Ap;plication help from ESR or Integration Builder

Hi,
We have PI7.1 installed and the Application Help is working from the ABAP side. However, the Application Help is disabled in Enterprise Services Builder and Integration Builder (java side). I have not found any documentation on how to enable the Application Help.
Can someone point me in the right direction on enabling the Application Help from the Java side (in the Integration Builder or Enterprise Services Builder)?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Rick

Hi Rick
See the SAP note #839880 'Documentation link on XI 3.0 Tools page'. Check the attached pdf document for steps necessary. The note is geared towards XI 3.0 but I think all the necessary steps are identical in PI 7.10.
Then enter whatever URL you wish. For example:
Online help search page:
http://help.sap.com/search/sap_trex.jsp
Online help url for 7.10:

How to import stuff from SLD to Integration Builder ?

Hi All ,
I have done all my definition and configuration in SLD - Product definiton, Technical System, Business system, SWCV , SWC , logical system - everything is in SDL.
When I go to' IB:design' and 'IB:config' I don't see anything I created in SLD?
I guess this is because the very next step should be to import all this stuff from SLD into Integration Builder.?.I read some posts on the forum but it is not clear where this is done :
1.should I do it first in IB:design or in IB:configuration ?
Can you please tell me how this is done technically and in what order - from wich menu and how?
2.And what is Enviroment->Clear SLD Data Cache used ? Do I have to use it and at which point?
Looking forward to your reply asap..Thanks all in advance..
Regards,
Boby

Boby,
If you do all the configuration in SLD only thing you have to import is the software component into Design and create your namespace and all the objects.
In Configuration you have to import your business systems and do all the routing rules.
Check this weblogs for step by step procedure for an end to end scenario:
/people/srinivas.vanamala2/blog/2007/02/05/step-by-step-guide-xml-file-2-xml-file-scenario-part-i
/people/srinivas.vanamala2/blog/2007/02/05/step-by-step-guide-xml-file-2-xml-file-scenario-part-ii

2.And what is Enviroment->Clear SLD Data Cache used ? Do I have to use it and at which point?
If you change anything in IR and ID and this new changes do not reflect in your scenario then we do this normally.
Also check this document for all the caches in XI:

Please Help PI Data Dependent Integration Builder Authorizations NOT Workng

Dear Friends / Experts,
I had spend many days and explored all Weblog and links on this website and implemented all the steps required to acheive Data Dependent Integration Builder Security and I am not successful so far. I am just giving up now - Please Help Me ---
As I said, I already read all the important Forum Links and SAP Web links and Followed Each and Every Step - service.sap.com/instguidesNW04 ® Installation ® SAP XI
Security Requirement - Data Dependent/Object Level Authorizations in XI / PI
In distributed teams or in a shared PI environment it might be necessary to limit authorization for a developer or a group of developers to only one Software Component or objects within a Software Component or to specific Configuration Objects.
Our Environment - PI 7.0 SP 16
Created a new role in the Integration Builder Design
u2013Add Object Types of any Software Component and Namespace
- Enable usage of Integration Builder roles in Exchange Profile
Integration Builder u2013Integration Builder RepositoryParameter com.sap.aii.util.server.auth.activation to true
Assign users to the newly created Integration Builder roles
u2013Create dummy roles in Web AS ABAP, these roles are then available as groups in Web AS Java
u2013Assign users to these roles
u2013Assign the Integration Builder roles to the above groups in Web AS Java
u2013Assign unrestricted roles to Super Users
Please help - How to validate whether Data Dependent Authorizations are Activated?
I am working with XI Developers and Basis Team and we did updated all the Required Exchange profile parameters.
Per this Document - User Authorizations in Integration Builder Tools - Do we need to update the server.lockauth.activation in Exchange Profile. When We updated, It removed Edit Access from all XI Developers in PI
In both the Integration Repository and the Integration Directory, you can define more detailed authorizations that restrict access to design and configuration objects.
In both tools, you define such authorizations by choosing Tools ® User Roles from the menu bar. The authorization for this menu option is provided by role SAP_XI_ADMINISTRATOR_J2EE. Of course, this role should only be granted to a very restricted number of administrators. To activate these more detailed authorizations, you must set exchange profile parameter com.sap.aii.ib.server.lockauth.activation to true.
The access authorizations themselves can be defined at the object-type level only (possibly restricted by a selection path), where you can specify each access action either individually as Create, Modify, or Delete for each object type, or as an overall access granting all three access actions.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/f7/c2953fc405330ee10000000a114084/frameset.htm
I was able to control display and maintain access from ABAP Roles, but completely failed to implement Integration Builder Security?
Are there any ways to check Whether Data Dependent authorization or J2EE Authorizations are activated?
Thanks a lot
Satish

Hello,
so to give you status of our issue.
We were able to export missing business component .
But we also exported some interfaces after that and we had some return code 8, due to objects still present in change list on quality system (seems after previous failed transports , the change list was not cleared completley...).
So now we have checked that no objects is present in the change list of quality system and we plan to export again our devs on quality system.
Hope after that no more return code 8 during imports and all devs transported correctly on quality system.
Also recommending to read that, which is pretty good.

