Adding object to CMC - Prompted for DB pw

We have setup CR2008 and I am testing to add a new report object. I can run the report but am being prompted for the DB logon. I would like to automatically use the db pw used in the report. When I try to modify it in the CMC the Process tab is grayed out so I can set the database location.
What am is missing? We just completed this yesterday and I would like to test reports.
Thanks.

Hi,
Can you please make sure that you are right clicking on the report in CMC. There will lot of options when you right click over the report, in those there will be Database configuration go there and please follow the steps i suggested in previous post.
Go to Folders in CMC AND GO to the folder where your report is saved and there right click over the report.
Thanks,
SK.

Hi Kamil,
I'm guessing you are talking about encountering these issues post MLR# 7 patch.
Here are some of the things ypu could start off with:
1. Check your LS Inventory to see if your patch was applied successfully
2. Ensure that all the post installation steps were performed (in the readme file)
3. You could rollback this patch and check if you are still getting the same error.
4. After rollback, if your config works fine, rerapply the patch again and observe the effects.
Thanks & Regards,

ADF panel does not prompt for variable defined in ADF view object.

I have created an ADF Panel, which allows the user to run a few simple queries against an Oracle database done using ADF view objects and ADF view links and ADF application module.
One of these queries lookup detail information about a given database object (Table, view or whatever) from dba_objects. The SQL uses a parameter (:P_OBJ_NAME) that has a default value of “Departments”. If I run the ADF application module by itself outside of the ADF panel, all works fine, it prompts me to provide a value for the parameter :P_OBJ_NAME.
As I said the panel contains the different ADF view links including the one that should prompt the user to provide a value for :P_OBJ_NAME. When I run the panel it does not prompt me for :P_OBJ_NAME, it just uses the default defined value “departments”.
I hope I described my problem for every one to understand. The question obviously is how do I get the ADF panel to prompt the user to provide a value for parameter :P_OBJ_NAME, my expectation was that since the sql in the view object and the application module both are designed to prompt for a value for this parameter then the panel should do just that but it does not.
You expert input would be most appreciated.
Thanks.
Bobby A.

The prompting for a parameter is a feature we built into the ADF Tester - it is not a default behavior you get in your application when you just place a VO on your page.
To get something like this expend the operations node under the VO in the data control palette, and drag the "Execute with parameters" operation to your page to drop it as a parameter form.
This will provide your user a place to fill out the parameter and press a button to execute the query.

Report Preview in CMC keeps prompting for parameters ...

Dear Experts, I am trying to see the preview of a report in CMC (CMC -> Folders -> Browse to the report and then click on review). It prompts for parameters and I enter the parameters. The report shows the result but then prompts for the parameters again. I check the same report in Dev and QA and they work. All these systems have same configuration, same version of IE and same settings. I check them all. Kindly point out if I'm missing something. I appreciate any help.

Hi
what exactly do you mean by:
The report shows the result but then prompts for the parameters again
Is your report shown and after X seconds it prompts again for the parameters automatically?

Activate standard badi - prompts for Object Key?

In SE19 when trying to activate an SAP delivered implementation of a badi I'm prompted for an object key for the implementation class.
fyi Running ECC6 on Basis 7 kb14.
Go to SE19
Display badi FIAA_BW_DELTA_UPDATE
Go to environment menu, choose activate.
Notice that the activate option is greyed out?
Go back and change the FIAA_BW_DELETA_UPDATE badi implementation.      Go to environment menu, choose activate. You'll be prompted for an object key for the implementing class - CL_IM_FIAA_BW_DELTA_UPDATE.
Is this correct behavior?   We don't want to change the class - just activate it.    Could I get around this by copying the class changing the implementation class to a ZCL_IM_FIAA_BW_DELTA_UPDATE?
Thanks in advance for any help on this topic.

