Hi Jacqueline, the Motors database does not come with the BusinessObjects installation. If you have taken a training class, it should be provided in the class material (in a CD on the back of the training book if you have purchased the book).
Since you took a web based training instead of an instructor-led training class, I am not familiar on how the training materials are disseminated. Did they ever ask you to download the training materials? Or perhaps your BO Admin had downloaded and installed the Motors database? Otherwise, you wouldn't be able to go through the training class back then. How did you do the practice exercises?
Regardless, if you don't have it for some reason, you can always contact SAP Support for assistance.

WebElements 2.46 with business Objects XI3.1 SP4?

Hi Guys,
We recently upgraded our Business Objects XI 3.1 SP2 FP2.8 to Business Objects XI 3.1 SP4. When we try to view WebElements Report via CR2008 or via Infoview it basically shows just the HTML code behind that report. We followed the WebElements 2.46 guide to configure the BusinessObjects Enterprise server to allow pass-through HTML but it's still the same.
Just wondering if anyone out there is running WebElements on Business Objects XI 3.1 SP4? Or if anyone has a similar issue?
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Adnan

hi Adrian,
there were some issues with webelements in the latest service pack of xi 3. this was due to changes in the xi 3 dhtml viewer.
if you've got a test bed with the latest version up still, please try the latest version of webelements [here|Crystal Reports webElements]. that version is .247 and has been tested on xi 3 (latest service pack) and bi 4.0.
the 246 version will not work on bi 4.0. we have no customer feedback for webelements on bi 4.0 as this will be the first release for 4.0. there were recent changes in a fix pack of bi 4.0 which delayed the release of webelements by quite a bit...sorry for that.
there are also a couple of new functions in 247 too.
i hope this helps,
jamie

Business Objects Xi3.1 access to SQL 2005

What level of security does the BO service account need to a SQL 2005 database?
We are having some issue with getting the permissions correct.
Thank you,
Krysta

Hi,
could you please state your problem in more detail. Do you talk about SQL Server as Repository DB or as DB for your reporting ?

CMS is not started, giving up while Insatlling Business Objects XI 3.0

Hi
I am trying to install Business Objects XI 3.0 in Linux. But it is failing at 55% all the time. I checked the log at that time and it is like

and this is repeating till 210 seconds
I have opted for this steps while installing
1. New enterprise install ( enable severs after installation)
2. Default ports
3. Use existing database(oracle).
4. Use existing Java application server, do not deploy web applications.
Please help with your suggestion.

Hi Tim,
I already try installing with MySql and I can see again these messages in my installation log file.
At the moment SAP Support can not give any advice to resolve this problem, do you have any idea why this can be?? and if somebody know anything about the error message that said "method amibiguos" because i believe there is the problem.
These are the resolution sending by SAP, I already try this but still the same.
Symptom
Segmentation fault during the CMS initialization phase of the install
Core file may be created in the <bobje> directory and install will abort
Gdb output of the core file shows the following:
#0 0xf63cdeee in process_next_block () from <install location>/bobje/enterprise120/linux_x86/libWrapCryptoC.so
Reproducing the Issue
1. Launch installation of XIR3 or XIR3.1 on Linux running on AMD Quad Core Opteran chipset
2. Monitor the installation and notice that at approximately 55% during the install the CMS initialization phase will begin
3. CMS initialization will throw a segmentation fault and the installation will abort
Cause
The issue has been identified as a product defect and tracked under ID ADAPT01258674. The defect is in a 3rd party library which is embedded in Business Objects XI3.1 release.
Resolution
Launch the Business Objects XI3.1 installation on Linux.
Wait for the installer to extract the libWrapCryptoC.so file under <install location>/bobje/enterprise120/linux_x86 directory. This will happen well before the install reaches 55% completion.
While the install is running, and before the CMS initialization begins, replace the libWrapCryptoC.so under the <install location>/bobje/enterprise120/linux_x86directory with the modified file (see attached).
Let the install continue and you will see the CMS initialize successfully.
The file is uploaded on the SAP site.
Thanks.

Upgrading CE 10 to Business Objects XIR3 by using Import Wizard

Hi Guys,
We are upgrading Crystal Enterprise 10 to Business Objects XI3, I have installed Business Objects XI3 on a new server, I will be using Import Wizard to import Objects, groups, Users ect... Do I need to copy the contents of the CE10 FRS input and output directories to the BOE XI3 FRS input and output directories?
Please help.
Thanks,
Burhan

Do I need to copy the contents of the CE10 FRS input and output directories to the BOE XI3 FRS input and output directories?
No. Do not do this. The import wizard will migrate your objects and copy them to the FRS in 3.x format for you, nothing manual like this is needed.

