Business Objects XI 3.0/3.1- Connection with SAP ERP not with BW

Hi all members,
I have to confirm that can we connect "SAP Business Objects XI 3.0 or XI 3.1" with SAP ERP.
My client does not have SAP Business Warehouse. Neither they are interested to have SAP BW.
So, I have to confirm that can we connect "SAP Business Objects XI 3.0 or XI 3.1" with SAP ERP ?
Any other thing i have to go for?
Kindly any member guide me in bit detail.
Thanks and Best Regards,
Izhar

Hi,
currently it is not possible to build web intelligence reports fetching data directly from an SAP ERP system. The reason is that SAP ERP data sources are not supported in universes.
Regards,
Stratos
PS: An option is to deploy a BOBJ rapid mart. Please note that in this case you require the BOBJ Data services (ETL) tools. The idea behind the SAP ERP related rapid marts is that in the first step the data are extracted from your SAP ERP sources and load them into a relational database (using a predifined DWH scheme). Additionally the package provides you with universes (which rely on this predefined DWH scheme) and use the database as data sources, here your SAP ERP data were extracted to.

Connection from SAP ERP 6 to B1i2007

Hello,
the test-connection between B1i and SAP is working, but when trying to test the connection from SAP to B1i, SAP gives the error mesaage that "the program is not registered".
The B1i-System seems to be not registered in the SAP and it is only shown as "external client" (and not as registered server).
Another problem is that in B1i we have entered as programID-name "B1iRFC" but SAP shows "tomcat5" as TP-name.
I thought B1i would register automatically on the SAP with the name of the programm-id entered.
Do we have to change someting in the tomcat-server or where to find the problem?
Thank you,
Peter

Hello Eddy,
thank you for your answer, but in R/3 I define a RFC-connection with a registered server programm by using the programID out of the B1i-RFCP-configuration, right?
And when trying to make a test-connection, I got an error message that there is no registered program with this programID.
I thought that B1i have to be registered in SAP or in the SAP-Gateway with the name of this programID.
I think my problem is the registered server program in R/3. Where do I get this program and how to register in the R/3 gateway? Isn't the tomcat-server this program?
Best regards,
Peter

Crystal Reports when connecting to SAP ERP gives Logon Failed error

Hello Friends,
We are trying to implement the SAP Best Practices Crystal Reports and Xcleisus Dashboards for ERP. We are using BI 4.0 SP2, Crystal Reports 2011 SP2 and SAP ECC 6.0 FP 5.
We have done all configurations at the SAP end and successfully adpated a couple of Crystal Reports and they work fine.
My client machine crashed and I had to reinstall my Windows and all Client Tools. After the installation, when I tried to adapt a few more reports, I face the below problem:
After opeing the Crystal Report, when trying to Set the DataSource location, I select Create New Connection and select SAP Infosets. The SAP logon popup comes and I select the ECC system and enter the logon credentials for SAP ECC, I get an error message saying
Logon Failed.
Details: some square boxes.
The error doesnt really make any sense. Unfortunately, I am not able to test this scenario in any other machine as I am the only developer here. I am almost sure this is because of some configuration set up in my client machine,
Can some please help?
Thanks in advance!

Hello,
I recommend looking at a couple of things:
1) Do you have the latest Crystal transports installed with ECC? SP 2 has new transports. Check this subdirectory
Crystal Reports 2011\DATA_UNITS\CrystalReports\Collaterals\Add-Ons\SAP\Transports\unicode_compatible\cofiles
Use STMS to see if transports are installed
2) Are you using 3.1 ? Do you have the Integration Kit installed on ECC and client side?

Connecting a SAP-ERP-System to ADS-Server

Hi all,
I'm facing a problem while I'm trying to connect our ERP-Sandbox to an ADS-System by SSL (HTTPS).
I already connected it by HTTP successfully, so it pricipally should work. Also DEV, QAS and PRD-Systems are connected to the ADS by http and https and they are working fine.
The sandbox connection only works with http, not with https. I did the following steps to connect the sandbox to the ADS:
create User ADS_AGENT in ERP-Sanbox (with roles "SAP_BC_FPADS_ICF" and "SAP_BC_FP_ICF")
created Role ADSCALLERS in ERP-Sanbox and assigned it to User ADS_AGENT
created RFC-Connection "ADS_SSL" in SM59 with Type "G" (connectiontest is fine)
created connection/Destination "FP_ICF_DATA_SID_SSL" on ADS-Server. Authentication is basic (by username and password)
STRUST is also "green"
Usually the connection should work now.
But if I try to test the connection in SE38 by one of the following programs
FP_PDF_TEST_00
FP_CHECK_DESTINATION_SERVICE
FP_TEST_00
I alway get the same error:
SYSTEM ERROR: Fehler SOAP Framework: SOAP Runtime Exception: CSoapExceptionFault : SOAP fault found in SOAP document /Authentication failed. For details see log entry logID=[No log created, because category "/System/Security/WS" not active] in security log./<yq1:com.sap.engine.interfaces.webservices.runtime.ProtocolExceptionExt xmlns:yq1="http://sap-j2ee-engine/error">Authentication failed. For details see log entry logID=[No log created, because category "/System/Security/WS" not active] in security log.</yq1:com.sap.engine.interfaces.webservices.runtime.ProtocolExceptionExt>(100.102).
Although the trace/log on /System/Security/WS is active (I checked this twice at least and also restartet the ADS) we get no logs or entries here.
Also ICM-trace gives any error
It would be great if anyone has an idea. Thank you in advance.
Florian

