Audit Universe/Reports

Where can I find the Universe and Reports for Auditing. I've seen references to a biar file, but no name?

Jim,
What version and package name of BusinessObjects do you have? For instance, the BOE Premium has Auditor bundled, but not necessarily so with other BOE products unless you purchases Auditor separately. If you have the right version of BOE, then do a search for m29.cab on your system, that is where the BIAR for Auditor usely resides... Also, you'll have to set up a database area (or you can use a new, dedicated database server) for auditor, establish a ODBC/DSN connection, and go through the motions of re-installing BOE, selecting the Auditor option before trying to play with the m29.cab file.... A good document to get a hold of is the Auditor PDF (xir2_bip_auditor_en.pdf) which give you more insight to administering the product.
Thanks,
John

BO 4.0 Audit Universe Deleted Reports/Duplicate Records

Hi,
I'm using the BO 4.0 Audit Universe for a project/report. The idea is to show just the user name against report name, run date and run time. The problem lies in the report name. The universe does these:
In case of deleted reports, the report name is prefixed and suffixed with a series of numbers i.e xxxxx_<Report Name>_yyyyy.
Is there any dimension upon which I can filter these entries out assuming I don't want them in my report even if they were run on that particular date but do not exist in the system now - a dimension that shows the current status of the corresponding report, whether they are available or deleted?
Another issue is, if the report name has been changed (the CUID remains the same), the resultant data set brings up individual records for each of the report names.
For eg.,
Date
CUID
Name
Runs
March 1
AaabbccDeFF
Drilldown Report
5
March 7
AaabbccDeFF
Detailed Report
7
March 20
AaabbccDeFF
Detailed Report V1.02
3
This is how the result data set brings up. Is it possible to bring them all under one name (the latest) so that, in the above example, only the last record turns up with a total runs of 15?
Back info: MSSQL is used and I do not have access to the database. I have access to just the universe. Neither do I have access to CMC. However, if anything needs to be done at either of these levels, I can push for the concerned team to get that done. Also, the final medium of reporting will be both a WebI report and a Dashboard.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Rangarajan

Thanks, got it. Is it possible, by any means, to get that information through the Audit schema by adding it but not manually? I mean, is there an alternative to bring that into Audit without manually creating a user master and including it in the schema?
Thanks,
Rangarajan.

Sample Auditing Universe and Reports for SAP BusinessObjects_4_x

We've followed the instructions provided in
http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-53904
and installed the BOEXI40-Audit-MSSQL.unx universe and it is visible and I'm able to create a custom Webi report against it.
However, my goal is to use canned Crystal Reports that comes with the tool by connecting it to the above universe but when I attempt to 'Set Datasource Location' in Crystal, I'm unable to see or connect to the above universe.
What am I missing or what type of permission do I need to give to the above universe to make it visible inside Crystal Reports?
Thanks,
Hamid

Are you doing this in Crystal Reports with the audit reports that came from 3.1? If so - it won't work. Crystal Reports will not connect to the new .unx universes. It can only connect to old style .unv universes. Also, the new universe and the old one from 3.1 are not at all the same, so you can't use the same reports as you did in 3.1.
There are some Crystal for Enterprise reports that are in the zip file with the 4.x audit universe. They have the same .rpt extension that "classic" Crystal reports have, but you have to edit them in Crystal for Enterprise in order to point them to the correct universe. Your other option is to build Webi reports against the .unx.

BI 4.1 auditing sample reports in WebI format ?

Hi!
Is it possible to get auditing sample reports in WebI format instead of Crystal format (like in previous versions of BO) ?
When Crystal is not used by a custommer, it's a pity to install and run Crystal servers & client just for auditing reports, isn't it ?
Regards,
Stéphane.

Tilak,
All the information you need on the Audit Database can be found within the different Admin Guide and the sample UNX w/ Crystal Enterprise reports provided.
http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/boexir4/en/xi4_bip_admin_en.pdf
- Section 20
http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/sbo41/en/sbo41sp4_bip_admin_en.pdf

You can very easily reverse engineer the Crystal Enterprise Reports and create starter WebI reports and beyond.

Auditing Instanced reports!

Hi all
I've set up the auditing database and configured the Activity universe. Also I have set the auditing levels for 'Document Retrieved', or 'Document Saved' or 'Document Refreshed' or 'Report Viewing Succeeded' .
However it seems that auditing doesn't capture vewing the instanced reports! Almost all of our reports are Webi instanced reports that are scheduled to run on weekly basis.
There is no data in the audit database for the these events for the instanced reports.
Is there any way to catch the event when user opens an instanced report manually or through an Xcelsius dashboard?
Thanks in advance!
Tootia

if you audit is configured correctly it should write the events in the audit_event & audit_detail.
the event are 1st written in a directory on the server. the cms then pick them up and send them in the audit DB
you probably have to work on your universe & reports if you are not using the default mysql.
as for xcelsius yes you can as whenever a dashboard is refresh vis QAAWS it's a wid behind it so it will show in the audit

Audit Universe - Group Details

Hi,
I wanted to extract group information from Audit Universe so I have written this derive SQL but this doesn't help much.
If a User is in HR Power User, Finance Report Consumer etc groups then it displays the result as
User Everyone
User Everyone | HR Power User
User Everyone | HR Power User | Finance Report Consumer
and there is no way to find out which are the groups that a user is currently in. It has one entry for every group a user was ever added or removed from.
If someone has a better derived SQL for extracting Group information please let me know.
select
     AUDIT_EVENT.Server_CUID, AUDIT_EVENT.Event_ID, RTRIM(TO_CHAR(AUDIT_DETAIL.Detail_Text), CHR(0)) as Detail_Text
from
     AUDIT_EVENT, AUDIT_DETAIL
where
     (AUDIT_EVENT.Server_CUID = AUDIT_DETAIL.Server_CUID) and
     (AUDIT_EVENT.Event_ID = AUDIT_DETAIL.Event_ID) and
     (AUDIT_DETAIL.Detail_Type_ID = 42)
Thanks,
Zahra

Audit universes for Bi4.0 are provided as samples of what is possible, it is the community that SAP wants to be developing this and share.
On the page in SDN where you got the universe - leave a comment asking for the DB2 version.

Usage Report and Audit Log report showing different totals

I am trying to understand the differences displayed in two similar reports. The first report is an 'Audit Log' Report and it is displaying the number of Resource Account creations over a time period. The second report is a Usage Report using the exact same criteria (objectType = Resource Account and Action = Create). The totals I get back are VASTLY different. Can anyone explain? Is this a known bug?

Hi,
In any report we don't show the storage policies information. In Cost report if the storage policies have different rate factors then we will show the split for the storage information. But in usage report , rate factors will not be applicable as we don''t show the cost details. Hope this clarifies your question. Please let us know if you need more information.
Thanks,
Lakshmi
