SAP Business Objects Explorer on top of SAP BW

Dear Experts,
My Requirement:
- Use BO Explorer on top of SAP BW ( no HANA, no BIA ). This is to provide the users a set of related data and they can analyse the way they want.
Question-1:
- What should be the BW data volume that I should keep in mind for BO Explorer to have good performance. My concern is primarily because we don't use BIA or HANA.
Question-2:
- Can BO Explorer directly connect to a BW Infocube/Multiprovider or it has to connect only through Universes
Regards.

Hi,
I will suggest you Go for SAP Business Objects Analysis, edition for Microsoft Office,ity can connect bex query directly & Bw/Infocubes also.
Regarding Performance we can do In BI Itself depends on Business needs,: modelling , extraction, reporting 3 levels in BI .
For more info : Refer Below :

Thanks.

SAP Business Objects Analysis for Office 1.4 on Microfost Office 64-Bit Version

Hello,
Has anyone installed SAP Business Objects Analysis for Office 1.4 SP6 on Microsoft Office (Excel) 64-Bit Version. I am getting message "The launcher was not able to connect Analysis Add-In. Make sure that Analysis Add-In is not disabled by Office Application".
When I activated the Analysis Add-In, I am getting below Error: "Excel experienced a serious problem with the 'analysis' add-in." and it is forcing to disable the add-in and asking to check for if any update is available. It was working fine on 32-bit Excel version.
Thanks,
Ram

Hi Tammy,
Thanks for the response. It is working fine on 32-bit Office version (with OS 64-bit). I checked the compatibility (OSS 1466118 ) and it supports Microsoft 64-bit office version. Just wanted to see if anyone had successful installation.
Thanks,
Ram

SAP Server demo version for development?????

Hi,
Is there any version of SAP R/3 server for application development?
I develop my external application in Java in Eclipse environment (I use basically Material Management module), but I am using server from my university which is currently unavailable. I need access to server asap and therefore I wonder whether there is any version for development.
Any helpful answer will be properly rewarded.
BR,
Rafal

Hi,
Firstly, thanks for an answer. Points will be rewarded later on.
I understand all these legal issues. Please explain me what means "technology basis release"? I mean, what does it include? Basically I use only a few BAPIs and function modules related to MM module and that's all what I really need. I list them below:
CALO_INIT_API
CSAP_MAT_BOM_CREATE
BAPI_MATERIAL_BOM_GROUP_CREATE
CSAP_MAT_BOM_READ
BAPI_MATERIAL_EXISTENCECHECK
BAPI_MATERIAL_GETLIST
BAPI_MATERIAL_GET_DATAIL
BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA
Do you know whether they are available within so called "technology basis release"? Perhaps it is stupid question, but I'm still new in SAP.
I've got to mention that I sent an email describing my problem to SAP. They've answered that I'm supposed to visit http://sdn.sap.com and there I can get a demo version. I still can't find it (perhaps I'm blind , or more probably names in download section are not so self-evident).
Looking forward any response.

Rafal

Migration of SAP Business Objects BI Platform 4.1 from Windows(OS), SQL Server(DB) to AIX(OS) and Oracle(DB).

Dear All,
I have SAP Business Objects BI Platform 4.1 running on window servers and sql server database. We want to migrate this to AIX and oracle.
Can you please share what should be the best approach to carry on this migration?
Regards,
Asleh

Hi Mohammed,
Regarding your Query below is the suggestion:
Step I: Preparing for moving BOBJ application from Windows to AIX
There are some tasks that you need to perform:
To configure the existing deployment
Perform inventory and cleanup, to ensure that only the required content is moved.
Run the Repository Diagnostic Tool to detect any inconsistencies between the File Repository and the CMS repository. The upgrade management tool will not run successfully if there are inconsistencies between the File Repository and the CMS repository.
Identify any content that the upgrade management tool can't upgrade, along with the process required to upgrade that content. There is some content like Voyager Workspaces or Desktop Intelligence documents that require manual intervention before running the upgrade management tool.
Back up existing repositories, including the system database and the Input and Output File Repository Servers.
Back up custom web applications, HTML pages, and scripts in your existing deployment.
To configure the planned BI 4.x deployment
Setup and configure the Middleware and ODBC connections.
Ensure that your machines meet the deployment system's requirements, you can find information about the supported platforms in the Platform Availability Matrix (PAM) http://service.sap.com/support -> Help and Support -> SAP BusinessObjects Support -> Documentation -> Supported Platform s/PARs -> SAP BusinessObjects BI 4.x
Step II:
You can use database backup & FRS backup (Offline) in new environment (AIX) to deploy BOBJ 4.x Version
Take the help of DBA to move CMS & AUDIT database backup from SQL Server (Windows) to Oracle (AIX)
Test the Universe,reports, Check the rights
Step III:
If you are configured any SSO then make sure that same configuration is deployed in new environment (AIX).
Test the user SSO in new environment (AIX).
Or
You can also use Promotion manager to move the contenet from Windows (Business Objects Application) to UNIX (Business Objects Application)
Only prerequisite is Business Objects Application version should be same.
You can copy content only 50 Object at a time in One Job
FRS Offline backup is required.
Necessary files regarding custom web applications, HTML pages, and scripts in your existing deployment.
Please refer the below KBA for more details

