Business Objects Developement environement Setup

Hi Experts,
I am designing Business Objects Universe in 3.1 version with SQL severe database.we don't have development setup for Business Objects Tool,Can any one suggest me how to do that.
The data is coming from 2 different servers can i have to make TWO connection is it fine with one connection it self, if it one connection can i have to Built 2 universe?
Thanks,
Gowtham

Hi
If data is coming from 2 different systems ...you need to create two different connections and two different universes.
otherwise you need to upgrade from BO 3.1 to 4.1...then you can build only one universe using multiple source enabled option using relational connection.
or you need to develop one more server 3 combining with Server 1 and server 2 and then on top of server 3 ...you can develop single universe. but i suggest upgrade from 3.1 to 4.1

Business Objects Resource Requirements

I have a Business Objects Deployment questions. We are on SAP BI 7.0 & ECC6.0.
We have a specific business need where users want to have a adhoc reporting tool where they can do OLAP reporting on data from BW, SAP ECC/R3 and their local Excel/database files.
In order to cater that we are planning to use BO for our adhoc reporting needs and BO proposed their Web intelligence product for adhoc reporting.
I need to verify the no of additional resources(for budgeting purposes) needed to maintain BO?
BO told us that we don't need any as once the deployment is done and universes have been setup(for that we will hire a consulting company) we don't need any resources. We think they are over simplifying it. I want to know what are the daily maintenance/operation tasks, Enhancements, SAP Basis tasks required in BO. Will it possible for a single resources to handle BW & BO, giving 50% of his time to each or 75-25% respectively?
I know the requirement is quite vague but your opinion or any additional info/links will be appreciated.

Mark,
Based on my data warehouse experience, Business Objects environment continues to evolve. So, you may want to consider one full time resource for long term. You can also have one of your full time resources trained by the consultants you bring in. Just my two cents.
In medium to big deployments there are different Business Obejcts roles.
Business Objects Architect --> Sizing, Strategy, licensing etc.
Business Objects Administrator --> general admin, troubleshooting, security infrastructure and maintenance etc.
Business Objects developer(s) --> universe design, report design etc.
Since your deployment is not that big, I can see that initially one person can handle it. If you like, you can handle it all yourself. Of course it will be slow in the beginning, but keep in mind that data warehouse environments tend to grow and before you know you'll be occupied. After all it is about ad-hoc reporting and not canned reporting.
I hope this helps.

Solution Manager and Business Object

Hi all,
Have you seen any specific information (from SAP or others) indicating how SAP plan to integrate the Business Object Products into Solution Manager?
First of all I need information about the SOLAR01/02 transactions (e.g. will separate Business Objects development objects become available? Will ASAP be extended to include Business Objects Projects?)
Secondly I would like to know if the Operations scenario also will be enhanced in order to include Business Objects Solutions?
Any informations/links/etc. would be welcome
Thanks in advance
Peter Michael

Hi,
SOLAR01 - Business Blueprint
SOLAR02 - Configuration.
Implementation projects are projects to select and implement business processes in an SAP landscape. A Business Blueprint documents these business process requirements of a company. Collaborative business processes involve several companies
The Business Blueprint provides a common strategy of how your business processes are to be mapped into one or more SAP systems. The Business Blueprint documents in detail the scope of business scenarios, business processes, process steps, and the requirements of an SAP solution implementation.
A Business Blueprint comprises the following structure elements in a hierarchy:
Organizational Units
Master data
Business scenarios
Business processes
Process steps
You assign content, for example, project documentation, Business Configuration Sets or transactions, to individual structure elements, in the SAP Solution Manager.
SOLAR02(Configuration) configures the process requirements specified in the Business Blueprint phase, in the system. If you use objects from the Business Process Repository in your own structures, some of them are already assigned to transactions and BC Sets. If you create structures independently, i.e. without objects from the Business Process Repository, you can assign transactions in the transaction Business Blueprint. You can assign BC Sets, IMG objects and test cases/business test requirements, in the transaction Configuration.