Hi Ryan.
You need to apply an OSS note for this
Please check the extract below..it will solve the problem
check the following Notes.
Check these OSS Notes - 828240, 688477 and 590034,599896
Note Pasted below :
When you load the delta-enabled InfoSources of asset accounting, no time stamp information is updated in the OLTP system if you have selected "Simulation of the delta process initialization" (initialization without data transfer; technical mode 'S') as the update mode.
This affects the InfoSources:
1. 0ASSET_ATTR_TEXT
2. 0ASSET_AFAB_ATTR
3. 0FI_AA_11
4. 0FI_AA_12
As a result of the error, you cannot start delta extraction after the initialization without data transfer because the delta extractor does not find any time stamp information it can use.
Other terms
RSA3, BWOM2_TIMEST, delta, DeltaInit, BWFIT, 0FI_GL_4, BWFIT_GET_TIMESTAMPS, BWFIT_RESET_TIMESTAMPS, BWFIT_UPDATE_TIMESTAMPS
Reason and Prerequisites
a) The problem is caused by a program error.
b) The 'FIAA_BW_DELTA_UPDATE' BADI is not active.
Solution
For a: Implement the source code corrections to create a correct time stamp for the initialization without data transfer.
For b: For a data extraction to the BW system according to the delta method, the 'FIAA_BW_DELTA_UPDATE' BADI must be active. When assets are changed, this BADI writes the corresponding change entries which are read by the extractors to determine the delta values. If this BADI is not active, the extraction terminates with error BWFIAA 001 (BAdI implementation FIAA_BW_DELTA_UPDATE inactive in source system). During a DeltaInit extraction with data transfer, the system flags the data request as incorrect or canceled in the monitor and issues the error message. However, during the DeltaInit extraction without data transfer, the system does not issue an error in the BW system even though the extractor triggered an error message and the termination of the extraction in the OLTP system. The data request in the BW system has the status 'successful' and the user cannot see that an error has occurred. However, a time stamp is not created in these cases since the following delta extractions would cause inconsistencies because the BADI would not be able to log all changes that have occurred since the last extraction.

MII prompts for a login for every execution of a workbench object

Hi,
Is there a setting in MII 12.1.9 Build(108) somewhere, by which I can make the system not to prompt for a login for every execution of a Web object in the workbench?

Assistance with prompting for users and then adding them to a command in PowerShell

I'm trying to create a very simple script to add members to a Distribution Group. I want to do something like I added below. I would like to prompt for user1, user2, user3, etc.. until I have no more users to add instead of manually typing out
the command below. Each time there will be a different number of users to be added. I do not want to do a csv import since it creates extra work when sometimes I only need to add 2-3 users. I find using a csv works great but takes too long when
I only have a few to add. I would like a way to just keep typing user aliases until I have no more and then hit enter and have it take my entries and enter them into the command below or some other similar command. I would like everything embedded
in the ps1 file with no other files to deal with. Any help will be appreciated. Thank you in advance.
$DLName = Read-Host "Enter the name of the DL that members will be added to."
"user1","user2","user3" | Add-DistributionGroupMember -Identity $DLName

Here's another option:
$DLName = Read-Host 'Enter the name of the DL that members will be added to.'
((Read-Host 'Member List, separated by commas').Split(',')) | ForEach { Add-DistributionGroupMember -Identity $DLName -Member $_.Trim() }

Adding Object Mannully Vs. Adding Object in SU24 for Tranaction

All,
What is the diff. between Adding a missing Object Mannully in PFCG Vs. Adding Object in SU24 for Tranaction ?
What is the diff. between chaning Vaule for a missing Object Mannully in PFCG Vs. Changing a value in SU24 for a Auth Ojbect ?
Please let me know.
From
PT.

Hi PT,
There is no direct link between transactions and the auth objects assigned to them via PFCG. Things like config and the way transaction are used have an impact on how the auths are evaluated for a given transaction.
As you know, we use SU24 to update the SAP delivered values to meet the auth checks in our particular implementations or as per our requirements. What this enables us to do is to ensure that when we enter a transaction, all the relevant auth objects and where appropriate fixed values are pulled through (so if you know that different usages of that tx requires different values then add the object in SU24 but leave the relevant field blank). If you remove that transaction from the role, the auths that are also required are removed from the role too, as long as the role is not in Manual or Changed status.
If you manually add the auth object then you have no link with the transaction/s that are required to run the object. You can remove the transaction and the auth object value will remain in the role. If not properly managed, you can end up with excess auths still present in roles, particularly with the S_* objects and in areas like FI where it is very easy to skip between transactions through menu options where there is no S_TCODE check, with the auth object check being the only controlling one.
Manually entered objects definitely have their uses as long as they are properly documented and managed when maintaining roles.

