What is Data services in Business Objects

Hi Folks,
Can I know What is Data services and
Where we can consider usage or need for this tool.

Hi,
Data Services consists of Data Quality and Data Intergrator that'll help in gathering, clensing and loading data from multple data sources into a single datawarehouse. Reporting and analysis for BI purpose can then be done on the final datawarehouse.
Please find Data Services product guides and documents at [http://help.sap.com/content/bobj/bobj/index.htm]

Akhil, from 3rd link it looks like that this MDS( master data services) is same as MDM just the thing to be noticed is MDS term is used with SOA and MDM is an independent tool to provide MDS.

SAP to Data Services System (Business Objects)

Hi,
Currently there is an RFC connection between Data Services and R/3 which exchange three idocs. Each idoc has an volume of 30k per day.
As we are trying to introduce PI as central broker, will it be recommended to bring PI into the scope thinking on the performance head.
As this would be simple idoc to idoc conversion, let me know the things that will help to reduce the performance overhead.
Also should i be using RFC adapter between PI and Data Services.
Also since the licensing model is based on CPU, what effect will it bring with these three interfaces?
Is there any other connectivity that we can try apart from simple RFC

Hi,
>>>Do you mean to say with dual stack, Idoc adapter is available both in ABAP as well JAVA.
yes you can use any of the two
but if you want to use ICO you can only use IDOC_AAE (java stack idoc adapter)
>>>I thought idoc adapter would present in Java stack when you go for java stand alone installation only.
no, with dual you also get it
>>>>That would solve my volume issues. What is the best way to find the size of an idoc?
send it via PI or easier and without PI - send it to an XML port (but this will give you the XML idoc size)

Data federator in business objects

Hi,
What is the use of data federator in business objects.
Regards,
G

HI,
The only option in this case is to 1) use Business Objects' Data Federator to bring XYZ data and BW (new) data together, 2) creating a relational universe, and 3) creating Crystal / WEBI reports using the relational universe; see Picture 1.
>> You can also combine the data by using a MultiProvider in BW which is access the data in BW and the data in the legacy system and an additional alternative is to move all the data into BW.
After 20 years goes by, and we no longer need to report on data housed in XYZ anymore, the environment will be turned off.
1) When this happens, wouldn't we want to remove Data Federator and the relational universe from the scenario ?
>> That depends on the approach you took

What are the DATAPROVIDERS in Business Objects 6.5?

What are the DATAPROVIDERS in Business Objects 6.5? When we use these data providers/

Kishore,
"Data Providers" is a term used to designate a concept of the "source(s)" for the report. For instance, if you have a report that has a single query and in your report you have one (or n1) tab(s), then your report is a single data provider type of report. Note that you can have multiple tabs with the data being displayed multiple ways, etc, etc, but since you have a single query, the report is still a single data provider. Another scenario is that you have more than a single query (n1 query panels), then you have a report with multiple data providers. Only upon inspecting the query panel side of the report can you determine the number of actual data providers. You can have a single tabbed report with multiple data providers, or you can have a multiple tabbed report, but the point is that data providers are counted by the number of query panels being used and not necessarily the number of tabs. I hope this explanation is clear, but if any questions arise, please post back.
Thanks,
John

What are the features of Business object.

Hi Experts,
Can any please give me brief idea about Business object which one will going implent into BI . and what are the features of Business object.
i will assign points if it is helpfull.
Regards
venu.

Hi,
Bussiness Object is the reporting tool of datawarehouse.BI is itself a data ware house.The next generation SAP BI will be using BO as reporting tool instead of BeX.BO is a Reporting tool. Presently we are using BI BEX tool for reporting. slowly BI BEX tool is replacing by BO.Use Netveawer and SAP BW for the Backend and Master data management or Use Data Integartor. For Front End Use BEX tools for QR$A or use the BO Suite.BO has many advantages over BEX tool like using BO we can creat crystal reports ets.
Pls chk this links for detailed information abt Business Object:

What is data services?

I see this in my options, "Data Services: On." What are data services? Do I need it on all the time? Does it waste battery?

Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
To use the proprietary BB/RIM services, you must have an adequate data plan from your carrier. The carriers host BIS (BlackBerry Internet Service) for their BB users. Typically, BIS is not available via generic data plans. Many carriers call what is necessary The Blackberry Data Plan. Whatever they call it, it is the carrier who delivers BIS to their BB users -- contact them for assistance. Once you have a BIS-capable data plan on your BB (at whatever fees your carrier will charge, btw), you will then have access to whatever level of services you subscribe to from your carrier.

Application Services uses other application Services like business Object

Hallo
I use the SAP NetWeaver 7.1 SP3.
One question can i use in the Applcation Service another Application Service (not Business Object)?
The reasons I want to have this possibility:
If I use the external service and I will be exposed as a new Applicaiton Service, thus it can be used by several application Services.
I have put one Application Service A into the dependency of Application Service B... but in code i can not find out the API to lauch to the Application B.
Thanks and Kind Regards
Ping

Thanks
But I can not find the Object ApplicationServiceALocal
and the code
ApplicationServiceALocal appServiceA = this.getApplicationServiceA();
I can not get it.
Maybe I should after the add dependency Generate Application, buîld Application?
Kind Regards

Business Objects Data Service notify Busienss Objects Reporting ?

