Step-by-step implementation guides for COBI.wms

The steps you need to follow for implementing COBI.wms depend on the type of your SAP Business One installation. Follow the steps under the section that describes your environment.

On-premises or private cloud, MS SQL Server, SBO 9.3 or earlier

If you have an on-premises or private cloud installation of SAP Business One Version 9.3 or older, based on Microsoft SQL Server then please refer to the following steps. Note that the Integration Framework must be installed already.

    1. Afterwards, copy the Trigger URL as described in the linked page and temporarily save it somewhere
  1. Follow all the steps of the following section (on-prem with Service Layer), with the following differences:
    1. Use the Trigger URL for the APIURL field of the SAP Business One company connection added to the Management Database
    2. Make sure that TCP Port 8080 for Integration Framework is opened on the server

On-premises or private cloud, with Service Layer

If you have an on-premises or private cloud installation of SAP Business One with Service Layer available (which means it is either based on SAP HANA, or the version of SAP Business One is 10.0 or newer) then follow these steps:

    1. Create the database itself by copy-pasting the correct creation script into SQL Server Management Studio or HANA Studio
    2. Import licenses by using the appropriate INSERT statement from the Management Database documentation
    3. Add SAP Business One connections by using the appropriate INSERT statement from the Management Database documentation
  1. (For HANA: Install and start the HANA Proxy)
  2. Install COBI.wms from the Google Play Store on an Android device that can access the SAP Business One server
  3. Make sure that the TCP ports for direct DB queries and Service Layer are not blocked
    1. MS SQL Server: 1433
    2. HANA Proxy: 30075
    3. Service Layer: 50000 (https) or 50001 (http)
  4. (optional) Use cobiwms-config.html to generate a Settings QR Code
  5. Open COBI.wms on the Android device and scan the Settings QR Code (or enter the settings manually)
  6. Click Connect and take note of the device ID on the right side of the screen below the Login button
  7. Assign a license to that device ID (see Management Database documentation again)
  8. Log in to COBI.wms with an empty username/password and make a test booking
  9. (optional) Create COBI.wms users in the Management Database
  10. (optional) Disable all modules for all devices and enable them for users instead to force user login

Public cloud

If you are using SAP Business One from a public cloud (SAP-hosted or partner-hosted) then your provider must make Service Layer available and setting up the app is very easy. Just use cobiwms-config.html to generate a Settings QR Code for a Cloud connection.

All types of installation

There are some steps you might need to take which are independent of the SAP Business One installation:
