BI and SAP for Mining

Hi!
Has anybody implemented BI with SAP for Mining?
Do you have any information about BI Content, features, reports, differences...?

There are APIs to use the ABAP application AS to remotely read the files and return them externally (e.g. to a SolMan or BW).
See the reports which start with RSAU* for some examples. A known demo program is RSAU_READ_AUDITLOG_EXTERNAL which will show you how to make the calls. You can also find the meta data here for your BI reports (don't forget to read all the fields, parameters 1 to 4 are very usefull as well).
Regarding "other" transaction usage logs, I can only recommend being very carefull. They have been widely misused for security although originally intended for response time statistics per program, to watch for "early" indications of problems.
The security audit log is the correct tool to use - others are semi-co-incidental.
Personally I then also use an external call as needed to rattle through 15 different logs I know of using import parameters from the drill down (in SolMan or local with user name, start time, no. of hours) exported into a cronologically sorted list showing the origin of the entry. Here it is usefull to use the STAT data to show what the user clicked on before hand to give the other 14 logs a context, but does not tell you what they actually did (particularly after the aggregation takes place).
The main hassle is the output formats. You will soon learn to hate spool....
Cheers,
Julius

    IBIP help doc says it needs 2 Kbyte for each record, i.e. 40 Mb for 20,000 rec. that should be ok. Since it has structures for Partner & classification data , I don't think u need to modify the BAPI.

  • Differences between SAP BO and SAP for Iphone

    Hi,
    Can someone tell me where I can see the relation of the releases between SAP Business one and the SAP BO for Iphone. Now testing, the stock of an item, the Iphone application is tell me that the release of the SAP server is not compatible with this funcitionality and I have to upgrade.
    The point is that I just upgrade the customer, form 2007 to 8.8 PL19, and I don't really know if I only have to upgra the B1i and in which PL, or I have to meka the upgrade of all the components of SAP BO.
    the release of the SAP for Iphone implemented is 1.2.0.
    Thanks,
    Cristian Moreno

    Hi Cristian,
    the recent docu for the App should give you the relevant info ([http://service.sap.com/sapidp/011000358700000483052011E/B1_MobileApp_Guide.pdf|http://service.sap.com/sapidp/011000358700000483052011E/B1_MobileApp_Guide.pdf]).
    These latest functions of Version 1.2.0 (like stock per warehouse) of our SAP Business One Mobile Application require SAP Business One backend on Minor Release 8.81, Patch Level 05.
    For reasons of backward compatibility mentioned system info has been installed.

  • Multiple data sources and cubes for mining

    We have two data sources:
     1 - OLTP database for transactional operations
     2 - Data Warehouse for analysis
    We use change data capture to track changes in the OLTP and upload to DW each night.
    Currently, we have one cube built on top of our DW for analysis and KPI's etc
    However, if we wish to use the OLTP DB for data mining, can this done in the same solution using a new data source or do we need to create a new cube etc?

    Hi Darren,
    According to your description, you are going to use the OLTP DB for data mining, what you want to know is can this done in the same solution using a new data source or do we need to create a new cube?
    In your scenario, if the cube structure for data mining is same as original cube, then you needn't create anything, just edit the connection of the data source to point to the OLTP database. If the cube structure for data mining is not same as original
    cube, then I am afraid you need to create a new cube.

  • Interface between Legacy and SAP for Equipment Master

    Hello
    I got a requirement where I need to develop a interface between legacy system and R/3 system for Equipment Master Data update in R/3. I am thinking of getting a Idoc file from Legacy and then update the changes or any new creation of Equipments in R/3. I found a standard BAPI for this BAPI_EQUIPMENT_CREATE/CHANGE. This BAPI use a strcture BAPI_ITOB for data record of IDoc. But I got more data from legacy except what we have in BAPI_ITOB. I got Partner Data, Classification data also for Equipments. I am thinking of copying the BAPI to a Z function module and modify the Idoc structure , message type and all to capture all the data and then do a update in same way as standard transaction IE01(Equipment Create) is doing in Batch Input. Do you think if there is any better way of doing this? I am not used to transaction BAPI . just wondering if we Can use that in someway to include our modification?
    Thanks

