Business Process Repository Server connection difficulties

All,
We have Business Process Repository installed and can connect to it on the same machine but are unable to connect from any remote machine.
It would appear therefore that this is some sort of configuration issue, and I see many discussions of this same problem online but no clear or direct resolution given.
Is there a clear source of information anywhere about how to get remote access going? Do others have similar experiences?
All help most appreciated. Thanks.
Andrew Bernard

Hi Andrew,
Looks like your repository server and the client machines that are unable to connect to repository are in different sections on yr LAN. have you checked at the firewall for required ports to be opened for comminucation between Client and repository server?
You can get the list of ports in the admin documents or can directly ask Oracle support for it.

Gaurav Shrama :)

  • Business Process Repository Server and Business Process Publisher

    Hello,
    How to install "Business Process Repository Server" and "Business Process Publisher"?
    Tanks
    Daniela

    Hi,
    Both business publisher and process repository are available in CD2 of BPA Suite complete (for windows OS).
    Important step before installing the business process repository is that you must have installed the database. Or else you must have installed BPA with OracleLite or XE database. At the time Business process repository installation you need to choose the database option 1 if Oracle enterprise data base is installed, else you may choose option 2 which says you already have BPA installed with database.

  • How to downloadin Business Process Repository in Solution Manager?

    Hello,
    Does anybody know how to download whole Business Process Repository from solution manager?
    I know how to download BPR, that are related to project, to excel file, but I want to download all the scenarios,processes are inbuilt to the Solution Manager business blueprint.
    Can anybody help me?
    Thanks,
    Mahantesh

    Hello Mahantesh,
    I suppose that your idea behind this question is that you would like to browse the contents of the BPR. For this specific pupose, SAP will deliver a new web dynpro application with SAP Solution Manager 4.0 SP 12 and the respective stack coming out mid June 2007 which allows you to browse all BPR contents in your SAP Solution Manager system. So you no longer have to create a seperate project and select the contents via F4 value help in SOLAR01 in order to access the contents.
    For further updates, please check the news mid June:
    <a href="http://service.sap.com/solutionmanager">http://service.sap.com/solutionmanager</a>
    Media Library -> Technical Papers. It will probably be called: "4.0 Support Package Stack <latest stack> [probably stack 12]"
    However, please note that an individual download of the entire or partial BPR structures into MS Excel will not be possible.
    Best regards,

  • What is a Business Process Repository and where do we get it in SAP?

    Hi,
    What is a Business Process Repository and where do we get it in SAP?

    Hi,
    Here is an another way to look at the BPR-Business Process Repository delivered by SAP.
    1. Add the Web Dynpro application Business Process Repository (BPR) to your Favorites:
    2. Choose  Favorites  Add Other Objects  Web Dynpro Application  in the SAP initial screen.
    3. Enter SM_BPR_OVERVIEW in the field Web Dynpro Application.
    4. Enter a description like ex. SAP BPR
    5. Save your changes.
    6. Now Call the saved - Web Dynpro application SM_BPR_OVERVIEW
    7. You can see the BPR in a new browser window.
    This info is available in SAP Help on Solution Manager.
    Hope this helps.

  • Business Process Repository - installation problem

    Hi,
    Please help me with installation of Oracle BPA Suite.
    2 days ago I downloaded Oracle BPA Suite from "edelivery.oracle.com" - B46789-01, Oracle Business Process Analysis Suite 10g (10.1.3.4)
    Installation set comes in 3 parts and is unpacked into 2 directories -
    CD1-10.1.3.271679
    and CD2-10.1.3.271679
    I started CD1-10.1.3.271679/OracleBPA.exe
    (screenshot - http://img525.imageshack.us/img525/6610/scr1wy9.jpg)
    Oracle Business Process Architect installed fine.
    Now I would like to install Business Process Repository following to instructions in chapter 3.4.1.1 (steps 2,3,4,...) of installation manual (CD1-10.1.3.271679\Docs\ENU\installation_guide_s.pdf), but I could not find button "Install Oracle Business Process Repository" which is mentioned in step 3 - see screenshot (http://img525.imageshack.us/img525/6610/scr1wy9.jpg).

