BW and Business One

Hello,
I never used SAP Business One and don't know much about it. What are the differences of using BW in SAP Business One than with regular R3 systems? Is it possible using the SAP Portal with SAP Business One?
Thank you!
David

SAP Business One and R3 are completely different systems. You can use SAP Business One Integration Technology to bridge them: there is information available on this site about this technology, including a forum.
Should you need more info, I suggest you to post questions on it.

  • Crystal Reports and Business One Problems

    Hello all
    Some questions about Crystal Reports and Business One, I try run some Crystal reports developed in special but for some reason when I ussing Terminal Services this unplug, so, more strange its when the user are not administrators because when are adminstrators this problem is not present.
    Some tip its welcome.
    Thanks a lot

    Hi Ricardo,
    I checked the privileges point to point, even as he opened like to administration, but no response as to assign regular users, that is strange.
    >I didn't  undertstand these statement .What do you mean  by point to point .There is only one place you have to specify was user has access to the group you have defined .As described , it is done in number 4 .(Please refer to that )
    When we are talking about user -there is two user --One is superuser and regular user
    If you are super user , you have to give permission to other users to only crystal report and regular user  doesn't need access to Administration module <referring he opened like to administration> .
    BTW , Are you familiar with crystal report administration in SAP b1 ? You can find several thread poiting towards training material in the forum
    Hope this helps

  • ABAP and Business one

    Hi Friends,
    I tried searching the net for details but i was not able to clearly find. Hence i am posting on this forum. Hence, i apologise for asking such a basic question but i believe that you people can clarify my doubts
    I am working with SAP ABAP for the past 2 years. It was recently one of my colleague suggested about SAP Business one. My queries are :
    1. Is there any link between ABAP and business one ( i.e does it make sense for an ABAPer to learn business one. Are there any concepts of ABAP which we use in Business one)
    2. Is it worth to change your skill set from ABAP to business one?
    3. How good is the market for Business one ?
    Expecting your reply. Thanks in advance.
    Cheers,
    Prem

    ANS: There is no link between ABAP and SAP B1.
    2. Is it worth to change your skill set from ABAP to business one?

    3. How good is the market for Business one ?
    ANS: Market is good for experienced people

  • CE and Business One

    Hi everyone, I would like to know if someone knows the relationship between Composition Environment and Business One, if they are compatible or in which way they can be integrated. 
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi ,
    On this page you can see that SAP Business One is able to communicate through Web Service.
    http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/index?rid=/webcontent/uuid/a0915b47-ef89-2a10-91a5-b22649e5cfab [original link is broken]
    That's all you need to create applications with CE that connect and interact with SAP Business One data and processes.
    Hope it helps,

  • Reg: Diff between SAP business suite and Business One

    Hi Guru,
    We are planning to implement SAP in our industry.
    Now we are planning to implement SAP Business one. After three years we will bring in complete SAP implementation.
    1.Can you please tell the difference between complete SAP Implementation and SAP B1.
    2.Could you please explain, if we implement SAP B1 right now. will there be any problem if we go for complete implementation.
    3.If the business grows above one billion,will B1 hold good?
    4.What is the business suite?
    Thanks & Regards,
    S.Nehru

    Nehru,
    thank you for considering SAP solutions.
    W regards to question 1 and 4, in short:
    SAP Business Suite on traditional relational databases or on HANA is the most extensive SAP set of SAP Business application and includes the SAP applications ERP, CRM, SCM (Supply Chain) SRM (Supplier Relationship) and PLM (Product Lifecycle)
    A1 is based on SAP Business Suite and tailored by SAP partners.
    B1 is a separate product, so is Business by Design.
    All solutions are integrated and used by the largest global enterprises and their subsidiaries as well as by SME small and midsize enterprises, depending on their requirements.
    Please see Solution overview of SME solution for more details on A1, B1 and Business by Design.
    In addition to the Business Applications, SAP also offers Business Networks Solutions like ARIBA and Concur.
    The majority of SAP customers are SME customers: At the end of the third quarter of 2014, SAP has more than 263,000 customers, of which more than 80 percent, or 212,500, are SME's.
    Without knowing more details, it would be not professional from my site to provide an answer to your question 2 and 3. Please work with your local SAP partner or SAP Account Executive to validate your approach.
    Thank you

  • Business One 2005 in the US and license model

    Hello,
    I'd like to know if there is a difference between Business One in Europe and Business One in the US.
    As far as I know it's the same cluster (A) so it's the same version right ?
    is there a difference on the license mechanism ? it it license per seat (10 licenses = 10 user) or license sequential (10 licenses = 10 people can use at the same time, but it can be more than 10 users)
    Thank you

    Sébastien 
    The Licensing is based on Named Users.  10 licenses = 10 users. 
    I don't think there is any difference in licensing between US and Europe.