Implementation Business Objects in CAF and developing WDJ application

Hi Experts,
I've read some articles about SAP CE CAF from SDN and I'm making some exercises according those guidence. Right now I have a problem and want to get suggestion from you.
As you know, from CE 7.1.1, the CAF support importing the Business Object through EJB model. So when develop a WDJ application using caf, we can using these procedures:
(Implementing business objects in CAF and developing WebDynpro application)
1) Create business objects or application service.
2) Generate EJB Implementation class for business objects or app service.
3) Create a WebDynpro application
4) Importing the EJB model using the template.
5) Create the UI for the app.
My problem is: In the business object or application serivice, if the operation parameter type is integer, after we generate the EJB class, the type will changed to String. After the WDJ UI is created, the application test failed. The integer field could not passed to the BO successfully.
If all the parameters type are string in the operation, there's no problem. But when I use Integer or Date, the EJB class will change the type and the WDJ app will failed.
I've also test the scenario in CE enviroment including 7.3 also failed. So I'm a little confused which step was wrong. I don't know whether you've seen such problem before, if you could give any suggestion, it'll be very appreciated!

Hi, Winters.
I got the same program, try to parse into the type which you want in AS operation.

Classes developed in ECC6 by SAP to load these business objects

Hi All,
I have created a class and i want Classes developed in ECC6 by SAP to load these business objects.
Please help me,
Thanks

Thanks to All,
Sorry I could not reply you back soon as I busy and I though before I reply you back let me do some HW myself. Below are my findings.
We are using Forms 6i, we went through an upgrade from 9.3 to 9.7 recently because of the DST as 9.3 is not capable of taking those patches. We are also using an object library but object inherited from the library are OK.
All objects part of the “tmplate” related to “visual attributes” are the main problem. I can see the code for attached triggers.
Example:
FRM-18108: Failed to load the following objects.
Source Module:tmplate
Source Object: WHEN-WINDOW-RESIZED
Form level trigger:
begin
SET_RUNFORM_PROPERTIES; -- (this is a library procedure)
exception
when form_trigger_failure then
raise form_trigger_failure;
end;
I tried creating a form with the same name as “tmplate” and created a form level trigger WHEN-WINDOW-RESIZED, complied and saved it in the same directory as all the other forms, but still this object was not attached.
The most critical are the “visual attributes” when I check the properties it has nothing, no properties are inherited.
I converted the fmb to fmt and this is what I found for the visual attribute, LOV_SELECTION_LIST.
DEFINE F50T
BEGIN
TP = 738
TI = 9
TN = 328
TV = <<"LOV_SELECTION_LIST">>
END
DEFINE FRM50_IDFO
BEGIN
IDFOS_POI = 902
IDFOS_OID = 908
IDFOS_NAM = <<"LOV_SELECTION_LIST">>
IDFOS_TYP = 74
IDFOS_OOI = 1
IDFOS_OPN = 355
IDFOS_CNT = 2
END
Is this something that can be converted back to actual properties?
Thanks to all once again,
Have a nice weekend...

Transfer of business object from development server to testing server

if i want to transfer business object from development server to testing server how can i do that?
what is the system landscape?
what is business object?

Hi Rizwan,
U can get details of Business Objects in tcode - SWO1.
Business objects are real world entities modeled as objects in an information system.
Business objects encapsulate both data structures and the functions applied to the data, but hide their full complexity from other objects. This encapsulation of data and functions makes it easier to modify program components, because you can program with the relevant entities without having to know all the implementation details. You can also reuse existing functions.
Client programs access business objects by reading their attributes, or by calling the methods that make up the objectu2019s interface:
Attributes
Attributes describe the data stored in an object through a set of properties. They provide direct read access to the data structures of objects, but client programs cannot change them from outside.
Methods
Methods provide a way to encapsulate the data structures of business objects, and to process them. When accessing an object, the client program calls a method with parameters and gets back return parameters.
Interface
The interface is the set of methods associated with a business object, and determines how an object interacts with the outside world.
The client program defines the object types to be used and, at runtime, creates object instances of those object types.