Tim

Comparison between Crystal Report Server XI R1, Crystal Report Server XI R1 , Business objects Enterpirse XI R1 and BOXI R2?

Hello Everybody,
I am new to Business Objects Enterprise. I need to know what is differnce between Crystal Report Server XI R1and Crystal Report Server XI R1 ; Business objects Enterpirse XI R1 and BOXI R2?
As a beginner, it will be very much helpful for me to learn in a better way and to go in the right track.
Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
Annapoorani

Annapoorani,
I will start off with the basic difference beteen Crystal Report Server and Business Objects Enterprise. We can continue on after this initial bit of information.
Essentially, Crystal Report Server is a much like a subset of the full Enterprise Product line. Whereas CRS is used for storing and scheduling Crystal Reports, the Enterprise product extends this usability to also include Desktop Intelligence Reports as well as Web Intelligence reports. There are also added features available with the full Enterprise Suite (depending on the licensing and installation) that also provide Performance Management, Dashboards and other enhancements.
In the sence of XI vs XIR2, XIR2 is more up to date with fixes and service packs. You will find the original XI products to be closer to an end of lifecycle when it comes to support.
As well, the newest release not mentioned in your line of questioning is Business Objects XI3.0. Currently this is a java based deployment, but there will be a .NET version forthcoming. Many new features have been added and you can find more information directly at www.businessobjects.com pages. There is a full section on the website that outlines the various products.

What SAP Business Objects Web Services to use with XI3.0

I'm new to BO and is tasked to install it.
What I've installed already is the BOE XI3.0 version and now want to install Xcelsius 2008 Enterprise.
What I can not figure out from the Xcelsius manual or SDN or OSS is what the Business Objects Web Services are the manual instructs you to install with Xcelsius.
I did find something called
BusinessObjects Web Services XI for Windows and downloaded it but is not sure if this is what I need to install as the business Object Web Services on XI 3.0
Can someone please direct me in the correct direction
Thanks in advance
Liezel

Hi,
i am not sure if i understand your question. If you mean Query as a Webservice (QaaWS), this component should be part of your XI 3.0 Enterprise installation. You could also use the flynet (www.flynet.co.uk) which is part of Xcelsius Enterprise 2008 SP1.
Best Regards

Unable to locate Live Office in Business Objects Enterprise XI3.1 download

We recently downloaded Business Objects Enterprise XI 3.1 and plan to upgrade soon. I have been unable to locate the Live Office files. I looked in the collaterals folder. Any response would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Mike

Hello Michael,
I recommend to post this query to the [Integration Kits - Other|BusinessObjects Integration Kits; forum.
This forum is dedicated to topics related to other BusinessObjects Integration Kits, including Siebel, Baan, PeopleSoft, and JD Edwards.
It is monitored by qualified technicians and you will get a faster response there.
Also, all Integration Kit queries remain in one place and thus can be easily searched in one place.
Thanks a lot,

Issue with the Data Type 'Number' in Business Objects

Hi,
I have an Object in the Universe where the Data Type of the Object is a number. This Column pertaining to this Object has certain values in the database out of which there is a 17 Digit Value which is 00000000031101165.
Now, when trying to retreive the same value through Business Objects it is getting rounded off to 00000000031101200 automatically when trying to view in Webi and when trying to retreive the same in Designer/Deski, it displays as 0.000000003110116E+16.
So, I would like to know if there is any other alternative in trying to retreive the Original Value that would not round off. Also, do we have any Limitation for the Data Type Number in Business Objects? The Version we are on is XI3.1.
Note: There are no functions that are used on this Object at the Universe Level and would not like to use any functions here.

What is the underlying database?
It looks like the data is considered to have two decimals, but is rounded to zero decimals.
Only you don't see the number formatting.
Is this a BW query?
Is this a calculated keyfigure?
In the query you can specify the rounding you want and it is also possible to specify it on an infoobject level.
Check those settings...
Hope this helps,
Marianne
PS. Oh, and about the formatting, you can specify a default object format in the universe and override it on the final client (WebI, Crystal)

Any idea??
Architecture

Thanks in advance

the version you have appear to be XI3.1 RTM, which will not be compatible with Win2012.
You can see what's compatible with what in the PAM (Platfroms Support guide) here :

How to reference Business Objects Assembly in C#

For one of our project, we are creating BO Reports (as .REP, .PDF files) and it is automated one using macros. In macros, we are passing parameters to the report.
Now we need to reimplement the same in .NET.
We have installed Business Objects XI Release 2 and selected "Desktop Intelligence" in Client machine.
While trying to create a VS.NET Windows application, we didnt find any assemblies to add and we found COM dll named "Business Objects Library 11.5".
Now, are we referring the right assemby for developing the application? If no, then what is the exact assembly and where it can be downloaded.
Please provide us any samples/links on how to use the .REP file in .NET application.
Thanks in advance

When was Business Objects XI 3.0 GAed??