    (screenshot - http://img391.imageshack.us/img391/7439/scr2vp2.jpg)
    It seems that the button "Install Oracle Business Process Repository" now is in place but it doesn't respond to click. I could press the button, but installation of repository does not start.
    (button "Install Business Process Publisher" works fine)
    What I'm doing wrong?

  • Solution Manager 4.0 and SAP R3 4.7E - Business Process Repository Question

    When I am in solution manager setting up my business processes (solar01) to select my logical component with the drop-down I do not see my SAP R3 ERP 4.7 system available for selection.  They do exist in my SLD (SMSY) and all the components with the 4.7 system.  Does anyone know why they are not showing up in the drop-down for business process repository selection help?
    Thanks
    Skip Ford

    Hi,
    For how long the installation process has been running. Check the following.
    1. The virtual memory page size that you have assigned.
    2. The hard disk free space.
    3. The Virtual memory should be optimized size, should not be larger than the free space available.
    These are performance optimization settings.
    I guess the installation would take around ten hours, I am not sure.
    But one thing is sure <b>SAP</b> is not that bad to get aborted abruptly.
    Keep Patience while installing. Before that take care that your system satisfies, requirements.
    Hope I was clear. Feel free to get back, incase you face any problem.

  • Business Process Repository is sometimes confusing on transaction tab

    I am Using SOLAR01. While creating scenarios and especially business processes by using BPR content, sometimes no transactions are listed in transactions TAB for a business process, but transactions are listed in business process steps. And in contrast sometimes the transactions are listed on Business process level and missing in Business process steps. This is confusing.
    We are using SOLMAN 4.0 with ST-ICO-150 content.
    An ECC6 system is assigned to project.
    For example:
    I choose as scenario 'Procurement and Logistics execution process for ERP' from standard BPR content.
    System provides me a huge list of Business Processes.
    I activate Business process 'Outbound process with WM' and goto Transactions tab. I see no transactions. But Process steps are included like 'Create Delivery' and on steps level there are transactions listed.
    Same thing with most of the business processes in this standard BPR derived scenario.
    Another example in contrast (for same BPR derived scenario):
    I activate Business process 'Purchase Requisition with Service Directories' and goto Transactions tab. I see MANY transactions. Process steps are included like 'Release purchase requisition' and on steps level there are NO transactions listed.
    In fact, the cases when transactions are available on Business process level have 'Execute' icon before the BP name in the structure tree on left-hand side area.
    Can somebody explain me, why transactions from BPR content are assigned sometimes on BP level and sometimes on BP step level. In my opinion they should be on both levels. BP level should contain all transactions and BP step level only those transaction relevant for that step.
    BR: Kimmo

    Kimmo,
    We are using the BPR content to develop process flows using ARIS for NetWeaver.  Our experience is very similar to yours, to the extent that we hired an SAP consultant to help us map transactions back down to the process steps.
    In the end, the value of the BPR is diminished if the transactions are not properly mapped to the process steps.  We have found very few SAP experts who are even aware of the BPR (this includes actual SAP staff), but all are familiar with the transactions required to run the software.  For an architect looking to have business processes designed with referenced objects the BPR is invaluable.  How I long for the days of the ASAP R/3 reference model!

  • Business Process Repository in Solution Manager

    My question on the BPR is two-fold:
    1) Where exactly is the file located in the marketplace to update the BPR for Solution Manager 4.0? I've looked and I've searched and have been unsucessful in finding it?
    2) From the current BPR in Solution Manager is it possible to extract the data there into a csv, txt or xls file? I've seen another thread in the forum on extraction (a link was provided) and unfortunately the link that was provided did not hold the information required to answer this particular question?

