Business Objects housekeeping activities

Hi,
I would like to know the Business Objects housekeeping activities for a support project from the application point of view. Is there any check list that needs to be followed? The version that is being used is 3.1 SP3. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Sukumar

Hi,
Cause of this issue :
Once the Job Server recieves the scheduled job and spawns a new child process, the child process is unable to complete the job. The child process constantly is waiting to load the job. Looking further into the log and specifically the startup script, the -port option was incorrectly used (-restart-port) and didn't allow the child process to bind to the correct port using the correct DNS name.
In Order to resolve this issue follow the steps given below..
1.Open CCM
2. Stop Server
3. Right Click Server and go to Properties
4. insert -port option in to command line, example below
ex. "
win2k3\C$\ProgramFiles\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 11.5\win32_x86\JobServerFullClient.exe" -service -name win2k3.Desktop_IntelligenceJobServer -ns win2k3 -objectType CrystalEnterprise.FullClient -lib pp_procFC -jsTypeDescription "Desktop Intelligence Job Server" -maxDesktops 0 -restart -port win2k3.it.bo.example
5. Save setting and restart server.
Hope it helps.

How to find the bapi about Activities business object...

Hi All
can you tell me about information about Activities business object
iam using SAP CRM..

Hi KP,
can you tell us the name of the transaction in which you saw this field?
If it is in PO Creation or Change you can probably look at the bapis

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

BAPIs or Function Modules for Links between different Business Objects

Hi experts,
I am accessing an SAP CRM 5.0 system from outside via remote function calls.
I have the GUID of a business partner and would like to find other business objects
that are related to this business partner.
For example:
- Which activities are relevant for this business partner?
- Which orders were placed by this business partner?
- Which leads or opportunities are linked to this business partner?
- Which products did this business partner order?
Is it possible to get this information by calling BAPIs or other RFC function modules?
Regards,
Karsten

After studying lots of documentation and trying to understand the BOL and GenIL concepts,
I finally found a function module which meets my demands. With function module
CRM_GENIL_GET_QUERY_RESULT you can execute a Search Object of the GenIL,
and it is remote-enabled.
By checking transaction GENIL_MODEL_BROWSER and choosing component set "ALL"
you get a list of all defined Search Objects. The Search Object that finds all orders of a
business partner is "BTQuery1O".
DATA gt_parameter_list TYPE crmt_name_value_pair_tab.
DATA gs_parameter_list TYPE crmt_name_value_pair.
DATA gt_data_hdr       TYPE TABLE OF crmt_genil_rfc_data_hdr.
DATA gt_data_attr      TYPE TABLE OF crmt_genil_rfc_data_attr.
DATA gt_data_rels      TYPE TABLE OF crmt_genil_rfc_data_rel.
DATA gt_data_rel_obj   TYPE TABLE OF crmt_genil_rfc_data_rel_obj.
gs_parameter_list-name = 'BP_NUMBER'.
gs_parameter_list-value = '4000000011'.
APPEND gs_parameter_list TO gt_parameter_list.
CALL FUNCTION 'CRM_GENIL_GET_QUERY_RESULT'
EXPORTING
    iv_query_name                = 'BTQuery1O'
    it_parameter_list            = gt_parameter_list
TABLES
    et_data_hdr                  = gt_data_hdr
    et_data_attr                 = gt_data_attr
    et_data_rels                 = gt_data_rels
    et_data_rel_obj              = gt_data_rel_obj
EXCEPTIONS
    error_occured                = 1
    OTHERS                       = 2.
Before you can use the function module, you have to call function module CRM_GENIL_INIT
to initialize the GenIL.

Business Object Modeler Question

Hi Experts,
I'm new to CE and currently trying to figure out what can I do with it?
Assume that I'm planning to create an application to follow activities that our consultants doing.
For this, we're planning to use Local Portal Database to store datas.
When I checked, "Business Object Modeler" is a tool which helps to create business objects and generates tables behind and access services automatically.
Then generating a Web Service for this BO and then using the WS with VC and WD4J is a great asset for us.
But, my questions?
1. Is this a right approach for such scenario?
2. I've created a sample BO and generated WS and tried to use with VC. Create, Delete, Reand and Update Operations can be made available for WebService, but I'm unable to add FindAll or FindByMultiple Parameter operations to Web Service?
Any idea for Q1 and answer for Q2 will be appreciated.
Regards

