Connecting SAP BI 4.1 to BPC 10

Hi,
I am looking to connect SAP BI 4.1 to BPC 10 and want to understand the best way to connect to the system.
We were SAP BPC 7.5 and the ODBO connector was bad...very bad...
So we had to export data out of BPC to BW.
I know these is a XMLA connector in SAP BPC 10 and will be trying it out.
Has anyone got any experience or best practices on this.
Thanks,

I have found note:
1731626 - Data source connectivity options between BusinessObjects BI tools and BPC
which includes the following:
Web Intelligence BI 4.0
Data source
Runtime connectivity
requirements
Design time requirements
BPC 7.5 (MS, NW)
UNX  + XMLA
IDT
BPC 7.5 (MS, NW)
OLAP UNV +BPC ODBO 2.0
UDT
BPC 10 MS
UNX  + XMLA
IDT
BPC 10 NW
BICS / BEx Query
BEx Query Designer
In turn it looks like I can create a BICs connection via a BEx Query. I know this was not supported in BPC 7.5.
I am trying to find the correct document to understand how i would carry out this connection? Can anyone point me in the correct direction.
Thanks

  • Error Connecting SAP Business One and Crystal Report

    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,
    Bharath S

    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.

    are these LUNs shared or standalone?
    I don't think it's really wise to have more than one DSM on the same server, so you're mixing the EVA and 3par DSMs and on 2003...
    other than ensuring that HBA firmware and drivers are all up to date and DMS drivers are at the latest, not much else you can do from the host side...maybe update the storport.sys driver to the latest for that OS
    are you sure that the HBAs are in fact supported/compatible with both storage back-ends? what about their driver/firmware/DSM versions - some SANs are very picky when it comes to this stuff, check the interop matrixes to find out
    overall, if you don't need SAN connection to one of these storage back-ends, I suggest you get rid of it and its DSM

  • Connecting SAP CRM (or R/3) to FileNet

    We are implementing a SAP CRM 5.0 system, and FileNet P8 is to be used as the document repository for SAP CRM.
    We are using the FileNet adaptor, called ACSAP for SAP R/3, which allows us to connect to SAP CRM using the generic ArchiveLink functionality. However, we have found that the generic SAP ArchiveLink functionality is very restricted compared with the standard SAP CRM document management (e.g. versioning, creation from templates etc).
    For example the documents tab on a SAP object, such as the business partner, allows users to import or create documents from new or from a template.  The user will be prompted to enter metadata and this document will have a version associated with it and it can be checked in and checked out by the user.  However we are currently using ArchiveLink which requires the user to click "activate ArchiveLink" to create the ArchiveLink folder.  In order to save a document in ArchiveLink the user must then import or create a document in the ArchiveLink folder.  Unfortunately most of the functionality mentioned previously, such as creation from a template and metadata capture, is not available when creating a document in the ArchiveLink folder.  We have also found that due to the lack of metadata the document name is generically assigned and thus is not useful to the user for identification.
    In addition it is not possible to force users to save their documents into ArchiveLink, therefore they are able to save them outside of the required document repository. We have been unable to find a good solution to this problem.
    So we want to know if it is either possible to:
    - Specify that SAP CRM document management use ArchiveLink as its standard document repository?
    - Connect FileNet/ACSAP directly to SAP CRM document management without using ArchiveLink?
    Has anyone had experience connecting SAP CRM (or SAP R/3) to FileNet, and is able to provide us with some insight?
    Thanks

  • How to connect SAP R/3- System with SAP NetWeaver Portal (2004s)?

