SEM-BCS - SAP Netweaver BI 7.0 and SEM-BW 600 -add on install issue

Dear BCS Consultants:
My client has installed NWeaver BI 7.0 and SEM BW 600 - add-on.
However, when I tried to access BCS, it says 'lock table overflow'.
Am I supposed to configure something before I access BCS or it is a Basis issue?
Is there any other support package to be installed?
Please guide me.
Thanks ins advance.
SAI2

Yes..This is a Basis Issue. I got the same error and the Basis resolved it.
Btw...Did you guys install SEM 6.0 on top of BI 7.0 right ?
Please confirm as my client basis is in confusion on this..
Thanks in advance,
KG.

Difference between SAP NetWeaver Gateway 2.0 and SAP NetWeaver Gateway productivity accelerator for Microsoft

Hi Experts ,
Can anyone tell me the difference between SAP NetWeaver Gateway 2.0 and SAP NetWeaver Gateway productivity accelerator for Microsoft ?

SAP Netweaver Gateway 2.0 is a product for Exposing ERP data as OData for external consumption which is independent of any Microsoft product. Using this you can model OData services and Expose them for light weight consumption. You can use this in use cases where you just want to consume the OData in some client or so, and you do not want any kind of accelerators to help you in development or in your integration.
GWPAM is an interoperability framework from SAP that leverages SAP NetWeaver Gateway and Microsoft technologies enabling customers and partners to easily and quickly compose solutions that consume and extend SAP throughout Microsoft technologies for on premise and on demand deployment. With GWPAM you get components like

SAP NetWeaver 2004 & 2004s Trials and Previews on Windows Platform

Has anybody installed "SAP NetWeaver 2004 & 2004s Trials and Previews on Windows Platform" which is in the downloads section.
It says it supports Windows2000, & Windows XP also, but when I tried to install it on Windows XP says "prerequisite conditions not met. you need windows 2003Server or worktation etc" message. Even then I tried continuing installtion but it failed.
Also, did anyone try installing it on Windows Vista? Any luck?

SAP Netweaver Portal - Folder structure and report publishing strategy

Hi gurus,
I'm working on a project in which we are publishing BW reports in SAP Netweaver Portal (prior to this, we were using SAP Bex Browser) organizing it by Department (workset, 2nd lvl of navigation), Business Processes (workset, 3rd lvl of navigation) and "iview types" (transactions, queries, dashboards and so on). On 1st level we have a workset simply called "Reports".
For each PFCG role we have on BW (ABAP Server), we created a portal role and defined which of the higher navigation tiers is visible to users (delta-linking the top level navigation worksets to the portal role and setting visible accordingly) and then we assigned Portal roles to the appropriated Group (PFCG role) so all users that have access to certain PFCG role can have access to the corresponding Portal role.
For example:
In BW (ABAP) we have a PFCG Role: Sales PMR Analysis - Administrator, which grants access to Sales Infoproviders, queries and data for PMR analysis. The user that have access to it, should be able to see:
|Reports|
|Sales Administration|
v PMR Analysis
> Web Queries
> Transactions
> Dashboards
> Workbooks
In Portal we create a workset that has: "Reports" and under it, all Departments (Sales Administration, Financial, Services, Human Resources and so on) set as "not visible". We create a Portal role called PMR Analysis and add the Report/Departments workset, set Sales Administration as visible and add worksets/folders named PMR Analysis, Web queries, Transactions, etc, and all the corresponding iviews under it.
If we assign this new Portal role to the Group of the corresponding PFCG role, the user will see exactly as the example from above.
Pros: The users have a clean view of the reports he/she has access.
Cons: The users doesn't have a clear view of what is available in BW so he can request access. There might be some useful report lost in on of the hundreds of BW roles that he doesn't know it exist.
One of the options would be to grant visibility to ALL departments, business processes and iviews in Portal and let PFCG security roles control user access, but that might be confusing to have an overwhelming amount of links, making it hard to find what the user needs, specially during first access. Not to mention possible security breaches.
So, I'd like to know how other consultants are defining this kind of folder structure and report publishing strategy in Portal. Ideally we would like to be able to have:
- Visibility of all existant reports even those that the user does not have acess (so he can learn that it exist and request access)
- Clean view of reports, segmented by department and business processes.
- Possibility to search for reports, even for those that the user does not have access.
I'd appreciate if you guys can share your experience on this.
Thanks in advance.
Leandro

Cons: The users doesn't have a clear view of what is available in BW so he can request access. There might be some useful report lost in on of the hundreds of BW roles that he doesn't know it exist
This is not a refutation: your BW developers/consultants should be able to write reports, which points you in case of insufficent backend rights. EP is not designed to be familiar with ABAP security concept and cant take any influence at it.