BI-IP and Business Objects?

Please refer to the thread:
BI-IP and Business Objects?

Ian,
reading through the messages, there seem to be a few questions that are raised. After attending SAP Financials 2008, here is what I got from it:
1. IP vs BPC: IP is still in production and will be developed (no commitment on time though. I was told somewhere between 18-24 months before it goes to maintenance mode). There is some functionality difference from BPC and right now these are two separate products. There is a talk of a possible integration in the "distant" future
2. BPC is in process of being developed for BI, but currently it is only running on top of Microsoft SQL server. The BI version is slated to be released June 28th, but majority of the experts are fairly pessimistic about that date.
Now, the main question is what will happen to IP when BEx and BO tools converge into one - based on my understanding, we are going to see ADDITIONAL functionality. Since all the WAD and Excel activities are based on BEx API's, it is highly unlikely that they are going to be dismissed in the new product. The process in which we assign functions/commands to the planning model might change, but I think only for the best

Performance issue with Business Objects Java JRC API in CRXI R2 version

A report is developed using java JRC API in CR XI release 2. When I generate the report in the designer, it took less than 5 seconds to display the results in crystal report viewer inside the designer. But in the QA environment, when I generate the same report from the application, it takes almost 1 to 1.5 minutes to display the same results in PDF. I also noticed that if the dataset contains bigger volume of data, then the reports are taking even longer almost 15 to 20 minutes.
While generating the report from the application, I noticed that most of time is taken during the execution of the com.crystaldecisions.report.web.viewer.ReportExportControl Object method as shown in following line of code
exportControl.processHttpRequest(request, response, context, null)
We thought the delay in exporting the report to PDF might be the layout of the report and data conversion to PDF for such a bigger volume of data.
Then we investigated the issue and experimented quickly to generate the same report with same result set data from the application using XML, XSL and converted the output XSL-FO to PDF using Apache FOP (Formatting Objects Processor) implementation. The time taken to export the report to PDF is less than 6 seconds. By doing this experiment, it is proved that the issue is not with conversion of data to PDF but it is the performance problem with Business Objects Java JRC API in CR XI R2.
In this regard, I searched for the above issue in the SAP community Network Forums -> Crystal Reports and Xcelsius -> Java Development -> Crystal Reports. But I did not find any answers or solutions for this kind of issue in the forums.
Any suggestion, hint in this matter is very much appreciated.

Ted, The setReportAppServer problem is resolved. Now I could able to generate the report with hardcoded values in the SQLs in just 6 seconds where as the same report was generated in CRXI R2 in 1 minute 15 seconds as mentioned in the earlier message.
But, our exisiting application passes the parameter values to the SQLs embedded in the report. For some reason the parameters are not being passed to the report and the report displays only the labels without data.
As per the crj 12 samples codes, the code is written as shown below.
1. Created ReportClient Document
2. SetReportAppServer
3. Open the report
4. Getting DatabaseController and switching the database connection at runtime
5. Then setting the parameters as detailed below
ParameteFields parameterFieldController = reportClientDoc.getDataDefController().getParameterFieldController();
parameterFieldController.setCurrentValue("", "paramname",paramvalue);
parameterFieldController.setCurrentValue("", "paramname",paramavalue);
byteArrayInputStream = (ByteArrayInputStream)reportClientDoc.getPrintOutputController().export(ReportExportFormat.PDF);
6. Streaming the report to the browser
Why the parematers are not being passed to the report? Do I need to follow the order of setting these parameters? Did I miss any line of code for setting Params using crj 12?
Any help in this regard would be greatly appreciated.