Prompt for transport request if records are added/modified for custom table

Hello Experts,
A couple of questions,
1. How do we prompt user to create a TR whenever he changes a record in my custom table
via SM30? my custom table has a maintenance type of 'C' - customizing already.
2. How do we transport the custom table contents to another client?
Thank you guys and take care!

Hello
Regarding (1) just have a look at a standard maintenance view like V_T001W (SE11 -> menu Utilities -> Table Maintenance Generator ):
Here you can see that the option Standard Recording Routine is chosen which is responsible for prompting for a transport request as soon as records of the table/view are changed.

Crystal Reports prompting for creds when viewed from BO 4

The environment:
Business Objects Enterprise 4, sp2 patch 8
SAP ECC 6.0, kernel 701, sup. pkg. lvl 137
This is a new BOE 4 installation on a test system. The BOE installation has been configured to use Windows AD authentication with SSO. When I run a Crystal Report that is based on SAP ECC data, I am prompted for credentials. So I used the following document to configure BOE for SSO to DB:
http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/BOBJ/HowtosetupSSOagainstSAPBWinSBOBI4.0forLDAPusers
This didn't fix the problem. SAP ECC reports in BOE still prompt for creds when viewed. SAP Authentication is verifiably working, but I'm not sure if SSO to DB is working. One thing I've noticed is that when I log in to BOE using SAP authentication and view the report, I'm not prompted for creds. In BOE I added my Windows AD acct as an alias in my SAP acct, but I may have either done this incorrectly, or there may be something I need to do in addition.
question 1: Is there an easy way to verify if SSO to DB is working correctly?
question 2: In CMC --> Authentication --> SAP --> Entitlement Systems --> User Name, I'm assuming that this is an SAP user name. What roles/profiles does this account need? Should it be a dialog acct?
question 3: Our ECC system is configured to use SNC. Do I need to configure SNC in BOE for SSO to DB to work?
question 4: I added my Windows AD user as an alias on my SAP user record. I'm not sure this is correct... can someone verify?
Any help or suggestions are much appreciated.

Thanks, Ingo. Once I got snc configured, everything began working wonderfully.
I used this document as a guide:
https://websmp230.sap-ag.de/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/sno/ui_entry/entry.htm?param=69765F6D6F64653D3030312669765F7361706E6F7465735F6E756D6265723D3134343630363726

Report does not prompt for parameters when SeparatePages=False

Hi all. We are using CR2008 Basic w/SP1 along with VS2008. Within our application, reports pull up fine and prompt for parameters using the CrystalReportViewer against the web service. SeparatePages is set to True. We want to change SeparatePages to False, but when I do that any report that should prompt for parameters is not.
The reports were created in CR 8.5. We have upgraded them to CR2008 (open, refresh, save) which has greatly increased performance. With some further testing, I've discovered that if I take a report that doesn't currently have any parameters and add one via VS2008 report designer, it WILL prompt for the parameter when I run it in our application with SeparatePages=False.
So I'm leaning that the problem has to do with the reports originally being created in 8.5. I've tried modifying an existing report with parameters, deleting parameters and re-adding, but I still can't get these to prompt for parameters with SeparatePages=False.
Again, these same reports prompt for parms and work fine as long as SeparatePages=True. I'm hoping someone might be able to shed some light on this. There are over 400 reports so re-creating them from scratch under CR2008 will be a painful option
If I need to provide any additional information just let me know. Thank you!
Sheila

