Can a new Business Layer be tied to a specific schema?

I feel like I'm missing something rather simple.
We have a dedicated Connection that provides exposure to multiple schemas (SQL Server) and we have a universe already built (dev environment), we want to use the same Connection, but build out a new Business Layer aimed at a different schema.
Any thoughts or suggestions on this would be appreciated.
Regards,
Alain

Hi
You can use existing connection to build new business layer....But
To add different/new schema into the data foundation you need authorizations to access the different/new schema.
If you change in the connections parameters,
it will reflect in other’s universe also (like:authentication mode, Configuration Parameters)

  • Create a new dimension in business layer from Data source: text file on the web

    Hi,
    I have a text data source which is published every few hours that is accessible from a certain URL. I follow the instruction given in this http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-43144 - where it shows in great detail how to create the connection, data foundation as well as business layer to create a universe for this type of data.
    All is well - I can use this universe in my WEBI doc and display the data.
    However, in order for me to merge the data from this universe with another universe, I need to create  new dimension based on the data from the text file. The new dimension value is simply the first 4 characters of the Subject found in the text file. The "Subject" dimension is of variant type: varchar.
    Following the guide mentioned earlier, the connection is using SAP BO OpenConnectivity driver. And this driver limits severely the SQL statement that I can use to extract a substring of another string. Here's the screenshot of the SQl expression that I can use with this driver
    After hours of searching, I cannot find any other connection driver for a text file that's published on a certain URL. The BO OpenConnection driver is the best that I could find.
    So here are my problems
    1. one of my data source is a text file published on a web
    2. the only connection I can create does not allow me to create  new dimension in the universe to create an important column "subject ID"
    3. I can create the column in webi as a variable. But when I do so, I cannot merge it with existing dimension (webi not allowing to merge these 2 types). And without the merge, the flat file universe with my database universe can't be combined.
    I'm using WEBI Rich client version 4.1 SP3 Patch 1. Build 14.1.3.1300
    Is there any other idea that you can suggest without requiring to change the extracted data?
    Thanks.
    With warm regards

    Hi Bala,
    Were you able to find out a solution for the problem with uploading values for a variable from a text file on the web?  I am confronted with the same request from users.

  • Can not see the menu of New Business Components Package in jdeveloper

    I am just follow the developer guide.

    From the main menu, choose File > New to open the New Object Gallery.
    In the Categories tree, expand the Business Tier node, and select Business Components (BC4J).
    In the Items list, select Business Components Package to open the Business Components Package Wizard. You can also right-click on the OA Project and select New Business Components Package to navigate directly to the Business Components Package Wizard.

    Just got my Mac air and i would like to make a file to store some web addresses for my new business with rodan and fields and I can't do it. Made the file but i cant copy and paste the web addresses in the file to save them. Please help and thank you.

    Yes - well you have to make the file in a word processing Application.
    You could use TextEdit (it's free) Pages (words only), or Numbers (data base) (they are part of iWorks - and may or may not be free (included) on your machine.  You could use MS Office (it is not free) You could use any Open source word processor that plays well with Office (NeoOffice, StarOffice) they are free.
    That's how you create content and copy/paste URLS. Then you save the file to the desktop. If you are going to make more than one file... you make a folder on the desktop and save, or drag the file(s) into it.
    You attach it to your e-mail client which will compress it and e-mail it. An excellent reference is to use Help, from the menu bar, also from inside any application. From your library or book store the OS X for Dummies has a lot of useful information (you don't read it cover to cover but look up chapters about what you'd like to do)
    You can also make appointments at your local Apple store for individualized help (if a store is nearby)

  • Can I copy MATERIAL adapter object and create new business object in R3AC1

    Hi experts,
    I need to copy MATERIAL adapter object and create a new business object R3AC1.
    Please let me know whether this is feasible.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Keya

    Usually  when there is a need to change/create an adapter object, I suggest to change object class to CUSTOMIZING in R3AC1. Then save it and call transaction R3AC3. There do necessary changes and afterwards switch back to original object class. There is no copy functionality for adapter objects. Kindly use transaction R3AC3 to create a new adapter object and maintain all tabs according to your requirements. When you are finished, kindly change the object class "CUSTOMIZING" to the original class name you're copying and the new adapter object will be visible in R3AC1.

  • Can't burn Dual Layer DVD-R on new Mac Pro?

    Can't burn Dual Layer DVD-R on new Mac Pro?
    I have a new Mac Pro with Pioneer DVD burner built in. I've since found out that it only burns Dual Layer +R type, and not the -R type.
    My replication company need a Dual Layer -R type DVD as they can't get a glass-master off the +R type Dual Layer discs.
    Can anyone recommend/suggest a cheap way of being able to either master off a DVD to Dual Layer -R disc, or perhaps copy my Dual Layer +R to a Dual Layer -R ?
    Thanks guys.

