Hi shree,
As you are going for the new installation of Business Objects Enterprise XI R3 you can find all the prerequisites for the installation like the disk space and all other such requirement in the documents provided in the following link.
You can have the Business Objects documents from the following site.
- Please go to Http://help.sap.com
- Click on Business Objects tab
- Select the product as Business Objects Enterprise XI 3.0 and it will list all the document under the respective product.
You can find all the prerequisites in the Business Objects Enterprise admin guide. And if you need to have BO and SAP work together in conjunction you need to have the Business Objects Integration Kit for SAP. Integration Kit provides the database drivers and other features for reporting off SAP.

Integration kit for SAP Solutions
Hi gurus,
i've encountered a problem with BO XI 3.0 Integration for SAP Solutions.
I've installed in a virtual machine BO XI Edge series for NON-SAP solutions evaluation copy,when I try to run web InfoView everything working fine. The infoview path is http://<servername>:6405/InfoViewApp and it take itself the "logon.jsp" file.
Now my goal was connect BO and my BW server. I've downloaded BO Integration kit for SAP solutions 3.1 but installation locked for a WSDL (I have no idea what WSDL is) than i try with 3.0 version.
I've downloaded JCO jar and dll files (sapjco3-ntamd64-3.0.2) and putted them on the right (i think) path.
I've installed Integration kit and installation goes fine.
Now when i try to catch infoview page 404 not found Internet explorer page is show but CMS is on,intelligent agent too.
It can be a tomcat problem?
Can anyone help me?
thanks in advance!Guys you were good!!!every installation things was right!!
I've the last question about SAP Authentication: when I try to call the SAP auth page i retrieve the follow error:
HTTP Status 404 - /SAP/jsp/auth/sapsec_logsys.faces
type Status report
message /SAP/jsp/auth/sapsec_logsys.faces
description The requested resource (/SAP/jsp/auth/sapsec_logsys.faces) is not available.
Apache Tomcat/5.5.20
I think is a Jco jar error,it's right?
In the (awesome) ingo blog there is: "put sapjco.jar file into the path C:\program files\...\tomcat55\shared\lib\, but i have not shared folder, than before installation i putted sapjco.jar into C:\program files\...\tomcat55\server\lib\ folder..was wrong?
thanks a lot guys! -
BW toolbar add for BOBJ Integration for SAP..silent add
I have searched and searched but cannot find the command-line syntax for adding/enabling the BW toolbar in the BOBJ Integration for SAP installation. I need to do this to a few remote PC's. I know how to do this from the GUI..but would like to do it from a command line. Can someone please help?
Thank you!!
BusinessObjects XI Integration for SAP Solutions 12.1.0.890 SP2 Patch 2.9Due to the patch level you have the easiest way is to first uninstall all BO components and then install them again.
You can use the -w command line parameter of setup.exe in order to record an installation script
eg. setup.exe -w myInstallScript.ini) in which you choose the BW toolbar option
You can use then the recorded script to do the silent installation on the workstation you want
eg. setup.exe -r myInstallScript.ini.
Do not forget to copy the recorded script.
The -w and -r flags work for the BI XI 3.1 and CR 2008 installers (setup.exe) incl. Service Packs and Fix Packs.

2) I am getting authentication SAP while login to the CMS only But after login to CMS (with enterprise authentication) then by clicking authentication ,i didnt find SAP option .Why?Hi,

You have to transport some files on BW system. After that SAP tab will visible under the authentication tab.You can get the list of files under the Transport folder under the SAP Integration setup folder.
2)In CCM BW publisher server is in stop mode .Am I need to make it start?If yes then how?But BI server is running fine.
Right click on that and go to the properties and select the Startup Type as "Automatic" then click ok and start the server.

Crystal Reports access to SAP/CRM 6.0 with Integration with SAP Solutions
Hello,
we are running Crystal Reports 2008 with SAP CRM 6.0.
To boost productivity or Report writeing we need especially access to:
- Function Modules
- the CRM Business Objects Repository (Transaction SW01).
What kind of SAP/CRM ( or SAP / ERP ) Objects can be accessed with the Integration for
SAP Solutions ?
The BO Documentation [BusinessObjects XI Integration for SAP Solutions User's Guide|http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/boexir31SP2/en/xi31_sp2_bip_sap_user_en.pdf] does not give a clue if this is possible.
However, Ingo Hilgefort stated in his book that it is at least possible to access ABAP Functions, SAP Querries and SAP InfoSets.
What is the minimum product portfolio and the necessary Version - Can I install the following products stand alone ?
Crystal Reports 2008
Integration for SAP Solutions
Tomcat / Jaco
or
Must I need at minimum BO Edge and must install the CMS Server ?
Thank You