    Hello to all,
    sorry, can someone help me? How can I connect SAP R/3- System with SAP NetWeaver Portal (2004s)?
    Thanks and regards,
    Galyna

    Hi,
    In previous link contain this info
    This describes how to connect an SAP R/3 system to SAP NetWeaver Portal using an iView
    1)      Go to System Administration
    2)      Go to System Configuration
    3)      Go to Portal Content (Right Side Panel), open that folder.
    4)      Right Click on Portal Content, a Panel is displayed select "System (from Template)".
    5)      That will display a new view on right side, now select "SAP system using dedicated application server" from
    the existing templates. (Other templates are possible - for example, load balanced or through a SAProuter connection string).
    For this exercise, we'll use the simplest type.
    6)      Choose next
    7)      Give the System Name and System Id (which are mandatory fields) incase you want to give any brief notes
    about the system then give them in the "Description" field.
    8)      Open the Newly Created System.
    9)      Now when you want to create a New System, you have to fill four Properties they are:
    "Connector" - contains basic connectivty details
    "Internet transaction Server (ITS) - if you wish to use SAPGUI for HTML and/or IACs",
    "Web Application Server" - if you wish to access BSPs and/or Web Dynpro for ABAP and
    "User Management".
    You also need at least one "System Alias" has to be defined from the Display drop down menu.
    Make sure you have set end user access in the Permissions drop down menu to all users who need to access the system
    10)  Select "Connector" property, now fill the required fields such as:
    a)      Application Host (should be fully qualified hostname) - Give the R/3 "Application Name",
    which can be obtained from the SAP Logon Pad (check what R/3 system you are using, right click on it , go to the properties,
    it will open a window which has the Application Server Name.
    b)      Logical System Name - Give the logical name as defined in the backend system
    c)      SAP Client - Check the Client in the backend system and give the appropriate number (3 digits)
    d)      SAP System ID(SID)* - Check the R/3 properties and give the check for System ID
    e)      System Type* - Since we are connecting to R/3, select SAP_R3 system.
    f)       System Number - This is a two digit number that you can find in the SAP Logon Pad
    11)  Select "Internet transaction Server (ITS)" property, now fill the required fields like
    a)      ITS Description à Give some Description
    b)      ITS Host Name - Same as "Application Host" of R/3 (when integrated ITS) and should be attached with the
    port number of ITS Server (to get port number detailed description is given below). ex: hostname : port number
    c)      ITS Path - To get the path along with the port number you have to Log on to R/3 system. Use the
    Transaction Code "SICF", it opens a new window go to:
          default_host -> sap -> bc -> gui -> sap -> its -> webgui -> SAP GUI for HTML -> right click on
    that and click "Test Service'. This will open a new window, on the address bar you will find the "port number", and
    the path something like (/sap/bc/gui/sap/its/webgui). Use the path after the port number.
    d)      ITS Protocol - There are two protocols "http" & "https", select the appropriate protocol which is
    visible when you opened "Test Service" window.
    12)  Select "Web Application Server" property , now fill the required fields like
    a)      Web AS Description -> Give some Description
    b)      Web AS Host Name - same as ITS Host Name
    c)      Web AS Path - usually /sap/bc/bsp/sapd)*    
    Web AS Protocol - should be same as the ITS Protocol.
    13)   Select "User Management" property, now fill the required fields like
    a)      Authentication Ticket Type - Since we are not using SSO leave the field
    empty i.e. put in select mode. (Please note that longer term you will probably want to use SSO)
    b)      Logon Method - Select UIDPW.
    c)      User Mapping Type - In case you have administration rights then you choose "admin" or in case you
    just have user rights then choose "user", better go for "admin/user".
    14)   Since all the required fields are filled appropriately now create a System Alias name, this can be done by following steps:
    a) go to Display -> Select "System Aliases" give some Alias Name, let's call it "SAP_R/3"
    15)  Now that System is created we have to create a iView which will display the given Transaction Code.
    16)  Go To "Content Administration".
    17)  Go To "Portal Content".
    18)  Go to Portal Content (Right Side Panel), open that folder
    19)  Right Click on Portal Content, a Panel is displayed select "New" -> iView
    20)  Select iView template, click next
    21)  Select "SAP Transaction iView" from the list of templates available. Click next.
    22)  Give the iView name and iView ID. Incase you want to give any brief notes about the iView then give it in "Description" field. Click next
    23)   Select "SAP GUI for HTML" radio button. Click next
    24)  Now select the system which you have create "SAP_R/3", give some Transaction Code, say SE12 (Dictionary Display). Click next and Finish.
    25)  Now Preview the iView
    26)  You will see a new Window where in SE12 Dictionary Display window is displayed.

