Business Objects Enterprise XI 3.1 Planning Guide

Hi All
Can i have document fro BOXI Planning guide?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
as far as I know there is no XI 3.1 version for the BusinessObjects Planning software. I would recommend to look for the documentation of SAP BPC (planning and consolidation tool).
You can find this here: [http://service.sap.com/bosap-support]. Navigate to Documention->Product Guides and select SAP BPC in the Product drop-down list.

    Hi
    A lot of Business Object guides refer to the "Business Objects Enterprise Administrator's guide", which I have not been able to find at SAP's support portal nor SDN. Anyone who knows how to find this guide?

  • Crystal Reports Server XI - A subset of Business Objects Enterprise?

    Post Author: RVM
    CA Forum: General
    I'm evaluating Crystal Reports Server XI with a view to fulfilling the reporting requirements of my Client. I've identified Crystal Reports Server XI as the ideal solution and have been looking for documentation that describes the constituents of CRS XI and the architecture of the product from a technical perspective. I haven't been able to locate an administrators guide for CRS XI similar to the one available for crystal Enterprise 10 and Business Objects Enterprise XI R2. I've read that CRS XI is a subset of Business Objects Enterprise XI and as such has the same arichitecture. COuld some please clarify what constituents of BO Enterprise XI also reside within CRS XI?
    Thanks in advance,

    It is kind of annoying that they didn't bother to create any documentation for Crystal Server XI.I've used both products and the key difference is that Crystal Server XI is limited to 20 user licenses (combination of either named or concurrent types) so if you have a very large user environment then your only choice may be BO XI.In terms of development and deployment the key difference between the 2 is that BO XI allows you to create universes.  Which in terms allows you to use the Webi functionality.  You can still use webi in Crystal Server but that's kind of pointless as the only universes you will be able to report off are sample universes.  Within Crystal Server you will still have all the functionality that exist in BO XI with the exception of the universes so you can still build business views, list of values, schedule reports, create custom calenders, etc.  So if you were to just snip out everything that deals with universes in the BO XI admin guide you'd have the Crystal Server admin guide.

  • Business Objects Enterprise SDK application.

    Hi All,
    I am planning to develop a custom web application using BOE 3.1 java SDK's.
    I would like to create only application level users, these users would be mapped with a single BO user account to create enterprise session.
    That means, My application "A" will have say 10 users (i.e. 10 userid and passwords). All these users will their different sets of userid's and passwords (custom application users), they can login into the application using application level credentials,  however to login into the enterprise the application will internally use only one BO user credential (i.e. only one named user acount info.)
    eg:
    user1-login -> application>logins using BO userX userid and password>BO Enterprise session created
    user2-login -> application>logins using BO userX userid and password>BO Enterprise session created
    user3-login -> application>logins using BO userX userid and password>BO Enterprise session created
    and so on.
    The idea is to purchase only one named user licence and create many application level users to login into BOE; but using the same BO user account.
    Is this approach legal in-terms of licensing?
    Would appreciate any help on this.
    Regards,
    Jon

    Hello Adam,
    Thank you very much.
    Please see the following post:
    Business Objects Enterprise 3.1 Licensing
    Tim says:
    names means you can have five users created, any amount logged on concurently (i.e the administrator could have 10 sessions, usera 20 etc no limit) But you can only create 5 different users names
    that means 1 Named user eg: 'A'  can login into the enterprise using his credentials and create any amount of enterprise sessions concurrently for self right??
    Each named user is for a specific user and not to be shared. If you were using concurrent user licensing, than this would be ok to use one enterprise user account.
    5 Concurrent linceses means one user account created in enterprise but, account info can be shared with 5 users, so they can login using same credentials and create five different enterprise sessions?? right?
    so, I can purchase one- 5 concurrent user license and share it with 5 users? OR purchase 5 named user licences and share it with 5 users?
    Either ways my understanding is number of users=number or linceses available (named or concurrent). please correct me if I am wrong.
    Now, which one is cost effective named user lincenses or concurrent?
    Awaiting your response.

