Hello Pradeep,
I recommend to post this query to the [Enterprise Information Management|Data Services and Data Quality; forum.
This forum is dedicated to topics related to Data Integration (Data Integrator, Data Federator, Text Analysis for Data Integrator, Rapid Marts, and Integration for PeopleSoft Enterprise), Data Quality (Data Quality and Data Insight), and Metadata Management.
It is monitored by qualified technicians and you will get a faster response there.
Also, all Enterprise Information Management queries remain in one place and thus can be easily searched in one place.
Thanks a lot,
Falk

Business Objects Rapid Marts with third-party ETL tool

Hi,
I understand BO Rapid Marts are natively developed by BO Data Integrator. Can we use any other ETL tool in combination with BO Rapid Marts?

Hi,
the Rapid Marts are designed to work with the BusinessObjects Data Services.

Documentation for Business Content Rapid Marts Reports for SAP R/3

Hi,
As we have technical documentation for SAP BI business content BI reports on SAP HELP Portal,
is there any link where we can find the technical documentation for business content reports supported by SAP BOBJ Rapid marts for R/3 solution like for HR module.
I would like to know what kind of reports are available as a part of rapid mart business content and what are the measures ( key figures ), dimensions ( characteristics ) supported by each of these standard business content rapid mart reports.
I have referred business guide and user guide for HR rapid marts but they just give an overview of what analysis can be done.But there is no technical documentation for each of the possible rapid mart reports.
Thanks,
Tarun Brijwani.

Business Objects Universes generation

Hi everyone,
We wish to install and use Web Intelligence (Business Objects Enterprise Premium). I understand that Web Intelligence requires universes and that they can be generated via Universe Designer or Universe Builder. With these tools, we can generate a universe using the metadata from the source (BW from example).
1. Is having the metadata available at the source a requirement to generate a universe? If not, what are the other options available? Best practices?
2. Is there an integration with Metadata Management? If yes, what's SAP's flagship product for metadata management? Where can I get more info on the subject?
Thank you very much for all your help,
Nathalie

A lot of your questions about SAP Business Objects tools and applications can be found at
1) Go to the [SAP Help Portal|http://help.sap.com].
2) On the top light gray navigation bar, select SAP BusinessObjects.
3) On the top dark gray navigation bar, select All Products.
4) Select the product and version from the dropdown boxes.
Web Intelligence and Universe Designer have separate documentation, even though they're part of the SAP Business Objects Enterprise suite of products.
1. Is having the metadata available at the source a requirement to generate a universe? If not, what are the other options available? Best practices?
In order to create/maintain a Universe in Universe Designer, you have to have a connection to the database or infrastructure where the data being used for reporting resides (e.g. SAP BW or SAP Business Objects Rapid Marts), thereby exposing the source tables for use in a Universe. Metadata isn't required for creating/maintaining Universes in Universe Designer. For Universe Builder, however, metadata or Oracle Analytic Services are required to create Universes.

[Universe Builder XI 3.1 Reference Guide|http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/boexir31/en/xi3-1_universe_builder_guide_en.pdf]
2. Is there an integration with Metadata Management? If yes, what's SAP's flagship product for metadata management? Where can I get more info on the subject?
SAP Business Objects Metadata Management XI 3.1 supports metadata sourcing from SAP SAP BW 7.0. This is now considered the "flagship" metadata management tool for SAP.

Extract account Based COPA from R/3 using Business Object data services

Hello,
We have a requirement to extract Account Based COPA from SAP R/3 to Teradata using Business Objects data services.
I have read couple of white papers which give information on Rapid Marts( which are built in packages) already available for some applications like inventory, GL, AP, AR etc. But I could not find anything for COPA.
Would anyone give me any information on how to use BO data services for COPA?
Also if there is no rapid mart available for COPA, does anyone know how to create custom data marts in BO Data services?
Is there any document available on this?
Please respond as soon as possible.
Thanks.