Hi Florian,
Similar problem got resolved by changing the HTTPS to HTTP. Is that an option for you.
ADS with SOAP error
Also check the authorisation of ADS user

Connection from Web Intelligence over Universe to SAP ERP without SAP BW

Hi there,
is there a way to create a Universe which ic connected to SAP ERP (ECC 6.0) ? I want to use Web-Intelligence to create the Reports for my ERP-Data. But i don't want to make the way over SAP BW.
Otherwise i have to use Crystal because Crystal + SAP ERP Integration Kit can handle a connection to ERP. But then i have to waste a lot of time for the accuracy to a pixel which i dont need and i dont want...
Any Ideas ?!
Thanks
Sebastian
Edited by: smenzl on Mar 31, 2010 9:17 AM

Hi
you have 4 options:
1) Load your SAP ERP data into an SAP BW system and use OLAP universes to build WebI reports.
2) Use Rapid marts for SAP. This product comprises Data Integrator mappings that will allow to load your SAP ERP data into a predefined DWH based on a relational data source (like DB2, MS SQL Server or Oracle). It also includes a universe based on the predefined relational DWH that will allow you to build WebI reports.
3) Use the Data Federator with the SAP R/3 connector. Please note that the R/3 connector is NOT a product rather a prototype tand will be used at own risk (SAP BusinessObjects Web Intelligence Reporting for SAP ERP [original link is broken])
4) NOT RECOMMENDED: Try to access the tables directly in the underlying database. Please note that this may work for some but not all of the ERP data. In several case the data are stored encoded in the underlying tables and there is no way to extract the required information. Additionally the ERP security will not be leveraged into the WebI report.
Crystal reports is the currently the only BO reporting tool, which supports direct access to SAP ERP data sources.

Stratos

RFC Connect to SAP with JavaScript

Dear all,
is there a way to directly connect to SAP via RFC using JavaScript. Are there any tutorials or code snipplets?
Kind regards
Roman

Hi,
If you are running in a windows environment you can use COM functionality to connect to SAP. Here is some example code for you.
[code]
main()
function main()
     var txt;
     var Row;
     var Row2;
     var BAPI = new ActiveXObject( "SAP.Functions" );
     var Connection = BAPI.Connection;
     Connection.ApplicationServer = "xxx";
     Connection.Client = "xxx";
     Connection.SystemNumber = xxx;
     Connection.User = "xxx";
     Connection.Password = "xxx";
     Connection.logon(0,true);
     var Running = BAPI.Add("EW_TH_WPINFO");
     var Servers = BAPI.Add("TH_SERVER_LIST");
     var Tables = Servers.tables("LIST");
     var Dest = Running.exports("DESTINATION");
     Dest.value = "NONE";
     var CPU = Running.exports("WITH_CPU");
     CPU.value = "00";
     var List = Running.tables("WPLIST");
     Running.Call;
     Servers.Call;
     for (var enumerator = new Enumerator(Tables.Rows) ;
     !enumerator.atEnd(); enumerator.moveNext())
          Row = enumerator.item();
          Dest.value = Row("NAME");
          Running.Call;
          for (var enumerator2 = new Enumerator(List.Rows);
          !enumerator2.atEnd(); enumerator2.moveNext())
               Row2 = enumerator2.item();
               if (Row2("WP_REPORT").length > 0){
                    txt = txt + "\n" + Row2("WP_PID") + "\t" + Row2("WP_REPORT") + "\t" + Row2("WP_BNAME");
     WScript.echo(txt);
function jsTrim(strInput)
     var strResult;
     var objRegex = new RegExp("(^
s)|(
s$)");
     strResult = strInput.replace(objRegex, "");
     return(strResult);
[/code]
This code just gets a list of current users. Save the file as running.js and fill in the xxx parameters with what is relevent for your system.
You will need wdtfuncs.ocx and librfc32.dll registered on your machine.
Hope this helps.
PS in the widgets forum I have given you an example of how to connect to SAP via RFC within widgets.

Connecting SAP ERP and SAP XI via RFC (in cluster)

Hi all,
I have a strange problem with SAP ERP and SAP XI (production systems). Both systems are installed in cluster. I am trying to connect both systems via RFC, so I configurred TCP connection using SM59. But, when I try to test connection, I am always getting error "Program xxxx is not registered". When I register the program on the sender communication channel on different system (develop system - different machine), connection works fine. Configuration on both SAP XI production and development systems is identical. I just cannot understand, why production SAP ERP does not see registered program on production SAP XI. Has anybody experiences with this? Or any other ideas where should be the problem?

Are you configuring the RFC Sender adapter with load balancing?
what is the hostname you're using for ERP?
Is it the message server's?
Also, make sure the dispatcher is properly configured, sending the requisitions to the application servers.
Regards,
Henrique.

