Hi
When you have said ECC, it suggests a transactional system and Business Objects Offer Crystal Reports as industry standard and of course best reporting tool.
To use Crystal Reports on top ECC transaction system, SAp Integration Kit should be installed on the system where we have installed Crystal reports. CRystal reports is a client tool.
On installation of Integration Kit necessary drivers to connect to ECS will be installed and you can coonect to ECS and develop reports in Crystal reports.
Now distribution of reports, if the distribution of reports is in some PDF format or crystal natve format and end uses view using Adobe r Crytsal Reports Viewer.
But if you plan to publish the reports and distribute the reports, then you may need to go for either Crystal reports Server or Business Objects Enterprise/Edge server
Hope this clarifies your doubt. Let me know if more information is required

  • Create Info objects after extracting ds from ecc

    Hi All,
    I have replicated ds from ecc to bi and executed the infopackage. Now the data is upto psa level. How to create info objects after loading data to psa level to load the info objects to data targets like infocubes and dso. I have done to sucessfully to a flat file.
    Thank you.

    Hi Sudhir,
    You can go into 2 directions: use as much as possible Business Content InfoObjects or use custom InfoObjects. A combination is also possible.
    Especially in conjunction with SAP ECC extractions the Business Content InfoObjects are a safe choice. However, please consider the advantages it can have to use custom InfoObjects.
    If you would like to go into the direction of custom InfoObjects, then I suggest reading the following blogs:
    Generating Data Warehouse InfoObjects - Part 1: Introduction;
    Generating Reporting InfoObjects based on Business Content - Part 1: Introduction.

    Hi,
    I got these below steps from SDNforumonly ..i do not have the link however i have the steps:
    1.check Delivered Languages service.sap.com/languages.
    2.check note 42305
    3.In transaction SMLT , Choose Classify Language (Language symbol or F5 )
    4.Supplement this language with English or German (Recommended)
    5.The language must be defined in the instance profiles so that you can log on in these languages. The relevant parameter is
    zcsa/installed_languages.
    6.Go to the language for which you want to install extra packages and choose or choose Language --> Import Package
    7.in the next screen , enter the path for language packages.
    8.start immediately or schedule it .Optionally you can use the target server to exceute this ( to avoid performance issues
    ,if you are importing in production timings, and you cna exculde this server from logon group )
    9.if any problems in importing then analyze the log and restart the import .
    10.After importing the languages, you must also import the language data in the Support Packages.Choose Language --->
    Special Actions ---> Import Support Packages
    11.Go to the language that you want to supplement and choose or Language ---> Supplement Language(this is client specific ,
    so execute for each client in your system)
    And also to the above if your system is running on non unicode you need to install the code pages (example AIX locale command) .
    Thanks.

  • Delta Replication for Customizing object from ECC- CRM

    I need help on delta replication activate for customizing objects from ECC to CRM.  I finished with initial load with product replication and everything worked weel. The problem is that product hierarchy continuely changing in ECC everyday, so the delta for the products error out due to incorrect product heirarchy in CRM becuase the delta is not working for DNL_CUST_PROD0, and DNL_CUST_PROD1. Please show me how to activate the delta for those DNL.  What business transaction do I need for those so the delta will work for them too?  Rewards points if helpful

    I think you need to do Request downlaod for the Product Hirearchy when ever there is new one created in ECC.You can do request downlaod by creating the object using R3AR2. Exeute the object though R3AR4 and monitor the status using R3AR3.

  • EEWB Bussiness Object

    Hi Experts,
    I'm trying to create a field using EEWB (Easy Enhancement Work Bench). I'm not sure which 'Bussiness Object' has to be chosen for it.
    Need your inputs. TIA.
    Regards,
    Kris.

    Hi Kris,
    For creating the custom fields in Product Master, you don't need to use EEWB.
    You can do this in Settype.
    Goto Tcode : COMM_ATTRSET
    Create the attributes (fields) one by one.
    Create a Settype & assign the attributes.
    once you have created the Settype, Go to Menu SETTYPE/ATTRIBUTE  --> Select transport & Include in a transport request to be moved to other clients.
    Assign the Settype in the Product Category hierarchy (Tcode : COMM_hierarchy )
    Now the fields(attributes) are available for you in product master.

  • Error while creating info object

    error while creating info object a character
    Info object may be a maximum of  000060 digits...... what would be the error?
    Thanks ALL

    Hi,
    The maximum length supported by one CHAR type infoobject is 60. Check whether you have assigned more.
    If you have to load more length ( more than 60) split the total thing into different infoobjects. Create different infoobjects and split the total thing into them - like 1st 60 char in 1st infoobject, char 61-120 in 2nd infoobject and so on. Then you can again concatenate them.
    Thanks,

  • What is the diffrence between extends and creating new object?

