811 Centralized Management in Retail

Hi, I am looking for a Centralized Management solution for the 881 in a retail environment. Please confirm 811 comes with GUI for management on an individual basis, also what is an entry level solution for managing all 881s through a centralized single view. Thanks .

Hello Björn,
SAP Workforce Management for Retail is a labor scheduling application intended for retailers to schedule their resources within the store locations. A forecast and demand are calculated based off of historical sales and transactional data to ensure the accurate number of resources are scheduled based on a trended forecast. A schedule is optimized to the workload demand based on employee work rules, availability, and various calculation rules. iTime Clock captures actual punches through a browser-based clock. Additional information can be found on SAP WFM in the Wiki under SAP for Retail -> Shopper Experience.
Regards,
Karen

Cannot delete users from the Central Management Console

I cannot delete users from the Central Management Console. I'm logged in to Enterprise as administrator but still get the following error:
There was an error while writing data back to the server: Sorry, you do not have the right to 'Delete objects' (id - 22) for 'koberg' (id - 725415). Please contact your system or permissions administrator if you require this right.
Thanks in advance for any help on this matter.

Oops, my mistake, sorry. Ok, so the Administrator cannot delete user koberg.
Check top level:
Logon to CMC, browse to Home > Settings and select the Rights tab. These are your top level settings. Factory default will show only Administrators and Everyone. Select the Net Access "Advanced" for the Administrators group. NB: Do not select these group names links - they will jump you out of the top level! On the Advanced rights page, ensure the right to "Delete objects" is explicitly granted.
Then set for the Users top level folder:
In the CMC, browse to Home, and select Users. Select the "Rights" button. Again - NB: Do not select these group names links - they will jump you out of the Users top level folder! Set the Administrators group to "Full Control". Save.
That should be all you need. However, there is a possibility the previous admin was busy setting security not only at the account level, but on groups so we need to verify the user:
In the CMC, browse to Home, and select Users. In the User list, select koberg. In the koberg account page, select the Rights tab. If the Administrators is not set to (Inherited Rights), make it so, and when you select the "Update" button, you should see the Net Access update to "Full Control". If this is the case, you should follow these steps on each account and accomplish this.
And if you still can't delete it, verify the groups:
In the CMC, browse to Home, and select Users. In the User list, select koberg. In the koberg account page, select the "Member of" tab. Note all groups koberg is a member of. Then in the CMC, browse to Home, and select Groups. Select the name hyperlink for the group(s) that koberg belongs to. On the group page, select the Rights tab, and ensure the Administrators have (Inherited Rights) - Full Control on all of these, also. If not, set it.
Finally, I know you inherited this, but let's overview some basics of simplifying your deployment administration. Follow these guidelines, and your administration life will be so much easier.
1. The Everyone group should never have any subgroups. Ever. All accounts on the system are a member of the Everyone group. Adding subgroups to the Everyone group is redundant.
2. For simplicity's sake, Application level access should be set on the Adminstrators Group, and the Everyone group. I know there are customers who add groups to application rights. I don't understand why users would have an account on the system if they are not allowed access to InfoView, but it's your system.
3. From a report object perspective, the Everyone group should be set at the top level to "No Access". This will result in them having no rights on anything at all. You break this inheritance at the application level to give them access to InfoView and other apps. On folders and objects, you ADD groups, then assign (ADD) rights as desired.
4. If you can help it, never explicitly deny a right to any user or group for any object or application. Explicitly deny overrides any other setting. If a user belongs to group A and group B, and group A is explicitly denied a right, you can explicitly grant it for group B or the user all day long, and it will still be denied. Always try to put yourself in the position of adding groups/users, and adding rights, then inheriting as far down the folder tree as you can.

How to load a new version in Central Management Console

HI I am new to Central Management Console and need to replace a program there with the new version.
i am not seeing how this is done.
i have gone there and located the current report. but i don't see where you replace it.

Hope you have already got know on how to add new programs to CMC. (CMC->Folders->Manage->Add->Program file->Browse and select the program)
To replace...
If you are using SAP BO XI R3.x, you can use "Import wizard" or LCM for replacing \ overwriting the existing version of any objects (Programs, Crystal, webi reports etc..,) from one environment to another (Dev-QA, QA-UAT, UAT-Prod).
If you are using SAP BI 4.x, you can use Promotion Management which is integrated within the CMC to replace or overwrite the existing version of any objects from one environemnt to another.
To know more about using Import Wizard - http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-20523
To know more about LCM or Promotion Management - http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/boexir31/en/xi31_LCM_User_en.pdf
Note: If you are using LCM in R3.x or Promotion Management in BI 4.x, you can also utilize the "Version management" to manage your versions to keep track off.

