Documentation on XI / R3 / BW communication - urgent
Hi ,
We currently starting a new BW implementation and our customer want to use XI as integration platform between SAP R/3 and BW.
We find documentation on it on sdn, but we want to know if we can reuse standard extractor without modification in this configuration or if we must copy it in order to set them compatible with XI ( XML file ) .
Also, if somebody as already make this solution we will be aware of his conclusion ( advantage, inconvenient and so on) .
Thanks in advance.

What ports need to be open on Fw for Waas Communication--Urgent
Hi All,
This product is new to need your help in configuring this. I am explaining the architecture below:-
We have a requirement to use WAVE-594-K9 Software Release 5.3.1 and in our Manila location and it will not talk to Waas central Manager in our client location instead client has installed one same model Wave-594 in PHX.
So now client has said it will only be used for caching contents and not for optimizing, they have some video training on web which will be passed through this wave and for making them highly/fastly available to agents they want to use this.
We have installed one Wave in Manila in application-accelerator mode and using PBR to redirect the desired traffic via Wave. As per our client Manila Wave will talk to PHX wave and PHX wave will get registered to Waas Manager in client network.
We have firewall between PHX wave & Manila wave, please let me know do we need to opened tcp/udp ports on FW for opening the communication between these two waves?
and what else i need to configure on Manila wave?
This is very urgent quick reply will be highly appreciated!!
Thanks!!
BhishamThanks for the quick reply Kanwal!!
I checked with my team in PHX and we have Juniper FW in between these two Wave's, so what i understand from the links which you have shared.
In Manila Wave i need to configure that in Directed Mode and udp port 4050 needs to be opened bi-directionally on Juniper FW between IPs configured on wave devices.
In Manila we have 10.111.x.189 (Virtual-Blade IP) & 10.111.x.190 IPs & in PHX we 63.149.23.x & 63.149.23.x (VB) so from both IPs we required to open udp 4050 bi-directionally? Want to be sure before raising any request :-)
In PHX wave i am not sure whether we can configure that in directed mode and if it’s not then also it will work by opening port 4050 on FW Right?
In last our client was saying that Manila Wave will only be used as cache engine (VB is configured as content-engine) and it will download contents from PHX Wave (which is registered to CM at client side), what does it mean and do i need to do any special config on wave to achieve this?
I am very new to this device and lot of research on net confused me a lot, please don’t mind!!
Will wait for your reply then only i will raise request with FWteam.
Thanks,

Applet Servlet communication (urgent)
Hi,
I m using Netscape Enterrpise server 4.0 as my web server. I am passing data from applet to servlet using BufferedInputStream(). But it takes about 30 seconds to send the data. If i don't use it, the data is not being read by the servlet. Is there any alternative to this ? Please help.
ThanksIt's only the primary key field that i am passing to the servlet from applet .. For this particular process, it takes 30 seconds + other things like loading the applet, etc. so in all, it takes about 1 minute just to fetch the data from servlet which is not reasonable. We have monitored the whole process. We found that other things like query, etc. does not take much time, but BufferedInputStream() itself takes 30 seconds. Regarding communication line, it is quite fast. We are a corporate sector, so no doubt about the speed of the communication line ...
Thanks for help. -

Objects communication (urgent)
Hie,
I'm making a project and i'd like to know how to do so that objects (in java) communicate between them independently of the user's intervention ?
Thanks
carolinei'd like to know how some objects that have no relationship
between them can communicate by sending events to each other.... hmmm... I'm going to go out on limb here and say: THEY DON'T!
If they are sending events to each other then have a relationship via listeners. -

BOXI 3.1 SP2 and java sdk documentation and api refs
I have a question regarding the status of the java api references for BOE, REPENG, RAS:
Yesterday we upgraded the 3.1 system from build 12.1.0882 to 12.2.099.BOE_Titan_SP_REF, which is XI 3.1 SP2.
When we look at SDK documentation in the Business Objects Community Network (former Diamond) we see that the api refs are still from July 2008.