  • Windows Workflow Foundation and SAP Business One

    Does anyone here have any experience creating Windows Workflow Foundation (.NET 3.5) activities and workflows that interact with SAP Business One?
    A lot of examples in books show how easy it is to use workflows to write directly to a database, but we obviously cannot do that with SBO.
    I am most interested in where to place the code to log into the DI-API and how to pass that connection to the individidual activities.
    Thank you,
    Mike

    Michael,
    This could be done with some work using the DI Server and Business One Web Services (B1WS).  You can get more detail on B1WS from the Tools section of main SAP Business One page here on SDN ... although it does not go into WFS or WF.
    In the future when eSOA services are delivered for SAP Business One ... you will see that WF can be used much more easily.  This is an area that SAP is investigating ... keep a lookout on SDN!

  • Business one - how is the prospects for a MBA fresher

    I am very new to business one and I need some information regarding its training and prospects. One of my friend has graduated (MBA) and trying to get into SAP. Since he is fresher he is not able to undergo any major SAP module. The training center is recommending him to underto business one and jump to other modules after he gets his experience. In this circumstance (a fresher trying to learn SAP and become BSA) is Business one an apt module for him? Can he later jump to a major module? How easy difficult will it be for him?
    Please give your valuable suggestions.
    Thanks,
    Deepak

    Hello Deepak - I can provide some input from some experience both as a user and as an implementation specialist.
    Most folks think that the R3 world is the best place to start due to the larger number of opportunities and the ability to specialize very quickly in a very thin and focused module (for example, HR in R3).  IF, and that is a big IF, a person wants to be locked into a very thin and specialized module, then going to the R3 world is great.
    However, if a person likes to work with the entire range of business operations then All In One, Business by Design, and Business One are the avenues to go.  Although there are differences between the R3 world and these other packages, the truth of the matter is that it is much easier to go from these other packages into R3, than vice-versa.  Why?  Because with the other packages, you are forced to understand what is going on throughout the entire system and the entire business process.  I have seen over and over again where an experienced and seasoned R3 person has tried to work in one of the "all-encompassing" packages and drops from senior to junior in the process because they know one distinct area and now they need to know everything (which most do not).
    A lot of people refer to SAP Business One as the "little brother" to R3 (and sometimes even insinuate that SAP B1 is not that tough), but you tell me - which is harder to know in an expert fashion - one single piece of the business or the entire process which a business goes through?  I have been on both sides of the fence and, believe me, knowing what to do functionally and technically for the entire process is a much larger effort and requires a special kind of person.
    You hear many horror stories about the R3 implementations which take years to do, millions of dollars, and an army of consultants.  Why is that?  Because each consultant knows his/her piece and mis-communication and finger pointing are farily easy to do.  Not quite possible when you have only one or two consultants there to do the entire SAP B1 implementation; it goes quickly and the responsibility is squarely set upon the shoulders of those one or two consultants.
    SAP is currently making a big push in SAP Business by Design (SAP ByD) in the upcoming months and have a variety of Webinars and are creating some good documentation since it is a newer SAP release.  The SAP ByD field is wide open for anyone because there are few consultants who can claim experience (which makes it good and bad, depending upon how you see it).
    So the bottom line question comes to this;  does your friend want to be part of the army in R3 and learn a specific area of business or does the person like to work as the hedge-pin of success and responsibility in a broad and entire business process?  Finding a great and all-around SAP B1er is like finding a jewel - I have had the pleasure of working with SAP B1 for the past six years and having someone on the team who is both knowledgable and able to get things done is a great asset...the SAP B1 implementation is both tough but very rewarding...
    Good luck for your friend who is starting out...

    My question is about laptop installation.My operating system is  MS XP home edition.Should I install SQL enterprise edition for business one installation? I think this implementation is not the same as the client installation,because of the fact that my laptop have to be  not only a client  also a server.I have tried to install sql enterprise edition and Business one but I had some diffuculties by licence server installation.A server was searched by the system to log on.I'm waiting for your response.Thanks for your help.

    I was not able to install the enterprise version, too. If I remember right, the error message told me i need to install it on a server os (w2k server) - just as you said.

