Development Task Flow

Define the back-end interface in the SAP Business Suite, define data models and distribution logic in the DOE, develop mobile components in Unwired Platform and in a platform-specific IDE, and deploy the application on Unwired Platform.

1. Creating and Encapsulating BAPIs
   Use the BAPI Wrapper wizard to identify or write BAPI wrappers that make SAP data available to your application.
2. Creating a Software Component Version
   The Software Component Version (SWCV) is a shipment unit for design-time objects in the Data Orchestration Engine (DOE) repository. You must create SWCVs before you can create data objects.
3. Modeling Data Objects
   You must model data objects to make the required application data available to DOE for consolidation and distribution.
4. Modeling Distribution Logic
   Perform distribution logic modeling tasks, which require system administrator expertise, in the back-end SAP system.
5. Creating, Generating, and Downloading the ESDMA Bundle
   The ESDMA bundle contains SAP metadata in a form you can import into the Sybase Unwired Platform environment on your developer workstation.
6. Converting the ESDMA Bundle into an Unwired Platform Package
   Use the ESDMA Converter utility to convert an ESDMA bundle into an Unwired Platform package you can deploy to Unwired Server.
7. Deploying the Unwired Platform Package
   Deploy the Unwired Platform package to Unwired Server before you begin coding your application. You will then be ready to test your code.
8. Developing Platform-Specific Device Code
   To complete a DOE-based application, you must generate initial code, manually add code, test and debug the code, and deploy the finished application. These tasks are covered in platform-specific developer guides.