Can you tell if we can get a more current api ref documentation for BO Enterprise, Report Engine and Report Application Server SDK anywhere else?
Thanks,
BerndThe only references and documenation is [here|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc/sdklibrary]
Typically new methods and such are not introduced in a current product version so most likely nothing has changed in the SDK. It does sometimes happen and when it does new documenation is usually released.

SAP HR implementation ( MOST MOST URGENT )
Hi Friends ,
Just i wanted to know the following answers ?please kindly send me full - detail script .
1. Project planning
2. Documentation of Functional Specifications and communication to ABAP Programmers
2. Blueprints (requirement analysis and process design)
3. Realization (configuration, QA testing and production support hand-over)
4. Go-live (data conversion, production system build and final QA testing)
5. Production Support.
Thanks and i appreciate your time .
Regards- Zubair ( Australia )Business Blueprint
Once a company decides to buy SAP, a consulting company is being hired for the implementation. The consulting company analyze the business process of the company and prepare a blueprint.
Sometimes the business process is reengineered (BPR) to accommodate SAP's functionalities.
The second step is installation of SAP and setting up three clients namely development client, test client and production clients.
In the development client the SAP functional and development group start configuring the SAP based on the blueprint. Once it is completely configured, it is being transported to test client for testing using real time data. Once testing is successful, the configuration is being transported to production client to be used by real-time users.
So this process makes SAP more reliable and robust in production.
Preparation Before Implementing SAP
SAP R/3 implementation is generally a key project for any organization. It is necessary to do preparation before implementation.
Many organizations speak of "transferring technology." But what does that mean? Transfer technology involves transfer of the system which includes the
hardware
software
people
processes
information
organization
structure
synchronization
function and
behavior.
It becomes obvious that the transfer of any part of the system, without the rest of it, does not transfer technology. In our context, the software SAP/3 is being changed. In most of the cases the hardware needs to be changed. The people need training to operate SAP system. But unfortunately, many organizations fail to understand that they need to change their processes. SAP is a package & it contains many best practices suitable to almost each industry. The designer (configuring the system) must design the system keeping the objective of the business objective in mind. The user should be prepared to change its processes and ensure that the objective of the processes is met. This should be done without or minimum distortion of the processes designed by SAP. This is a big challenge to the designer as well as user. It should noted that the user representative involved in the system design should be empowered for low level BPR decisions.
Also the information stored in the system will be in different form than the legacy system. The user must be prepared & trained for the changed.
The major challenge is behavioral change. Implementation of SAP R/3 system changes relationship of different persons, it gives/denies access to information which was not available/available to the person, it changes processes and control functions. This all gives behavioral issues. To get best out of SAP, these issues must be addressed before implementation.
SAP R/3 re-engineers many processes and the fear of downsizing and loosing job hinders free acceptance of SAP in many organizations. This fear hinders free communication between the end-users and SAP system designer. The communication is a vital element in successful implementation of SAP R/3. This issue of 'Fear Of Downsizing' must be addressed before starting implementation project.
ASAP Implementation Methodology
Any enterprise application software has to cover a broad spectrum of functionality, yet to be configured enough to meet specific requirements. SAP achieves this by ASAP methodology & R/3 Business Engineer.
AcceleratedSAP (ASAP) is SAPs standard implementation methodology. It contains the Roadmap, a step-by step guide that incorporates experience from many years of implementing SAP. Quality checks are incorporated at end of each phase to ensure quality of deliverables and monitor critical success factors.
ASAP is delivered as a PC based package, so that an implementation project can begin prior to having an SAP R/3 system installed
ASAP Tools
ASAP Roadmap
ASAP and Business Engineer have compatibility with many third party modeling tools and packages like MS Excel etc
Creating the Business Blueprint for Implementation Projects
Purpose
To create a Business Blueprint during the implementation of mySAP.com solution to document the business processes in an enterprise, and to decide which processes should realize in SAP system.