  • Interfacing application with SAP for Customer data

    Hello,
    I would like to build an interface between an external application and SAP for the customers. The Customer will be created and maintained in the external application and data should be updated in SAP automatically.
    I thought that I could use the idoc debmas but I am facing to issues :
    - Debmas doesn't update the data ( I have to fill again all the data to update the customer unless all the other data is cleared)
    - Debmas doesn't contains address data
    Is there any other way to build this kind of interface ? I would like to avoid specific programs.
    Thank you,

    Hi,
      Have you ever considered Direct Input method to upload your customer master records?
    RFBIDE00  is the standard sap program to upload.
    You can use LSMW to avaoid coding.
    Alternatively, you can extend the DEBMAS idoc to make it work the way you want to work.

  • SSO E-Sourcing and SAP GUI for HTML

    Hi,
    We are trying to provide integration between SAP E-Sourcing and SAP ECC via the SAP GUI for HTML. From an E-Sourcing project, we should define a link which will link us to the report via SAP GUI for HTML. Some parameters are automatically transferred via the URL so that the report will be prefiltered.
    The problem arises that we cannot create a SSO mechanism between SAP E-Sourcing and SAP GUI for HTML. The only documentation we can find is how to setup this SSO between the Portal and ESO (only included going from the EP to ESO). We need to find a way to do the opposite, i.e. SSO from ESO to SAP / EP.
    Thnx,
    Bram

    Dear Chong,
    I have came across the following information about SAP GUI For HTML
    With the version 7.02 / 7.20 of the NW Application Server
    the SAP GUI for HTML has been completely
    reworked.
    1.The rendering is now based on Unified
    Rendering which is also used by many other
    SAP UI technologies.
    2.Similar Look & Feel as other UI technologies
    3.Better Portal integration
    4.Full Theme support
    5.Unified client requirements
    But have not came across any note which converts the SAP GUI for HTML to SAP GUI for Windows in appearacne. I think the point 2 mentioned about says that in this version the SAP GUI for HTML will have appearnce like the other UI.
    Pls refer the [link|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/d06db80d-ebf4-2a10-6b99-faa652c69d5c?QuickLink=index&overridelayout=true]

  • Difference between SAP NetWeaver Gateway 2.0 and SAP NetWeaver Gateway productivity accelerator for Microsoft

    Hi Experts ,
    Can anyone tell me the difference between SAP NetWeaver Gateway 2.0 and SAP NetWeaver Gateway productivity accelerator for Microsoft ?
    Best Regards,
    SK

    SAP  Netweaver Gateway 2.0 is a product for Exposing ERP data as OData for external consumption which is independent of any Microsoft product. Using this you can model OData services and Expose them for light weight consumption. You can use this in use cases where  you just want to consume the OData in some client or so, and you do not want any kind of accelerators to help you in development or in your integration.
    GWPAM is an interoperability framework from SAP that leverages SAP NetWeaver Gateway and Microsoft technologies enabling customers and partners to easily and quickly compose solutions that consume and extend SAP throughout Microsoft technologies for on premise and on demand deployment. With GWPAM you get components like
    GWPAM Visual Studio Add-On,GWPAM Template,GWPAM Project,GWPAM Outlook Add-In which are very much Microsoft specific.

  • IDOC type for interface between SAP ECC and SAP F&R

    Hi Denish,
    You have 2 ways of loading data from R/3 to APO.
    1. R/3 to BW cube to APO-BW cube to APO planning area
    or
    2.  R/3 to APO-BW cube to APO planning area   
    BW can be a enterprise BW system ( independent) or you can use the BW inbuilt in APO also referred to as APO-BW.
    The only difference between the 2 BW systems is APO-BW can not take the load of reporting where as the enterprise BW can.
    Unless your company policy requires the enterprie BW system, I suggest using 2nd way.
    You can load the data from R/3 to APO-BW cube using extractors either generic or standard depending on your data. You need to have a RFC connection setup between APO-BW and R/3. ( This is not CIF).
    When you load the data into the APO-BW cube, you just have to load the data from the cube to APO planning area using the transaction /sapapo/tscube.
    Refer to [DP Data Mart|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_scm50/helpdata/en/13/5ada58309111d398250000e8a49608/frameset.htm] for more information about the data transfer between APO-BW and APO.