Where-Used between ESR and Integration Builder

Hello everyone,
i am wondering if there is a possibility of finding out where and if esr-content is used in the Integration Builder (Conf.time)?
I often face the problem that i have got ESR-Content in front of me, where i don't know if, and if yes, where this content, for example a Service Interface, is used in Configuration-Time!
How can i determine this?
Thanks in advance!
Kind regards,
Markus

HI Markus
in ID use following path..
Object--> Find.
it will open search requirement window..
in that select receiver determination if you want to check outbound service interface from IR.. or select Interface determination in case you want to check for inbound service interface..
suppose in IR side you have outbound service interface : CreateCustomerOutbound
then in ID go to find and select receiver determination and in interface provide CreateCustomerOutbound
this will search all scenario where CreateCustomerOutbound is being used .. likewise you can narrow it down in Find option to get the required results in less time..
but no direct method for search..
Thanks,
Bhupesh

Integration Builder configuration.

Dear All,
 I am new to XI as Basis Administrator. I need to configure Integration Builder for developers. All I have access is to SLD http://<hostname>/sld and SAP GUI.
 All I know is I need to install JRE with version > 1.4.* and configure web proxy to access XI server.
 My question is what will developers expect me to configure, and what will developer be doing with integration builder ? (tasks in broad terms)
 Do I need to perfrom any tasks on Visual administrator to make some settings ? what are minimum authorizations should I give to developer ?
 Any reasonable advice will be helpful get start configuring integration builder.
Thanks,
N

Hi,
>>My question is what will developers expect me to configure, and what will developer be doing with integration builder ? (tasks in broad terms)
XI Developers needs Rights for
1 Usually the technical system configuration is carried out by basis or admin team
2 Integration builder - creating all design objects, configuration objects
3. You have to provide access for the developer to monitor in RWB

No Connection to Integration Builder (only local data visible): from R/3

Hi,
I am also facing the same problem. I maintained the RFC destinations in R/3 properly. I did Test Connection and for RFC destination its working fine. I maintained proper values in SLDAPICUST. When I run SLDCHECK I got the following error.
Calling function LCR_LIST_BUSINESS_SYSTEMS
Retrieving data from the SLD server...
Function call returned exception code 4
=> Check whether the SLD is running!
Summary: Connection to SLD does not work
=> Check SLD function and configurations
Otherwise access to XI Profile works fine. But then when I run SPROXY I am getting the same message No Connection to Integration Builder (only local data visible)
I also checked the following report =>Check with report SPROX_CHECK_IFR_RESPONSE (3rd option) its giving informational message Integration Builder data not understood, for the 4th report ==>Check with report SPROX_CHECK_IFR_CONNECTION, it is also showing the same above information message.
Looking forward for the response,
Appreciate your help,
Thanks and Regards,
Jagadish

Hi,
I had the same problem and I have already solved it.
You have just to apply the following sap notes :
1232805 - Saint: Queue calculation for an add-on with CRT´s fail.
769120 - Support Package for APPINT 200_620
The first one is to update tha SPAM/SAINT to v 30 and the second one allow you use the pi/xi objects on application system.
There is another sap note 689847, but you just apply this if the sap notes above described did not work.

Integration builder config obj transported from DEV to QA but not found

Hi,
I have a new development in PI DEV. I exported the ESR objects in a transport as well the Integration builder config objects in the same transport. Asked my admin to move it through CTS to PI QA. Its done.
In PI QA system, I am able to see the new ESR objects in the Enterprise services Builder.
But not able to see the config objects in Integration Directory (Integration Builder).
I researched the forum got some tips tried but in vain.
1. I chose Tools menu --> Find transports option but no transports found.
2. I cleared cache (full refresh)
3. Closed and reopened Integration builder
I just want to see those config folders as it was designed in the dev !!
Help is appreciated please.
thnks

Hi!
Yes , you can transport the ID Objects through CTS, But the catch is : -
After transport ID Objects, will not directly come into ID object list Like ESR Object Did , here in ID transported Object first Move into Change Object list , There you need to acticate Them. then these Object will be appear in ID Object List,
Method CONFIGURATION OBJECTS ---> (INTEGRATION DIRECTORY) -
> INTEGRATION BUILDER.
Step -I
1. Select Configuration Scenario to trasport.
2. Right Click on Configuration Scenario to Transport.
3. Select Export Option.
4. Check or Select the Configuration Scenario.
5. Check the Mode of transport.
CTS MOde:-
5.1     Select a required type of Object Set:
     IN OUR CASE: ALL OBJECT OF Selected Scenario.
5.2        Select Transort request.
5.3      Finish the Process.
TRANSPORT USING FILE SYSTEM:-
5.1     Select a required type of Object Set:
     IN OUR CASE: ALL OBJECT OF Selected Scenario.
5.2      Finish the Process.
Step II
1. GO TO TOOLS OPTION IN MENU BAR
2. OPEN CTS TRANSPORT ORGANIZER
3. Select the request to Release.
4. Press Button Release.
Step III( Steps to be Perform at Target System).
1. Execute Transection Code STMS.
2. Check your Transport Request Number.
3. Focus on that Trasport Request Number Through Mouse.
4. Now Import The Transport Request on Specific client of Target System.
5.Click Ok.
FINAL :- NOw on Quality Server all Transported Objects Need to be activated( CHANGE OBJECTS).