There was an error while retrieving the universes from the CMS (Central Management Server). (PS 20003)

Hi there,
When I'm trying to manage spaces in SAP Business Objects Explorer 4.1 SP04, I'm getting the following error:
Failed to retrieve the data source list.
There was an error while retrieving the universes from the CMS (Central Management Server). (PS 20003)
For input string: "false"
I've already restart Explorer servers (Explorer Exploration Server, Explorer Indexing Server, Explorer Master Server and Explorer Search Server) and rebooted the server where Explorer is installed.
Nothing seems to fix this error message. I'm not able to create new spaces because I cant access the sources:
I'd appreciate some help !
Thanks in advance

HI Pavan,
Admin is on the Administrators Group, which as Full Control on the Explorer Application
I think this worked on the day the Explorer was installed (past week).
Since them never worked.

XI 3.0 Installation Problem: no central managment server running

Hi, I am totally new to BO our company just purchased the application and I have installed XI 3.0 on one of our server. I have setup the DB and the installation finished successfully. However I can't find CMS anywhere on the server. It seems like all the other XI 3.0 components are there Business view manager, central configuration manager, etc. they are all in the program list.
The only thing I didn't install is Tomcat. In Central configuration Manager ther Server Intelligence Agent is running. When I try to connect to the server in Business view Manager I receive the following error "The system servername cannot be contacted, but there is no Central Managment Server running at port 6400."
During the installation for "Web Application Server" part I checked the "other" option since I want to use IIS. I have a feeling I need to do some type of post configuration for IIS? Where do I perform this?
Our setup is:
Window Server 2003 SP2 with all the latest window updates
The latest XI 3.0 (I downloaded it from the product page)
My questions are:
1. Does XI work with IIS at all?
2. Do I need to install Tomcat and run some kind of connector to have IIS work?
3. What am I missing for my XI 3.0 it seem the core component is missing (CS)?
Edited by: Amy Williams on Sep 24, 2008 11:18 AM
Moved from Xcelsius forum to BOE Administration

Hi Allan,
In answer to your questions - XI 3.0 does not have an IIS interface right now. You will need to install a java application components in order to access the end user interface for viewing reports (InfoView), the report viewers, the web services and SDKs and the management console (CMC). The easiest way to do this is to choose the default Tomcat components in the installation and work from there.
If you left everything else as default, then you will have all the necessary application components installed to get the system up and running. It may just be that your CMS has not started for some reason. Try stopping and restarting the Server Intelligence Agent (SIA) in the Central Config Manager (CCM) - found in the Start/Programs/Business Objects group.
Once started, try clicking on the "Manage Servers" icon of the CCM (the one with a server and a check mark on it). This should allow you connect to the system and see which servers have started. IF you cannot connect, the next step would be to check the windows Event Log. See if the CMS service started OK. If it didn't the log should provide you with more information, which you can post here for further assistance.
If it did, and you still cannot connect, you may need to review your network firewall settings and/or your DEP status (see the properties panel for My Computer, choose the Advanced tab, select the Performance settings button, then the Data Execution Prevention tab).
Happy hunting.
Derek.

Loyalty Management for Retail

Hi,
My company is implementing SAP Loyalty Management which is a part of SAP CRM. If anyone has worked on implementing Loyalty Management for a retail customer please provide some inputs.
Does any one have best practice documents for Loyalty Management.
Thanks
Barry

Hi Barry,
you're right. SAP is coming up with a new tool called SAP Promotion Management for Retail. Basically, the tool provides a solution for the planning of promotions including the creation of a flyer.
SAP Promotion Management is a separate solution with interfaces to SAP ERP to get Master Data from the ERP System and to create promotions after the promotion planning is finished. If I remember correctly, the interfaces are provides with EHP4.
Please have a look at ...
... this SAP Webcast: http://www.sap.com/community/events/2009_06_17_EPM/index.epx
... this factsheet: http://download.sap.com/industries/retail/midsize/downloads/download.epd?context=A788E4F40C85F9BEEF3C9C3E64F4899677839217595FB6BAE61B0C65DE03AF28EC3BCFFD37D85DD65720301E0924311451B1417E80B3675B
Also, there is a german documentation, unfortunately, I didn't find the english one... sorry, for this: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_pmr70/helpdata/de/82/FC25B90C244E47878B3EA0BE970F88/frameset.htm
Maybe someone from the SAP people here can provide you some addtitional information.

