Do I need Enterprise Portal if we are implementing NWBC

I have a questions in regards to Enterprise Portal and NWBC.  We are implementing SAP BW and the BOBJ ( Enterprise, Crystal Reports, Web Intelligence, Xcelsius and Explorer), do i need both Enterprise Portal and NWBC? 
Can I just use NWBC to access all the BOBJ reports?  or do i need portal and run NWBC ontop of it?
Any help would be great
Thanks

Thanks for the reply
But your statement of "You can directly access BW objects from BO", i dont quite understand
I am asking when we implement BW and all the BOBJ reports are created can we access and publish everything through NWBC?  Or do i need portal as well as NWBC?
Also, if we decide to use BEx Analyzer, will this be able to published through NWBC?
Thanks again

  • Enterprise Portal SAP Resources are not starting on Box2...

    Dear SAP World,
    We implemented EP HA project using Two server boxes(2 server nodes). we are using first server box for SAP resources and second server box for Oracle DataBase resources. If i try to take SAP resources online on Box2 then SAP is failing to start over there.
    I observed on Box2 using SAP MMC that always CI resources are trying to start before SCS starts over there that causes i am getting the following errors on default trace files, like some times CI Resources are not able to attach Message Server Port(3901) and some times CI resources failed to connect Enqueue Server Port(3201).

    Naeem,
    It appears the port 8888 is already in use by another app or the bus is already running. try to identofy the app that is using the 8888 port or just change it to a different port, ensure that you have followed the installation guide and configure all the ftp settings and have added a local HM
    Let us know how it goes,

  • Do we need Enterprise version of Weblogic for implementing clustering ?

    IN OBIEE 11.1.1.5 or we can use the bundle version which we get as a package with oracle ?
    appreciate your help

    Have in mind that Xandros is not certified. However, the biggest problem if the distribution is a newer on is about OpenMotif libraries as Developer 6i installation requires version 2.1.30 to install successfully.
    If it may be of any use, there's a guide on installing on [SLES 8|http://knol.google.com/k/cuauhtmoc-amox/install-oracle-developer-6i-on-suse/153594c4goidl/3].

    do anyone of u know the exact error?
    Your help will be appriciated.
    Thanks in advance,

    With a Live Office connection, you would typically use the URL iView and the opendocument URL to integrate the dashboard into the Enterprise Portal. There are existing posts on this forum about opendocument and Xcelsius dashboards.
    Obviously you need to make sure the dashboard refreshes fine outside of the portal, for instance from Infoview.
    Then, you need to look at the cross domain constraints : have both Infoview and Enterprise Portal in the same domain or use crossdomain.xml. They are lots of posts on this forum about that too.

  • Enterprise Portal Administration

    Hi All
    What is Portal administration? Think so related to system administration, content administration,user administration,HR administration form frontend Enterprise portal. What are the backend requirment? Are we required any administrative tool for performing Portal Administrator Role?  I am new to this and not know much more about portal administration. I want practical assistance for this.

    Hi,
         Portal Administration, consists of system administration, content administration,user administration only.
    For Portal Administration, Backend is not mandatory, but since the employee data flows from R3, it goes as a Portal critical component.
    You don't need any Tools for Portal Administration, you need to have the required authorizations, viz system administration, content administration and user administration that you'll get in User Administration.
    Check out the following link for a better understanding. You can search novice information on SDN & help.sap.com

  • Planning without enterprise portal

    dear experts,
    Our client is willing to do budget planning, they dont have enterprise portal and they are not willing to buy it. I want to know whether we can do IP without enterprise portal. As we have to define planning functions and sequences and aggregation on planning modeler, that runs on portal. Is there any other way we can define them and then use them with bex analyzer. Your suggestions would be highly appriciated.
    regards,
    ray

    Hi.
    Unambiguous you CAN NOT use modeler if you have no portal !!!
    On other hand, if your customer want any planning aplication, you still may use BPS (ALV or EXCEL GUI).

