What's ITSmobile

ITSmobile is a SAP technology to connect mobile devices to a SAP system in order to run applications based on the widely used Dynpro programming model.ITSmobile replaces the Web SAPConsole which will be phased out with SAP Netweaver 7.01. It is available for SAP systems based on SAP Netweaver 7.10, SAP Netweaver 7.0 and SAP Netweaver 2004. ITSmobile is an integrated part of SAP Netweaver and based on ITS.

Generate and Modify Templates

Do you want to run a dynpro-based application on a mobile device? And even make manual adjustments to fulfill your own special requirements? No problem - using the ITSmobile it only takes you three steps: You first need to create an internet service by generating the relevant templates. This whole procedure takes place in transaction SE80 where different ITSMobile generation styles are offered. The recommendation is to use STYLE: MOBILE4.Review the following page which explains the three ITS Services required to use the different ITSMobile generation styles: Getting to know ITSmobile by Checking out the Internet Services. Once you have successfully completed the generating, you only need to create an ICF service in the second step by using transaction SICF. The ICF service will link your Internet service with an HTTP access path. Now you can display your Internet Service in a browser - on a desktop PC or on a mobile device. If more functionality is required e.g. F-Keys or you don't like the standard design, take the third step. Make manual adjustments to the templates in the transaction SE80, or include a new CSS file with your own design. You can look a sample video in KBA 2242078.

Important

If you make any subsequent changes in SE80 or have applied ITSMobile related notes via SNOTE it is important that one re-generates the ITSMobile templates.

Republish the different ITSMobile generation services in SE80 (or run report SIAC_PUBLISH_ALL_INT in SE38 which will publish all ITS based services) and then run the report: SIAC_REGENERATE_TEMPLATES in se38. This will regenerate the ITSMobile templates

Features

Barcode Scanning

ITSmobile supports data input via 1D and 2D barcode scanning.

Voice Enabling (pick by voice)

ITSmobile supports voice enabling of ABAP/Dynpro based screens using the "Speech" property to send additional, speech related data, to the frontend/browser. Together with the new ITS XV Template generator, which generates XHTML+Voice based templates, it is possible to add speech in/output to your application. Voice enabled browsers, like Opera, will do the rest of the job.

RFID (Radio-frequency identification)

ITSmobile supports ABAP Property RFID which helps you to execute RFID operations on dynpro based screens using ITSmobile. The RFID property sends additional, RFID related data to the frontend. ITSmobile will deliver this data via javascript to your own device specific implementation for your specific RFID reader.