Failed Job Query on Central Management Registered Servers - Host Server is not included in results

The following standard query works great for showing failed jobs on servers. Executing this in Central Management Registered Servers works as expected, but the Host Server results are not listed, and the same query needs to be executed against the host server
too.
e.g.
Registered Servers are defined on Server A
Results are displayed from servers B, C, D & E - but results are not displayed for Server A.
How do we receive results from Server A without having to execute a separate query ?
DECLARE @PreviousDate datetime
DECLARE @Year VARCHAR(4)
DECLARE @Month VARCHAR(2)
DECLARE @MonthPre VARCHAR(2)
DECLARE @Day VARCHAR(2)
DECLARE @DayPre VARCHAR(2)
DECLARE @FinalDate INT
-- Initialize Variables
SET @PreviousDate = DATEADD(dd, -7, GETDATE()) -- Last 7 days
SET @Year = DATEPART(yyyy, @PreviousDate)
SELECT @MonthPre = CONVERT(VARCHAR(2), DATEPART(mm, @PreviousDate))
SELECT @Month = RIGHT(CONVERT(VARCHAR, (@MonthPre + 1000000000)),2)
SELECT @DayPre = CONVERT(VARCHAR(2), DATEPART(dd, @PreviousDate))
SELECT @Day = RIGHT(CONVERT(VARCHAR, (@DayPre + 1000000000)),2)
SET @FinalDate = CAST(@Year + @Month + @Day AS INT)
-- Final Logic
SELECT j.[name],

h.message,
h.server

INNER JOIN msdb.dbo.sysjobs j
ON h.job_id = j.job_id
INNER JOIN msdb.dbo.sysjobsteps s
ON j.job_id = s.job_id
AND h.step_id = s.step_id
WHERE h.run_status = 0 -- Failure

Hi vsla,
According to your description, I do a test. When I designate a Central Management Servers and create server groups, then execute statements against
multiple configuration targets simultaneously, it
indeed only contains the results of server groups, you need to execute again on the host server (Central Management Servers) then display the results of Central Management Servers, because the Central Management Server cannot be a member
of a group that it maintains.
If you want to get all servers results by executing the statement one time. I recommend you use Local Server Groups, create new register server and add all servers to the Local Server Groups, then right click “new query
“, execute the statements, it will display all results about all servers. There are more details about administering multiple servers using Central Management Servers, you can review the following article.http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb895144

How can I enable GUI in WAAS Stand By Central Manager

Hi guys,
I'm testing the stand by central manager, the situation is as follows:
When the active central manager goes down I try to access the GUI in stand by central manager but it always sends me the following error
Graphical user interface is not enabled in this standby CM.
Please close this window and go to the Primary CM.
So I think that I have to enable anything but I don't know what, can anybody help me?
Thanks in advance!
Lenin

Currently the switch to a standby CM requires manual intervention.
The benefit of the Central Manager is that it provides configuration management, device management (software upgrades, etc.), reporting, and security services from a single, central location. Note that the security services, such as disk encryption keys, SSL certificates, etc., are available from the Standby CM (in the event that the Primary CM is unavailable) without the need to promote the Standby to Primary.

Zach

Can I create a report at WAAS central manager based on server IP address

Hi,
I have two distinct applications running at port 8080 for which I would like to have separated performance reports at Central Manager. Is there any mean to do that by using server ip address for example? If so how? Do I need to change policy? If so is that the only way?
Thanks
Wilhelm

Hi Rulix,
The latest version of CR Server is 2008. Therefore I'm assuming you are using CR Server 2008.
New in CR 2008 is the .NET report modification software development kit (SDK). The report application server (RAS) SDK is now available for users of Crystal Reports .NET API without the use of a RAS server. Report modification such as changing, adding, or removing database providers, or adding, removing, or creating report objects, parameters, formulas, and sections can be achieved by accessing the RAS SDK through the Crystal Reports .NET SDK.
Java developers however receive the JRC and Java SDK documentation through the free Crystal Reports for Eclipse download. This product will be updated on a separate schedule from Crystal Reports.
Further Information and samples are available in our [Developer Library|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/businessobjects?rid=/webcontent/uuid/5001d5de-f867-2b10-00bf-8d27683c85a0]
Kind regards,
Tim

Issue With Business Objects Installation-STW00213 The Central Management Server has failed to start.