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

Need toughts on approach. Client moving to Maconomy/Business Objects

Post Author: klokhammer
CA Forum: General Feedback
Hi.On of our important clients are most likely to migrate between economy systems within the next 9 months. Case as follows:
We have developed a budgeting/forecast and reporting system for a certain market/company. The solution is based on a Microsoft SQL 2000 database/server with Microsoft Access as application interface. The solution is integrated and gets actual figures from the economy system Aspect on a IBM iSeries (AS400) system. The "edge" of the system lies in sophisticated budgeting/forecast routines, the report module is rather poor....
The client is now most likely to migrate to Maconomy as the new economy system, and Maconomy AnalytiX as the new BI system (which I understand uses Business Objects.)
We are new to Business Objects and need general recommendations on what level we should try to integrate on. Should we "ditch" all the development done in Access and build a new solutions through Business Objects, keeping all the business logics, but not the interface?
Should we try to integrate on a database level, keeping the interface in Access (for budgeting/forecast), and exporting data into Business Objects to allow reporting through Maconomy AnalytiX?
As you most likely have understood, my knowledge about Business Objects are pretty poor. But please try to give me your thoughts on how we should move along, and what kind of "standard" considerations we must have in mind.
Kind regardsklokhammer

klokhammer,
I checked out Macanomy's web site and searched for references to Business Objects, and sure enough it is mentioned here and there. What it sounds like is that Macanomy has developed some "Macanomy Standard Reports" using BusObjects, so if you want these nifty Macanomy reports available to you, you buy the Macanomy product, which is bundled w/ BusObjects, and voila you have the reports. It sounds like a winning strategy. On the other hand, in order to get this type of capability, an organization would have to hire a staff to purchase and install Business Objects, then the staff would have to understand the financial database that the client has established and populated, and then the staff would have to set about building the reports that are needed. With Macanomy, it seems that you get the whole kit and kaboodle in one swoop, which is good for an organization providing that it is on the same wave-length as Macanomy. In regards to your question about what to do with your existing infrastructure, this is a call only you and your client can make. In IT, it's always about the data and how it is used. Peeling back the onion a bit, the process works like this: in order for the Macanomy reports to work, the report must be properly built and it must read from a "universe", which is a BusObjects term for defining the interface between the user and the database (the meta data process). In order for the universe to exist, it must be built by a "Universe Designer". The Universe Designer must have an intracate knowledge of how every table in the database will be used to support the reports that the end-user wants to have (either pre-canned (standard) or ad hoc capability). The database is still a critical piece, and reviewing the Macanomy offering I have a funny feeling that they come in with their own database structure and universe, which makes their process a much quicker install. The downside, as it appears to me, is how you would migrate your existing data into the Macanomy structure (this goes back to the two parties being on the same wavelength). I think in your case it's going to be a matter of ditching your database structure in MS SQL 2000 and Access, and adopting the Macanomy structure, but this may be more painful to do than any one at this point realizes. It sounds like you need to continue arming yourself with knowledge before making any final decisions. Good luck, and perhaps keep all of us posted on your experiences.

Problems with Java and Business Objects

Hello everybody, I'm new in BusinessObjects/Crystal Report. Now, I have some problems with Business Objects for Java (Business Objects XI Release 2 Developer). 1) I create a report in the report designer. This report has a parameterfield. Before I run this report within a jsp web application I want fill the parameterfield with some values from the database. I found the following code snippet for this problem in your forum. But it don't works right, because it occurs a simple input field instead of a combo box with my database values. Where is my mistake? I need the combo box! (In debug mode I saw that the parameterfield was filled with my data!)<%@page import="com.crystaldecisions.report.web.viewer.CrystalReportViewer,com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.application.ReportClientDocument, com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.application.OpenReportOptions, com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.lib.ReportSDKExceptionBase, java.io.IOException, java.sql.Connection, java.sql.DriverManager, java.sql.ResultSet, java.sql.SQLException, java.sql.Statement, java.util.Locale, com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.application.DataDefController, com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.data.FieldDisplayNameType, com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.data.ParameterField, com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.data.ParameterFieldDiscreteValue, com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.data.Values, com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.reportsource.IReportSource"%><% try { String reportName = "avoParameterfeld.rpt"; ReportClientDocument clientDoc = (ReportClientDocument) session.getAttribute(reportName); if (clientDoc == null) { // Report can be opened from the relative location specified in the CRConfig.xml, or the report location // tag can be removed to open the reports as Java resources or using an absolute path // (absolute path not recommended for Web applications). clientDoc = new ReportClientDocument(); clientDoc.setReportAppServer("inproc:jrc"); // Open report clientDoc.open(reportName, OpenReportOptions._openAsReadOnly); // Connection Info for fetching the resultSet String connectStr = "jdbc:oracle:thin:@it1srv19:1521:itoracle"; String driverName = "oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver"; String userName = "user"; String password = "password"; // TODO: Ensure this query is valid in your database.

