Business One Client - Automating DB login..

Hi, my apologies if this is the wrong area to post this, please feel free to move to the correct section if here is incorrect.
I'm wondering if anyone knows of a way to setup the SAP client so that a new user doesn't have to enter (or have entered) the Database server, and SA username/password before they get the choice of companies.
Currently, we are running the client on a terminal server, yet if a new user connects, someone has to configure/enter the db servername and username/password.
I'd like to be able to set it up so that when a new user logs in (and their profile is automatically created), that they are automatically connected to the correct database server within the Sap Business One client.
I've had a look in the %userprofile%\Local Settings\Sap... folder, and a quick poke around in the registry, but I can't find where it saves the information so I can either replicate it for the default user profile, or add a regmerge on login to enter it.
Can anyone help?

I'm not sure what you mean, the checking feature is a fairly standard thing for script files, to ensure it's only been run once. Ie, you don't want it running every time they login in case it modifies something unexpectedly.
As for it needing security proceedures, as far as I can tell, there are none, that automatically configures the Database Server it will connect to, and enters automatically the SA username and password for every single new user that connects to the server.
If I was going to have my security hat on, I'd be concearned about it, but since we limit access to the terminal server by usergroup, it's only authorised SAP users that are able to log on in the first place, and since our SAP consultants usual proceedure is to then enter the SA username and password for them manually, and configure the DB server, this is no different. (Except now she doesn't have to anymore).
Anyway! for those that are interested, I changed it slightly, now there are no manual xml creation steps.
I simply take a generic XML file, and modify it with a vbs script using a batch file that runs on user login.
Here's the batch file:
SET Logfile="C:\Documents and Settings\%USERNAME%\Local Settings\Application Data\SAP\SAP Business One\SB1Customised.log"
IF EXIST %Logfile% GOTO END
ECHO DATE /T >> %Logfile% & Time /T >> %Logfile%
cscript "C:\Documents and Settings\%username%\Local Settings\Application Data\SAP\SAP Business One\replace.vbs" "C:\Documents and Settings\%username%\Local Settings\Application Data\SAP\SAP Business One\b1-current-user.xml" "%%Username%%" "%Username%"
:END
Heres the vb script:
Const ForReading = 1
Const ForWriting = 2
strFileName = Wscript.Arguments(0)
strOldText = Wscript.Arguments(1)
strNewText = Wscript.Arguments(2)
Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set objFile = objFSO.OpenTextFile(strFileName, ForReading)
strText = objFile.ReadAll
objFile.Close
strNewText = Replace(strText, strOldText, strNewText)
Set objFile = objFSO.OpenTextFile(strFileName, ForWriting)
objFile.WriteLine strNewText
objFile.Close
Save that as "replace.vbs" and put it in the Default User -> Sap Business One directory.
And thankyou for all your help!

Installation of SAP Business One client and required administration rights

Dear community,
I would like to kindly ask you for your feedback on the installation of SAP Business One client and its patches on end-user computers.
The pain points I have heard so far are the following:
- The installation of SAP Business One client and its patches has to be started by a user with administrator rights. As far as I know (and please correct me if I am wrong), this is also required in case of installation of any other software.
- End users usually do not have administrator rights and therefore the SAP Business One clients have to be manually upgraded by administrator. This is time consuming (and therefore costly) activity.
We are considering to design a new solution which would overcome the above limitations.
I would like to confirm with you if my understanding is correct:
Question 1:
Is it a common situation that the end-users of SAP Business One client do not have administrator rights and therefore cannot install the patches of SAP Business One client by themselves?
If yes, how do you resolve this currently?
Question 2:
Do you use Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager or Active Directory (or any other 3rd party solution) to automatically distribute software packages and updates to client PCs at your customers?
Question 3:
If the SAP Business One client installation (and its patches) is delivered as MSI package with silent installation capability, would you be able to automate the deployment of B1 client updates to client PC using the abovementioned technologies? Or can you still see some obstacles?
Thank you
Best regards

