Business Objects Services

Hi all
I have Business Objects and SAP Business Objects PCM installed in the same server, I reviewed the performance service when is running one calculated process in PCM and all looks good, but if I turn on the BO services (CMS and TOMCAT), all the memory start to be consume
How I need configure the services for both applications?
Thanks

Hi Ivonne,
first of all, the CAF Business Objects (BOs) itself don't contain any business logic, they're basically just local database tables (with some CRUD services on top).
Business logic is implemented in Application Services (AS).
Now, regarding local BO's vs. external services, it depends on your use case. If the data is already available somewhere in your backend system it makes sense to use external services. For instance you wouldn't want to store business partners all over different composites. For data that is specific to your composite (in particular configuration, customizing etc.) and not likely to be reused by other applications you should use local BOs.
Accessing local BO's is also much faster than calling external services.
You can do reuse in both scenarios, since the CAF services can be exposed as web services.
Regards,
Christian

Business Object "Service Order" not found in Web Service Tool

Dear Experts,
We're trying to create a web service for Service Order via Web Service Tool,
but we can't find the business object "Service Order" there.
How to step to reproduce the problem:
1. Logon CRM WEBUI with the business role ITSERVICEPRO.
(or T-cd:BSP_WD_CMPWB > Enter component WS_DESIGN_TOOL > Test)
2. Go to Service Operations>Web Service
3. Create a new Web Service
-> In "Service Objects" area at step 1 "Select Objects", there's a drop down list box of "Business Object".
In this list, "Service Order" does not exist.
Other objects such as "Service Confirmation", "Service Order Quotation" etc are available.
How can we create a new web service for Service Order?
Any advise would be highly apprecaited.
Best regards,
F.T.

Hello Rocca,
It is hard coded in FM CRM_SALESDOCUMENT_FILTER that the item which is assigned to object type BUS2000140 would be removed from the upload relevant item list.
To get it replicated, I am afraid that you need to modify the relevant coding here.
Best regards,
Maggie

Business Object Services- Attachment vs store business document

Hi,
There are two ways to add attachments to a Purchase requisition.
1. as a generic attachment- (System --> services for object --> create attachment )
2. as a business document ( System --> services for object -->store business doucment)
Looks like in both the options, attachments could be stored on HTTP Content server.
What are pros and cons of storing an attachment as a business doc?
What are additional functions possible with option 2?
Thanks ,
Vinay

Hi,
Attachments are stored in binary format.
Advantage of storing in SAP is speedy access, than compared to content server.
Disadvantage some of the table space grows exponently.
Some of the tables attachments get stored are SO*
To get the link for the folder and attachments stored in SRGBTBREL
Various type of attachments are ATTA NOTE URL MSG etc.
For custom attachment options can be enabled using class CL_GOS_MANAGER

If useful pl. assign points

Running XI and 6.5 Services on same Business Objects Server

We are currently thinking about migrating to Business Objects XI from 6.5 SP4.
We are running with a 3-tier architecture, with the Business Objects services running on a Windows Server.
Due to the number of users and reports in circulation we would like to do the migration in phases.
Is it possible to run both the XI and 6.5 services on the same Business Objects server at the same time?

That's actually a migration secanario so it should work fine. I had no trouble with 5.2 and 6.0 on the same system.

Add extra Business Objects to model CRM 2007: Web Client Records

Hello,
Could anyone tell me how I can add more Reference Objects in Case Management?
I copied the model CRM 2007: Web Client Records and added a new node (with for example Business Object Service Order) just like product and installations (which are visible under the reference objects)
I created a new element type under SCMG_SP_CASE_RECORD --> Z_CRM_SPS_CASE_RECORD and in the customizing we attached the model to the case type under Case Management --> Extended Customizing --> Process Actions --> Assign Action Profile to Case Type.
Still the new Business Object in the model isn't visible under Case Management in de WebUI.
Could anyone tell me if I'm missing something or is there a config guide available how to add more business objects?
Looking forward to your replies.
Kind regards,
Joost Christenhusz

Business Objects XI Release 3.0/3.1 Enterprise Sizing Guide

Is there a Business Objects XI Release 3.0/3.1 Enterprise Sizing Guide available yet...?
We are trying to plan our hardware budget for next year.
I have reviewed both the BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 3.0 Deployment Planning Guide, and the BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 3.0 Deployment Planning Guide - but neither one gives you the actual counts of concurrent and simultaneous connections supported per CPU/Service in 3.0/3.1.
Edited by: Mark Richardson on Sep 16, 2008 4:49 PM

Hello,
In the deployement document for XI 3.O : "xi3_bip_deploy_plan_en.pdf",
Page 81, one reads : "It is also recommended that you contact your Business Objects sales
representative and request information about the BusinessObjects Enterprise
Sizing Guide. A Business Objects Services consultant can assess your
reporting environment and assist in determining the configuration to best
integrate with your current environment."
Therefore, such a document should exist.
Any news since the last post?
Thx in advance

Business Objects and Data Services on VMWare

My company has a requirement to deploy Business Objects 4.0 as well as Data Services.
We are going to be deploying them on Windows Server 2008 R2, hosted on a VMWare cluster. I have reviewed the PAM, but my question is:
Will these run using SQL Server 2008 R2 as a database? I see "SQL Server 2008" and I am just curious whether R2 is also supported?
Thanks.

Hi,
SQL Server 2008 R2 is listed in the PAM for DS as Repo DB. For BI4 it is also working and supported. I installed it already on it.