  • Creation of Add-on package for 64 bit and 32 bit SAP Business One Client

    Please help me creating package for 64 bit and 32 bit SAP Business One. If Add-on executable is compiled with x86 option then there is no issue of connecting Add-on with 32 bit SAP Business one and if Add-on executable is compiled with Any CPU option then there is no issue of connecting Add-on with 64 bit SAP Business one. Problems are mentioned as below
    1. My Add-on uses MS ACCESS connection and the connection is read using Jet OLEDB 4.0 provider. It works fine for x86 compile mode but not when compile mode is Any CPU. I searched for the issue on Google and found a solution to change MS ACCESS connection provider to ACE.OLEDB.12.0 but again ACE provider is installed according to the Office version i.e. 32 bit or 64 bit office suite. If I install 32 bit ACE provider then Add-on executable compiled with x86 version is working fine but with Any CPU option throws error as provider is not registered on current machine.
    2. Secodly, our license validation activex dll is build using vb 6.0 and therefore when Add-on executable is compiled using Any CPU option, Add-on EXE cannot read from license dll. Any suggestion, how the activeX dll can be compiled whose component can be created from for X86 compiled exe and any cpu compiled exe.
    Please help because we are stuck in this issue and cannot move forward.
    Thanks.

    Hi Alejandro,
    That is one solution but did your add on used ms access connection? if you used Jet oledb to connection string or ace oledb connection string? what if 32 bit office is installed and what if 64 office is installed? how did you found the office version in install script? after determining the office version how did you installed Microsoft redistributable for ace oledb (32 bit or 64 bi )?
    I am sorry that I asked many questions but these are the problems where I am stuck with the addon installer?
    Thanks

  • SAP Business One and Moving Database Issue

    We are in the process of moving our PROD system to a new server. The server runs MS SQL 2005. We installed SAP Business One and by default the demo databases went to the C Drive (C:/Program Files/MS SQL Server/..../Data). The SQL Server that exists has data on D partition and logs on E partition. We therefore dettach the database, copy the files to the correct locations, and reattach.
    Now, however, the SAP Business One application no longer finds the Company or Demo databases. Is there any way to fix this?
    Cheers John

    you should post your question in the Business One section at SAP Business One Application

  • SAP Business One 8.8. Report doesn't show and workstation doesn't respond.

    Hi all,
    We have a customer with:
    SAP Business One 8.8 (8.80.237) PL: 19 HOTFIX1.
    Sql Server 2005
    Crystal Reports 12.1.3.1028
    We have done some reports wich run under server machine but not under workstation.
    Even i've done a dummy report without any data connection and it doesn't run under workstation (server machine works perfectly). This dummy report only show a label with static text "Hola".
    We don't receive any error message, SAP Business One client doesn't respond and in task manager you can see "not responding" message.
    SAP support connected to our customer installation and they suggested us formatting workstations computers. We did it but the problem persists. Thank you very much for your help.
    Kind regards,
    Nauzet Díaz

    Hi,
    In this case, why you not responded to SAP for their suggestion of formatting the workstation?
    If you unfortunately closed the old support ticket, then just raise a new support ticket with reference of the old one too.

  • How to run SAP BUSINESS ONE 8.8 clients on windows and use MaxDB on linux/W

    Good day,
    As the subject shows we have SAP BUSINESS ONE 8.8 and I want to find out how to use it in combination with MaxDB instead of MS SQL. I find a lot of MaxDB stuff on the net but no guides on how to setup SAP BUSINESS ONE 8.8 clients on windows workstations and connect them to MaxDB.
    Is this possible and if so how do I go about doing it ?
    Any assistance is greatly appreciated .

    Hi,
    I suggest you to check the supported server for B1 in this link:
    http://service.sap.com/smb/sbo/platforms
    You will know the sap b1 supported platform.
    If you really want to use maxDB on linux/W as B1 server, you can send a development request to SAP AG.

    Hi All,
    I installed Crystal Report 2008 on my system for creating a report in Crystals.
    I clicked on "New Report" and it opened a window called "Database Exert." However, when I look in the Database Expert, I cannot see "SAP Business One" in it. How can I connect SAP Business One 8.8 with Crystal Report?
    Regards,

    Hi
    On your computer, locate the Crystal folder according to the following directory path: C:\Program Files\SAP\SAP Business One\Crystal. Then double-click the file: SAP Business One Crystal Report Integration Package.exe. and follow the step of the setup status screen.
