I've done some client projects and because of limitation of not able to use javascript we could not fulfill simple client requirements. In WDJ the model is still ABAP RFC calls and so if there is need to change something important, you need ABAPERS. They have complicated things so much by including both Enterprise scale language Java and ABAP that as a developer I get frustrated to do what and where ! UI in Java and model in ABAP. Sucks big time :( Both sucks including SAP itself. I’ve done some client projects and because of limitation of not able to use javascript we could not fulfill simple client requirements.

I thought ECC is the Enterprise Central Component and is the technology layer and Netweaver is the Enterprise software layer enabling browser access only (EP) for end users. Netweaver contains products like Enterprise Portals, MDM, BI, etc. Is ECC 5.0/6.0 different than Netweaver?

Creating a redirection iview on the main portal which when loaded will redirect to the BI Portal and keep the SSO certificate to avoid user logging on again. It works very well, but we still have to maintain 2 portals using that approach.... There are other ways to sidestep this issue….

And the user reporting tools are almost best. Go with Cognos - bet is - you win if Cognos remains a pure play independent vendor. Sorry if gets acquired by likes of HP.

What people talked too at teched was how if you speak to someone from Palo Alto labs, they say use WDJ and people from Germany say use WDA. SAP should have given better guidelines. Well put.

Based in Espoo, Finland, Wicom offers an all-IP contact center and enterprise communications software. Wicom is used by 200 contact centers and by what SAP said are "contact-intensive multi-sited enterprises" in 18 countries. The idea is to connect functions such as customer service, marketing, finance and sales; and making sure that all customer-facing employees wherever they are located have access to the same relevant knowledge and data.