Service Enhancements ESR - Integration Builder

Hello,
I made some enhancements of standard services in the ESR. In the ABAP backend I created the corresponding proxys. But when I try to to configure the enhanced services in the Integration Builder I only get the standard services. How can I refer to the enhanced services in the Integration Builder?
Kind Regards
Felix

Hello,
If you did not change the Service Interface Name then you wil automatically make use of the changed datatype. The Integration Builder is just the configuration of the objects you make/change in the ESR.
If you only changed your datatype your scenario will continue to work. You do not have to change anything in the Integration Builder.

Can't Launch Integration Builder, help me.

I downloaded Full ABAP Edition of SAP NetWeaver Sneak Preview and Trial, after install, I wanna develop XI-CONTENT, but cann't Launch Integration Builder, always open 'SapWorkDir' directory, but no error message showed, status bar print "starting browser...". And I did not using J2ee Server, only ABAP edition, of course J2SE 1.4.2.12 has been installed.
I do not known why , thanks for any help.
by the way I looked Syslog, there always a "Communications data: Service initialization failed" message each time I start NSP instance, but every things seems ok.

Hi,
Just adding on to what Michal said,
SDN has recently released 2 Sneak Preview products:
- SAP NetWeaver 04 SP15 Full Java Edition
- SAP NetWeaver 04s Full ABAP Edition (with Web Dynpro for ABAP)
But for XI we need both the Java and Abap stacks and not just having them individually, because of which you cannot use it for XI.That is, the Sneak Preview products contain either the JAVA or the ABAP stack but not both together.
The link below i guess will also help you learn more about the Sneak Preview products and get a clear idea on the same:
http://www.howforge.com/news/sneap-prevew-sap-netweaver-04-sp15-java-abap
And incase you had installed XI or PI has Michal suggested then probably the solution provided by Ben will be useful..
I hope this clears your doubt....

Abhy

XI Integration Builder Security

We need to access to XI Integration Builder and XI System Landscape Directory for internet use. In our system landscape the users currently access, for instance, the portal by an iisproxy and access SRM by an ITS wgate. The server with iisproxy and the wgate is the only one visible in the internet. When we try to access the Integration Builder using an internet connection we cannot access it because we are trying to connect directly with XI server port 50000. For security measures it is not possible to access XI server directly from the internet, iisproxy server must be used.
Our question: is it possible to configure the XI internet access considering the described system landscape?

Hi Kirk,
What you can (and proberbly should) do is setup a local adapter engine (local J2EE installation) inside your DMZ (where the proxy is located). The internet server can than access your local adapter engine directl (preferably via HTTPS). The connection between you integration server (XI) and the local adapter engine must be opened through all firewalls (again you might want to use HTTTPS).
You can maintain the local adapter engine through the integration server, but servers on the internet can only access the local adapter engine.
You also might want some extra security using username/password or client certificates on the local adapter engine in the DMZ.
In my opinion using an ITS or a reverse proxy is making things to complicated.
Hopes this helps,
Christiaan Schaake.

XI scalability architecture - deploying integration builder objects

Hi
I read in the SAP document - 'Scaling up XI' that the way to scale up XI is simply addition of dialog instances and all these additional dialog instances would access the database in the central instance.
Now, in this scaled up architecture, do we have to transport integration builder objects onto each of the additional dialog instances - or do the entire set of integration builder objects needed at runtime - reside on the database on the central instance and are accessed by the different dialog instances ? ( In this case, the integration builder objects have to be transported to the central instance only . and the CMS setup should point to the url of the central instance only )
Is there any document that clarifies this concept of moving the production objects onto the central instance ?
Any thoughts, ideas shared on this would be rewarded.

Hi Karthik,
U must ve read this document
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/c3d9d710-0d01-0010-7486-9a51ab92b927
Scaling of XI servers is done when "Performance" is the main issue to be considered. scaling thus generally includes the scaling of IS. So the entire set of IB objects should be placed at central instances only
This will help u

The launching time of integration builder is extremely longer

Dear XI experts
I will tell you our story.
When I execute Demo examples (Chapter 5.1.3 Executing and Testing XI 3.0 Demo Examples Configuration)
We got the error STRING_BAD_REF dump when starting BSP application, I found out the solution : SAP Note Number : 869197
We did upgrade to a 6.40 kernel patch level 48 as mentioned in the SAP note.
After that, whenever I launch (start) the integration builder, it takes for ages.
Between [login screen]
http://static.flickr.com/56/117541396_db88ce7101_o.jpg
And [integration builder launching screen]
http://static.flickr.com/35/117541397_4bc79529e8_o.jpg
Ironically the websites related to Java engine pop up as usual, such as SLD, Java start page and so on. Also after few minutes I can get the integration builder in front of my eyes. However, whenever I try to create objects or call some information from the server it also takes time.
Which part do I need to look at in details?
Thank you for your reading.
I will appreciate your any comment.

David