Business Objects With ERP

Actually I need your advice for a requirement I have a customer that donu2019t want to implement BW at all but he is very interested in SAP Business Objects BI Tools This customer has a huge amount of data and the manager insisting not using BW or BWA So my only choice is to use only form BOBJ BI package: Xcelsius and Crystal Reports But I am also wanted to provide WebI and explorer but I know this impossible
I had read in SDN Articles that I can use Federator to connect to the ERP directly and so I can create a universe and so I can deliver Webi Document and Explorer
So I need your advice and your recommendations for this

Hi
currently you have the following options:
1. You can use SAP rapid marts. They contain Data integrator mappings (you need an installation of the DI for this) to extract and load your SAP R/3 data into a relational database. Additionally they provide universes (based on a relational schema) hich ill allo you to build WebI reports.
2. You can use the R/3 connector for the Data Federator (You need a DF installation for this). Please note that the R/3 connector is not yet a product rather just a PROTOTYPE. Take a look here: SAP BusinessObjects Web Intelligence Reporting for SAP ERP [original link is broken]
3. You can try to access the underlying database directly using the appropriate DB drivers. Please note that this is NOT RECOMMENDED. This way you cannot leverage security defined on the R/3 side in your WebI reports and you will not be able to access all data as available in R/3 since some of them are stored encoded/compressed in the underlying tables.
4. Instead of WebI you can use Crystal Reports and the R/3 drivers (eg. SAP Tables, Functions, Cluster) provided when installing the integration kit for SAP.

Business Objects XI 3.0/3.1- Connection with SAP ERP not with BW

Hi all members,
I have to confirm that can we connect "SAP Business Objects XI 3.0 or XI 3.1" with SAP ERP.
My client does not have SAP Business Warehouse. Neither they are interested to have SAP BW.
So, I have to confirm that can we connect "SAP Business Objects XI 3.0 or XI 3.1" with SAP ERP ?
Any other thing i have to go for?
Kindly any member guide me in bit detail.
Thanks and Best Regards,
Izhar

Hi,
currently it is not possible to build web intelligence reports fetching data directly from an SAP ERP system. The reason is that SAP ERP data sources are not supported in universes.
Regards,
Stratos
PS: An option is to deploy a BOBJ rapid mart. Please note that in this case you require the BOBJ Data services (ETL) tools. The idea behind the SAP ERP related rapid marts is that in the first step the data are extracted from your SAP ERP sources and load them into a relational database (using a predifined DWH scheme). Additionally the package provides you with universes (which rely on this predefined DWH scheme) and use the database as data sources, here your SAP ERP data were extracted to.

Business objects data services

Hi,
We are doing some feaibility study to implement the reports distribution by splitting the file according to vendors and sending the mail accordingly. As part of this i would like to know can we split the file as mentioned above and send email to the vendors using To and CC in the mail with the attachment of either .TXT file or XLS file using the Business objects data services.
Thank you

That path leads you to Business Objects Enterprise, the Reporting tool, but not Rapid Marts. These you find in the Data Services area....

Is there a Business Objects Data Integrator API / SDK to "execute" DI jobs?

Hello,
I am searching for a Business Objects Data Integrator API / SDK that can be used to remotely execute BOBJ DI jobs (like in scheduling BOBJ XI docs).
I found AdapterSDK from BOBJ DI but this is used to create adapters usable with DI (for various sources and targets). I am interested only in executing an already created job...
Thank you in advance,

SAP Business Object Methodology

Hi Experts,
I'd like to know which are the methodologies to implement SAP Business Object, excluding SAP BW and includin SAP BW. I know for SAP the ASAP methodology is used, but I don´t know for SAP BO.
Greetings & regards,

Hi leonel, that's good. But once again, you need to indentify the following first...
1. Who are the target audience (i.e. the end-users)?
2. Who are going to develop the reports using those tools? Is it centralized (by BI developers or IT developers) or self-service (by the end-users themselves)?
3. What skill set do you have in-house? Do they know know how to use those tools? Do they need training?
4. Where are the data sources? Are you going to build a reporting data mart? Do you have the in-house resources to do so?
5. Do you have the in-house resources to build the semantic layer (i.e. the universe which is the heart-and-soul of BusinessObjects)?
These are just the initial questions. More will come up when you get deeper into the process. Not until you can answer all these questions, you cannot proceed. I also would like to emphasize that, while you can have a general guideline, there is really no cookie-cutter, one-size-fits-all implementation plan. It varies from company to company. You need to sit down with all the stakeholders to come up with a good plan. And once again, you should consider bringing in hire-gun to help you out. It is very important to do it right at the beginning.

Approximately how long to install and configure rapid marts

Hi experts
As a business user not too technical, I wanted to know how long it would approximately take to install Rapid Marts and to configure it for one business area, assuming that database, resource and software prerequisites are met?
appreciate your help
Shweta

Hi,
this depends a little bit on the level of customizations but this can vary from sometimes as simple as a week to sometimes 3 - 4 weeks or more - depending on the level of customization.