Hi,
Yes, You have to arite the code.Actually, Application services are the place where you will wrtie your business logic.
In th application service operations you have to call the business object operations.
For architechturel guidelines you can go [through thii doc|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/00caf8bd-487a-2a10-36a9-93d840309310].
answer to second question:
You can't change the code in the BO operations. What ever you want, you have to do it in the application servcies only.
Create an application service operation say:
operation(). Create a input/output data structures.
Exapmle: OperationResponce operation(OperationRequest).
Yuor lists add to the OperationRequest datatype. Similarly for OperationResponce also. In this case you don,t have any issues.Actually this is the standered for Web Services.
[This document|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/f0d97ec6-5de0-2a10-a5b3-b5926075566c], you can use as an example

Scope of Business Objects in MDM

Hi MDM Experts
What is the scope of Business Objects in MDM,
How MDM can leverage its features and functionalities by using Business Objects.
Regards
Gaurav

Hi
I know that "MillerCoors" was using SAP MDM & BO DQ
The comparison between SAP MDM & BO DQ capabilities are listed below. Putting it straight.
1) Both have data quality capabilities. Validations for SAP MDM & Transforms for BO DQ. But the capabilities of BO DQ are much stronger than SAP MDM
2) Both have de-duplication functionalities. While SAP MDM does not provide fuzzy matching capabilities, you more effectively find duplicates using BO DQ. But, merging of records, selecting individual fields for merged record is not possible in BO DQ. SAP MDM has an upper hand here.
3) Data enrichment is not possible in SAP MDM. BO DQ has built in dictionaries for Address check, zip codes etc.
Both tools have capabilities to connect to third party service like D&B. SAP MDM via the Enrichment Controller & DQ via web services.
4) Data Management workflow capabilities of integrating users, data stewards in the data quality process is better in SAP MDM.
Based on these points, if one is going for a BO DQ + SAP MDM approach, to get the best results we can design all the data quality validations, transformations, de-duplication, enrichment in BO DQ & the master data management activities like data governance, business process etc in SAP MDM.
Read the below weblog for more information

Problem connecting SAP IS-U (ECC 6.0) with Business Objects Edge 3.1

Dear all,
I'm trying to connect to a SAP ECC 6.0 System (SAP IS-U) with Business Objects 3.1 (for example with Crystal Reports). I have installed the SAP RFC SDK on the ECC server and have imported these transport files:
Open SQL reporting objects
InfoSet reporting objects
Row Level Security Tool
Security functions
Cluster Definition Editor
But CR keeps returning this error "You do not have the necessary rights to design reports against the SAP System". I've read a few threads about that problem here. I couldn't find a specific "ABAP transport" - did I miss to import anything else?
Is there any way to check whether the transport files work as they are supposed to? Like the MDX parser connection test for SAP Business Warehouse.
Any other suggestions?
thanks in advance!

Hi,
I read about these authorization tasks in some other thread, but didn't know what to do.
But now I found the auth. object in the transaction SU21.
Since I cannot edit SAP_ALL I created another profile in transaction PFCG (just in case someone else is still messing with that problem) and added all activities of ZSEGREPORT ans S_RFC.
After that I added the profile to the users in question.
Now everything works like a charm.
Thanks alot!

Business Objects, InfoBus and DataForms

HI!
I have created two projects
1. the STATJB - Busines Components
2. the STATManagerApp - Interface application
In the Interface application i need two forms
1. The form with non editable grid with list of clients and buttons: <new>, <edit>, <delite>
2. The form with fields of the current selected client from the first form for editing
I use Business Objects, InfoBus Components and DataForms.
I still don't understand the right way of using them together. :(
Where can i find any description and example of the correct framework?

Sunko,
I recommend the online help for instructions on the basic process for binding the Infobus data items and controls to their Business Components counterparts.
For information on programming specific controls such as buttons, events, etc, you might try the javasoft website. The Infobus controls are based on Swing. Programming events, launching new frames for editing, are typical activities you would perform with Swing components. The javasoft website has tutorials and online documentation which you might find helpful.

Problem with business object oContacts

Hi,
I have a link button associated with the business object oContacts which should be the object Id 33, but when I click on the link button will open the form of Activities. Is perhaps the wrong object ID?

After opening BP form in beforeaction = true and formload event click on the pane contact persons by code (after click to link button store in some variable true value that will bp opened from link and than click on correct pane and set the varaible back to false).

How to restrict permissions for individual business object fields?

I know that ACE can restrict permissions (read/write/delete) for entire business objects (Business Partner, Opportunity, Activity...).
Is it possible to assign security permissions (read/write) to individual attributes of business objects? For example, I want that some users could not view phone number for Business Partner.