The use of Business Blueprint in the Solution Manager during the realization phase (configuration and testing) should continue. It needs to reuse the project structure created in the Business Blueprint phase, to configure and generate test plans. One can also display, change and enhance project documentation created during the Business Blueprint phase, during configuration.
Prerequisites
You want to implement a mySAP.com solution. You have completed the Project Preparation: you have defined an implementation project and a system landscape in the project administration of the SAP Solution Manager.
Process Flow
...Create a Blueprint structure, using predefined substructures.
Check the Business Blueprint structure, and the business scenarios, business processes and process steps it contains.
Decide which business scenarios, business processes and process steps you want to include in the Business Blueprint. You can enhance the processes and process steps, or adjust the names of individual processes to suit your company requirements.
Create the project documentation and save it in the Business Blueprint.
Assign transactions to process steps. This specifies which transactions in the system correspond to the process steps in your enterprise.
Print the Business Blueprint document.
When the Business Blueprint is complete, you can start to set up the development system landscape.
Result
You have created your Business Blueprint and set up your development system landscape. You can reuse the Business Blueprint and the project structure to configure and test your business processes
Business Blueprint
Use
This function documents the business processes in your company that you want to implement in the system. In a Business Blueprint for Projects, you create a project structure in which relevant business scenarios, business processes and process steps are organized in a hierarchical structure. You can also create project documentation and assign it to individual scenarios, processes or process steps. You then assign transactions to each process step, to specify how your business processes should run in your SAP Systems.
The Business Blueprint is a detailed description of your business processes and system requirements. You can print it out.
Integration
You can continue to use the project documentation and the project structure that you create during the Business Blueprint, in the configuration and test organization phases.
When you configure your business processes, the system displays the Business Blueprint project structure. You can use the Business Blueprint project structure as a point of reference during configuration.
You can also display and edit the project documentation from the Business Blueprint phase, during configuration.
You base all test plans that you create during test organization, on the Business Blueprint project structure. The transactions that you assign to process steps in the Business Blueprint are put in test plans during test plan generation, and run as function tests to test the transactions.
Prerequisites
You have created a project of type implementation, template, or upgrade, in the project administration.

2. Check the Business Blueprint structure, and the business scenarios, business processes and process steps it contains.
3. Decide which business scenarios, business processes and process steps you want to include in the Business Blueprint. You can enhance the processes and process steps, or adjust the names of individual processes to suit your company requirements.
4. Create project documentation to save in the Business Blueprint, in the Project Documentation tab.
5. Assign transactions to process steps in the Transactions tab. This specifies which transactions in the system correspond to the process steps in your enterprise.
6. Print the Business Blueprint document.
7. When the Business Blueprint is complete, you can start to set up the development system landscape.
Result
You have specified a Business Blueprint. You can reuse the Business Blueprint and the project structure to configure and test your business processes.
Business Blueprint
Definition
A Business Blueprint documents the business process requirements of a company. In collaborative business processes, several companies are involved.
Use
The Business Blueprint gives you a general idea of how your business processes could be mapped in one or more SAP Systems. The Business Blueprint documents in detail the scope of business scenarios, business processes, process steps, and the requirements of a mySAP.com solution implementation.
Structure
A Business Blueprint compises the following structure elements in a hierarchy:
Organizational units
Master data
Business scenarios
Business processes
Process steps
You assign content, for example, project documentation, Business Configuration Sets, or transactions to individual structure elements, in the SAP Solution Manager.
You can also create structure elements for organizational units and master data, below a business scenario. You only use these structure elements if the organizational units and master data are only relevant to the business process above them in the structure.

Cannot start Visual Studio 2013 Community edition
Windows 7 on a 64-bit PC...
Downloaded the installer vs_community.exe for Visual Studio 2013 with Update4 yesterday and ran it.
It took about 1 hour and 20 minutes. At the end the installer reported the web deployment function
could not be found/installed and that I could locate and install it myself later. It then told me to
restart the PC, which I did, but the Community edition had not been added to the start menu.
