SAP Business Objects Data Services 3.2 - Homogenous System Copy

Hi All,
We have a SAP Business Objects Data Services 3.2.
I wanted to know if it is possible do a homogenous system copy or any alternate procedure. I just need to perform this on a Development system and move all its content to a new Sandbox installation.
Any info on this will be much useful.
Thanks
Jaianandh V

Hi,
you could extract an ATL File from DEV and import it to Sandbox.
This can be done via the DS DEsigner. Please Check the DS Designer User Guide for more information.

when you makes changes to AD user or user group if the AD server is sync properly with BO thenthe changes should also be updated on BO. There are no changes in BO itself except for the changes in userbase and groups you have made in AD.

Business Object on SAP Web Application server.

Experts,
Can Business Objects be installed on SAP Web Application Server?
Any Help is appreciated.
Thanks
Yashu Raj

Matt,
Thanks for your input.
I found this information on SDN
Can Business Object Enterprise Web Tier be deployed on SAP NetWeaver system with usage type AS Java?"Yes, this is supported for Java 1.4 (NW 7.0), see http://support.businessobjects.com/documentation/supported_platforms/default.asp
However, the BOE Web Tier is not shipped with SAP NetWeaver, but can be deployed on an SAP NetWeaver system with usage type AS Java at customer side.
SAP is evaluating if we could ship the Busines Object Enterprise Web Tier with SAP NetWeaver in the future but that cannot be confirmed yet.
Still, in this scenario, the Busines Object Enterprise backend server would need to be installed as a separate server."
Can the Busines Object Enterprise backend server be deployed on an SAP NetWeaver system with usage type AS Java?
"No, as this is not a J2EE application, but a mix of Java and C++.
SAP is evaluating if the Busines Object Enterprise backend server could be shipped as a ""Standalone engine"" (as it is the case for BIA and Livecache
Can the whole or at least relevant parts of the whole Busines Object Enterprise be deployed to the NetWeaver J2EE server, so that distinct scenarios for Busines Object applications run without the need to install a separate Busines Object Enterprise backend server?
This scenario is currently planned for the next generation Analysis Client (Project: Pioneer) and evaluated for the Java based Crystal Version.
I am trying to understand the difference between BOE Web Tier and Busines Object Enterprise backend server....can you throw some light on it if you can.
I am a SAP BI consultant and one of my customers have this question on BOBJ. Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks
Yashu Raj

Integration between SAP BI 3.5 and Business Object

Hi experts
I'm working on a SAP ECC 5.00 environment with SAP BI 3.5
We want introduce the Business object application for the SAP Bi reporting, without upgrade SAP BI to 7.0 release.
Can you suggest me a documentation or similar explaining the pros and cons of this type integration, and possible problems we can occur on (if any).
another question is: is it possible upgrade SAP BI to 7.0 release maintaining Netweaver 2004, or the upgrade to Netweaver 2004s is required?
if this upgrade is required, it will affect also the ECC (from 5.00 o 6.00)?
thanks in advance

Business Objects used in SAP OVS

Hi, experts.
How do I know the Business Object used in an SAP OVS?
Please kindly answer.
Regards.

Hi, Sunil Maurya,
I am sorry that I misunderstood my problem.
My BO has a field that uses CompanyID.OVS.
I want the companyID of the CustomerInvoiceRequest.xbo to use as an ID for my custom BO to get some other field but CustomerInvoiceRequest only uses AccountBusinessPartnerID.OVS.
And what I am getting with this code
"companyId = this.BuyerParty.PartyKey.PartyID.content"
is just account id. What i want is a CompanyID that I can use to retrieve other field from my own BO.
I am really sorry if my writhing is complicated and hard to understand.

Xcelsius (SWFfile) performance after exporting to Business objects platform

Hello,
I am facing a problem wherein the SWF file takes time (almost 1-2min) to load the refreshed data in Infoview portal
i.e. after exporting the xlf file to Business Objects platform.
Following are the system details:
1) Business Objects XI Release 3.1
2) Xcelcius Engage/Enterprise 2008 SP3 Windows (file name: 51038212.ZIP) version 5.3.0.0 build number 12,3,0,670.
Following are the dashboard details:
1)2 tab sets
2)column charts
3)combo boxes
4)spreadsheet tables
5)quite a few images and logos embeded
In the xlf file, we have used the Refresh on load option in
Data manager so that the dashboard (SWF File) takes the latest WebI report instance when opened in Infoview portal.
The SWF file is approximately 2MB in size and it uses 42 live office connections.
Also I had read in few blogs that vlookup function is not the ideal function to be used in the excel datasheet and instead INDEX/MATCH
can be used to improve performance. Is it true? I have tried using INDEX/MATCH function for few charts but doesn't show any performance improvement.
Please suggest solution as to how to decrease the time it takes to refresh the live office connections and display the SWF file in Infoview portal.
Cheers
Lee

Hi Lee,
2 MB is quite heavy for a swf file. I think you should split this file in different parent-child flash files using the swf loader component and opendoc.
Look at this forums:
[http://www.forumtopics.com/busobj/viewtopic.php?t=85926]
For "parent-child" on XI 3.1 with parameters and LiveOffice refresh in the child swf:
[Calling Dashboards from Dashboards in Xcelsius 2008;
You can have more information about pareht-child xcelsius at the official documentation in SAP markeplace.
I hope this helps.

