Business Objects Web Service Interface for Scheduling (without Java SDK)

Task:
> use BO web service interface to schedule report generation and fetch job with generated PDF object without having to use Java (Webservice) SDK
Detailed requirements:
> get session ID : ok, session WSDL, <BO server alias>/dswsbobje/services/Session , method "session"
> schedule a specific report : in general clear, via <BO server alias>/dswsbobje/services/BIPlatform, method "schedule"
> set report format to "PDF": is that possible ? With which WSDL and method ?
> schedule right now and only once: is that possible ? With which WSDL and method ?
> can I provide a parameter value for that report ?
> does schedule response contain jobID for later fetching of completed job ?
> how to fetch scheduled job for check of completion ?
> how to check status of job concerning completion ?
> how to fetch created PDF from completed job ?
With focus on my research (have checked and tested with soapUI), WSDL interface of BO seems not to be sufficient to fullfil the upper requirements, so I have to use BO Java SDK, which is powerful enough. Am I right ? Can you provide insights how to fullfil the requirements with the web service interface ? Would make whole implementation simpler (invocation from Tibco, ESB implementation).

The error you're hitting is presumably JBO-25030.
Look to the "merge" command. In the parent you specify just the key of the preexisting parent record, and then in the child you specify your new child record.

What SAP Business Objects Web Services to use with XI3.0

I'm new to BO and is tasked to install it.
What I've installed already is the BOE XI3.0 version and now want to install Xcelsius 2008 Enterprise.
What I can not figure out from the Xcelsius manual or SDN or OSS is what the Business Objects Web Services are the manual instructs you to install with Xcelsius.
I did find something called
BusinessObjects Web Services XI for Windows and downloaded it but is not sure if this is what I need to install as the business Object Web Services on XI 3.0
Can someone please direct me in the correct direction
Thanks in advance
Liezel

Hi,
i am not sure if i understand your question. If you mean Query as a Webservice (QaaWS), this component should be part of your XI 3.0 Enterprise installation. You could also use the flynet (www.flynet.co.uk) which is part of Xcelsius Enterprise 2008 SP1.

Business object web service

Does anyone know a reason why you cannot select certain operations like "findall" when trying to expose a business object as a webservice?
Regards
Dan

Hi,
There is a excerpt in the CE 7.1 Doc that says:
Some of the operations cannot be exposed as Web service. For example, the query operations of the business objects cannot be exposed as Web services because they have output with multiple cardinality. All changes of input or output parameters of the business object or application service operations you expose as Web services reflect to the generated WSDL.
The page is:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwce10/helpdata/en/44/24128b347c1c9fe10000000a11466f/frameset.htm
I don´t understand the reason quite well.

Web service interfaces for monitoring Hosts and instances with SAPHostControl, saphostexec and sapstartsrv

Hi All,
I need to develop a monitoring application for SAP system which will monitor both Host systems and instances.
For this I need to collect Host data as well as instance data. In the below links I could find the SAP netweaver
monitoring agents
Monitoring Hosts with SAPHostControl and saphostexec - Infrastructure of the SAP NetWeaver Management Agents - SAP Libra…
Central Monitoring with SAP NetWeaver Management Agents - Infrastructure of the SAP NetWeaver Management Agents - SAP Li…
Administration/Monitoring of SAP Components with sapstartsrv - Infrastructure of the SAP NetWeaver Management Agents - S…
These links tell that CCMS agent is replaced by these agents from SAP Netweaver 7.0 Eph 2.
I found below doc which explains "How to use the SAPControl Web Service Interfaces" exposed by "sapstartsrv" to execute instance specific tasks,
But it does not tells any methods/APIs/webservice interfaces specific to Host system or get OS data using "saposcol".
SAP Control WebService
Similar to this, Is there any API/webservice to retrieve the OS and Host related data??.
Also, Is there any other doc for SAPHostControl or saphostexec similar to sapstartsrv ??
Thanks,
Swapnil

Hi Swapnil,
I too wanted this info and came across these.
Take a look at these urls :-
http://localhost:1128/SAPHostControl/?wsdl
http://localhost:1128/SAPOscol/?wsdl
grep saphost /etc/services
saphostctrl 1128/tcp # SAPHostControl over SOAP/HTTP
saphostctrls 1129/tcp # SAPHostControl over SOAP/HTTPS
Hope this helps.
Cheers

Business Objects Web Services

I made six wsdl web services using "Query As Web Services" of BusinessObjects XI 3.1. Then i converted these into restful web services using Netbeans.
Out of these, two web services are made for user1 and rest web services are for user2. User1 shouldn't have access to user2's web services and vice versa. How can i achieve this using SAP BO?

i waiting your help?

Business Object Data Services

Hi! Is BO Data Services part of the MDM installation? or do we have to purchase this separately?
Regards
SF

Generally, SAP BusinessObjects Data Services and SAP NetWeaver MDM have separate license tags, but as of 2010, there is also a combined license for SAP NetWeaver MDM and SAP Business Objects Data Services. For details, please contact your Account Manager.