    Hi Tony,
    For a R/3 4.6C system you can connect using IDOC or RFC adapter.
    For a WebAS 6.20 system you can connect using IDOC or RFC adapter, or by using ABAP Proxies. To enable ABAP proxies, you will need to install the APPINT plugin on the system.

  • Error when connecting SAP CRM to SUP using JCO

    Hi Gurus,
    we are trying to connect SAP CRM (v 7.0 Ehp1 SP3) to Sybase Unwired Server Platform 2.0 (installed on a 64bit workstation) using JCO.
    Following the instructions into the following link:
    http://infocenter.sybase.com/help/index.jsp?topic=/com.sybase.infocenter.dc01283.0200/doc/html/asc1229701333453.html
    and given the informationfound into the forum, we performed the following steps:
    1) Copy librfc32.dll (32bit) and sapjcorfc.dll (64bit, if not an error
    is thrown) to "D:\Sybase\UnwiredPlatform\Servers\UnwiredServer\lib"
    2) Copy librfc32.dll (32bit) and sapjcorfc.dll (32bit) and paste them
    to C:\WINDOWS\sysWOW64
    3) Copy librfc32.dll (32bit) and sapjcorfc.dll (32bit)
    to 'D:\Sybase\UnwiredPlatform\JDK1.6.0_24\bin'
    4) Copy sapjco.jar (32bit) to
    "\Sybase\UnwiredPlatform\Unwired_WorkSpace\Eclipse\sybase_workspace\mobile\eclipse\plugins\com.sybase.uep.com.sap.mw.jco_<version>\lib"
    5) Copy sapjco.jar (32bit)
    to "D:\Sybase\UnwiredPlatform\Servers\UnwiredServer\lib\3rdparty"
    With this configuration, we are able to connect to CRM from Eclipse (Sybase Unwired Workspace) but if we open Sybase Control Center, and we go to Domains -> Connections, we select CRD connection, we go to Properties then we click on "Test connection", SCC remains stuck with no responce. This issue does not allow us to connect to Sybase-SAP
    using an Ipad application (the application remains stuck the same).
    We also tried to install SapGui, but with no results. Did we place the right files into the right directories? Do you have any suggestions=
    Thanks in advance,
    Fabio

  • Connecting SAP with an independent SQL database

    Dear all,
    I need to connect SAP with an independent MSSQL database.
    My requirement is to transfer a set of records from my Ztable to a table in SQL database.
    I have maintained the settings in DBCO transaction. I maintained DBMS as 'MSS' in DBCO.
    send some sample code of how to establish the connection. Is it possible to write data in to SQL database.
    How to edit the file tnsnames.ora in application server directories. I heard that for connecting to an oracle database we need to edit this , is it necessary to edit this tnsnames.ora even for connecting with SQL database?
    Thanks in advance.
    Lakshman

    This is not possible.
    My suggestion is that you create shell scripts on the unix side that copy the data to the other database.
    ARD runs it's own private copy of PostGgreSQL inside the package so it won't interfer with any other SQL databases on the network or even on the machine.

  • Integrate or connect SAP system to non-SAP system

    Hi All,
    We need to connect SAP system or integrate inspHire rental software to SAP. Do you know the process or initial summary on how to integrate this one?
    As of now, the only way that we know to integrate SAP to non-SAP for posting is thru LSMW and batch input.
    your suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

    Hi,
    LSMW is just tools for integration and you can use BDC Call Transaction, BDC session or BAPI, or Function to update something ins SAP.
    1/Easier is if your non-SAP system is able to create file and ftp to SAP folder.
    2/You will have background job running program that will every 5minutes or hour or daily(it is up to you how fast dat has to be bring to SAP) check if file was create in SAP folder.
    3/Program will move file to folder in process
    4/Program will process file, usinf function, or call transaction to update SAP on the base of file
    5/Program will move file to process folder
    If you need more info give me detail about what you would like to update in SAP and I could send you code.