We are still working to resolve this issue. Testing has shown that for reports that don't return a lot of data, the prompt for parameters will display. But for larger reports, we just see the hour glass and the parameter prompt never displays. It's almost like the reports are trying to return the full dataset without any paramters being passed BEFORE it will prompt for parameters. This would explain why smaller reports will prompt and larger reports never will (?). Not sure that is what is happening. Again, with SeparatePages=True we are immediately given the parameter prompt. With SeparatePages=False we run into the issue of no prompts.
Here's the code behind if it help:
ReportDocument report = new ReportDocument();
try
    String rptFileName = @"App_Data\Reports\" + Request.QueryString.GetValues(0).GetValue(0).ToString();
    log.writeLog("Loading Report: " + rptFileName);
    String rptFile = Server.MapPath(rptFileName);
    report.Load(rptFile);
    report.Refresh();
    ConnectionInfo crConnectionInfo = new ConnectionInfo();
    log.writeDebugLog("ServerName : " + rProperties.ODBCSource);
    crConnectionInfo.ServerName = rProperties.ODBCSource;
    log.writeDebugLog("DatabaseName : " + rProperties.ODBCSource);
    crConnectionInfo.DatabaseName = rProperties.ODBCSource;
    log.writeDebugLog("UserID : " + rProperties.ODBCUser);
    crConnectionInfo.UserID = rProperties.ODBCUser;
    log.writeDebugLog("Password : " + rProperties.ODBCPassword);
    crConnectionInfo.Password = rProperties.ODBCPassword;
    foreach (CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.Table table in report.Database.Tables)
        TableLogOnInfo crTableLogOnInfo = new TableLogOnInfo();
        crTableLogOnInfo.ConnectionInfo = crConnectionInfo;
        table.ApplyLogOnInfo(crTableLogOnInfo);
catch (Exception err)
    log.writeLog("Error Loading Report: " + err.ToString());
    this.lblError.Text = err.ToString();
    this.ErrorTable.Visible = true;
    this.ReportTable.Visible = false;
    return;