    Everything I have ever read about the DVD-R DL discs says the layer break can't be chosen by the author. It is not a DVDSP issue; it is an issue with the media.
    This is actually listed in the DVDSP 4.1 Late Breaking News on page 15:
    "Using DVD-R Dual-Layer Media
    If your system contains a DVD drive that can write to the new DVD-R dual-layer media, you can burn your DVD project to it with DVD Studio Pro. However, there are several issues:
    Since there is no current way for DVD Studio Pro to identify DVD-R dual-layer media as having two layers, burning a dual-layer project to it results in a warning appearing telling you that the DVD media may have insufficient room to hold the project. This message is based on the assumption that the disc is single layer. Both layers of the disc will be written to as needed, however, when you click Continue.
    If you are burning a dual-layer project, the break point you set will not affect where the layer break actually occurs. Instead, the first layer is written to until filled, at which point the drive switches to writing to the second layer.
    The switch between layers is a seamless layer change not supported by some DVD players, which may stop playing the disc when the switch point is reached.
    Important: Do not use DVD-R dual-layer media unless these issues do not impact your project.
    You can use DVD+R double-layer media for burning your dual-layer projects. With DVD+R double-layer media, DVD Studio Pro places the layer break point and sets the switch point to be nonseamless as specified in your project."
    Can you tell us what drive you have and what firmware (revision) it is?

  • Re-Using Java Business Layer in Flex

    I am new to flex and particulalry looking at this to use as front end for existing Web based Java Application as front end. We have comprehensive business layer written using POJOs and DAOs and want to reuse it. I will be using remote objects to call servr side code and return domain objects (models/POJO). As per my understanding to use the strict typed data such as objects of business classes i have to create ActionScript class and bind it with corrosponding Java class. This looks lots of code duplicaiton to me.
    Can you please guide me if my understanding are wrong or i'm missing something. Is there better way to acheive the above?
    Thanks in advance.

    HTTPService can call HTML pages, so maybe Tapestry would work?
    Have you considered using JSON to format the object data?

  • Error when importing business layer using the eulpi

    Hi there,
    I have a problem importing a new business area into my TEST EUL environment from my DEV EUL. (they are on different databases, i.e. one EUL for each database but all databases are identical apart from database name).
    i.e. 1st I export the business area from DEV using the following command:
    eulapi -connect username/password@${DATABASE} -export ${EXP_FILE} -business_area "${BUS_AREA}" -identifier -log ${LOG_FILE} -audit_info
    and it works perfectly, and I can import the resulting Business area file into a new EUL if the Business area already exists, however, if the business area does not exist on the TEST eul then I get the following error using the command:
    eulapi -connect username/password@${DATABASE} -import ${EXP_FILE} -identifier -preserve_workbook_owner -import_rename_mode refresh -log ${LOG_FILE}
    Could not locate the Folder with identifier 'XXXXX' in the target End User Layer
    Import completed, but with warnings. Please check the result.
    This command works to replace the business area if it already exists, but fails if the business area does not already exist, which is actually what I want to do, i.e. create business area in DEV and export it and then import to TEST as part of the test cycle.
    The above command actually creates the business area but not the underlying folder. All permissions, database links etc on both DEV and TEST environments are identical.
    Your help is appreciated!

    Hi,
    The export of the business area contains details of the business area and which folders are contained in the business area, but not the details of the folders themselves.
    Hence if you import a new business area and the folders contained in the BA are not in the EUL you will get an error locating the folder.
    Therefore to create a new BA you need to export all the folders in the BA and then export the BA itself. Then when you import you need to import the new folders first, then the BA.

  • New Business Model: What kind of consultant will arise?

    Some evangelists predict the 'death of the consultant' as is there. To what extent we will be affected by this revolution?
    "With the availabilty of the HANA technology, exisiting business processes become real-time, process steps become obsolete, new process will evolve that were not possible so far and companies will invent new business models based on new products and services - all that requireed consultants who support that transition!"
    Michael Lamade (OpenSAP Team)
    "Future does not have to be an increment of the past."
    Dr. Vishal Sikka, quoting Alan Kay in "An Introduction to SAP HANA"
    What do you think?

