Enhancements planned in Remote Support Platform for SAP Business One 9.1
RSP is planned to support both SAP Business One on Microsoft SQL Server as well as SAP Business One on HANA Database
RSP Processes and Reports adapted to SAP HANA Database
With this plan RSP will help in the areas of Download, Installation, Go-Live Check, Monitoring, Upgrade and Support for SAP Business One both   on SQL Server and HANA.
But like me (non-SAP B1 Consultant) many of you have the question what is RSP and how it helps in support? Here I have tried to gather all information.
What is Remote Support Platform for SAP Business One?
The remote support platform for SAP Business One is designed to protect a SAP Business One installation by providing automated and remote support in a high-volume business.
The platform monitors the entire SAP Business One environment. By significantly reducing the time between the appearance, identification, and resolution of issues, the remote support platform for SAP Business One minimizes the impact on customer databases and processes.
Some Key Features of Remote Support Platform:
Showing alerts to SAP B1 Admin about the events which require their attention, such as low disk space, database backups, etc.
Incident Reports against the issues identified which require attention of SAP Support
Company Database Backup and Restore options
Regular fixes of Company Database inconsistencies
Check, Download and Install regular updates in SAP Business One
Upload Logs and required files to SAP Support or to Partner Support on regular basis
Some details about RSP Backup Management
Schedule daily, weekly, and monthly backups
Perform differential and full database backups
Back up transaction logs
Back up files to shared folders on a network
System Status Report through RSP
From June 1st 2013, it will be mandatory to install, configure and upload the System Status Report (SSR) from Remote Support Platform (RSP) for SAP Business One in order to receive support for messages of a technical nature (upgrades, performance & crashes, etc).
Database uploads only via RSP
From June 1st 2013 SAP Business One Support will only accept database uploads to SAP via remote support platform for SAP Business One. In certain exceptional circumstances STFP may be used but this will constitute a minority of cases.
Microsoft Windows PowerShell Scripting
In the remote support platform studio, you can create tasks using Microsoft Windows PowerShell scripting. PowerShell enables you to perform remote administrative tasks on customers’ Microsoft Windows operating systems, by providing full access to Component Object Model (COM) and Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI).Some Network Prerequisite for RSP
To achieve the internet connection test, you must allow port 80 for the RSP external communication
Disabling antivirus firewall or add the RSP to the trusted zone of the antivirus
Set the correct proxy
Disabling Windows firewall in the TP_link Wireless Configuration Utility

Problem Installing Business Objects XI 3.1 SP2 on AIX 5.3

Hi,
We installed Business Objects XI 3.1 first on AIX 5.3 and everything worked fine.
Once we apply BO XI 3.1 SP2 patch (by running the install.sh script from the
BO XI 3.1 SP2 install bits) onto the Business Objects XI 3.1instance, the following error
[error] Errcode 1: gzip -dc "/apps/truecomp/boXI31-temp/xi31_sp2/pkg/jdk00000.tar.gz" | /bin/tar xvfb - 1
during the installation ( when we checked, the package "jdk00000.tar.gz" contained mostly some libraries
that are already existing under the installed java/bin directory, the error is likely due to tar command can't
overwrite the existing files there), and it seems that the library files in "jdk00000.tar.gz" package are same as
the existing files under java/bin directory. So this error may not matter (just our guess).
The real problem for us after installing BO XI 3.1 SP2 is that, the tomcat log (file name "catalina.out") throws
the following exception and tomcat can't start up, so we can't log onto CMC anymore. Anyone know if this is
a known issue or any solution or workaround? The frustrating thing is that, SP2 can't be uninstalled (
it likely thinks SP2 was not installed successfully), and this whole BO XI 3.1 instance is not usable anymore,
we have to remove the whole thing altogether (no way to remove just SP2 part).

the directory (in the error stack from tomcat)

Would really appreciate any comments on this problem, especially from SAP support team.
We are really stuck here.

