DataBind SAP Business One Data to the DevExpress Data Grid


Use the CData ADO.NET Provider for SAP Business One with the DevExpress Windows Forms and Web controls to provide SAP Business One data to a chart.

The ADO.NET Provider for SAP Business One by CData incorporates conventional ADO.NET data access components compatible with third-party controls. You can adhere to the standard ADO.NET data binding procedures to establish two-way access to real-time data through UI controls. This article will demonstrate the utilization of CData components for data binding with DevExpress UI Controls (Windows Forms and Web controls), specifically binding to a chart that visualizes live data.

To authenticate to SAP Business One you must provide the Userand Passwordproperties.

To connect to data, specify Url. This is your SAP Business One Service Layer root URL.

Windows Forms Controls

The code below shows how to populate a DevExpress chart with SAP Business One data. The SAPBusinessOneDataAdapter binds to the Series property of the chart control. The Diagram property of the control defines the x- and y-axes as the column names.

using (SAPBusinessOneConnection connection = new SAPBusinessOneConnection( "Url=http://localhost:50000/b1s/v1;User=username;Password=password;CompanyDB=dbname;InitiateOAuth=GETANDREFRESH")) { SAPBusinessOneDataAdapter dataAdapter = new SAPBusinessOneDataAdapter( "SELECT DocEntry, DocType FROM Orders", connection); DataTable table = new DataTable(); dataAdapter.Fill(table); DevExpress.XtraCharts.Series series = new DevExpress.XtraCharts.Series(); chartControl1.Series.Add(series); series.DataSource = table; series.ValueDataMembers.AddRange(new string[] { "DocType" }); series.ArgumentScaleType = DevExpress.XtraCharts.ScaleType.Qualitative; series.ArgumentDataMember = "DocEntry"; series.ValueScaleType = DevExpress.XtraCharts.ScaleType.Numerical; chartControl1.Legend.Visibility = DevExpress.Utils.DefaultBoolean.False; ((DevExpress.XtraCharts.SideBySideBarSeriesView)series.View).ColorEach = true; }

Web Controls

The code below shows how to populate a DevExpress Web control with SAP Business One data. The SAPBusinessOneDataAdapter binds to the Series property of the chart; the Diagram property defines the x- and y-axes as the column names.

using DevExpress.XtraCharts; using (SAPBusinessOneConnection connection = new SAPBusinessOneConnection( "Url=http://localhost:50000/b1s/v1;User=username;Password=password;CompanyDB=dbname;InitiateOAuth=GETANDREFRESH")) { SAPBusinessOneDataAdapter SAPBusinessOneDataAdapter1 = new SAPBusinessOneDataAdapter("SELECT DocEntry, DocType FROM Orders", connection); DataTable table = new DataTable(); SAPBusinessOneDataAdapter1.Fill(table); DevExpress.XtraCharts.Series series = new Series("Series1", ViewType.Bar); WebChartControl1.Series.Add(series); series.DataSource = table; series.ValueDataMembers.AddRange(new string[] { "DocType" }); series.ArgumentScaleType = ScaleType.Qualitative; series.ArgumentDataMember = "DocEntry"; series.ValueScaleType = ScaleType.Numerical; ((DevExpress.XtraCharts.SideBySideBarSeriesView)series.View).ColorEach = true; }