Yes, bad idea.
- Visibility of all existant reports even those that the user does not have acess (so he can learn that it exist and request access)
As you already wrote on your own, this would be not good
- Clean view of reports, segmented by department and business processes.
- Possibility to search for reports, even for those that the user does not have access.
This is not covered by SAP, if you wanna provide that, develop it on your own.

SEM-BCS Statistical FS Items (Statistical: Balance and Statistical: Flow)

Hi,
SEM-BCS 4.0 and SEM-BCS 6.0 both have 2 types of Statistical FS Item (Financial Statement item); "Statistical: Balance" and "Statistical: Flow".
I note that these are treated differently, e.g. in Balance Carryforward task, Statistical: Balance are carried forward automatically while Statistical: Flow are not.
My question is, what is the difference between these statistical item types?
And what are they (or could they be) used for?

Hi,
I'll try to explain you like the following:
Balance is a value that is derived from beginning balance plus movement. Flow is the movement itself.
Trial balance is an example of balance, while movement type is an example of flow.
When you do balance carry forward, system add all the flow type that you define to make a balance, and carry forward the balance only.
Hope it helps.
regards,

SAP Netweaver 7.3 BI and ECC 6.0 across different OS

Hello all,
We are currently upgrading to ECC 6.0 EHP 5 on AIX/Oracle 11g. Our Business Intelligence team would like to run Netweaver 7.3 BI along with BOBJ 4.0 and Data Services 4.0 on Windows Server 2008.
I was just wondering whether this was possible for integration, or whether we would encounter any sort of interoperability issues? Any help or notes on interoperability would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi,
Integration between SAP NetWeaver BW and SAP ERP (ECC) is at an application level so there is no problem with the solutions being on a different OS or DB. There are no specific notes as this is standard functionality of the exactor framework (RFC based) and its connection to BW DataSources.

SAP NetWeaver 04s SP7 installation and DHCP server

Hi All,
I am installing SAP NetWeaver on a machine which I use at work. I am little scared whether this installation might harm my computer or the local corporate network. This machine is connected to the local network (uses DHCP) to get the IP address.
Are there any precautions which I need to take before I start practicing on this platform ?
I read this below point in the installation instructions...
=========================================================
If no DHCP server is available on your network (which dynamically determines the IP address) or your computer is not connected to any network, you need to install the virtual interface adapter MS Loopback Adapter. This is described in detail within the contents of the download package.
=========================================================
Now as my computer is using DHCP (unknown location), if I install SAP NetWeaver 04s SP7, do I need to disconnect my comp from the Network and then install the MS loopback adapter ? or Its ok to ignore the DHCP option as my comp is already using DHCP ?
Thanks and Best Regards
Ayub.

Hi Ayub,
U dont need to disconnect ur computer from network. Just install a microsoft loopback adapter and assign it a static ip, and assign that ip and hostname on windows\etc\hosts file. it will installs on loopback adapter and ur local network connection will be as it is.
hope it will help u.

Difference between SAP Netweaver PI and SAP Netweaver Mobile and SAP DOE

HI,
I am learning Sybase Unwired Platform and SAP PI 7.1. I was going through SUP and SAP configuration documentation. I am really confused at one point. Does this SAP Netweaver PI 7.1 and SAP Netweaver Mobile 7.1 are same?. What is these DOE connector? is these DOE and SAP Netweaver Mobile 7.1are same? .
I have gone through various documents. but still i am very much confused. I am very much new to this platforms.
Can any one please help me in above topics.

Yes latest version is Netweaver mobile 7.1. and in one of the documentation of Netweaver 7.3 it is said that,
to download the non-ABAP software that is relevant for SAP NetWeaver Mobile 7.3.
http://service.sap.com/swdc --> Downloads --> Support Packages and Patches --> Support Packages and Patched u2014 Entry by Application Group --> SAP NetWeaver and complementary products --> SAP NETWEAVER MOBILE --> SAP NETWEAVER MOBILE 7.3 --> Entry by Component --> Mobile Client --> NW MOBILE CLIENT SETUP 7.3 .
Actually my problem is, I am unable to get DOE Setup.exe file. I am able to download only .SAR file. If i configure SUP with SAP Netweaver mobile 7.1. i need to install DOE seperatly.
In one of the forum, it is said that
if we want to use CRM mobile, we need the following landscape to deploy it (for example):
1.) ECC Backend (your CRM Backend, off course you need this)
2.) Netweaver Mobile 7.3 (This is the DOE part, including ESDMA)
3.) Sybase SUP
Well, you need to connect SUP and NWM7.1 together. To do this you need to install a DOE-Connector in Sybase. The NWM7.3 contains the counter part to DOE-C which is the ESDMA stuff. This is now included in NWM7.3. If you run still NWM7.1 you need to install that piece of connector as a separate add on.
This is where i got confused and was searching for NWM7.3.
Thanks

SAP NetWeaver 70 - Java and ABAP VMware Trial.part02.rar CRC error?