    I don't believe BW is really dying as a "modeling environment".
    What might probably happen is for BW to disappear as an additional persistence layer (the BW Box), i.e. the Embedded BW scenario tends to gain more and more visibility. With virtual infoproviders and transformations being pushed down to the HANA layer, you can get pretty much the same results than a persistent BW with very good performance and 1/10th of the data footprint (zero replication).
    This is already true today. Check for example the details on the analytical applications on top of SFIN (Smart Financials) 1.0. SFIN is the new FI module (aka HANA GL), rebuilt from scratch on top of HANA. i.e it is the first piece of ERP that was not adapted but born on top of an in-memory architecture. It was what HANA was developed for in the first place (i.e. the next-generation SAP ERP architecture). And its analytical applications, for example the new SAP Smart Cash Management app, are completely built on top of Virtual Infoproviders in Embedded BW (i.e. BW as a LDW, Logical Data Warehouse). This means the modeling skills of BW Consultants are not gonna disappear, they'll still be required since BW infoproviders on top of VIPs, Composite Providers, BEx Queries etc. are all gonna be there for a long, long time.
    More details on SFIN analytical apps:
    Smart Financials 1.0 – SAP Help Portal Page
    https://websmp102.sap-ag.de/~sapidb/011000358700000164402014E/SmartFinancials_RN_EN.pdf
    BI Content for SAP Smart Cash Management - SAP Library
    Adaptations for Smart Financials Planning Applications - Integrated Business Planning - SAP Library
    SAP delivers the following planning applications:
    Cost center planning on years and periods
    Project planning on years and periods
    Internal order planning on years and periods
    Market segment planning on years and periods
    Profit center planning on years and periods
    Functional area planning on years and periods
    P&L planning on years and periods
    These applications consist of “local” BI content. “Local” means that this BI content is shipped with the Smart Financials system and not with the “central” BI content. Local content runs on the ERP system directly using the “Embedded BW” and does not need a separate BW installation. The content for Smart Financials planning consists of HANA views, InfoProviders, MultiProviders, Aggregation Levels, Queries, Filters, Planning functions, Planning sequences, and Analysis Workbooks.
    Another point is that this means that the investments that SAP customers have made on top of BW are also going to be protected.
    They just need to adapt the Data Source layer to the new ODP (Operational Data Provisioning) concept and the rest will pretty much work as is.
    The same adaptions are being made by SAP in the standard BI Content.
    Best regards,
    Henrique.

  • Doubt on OLAP  Business layer

    Dear Experts,
    I am new to IDT. I have started getting the concepts.
    My doubt is, OLAP Business layer will created without using Data foundation.
    In this case, don't we need schema for the relevant tables huh? . How the normalization of tables and joins will be handled? .
    can anyone please explain me ?..
    Thanks in Advance!
    Bala Krish

    Hi
    while creating universe you have two options to select the connections
    OLAP Connection
    Relational Connection
    As per your requirement you have chosen OLAP Connection i think.
    So OLAP connections to connect to an SAP NetWeaver BW data source based on a BW server, a cube, and a BEx query.
    If your backed as BW ...then No business layer or universe is required to access BEx queries. We can directly select the BEx query as a data source.
    You can do all the calculations & data restriction (CKF, RKF, Filters and Variables) and use Bex Q as direct source.
    Please find the below link. To know the difference b/w OLAP and Relational connections and what are the advantages using the OLAP connection.
    SAP BW is an OLAP vs. Relation connection

  • Business Layer not refreshed automatically

    Dear Friends,
      I'm working on IDT  for creating business layers based on SAP BW Multi-providers. The issue I'm facing right now is that whenever I modify the underlying Multi-provider, my business layer is not getting refreshed automatically with the changes.
      Please let me know if I need to do any settings in IDT for the business layer to get refreshed automatically or do I need to create a fresh design right from creating the connections.
    Many Thanks,
    Karanam.

    Another quick question with something similar to above. I am building the UNX universe on top of Multi Provider and I noticed that normal select statements on Dimensions would return "ZERO" records unless a measure is included in the query. Is there a workaround for this? I do not mind using a dummy null measure for simple queries. However, this is becoming cumber some when doing cascading prompts. IDT has a simple way of doing it but me without being able to generate LOVs without a dummy measure, its becoming difficult to implement cascading LOVs.
    Now the 2nd question is, I am developing all in DEV. When I use LCM and promote it to my QA, I can go ahead and create a new connection pointing to my QA Backend. However, when I try to change the connection from Dev to QA in the IDT Datafoundation "Connections" tab, it allows me to change the connection. However, the objects in the Business Layer does not reflect the new Calalog Name of the QA connection and none of them would parse. For example, Lets say my Dev connection is named D31Conn and my QA connection is named Q31Conn. Their catalog names by defaulyt are D31Conn and Q31Conn. Now, after developing my universe in BOBJ Dev and promoting it to QA, I am creating a new connection in BOBJ QA called Q31 Conn. When I open the promoted universe and try to change the connection from D31conn to Q31conn, it does it successfully. However, in my business layer, all objects would not parse and woul fail because their SQL still points to the old Catalog D31Conn instead of Q31Conn. Am I missing something here? Any help is much appreciated !

    DSD

    Hi DSD,
    It sounds like a security / privilege issue to me. You could try the following:
    1.) In Discoverer Admin can you confirm that the person and responsibility you are logging into Desktop with, has been given access to the Business Area in Tools>Security.
    2.) In Discoverer Admin could you also check in Tools>Privileges to ensure that that the Desktop user has ‘User Edition’ selected.
    3.) If you have more than one End User Layer (EUL) then it could be that you are logging into the wrong one. In Desktop click Tools>Options>EUL and ensure there aren’t more that two in the list. If there are select the correct one that you want to connect in as. Log out of Desktop and then back in again.
    For more information in Security and Privileges read one of Oracle Guides.
