SRM 7.0 business object / individual procurement document direct URL access

Hello,
While our Basis team is configuring the Portal integration with our newly upgraded SRM 7.0 system, I am wondering if it's possible to take a sneak peak at the business object on the WebDynpro screen, for example, via SICF webdynpro service, such as
/default_host/sap/bc/webdynpro/sapsrm/wdcc_v_rfq_puchaser
After activating all relevant services (as far as I understand), I tried to access the following URL directly on the browser:
https://<server;domain>:<port>/sap/bc/webdynpro/sapsrm/wdcc_v_rfq_purchaser?sap-client=010&sap-language=EN?
I encountered the "Access via 'NULL' object reference not possible" exception on the web page. I think it's due to the missing object type and object id reference on the HTTP parameters. But what are the parameter name(s) that are required on the URL? Does anybody have the experience in accessing an individual document through direct URL?
Thanks,

This question has been answered by the following blog:

Difference between Business Objects Explorer and Polestar

Hi all,
can anyone help me out with the main differences between Business Objects Explorer and Polestar.
thanks & regards
immanuel.

Explorer is the new product name for Polestar. There have been a few versions of Explorer released since it was called Polestar, but you can find the latest 'whats new' doc here which lists the latest additions:
http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/boexplXI32/en/exp32_whats-new_en.pdf
For one, Explorer now comes in two editions... Standard and Accelerated. The Explorer Standard edition allows reporting off of Universes, just as the original Polestar product did. Explorer Accelerated allows reporting off of SAP BWA indexes as well as Business Objects universes. Both versions now allow uploading of excel files to report off of. You can export an Information Space to a Webi doc or Excel file. Users can now save favorite links to an Information Space. Sorting has been improved as well as graphing functions and overall display. You'll have to install the latest build of Explorer - "Explorer 3.2 SP1" and compare. I don't know of a document or matrix that compares Polestar to Explorer. The two are basically the same product with a number of enhancements added to the Explorer line.

Create URL to specific Business Object for a CRM using Portal integration

Hello CRM Community,
we're using the CRM Portal integration. To update our business users with tasks we use the standard functionality to send Alerts using the function module SALRT_CREATE_API. It allows to specify a URL that is added to the E-Mail created in the alert using the Table parameter IT_ACTIVITIES. This URL should be filled with a direct link to the business object that must be changed. For the stand-alone CRM there is the static Method CREATE_URL of the class CL_CRM_WEB_UTILITY to build such an URL. But I was not able to find a similar class/method/function module when the CRM is used integrated in the portal. Has anyone a simmilar requirement and was able to solve it?
Best regards
Gregor

Business Objects Explorer XI R3.1 SP1 (Polestar) installer does not start

I am trying to install Business Objects Explorer XI R3.1 SP1 on Business Objects Edge Professional 3.1 on Win2k8 Server, but the installer dialog box disappears once I click "next" on "Configure Web Application Server" dialog box.
Note: When I use "disappear" above, I mean the "setup.exe" disappears from task manager. Also, the installation dialog box disappears from the screen.
I followed the same steps on Business Objects Edge Standard 3.1 and everything ran fine. I also tried to reproduce the issue on Business Objects Enterprise Premium, but it ran fine. All these installations were done on 64 bit win2k8 server.
Any help or tip on this issue would be highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Gaurav

Hi there,
I extracted the files to a different drive and ran the installer from there. It eventually ran fine. I still don't know why it couldn't run from the same drive.
I tried running it from the command line as well, but it failed from there. I raised it to SAP as well which they haven't yet responded to.
Thanks,
Gaurav

Business Objects Explorer(polestar) Bookmark tool Issue.

Hi All,
We have installed business objects explorer recently. We are currently running on BOE 3.1. We have published an explorer view to our users and we have an issue with it. The users add or change analytics to the view and try to bookmark them. But the bookmarks always takes them to the base page.
Wanted to know whether this is a known issue or a service pack or a fix pack issue. Also is there a workaround for this problem.
Thanks,
Karthik

Hello Karthik,
You may want to try the Business Objects Administration forum.

How to transfer data between spreadsheets without using Business Objects?

Hello, every time I try and log onto the business objects platform I keep getting "this system can be contacted but there is no central management server running at port 6400". All I need to do is pass variables between spreadsheets. Both files are located in the same folder. Below are the links ive tried but have been unsuccessful to pass data.
(This link I used the swf loader component child and flash variables task Daya posted on Feb 15. However nothing loaded. The link wasnt a link i could display is in a browser. So i kept getting 0% when in preview mode.
Passing values from dashboard to dashboard with Flash Variables
Next I tried the following link. I did everything word for word and was able to display both files on the html page, but no link or connection between them existed. I would select a state and noting happened to the other swf files chart. Does this need to be in the Business Objects platform?
Dashboards 4.0: Connect to an external
Lastly , I used the link below. I followed everything and was able to get interaction from the parent to child however with only the files that were available on this thread. Their URL was this http://myxcelsius.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/child.swf?salesman=Schrute,Dwight. I get the concatenation but I dont get how this URL was generated? How do I develop my URL? My URL is able to display in a browser. My URL is
http://kln-ftvp/KLNPheonix//LinkToReport.htm?fqn=MyEnterprise.Public.graphtest&run=true
SWF Loader shows 100% instead of Dashboard.
Even with my URL being able to display in internet explorer, I still only show 100% and a blank screen. Can anyone help me with any of the issues I am having trouble with? Your help is most appreciated. Thank you.