HI,
I've downloaded the file:
SAP NetWeaver 70 - Java and ABAP VMware Trial.part02.rar
of SAP NetWeaver 7.0 - Java and ABAP Trial Version on Linux - VMware Edition
four times and everytime a get a CRC error in the RAR file. Is the file wrong or the download incorrect?
Regards, Edwin Slee

Hi Henry.
Ive downloaded the file again. Now it is called:
SAP NetWeaver 70 - Java and ABAP VMware Trial.part02.tgz
But it is a RAR file.
As you suggested I open the file with WINRAR 3.61 and select
Tools -> repair archive
In the directory a file:is created with the name:
rebuilt.SAP NetWeaver 70 - Java and ABAP VMware Trial.part02.tgz
The WINRAR message box reads:
Detecting archive type...
---> RAR
Build fixed.SAP NetWeaver 70 - Java and ABAP VMware Trial.part02.tgz
Searching for recovery record
---> recovery record not found
Build rebuilt.SAP NetWeaver 70 - Java and ABAP VMware Trial.part02.tgz

Found SLES10SP1_Test_Drive(2)-s004.vmdk
Found SLES10SP1_Test_Drive(2)-s005.vmdk
When I open this file with WINRAR again a try to extract
SLES10SP1_Test_drive(2)-s003.vmdk I still get a CRC error, the archive file is corrupted.
I think the error isnt due to the download, because Ive downloaded the file using three different internet connections (8 times now) and all the files are identical, with a CRC error !

Any landscape recommendations for 2004s BI & SEM-BCS 6.0 ?

Hi,
in addition to our ERP 2005 we plan to set up a separate central BI 7.0 for following integrated NW2004s scenarios:
- Enterprise wide central reporting, query and analysis.
- BI Integrated Planning (successor of SEM-BPS).
- SEM-BCS 6.0.
<u>Question:</u>
Should the BCS be installed on a separate system, because of patch interdependencies with the central BI?
If yes, does BCS still need its own local BI, or can it run remotely with the central BI (like the old BW-BPS)?
Similar sap recommendations exist only for SEM-BPS, which we won't use in favor of BI Integrated Planning.
I searched the whole sap.marketplace for this, in vain.
The installations and combination-possibilities are beautifully explained, but no official recommendations about what should all be put on one central BI and what should be better kept apart.
Rumors say you should keep SEM out of your central BI and give it its own BI, to avoid painful patch/release dependencies.
What about the "single point of truth"-conecept in one central BI then?
Thank's for any hints ...
Robert

Hi Eugene,
thanks for your callback. Here an example:
Say, you need a BI-Patch (urgent bug-fix) or may be a BI-Upgrade to be able to use new functionalities for your Enterprise wide central reporting, query and analysis (since you don't use the BI only for BCS).
So, you would have to wait, until the same is also available for SEM-BCS, as it it tightly coupled to the BI (e.g. direct writing to transactional cubes, query via virtual cube augmented with data at query-runtime).
Notes like 727776 and 317339 just make me suspicious.
A similar SAP Help-hint is only available for BW-BPS (but we will use BI integrated Planning)
http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_02/helpdata/en/44/584041b02e4c0de10000000a1550b0/content.htm
Since more and more SAP-Applications need a BI, i am desperately missing a comprehensive overview, which of them should not be placed in the same BI for technical reasons (e.g. one sap-note says Bank-Analyzer and SEM-BCS should not be on the same BI).

Robert

SEM BCS - Error in Consolidation Area

Dear Experts,
When i save my consolidation area, there is an error message.
it is "Syntax error in GP_ERR_UCDTYPE, row 8.880".
The Diagnosis said "Component called REFYEAR already exists".
I can not found "REFYEAR" in my system.
I am using info cube 0BCS_C11.
Please help....
Thanks in advance.

Hello
Though I am not an expert in this area I have found the following information with a similar problem in another customer that maybe useful:
"On the basis of your problem description it seems that you assigned in
the data basis maintenance the `SEM-BCS info-object catalogue` for
characteristics and key figures to the two info-object catalogues (on
the first tab strip of data basis maintenance). This makes the trouble.
Please read the F1 help carefully and if you need an extra info-object
catalogue, then please create one. Please note that the SEM-BCS standard
info-object catalogues are NOT appropriate for this purpose.
F1 help:
"InfoObject Catalog for Characteristics
InfoObject catalog of the SAP Business Information Warehouse to include
additional characteristics.
Use
You use this field as follows:
In a data basis, the InfoObject catalog contains the quantity of
additional fields that can be selected on the Additional Financial Data
tab page for investments and equity.
In a source data basis, the InfoObject catalog portrays the definition
of an external field catalog, which can be used in a method of the
category Flexible Upload, if a data basis was allocated to the source
data basis."
In order to remove the info-object catalogs you can use the transaction
UCWB01.
Hope it helps .