  • Business Objects Enterprise XI  3.1 Compatability

    Hi,
    We are currently using Business Objects Enterprise XI  3.1 and are migrating to a new server. The new build is running Windwos server 2012 with SQL Server 2008 R2. Will BO be compatible with the new build since we want to install it on the new server and not just point all the ties to the new server.
    Thanks!

    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 :
    SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI - Supported Platforms

  • Supported Operating Systems for Business Objects Enterprise

    I am unable to locate information on the supported operating systems platforms for Business Objects Enterprise version (11.0.0.1775) build (1775) within the BO support documentation.
    I want to know if this version of BO is supported on AIX (xlC.aix50.rte version 8)?

    Not sure which exact version is 11.0.0.1775, but it's definitively BO XI release 1, so I guess this document is your best guide:
    http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc/index?rid=/library/uuid/a03454bd-a03e-2b10-98b7-fc11486d87bf

  • Business Objects Enterprise 11.5 FTP Transfer Problem

    Hello,
    Hopefully someone out there will be familiar with the issue I'm having and be able to provide a solution.
    We are running Business Objects Enterprise 11.5 on our Windows 2003 server.  I've created and scheduled a job on the server that creates an XLS file containing loan portfolio data that is to be transmitted to a third party client on a monthly basis.
    The problem centers around the method of transfer, which is via FTP to a secure site hosted by the client.  When executed through Crystal, the FTP actually does achieve a successful login using the credentials the client provided (we have verified this repeatedly by looking at the logs), but the client's server "kicks out" when we attempt any operation on it.
    A similar result was produced when we attempted to FTP to the site via the Windows command line.  The login was successful, but even a simple command to view the directory "dir" resulted in the connection being rejected.   To make a long story short, after reviewing the issue extensively with the client's technical department, our conclusion was that the problem was the result of the FTP sending in "active" mode instead of "passive".  We confirmed this by installing a freeware FileZilla on the same server, and switching between active and passive modes (active failed, passive did not).
    Their tech people recommended that we contact SAP to get answers to two questions, which I'm hoping someone out there may know:
    1)  How does Business Objects Enterprise 11.5 execute the FTP process?  Is it using its own native logic or simply invoking the command line?
    2)  Is there any setting with the console that would enable us to modify the FTP settings to send force it to send in passive mode?
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    This is a known limitation. BO only supports active mode for FTP. Refer 1782115 - Which FTP mode is supported as a schedule or publication destination for reference.
    If you are able to write a batch file or a program object to transfer a file from a file location to Client FTP, you can try the below workaround.
    1. Add the script\batch file as a program object in BO. In the script make sure you include the code to delete the instance after it is successfully transmitted through FTP.
    2. Create a File event pointing to the location along with the name of the instance.
    3. Schedule the report to the file location with the specific instance name.
    4. Schedule the program object based on the file event you created in step 2.
    Hope this helps.

  • Business Objects Enterprise Licensing for Crystal Reports

    I am new to Business Objects & Crystal Reports. I have recently been given the repsonsibility of supporting our BO XI R2 environment. This system is not in production yet, but initial use has shown an inability to create a crystal report.
    If I select Crystal Reports Explorer in Business Objects Enterprise Applications, I get the following error:
    "You do not have the correct keycode installed to use this option. Please contact your support office for further details."
    I informed my boss who provided me with a "Crystal Reports Explorer Windows XI R2 License CPU English" keycode.
    I entered this keycode in the License keys correctly. The license reflects "BusinessObjects Crystal Reports Explorer" but does not show any licenses - just dashes for named users, concurrent users, processors, expires...
    I still get the same error when accessing the Crystal Reports Explorer.
    Am I missing something here? Is there more that I need to do, or is there a problem with the keycode?