Business Objects Reports and Web Services for Dashboards

Hello!
I am writing a Business Object report against my Universe. I save the report to the CMS and then right click on the report block and click "Publish as a Web Service...". This opens up that diaglog and I am able to publish the web service. I then can import the web service into Dashboards 4.1 (Xcelsius) and am working working to figure it out further at this point.
My question is this: When I go back to the report in Business Objects, and modify the report, I would like to republish the web service. I click on Design and rework the report. Run the report. Save the report. I right click on the report block and I don't see the "Publish as a Web Service..." choice.
What am I doing wrong?
Business Objects 4.1...
Thank you.

Hi Susan,
Go to the web service publisher, expand the web service, select the block and select edit.
Select the content and prompt and select Update.

Business Objects, external services and application services in CAs

Hi All,
right now we are developing our first eSOA Composite Application with CE and I have some questions regarding Business Objects, the import of external services and the development of application services.
As I understood there are two ways to provide business functionality for composite applications:
a. Import backend functionality as an external service (e.g. BAPI, RFC) at the CAF, build the application service which can be used as a callable object for UIs or the GPs
b. Develop a local Business Object (in CAF) providing the business logic, create the application service which again can be used as a callable object. Furthermore the application service can be exposed as a Web Service (external service).
My questions:
1. When is it appropriate to to import external services in stead of developing local BOs?
2. Under what conditions is it advisable to (solely) develop local BOs?
3. What are the advantages / disadvantages regarding the reusability of the services (in option a and b)?
Note: We are developing on NetWeaver 2004s.
Please let me know, if you need more information to answer the questions!
Thanks for your advice in advance,
Regards,
Ivonne

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.

Hi,
this forum is for the SAP Integration Kit. Would suggest you post your question into the EIM area for Data Services.

Service Interface for the Business Objects

Hello everyone. I'm developing a Web Service using the service interface that provide JDeveloper for their Business Objects. I have a relationship between two EO as described below:
EntityA 1 ...... * EntityB and it is a composition relation.
Each ID in the entities are sequencial. There is no problem for create EntityA and EntityB at the same time. My probelm is that if I want to create only EntityB. I can't use the default method provided by the AppModule, neither make a custom method like:
public boolean createEntityB(EntityBRowImpl mayEntityB){
//Sample code.
}because always a new row is created, and as EntiyB is a child of EntiyA, require the father's id and of curse an error ocurr. Also, can't let someone write the ID in the foreing key of the EntiyB.
How can I solve this please?
Thanks in advance. Any suggestions are very wellcome.
PS: I'm using JDeveloper 11.1.1.5

The error you're hitting is presumably JBO-25030.
Look to the "merge" command. In the parent you specify just the key of the preexisting parent record, and then in the child you specify your new child record.

2) When we create the Web service from custom business object what the necessary steps(action : Create , Read , Update) require?
3) Sample Scenario :
My Custom Business Object
businessobject Custom_Integration {

element EP_VAL2 : LANGUAGEINDEPENDENT_MEDIUM_Text;
element IP_RES : LANGUAGEINDEPENDENT_MEDIUM_Text;
I have created the Web Service using this custom business object.
3) How i can use this web service in external system? what are the prerequisite steps in external system to consume this service in it?
Please anyone have idea about this how to do this and how to achieve this using SDK and custom business object.
Many Thanks
Mithun

Hello Mithun,
Does this section in the documentation help you:
SAP Cloud Applications Studio Help -> Developers Desktop -> Web Services
The entry "Task -> Create a Web Service" describes how to create a Web Service on your own BO
The entry "Task -> Test a Web Service" helps you how you can use it in a foreign tool / application.

Question of Business Object Data Service

hi Expert,
Now we are doing project for CRM integration to BODS (Business object Data Service).
There is business request for deduplicate check whole CRM Business partner data base.
The data quantity is 10Million and most of them are consumer role, we prefer to clean up the BP data via BODS and in CRM we use standard account merge functionality.
but I not sure whether BODS support deduplicate check for 10M consumer and how to do it?
Is there any one had experience or idea for this request?
Br.
William.

Sure DS can do that, no doubt about it. But before starting, I recommend you to carefully read the Match Consolidate Transform wiki page. Pay special attention to the setting of the BREAK_KEY that will have a significant impact on the performance and throughput of the matching process.

Business Object Schedule Service - Custom Destination

We are trying to explore Business object scheduling server thru .NET SDK. But we need a custom destination option, at present we have ftp, smtp etc. What we need is a web service as a destination that will get invoked and will also have access to underlying report data.
First of all is it possible to build a custom destination plugin using .NET ? If so then would appreciate if you could point us to a rite code example.
Thanks

There is currently no option for custom destinations.
You will have to use one of the defined ones and then use that output for your application.

Business Object Data Services (BODI) without SAP MDM?

Hi,
From an architectural point of view; do you always have to use SAP MDM when you want to use the Business Object Data Services (e.g. for data validity checks when creating customers)?
Or can you use Business Object Data Services in combination with SAP ECC without MDM?
Best regards,
Marius

All Depends on your business needs.
1) As in if you want to use most effective cleansing (BODS contains inbult infor for Adderess cleansing) along with some data governance(Validation, assignments,MDM Workflow) I would say fo with BO-MDM Integration.
2) Here I am not sure via BODS - ECC you can handle ongoing maintainance , it is supreb for first time data load.
so it is better if you use ECC-BO-MDM ---> BI/ECC for smooth transition through out landscape.
3) Here also try to check the data structure compactiblity between BODS and ECC as per their version, it can also create a big impact.
Hope these points can clear many doubts