SAP Business One Product Management

Dear all,
Thank you very much for your comments, very helpful!
@Marco - SAP Business One 8.8 client currently does not support the silent installation / upgrade. However we are currently considering this requirement and we would like to deliver it as soon as possible.
We are currently considering several possible designs. One of them is as follows:
1. A new SAP Business One Updater Service will be installed on each client workstation.
It will be a windows service installed and running under a local system account.
2. The updater service will check regularly if there are any new patches of SAP Business One client or add-ons uploaded to a configured shared directory.
3. If a new patch is found in the shared directory, the updater service will SILENTLY install the new patch (add-ons, SAP Business One) on the client workstation.
The service would be able to install patches even if nobody is logged in.
Questions:
If we consider the above design, there are a few open topics:
1. During the upgrade of the SAP Business One server, the client patches (and SAP add-on patches, partner add-ons) would be placed to a SHARED directory instead of into SBO-Common (as it is implemented currently).
- Does this have any impact on your tools, processes or add-ons?
2. SAP Business One upgrade wizard will put the latest patch of SAP Business One client into a configured shared directory. The shared directory will have to be read-only for everybody in the network to avoid that the valid installation files are replaced by malware or virus infected files
- Can you configure such a shared directory?
From customer perspective, if a new patch is put into the shared directory, the updater service can behave as follows:
1. Manually initiated upgrade of the client
Example: Customer starts the old (not upgraded) SAP Business One client. The client will inform him/her that a new patch has been found and it has to be installed in order to continue working with the client. After customer clicks "Yes", the upgrader service starts the silent installation of the client and informs customer about the progress. Once the upgrade is finished, the upgraded SAP Business One client will be started automatically.
2. Automatic update:
- Update the client automatically (e.g. overnight) if customer is not working with SAP Business One
- If SAP Business One client is running, ask customer if he/she wishes to upgrade the client now or to delay the upgrade by X minutes.
Question: Which of the above two scenarios would you and your customers prefer?
If the upgrade is fully silent, automated and handled by the upgrader service, Is it acceptable for customers to trigger the installation manually and wait till the client is upgraded? Or would they prefer to have the client updated for them e.g. overnight so they can immediately start to work?
Best regards
Jan

Installation error of SAP Business One Client after server disconnection

Hello,
While installing the SAP Business One Client to my laptop, the SAP server network connection accidentally interrupted and my installation breaks off. I did cancel the setup and try to remove the SAP Business One DI API using uninstaller. After removing the corrupted application I tried to run again the setup.exe from the server but I got this error:
Previous version of SAP Business One DI API uninstallation failed:
sapserver\B1_SHR\Client\SAP DIAPI Installation\setup.exe
SAP Business One Client installation will be aborted.
I also tried to remove the registry files using some registry cleaner but still I got the error.
Encountered something like this before? Need some help, thanks in advance!
Regards,
Ren

Hi All,
Sorry to re open this thread, but I am having a similar issue in attempting to upgrade a 2007 installation to 8.81.
When attempting the upgrade Server Tools, SDK, and even Client wont uninstall from either the upgrade process or manually from control panel.
I have conducted all the mentioned solutions as well as running registry cleaner all to no effect.
I have even attempted re installing the 2007 application but this returns a 1612 install shield error.
Any advice would be higher appreciated.

Business One Client installation issue

Last Friday we upgraded our SAP Busness One to 8.81 from 8.8 and the update launched for the client installation on XP Pro box, but the installation got interupted and did not complete. I was faced with the problem that I can't uninstall the old client with Add/Remove programs as it has an error that files are missing. the same is if I click on the Setup.exe in the Client shared folder, it wants to uninstall the old version, but bombs as it is missing files.
The question is how do I manually uninstall the old client so I can do a new install of the new version?
As a bandaid, I was able to upgrade another XP Pro box and copy the directory into the probelm one and it lets SAP Business One run. However, I am missing a couple of registry entries.

Same happen to me month back , it was unable to uninstall or remove registry from the system and when we start the new setup it says you already have SAP B1 installed in your system. I check the Program Files folder and there is no SAP folder in it .
Solution but not a professional one...
Just copy the SAP folder from other system which has client installed and working properly and paste it into Program Files .
Now you can run SAP