  • Business Process Documentation

    Dear All
    Business Process Documentation
    I just want to know foloowing thing sabout Business Process Documentation.
    do yuo know where there any documents about Business Process Documentation and system log ?
    Edited by: Koji Watanabe on Feb 16, 2012 1:52 AM

    Hellow Watanabe-san
    Could you explain little bit mroe about what you are looking
    for ?
    Are you looking for the way to document Business Process in SolMan ?
    Or
    Are you looking for the way to monitor your business process in
    the backedn system ?
    The link that vasanthgobi mentioned is the SAP help on business
    process monitoring.
    Documentation topic
    In SAP Solman, you can document your business process in following
    2 area. Project area and Solution area. Project area is mainly used
    for implementation phase or initial documentation. Solution area is
    used for operation phase.
    And to support the documentation, SAP Solman provides several
    supporting tools for project area (you can copy the document in
    project area to solution later).
    In SolMan 7.1, if you want to document your business process,
    you may have following possibility.
    (General motivation for the documentation, please refer to the
    this blog http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/weblogs?blog=/pub/wlg/27054.
    And service Market Place
      http://service.sap.com/esacademy  (login in english)
      =>meet the expert =>Replay  Library.
      =>SAP Solution manager =>Solution Documentation )
    1.Upload via EXCEL (initial upload) and adjust in project area
    <Create templete via project, and create excel content locally
      and upload to project area>
    2.Maintain business process by using Business Blue print function
    <Using more graphical instead of SolMan screen>
      Also refer to these blogs
      http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/weblogs?blog=/pub/wlg/28304
      http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/weblogs?blog=/pub/wlg/27212
      And service market place link (webinar)
      http://service.sap.com/esacademy  (login in english)
      =>meet the expert =>Replay  Library.
      =>SAP Solution manager =>Business Process Blueprint
    3.Start initial documentation using RBPD content and adjust it in
    project area
    <SAP and IBIS develop analysis content based on the business
      process repository. By using this content, you can execute
      analysis for ERP and can get process utilization info.
      And you can create initial process from this>.
      Also refer to these blogs
      http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/weblogs?blog=/pub/wlg/26074
      And service market place link
      http://service.sap.com/rbpd
    4.Document manually in project area
    (Also ARIS integration is possible).
    In above case, if you use RBPD content, yes, you have some step
    related to the backend system (collecting process execution statistic
    in ERP). But in other case, you do not have any activity to ERP.
    For RBPD, it collects the data by using job, and you can control
    the number of WP to be used. The runtime will be depending your
    ERP system size.
    Business Process Monitoring topic
    In SolMan, there are business process monitoring functionality.
    Actually, it is not only the monitoring, but also you can use it
    for business process improvement.
    Basically in business process monitoring related tools,
    there are 2 main tools
    1.Business Process Monitoring tool - Monitoring
    2.Business Process Analytics tool - Analysis & benchmarking
    (Also there are dashboard).
    Business Process Monitorings enables monitoring of your core
    business process from technical and application side.
    The tool can monitor specific job(normal job/BW process chain),
    interface(IDoc, tRFC, qRFC etc), performance, and also different
    types of transaction document like sales order, delivery,
    purchase order, production ordet etc.
    For transaction monitoring, there are pre-defined template
    (best practice).
    Also it allows to monitor any table (z/y-table also).
    And the Analytics tool is the tool based on the BW.
    By using this, you can do benchamarking, trend analysis,
    backlog analysis.
    In more, I highly recommend to check the series of blog
    by Volker. And FAQ document.
    http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/weblogs?blog=/pub/u/251688346

    There are configuration document in service market place also.

  • Having variations of same business process, How to model?