I am trying to find out when Business Objects XI 3.0 was GAed as my company won't install anything which was being GAed within the last 6 months, I called the Sales number and he told me it is Feb 2007. I highly doubt that since people were only talking about the upcoming XI3.0 release when it was back in mid or late 2007. Therefore, I don't think the Sales is giving me the correct info. Does anyone have a link which I can find out the official GA date? I need something in writing from SAP/BO though. Please advise and thanks.

Business Objects Scheduler Jobs Monitoring

Hi,
Is there a management pack available for integration with System Centre (SCOM) such that we can monitor failed scheduled jobs in Business Objects via SCOM?
Is there any other way to monitor failed scheduled Business Objects jobs straight from the database or via any other method?
Thanks,
Chandan

Hi Chandran,
I'm not a SCOM expert but I understand it is basically a monitoring tool.
Normally you would check for failed schedules in Business Objects using the Instance Manager, to filter for failed scheduled reports. Alternatively you could use the Query Builder to report directly against the XI3.1 Repository and return a list of failed instances.
Above workflows can also be coded into the SDK to provide customised feedback on schedule failures
The final option would be to simply set up email Notifications on the schedules to simply email the Administrator in the event of a schedule failure.
With any of the above options it should be possible to link in your SCOM system to read\monitor from this output.
I hope this helps.
Kind regards,
John

Business Objects Universes generation

Hi everyone,
We wish to install and use Web Intelligence (Business Objects Enterprise Premium). I understand that Web Intelligence requires universes and that they can be generated via Universe Designer or Universe Builder. With these tools, we can generate a universe using the metadata from the source (BW from example).
1. Is having the metadata available at the source a requirement to generate a universe? If not, what are the other options available? Best practices?
2. Is there an integration with Metadata Management? If yes, what's SAP's flagship product for metadata management? Where can I get more info on the subject?
Thank you very much for all your help,
Nathalie

A lot of your questions about SAP Business Objects tools and applications can be found at
1) Go to the [SAP Help Portal|http://help.sap.com].
2) On the top light gray navigation bar, select SAP BusinessObjects.
3) On the top dark gray navigation bar, select All Products.
4) Select the product and version from the dropdown boxes.
Web Intelligence and Universe Designer have separate documentation, even though they're part of the SAP Business Objects Enterprise suite of products.
1. Is having the metadata available at the source a requirement to generate a universe? If not, what are the other options available? Best practices?
In order to create/maintain a Universe in Universe Designer, you have to have a connection to the database or infrastructure where the data being used for reporting resides (e.g. SAP BW or SAP Business Objects Rapid Marts), thereby exposing the source tables for use in a Universe. Metadata isn't required for creating/maintaining Universes in Universe Designer. For Universe Builder, however, metadata or Oracle Analytic Services are required to create Universes.

[Universe Builder XI 3.1 Reference Guide|http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/boexir31/en/xi3-1_universe_builder_guide_en.pdf]
2. Is there an integration with Metadata Management? If yes, what's SAP's flagship product for metadata management? Where can I get more info on the subject?
SAP Business Objects Metadata Management XI 3.1 supports metadata sourcing from SAP SAP BW 7.0. This is now considered the "flagship" metadata management tool for SAP.

Display the login User ID on Header in Business Objects XI R3.1 Infoview

In XI R2 Infoview- the login user ID is displayed on header. However In XI R3.1 infoview- displayed Business Objects Logo on the same place of the Header. We noticed that In BO XI3.1 infoview the login user ID is displayed on header. However the Business Objects logo is displayed on top of the user ID so the user ID is hidden. while Setting the Infoview Application properties in CMC (CMC>Applications>Infoview Application Properties> check Do not display logo) then it will hide the logo and then next login displays the login user ID. Could someone please confirm is it the solution with this configuration or else please help us how to display the user ID on Infoview Header.

Hey,
What you did is exactly correct.
Now you did on XI-R2 and 3.1 right??, whenever you got upgrade to next release of BO version again you have to do the same changing of properties. Which should not be dynamic based on your previous changes on earlier versions.
Thank You!!