WAS Inst on the NetWeaver 7.2 platform for the Business Objects XI 4.0 SP1

Hello to all,
I have tried to install the WAS on the NetWeaver 7.2 platform for the Business Objects XI 4.0 SP1.
Ok, more preciselly. I have tried to install SP1 for the Business Objects Enterprise XI 4.0. We have had a distributed installation. An application is under the Windows 2k8 R2 platform and the web server (WAS) is under the Unix, where runs the SAP NewWeaver 7.2 CE.
Installation of the SP1 on the application side has ran just fine. Installation of SP1 under Unix went fine as well till I tried to undeploy the previouse one WAS. At first it could not start, it could not find the java, even the wdeployGUI.sh should use its own java, while it happens. I have edited a profile of the appropriate user for using this "own" java. The same I had to do for the pearl. It ran, but It took a very long time - more than two hours. (We have experience from the base installation, that it supposed to be very quick.) So, I have killed three apropriate processes and wav, undeploying ended successfully.
Next, I started to deploy a new WAS. But it has been broken several times with the information (from the <INSTALL PATH>/sap_bobj/enterprise_xi40/wdeploy/logs/wdeploy.log), It could not reach the server with the error message: "Error occurred during the action deployall", "$". I am sure, the acess datas are correct.
Any ideas?
I thing there is some problem with the java and pearl settings. But I can not find relevant webappdeploy_unix document for the SP1, so I do not know, why the deploying could not start automatically as in the case of the base (non SP) installation.

Hi Randy,
Universe is an important part of the Semantic Layer, whether it is version 3.x or version 4.x of SAP BusinessObjects. In version 4.0 (officially known as BI 4.0), you will be using the new Information Design Tool to build universe. It is highly recommended for all of your presentation tools (i.e. WebI, Crystal, Xcelsius/Dashboard, etc) to go through the new Information Design Tool for data (including BW data).
The BI 4.0 Virtual Launch is scheduled on Feb 23. I suggest you to sign up at http://virtualevents.sap.com/business-analytics/login.aspx.
By the way, the SAP BusinessObjects does not have a version 3.2. The most current one is version 3.1. You might be confused with the FixPack which is now up to 3.4.
Hope this helps.

Install Business Objects XI R2 on Windows Server 2008

Hi,
I want to install Business Objects on Windows Server 2008 using IIS7 however i cannot select the IIS ASP.Net option when I get to the "Choose Web Component Adapter Type" screen.

Ok,
After not having much like with installing on IIS7.0 i opted to do an install with the TomCat Server.
This was also not successful, It seems that TomCat relies on a service called NTLMSSP
this has been removed in both Vista and Server 2008.. (I guess this is why ive been having so many issues!)...
After doing some reading on the above mentioned service it is quite possible that IIS 7 could also be using it.
Thanks for all your responses, but i guess this is a definate thing now (just in case some one else comes looking for this information)

How to restrict permissions for individual business object fields?

I know that ACE can restrict permissions (read/write/delete) for entire business objects (Business Partner, Opportunity, Activity...).
Is it possible to assign security permissions (read/write) to individual attributes of business objects? For example, I want that some users could not view phone number for Business Partner.

We had similar requirement for transaction but that was more to do edit or non-edit authorization at field level, but i feel this will work for your scenario too.
First there is no standard tool available to do this, so, you'll have to create your own authorization objects in transaction SU21 (Basis will be able to do that) lets say ZAUTHOBJ, and then assign permitted activities for this object i.e. create/generate, change, display. Then you this authorization object in UI coding to check the permission level and give access at field level. Don't forget to assign this object to your PFCG role.
I'm not technical so can't tell you where to put the code on UI (may be some prepare output method), your tech team will be able to help you.
Also, its good idea to have seperate auth object for each field you want to restrict because of scalability in future.
Hope this gives you some idea...

Vikas

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.

Workflow: Auto forward for next level for decision with object (RFQ)

Hi all,
I have the same requirement as the one in this post but for RFQ approval instead of PO
Workflow -Auto forward for next level for decision with object (PR)
I have tried deadline monitoring, but I need to capture the level in which the RFQ is in order to escalate.
Can someone let me know how to proceed further.
Regards,
nsp.

Hi Aamir,
As you said we have to use deadline monitoring here.
For this case use 'Requested Start'. From your i came to know this workitem should be a dialog workitem, so the workflow will wait for the time what you have specified in the requested start and when it is reached it places the workitem in the corresponding recipient inbox.

Generic approach to call a method for any business object

My requirement is to call the DISPLAY method of a business object when I have the objectType and objectId.
Say I have BUS2012 and Id 4500001111, now I want to call a method which invoke the DISPLAY method for this object with objectId (say ME_DISPLAY_PURCHASE_DOCUMENT for purchase order). I even have the key fields for the business object.
Is it possible ?
Thanks in advance !
Ruhi Hira

Hi Ruhi,
Yes you can call the method for display.Before we can do that we need to fix the procedure for the calling of the method.If you want to call it programitically or you want to call it in task builder or you want to use it as a activity in the work item.we can check for the BUSXXXXXX what ever number is there and we can also check for the activity type pre defined by SAP for it.If suppose you dont have the activity we can create the method for the BOR object type using SWO1.May be it helps your query.
Have a best day ahead.
