Business Objects and Cognos 8 Controller integration

Hello,
I have a requirement where we need to report Cognos Controller data in Business Objects more specifically our client would like
to explore Cognos Controller data using Business Objects Explorer. I don't have any idea how data is stored in Cognos etc.,
We need to integrate Business Objects and Cognos in some way. Do we have any integration kit for this?
I would appreciate if anyone would share some ideas experiences on this.
Thanks

only way would be an ODBC driver

We've BOJ Data Services XI installed.
Would like to integrate with SAP, does anyone know how or have good information about Business Object and SAP Integration?
Please adivce.

Hi Lynn,
If you need to have Business Objects and SAP work together in conjunction you need to have the Business Objects Integration Kit for SAP. Integration Kit provides the database drivers and other features for reporting off SAP.
Link to download the useru2019s Guide:
- Please go to Http://help.sap.com
- Click on Business Objects tab
- Select the product as Integration Kit for SAP
User guide: Business Objects Integration Kit for SAP Useru2019s Guide.
I hope that helps you.

SAPBI data accessing from Business objects and other OLAP tools

Hi,
We already have heavy usage of Business Object, Essbase and are planning to implement SAPBI 7.0
    a) We are planning to connect our existing Business
        Objects infrastructure onto the new SAPBI platform, Did
        You experience any issues such as performance,
        config issues, delays, web issues.. is there any
        document or link with steps involved in integrating
        Business objects and SAPBI
     b) Can Bex analyzer gives simliar functionalities that
        are in Essabse front- end (EXCEL), I know that the
        backend data managament is quite different, but my
        question is around user interface, do you have any
        comparisons between these two tools.
     c) Is it possible to get data from SAPBI using external
        reporting tools (OLAP) such as Oracle Discoverer ...
Regards,
Raman

if the export to XML file is successful, the file will not be deleted if you are creating it from Metadata Exchange.
The file gets deleted in case you are using the create universe option and by default the file is created in %LINK_DIR%\log\MetadataExchange, you will also see ME_errorlog.txt and ME_outputlog.txt if there are any errors, do you see and erros in these files if you are creating the Universe directly from DS Designer ?
to use Metadata Exchange do the following
Open Data Services Desginer
Click on tools Menu -> Metadata Exchange
In the Metadata Exchange window
Select Export Data Services metadata to a file
Select DI CWM as metadata format
enter location for xml file (C:\temp)
Select the datastore you want to create Universe for
Click OK
Check for file named repo_export.xml in the C:\temp folder or the folder that you specified
Open Universe Builder and Select
Data Integrator bridge
and use the xml file as input to create universe

Difference Between Business Object And Class Object

Hi all,
Can any one tel me the difference between business object and class Object....
Thanks...
..Ashish

Hello Ashish
A business object is a sematic term whereas a class (object) is a technical term.
Business objects are all important objects within R/3 e.g. sales order, customer, invoice, etc.
The business objects are defined in the BOR (transaction SWO1). The have so-called "methods" like
BusinessObject.Create
BusinessObject.GetDetail
BusinessObject.Change
which are implemented (usually) by BAPIs, e.g.:
Business Object = User
User.Create => BAPI_USER_CREATE1
User.GetDetail => BAPI_USER_GET_DETAIL
CONCLUSION: Business Object >< Class (Object)

Uwe

Query on SAP Business Object and Content shipment..

I know about SAP Business Suite... & SAP Business One... But what is :
1. SAP Business Object and
2. Content Shipment
The definitions on the SAP Release & Maintenance Strategy and other docs on SDN were not too clear for my understanding. I want to know why are they used / where are they applied ? E.g: if you have a SAP BW system.. why would you need SAP BW Content ? where does it fit in the picture and what purpose does it serve...
(PS: it would be great if someone can share the product / functionality details of their landscape where these systems are used, how does it benefit the business operations and any other purpose of having them... )
Thanks,

Hi Ashim,
If your client want it to be done in one database, then the answer is no if you do not have any add-on or SDK codes. Most difficult part is authorization since I believe what you mean project here is not the same as project center in B1,
If your client allow more than one database, then the configuration will be easy.
Thanks,
Gordon

Business objects and start events required for CO11N and CO13 transactions

Hi,
We do production order <b>confirmation</b> and <b>cancellation</b> in CO11N and CO13 respectively. Can somebody please tell me the corresponsing business objects and the start events for them? This is a very urgent issue, I will surely rewad good points.
I guess we need to use AFVC_PM object and "finalconfirmation" event for the confirmation.
Please confirm this and kindly suggest the same for cancellation.
Thanks,
Max

Hi Max,
You will have to use the object BUS2005 - which is for Production order.
If you do not have Required events in the BO, you will have to extend object to add those custom events e.g. Cancellation event.
In this case you wil have to use Status management technique for raising events if standad transaction is not raising them.
Hope following SAP Help link might help you to start off..

3) How i can use this web service in external system? what are the prerequisite steps in external system to consume this service in it?
Please anyone have idea about this how to do this and how to achieve this using SDK and custom business object.
Many Thanks
Mithun

Hello Mithun,
Does this section in the documentation help you:
SAP Cloud Applications Studio Help -> Developers Desktop -> Web Services
The entry "Task -> Create a Web Service" describes how to create a Web Service on your own BO
The entry "Task -> Test a Web Service" helps you how you can use it in a foreign tool / application.

Business ByDesign UI: find Business Objects and UI definitions involved

Hello,
I am new to SAP Business ByDesign sdk development. The most difficult part is to identify the right Standard SAP Business Objects and use them the right way.
As I understood from another sdk developer, he has seen on an SAP sdk training that there exists functionality to see/determine in the ByDesign UI the Business Objects and UI definitions involved in a specific UI.
In a test tennant for a customer this functionality is unavailable.
- is this functionality released for customer use?
- how can I activate this functionality myself?
- what are the prerequisites to be able to use this functionality?
thank you for your answers in advance,
Roelof Jan Bouwknegt

Hi Alexandre,
have a look at the Web Dynpro component WDR_TEST_EVENTS, view BG_SIMPLE_IN_MPANE, method WDDOMODIFYVIEW.
Here is a snippet for setting additional customizing or data for a business graphics view-element. Call this from method WDDOMODIFYVIEW.
DATA lr_bg TYPE REF TO cl_wd_business_graphics.
DATA lr_bg_method_handler TYPE REF TO if_wd_busin_graphics_mtd_hndl.
DATA lr_add_cust_xml TYPE REF TO if_ixml_document.
lr_bg ?= ir_view->get_element( <your viewid of business graphic> ).
lr_bg_method_handler ?= lr_bg->_method_handler.
lr_add_cust_xml = get_<your additional customizing/data>.
lr_bg_method_handler->add_direct_customizing(
i_customizing = lr_add_cust_xml

Business Objects and OBIEE

Hi,
Can some one please explain me what are Oracle Business Objects and how is it different to Oracle Business intelligence Enterprise edition.
Also please point me to Oracle Business Objects Documentation.
Appreciate your help on this.
Thanks,
Kiran

Kiran,
Jokes aside, Theres a few documents on how Oracle partner with Business Objects but there is no "Oracle Business Objects" BI product, at least up until end of last year before I left Oracle Consulting BI practice.
Yes SAP Business Objects connects and supports Oracle 10G database functionality, but that would be Oracle DB, not Oracle BI EE.
I seriously doubt they would launch ANOTHER BI tool with the same application name as a competitor?
I hope you can get the information you are seeking.