    Please post this query to the Business Objects Enterprise Administration forum:

  • Use of MYSQL when installing Business Objects Enterprise XI 3.1

    Hello Team,
    I am quite new Business Objects and right now I am using Business Objects Enterprise XI 3.1.
    when installing BO XI 3.1, I was prompted to select the database server to be created. I chose MySQL.
    Now, I am curious to know the pupose/involvement of a database server for BO. I understand that the database is being managed/used by CMS and it has four main functions:
    Maintains security (users)
    Manages objects (folders, reports, and program objects)
    Manages servers (services)
    Manages auditing (system auditor).
    Is there any better explanation to the database and its purpose?
    what does the database schema/user holds (any database objects,tables,etc..,)?
    Does repository and database schema the same?
    Are all the report objects, users and universe being stored in the database schema?
    Thanks in advance for the reply.
    Regards,
    Kathir

    CMS handles security and routes the request to other services.
    Yes, CMS also maintains the BOE repository.
    CMS is responsible for authenticating users and groups, and keeping track of the availability of the other BusinessObjects Enterprise services. If CMS is down then users wont be able to log into BOE.
    Report Objects, Universe are stored in the Input File Repository and the instances are stored in Output File Repository server.
    In simple words, CMS is like heart of BOE.

  • Upgrading from Crystal Enterprise 10 to Business Objects Enterprise 11

    Here's the situation:
    We decided to upgrade from Crystal Enterprise 10 on server A to Business Objects Enterprise 11 on server B. We went with the method of importing all the objects and users from Crystal Enterprise 10 to Business Objects Enterprise 11. The import also brought in all the DB connection settings that were set in Crystal Enterprise 10. I also brought over all the ODBC System DSNs so that those can be consisten with the old server.
    The problem we are having is that the reports are failing due to the connections to the database. I thought importing the database connection settings from Crystal Enterprise 10 along with bringing over the ODBC System DSNs would not make this an issue but it hasn't.
    I checked the server logs in SQL and it's telling me that it's trying to log into the server as NT AUTHORITY\ANONYMOUS LOGON. Shouldn't it try to log under whatever I define in the report's database settings or ODBC System DSNs?
    These same reports work fine in Crystal Reports and Crystal Enterprise 10.
    Edited by: Gingerbread Man on Feb 9, 2010 10:41 AM

    go into the properties of the report and verify that the Database Login values are still set.  I found that it doesn't always transfer those when doing the import.

  • Crystal Reports published on Business Objects Enterprise Server

    Hi all,
    I am having a few difficulties after i save my crystal report to the Business Objects Enterprise Server XI 3.1.
    1) for the reports with static parameters the "Crystal Reports Print Control" doesbnot work. It gets stuck and i guess cannot load the print function. Don't know what exactly causes it but i made two similar one field reports and saved them to the server. One with a dynamic parameter and the other with a static parameter.
    The report with static parameter could not be printed.
    This happens when i use the HTML viewer for crystal reports. I cannot use the activeX or Java viewers as they mess up the formatting of my Arabic reports.
    2) For some reports i get one type of parameter screen (like we get while running through the designer) while for other reports i get a different type of Parameter Entry Screen. Sometimes when i view the report first time i get the former type of parameter screen and when i refresh the report i get the later screen.
    3) Also my dynamic parameters are not showing all the values when the reports are saved to the above mentioned server. On my desktop i made the LOV registry tweak and it works fine. I did the same tweak on server registry but it is not working.
    Thanks a lot even if u read it

    Hi,
    here are some answers:
    1. Well for the Installation of the Software as itself (not the databases) i would recommend at least 30 GB. All the Reports are getting stored physically in the installation directory. This behavior is by default. Later you can move the FileStore (where the Reports, Universes, etc. are located in) to a NAS share f.e.
    With Regards to the Databases i would recommend 1 GB for the CMS DB and 5 GB for the Audit DB. It depends on how you Audit your System. If you audit more actions, more information in the Audit DB will be stored.
    2. 2 Schemas on one DB is fine
    3. Usually you run a BOE installation on UNIX/LINUX under an installation user. BOE will be installed into his Home Directory.
    Regards
    -Seb.