>> correct. It is also in the Installation Guide / User Guide for the SAP Integration kit. You can use ABAP Functions, ABAP / SAP Queries, InfoSets, Tables

BOE 3.1 SR3 on Solaris SPARC - how to for Int kit for SAP Solutions ?
Hi,
this is my first BOE installation and I've just installed the BOE SR3 Enterprise Server on Solaris SPARC with SAP WAS 7.0 and Oracle 11.2.0.2 providing the CMS database location and the Java application server for the BOE applications.
The installation went ok and all BOE Server services are running. I've now got to install the XI 3.1 SR3 BOBJ Integration for SAP Solutions kit and have read the installation and administration guide for this.
The pre-requisites state that the SAP RFC & Java Connector needs to be put in place before deploying. Are these not part of the NW 7 WAS 7.0 Java Server anyway ?
If anyone has any pointers to more detailed instructions for doing Integration for SAP solutions kit other than the guide then please let me know.
Regards,
Brian.Hello Ingo,
many thanks for your reply, although I'm still confused. My Business Objects 3.1 Enterprise Server runs on the same host as a NW 7 WAS and has it's applications deployed and running on the NW 7 WAS Java instance .According to OSS 549268 you should not use the standalone SAP JCO connector if your applications are running on a SAP WAS - it has it's own integrated SAP Java Connector
"SAP JCo is available for two different environments: there is the standalone version and the version integrated in the SAP J2EE Engine. These two JCo variants have a compatible API but are implemented differently, so you may not mix them together within one environment.
SAP JCo 2.1 is the standalone version and can be used in all Java applications not running in an SAP J2EE Engine environment.
So it seems I don't need to use the standalone Java connector ?
Regards,
Brian. -

Is there something you have to install, or is every integration with BW or ERP possible out of the box?
If not, are there licence costs?HI,

Business objects and start events required for CO11N and CO13 transactions
Hi,
We do production order <b>confirmation</b> and <b>cancellation</b> in CO11N and CO13 respectively. Can somebody please tell me the corresponsing business objects and the start events for them? This is a very urgent issue, I will surely rewad good points.
I guess we need to use AFVC_PM object and "finalconfirmation" event for the confirmation.
Please confirm this and kindly suggest the same for cancellation.
Thanks,
MaxHi Max,
You will have to use the object BUS2005 - which is for Production order.
If you do not have Required events in the BO, you will have to extend object to add those custom events e.g. Cancellation event.
In this case you wil have to use Status management technique for raising events if standad transaction is not raising them.
Hope following SAP Help link might help you to start off..

I have 2 questions:
Relating to accepting Terms and Conditions:
If I click <Try Now> for solution SAP Business Warehouse 7.4 SP5 incl. SAP Business Objects BI 4.1 SP2 on SAP HANA 1.0 SP7
and scroll down Terms and Conditions, the button <I Accept> remains disabled.
Other solutions like SAP HANA, developer edition 1.0 Rev 80 I can accept.
I have to mention, that so far I have no CAL account
Is it possible to choose another Amazon Instance Type - instead of the default one (r3.8xlarge with 244 GB RAM)?
I don't need 244 GB RAM on my BW on HANA server.
Thanks in advance.Hi Harald,
ad 1) I assume that this is caused by a browser bug. Which browser (IE8, FF31, Lynx, ...) are you using on which operating system (Windows 7, SUSE Linux, ...)? Have you tried another browser to narrow down the possible root causes?
ad 2) The 244Gb instance is not only hosting HANA but also the ABAP/BW portion. In order to have all the demo scenarios of the BW on HANA Trial working it is required that the HANA server has 244GB of memory available. With less than 244Gb the demo scenarios wouldn't work and then there would be users complaining ;-)

Issue in Application Module and Enterprise Integration for SAP applications
Hi,
When I enabled the Application Module and Enterprise Integration for SAP applications Version 2.60 Patch 2 I am getting error in defect entity and Application Module. Does any one face this issue? Please let me know the solution.
QC details: QC 11.0 with patch 7
I followed the steps given in ALM addin page to install the adapters
Attached Screen shots of the ErrorHi
If you are wanting to know how to configure ESSO to be used to logon to SAP applications then there is a guide in the helpfile of the admin console. Simply do a search for SAP.
In short ESSO-LM comes with a SAP helper object which needs to be selected on install. To enable the ESSO SAP helper to interact with SAP, the SAP server and the SAPGUI client need to be configured. The details for this are in the helpfile. If you have multiple SAP systems launched from the SAPGUI then this is the best method because it means ESSO can distinguish between the different SAP systems through matching screens
If you have only one SAP system and you do not want to configure the SAP server then you could use send keys and not use the SAP helper object at all.
Hope this helps -
