what is the procedure for testing SAP biw reports?
I am a beginner in sap biw.Hi Obily,
If you want to Test a Query then you can do it by selct the Query in
TCODE: RSRT --> and click Execute+Debug
Checking BW reports is internally related with Data and the Output format...
For checking Data from R/3 and BW we have to follow Reconcilation procedures
check this PDF

Dear sap professionals,
this is suresh, i am trying to logon to sap BIW 3.0 from sap r/3, to do this i used the proper Tcode. but the issue is i am getting the error message "name or password incorrect please reenter". any body knows how to make the remote connection to BIW 3.0. thanks in advancein my case,
i got the same error..
By mistake, i touched [Caps Lock] button. ( haha )
i typed the password again.
it worked. i mean i could log on the BW system.

we need to type <b>the password as "Capital Letters".</b>
I hope it helps you.

Testing Tools for SAP & SAP BIW
Hi Forum ,
will any body pls let me know what are available testing tools for SAP and SAP BIW? Which tool is popular and mostly used? Does any one provide training for this tools?
Regards
SuhelHi,
For SAP R/3 we use CATT and ECATT tools.
Both are very useful tools and generally used for automated functional testing.Reduces a large amount of cost and human effort.
Even you can convert or call external tool scripts like mercury QTP etc from ECATT and run from ECATT itself.Also you can use these tools with solution manager to get awesome effortless testing and test plan management.
Check my weblogs.
Part-1:Shows how to create a Parameterize CATT script.

Part-2:Shows how to migrate CATT to ECATT script.

This one shows the minimum configuration required for QTP and ECATT integration on client and server side.
2./people/community.user/blog/2007/01/15/integrating-ecatt-mercury-qtp-part-2
This one shows the standalone mode.e.g.mercury script is created and uploaded to ecatt and then executed from ecatt itself.Also,It is now possible to call this script from Solution manager.
3./people/community.user/blog/2007/01/22/integrating-ecatt-mercury-qtp-part-3
This one shows the integration mode which is most powerful as we can run QTP scripts from ECATT,Upload & download modify existing etc.

Hi
can any one tell me that i am working on Hr module can any body tell me what are the content has to be follow for sap hr in respect to sap biw

gurkiranhi,
On the Bw side try and find Info area 0HCM.
Under that you will find many other info area like:
Time Management 0PT
Learning Solution 0HCM_LSO
Organizational Management 0PAOS
Personnel Administration 0PAPA
Try and go through them. They contain standard cubes like 0PT_C01, 0PAOS_C01, 0PAPA_C02 etc.
They will give you a headstart of the use of HR in BW.
Hope this helps.

Hi all,
I tried the new how-to paper (SAP BIW - Load Schedule Map) to greate a report to view the scheduled loadings via PCs, but some formula variables are used there, which are not defined within the howto paper.
Did somebody of you generate the report already successfully ???
And maybe you have some hints for me to define the variables (techn. name: Y....Avg_Dur_Sec).
Seams to me that there is a calculation in secondes behind it.
Thanks a lot !!!!
Best Regards from Germany,
Alex.Hello Alexander,
Page 14 explains how to create each formula for 0-23. One thing that was not illustrated was that on Page 14 where you see the number 15 a lot, well, just be sure you make each occurence of that a number 0 when you are on 0, 1 when you are on 1, 2 when you are on 2 etc.
Also take note of what is a local formula and what is a global formula as noted in the directions.
It took me a little while, but I got it working!
Also if you chain names don't appear when you run the query, just change the display properties for the Key/Text (Long text)
I also believe you need to use Analyzer Version 7 for the definition. I couldn't find the 'TIME' function using analyzer version 3 (Although i didn't look very hard either)
Thanks,
Nick

If and only if you have experience on this version BI 7.0 then go for it, Becaue the look and feel of the BI 7.0 is different from the BW 3.x. There are lot of changes in the BI 7.0.
Other wise I would suggest you to aim for 3.5 certification

Hi all :
I am a beginner in SAP Portal, truely speaking in the whole SAP domain. I just graduated last year and worked for 1 year in core Java and VB development. In my new job, I have to deal with all ERP/SAP stuffs.
My first responsibility is to learn SAP Enterprise Portal for the time being. Though I know it's a part of the SAP NetWeaver product suite, my understanding is to learn the Portal I really dont need to learn the core SAP R/3 right now ( but definitely yes in the long run ) as it says Portal can also be implemented to handle/manipulate non-SAP data. I am mainly interested to learn development using SAP Portal ( eg. a dynamic website with a backend MSSQL server
So my question is what's the good starting point for a beginner like me? I did have a look at the help.sap.com website but got bit confused. It starts directly with the assumption that I have got the necessary softwares/servers/studios installed. So just wondering what's the best starting point for me to start from the scratch in order to learn Portal? Also are there books for beginners to learn development in Portal?
Thanks and regards.