    Customer has several variations of the same business process. How to model them in Solution manager's project implementation tools? I actually created this same question in 'Business process expert' forum, so please read the whole story there and earn your points there.
    Having variations of same business process, How to model?
    Best regards,
    Kimmo

    Hi Kimmo,
    I wouldn't use process steps to refine processes. This is incompatible to SAP implementation content coming from BPR (Business Process Repository). But a good idea would be to copy the main business process e.g. "Sales order processing" into two new processes on the same level, e.g. "Sales order processing by manual input" (variation1) or "Sales order processing by incoming interface" (variation2). Then you can use the Compare Button on the variations to see if any changes have been on the main business process and copy them to the variations. This minimizes the effort to keep track of changes after creating the variations. When you run transaction SA_PROJECT_UPGRADE on that project these changes even get flagged. Mostly this function is used to upgrade against BPR or a template project but it works also for copies inside a project e.g. to model variations.

  • Business Process Monitering

    Hi,
              My company has decided to implement BPM (Business Process Monitering). Can we implement BPM for the Template Project.
               What is the difference between "Solution" and "Template project"? Please provide me helpful answers.
    Thanks in advance,
    Sreekala.

    Hi Sreekala
    In Solution Manager, we have 2 different areas. One is project and another one is solution.
    In both area, we can maintain business process. And we can also copy existing business process from different sources
    (Business Process Repository, Project, Solution).
    <Project is more used for implementation and test scenario. Operation is used for operation scenario like busines process monitoring>
    So if you have something in project side (template project), you can copy existing processes into solution. And then
    you can configure business process monitoring
    (remember, business process monitoring uses business process in solution. not project side).
    In case, you do not have anything yet, you can also try template BPMon setting that is avaialble in service market place.
    It contains important application monitor (transactional document monitor).
    If you are enterprise support contract or max attention contract and your SAP backend system is already go live,
    I recommend you to take Business Process Analysis  service to have insight of you backend system.
    Then it become much clear where to start and how the tool can provide additional benefit.
    (in more detail, contact SAP Support Advisory center)
    I list up some important information sources. So please take a look at link below.
    1)FAQ
    http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/SM/FAQBusinessProcess+Monitoring
    One of topic is about the project. So you can get some information in here

  • Adding A Business Process To SolMan

    Hi,
    I've just upgraded our Solman system to EHP1 SPS22 and I'm now looking at business process monitoring.
    From documentation I've seen you go into DSWP and select your solution and away you go, I've also seen mention of transactions solar01/02. I seem to be missing something here as our defined solutions don't already have business processes defined and I'm being a bit lame as I can't seem to see how you would add a new business process in.
    Does anyone have any experience in doing this and is able to coomunicate process in a step by step guide to get us up and running?
    Thanks.

    Hi Spencer,
    as you probably heard here and ther the SAP Solution Manager supports the whole lifecycle of a business process. Hence there are especially two logical parts
    a) the project and business blueprint part which you access with your mentioned transactions SOLAR01/02
    b) the operations part where you have a similar but nevertheless separate directory the so called Solution Directory that you can access via DSWP > Solution Landscape > Solution Landscape Maintenance or via the "Business Process Operations" Work Center.
    In both directories you can maintain business processes from scratch or use the Business Process Repository or another Project or another Solution as source.
    What you require for using Business Process Monitoring is that business processes are maintained in the Solution Directory. If so far you processes are only maintained in SOLAR01/02 then you can copy them into the Solution Directory.
    You should find corresponding iTutors under http://service.sap.com/rkt-solman
    You can also have a look into http://service.sap.com/bpm > Media Library > Technical Information for different technical papers explaining on how to setup BPMon.
    Perhaps you also want to visit the FAQ page http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/SM/FAQBusinessProcess+Monitoring

  • GUID and business process and performance

    The single object dialog is not the only business process which has to be solved. Much more important are the nextfollowing mass activities of each business process. Therefore it seems to be much more efficent to store data not with a GUID but with a logical key to improve the performance of access during those mass processes instead of collecting all data spread over a extra large file (secondary index is helpfull, but must pick it out too) .
    - Are there any possibilities available to influence the data filing to logical aspects of the process.
    - Are there any time comparisons made between logical filing and GUID filing in mass processes.
    - Are there any tips when to use, when to avoid GUIDs for filing

    Both business publisher and process repository are available in CD2 of BPA Suite complete (for windows OS).
