    Hi Rahul,
    You have posted your query in a wrong forum, but still this is the solution:
    You can use macro SWC_CALL_METHOD from include <CNTN01> or directly a FM called SWO_INVOKE.

  • Business Objects Reports 4.1.6 and Oracle 10g

    Hi all,
    One of our clients has an oracle forms 6i application and Business Objects Reports 4.1.6 called from forms with host command. We are going to upgrade the forms application to 10g but would it be possible to integrate this old version of BO in Oracle 10g application (and Oracle 10g DB)
    Does it exist any official spreadsheet which explains the compatibility of BO and Oracle DB?
    Thank you in advance.

  • 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.

  • Open  Business Objects report with J2SE

    Hi, How can I do to open a Business Objects report with J2SE aplicattion?
    Thanks,

    Depending on the version of Crystal Reports / Business Objects you have, there are Java libraries you can use to connect to the Business Objects Application server. I spent a lot of time on BO's website figuring it out. In the end i only needed a few libraries to connect, and ask the server to print a report. I remember that there was a way to have the server send a pdf as a binary stream, that you could then save as a pdf file and read. You can do a lot more with the SDK, to the extent of creating your own report creation tool. If you would like some specifics, i might be able to find the some of the documentation i used. It all came from the BO website.
    Wish i could be more help

  • How to directly call business object class from backing bean class

  • Creating Business Object Reports and Dashboards utilizing Informatica

    I need to create Business Object Reports and Dashboards utilizing Informatica database. Please let me know what connections I need to create to integrate the data into Web Intelligence, Universe, Xcelsius, and Crystal Reports.
    Thank you

    I've just done some quick checking and I don't see a native connection type for Infomatica in Designer or Crystal.  (Designer is a tool for building universes - WebI and Xcelsius both read data through a universe, Crystal can read data through a direct connection to the database or through a universe.) This means you'll probably have to set up a "generic" ODBC connection in order to connect to it.

  • Automating Testing of Business Objects Reports...

    I am a new user to empirix e-Tester and I need some assistance understanding how the program captures events during recording... I am trying to build a very simple test to use against the Business Objects Reporting package.
    Basically, I have the following steps in this test case:
    1. Login to the system. Got this working and configured.
    2. Select a report from the listing of documents. This works.
    3. Enter Report Criteria and submit report. This Works.
    4. Filter report using drop down boxes that contain valid data filters. This doesn't work.
    In step 4, I basically have a screen with 2 frames. The top frame contains drop down lists for the filters. The main frame contains the report data. When I am recording the script it works, but on playback it freezes and times out. If I look through the script, it shows the index of the item I selected in the associated list box. I looked in the address properties and it shows the events (onclick and onchange) and the onchange has the correct index... but it fails to update the data frame with the filtered report... it just times out.
    Does anyone understand what I am doing much less doing wrong? I can attach some screen prints if neccessary to clarify what's going on.
    TIA,
    Wayne

    I have run into similar issues like this in my testing. The issue is usually caused by dynamic option values. When you record a script, eTester captures the value associated with the drop down. If on playback it cannot match its recorded value to a choice in the list (remember a drop down is a restricted list) it will come back with a ?failed to set option value?? There are a couple of ways you can fix this. The first option is to expand the page, address and parameters node that that the script fails on. Find the parameters with value, number (Myval, 1) for example. Right-click the parameter and select properties. Click the ?base on index? button. The tool will now select the option by index instead of value. The other possibility is to select options-->Current Script then select General. Check the first option ?Record all list selection by index.? This will do what is described above globally when scripts are recorded. I hope this is inline with your problem and helps.

  • Exsisting Crystal Reports conversion to Business Objects reports

    hi,
    can existing crystal reports can be converted to Business Objects reports ( Adhoc, webi, deski types ).
    If yes, what versions of CR can be converted to BOBJ reports and what versions could not be.
    Where woud I go to get the information and procedure to get this done.
    Your help is deeply appreicated. Thanks.

    Hi Venkat,
    Unfortunately there is no direct method or tool which can convert the existing Crystal reports to WEBI or DESKI. The best way to go about converting the reports would be to re-create the reports in the required reporting tool.
    All these three reporting softwares are different in working and are designed to suit different reporting needs. So based on the requirements, you can select the tool which best suits your requirement.
    I hope this helps in answering your question.

