Business Objects on SAP R3 or BW data..

Hello to all.
I am looking for an architecture proposal for my company. Our company has SAP R3 source system set up. They also purchased BW licenses but havent done anything with them yet. We are looking to get into Business Objects
My question is: would it be better to bring information into BW and run Webi off of a BEX query?
Or is it a good idea to run Webi direcly off Infoprovider or ODS?
Or do we just create a universe directly on SAP R/3 tables ?
We do have license for SAP integration kit. Any help would be deeply appreciated.
Thanks in advance
Puneet

Please post this query to the Business Objects Enterprise Administration forum:
BI Platform
That forum is monitored by qualified technicians and you will get a faster response there.
Thank you for your understanding,
Ludek

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:

Do u have any relavant SAP system running in your company? if so, you will definitely have a SYS-ID and a SYSTEM-NAME in your system. i guess this error shouldn't pop after that.

Optimum approach to architect BI solution in Business Object and SAP BI

Hi Expects , I as long as my experience going in delivering BI solution in Business Object and SAP BI We have option to connect to SAP BI via Building BO Universe on SAP BI cube or BEX Query . Now take a example we have 1000s of BEX queries in production. So Should I architect the solution recommending creation of 1000s of BO Universe. Which I donu2019t feel fusible option. You may reply me back saying create BO Universe on SAP BI Cube/Multiprovider, which will reduce no of universe to be created . But at the same time couple of questions comes in my mind u20131. Will I be able to leverage SAP BIA (SAP Business Intelligence Accelerator) to get best performance . 2. As of now BIA dose not accelerate queries build on Multiprovider ??? I believe When I Build Universe on BEX Query It will leverage BIA , But Not sure what will happen if I build BO Universe on Cube. Can we collectedly arrive at Optimum approach to architect Bi solution in Business Object and SAP BI ?? Comments are welcomed Regards Ashutosh D

Ashuthosh...
You might want to have a look at Pioneer for another option for your architecture.

Business Objects and SAP BI Integrated Planning

Hi,
Not too sure if this is in the correct forum...but I have question.
Is there a way to use the integrated planning functionality with a Business Objects Front end tool? As I understand BEx will at some stage will not be supported...so I guess there must be a tool. If so which one?
Thanks,
Leo

Hi Leo,
The Business Objects << SAP Solutions Integration Kit >> enables Web Intelligence, Yoyager, and Crystal reporting on the following SAP sources:
1. SAP BW (Infoset, BW Query, BW MDX and ODS)
2. SAP R3 / mySAP ERP (transparent tables, pool tables, cluster tables, views, ABAP functions and ABAP data clusters)
& Also web portal integration to:
3. SAP Enterprise Portal (SAP's Knowledge Management - Repository Framework Interface, iViews etc)
So.. if you can consolidate your planning data into a cube datatarget, you might be in with a chance!
I hope this helps.

Henry

Business Object on SAP Web Application server.

Experts,
Can Business Objects be installed on SAP Web Application Server?
Any Help is appreciated.
Thanks
Yashu Raj

Matt,
Thanks for your input.
I found this information on SDN
Can Business Object Enterprise Web Tier be deployed on SAP NetWeaver system with usage type AS Java?"Yes, this is supported for Java 1.4 (NW 7.0), see http://support.businessobjects.com/documentation/supported_platforms/default.asp
However, the BOE Web Tier is not shipped with SAP NetWeaver, but can be deployed on an SAP NetWeaver system with usage type AS Java at customer side.
SAP is evaluating if we could ship the Busines Object Enterprise Web Tier with SAP NetWeaver in the future but that cannot be confirmed yet.
Still, in this scenario, the Busines Object Enterprise backend server would need to be installed as a separate server."
Can the Busines Object Enterprise backend server be deployed on an SAP NetWeaver system with usage type AS Java?
"No, as this is not a J2EE application, but a mix of Java and C++.
SAP is evaluating if the Busines Object Enterprise backend server could be shipped as a ""Standalone engine"" (as it is the case for BIA and Livecache
Can the whole or at least relevant parts of the whole Busines Object Enterprise be deployed to the NetWeaver J2EE server, so that distinct scenarios for Busines Object applications run without the need to install a separate Busines Object Enterprise backend server?
This scenario is currently planned for the next generation Analysis Client (Project: Pioneer) and evaluated for the Java based Crystal Version.
I am trying to understand the difference between BOE Web Tier and Busines Object Enterprise backend server....can you throw some light on it if you can.
I am a SAP BI consultant and one of my customers have this question on BOBJ. Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks
Yashu Raj

Using business objects in SAP SRM Content

There is an integration scanarion (MM->SRM) inside SAP SRM SERVER 5.0 SCV. There is a mapping between IDOC outbound interface and PurchaseOrder inbound interface.
But how PurchaseOrder is inserted into SAP SRM? Why there is no PurchaseOrder -> IDOC Mapping.
Is it a good practice to have additional layer of interfaces, for example (IDOC->PurchaseOrder->JDBC_XML instead of IDOC->JDBC_XML) ?

as far as i know, SRM is working with proxies. so for the purchase order interface in the XI content a (inbound) proxy should exist within SRM, inserting the data into the according tables.
your second question is referring to what is called a "canonical data model". in general it's not a bad idea, but it depends on the integration strategy of each company if it is used and within XI content from SAP it is definitely not used

Is there any Difference between Business Objects and SAP Business Objects

Hi Folks,
I am planning to learn BO, i need clarification is both normal BO and SAP BO are same or SAP's BO is different from what we have old BO
Please any one suggest me on this.
Thanks & Regards
Ramakrishna Kamurthy

hi,
BO and SAP BO are both the same....recently the SAP took the BO and it is now the property of SAP....also in the future the BO is used in SAP BI for reporting purposes. But you need licensing for SAP BO.
hope it helps.

Business Objects Query Builder - application server for data connections

Hi experts,
I am trying to flush out all instances where we have universes with connections pointed to the wrong application server. I was hoping to use query builder to show me the application server being used for all connections (metadata.dataconnection)
Is this possible?
Edited by: Khaled McGonnell on Nov 3, 2010 6:11 PM

Hi Srinivas,
I had tried SELECT * already : )
The application server is the server on which the BI system you are connecting to is located. You have to define this when you create the connection in Universe Designer.
You can see the application server for "connections if you use the following query:
select si_server from ci_systemobjects where si_kind = 'Connection'
However, these are not the connections used by universes. These connections are from logged in users. Any ideas?