  • Which licenses do I need for the Enterprise Portal from Dynamics AX R2 2012

    Dear Community,
    some time ago i heard about the Enterprise Portal, which requires a SharePoint 2013 and a Dynamics AX R2 2012 Server.
    My company has a fully licensed SharePoint 2013 Enterprise Server and enough CALs. We also have a Dynamics AX 2009 Server running. 
    Now to my question: What licenses are needed to get a Enterprise Portal with Dynamics AX 2012?
    Thanks for your responses.
    Sincerely ShareBear9280

    Hi ShareBear,
    According to your description, my understanding is that you want to know which licenses needed for the Enterprise Portal from Dynamics AX 2012 R2.
    There are 4 types of user CALs in Dynamics AX 2012 R2 - Enterprise, Functional, Task, and Self Serve. The number of CALs needed is related to who these users are and what they do.
    More information, please refer to the link:
    http://community.dynamics.com/ax/f/33/t/114710.aspx
    For this issue, I recommend you can post your question to the forum for Microsoft Dynamics AX: 
    http://community.dynamics.com/ax/f/33.aspx .More experts will assist you, then you will get more information relation to Microsoft Dynamics AX.
    Thank you for your understanding and support.

  • WebI reports in Enterprise Portal - Are they static??

    Hi All,
    We currently have Bex reports on our enterprise Portal. Users can actually go to the portal and view the reports and go to edit mode and drag and drop objects and change the view the way they like and save it as a new view.
    We are planning to shift from Bex Reporting to business Objects. If I create an iview for WebI report and have the WebI report on the Portal, can we do the same. Can we still edit the Report and save a different report of it or is it more like a static page with just the data.
    We need to give atleast 100 users the ability to get to these queries and make changes to them as they like and save their own views.
    Also what is Knowledge Management? Does that give us the ability to create webI reports in enterprise Portal. Please calrify..
    Thank you,
    Aparna

    Hi
    you can edit a report which is visible over a URL iView and save it in the BOBJ repository under a different name (assuming your user has been assigned the appropriate auhtorizations in the bobj repository). The problem is that the iView will always invoke the original report.
    I would recommend using KMC. It provides you with the ability to view and create WebI reports from within the EP. Another option is to add a URL iView, hich starts the InfoView (simplified: BOBJ Portal) from within the portal. But the look and feel over the KMC integration is more EP complient.
    Take a look at the Installation and Administration Guide for the BOBJ XI Integration for SAP solutions.

  • What are the activities of Enterprise Portal Admin do ???

    Hello Form,
    I am a BASIS Person (R/3, WEB AS upto 6.40) . I have installed EP 6.0 also.
    I am new to Enterprise Portal.
    1.If some one can list all the topics for a EP Administrator that will be great help for me to focus my study.
    2. Also What are the activities of EP Administrator
    Thanks a lot.
    Ravish

    Hi Ravish,
    <b>Ques 1) If some one can list all the topics for a EP Administrator that will be great help for me to focus my study.</b>
    <b>Ans:</b> As a EP administrator you have to take care of all all the issues regarding the:
    1. Creation of Users, Groups, Roles.
    2. Assigning the roles to the user.
    3. Creating and managing the groups and assigning the users to grops.
    4. Taking care of all the portal Object created. Checking of all the Portal related logs for insuring that all the portal services are working fine.
    5. If there are some issues regarding the users data and there objects then you have to take care of that.
    I guess you must be knowing that there are few roles that you need to have the full control of portal. You must these roles to manage all the administrative functions of the portal.
    <b>Ques 2. Also What are the activities of EP Administrator?</b>
    Ans: Well this question is more or less same as above. I cannot figure out what extra you want to know here. But also let me tell you about the KM related issues in Portal. There is one part of EP that is <b>KM (Knowledge Management)</b>. This is related with the Knowledge sharing using the management of the documents and other resources which are stored in the server repository. By this functionality you can manage the document and can share your documents and relevant data with other.
    One more thing is <b>Collaboration</b>, related to the collaboration of various members of the portal. Here you can configure IM (Instant Messsaging), Desktop Sharing, and various other features.
    I think this information will help you. If you want some more clarification then please let me know.
    Regards
    Pravesh
    PS: Please consider rewarding points for helpful answer.

  • What are the Basic Features of Enterprise Portal

    What are the default, given or otherwise features of SAP netweaver/enterprise portal. I do not want to redo a function or feature/template of the feature/basic iview (portlet) already exists. And where I can find/get these features.
    Thanks.

    Hi Joshua,
    yes, there is preconfigured content (templates) in the portal.
    Have a look at [SAP Help|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/5a/0338f80c0b11d7b84800047582c9f7/frameset.htm].
    You'll find two entries in the left hand navigation: "Pre-configured Roles" and "Standard Portal Content".
    The information is not that detailed but you might get a first impression.
    Besides the standard portal content there are so called Business Packages, which provide pre-configured iViews, pages, worksets and roles for specific business processes / scenarios. You can find them [here in SDN|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/contentportfolio].
