Connect two Business Object (BUS2038 and BUS0010) in Workflow!

Hi experts!
I have a Workflow based in BUS2038 (Maintenance Notification), I can see attributes like Functional Location (code).
My problem is, i can´t put Functional Location (Description) that is an attribute in BUS0010 (Functional Location) with an input Functional Location (code).
BUS2038
Input: Notification number
Output: Functional Location (code) (attribute)
BUS0010
Input: Functional Location (code)
Output: Functional Location (description) (attribute)
I want put Functional Location (description) in a mail step.
How I can achieve this?
Thank in advance

Thank you Rick Bakker, I implemented this BUS0010 in BUS2038 (and delegate) but when I was testing, the link between two business objects is <nothing>. Do you need any program for connect both Business Objects?
Thank in advance!

Can SQL Server (2008 R2/2012) Integration Services connect to Business Objects / Hyperion directly?

Hi,
I have a situation where I need to pull data from Business Objects and
Hyperion using
SSIS (2008 R2/2012). I did some pro-active research on how to go about implementing this on a couple of Forums and could only figure out the below solution.
We can create an ODBC DSN / connection for Business Objects and that can be used by SSIS as a connection manager to directly link to the Business
Objects Universe. (http://www.forumtopics.com/busobj/viewtopic.php?p=622922&sid=fbb54541e1daacf9714a5672b5ed1314)
Question 1 - Has anyone tried to implement this in past? Is this possible directly or can be achieved through some workarounds? sharing inputs/experience on this will be highly appreciated!
Question 2 - If this possible in any way , how to get this thing set-up in an environment where SSIS and BO are residing on two different domains/networks. Any way to establish a connection from SSIS
to the BO instance/server?
Would really appreciate if anyone can help me out with this issue.
Thanks

Two Business Objects to fill a Data Grid/table using Anchors?

Hi,
I have a SAP standard tile were a table (grid) is filled by an Business Object. I want to add an additional column and retrieve the value from another Business Object.
My questions
1) Can I use Anchors to automatically set the relationship between two Business Objects A & B, so that I can just Drag & Drop an additional field from Business Object B to the DataGrid of Business Object A in the design screen without writing additional code?
2) Some BO's do come with a predefined relationship to other BO's, but in the case of I have to write a supply function do I have to use a specific "Data Source Type" such as "Business Object", "BusinessQuery" or "Business CollectioN"?
3) I already tried to write a supply function, but I realized that the system does return for some BO's or BS's a object instance, if I call "gFactory.newBusinessQuery". Is there any logic/restriction behind?
I know I can use RowLoaded2 and a unbound column, but I want to know if this approach is also possible?
Thank you for any help,
Regards,
Andreas

Hi Andreas,
The answer to your question is YES. You can very well do it without any changes at the code level.
The scenerio can be implemented using a concept called JointField Mapping in MAS.
Scenerio 1 :
If you want to display the extra field from another BO in a list tile on the click of a search button from the search tile , then
Please do the following :
1. Select the Busines Query that you have associated to the search tile and go to properties from the View Designer.
2. In the properties, Click on the Joint Field Mapping and select the BO where the extra field id present and select the primary key, Segment Field associated, (extra field)BO Property that you want to display in the list tile.
2. Add a new control (new Field) in the List tile - ie, From the Toolbox (Tileset COntrols).
3.Go to properties of the newly added control. Associate the anchor as the same achor as the list tile was pointing to earlier. for eg : Y_BOCAPGEN.
4. Then Go to BCOLFieldName property and give the property name as the newly added BO property name(New field).
After everything is modelled, You will be able to see the extra field in your application!!!!
NOTE : Ofcourse, After the Successful generation.
Scenerio 2 :
If you want to display an Extra Field in a Detail tile,
1. Go to Relationship of the BO from the Detail tile and go to properties.
2. In the properties, You can find the Joint Field Mapping porperty.
3. This property is again modelled as explained in scenerio 1.
Hope, It would have definetly helped and answered your query.
Have a good day!!

