activate the ABAP debugger in the SAP GUI and use it to analyze the current Web transaction.