There are other Visual Studio versions on this PC:
Visual C# 2010 Express, Visual Express 2012, Visual Express 2013 and Visual Studio 2013 Ultimate
trial version. They can all be started from the menu and do not interfere with each other and they
installed without problems. There are 4 weeks evaluation time left for VS 2013 Ultimate and I want to
make use of that. VS Express can be shown the door if any of these might be blocking the
Community version.
I am puzzled by one more VS directory named Microsoft Visual Studio 2012 in Program Files(x86). This
contains many items added yesterday by the Community install including a directory named Community
with with two files licencse.htm and ThirdPartyNotices.txt. It also contains files and directories
added in November last year (ImportProjects, Preemptive Solutions...(don't remember what or if I was installing)) and some added in February this year when I installed VS Ultimate 2013 trial. So the VS 2012 directory contains a mix of items placed there by
VS 2013 installers.
Questions:
1. Could this mixed use be the cause of the Community version not being on the Start menu?
2. what can I do to fix this without losing the VS Ultimate trial?
3. Can Community version coexist with other VS versions?
I was installing by running vs_community.exe.
When I let the mouse hover over this file name information about the file pops up:
File Description: Microsoft Visual Studio 2013 Community with Update4
File version: 12.0.31101.0

I don't know, but I would guess this file installs the Community version.
I did not notice that the Community version will not run on the same computer as other VS 2013 versions. Is this in the documentation? And will the Community version be blocked by VS Express
versions too?
Now, as far as I understand to make the Community version work I will need to uninstall the VS Ultimate 2013 trial first. Will that remove the Ultimate files in the MS VS12.0 directory in Program Files (X86)? and will uninstalling Community remove its contribution?
I mentioned there are other files too in MS VS12.0, like SDK, Silverlight, WDExpress and Web. I don't remember installing any other program that might have put them there. Do I have to empty or remove MS VS12.0 before installing the community version? Then,
if there are some left-overs can I just delete MS VS12.0 manually? -
Is anyone in charge of developing Arch Linux documentation? From an interview that I came across on the net, I gather that there is. If so, could I ask what the programme is to improve documentation and what the target dates are?
If there isn't anyone in charge, are there people who would be interested in working on documentation, maybe within the Arch community, but maybe outside on an independent site?redge wrote:
I get the sense that there are a lot of people involved in this distribution who like to pretend that deficiencies are strengths. I also think that the distribution is undermanned. Normally, if a project is undermanned, the idea is to bring people on-board. Trashing people who explore the possibility of getting on-board, and who in the process ask some hard questions, given that getting on-board involves a commitment of time and effort, is not necessarily a clever strategy.
Anyway, having read through this thread, the question in my case is now academic. There is no way that I am going to dedicate 8-10 hours a week to documentation is if people think that spare documentation is a badge of honour. Besides, it is so much easier to write the occasional post.
This is all fair enough; if you don't feel that your efforts would be useful, then by all means don't "waste" time on it (I say this from the point of view that I think you should feel fulfilled by your contributions to this kind of community, not "I didn't like what you said, so I don't want your help" kind of way ) . I think a lot of the feelings expressed in this thread are summed up by the last line of your post, but in a more positive way. That is to say, the Arch Forums are fantastic, and people are willing to answer questions that come up here. As a result, they are maybe unwilling to spend time adding stuff to the wiki that may be too general to cover specific questions anyway. I do think there are a lot of projects and common questions that can be summed up in informative wiki pages (and a lot of things *are* covered there). Perhaps naturally, the wikipages that *do* get written are ones that involve projects people are personally involved or interested in (I put in a wmii wiki page at one point when I got into ruby-wmii, but even that has fallen behind wmii releases at this point).
There have obviously been documentation efforts, and plenty of people that stop by to say "Hey, I'd like to help". However, I think the stopping point for a lot of people is either a) What needs documenting and b) Gee, I don't know anything about the stuff that needs documenting! I actually think the best wikipages are born of arch forum threads; when a discussion has a lot of great tidbits, somebody usually chimes in and says "Hey, somebody make a wikipage", or better yet, "Hey, I already made a wikipage, check it out and add stuff if you want". This works, because obviously a lot of people reading the threads that end up creating the wikipages *know* about the subject. Also, people are immediately alerted in the thread that there's a new page, and may say "Hey, I can add to that", as opposed to a system where people are just going through adding pages and hoping other people notice and add stuff too.