Connecting to Business Objects

I am running Crystal Reports xi R2 Standard. My knowledge of Business Objects is limited. I have recently had Business Objects installed and now wish to connect to the Universe. However, there is no selection in database expert in Crystal to connect to the Universe. Firstly I thought I was running the wrong Crystal SP but after upgrading to SP6 there is no difference. I do not find any reference to similar problems any where on the net. I am able to open existing rom the Universe by browsing there, but I cannot run them as I get an error "The Database Connector 'crdb_universe.dll' could not be found"
Am I running the correct version of Crystal Reports to connect to a Universe running on MY SQL, but connecting to a CA MDB Database running on SQL2005? Are there any client-side ODBC settings that need to be in place? If so, what driver should be used and where should they be pointed? What else can I try? I have seen references to a fix (ADAPT01038498), but I assumed this would be included in SP6.

Hi Garth,
Is the BOE server XI R2 also? If not that would be one problem, they must both be the same version and try to use the same patch level. Second, there is a Client install on the BOE CD, run it on your PC where you have CR installed. Then you may have to do a repair install of CR so it will find all of the drivers. Use the Custom Option and select the database drivers. I don't recall if Universe was an option now. If not then the client install should install it for you. Then when you go to the database Wizard you should see Enterprise or Repository as an option.
Thank you

Can we link two business objects in workflow?

Dear All,
Can we link two business objects in workflow?My problem is that I have to take a standard BO for triggering my z workflow .But later in one step I am using BO which is Z as I am calling a standard Sap transaction in one of the method inside Zobject.
Please let me know how to go for it .
Kind Regards,
Anshu Kumar

Hi Anshu,
You can use the standard BO as the BO for your workflow and trigeger the workflow from its event. To pass values from the standard BO to the custom BO used in the activity step, you need to do proper binding between the std and custom BO in the activity step.
Do proper binding between event -> workflow -> task container.
For assistance on binding in workflows refer to the followng links:

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.

Difference between Business Objects Explorer and Polestar

Hi all,
can anyone help me out with the main differences between Business Objects Explorer and Polestar.
thanks & regards
immanuel.

Explorer is the new product name for Polestar. There have been a few versions of Explorer released since it was called Polestar, but you can find the latest 'whats new' doc here which lists the latest additions:
http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/boexplXI32/en/exp32_whats-new_en.pdf
For one, Explorer now comes in two editions... Standard and Accelerated. The Explorer Standard edition allows reporting off of Universes, just as the original Polestar product did. Explorer Accelerated allows reporting off of SAP BWA indexes as well as Business Objects universes. Both versions now allow uploading of excel files to report off of. You can export an Information Space to a Webi doc or Excel file. Users can now save favorite links to an Information Space. Sorting has been improved as well as graphing functions and overall display. You'll have to install the latest build of Explorer - "Explorer 3.2 SP1" and compare. I don't know of a document or matrix that compares Polestar to Explorer. The two are basically the same product with a number of enhancements added to the Explorer line.

Database connectivity to business objects

CA Forum: Administration
Hi All,
I am new to for my first project, having good knowledge about BO but my only concern is with the first day target.
As a new team mate memeber what are my roles and responsibilites to be done.
How to interact with the Administrator to get my database connectivity and then how to implement the path provided by the admin people to get my database activate and then to connect it to the business objects.
So again i am requesting you all if you any one among you, who has already gone through this situation could help and make to understand how to connect the database to business objects.
And how to present ourslef in a new environment.
Thanks,
Anu.

Anu,
This is one of those forum threads that could last all year with comments, tips, and criticisms. If you have a lot of knowledge about BusObjects, then you are nearly half way there. In my experience, the biggest road block to success is communication and team cohesiveness. If everyone on the project are not communicating with each other then everything is going to fail. What do I mean about communication? It's hard to pin down, but when I see it I'll know it's there (smile). For starters it's having a good plan that everyone can work from. An underlying theme in communications is also trust. The folks who hand out the userids and passwords must be able to trust the folks who are receiving the privileges. If the administrator must give you read/write access to his or her database and they don't "know" you, then this is an uphill battle. Many administrators do not understand middleware such as BusObjects, they are more familiar with things like Access, and such -- the more simpler applications. When you try throwing terms around like business intelligence, single-sign on, multiple queries, data providers, meta data, report viewer, etc, etc their heads start to spin and they want you OUT of their sight. All of these concepts must be introduced gently and in an appropriate setting. The admins must get familiar and comfortable with your tools before you can make headway. So that is what I mean by communication, in this case laterally. You must also communicate upwards (the C-level folks), and downward, the users. Like I said, folks could add to this thread infinitum, and I would invite other as such, but here are some things to think about as you move forward. The best teacher is experience, but who has time for that?