Creation of Add-on package for 64 bit and 32 bit SAP Business One Client

Please help me creating package for 64 bit and 32 bit SAP Business One. If Add-on executable is compiled with x86 option then there is no issue of connecting Add-on with 32 bit SAP Business one and if Add-on executable is compiled with Any CPU option then there is no issue of connecting Add-on with 64 bit SAP Business one. Problems are mentioned as below
1. My Add-on uses MS ACCESS connection and the connection is read using Jet OLEDB 4.0 provider. It works fine for x86 compile mode but not when compile mode is Any CPU. I searched for the issue on Google and found a solution to change MS ACCESS connection provider to ACE.OLEDB.12.0 but again ACE provider is installed according to the Office version i.e. 32 bit or 64 bit office suite. If I install 32 bit ACE provider then Add-on executable compiled with x86 version is working fine but with Any CPU option throws error as provider is not registered on current machine.
2. Secodly, our license validation activex dll is build using vb 6.0 and therefore when Add-on executable is compiled using Any CPU option, Add-on EXE cannot read from license dll. Any suggestion, how the activeX dll can be compiled whose component can be created from for X86 compiled exe and any cpu compiled exe.
Please help because we are stuck in this issue and cannot move forward.
Thanks.

Hi Alejandro,
That is one solution but did your add on used ms access connection? if you used Jet oledb to connection string or ace oledb connection string? what if 32 bit office is installed and what if 64 office is installed? how did you found the office version in install script? after determining the office version how did you installed Microsoft redistributable for ace oledb (32 bit or 64 bi )?
I am sorry that I asked many questions but these are the problems where I am stuck with the addon installer?
Thanks

Upgrade Error Failed to upgrade SAP Business One Client

Hi All,
I have upgraded one of our customers from SAP 9.0 to 9.1 PL5.
Everything upgraded successfully through the wizard. When launching the client, the 32 bit client upgraded with no errors. When attempting to open the 64 bit client I get the error above. I have also uninstalled the 64 bit client and re installed from the B1-Shr folder with the same result.
This is a 64 bit Windows Server 2008 R2 machine. Log files are not showing any errors.
Has anyone never ran into this?
Sincerely,
Chris Sorensen

Chris
I just had this happen with PL06.
It gave me this message for both 32 bit and 64 bit client
When I checked - even though it said it had not upgraded the 32 bit client it already had.
With the 64 bit client I had to 100% reboot and go directly to the client upgrade and then it worked.
You might try that. Seems like something was interfering with it.

SAP Business One Client Stuck While upgrading

Hi Experts,
I have successfully run the upgrade 8.8 patch leve 8 on the server(windows 2003). The server also had the client installed.
As usually we opened up the client for autoupgrade, it seems like it was taking too much time to upgrade and it looked like the client upgrade got stuck.
So we ended the task(The client icon on the desktop disappeared the next moment. ) and tried to upgrade the client using the B1share folder.
We get the messages like Error 1605: This action is valid only for currently installed products . when i say okay
Error:Number:0*80040702
Description: Failed to load Dll; Creator dll
Next i have also tried to uninstall from add\remove programs, then it says
error 1628: failed to complete installation.
Please let me know how to solve this problem.
Regards,
Chidamber.

Cannot reinstall SAP Business One 32 Bit Client program

Hi Everyone,
I started with a computer which had SAP Business One Clients (32 & 64 Bit versions) installed, along with the DTW (Data Transfer Workbench). I have since uninstalled both Business One clients, and am now wanting to reinstall the 32 Bit Client (only).
When I double click on the Setup.exe file I am presented with the message below -
I don't understand why I am presented with this message given that I have uninstalled the software.
In addition to uninstalling the software through the Windows (7) Control Panel, I have also manually deleted all files and folders related to Business One (using a Windows Search), with the exception of those files related to the DTW, and finally deleted all TEMP files.
If I click on Cancel the setup stops, but if I click on OK I see the following -
When I click on OK, above, I see the following -
What can I do now to fully remove all traces of the previous Client installations so that I can reinstall the 32 Bit Client?
Any advice will be greatly appreciated.
Kind Regards,
David