SAP DEMO Database for SAP b1 Version for HANA

I was wondering if anyone can Help. I have installed the SBODEMO database on SAP B1 version for SAP Hana. V9.0 PL4 and then upgraded to PL9HF (901.00 to 902.001) the SBOCOMMON upgraded ok but SBODEMO database failed on the pre upgrade checks with "Parameter type error in stored procedure SBO_SP_TranasctionNotification and refers to Note 134078. I logged it with SAP and they have said uninstall the SBO DEMO database and then reinstall. Can anybody provide details on how to do this as there are no uninstaller just for the DEMO db as it was installed during the SAP B1 server installation.

Hi Nathan,
You can uninstall using uninstall.bin typically located in /opt/sap/SAPBusinessOne. If you deleted /opt/sap/SAPBusinessOne or the uninstall fails you can use the command shown below.
//Check for B1 rpm files
rpm -q -a | grep B1
//remove B1 rpm files
rpm -q -a | grep B1 | xargs rpm -e
After uninstalling I would recommend deleting the directory (rm -rf /opt/sap/SAPBusinessOne).
Best regards,
Duncan

Tutorials for starting with SAP Business Objects Explorer: Excel / Crystal

Hello,
we want to start with SAP Business Objects Explorer. I have been searching for tutorials for while without success.
Are there any tutorials or documentation that shows how to work with excel-files as data source or how to upload Crystal reports files (.rpt) to the Explorer?
Thanks in advance for helpful hints.

As far as I know the SAP BUsiness Explorer car retrieve data either from a universe or from the SAP BWA. So hat you should be looking for is information on how to set Excel files as data sources for universes.

Why Sub Folder for Hyper linked reports in SAP Business Objects

Dear Experts,
We are using SAP Business Objects 3.1, in my organization we already have reports builded for different requirements. Every report has hyperlink with another report. Developer had created separate folder for all these hyperlinked reports.Now, my question is, why he might have created separate folder for these hyperlink reports.
Ex:
Folder1
subfolder
{ report4
report5
report6}
report1
report2
report3
report4
report5
report6
report7
report8
Can you please help me to understand why he had created sub folder for the existing reports.
Thanks,
Kote

Kota,
It all depends on how your security model is set-up and the number of users/groups within your CMS and if any 3rd party security is also used like AD Auth.
The sort answer is, if security is defined properly at a Folder level and NOT at object level then it should NOT have any effect.

Ajay

Crystal Reports background processing for SAP Business One 8.8

Dear Partners,
I have an SDK program developed in SAP Business One SDK that works in 2007, it calls crystal reports externally and can be executed as a background task using the windows schedular or from the command prompt.
My problem is it does not work under SAP Business One SDK 2008 PL18 with SQL Server 2008, Visual Studio 2008.
I receive the following message after this line in my code,"oReport.PrintToPrinter(CopyNo, False, 0, 0)".
'CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.LogOnException: Logon failed.

My Question is what Crystal Reports libraries or other method should I be using ?
Crystal Reports 2008 for SAP Business One eg. 51038978.zip - downloaded from portal obviously dosn't contain the CrystalDecisions libraries.
Crystall Reports 2008 - cr2008_sp3_fullbuild, cr2008fp33.exe, cr2008fp33_mm, cr2008fp33_clickonce - also download from the portal, the cr2008_sp3_fullbuild does contain the crystal decisions libraries.
Finally other choices are crystal reports included with the visual studio 2008 and crystal reports full version direct from Business Objects.
I have tried different versions of crystal decision libraries- eg, 12.0110 or 12.02 but still no joy.
Also if I manage to get the report to fire what should the client be running eg, if they have the Crystal Reports 2008 for Business One do they also need to install the Crystal Reports Run time - cr2008fp33_clickonce.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi John
Since the SDK works in 2007 it will be using the OLD DB access method.
Change the Crystal report to use an OLE DB datasource rather than the SAP Business One data source.
Regards
Rob