How to create entity object (Business Component) using service interface

Hi,
I have tried to create one entity object (ADF Business Component) in JDeveloper 11g using service interface option instead of database schema but getting Failed to read service WSDL URL: http://....?wsdl message.
I have tried with axis default service Admin & Version wsdl and got same error message.
Regards,
Devang

Hi,
+"Oracle ADF Business Components application modules offer built-in support for web services and for publishing rows of view object data as service data objects (SDOs). This means that you can use an application module both as a local component and as a remotely accessible service, thereby using the same component to support interactive web user interfaces and web service clients. Entity objects that you create in your local Business Components project can utilize SDOs that the service-enabled application module exposes on its service interface."+
This means that you don't use Axis services but ADF Business Components Services. I am not sure this functionality made it in Boxer, but surely will in the next

Business Object Data Services (BODI) without SAP MDM?

Hi,
From an architectural point of view; do you always have to use SAP MDM when you want to use the Business Object Data Services (e.g. for data validity checks when creating customers)?
Or can you use Business Object Data Services in combination with SAP ECC without MDM?
Best regards,
Marius

All Depends on your business needs.
1) As in if you want to use most effective cleansing (BODS contains inbult infor for Adderess cleansing) along with some data governance(Validation, assignments,MDM Workflow) I would say fo with BO-MDM Integration.
2) Here I am not sure via BODS - ECC you can handle ongoing maintainance , it is supreb for first time data load.
so it is better if you use ECC-BO-MDM ---> BI/ECC for smooth transition through out landscape.
3) Here also try to check the data structure compactiblity between BODS and ECC as per their version, it can also create a big impact.
Hope these points can clear many doubts

Merge modules for Business Objects XI service pack 4

I am in the process of developing a deployment package in Installshield 2009 - Basic MSI Project. I tried adding the merge modules I downloaded earlier from the web page, http://support.businessobjects.com/downloads/runtime.asp
Currently I do not see this web page. It would be nice if you could tell me whether do we have a merge module for Crystal Reports XI service pack 4. If we have where from i can download them. Thank you

Thanks a lot for the immediate response. However, I am not using the crystal reports Version, R2 release.
I had actually installed Business Object XI and applied service pack 4 on it. I checked the version in Help->About. It is 11.0.0.
Also my environment is XP Sp2, Visual studio 2003 and Visual studio 6.0. I understand that R2 release is needed if the environment is Visual Studio 2005.
I would like to give a clear picture of the issue I work through.
After deploying the software in the client machine, I came to know that when client tried to print the embedded crystal report (.dsr file) from CrViewer,
1. Page set-up dialog bog gets displayed.
2. After clicking 'OK' button in the page set-up dialog box, nothing happens. It is suppose to bring print dialog.
I simulated this in my development machine (confirmed that Print dialog is is not getting displayed when 'OK' button is clicked from 'Page setup' dialog)
I researched and found out from some web page that if Business Objects XI is updated to Service pack 4, this issue gets resolved
So i applied service pack 4 in my dev. machine and tested the functionality by clicking 'OK' button. This issue is no more.
Next logical step is to propagate the sp4 changes to the installer. I searched for the merge modules corresponding to Business Objects XI - service pack 4. I could not locate it now.
I searched my backup folder, I located some previously downloaded merge modules downloaded from the web page, http://support.businessobjects.com/downloads/runtime.asp
I tried to include these merge modules and received an error message "Internal build error" . My research revealed that inclusion of the merge module, CrystalReports11_RDC_Reportengine.msm (43,306 Kb, 7/4/2007) throws "Internal build error" during compilation of MSI project in Installshield 2009.
Any idea, tips and help to resolve the issue would be appreciated. Thank you.

Web Services Interface to AS400 for Automatic Bill Payment

We need the ability via our UCCX 7.01 SR5 environment to allow customers to call in via IVR and make a payment to our billing system which runs on our AS400. We would prefer to use a web services interface. I'm comfortable with basic scripting but have a feeling this will require more advanced scripting then what I'm comfortable doing. I'd first like to know if interfacing with an AS400 is possible without having to purchase anything else and if so what would be required? Nuance license, etc?

Tim,
This could get very complex very quickly depending on what you are wanting to do. You will likely need at a minimum some sort of Text-to-Speech(TTS) and Advanced-Speech-Recognition(ASR) server as well as the requsite licenses for your UCCX box. Once you get this setup and licensed the real fun begins. You'll need to record the various prompts and work with a vendor to create the necessary scripting. While I'm sure UCCX can do this through various scripts it's not a easy thing to do. You'll definately need to look into the licensing aspects of this from a UCCX side and then the time and money from a scripting point of view. If you reference the scripting guides for your release of UCCX I think you'll find the starter scripts you need there. Hopefully this helps you in the right direction, please let me know if there are other questions you have that I can help you with.

MS Word Web Service Interface: bad format of date and currency fields

Hi,
I am using MS Word Web Service interface to create contract documents. However, my date and currency fields show in a strange format. Date is in"YYYY-MM-DD" format, while currencies always have "." as decimal separator (probably technical values). My user settings are "DD.MM.YYYY" for dates and "n.nnn,dd" for decimal numbers.
My workaround is to create a Z structure for WS interface with char fields and then do conversion through CRM_WST_RT_BADI->OUTBOUND_PROCESSING method. This works, but requires a lot of custom development.
Is there a way to "tell" the interface to use correct formats in MS Word without doing it all manually through custom fields?
Thanks!
KR,
Igor

Oh, indeed!
We might be closer than you think - I live close to Croatian-Slovenian border so we might pop out for a drink! But we can discuss this out of forum...
Now work again:
Is there any documentation on possible formatting keywords? I suppose it's possible to set up decimal places, custom date formats etc.
Cheers,
Igor