Hi Everyone,
Firstly I now have an 'S-User ID', so I have access to SAP Resources.
Secondly, thank you Sridharan for posting the information to this thread, it is a great help (particularly given that I wasn't sure how long it would take my provider to organise an S-User ID).
Thirdly; these are the actions I have taken - none have helped!
Attempted installation in the 'hidden' Windows Administrator account
http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/enable-the-hidden-administrator-account-on-windows-vista/
THE FOLLOWING COME FROM THE OFFICIAL SAP 'FIX' (as shown above in Sridharan's post)
1). Tried both points, a), and b), in the InstallShield link -
http://consumerdocs.installshield.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=Q108474&sliceId=1
However I could not proceed with point 3), because by my reckoning the SAP Business One Client that I am using relies upon Installshield 17 (and there is no link available for this version!).
If I am incorrect about the above can somebody please let me know which version of Installshield was used, and I will then return to point c) of the Installshield 'Q108474' link.
2). Microsoft C++ 2005 is not installed on the computer.
3). Registry entries did not exist, and I am going to assume where removed when I performed a registry clean with Registry Mechanic (before posting this thread).
I have downloaded a trial version of Installshield Enterprise, and I am hopeful that it will contain a version 17 driver file, in which case I will return to 'Q108474'.
In the meantime however if anybody has any further suggestions can you please post?
I really don't want to reinstall Windows just because one program will not load.
Kind Regards,
David

SAP Business One iPad Apps Sales Catalog photo problem

Dear all,
I have a question about the iPad SAP Business One Mobile Apps Sales Catalog.
Inside the Sales Catalog, it will show the Item group with pictures and when you look inside the item group, it will show the Item image which is set up in the Item Master.
Can anyone help on this? Thanks very much.

According to the B1if sap.GetItemPicture Scenario, the path to the picture is looked up by the following query.
SELECT BitmapPath AS 'bitmappath' FROM OADP
The PictureName is passed into the GetItemPicture web service as a parameter.
This leads me to my next question:
What do you have the Pictures Folder (BitmapPath) set to in General Settings?
I am guessing you have it set to C:\Program Files\SAP\..........
The problem with this is that it save the picture to your local client computer and B1if is running on the server. You will want to change the path to a network path that looks something like this:
\\server\b1_shr\Pictures
Why?
If the Pictures Folder is set to C:\Program Files\SAP\.....
1. When a user attaches an image, SAP Business One client places the picture in C:\Program Files\SAP\..... path on the client workstation, not on the server.
2. B1if is usually run on the server and does not have access to a client workstation
If Pictures folder is C:\Program Files\SAP\......., B1if looks up the Pictures Folder set in the database and appends the file. In this case, B1if is reading C:\Program Files\SAP\.....\<imagefile>.jpg on the server in which B1if is running.
3. The only time using a C:\Program Files\SAP\...... would work is when the client, server and B1if is running on the same machine and the permission to the C:\Program Files\SAP\..... folder is set up to allow B1if to read from the directory and the client to write to the directory.
Using UNC notation
if the Pictures Folder is set to a UNC path \\Server\b1_shr\Pictures
1. When the user attaches an image, SAP Business One client places the picture on the server
2. B1if will read the picture from the server from the shared folder on the server
Conclusion
You need to use UNC notation to identify the path of the Picture Folder so that all pictures are placed in the same location.
What is your path set to for the Pictures Folder in General Settings?

SAP Business One 8.8. Report doesn't show and workstation doesn't respond.

Hi all,
We have a customer with:
SAP Business One 8.8 (8.80.237) PL: 19 HOTFIX1.
Sql Server 2005
Crystal Reports 12.1.3.1028
We have done some reports wich run under server machine but not under workstation.
Even i've done a dummy report without any data connection and it doesn't run under workstation (server machine works perfectly). This dummy report only show a label with static text "Hola".
We don't receive any error message, SAP Business One client doesn't respond and in task manager you can see "not responding" message.
SAP support connected to our customer installation and they suggested us formatting workstations computers. We did it but the problem persists. Thank you very much for your help.
Kind regards,
Nauzet Díaz

Hi,
In this case, why you not responded to SAP for their suggestion of formatting the workstation?
If you unfortunately closed the old support ticket, then just raise a new support ticket with reference of the old one too.

Bala

Unable to open 2007B database in SAP Business One version 8.8

Hi Experts,
We are in the process of upgrading one of our client from SAP Business one 2007B PL13 to SAP Business One 8.8. While trying to open the client's live database in 8.8, system throws a message "You cannot upgrade company databases from SAP Business One client. Use the Upgrade CD or contact your IT administrator for the upgrade". Plz guide me on how can I open the DBs used in 2007B in 8.8??
Regards,
Madhavan

Hi
I thiink your database is not updated ..Install client in your server and try with opening up ..
It will probably ask you to back up the database and upgrade ...
If not ,uninstall everything thing ..instead of having new installation ,download the upgrade version and see if resolves your issue
Hope this helps
