Support for .NET 3.5

Besides the well know assemblies ERPConnect.dll (for .NET 1.1) and ERPConnect20.dll (for .NET 2.0) there is a new assembly ERPConnect35.dll which is optimized for usage under .NET 3.5.

Performance improvement by caching

With the help of the property R3Connection.CacheMetadata (true/false) there might be a performance boost in some situations. When the same connection calls the same function module thousands of times and the cache is enabled the meta data will be reused and not requeried from SAP.

ERPConnect.net provides you with an easy SAP R/3 interface programming.

These are some of ERPConnect.net main features:

• RFC Server
  Besides the client function it is also possible to create RFC server functions. Of course transactional RFCs are also supported.
  
  
• Calling BAPIs and Function Modules
  Function modules are single functions that are managed by the SAP Function Builder (Transaction SE37) and developed in SAP's own programming language ABAP. The function module should have the attribute Remote Enabled to be called from outside the SAP system via the RFC protocoll. It's very easy to call these functions with the help of ERPConnect.net.
  
  
• Recieving And Sending Idocs
  Idocs are electonical documents that can be sent from or to SAP systems. It is possible to exchange Idocs between SAP system or between one SAP system and an external application. ERPConnect.net provides a set of classes to send, recieve and construct Idocs very easily
  
  
• Special Classes
  Besides standard classes for RFC server and client functions there a several special classes included in the ERPConnect.net toolkit. These special classes encapsulate recurrent taks and are all located in the namespace ERPConnect.Utils:
  • ReadTable - reads data rows directly from tables located in the SAP database
  • ABAPCode - makes it possible to create and execute ABAP code dynamically. The result is passed back to your .NET application and can be analyzed
  • Transaction (Batch Input) - with the Transaction classes you can control SAP transaction in the SAP GUI. It is possible to do this in visible or background mode

Support

Every license includes 6 months update subscription and support.