Crystal Report Viewer Credential Prompt for Report with Dynamic Parameters

The .NET Crystal Report Viewer is prompting for database credentials when launching a report containing dynamic parameters. This only occurs for reports created with SAP Crystal Reports 2011 designer. Reports created with Crystal Reports XI designer (where dynamic parameters were first introduced) work correctly.
The credential prompt window contains the following fields:
- Server Name: <server name> (disabled)
- Database Name: <database name> (disabled)
- User Name: <empty> (enabled)
- Password: <empty> (enabled)
- Use Single Signon Key: false (disabled)
The values in the prompt window which are disabled are the database connection values used during the design of the report in the SAP Crystal Reports 2011 designer.
Expected Result:
- No prompt for database credentials.
- Values read from the database should be populated in a drop down for the dynamic parameters.
Environment:
- Visual Studio 2010 (C#)
- Windows 7 Enterprise
- SAP Crystal Reports runtime engine for .NET Framework 4
- SAP Crystal Reports, version for Visual Studio 2010
- SAP Crystal Reports 2011
The database connection is being set to use a DSN. It must be a DSN as the calling application is only aware of the DSN/Username/Password values. These values are being passed to the Crystal Report Viewer contained in a Windows form.
The database connection for the report is being set as follows:
foreach (InternalConnectionInfo internalConnectionInfo in this.report.DataSourceConnections)
    // Must set the UseDSNProperties flag to True before setting the database connection otherwise the connection does not work
    if (internalConnectionInfo.LogonProperties.ContainsKey("UseDSNProperties"))
        internalConnectionInfo.LogonProperties.Set("UseDSNProperties", true);
    // Supposed to set the database connection for all objects in the report (ie. main report, tables, sub reports)
    internalConnectionInfo.SetConnection(this.DSN, string.Empty, this.LoginName, this.Password);
The SetConnection method's signature is as follows:
   SetConnection(string server, string database, string name, string password)
As you can see from the code snippet above I am setting the DSN name as the server parameter, blank for the database parameter (a database connection using DSN should only require DSN name/Username/Password) and the database username and password respectively.
Is this a SAP bug?
Is this the correct way of setting the database connection to use a DSN?
Is there some other properties that need to be set somewhere else in the report through code?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the pointer to the database connection code generator. After taking a look at the output from the tool I was able to finally get the dynamic parameters to load and populate properly without prompting for credentials. I needed to tweak the outputted code a bit to match my requirements of using a DSN only connection.
Instead of updating the database connection properties contained within the Report.Database.Tables collection from the CrystalReports.Engine namespace, I changed it to replace the database connection properties in the Report.ReportClientDocument.DatabaseController.Database.Tables collection from the CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.DataDefModel namespace. For one reason or another, using the RAS namespace solved the problem.
Below is the updated code with the change made:
using RAPTable = CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.DataDefModel.Table;
foreach (InternalConnectionInfo internalConnectionInfo in this.report.DataSourceConnections)
    // Must set the UseDSNProperties flag to True before setting the database connection
    if (internalConnectionInfo.LogonProperties.ContainsKey("UseDSNProperties"))
        internalConnectionInfo.LogonProperties.Set("UseDSNProperties", true);
    // Sets the database connection for all objects in the report (ie. main report, tables, sub reports)
    internalConnectionInfo.SetConnection(this.DSN, string.Empty, this.LoginName, this.Password);
// The attributes for the QE_LogonProperties which is part of the main property bag
PropertyBag innerPropertyBag = new PropertyBag();
innerPropertyBag.Add("DSN", this.DSN);
innerPropertyBag.Add("UserID", this.LoginName);
innerPropertyBag.Add("Password", this.Password);
innerPropertyBag.Add("UseDSNProperties", "true");
// The attributes collection of the tables ConnectionInfo object
PropertyBag mainPropertyBag = new PropertyBag();
mainPropertyBag.Add("Database DLL", "crdb_ado.dll");
mainPropertyBag.Add("QE_DatabaseType", "OLE DB (ADO)");
mainPropertyBag.Add("QE_LogonProperties", innerPropertyBag);
// Pass the database properties to a connection info object
ConnectionInfo connectionInfo = new ConnectionInfo();
connectionInfo.Attributes = mainPropertyBag;
connectionInfo.Kind = CrConnectionInfoKindEnum.crConnectionInfoKindCRQE;
connectionInfo.UserName = this.LoginName;
connectionInfo.Password = this.Password;
// Replace the database connection properties of each table in the report
foreach (RAPTable oldTable in this.report.ReportClientDocument.DatabaseController.Database.Tables)
    RAPTable table = new RAPTable();
    table.ConnectionInfo = connectionInfo;
    table.Name = oldTable.Name;
    table.QualifiedName = oldTable.QualifiedName;
    table.Alias = oldTable.Alias;
    this.report.ReportClientDocument.DatabaseController.SetTableLocation(oldTable, table);
this.report.VerifyDatabase();
Thanks again Ludek for the help.

Calendar prompt for Date variable from bex

Hi All,
I have a Bex query where I have a variable on 0CALDAY
- Customer exit (i_step = 1 to populate with current date)
- Single value
- Mandatory
I created universe on this query and in webI selection screen i do see the variable prompt.
I am not able to see the current date populated automatically since exit values are not populated to WebI at runtime.
My problem is that in WebI selection screen we get list of date values from the info provider instead of Calendar prompt
where user can enter the values directly.
I am currently on BO XI 3.1 SP3.
Is there any specific setting in Universe or bex query which is required to get this Calendar prompt instead of list of values for dates?
Note: When we were on SP1 the universe created then had same variable from bex and it still shows us Calendar prompt but ever since we upgraded to SP3 for the query splitter functionality we not able to get the calendar prompt for date variable in new universe we create
Thanks
Ritesh