We had similar requirement for transaction but that was more to do edit or non-edit authorization at field level, but i feel this will work for your scenario too.
First there is no standard tool available to do this, so, you'll have to create your own authorization objects in transaction SU21 (Basis will be able to do that) lets say ZAUTHOBJ, and then assign permitted activities for this object i.e. create/generate, change, display. Then you this authorization object in UI coding to check the permission level and give access at field level. Don't forget to assign this object to your PFCG role.
I'm not technical so can't tell you where to put the code on UI (may be some prepare output method), your tech team will be able to help you.
Also, its good idea to have seperate auth object for each field you want to restrict because of scalability in future.
Hope this gives you some idea...

Vikas

Business Object XI & archiving

Is anyone aware of Business Objects working with any archiving vendor on the database side, i.e. IBM, HDS, EMC.
thanks

Hi Dell and Barry,
Since Dell tested our archiving solution in 2006 we have added many features to the product. You can now also backup instances and documents. Documents can be backed up with multiple versions and you can pick which version to restore. You can do a partial restore of instances or documents if you lost anything instead of doing a full restore of the system.
Our interface provides the ability to restore archived instances to where they came from or to a different location in case you have an audit and you want to prepare a special folder for the auditors to work in.
We also let you export the report while archiving so you can keep a PDF or Excel version of the report in addition to the original and you can restore either. To save room on your disk you can have the files zipped while archiving.
We also have an interesting housekeeping feature that will let you keep instances that were run by specific users or users from specific user groups while deleting the rest of the instances. This will let you keep your statements for example while deleting all other ad-hoc instances run by other users.
If you use our KPI product as well you get a table with meta data about your instances which you can search. You can use the search results to find either online instances or archived instances. We have other tools which will let you enhance your instance handling with regards to scheduling, instance monitoring, instance searches, and other administration tasks.
You can use the rich feature set in our tools as it is or we can customize tools to your needs if you have a more special set of requirements. Using our tools as the starting point for customization will save you a lot of time verses starting from scratch and we usually include any customization as part of the product itself which means it will automatically be upgraded for you when you upgrade to the next version of Business Objects as long as you are on maintenance. This means one less thing to tackle during the migration process.
Please visit our web site at [www.apos.com|http://www.apos.com]. You can download freeware or get free trials of our various products.
Thank you,

Data federator in business objects

Hi,
What is the use of data federator in business objects.
Regards,
G

HI,
The only option in this case is to 1) use Business Objects' Data Federator to bring XYZ data and BW (new) data together, 2) creating a relational universe, and 3) creating Crystal / WEBI reports using the relational universe; see Picture 1.
>> You can also combine the data by using a MultiProvider in BW which is access the data in BW and the data in the legacy system and an additional alternative is to move all the data into BW.
After 20 years goes by, and we no longer need to report on data housed in XYZ anymore, the environment will be turned off.
1) When this happens, wouldn't we want to remove Data Federator and the relational universe from the scenario ?
>> That depends on the approach you took

SAP Log on into Business Objects server not working (Error FWB 00014)

Hello,
I recently installed Business Objects XI 3.1 Edge series, I am able to logon to enterprise and everything is working fine. I am even able to import roles from SAP system but I have two problems.
1. Logging on to enterprise using SAP user: I am getting the following error message when I choose SAP in the Athentication and enter SAP username and password and click log on.
"Account Information Not Recognized: All of your system's 0 Concurrent Access Licenses are in use at this time or your system's license key has expired. Try again later or contact your administrator to obtain additional licenses. (FWB 00014)".
2. Logging on to SAP system through SAP Logon pad: When I enter my username and passord in SAP system from the same server as I installed BusinessObjects I am getting a run time error.
Did any one of you had the same problem or does any one of you have any clue how to solve this?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I assume that you have a key for named licences (You can check this in the CMC under Licence keys).
What you need to do is to go in the CMC, navigate to Authentication->SAP->Options and select the Named users option.

BAPI's are associated with Business Objects and also they are RFC enabled.
But RFC's are the FM's which can be called from external systems, those FM's can be used in many places based on the applications..
Check these Links

Hi,
I am calculating OTD SLA metrics using the Business Object Web Intelligence, but I am stuck with the WorkDay() how to use this in BO, as it is available in Excel. Requirement is that I need to add business days (Saturdays and Sundays should not be considered) to a particular date. Greatly appreciate if some one can help me immediately as this is high priority right now and need to complete it <REMOVED_BY_MODERATOR>. Thank you, Shiv. Thanks in advance.
Edited by: Pravender on Nov 22, 2010 11:18 AM

Thank you for trying to reply.
What exactly I need is that:
Example:
11/19/2010 + 3 this should give me the date 11/24/2010 which is actually excluding Sat and Sun and adding only the business days to the date.
Please provide me full formula
Thanks in advance, Shiv