Hi,
Do you see me if it's possible to notify Business Objects reporting when the Business Objects Data Services has finishing these jobs ?
It's a standard integration or customization in your side ?
Thanks for your help
Gilles

We had to customize it by putting in script code, at the end of the job, that updates a table with the job name time it started and time it completed. This table is then cross-referenced with the Universes and finally reports that it involves. The end users logon to a JSP page that we created that allows them to search by report name to determine if all jobs related to the report have completed. If even just one job is in progress or hasn't started, it shows the report as not being avaialble for execution.

SAPBI data accessing from Business objects and other OLAP tools

Hi,
We already have heavy usage of Business Object, Essbase and are planning to implement SAPBI 7.0
    a) We are planning to connect our existing Business
        Objects infrastructure onto the new SAPBI platform, Did
        You experience any issues such as performance,
        config issues, delays, web issues.. is there any
        document or link with steps involved in integrating
        Business objects and SAPBI
     b) Can Bex analyzer gives simliar functionalities that
        are in Essabse front- end (EXCEL), I know that the
        backend data managament is quite different, but my
        question is around user interface, do you have any
        comparisons between these two tools.
     c) Is it possible to get data from SAPBI using external
        reporting tools (OLAP) such as Oracle Discoverer ...
Regards,
Raman

if the export to XML file is successful, the file will not be deleted if you are creating it from Metadata Exchange.
The file gets deleted in case you are using the create universe option and by default the file is created in %LINK_DIR%\log\MetadataExchange, you will also see ME_errorlog.txt and ME_outputlog.txt if there are any errors, do you see and erros in these files if you are creating the Universe directly from DS Designer ?
to use Metadata Exchange do the following
Open Data Services Desginer
Click on tools Menu -> Metadata Exchange
In the Metadata Exchange window
Select Export Data Services metadata to a file
Select DI CWM as metadata format
enter location for xml file (C:\temp)
Select the datastore you want to create Universe for
Click OK
Check for file named repo_export.xml in the C:\temp folder or the folder that you specified
Open Universe Builder and Select
Data Integrator bridge
and use the xml file as input to create universe

Changing the Data source in Business Objects XI

Hi,
Is it possible to change the data source(not universe) in runtime to generate business objects reports. I am using BOXI 3.1.
Below is the code I am using to change the universe in runtime. I would like to change this so that i can change the data source instead of changing the universe. My intention is to generate report from multipple database using same universe. Right now I am using multipple universes connected to multiple datasources to achieve this. I am using Report Engine SDK(Java).
           if("Webi".equals(mDocKind))
               // Added for multiple database support
               DataProviders dataProvs = documentInstance.getDataProviders();
            try{
                //To support multiple queries in BO reports
             for(int count=0;count<dataProvs.getCount(); count++){
               DataProvider dp=dataProvs.getItem(count);
               DataSource ds= dp.getDataSource();
               infoUniverseObjects = getUniverseObject(infoStore,NewUniverseName);
               infoUniverseObject = (IInfoObject)infoUniverseObjects.get(0);
               String newDsCuid = infoUniverseObject.getCUID();
               dataProvs.changeDataSource(ds.getID(), "UnivCUID=" + newDsCuid, true);
               if(dataProvs.mustFillChangeDataSourceMapping())
                    // Re-map data source to target Universe objects
                    ChangeDataSourceMapping mapping = dataProvs.getChangeDataSourceMapping();
                    ChangeDataSourceObjectMapping[] maps = mapping.getAllMappings();
                    dataProvs.setChangeDataSourceMapping();
                }//for dataProvs.getCount()
            }catch(Exception e)
                  mLogger.info("BOReportObject","createReport","Inside multiple data providers loop"+e.getMessage());
Thanks in advance
Shameer
Edited by: Shameertaj on May 20, 2009 3:08 AM

Hi Shameer,
I think this is only possible with the Universe Designer SDK (which is only available in COM).
Please kindly refer to the API reference for the Universe Designer SDK for more details:
http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/boexir31/en/bodessdk.chm
Also, please note that changing the universe connection when viewing a document on-demand is not recommended because this could lead to possible issues.
For example:
Two users trying to view documents that uses the same universe at approximately the same time.
But user A wants to use connection X and user B wants to use connection Y.
This could lead to an error while openning the document or while refreshing/retrieving the the data.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Dan

What is the role of Business Objects in BPC

Dear Experts,
A quick question. Why has SAP changed expanded form of BPC - from Business Planning & Consolidation to Businessobjects Planning and Consolidation. Is this just a re-branding excercise or is BPC using Business Objects components for reporting?
As far as I understand, after watching demos on Businessobjects Planning and Consolidation, I dont see any business objects interface?
Can anyone please help me in understanding this right?
Regards
Rupa

Hi,
When you take BPC alone into consideration then their is no much difference with the interface. They have changed name from BPC to SAP Buisness Objects Planning and Consolidation, version for SAP NetWeaver. With the next versions they have integrated few of the Business Objects tools like Xcelsius, Voyager, WebI, Crystal, BOBJ CMS and SSO etc. With the integration of these tools you can display or report the BPC data in these tools like for e.g. you can report on BPC data in Xcelsius etc. So this is the reason why they have given the new name to BPC. I would say functionality wise , yes their are many improvements in the upcoming version.
I hope this helps.

Sushma