Yep.
Now tell me how you want to show that Prompt @ WebI report level.
My problem is that in WebI selection screen we get list of date values from the info provider instead of Calendar prompt
where user can enter the values directly. Exactly, i didn't get this??
@Prompt:
You have flexibility to show options like:
Mono/Multi: User can select Single value or Multiple.
BW Variable: Same we have (Single/Multiple)
Free/Constrained: User can Enter his/her value directly or No change option.
BW Variable: By defalut you will get this, once you made it to Optional input.
Persistent/Not_Persistent: Refreshed report has to show last selected value means use Persistent otherwise Not_P.
By seeing the Prompt syntax , I can say your Variable is after Customer Exit, Correct??
Workaround for your Problem is:
<FILTER KEY="ZV_DATE"><CONDITION OPERATORCONDITION="Equal"><CONSTANT TECH_NAME="@Prompt('Date (Previous Day)','A','Date\LovDate (Previous Day)Base',mono,primary_key)"/></CONDITION></FILTER>
You have to remove that Date class and objects from prompt syntax. Because of that it showing up LOV's not calendar.
Like:
<FILTER KEY="ZV_DATE"><CONDITION OPERATORCONDITION="Equal"><CONSTANT TECH_NAME="@Prompt('Date (Previous Day)','A',',mono,primary_key)"/></CONDITION></FILTER>
Why, It should be blank??
Because Date needs no class\object to show up, by default you will get Calendar on the fly.
Hope you got my point.
Thank You!!

Disable login prompt for SAP NW based Xcelsius Dashboard

Hi all,
Need assistance to understand what needs to be done in the below case:
Current scenario:
1. Developed Xcelsius Dashboard based on SAP NW Connectivity on BO XI 3.1 SP2+.
2. Configured trust between SAP BW server and BO Server using steps outlined in integration kit(login/accept_sso2_ticket, etc).
Imported user roles in BOE and enabled SAP authentication.
After this, WEBI Reports based on Bex queries refresh in Infoview without prompting for Login id/Password.
3. Configured SAP Server to enable portal/interop switch to display the Xcelsius Dashboard within Infoview which is the existing BI portal. Used Hyperlink object for enabling the link.
In the hyperlink, I am using the same link which gets generated when I use the option Xcelsius 2008>>file menu>>SAP>>Launch
Issue: On click of Hyperlink, I get SAP EP Login window. Once I fill up the SAP user id and password, the dashboard comes up
Server Configuration:All on same domain
SAP system ID=X(SAP BW server)
SAP system id=Y(SAP EP Portal)
BOBJ system Z(BOBJ Server)
User roles stored in X. Entitlement system defined in Z for SAP BW Server X.
Dashboard is not available in SAP EP Portal in any folder as of now. Have not created any roles yet.
As per the various posts and KB articles,
Do I need to enable SNC for both X and Y? or trust between Infoview and SAP EP portal can be enabled without enabling SNC?
Just like SAP BW server, does the SAP EP portal also has *.cert files that can be used to exchange with BO Server to enable trust.
Thanks,
V Fernandes

Hi Ingo,
Thanks for your explanation. I was referring the configuration mentioned in the wiki article for displaying Xcelsius Dashboard in Infoview where this was explained as a possibility. Even though its not Lean.
Link: [http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/BOBJ/IntegrationofanXcelsiusdashboardinBOE+Infoview]
The only difference in my case is the use of SAP Authentication instead of Enterprise.
Thus as per your last update the following workflow is only valid:
1. User logins to Infoview using SAP Authentication.
2. User clicks on Xcelsius Dashboard Hyperlink object.
3. SAP Enterprise Portal login pops up within the Infoview Workspace.
4. User has to fill in the Login credentials again.
5. Dashboard load up successfully.
Please correct me in case I am wrong.
Thanks for the response.In case there is any other way this can be achieved, then please do let me know. Appreciate for all the help.
Regards,
V Fernandes

Can you make Sysprep on Windows 8.1 and Server 2012 R2 Prompt for a Computer Name

Hi guys,
Our Windows 7 Unattend.xml has always made Sysprep prompt for Computer Name. I'm struggling to achieve that with Windows 8.1 and Svr 2012 R2.
Firstly: Is it still possible?
Secondly: If so, How?
Thanks

OOBE will only hide pages that contain the answers in the XML. So if you want OOBE to prompt for a computer name, make sure your XML does not contain the ComputerName object.