    HI ALL,
    what is the diffrence between extends and creating new object?
    meaning
    class base{
    class derived extends base{
    class base{
    class derived {
    derived(){
    base var = new base();
    can u people tell me diffence from the above examples.
    THANKS.
    ANANDA

    When you create a new object you have to supply the class to which that
    object belongs. A class can extend from another class. If it does so
    explicitly you can define the 'parent' class from which the class extends.
    If you don't explicitly mention anything, the class will implicitly extend
    from the absolute base class named 'Object'.
    Your example is a bit convoluted: when you create a Derived object,
    its constructor creates another object, i.e. an object from the class from
    which the Derived class extends.
    Extending from a class and creating an object don't have much in common.
    kind regards,
    Jos

    drangineni, assuming you know the service requestid or externalId of the
    Sr you are dealin gwith you would first set that value.
    ServiceRequest1[] objSRList =new ServiceRequest1[1];
    objSRList[0] = new ServiceRequest1();
    objSRList[0].ServiceRequestId = <YourSRId>;
    Then you create an array of activities and initialize the first one:
    objSRList[0].ListOfActivity = new Activity[1];
    objSRList[0].ListOfActivity[0] = new Activity();
    Now set the data fields
    objSRList[0].ListOfActivity[0].Subject ="My Subject";
    objSRList[0].ListOfActivity[0].Description ="My Description";
    objSRList[0].ListOfActivity[0].Display = "Task"; //valid values are either
    "Task" or "Appointment"
    Then call the ServiceREquestInsertOrUpdate method on the ServiceRequest
    WebService and pass in the above variable.

    Ah yes, I forgot you also need to specify a unquie Id for the activity.
    It's kinda strange.
    Try adding this:
    ServiceRequest[0].ListOfActivity[ActivityLength].ActivityId = "DummyId";
    //OD will overwrite this with a real Id
    Or if you have a unquie ID for your Activities you can use:
    ServiceRequest[0].ListOfActivity[ActivityLength].ExternalSystemId = <Your
    Unique Value>;
    Hope that helps,

    Hi all,
    I have a similar problem, but mine is returning a message that field
    "Display" is required. Looking at this post and the documentation it is
    obvious that Display is a required field, but my WSDL did not include a
    field called "Display", so my proxy did not generate one.
    I tried adding a field called Display to the WSDL and the proxy class, but
    I get a different error... I figure I maybe cannot add it manually like
    that - but I think the bigger problem is it is not part of the WSDL that
    Siebel OD generates for me in my admin account.
    On top of that Display is not shown in the list of fields for Activity
    through the admin interface.. is it possible my account is bugged? Am I
    missing something simple here? BigSlick, I see you mention a .Display in
    your code sample so I thought you might understand what is wrong. Here is
    my code (I am trying to add a activity to a lead).
    Thanks for any insight into this!
    private void InsertLeadActivity(Session session, NameValueCollection data,
    string leadID)
    try
    if (blnDebug)
    Response.Write("Setting up Activity<br>";
    // instantiate the proxy service
    Activity_Service.Activity activityProxy = new Activity_Service.Activity();
    // set up the target URL
    activityProxy.Url = session.GetURL();
    activityProxy.CookieContainer = session.GetCookieContainer();
    // set up input argument
    ActivityNWS_Activity_Insert_Input input = new
    ActivityNWS_Activity_Insert_Input();
    input.ListOfActivity = new Activity1[1];
    input.ListOfActivity[0] = new Activity1();
    if (blnDebug)
    Response.Write("Getting Data<br>";
    // dg note: name value
    // input.ListOfActivity[0].MrMrs = data["MrMrs"];
    input.ListOfActivity[0].LeadId = leadID.ToString();
    input.ListOfActivity[0].Description = DataToString(data);
    input.ListOfActivity[0].Subject = "Website Submission Activity";
    input.ListOfActivity[0].Priority = "3-Low";
    //input.ListOfActivity[0].DueDate =
    DateTime.Now.AddDays(7).ToShortDateString();
    input.ListOfActivity[0].Owner = this.defaultLeadOwner;
    input.ListOfActivity[0].Type = "Call";
    //input.ListOfActivity[0].Display = "Task";
    input.ListOfActivity[0].ActivityId = "DummyId";
    input.ListOfActivity[0].ExternalSystemId = "web";
    activityProxy.Activity_Insert(input);
    catch (Exception exInsertActivity1)
    if (blnDebug)
    Response.Write("<br>Error inserting activity.<br><br>" +
    exInsertActivity1.ToString() + "<br>";