  • CALLING BUSINESS OBJECT FROM AN ABAP REPORT

    Hi friends,
               I have a business object to which a Custom Function Module is assigned in one of its method.This Function Module calls a Bapi to update a Service Order.I need to capture the status of Idocs regarding success or failure from the function Module in the ABAP Report.I would like to know if there is any way to call this business object from my report and get the status of IDOC.
    Regards,
    Dev Reddy

    sorry I think i was not clear in explaining .I am calling a BAPI to update 'Priority' field of service orders in a custom function module(remote enabled) and I have assigned this bapi to a custom business object. Also I have developed an ALE interface thru BDBG transaction which automatically generates custom basic idoc type,messsage type ,Ale i/b and o/b function modules.
    Actually my requirement deals with a report where we have list of service orders in an internal table and pass each service order to update Priority field.
    Is there any way to create an IDOC from the report and update the priority field and pass back the status of IDOC.
    I have tried calling ALE O/B function function module generated thru BDBG transaction in my report but as a result i am unable to get any of the message whether idoc is created or not.

  • Publishing Business Objects Reports in Portal

    By using Business Objects Enterprise Integration Kit - IView Template I am able to call all the reports (by using report id).but for this i need to create iviews manually.what is the best practise to publish BO reports in portal.
    Regards

  • How to call business objects in BO part from a servlet in lean-webapp

    Hi Gurus,
    for oci-implementation (and as it has been suggested here: http://scn.sap.com/thread/3340669) we want to implement a servlet that calls certain actions in a business object. The servlet resides inside the leanwebapp-DC. The business object is in the bo-part of our own custom module. Our problem is to find a way for the servlet to call the business logic. Our first thought was to go via the moduleAccess. However, we could not figure out how to access the module of the leanwebapp.
    Any suggestions?
    Best regards,
    Christian

    Hey Wolfgang,
    thank you very much for your quick and accurate answer.
    After struggling a little bit with our project setup we implemented your solution and it worked immediately.
    However, we now have the problem to declare the module dependency between the leanwebapp and the bo-part of our module. The Development-and-Extension-Guide for WCEM 3.0 tells us (page 39) to do this in the metadata.xml of the calling module (which would be the leanwebapp). Unfortunately, the leanwebapp does not have a metadata.xml.
    Declaring the dependency in the .dcdef of the leanwebapp-DC leads to either:
    a runtime exception while calling ModuleAccess moduleAccess = wecSession.getModuleAccess("oci"); in the servlet (com.sap.wec.tc.core.modulemgmt.metadata.exceptions.ModuleRuntimeException: Module access of module 'oci' cannot be created. It is not part of the current application.) or
    a runtime time exception while accessing the servlet:
    Caused by: com.sap.wec.tc.core.common.init.InitializeException: Error initializing 'com.sap.wec.tc.core.modulemgmt.metadata.ModuleMetaDataDeploymentModel' com.sap.wec.tc.core.modulemgmt.metadata.exceptions.ModuleRuntimeException: The deployment unit contains multiple JAR files or folders which declare the same part/namespace combination. Module: 'oci', part: 'bo', namespace: 'xxx', JAR/Folder 1: 'D:\usr\sap\DE2\J02\j2ee\cluster\apps\xxx.com\xxx~oci~dpu\app_libraries_container\xxx.com~xxx~oci~bo~assembly.jar', JAR/Folder 2: 'D:\usr\sap\DE2\J02\j2ee\cluster\apps\xxx.com\demo-leanapp\servlet_jsp\demo\root\WEB-INF\lib\xxx.com~xxx~oci~bo~assembly.jar'
    Do you have any hints on how to declare the dependeny properly?
    Best regards,
    Christian

  • How do I change the "Owner" of my Business Objects Reports

    Here is my problem.
    When we upgrade Business Objects we 'convert' a large number of reports to the BO XI rel2 version of the reports.  During this convertion process all the reports were switched to be 'owned' by usercode 'Administrator'.  Our users are now wanting to move/change/delete these reports and they can't because they are not the owner.
    So we need to switch this owner.  Problem is the only way we can find to do this is to copy the report to a new name and delete the old one.  This is very time consuming.  Also many of our users are not priviledged to delete reports that they don't own.  Therefore our administrators are the only ones that can do the delete step.
    It seems like I should be able to logon to the system as 'Administrator' and change the owner of the reports (similiar to doing a chown command in Unix) to whoever I want.  There however doesn't appear to be a way to do that in Infoview or the Central Management Consule.
    Is there a simple easy way to do this??  I have thousands of report to change.
    Thanks Bart

    It's possible via the Enterprise SDK, if you have a Java or .NET programmer.