Hi,
Basically, there is no difference. Till the version 7.0, it was called business planning and consolidation. From 7.5 ,its called business objects planning and consolidation.

Unpermitted combination of business object BUS2032 and sales doc. category

Dear all
I try to create a sales document category L (Debit memo request) with the BAPI BAPI_SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT2
I get the error message: Unpermitted combination of business object BUS2032 and sales doc. category L
Is there a specific Bapi for creating this sales document?
Herbert

Magic or not, but try something like this
CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_SALESDOCU_CREATEFROMDATA'
EXPORTING
   ORDER_HEADER_IN = lt_order_header_in
   BUSINESS_OBJECT = 'BUS2096'
   WITHOUT_COMMIT = ' '
IMPORTING
   SALESDOCUMENT = l_vbeln
   RETURN = li_return
TABLES
ORDER_ITEMS_IN = lt_order_items_in
ORDER_PARTNERS = lt_order_partners.

Business Objects Edge and Crystal reports integration.

I'm new to the SAP BO application and I would like to know how to allow users to create and publish Crystal Reports via the Business Objects applicaiton. Currently I have published some reports and the users are able to View then via the InfoViewer Web interface. Now I have a request to allow the users to create their own Crystal reports and publish them. The problem is that the users are not part of my companies network but we have a VPN connection that they user to login to the InfoViewer Web front end to view the reports I have published.

Hi Ed,
what for a Database do you mean ? The Repository Database or the Database with your productive Data for Designing the Reports?
1.
When they enter their username and password in InfoView the Application Server (Tomcat) does it.
2.
Via their ODBC connection. Or when you use Oracle via the native client.

Business Objects, InfoBus and DataForms

HI!
I have created two projects
1. the STATJB - Busines Components
2. the STATManagerApp - Interface application
In the Interface application i need two forms
1. The form with non editable grid with list of clients and buttons: <new>, <edit>, <delite>
2. The form with fields of the current selected client from the first form for editing
I use Business Objects, InfoBus Components and DataForms.
I still don't understand the right way of using them together. :(
Where can i find any description and example of the correct framework?

Sunko,
I recommend the online help for instructions on the basic process for binding the Infobus data items and controls to their Business Components counterparts.
For information on programming specific controls such as buttons, events, etc, you might try the javasoft website. The Infobus controls are based on Swing. Programming events, launching new frames for editing, are typical activities you would perform with Swing components. The javasoft website has tutorials and online documentation which you might find helpful.

Integrating Business Object Attributes and Database attribute

Newbie using Oracle BPM 11g
I am trying the following:
1)Display two process fields from Business Objects (say firstname, last name) and one field which is a dropdown (say branchcode) from database using ADF UI.
2)Initiator enters the firstname,lastname and then selects a branchcode from the drop down and submits the form.
3)A Reviewer has to view these three fields selected by the Initiator.
My question is how do we enable the reviewer to see the branchcode selected by the Initiator(as it is list of values from database and not from a business object)
Sudip

Hi,
unfortunately this didn't solve it.
The confusing is, that I see the System in the loaded DQE window at the metadata loader, but the corresponding business objects of this system appear without any parameters.
I have no idea what else to do!

Connection with Business Objects Credential Mapping

Hello,
We are on BOXI 3.1 SP2. We have a SQL Server 2005 database - which recognizes our Windows AD accounts and allows us access based on that.
I am trying to create a Universe connection that can use Business Objects Credential Mapping, so that users can use their AD account to access data. However the login always fails.
Can you please let me know if I am missing any steps here? We normally use SQL server accounts for connection , but we are trying to integrate and use AD security.
Thanks a lot.

When you are using BO Credential mapping in universe connection, you have to set the database userid and password in the user settings in CMC. Have you done that ?
Also make sure that while configuring AD authentication in CMC, you have not selected any option to update users' data source credentials at log on time.