I used the method 'setDataSource(ResultSet rs, String oldTableAlias, String newTableAlias)' of the 'DatabaseController'. I got a message like this: 'At present in Java reporting Component does not implement'. I use JRC and the docs (http://support.businessobjects.com/global/interactive/xi/om/JRC/default.html) show me this method. Is it not possible to change the data at runtime in JRC? (I tried it with the methods 'setDataSource(IXMLDataSet rs, String oldTableAlias, String newTableAlias)', 'setDataSource(Object newds)', 'setDataSource(IDataSet ds, String oldTableAlias, String newTableAlias)', too. But the result was the same!) 3) I tried to use Business Objects in JSF framework (Ver MyFaces 1.1.3) with the same samples above. But in JSF nothing work! I got the following exception. What is my problem?

Which Business Objects are you referring to.
MS .NET has a thing called Business Objects but they only work in .NET.

Error while generating the Business Object in Mobile Sales

Hi,
I made changes to the Business Object BOCAPGEN.
Now I am trying to generate the business object but it is giving out the error saying
Error intializing RT Generator !.RT Generator Failed for ".Error arsrep.dat is in use so Generation cannot be done
I am not a MSA Developer and have no clue regarding MAS(Mobile Application Studio)
So any one can please give me a clue regarding the issue
I have solved it by closng all other application other than client console
Thanks Guys

Hi !
1 year later, I am facing the same problem.
I want to build MSA 4.0 SP8, everything runs fines until the end of the generation of the Tiles, the next step fails :
Error intializing RT Generator !.RT Generator Failed for ".Error arsrep.dat is in use so Generation cannot be done
Then around 10 thousands of error messages of that kind follow in the output window ; howeverin the end it says "Generation End" without telling whether it was successful or not (the first time the output window was too small, I thought all was OK )
Anyways, the Mobile Sales icon appeared on the desktop and when I try to launch it I get the error "Starting MobileSalesfailed".
During another attempt, I check with "Unlocker" the 2 arsrep.dat files I found under the BOL directory, it reported that none was used and locked at that moment.
Also I killed the vbagen.exe process before starting the build, but it was automatically launched after. (first build was launched after a reboot, the 2nd after the 1st failed + vbagen.exe process killed)
Does anyone have any clue ?
Another question is : what are the rights required ? I am a local administrator but I do not have full admin rights (the only thing I saw at the moment is I cannot access to Add/Delete Programs in the Control Panel)
Thanks & Regards,
François
-edit-
thanks to the one who moved it to the right forum

Report works in Designer client, but not after published to Business Objects server

Has this happened to anyone else? I have a couple of reports that work perfectly on my pc in the Designer client. I can export them to whatever format I need, and they work. When I save them to the Business Objects server, everything appears to be ok. The thumbnail on the properties tab shows the correct report with a page full of data. When I preview and when I schedule the report to run, I get incorrect data. In one case, I get an empty report. In another case, I get data, just wrong data and way too much of it. I've got hundreds of other reports that were developed and published the same way that are working correctly. Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

There may be couple of reasons. What is your data source? Verify the database in the report and check it again. Or to do more crosschecking, Create a simple report using the same database and deploy in BOE.