Connecting SAP E-Recruiting with SAP ERP HCM via PI 7.10

Hello guys,
i am currently working on connecting a SAP E-Recruiting and a SAP EPR 6.0 (HCM) via a SAP Netweaver PI 7.10 SP6 (Its a Proxy-to-Proxy Connection). For this i have created a more or less detailed How-to Wiki page. As i am not a PI/XI Expert at all - but i am always eager to learn I have some difficulties and i have hoped that you may help me out so i can complete the guide and so help others who also have some difficulties in setting up the scenario.
For what i have already done, please check out the Wiki page i have created.
One question i do have is, where can i monitore the send process.
I mean i am executing the proxy-call in the sender system (E-Recruiting) but nothing happens (no error message)
Also please take a look the RFC Destinations i have created for the Communication Channel. Not sure in which system i have to create those Destiantions and where they should point to.
Here is the Wiki (still working on layout issues)
https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/profile/HowtoConnectyourE-RecruitingwithyourHCMviaNetweaverPI+7.10
best regards,
Markus

Hi Li,
I am the Product Manager for SAP E-Recruiting. I'll try and give some direction.
SAP E-Recruiting uses no functionality from the existing SAP recruitment module, and has a new data model. For HR releases before ERP2004, SAP E-Recruiting can only be deployed on a separate instance to HR, and integrated using a combination of ALE (qualification catalogue, employees, organizational units, jobs, and positions) and RFC calls (for moving candidate to be hired into HR).
If you have ERP2004, then you can have E-Recruiting on the same instance as HR. There are advantages and disadvantages to this including, security, sizing, etc. We can discuss this if you consider this an option.
If you have E-Recruiting on a separate instance to ERP2004, then you can also display or use organizational data using supplied data extractors. These are great for easily pulling HR data. In the standard they are only used to display information based on the job/position (example: current position holder) but they could also be used in custom workflows, job postings, etc.
With ERP2005, employee qualifications will also be available in E-Recruiting, as well as the possibility of defaulting qualifications on the requisition, based upon the job or position.
I hope this helps. Please feel free to ask more questions.
Best wishes, Mark

Check Connection of Communication Arrangement for SAP ERP Financials Using IDoc Failed

Dear experts,
We are checking outbound connection from C4TE to ERP in Communication Arrangement for SAP ERP Financials Using IDoc Failed.
We get the attached error message:
Checking connection failed
Error accessing service; Service Ping ERROR: Forbidden (403)
What could be the reasons, in ERP side, through Tcode SMICM, we didn't see any log from C4TE side, and we cannot ping the ERP side successfully.
One more thing, in C4TE, we tried to set the connection to an SAP internal ERP system, and the connection was successful. But when relinked to the customer ERP system, connection failed.
Could it be firewalls reason?
Thanks!
Best regards,
Wendy

Hi Wendy,
Yes the assumption could be one reason as well for the error (403 forbidden), but there could be several other aspects also to get the 403 error, for better understanding the reason for the error, may I request you to create an incident send it to us.
Also please try once running the scenario in C4T and check if the relevant documents are being sent through Outbound Service or not.
Thanks & Regards,

CAL - Connect to an instance of SAP ERP Foundation Extension powered by SAP HANA

Hello,
I created and activated an instance in CAL today, the ERP on HANA trial.
Once this instance is activated ("green button"), the "connect" option appears but I'm not able to connect to it using http or SAP Gui.
I have no firewall, the error is:
This webpage is not available
Could you help me?
Thank you!

hi Pierre,
There could be multiple reasons for not being able to connect to the instance:
1. After click create instance, you need to wait for 45 minutes. Also the green botton comes,in the backend it is still working to complete the creation.
2. Once you have IP address, please try to connect to SAP GUI by manually add the server, instance number, etc into SAP GUI. See if it works. In addition, try to connect to BI launchpad via http:<IP address>:8080/BOE/BI.
3. Some user reported connection problem, we found out that certain AWS account may have problem with VPC layout used for this solution. check out the support AWS account:
• Click on EC2 Dashboard in left side navigation of the AWS Management Console • In upper right section of screen under Account Attributes section the Supported Platforms are listed http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/ec2-supported-platforms.html

Ok solved.
- I assure where is the saplogon.ini (in my case: %appdata%\SAP\Common\saplogon.ini)
- I open the saplogon.ini with notepad and set the UTF format and than save it replacing the original one if it was not in UTF format
- I go to : control panel>system>advanced>environment variables>system variables and I create a new one with name "SAPLOGON_INI_FILE" and path "C:\Users\....\AppData\Roaming\SAP\Common\saplogon.ini";
- Open SAP Crystal Reports 2013 (in my case) > VIEW > Preferred Viewing Locale > (here I set the language of the SAP System I am going to log on with crystal report, in my case was in english so I set English)
- (within SAP Crystal Reports 2013) > FILE > Log On or Off Server... > Create New Connection > SAP Table, Cluster, or Function > (now it shows me all the different SAP Systems that are also in the SAP GUI Logon, choose one, set the client-username-password and then finish)
Thank you,
Closed.