    Figured it out.. the field "Display" is also known as "Activity"........
    Here are some notes for other people.. good luck and feel free to write me
    at raskawa-at-gmail-com if you want a code sample.
    Some unpublished nice to knows for Siebel On Demand Activities....
    In summary:
    - .Activity is also known as Display in documentation and on the error
    messages coming back from the WS. Also, it appears based on these boards
    some people actually have a .Display field. Maybe different accounts
    generate different WSDL's.... buggy.
    - If a error message is thrown saying "Description is required" it really
    means "Subject is required" (make sure .Subject has a value)
    - If a error message is thrown complaining that ActionType is not right..
    that is really .Type.. make sure it's lookup value is valid for the
    dropdown values in your CRM OD system.
    My code/values that worked..
    input.ListOfActivity[0].LeadId = leadID.ToString();
    input.ListOfActivity[0].Description = DataToString(data);
    input.ListOfActivity[0].Subject = "Website Submission Activity";
    input.ListOfActivity[0].Priority = "3-Low";
    //input.ListOfActivity[0].DueDate =
    DateTime.Now.AddDays(7).ToShortDateString();
    input.ListOfActivity[0].Owner = this.defaultLeadOwner;
    input.ListOfActivity[0].Type = "Call";
    input.ListOfActivity[0].ActivityId = "DummyId";
    input.ListOfActivity[0].ExternalSystemId = "web";
    //input.ListOfActivity[0].Display = "Task"; //doesn't work
    input.ListOfActivity[0].Activity = "Task"; //does work.

    Hi,
    This is surgientweb (under my own login now..)
    Anyway, I wanted to add that I figured out that there are two ways to add
    a Activity to a Lead. Via the Lead object (by getting a ListOfActivities)
    OR by creating a Activity directly and just adding your "LeadID" to it (or
    you can also add a "ContactID" to relate the activity to a Contact.)
    Feel free to email me for a code example (raskawa....at....gmail)

    Hi Stephane,
    You can definitely read the categories using Tables in CRM. The logic is a bit complicated though.
    Use the following steps to retrieve Categories using Std. CRM Tables:
    1. Pass transaction GUID in field GUID of table CRMV_REPORT_SUBJ and get KATALOGART, CODEGRUPPE and CODE field values in lv_catalog, lv_codegrp and lv_code.
    2. Now you need to concatenate these 3 fields values carefully like this:
    CONCATENATE lv_catelog lv_codegrp '    ' lv_code into lv_category1.
    Remember there are 4 spaces between lv_codegrp and lv_code.
    3. Now pass this lv_category1 in field OBJEXT in table CRMC_ERMS_CAT_OK and get OBJGUID in field lv_objguid.
    4. Pass this lv_objguid in field OBJ_GUID and LNK_TYPE = 'IS_CODE' in table CRMC_ERMS_CAT_LN and get value of CAT_GUID in lv_cat_guid.
    5. Pass this lv_cat_guid in field CAT_GUID in table CRMC_ERMS_CAT_CA and get value of CAT_ID in field lv_cat_text.
    Remember this lv_cat_text is the text value of your last level of category of transaction.
    6. To get its upper cateogry level value, simply use table CRMC_ERMS_CAT_HI and get parent guid value and pass this as CAT_GUID again in table CRMC_ERMS_CAT_CA to get its text.
    Alternatively, you can also use class method cl_crm_ml_category_util=>get_parse_all to get all levels of categories.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks

  • When I try to open an embedded PDF file I get an error "The program used to create this object is AcroExch.exe.

    When I try to open an embedded PDF file (Word doc) I get an error "The program used to create this object is AcroExch.exe. That program is either not installed on your computer, or is corrupt..."  I've tried  about everything from unchecking
    protected mode at startup to removing & reinstalling Adobe.  Nothing seems to fix this issue.  Any other ideas?
    This is happening on Adobe reader 9, 10 & 11 with MS Word 2010 & 2013.  I've uninstalled, cleaned & reinstalled Reader 9, 10 & 11, as well as Acrobat 10 Pro & 11 Standard.  Removed "Protected mode at startup, and changed
    the default program for viewing from reader to Acrobat.  This will not go away.  It is affecting production at our company.

    " Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder" . i can't find open containing folder in profile directory. it does give me the option to open the places.sqlite file using graphic converter. when i try that, graphic converter gives me a window saying that it can't be opened because it is corrupted or is not a file type supported by graphic converter.
    i appreciate your help with a workaround to get the old bookmarks. that works. however, the problem has morphed from that concern to why adobe reader [the default app.] won't open firefox .sqlite files. is the problem in adobe reader or firefox? also, how can i tell if the places.sqlite file is corrupt?

  • How to create multiple objects within a class

    I have a item.lvclass which has an item.ctl (contains a cluster of class private data).  I need to add another object (item2.ctl) within that same class so that I can reuse the code for that class.
    So how do you create additional objects within the same class?

    Well... right now...  I've cornered myself going down this path:  http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW-Idea-Exchange/LVOO​P-Interfaces/idc-p/1314637#M8918
    Seems like the solution in the idea was not implemented yet....
    Okay.  I will try to describe the situation differently...
    Let's say I have a Car.lvclass
    I want to have two objects:  sedan & roadster
    both have similar properties, but also have different properties:
    4 doors vs 2 doors
    hardtop vs convertible
    silver vs white (color)
    I want the two objects to be of the same class so that they can share the same private and public VI's.  As a matter of fact, I want to have both objects in the VI's within the Car.lvclass.

  • How do I create multiple objects during runtime?

    I don't know how to create multiple objects during runtime, here's my problem:
    I get a String as input. Then I create an object called newobject. I put the object in a hashtable with the above string as key.
    Then comes the problem, in order to create a new object, I have to rerun the same class, which uses the same name (newobject) to create a 2nd object. Now my hashtable doesn't reference to my 1st object anymore...
    Is there anyway I can fill up the hashtable with different objects, and make each key point to each object it was supposed to?
    For those who want to see a bit of the program:
    public class PlayBalloon{
    public Hashtable ht = new Hashtable();
    for(){
    Balloon pB = newBalloon;
    newBalloon=new Balloon(pB);
    ht.put("Some input from user", newBalloon);
    for(){
    ht.get(s).draw;<= s=string, draw=own meth. in Balloon
    }

    I think i can see the problem that you are having. You have, in effect, duplicate keys in your hashtable - ie, two strings used as keys with the same name.
    The way that a hashtable works is as follows...
    When you ask for a value that is mapped to a key it will go through the table and return the first occurence it finds of the key you asked for. It does this by using the equals() method of whatever object the key is (in your case it is a String).
    If you cant use different Strings for your keys in your hashtable then i would consider writing an ObjectNameKey class which contains the String value that you are trying to put in the hashtable and an occurrence number/index or something to make it unique. Remember to override the equals method in your ObjectNameKey object or else the hash lookup will not work. For example
    class ObjectNameKey {
        private String name;
        private int occurence;
        public ObjectNameKey(String name, int occ) {
            this.name = name;
            this.occurence = occ;
        public String getName() {
            return name;
        public String getOccur() {
            return occurence;
        public boolean equals(Object o) {
            if (!(o instanceof ObjectNameKey)) {
                return false;
            ObjectNameKey onk = (ObjectNameKey)o;
            if (onk.getName().equals(name) && onk.getOccur() == occurence) return true;
            return false;

  • Can you create an object from a string

    I have been working on creating a dynamic form, creating the
    form items from an xml file. I am getting very close to conquering
    this task. I will share it when it's complete.
    However, I am stuck at the moment trying to create an object
    from a string. For example, if the xml item is an HBox I want to
    create an HBox. Like this: parentObject = new arrayOfFormItems[
    index ]..type ()
    This isn't working. First, is this possible using some syntax
    I am unaware of in Flex? I don't want to use a large if or case
    statement if possible.
    Thanks in advance for your help!

    Thank you very much. Indeed that did solve the one problem. I
    missed the casting as a Display Object. That is awesome!
    I do still however, have to instantiate one of every item I
    want to dynamically create or I get the following error when I try
    to create a dynamic object that I have not instantiated before.
    ReferenceError: Error #1065: Variable HBox is not defined.

    I read that you have no choice but to instantiate one of each
    type to force the linker to link the code for that class into the
    .swf. Unless you know another way to force it.
    This is what I have in my Application mxml to get it to work:
    <mx:HBox>
    <mx:Text visible="false"/>
    <mx:TextArea visible="false"/>
    <mx:TextInput visible="false"/>
    <mx:DateField visible="false"/>
    </mx:HBox>
    And those are the types I'm using to test with. . . I will
    have to add all the others I want to use as well . . .