It looks like you have more than one problems so it might be good to separate them out.
Issue 1 - Logging on to BusinessObjects
You say that when you try log on to the BO Platform you get the error message there is no central management server running on port 6400. I'm assuming you are trying to do this from the Dashboard designer.
Does it work when you try to log on from the web browser?
Make sure that you enter the correct system name in the system field when trying to log on from Designer. If you are unsure, either check what system name is used when you log on from your browser or check with your BO administrator.
Issue 2 - Passing values to a child dashboard
If you try to preview the dashboard in the designer, remember that the swf loader doesn't work in preview mode, so whatever you are trying to display won't be visible.
First of all you need to have 2 separate flash files that works independently of each other. The one that you are planning to use as a child flash, make sure that you create the flash variables so you can pass variables to it and use them to filter your data if that is your requirement. But hold off on that for now.
When you have 2 working flash files, save them both to the BI Launch Pad (or InfoView if you are on 3.1) and make sure they both work there. Then get the opendocument url for the child dashboard and try to open it in your browser directly using this url. If that works, use the same url in the swf viewer in the parent dashboard, save the parent dashboard back to BI Launch Pad and open it. It should now work.
Let me know if you have any problems with these steps.
Cheers,
Josh

Authorisation in Business Objects Explorer Infospaces created on BEx query

Hello,
We have installed Business Objects Explorer, created Universe on BEx query and created a Explorer Infospace on that universe. everything works fine but the authorisations created for the user in BEx query are not taken into consideration when I login using SAP username "leveraging" SSO.
Is Explorer not designed to consider authorisations in BEX query?
Whats happening during Indexing of an Infospace? Will the system save the data in Business Objects repository from the source of the data?
Thanks in advance.
/Suman

Hi Suman,
You are right , Explorer is not designed to leverage Authorisations in SAP BW.
Polestar is indexing data and keeping it out side of BW. Although you can log in with SSO , it doesn't check the authorization according to BW, it shows everything indexed.
You can have a workaround if the case is simple such as;
Suppose you have 3 region , you can create 3 infospaces and give these authorizations to users from CMC.
But if you really want to use all features of authorization in BW , it is impossible for now.

Hi,
case 1: for WDP, you can create the web service model via "Import Adaptive Web Service" or "Import Web Service Model (deprecated)" by supplying wsdl URL.
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/wiki?path=/display/wdjava/faq%2b-%2bmodels%2b-%2badaptive%2bweb%2bservice
case 2: In ABAP, create a proxy object at trx code SE80.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/bf/d005244e9d1d4d92b2fe7935556b4c/frameset.htm
Both cases are wizard-based. It's pretty intuitive.

Migrating Unmanaged Reports from CE 10 to Business Objects XI R2

Hello all,
We are in the process of migrating our report server from CE 10 to BOJ XI R2.
I'm having issues trying to access Unmanaged Reports using a URL. In CE10 we were able to access unmanaged reports using a URL such as HTTP://<servername>/crystal/enterprise10/MyReport.rpt
But now in BOJ XIR2, when accessing reports using an equivalent URL such as http://<servername>/businessobjects/MyReport.rpt
or
http://<servername>/businessobjects/enterprise115/MyReport.rpt I get the below error
WCA plugin error
Message:An exception has occurred in the plugin with message:
Failed to initialize viewrpt component, with path
<INSTALLDIR>/bobje/enterprise115/solaris_sparc/wcs/components/libwcs_xn_reportviewer.so.
Component may be unavailable.
Is this approach not supported now? I know that in CE10 this approach was deprecated but still supported ( as mentioned in note "1217747 - Unmanaged URL web reporting does not work in Crystal Reports 9 (and later) " )
Or, is there something I'm doing wrong?
Is there a simple work around, short of hosting all the reports on the enterprise server and using any SDK.
Thanks for your help.
PS: I copied libwcs_xn_reportviewer.so from CE10 to the required dir in BOJ, and tried again. This time the library error was on another library. Error keeps cascading and I stopped. I know this is not the right approach, but this tells me they must have removed/changed this feature.
Previous Setup that works
Crystal Enterprise 10 on Solaris 8
Sybase 12
Weblogic
New Setup that I'm having issue with
Business Objects Enterprise XI R2 on Solaris 10. Installed SP2 followed by SP5
MySQL ( for testing only )
tomcat ( for testing only)

The first thing you will want to do is to publish all of your reports to Business Objects XI and make sure they all still work. Obviously they won't have the dynamic parameters anymore but you should just ensure they all work and are able to connect to their databases. You can use a tool like the publishing wizard to help you.
All the reports should now be available inside of XI.
Unfortunately you will need to manually modify all of the 400 reports to use the business objects Dynamic Cascading Parameters DCP.
There should be some DCP info in the Business Views documentation.
I hope this helps

PB30 / PB10 "Store busines document" as business Object "PAPL"

My problem is that i´d like to attach documents to an applicant within PB10 or PB30. To do so i want to use the "Store business document" function but this function is only applicable for business object APPLICANT. I need BO PAPL so that the document are visible in Poratal (MSS).
Has anyone an idea how to do this?

Hi,
Attachments are stored in binary format.
Advantage of storing in SAP is speedy access, than compared to content server.
Disadvantage some of the table space grows exponently.
Some of the tables attachments get stored are SO*
To get the link for the folder and attachments stored in SRGBTBREL
Various type of attachments are ATTA NOTE URL MSG etc.
For custom attachment options can be enabled using class CL_GOS_MANAGER

If useful pl. assign points

Document attachment to a business object

Hi All,
I am trying to attach a document to a business object. Can anybody tell me what is the function module I need to use for this ?
Please help.
Regards,
Jeetu

Hi,
If you are using a Web UI, then i suppose you can attach documents or URL's through Attachments assignment block in the transaction.
If not, can you explain in detail, what is the requirement.

Krishna