Business Objects Demo documents

Hi All,
Client has requested for a demo on Business object reporting features. Due to system constraints and short time frame, we are looking for demo of Business Objects reporting features that can be presented to the client.
Architecture
Proposed solution features BOBJ XI 3.1 SP2 as a front End Reporting Tool with SAP BW 7.0 as the back end data warehouse tool. SAP ECC 6.0 acts as the source system for SAP BW for all the data requirements.
ECC 6.0 -SAP BW 7.0-SAP BOBJ XI 3.1- EP
Reports are created on top of SAP BW 7.0 using SAP Business Objects XI 3.1 SP2 tools ( Xcelsius, Web Intelligence and Crystal reports) as front end reporting tool . User will be accessing the reports from Enterprise Portal.
Do we have any demo representation of the BOBJ reporting features (reports are accessed from EP) on a end user perspective? The demo would feature the following scenario
1) User logging into Enterprise portal and accessing the reports created and published using Business Objects tools ( Single Sign On).
2) Report opens up with different I-views in one web page. The different I-views shall be based on reports created using different BOBJ tools ( Xcelsius, Web Intelligence and Crystal reports) .
3) Possible navigational features possible in these reports . Example can be
a.     Switch to graphical representation from table format
b.     Save data into excel format
c.     Drill down/Slice and Dice in reports
d.     Summarized and detail level of data
e.     Insert calculations
f.     Add rows and columns to tables
g.     Formatting report
h.     Other navigation features
4) Create ad hoc reports using WebI and publishing the reports in Portal Favorites?
5) Distribution of reports
If you have any related documents, would you be able to share with us.
Regards,
Manesh

Hi Nicolai,
in this case you have to implement within ABAP a class for the SES interface.
Within this class you have to fetch the document content and store it in an attribute for SES.
This class implementation will be used by SES Framework to send it to TREX for indexing and searching.
So this is a customer ABAP development project based on SES Framework.
This is also done within the SAP Consulting Solution mentioned in Hinweis 1332745 - trex based document search with classification support.
Here the DMS originals are indexed with the DRAW data within SES.
So have a closer look how to use and implement own classes for SES in help.sap.com.
Best regards

How to transfer data between spreadsheets without using Business Objects?

Hello, every time I try and log onto the business objects platform I keep getting "this system can be contacted but there is no central management server running at port 6400". All I need to do is pass variables between spreadsheets. Both files are located in the same folder. Below are the links ive tried but have been unsuccessful to pass data.
(This link I used the swf loader component child and flash variables task Daya posted on Feb 15. However nothing loaded. The link wasnt a link i could display is in a browser. So i kept getting 0% when in preview mode.
Passing values from dashboard to dashboard with Flash Variables
Next I tried the following link. I did everything word for word and was able to display both files on the html page, but no link or connection between them existed. I would select a state and noting happened to the other swf files chart. Does this need to be in the Business Objects platform?
Dashboards 4.0: Connect to an external
Lastly , I used the link below. I followed everything and was able to get interaction from the parent to child however with only the files that were available on this thread. Their URL was this http://myxcelsius.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/child.swf?salesman=Schrute,Dwight. I get the concatenation but I dont get how this URL was generated? How do I develop my URL? My URL is able to display in a browser. My URL is
http://kln-ftvp/KLNPheonix//LinkToReport.htm?fqn=MyEnterprise.Public.graphtest&run=true
SWF Loader shows 100% instead of Dashboard.
Even with my URL being able to display in internet explorer, I still only show 100% and a blank screen. Can anyone help me with any of the issues I am having trouble with? Your help is most appreciated. Thank you.

It looks like you have more than one problems so it might be good to separate them out.
Issue 1 - Logging on to BusinessObjects
You say that when you try log on to the BO Platform you get the error message there is no central management server running on port 6400. I'm assuming you are trying to do this from the Dashboard designer.
Does it work when you try to log on from the web browser?
Make sure that you enter the correct system name in the system field when trying to log on from Designer. If you are unsure, either check what system name is used when you log on from your browser or check with your BO administrator.
Issue 2 - Passing values to a child dashboard
If you try to preview the dashboard in the designer, remember that the swf loader doesn't work in preview mode, so whatever you are trying to display won't be visible.
First of all you need to have 2 separate flash files that works independently of each other. The one that you are planning to use as a child flash, make sure that you create the flash variables so you can pass variables to it and use them to filter your data if that is your requirement. But hold off on that for now.
When you have 2 working flash files, save them both to the BI Launch Pad (or InfoView if you are on 3.1) and make sure they both work there. Then get the opendocument url for the child dashboard and try to open it in your browser directly using this url. If that works, use the same url in the swf viewer in the parent dashboard, save the parent dashboard back to BI Launch Pad and open it. It should now work.
Let me know if you have any problems with these steps.
Cheers,
Josh