Hi,
I am in the process of installing Business Objects XI 3.1 in one of our server. While installing I am getting the error 'The Central Management Server has failed to start. Press 'retry' to attempt to start it again or 'cancel' to skip any actions dependendent on the Central Management Server. STW00213.'
I have tried re-installing the BO, and also tried installing without giving admin password. But it doesn't work. And also I ahve tried giving the passwords of database and CMS Admin without Sepcia Characters. But it also doesn't work.
If I cancel and install the BO, Server Intelligence Agent is not available in Central Management Server.
Could anyone help on this issue?
Thanks
Prakadesh

Hi Prakadesh,
Try these steps.
1. Stop and disable the service of current SIA. You can do it from start-->run services.msc. Double click the SIA service and change the status to disable.
2. Login into sqlplus and drop all the CMS tables.
3. Create a new SIA pointing to Oracle from the CCM.
4. Start the new SIA and check if all services come up and you are able to login into Manager servers.
If this does not work, check the event viewer for error messages.

Is it mandatory to have Central Manager (CM)

Dear All,
We are planning to have WAAS solution in our corporate. It is a small setup with 3 sites. We are thinking of using the SRE module in the WAN routers. While going through the documentations a need for additional Central Manager is mentioned. Just wonder is it really required to have it considering a small setup?
Regards,
Anoop

hello Anoop,
It depends on what type of optimization you will require at the small site, for example I am confident that HTTP content, video streaming, basic transport and enterprise license optimizations should still work without a CM ( I have never done a lab without a CM so I am speaking from my experience)
Please keep in mind that a WAAS system without a CM is not supported!! in addition it will be very difficult to troubleshooting anything without the CM anyways.
The CM performs the role of a centralized point of configuration for multiple WAE's even if they are just 2 or 3 WAE's it is still as important as it is for a big deployment.
Without a CM, you won't be able to take advantage of CIFS prepositioning, SSL key management, or secure store (WAE disk encryption) and you won't be able to use the nice graphical reporting charts that WAAS CM provides ( to see what exactly is WAAS doing on your network from your small office to your data center or wherever the traffic is going to)
in regards Virtual WAAS ( as refered on the previous comment ) you might want to take a look at the following links:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps11231/index.html
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/app_ntwk_services/waas/waas/v431/vwaas/guide/vwaasguide.html
good luck!

Viewing Current Users/Sessions Logged onto CMS (Central Management Server)

Post Author: Alanimal
CA Forum: Data Integration
Hi Guys,
When you use the Central Management Console, click on HOME>SERVERS>CMS:(SERVERNAME) - Under the properties for the Central Management Console you can view who is actually logged into the CMS.
How can I create a query in the Query builder that can show me the same data? I am trying to create a web page that will show me only the current logged in users.
Is this possible?
Cheers
Alan

OK There are a lot of errors in the Log file which relate to writing to the install path and as per below.

Https certificate on WAAS Central Manager

Hi,
I wanting to know if it is possible to authenticate the WAAS central manager with a different certificate/key pair than the self-signed certificate/key pair.
I can't find any information about installing my own certificate/key pair.
Thanks in advance

We do have an option for the same:
First you may generate a CSR using:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/app_ntwk_services/waas/waas/v531/command/reference/execmds.html#wp2773266
Once done you can get the cert and import cert and keys on Central Manager using admin option
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/app_ntwk_services/waas/waas/v531/command/reference/execmds.html#wp2773369
"admin"
Specifies that the certificate and key are for the Central Manager admin service. This option can be used only on the Central Manager.
The Central Manager admin service uses a self-signed certificate and key by default. You can use the crypto import pkcs12 admin command to import a custom certificate and key in PKCS12 or PEM format. If you delete the custom certificate and key, the self-signed certificate and key again become active.
Hope this helps,
Swati
