Django-SIFAC is a API to interact with the financial repository called SIFAC and deployed in many french universities. It is not really a django specific app for SIFAC but it’s easy to use with Django. For the moment, only data on cost centers, eotp, funds and functional domains are available for reading, but not for writing.
To install the saprfc library, please refer to this documentation. If you place the rcfsdk headers in the right place, you can run this command
pip install django-sifac
You need to add this lines to the settings file of your django project
ASHOST = '' # Hostname to connect (i.e sap.host.com)
SYSNR = '' # System number to connect to (i.e '00')
CLIENT = '' # Client number logged in (i.e '500')
USER = '' # Username
PASSWF = '' # Password
If you want to use the SAP models filter application, you must activate the administration interface in the settings file of your project and add the sifac application in your INSTALLED_APPS setting
INSTALLED_APPS = (
...,
django.contrib.admin,
...,
sifac
)
To create tables needed by the sifac application, syncing your database is necessary
$> python manage.py syncdb
If you’re using filters and pattern for your SAP Models (or not), it is really easy to use the library to retrieve filtered data. Filters and patterns for each SAP models can be created or updated in the admnistration interface
from sifac import service
sifac_service = SifacService()
cost_centers = sifac_service.get_filtered_cost_center_list()