So, in summary, I guess I'd say that documentation is great, but due to the nature of Arch, our efforts work the best when the ball is already rolling in the forums. Which really is the best way for a "smaller" distro like Arch, IMO. Maybe to you this still seems like a "deficiency" that Arch users think is a strength; it seems to me to be more of a natural product of a really active user community (where instead of there being a group of people dictating what documentation is needed and such, those things that come up in community end up being codified in the wiki).
Personally, for me, I think a good documentation effort would be to keep your eye on long or very active threads; if they look like they have juicy info in them, condense it into a wikipage and announce it in the thread. Of course, that's just one Archer's opinion, and not necessarily of one that knows what he's talking about . I do agree that there are steps that could be taken to make tackling documentation easier (and I am aware that Dusty has the "Wiki volunteers wanted" thread for this) for people that "want to lend a hand", and I'm certainly not saying the efforts that have gone on so far have been wasted. I just like the idea of the really active community in the forums being leveraged to help the "static" documentation in the wiki. See a thread that indicates the install guide is lacking info is confusing? Make the wiki edit! See a thread with great new info? Start a new wiki page! See a thread born of BAD INFORMATION in the wiki? DEFINITELY update the wikipage! Embrace the wikiness of the documentation; worry less about "who maintains this page", and more about "what are the actual issues users are having, and can I change something right now to help?". Coming from this angle really reduces the feeling of being overwhelmed when loading up the wiki to edit it with no particular agenda in mind... rather, you have particular pages in mind, and you know they will be immediately useful.
Cripes, this was a long post. Sorry! Hopefully it will encourage people to contribute, even if it's just a small edit on a single page, without them worrying about becoming documentation maintainers. You don't have to be an expert at everything or anything, but being a part of a community is contributing what you can when you can. Oh, and yeah, this post probably looks funny coming out of the mouth of an "Occasional poster"; I'm actually on the forums daily, looking for spots where I can answer a question, and do so when I can.. my lack of posts is simply an indication of my not knowing enough .
Oh, and as to the response to Dusty's response... I feel like we see these kind of responses a lot on the forums, and I kind of wish people wouldn't take such umbrage at these comments. These comments are a result of people *knowing* the community. It doesn't mean that they think your idea is stupid, it just means that they're telling you what has been true in the past, and why certain things maybe don't work out. It doesn't mean you shouldn't feel like you can contribute how you want; it's open, go for it. Get the ball rolling; the community may embrace it gladly. If it didn't, well, you contributed out of love of the community, and that will certainly still be appreciated. -
Service Integration for Internal Communication
I created a Service Integration for Internal Communication to send Opportunity data to my custom BO in a separate deployment unit. I've gone through the documentation and all the steps, but I don't understand how to get the A2A to actually send the data. Do I have to call it in a script?
I'd love to see some more documentation on A2A scenarios for communication to separate deployment units, because I need help.Hi,
can you post how you got it ? -
How to create the data for custom objects in pList
Hi,
I am new in developing on iPhone and I don't know much about this area. I would like to ask a question. I couldn't find the answer on this question in apple documentation but I hope Internet community will help me.
Lets say I have a class called classA. The classA has 2 public properties (or fields):
*int customIndex*;
and
NSString *customTitle;
My view controller class showMeSomething has a property NSArray which holds the objects of type classA. I would like to load the array from the plist resource file. How do I edit the resource file with initial values or how do I know the format of the plist which can be loaded from using mainBundle for my array of custom objects?
Thanks!Here's some info on working with plists:
http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/PropertyLists/Introduc tion/chapter1_section1.html
They can be edited with any text editor. Xcode provides a graphical editor for them - make sure to use the .plist extension so Xcode will recognize it.
