Doubts to install BO for SAP BI users

Hi All!
Do you know how can I make available/usable BO components for my SAP BI users or where I can download the media library (from BO site or SAP site) to install?
We are planning to do a POC here and we will install a new instance with SAP BI 7.0 SR3. We already have BW 3.5 and, if this POC goes well, it could be that our users want to migrate to BI 7.
Does anyone could help? I also read others threads about BO but I didn´t find any link or question with this information ...
Thanks a lot!!
Daniela

Hi Daniela,
Today the Business Objects frontend tools can connect to SAP NetWeaver BI (3.5. and 7.0) via the ODBO connectivity. You do not have to wait for the SAP NetWeaver BI 7.1 release.
With the ODBO interface you must define an ODBO query via BEx and then use the query as the access point for Business Object tools. They Business Object tools create their queries on the data provided by the ODBO enabled query.
In the future we will reduce this need for the intermediary query and provide native support for query building on SAP NetWeaver BI. One example of this is the future Pioneer tool.
With regard to the need to install BOE to get access to SAP NetWeaver BI data, it really depends on the Business Objects tools that you wish to use. For Xcelsius you do need BOE as it uses the QaaWS functionality but I do not believe you need it for Crystal Reports (I could be wrong here so someone correct me if I'm wrong).
I do not know when the Business Object tools will be available for download on SDN. I do know that you can download trial versions of some of the Business Objects tools from the Business Object website (www.businessobjects.com).
Cheers,
Mike.

  • Create an install CD for SAP GUI Windows Patch Level 4

    Hello,
    I would like to create an Install CD for SAP GUI 720 for Windows with Patch Level 4
    so that my user just install once.
    From the market place, I can download Patch Level 0 distribution.
    It is a Zip file that I can extract and use to generate an Install CD.
    But it is LVL 0 only,
    Then, I can download the Patch 4 executable file.
    Unfortunately, the only way I can go to patch 4 is to execute this new program on my installed GUI.
    Is there a way to generate, or even better download, an install  CD that would contains the PL4?
    so that the user just does one install and does not have to run the patch executable after the install.
    If yes, how can I do it?
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    > No my idea was to generate a CD with PL 4 now.
    You can do that using an installation server, you can create a single .EXE file and burn in to a CD for the user.
    > We test it and stand to it for a long time.
    We tried to do that in the last 15 years we're doing SAP, unfortunately there come always situations, where you don't get around installing patches on PCs. This is especially true for BW, where the tools used depend (more or less) to the patchlevel of the backend system.  However,
    > Would someone know where I could get the release date of these compilation CD fro 720 Windows GUI?
    The patch dates/weeks are listed in "Note 1053737 - Expected release dates for SAP GUI for Windows & ITS Patches", however, they are estimates.
    I would assume that the next compilation will be released with Business Suite 7i2010 (or whatever name it is actually). Those compilation CDs are neverless always at least one patch behind the actual one.

  • How can I install attachments for SAP notes with zip-files ???

    How can I install attachments for SAP notes with zip-files ???

    Can you elaborate on your question? How exactly is your question related to SAP NetWeaver Portal: Application Integration? If you are really asking how to install attachments contained in SAP notes, there is no automatic/general way and you should ask your question in the Software Support and Maintenance space to begin with. What SAP note(s) are you looking at installing?

  • Installing Software for Groups of User Accounts

    What is the best way to install software such as Photoshop plug-ins so you only have to enter the serial number once but allow that apply to all users in a group?
    I created 3 accounts - 2 admin, 1 standard - and would like to be able to install software for all of them at one time.
    Thanks for any feedback.

    Yeah, and that design of OSX has been around a decade now. It is just plain selfishness on the part of the developers to make it as hard as possible for multiple users on one computer to use software. I guess they think it helps prevent piracy, but it only seems to alienate customers and promote their own selfishness. Last time I checked I thought people are given licenses based on one computer at a time. 500 people cannot use one computer at a time, so why does it matter if other users have access to the same software. The point is it is all so pointless.

  • I've added a new user to my computer and there doesn't seem to be any firefox connected to it. Do I have to install firefox for the new user also?

    I went to set up a separate user for my child and when I was finished there was no Firefox icon . All it showed was Explorer. Do I have to download Firefox for every user? Please help?

    Sounds that you didn't create a Firefox desktop icon for each user in the All Users group (C:\Users\All Users\Desktop), but only for the current user. You can either create a desktop shortcut to start Firefox on the desktop of your child to the "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" program or create that shortcut for all users in the "C:\Users\All Users\Desktop" folder.
    If you also need a Start menu entry that place a shortcut here:
    "C:\Users\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Mozilla Firefox"

  • Installing Oracle for SAP on existing non-SAP RDBMS

    The title says it all -
    I haven't been able to find any real docs supporting or not supporting the practice of using an existing Oracle 10.2 RDBMS to add an SAP DB.  I know it's technically possible, but since the SAP Oracle installer is configured to build a new RDBMS for each SAP instance/DB installation, I'm wondering if it can be altered and piggy back on an existing one.
    The reason is I have a customer who would like to do this so they can continue to use an existing DEV Oracle server without adding the stress of an indepedent set of oracle binaries running, and consuming resources.

    > But aside from that - let's assume the release and patch levels from their own DBs are equal to the requirements from SAP.  What other considerations/issues/supportabilty problems might be encountered?
    If it's not a production system you could certainly go for it.
    I think though, that it's MUCH LESS maintenance work using a second ORACLE_HOME than to try to fiddle with the huge amount of single/interim patches SAP requires. If you just check
    Note 871096 - Oracle 10.2.0: Patches/patch collections for Oracle 10.2.0.2 (59 interim patches)
    Note 1137346 - Oracle 10.2.0: Patches/patch collections for Oracle 10.2.0.4 (39 interim patches)
    I can imagine you having a pretty hard time aligning that with the other non-SAP databases. On top may come incompatibilities with OPatch (SAP uses a "special OPatch") where you may need to switch between the official one and the "SAP-one" depending on which patch you install.
    The only additional resources the new ORACLE_HOME uses is harddisk space (some GB) - which shouldn't be more expensive than the work you'll need to invest to keep the system and working for both.
    Technically it can be done - certainly.

  • How to install DBM for SAP NW4 testdrive SR1 on linux

    Hello all
    I Have just succesfully installed a SAP NetWeaver 04 TESTDRIVE SR1 on linux with MaxDB 7.5.
    Now I would like to have a DBM installed. With my old testdrive (WAS 6.20) for windows it was very well documented how to install and use the DBM, but it seems they forgot the DBM when they made the TESTDRIVE DVD.
    How can I install a DBM for my linux testdrive ?
    Best regards

    Hello,
    on Linux the only GUI Tool for administrate the database
    is the WEBDBM. It is a Webservice which runs in the

  • Strategy for SAP Emergency User Management

    Dear All,
    currently I am working in the authorizations team of an SAP ECC 6.0 implementation.
    As we had no Emergency Users in the past, we want to introduce them at least in the new system.
    I would appreciate any experiences regarding Emergency Users. Especially regarding the strategy: how many Emergency Users to set  up? To whom to assign (who should be aligible, only SAP BASIS Team or also to the functional team). Approval processes for Emergency User requests.
    I would appreciate your feedback and an open discussion on this questions.
    Thanks in advance and Best Regards,
    Mehmet

    Best Practice for Authorisations ?
    you can use SUIM T-code for all the requirements you mentioned. coming to Emergency user, make a sheet and protect it auto password which would let you know how many times modified .
    should be controlled by Basis person.
    regards

  • Multiple install issues for first time user of 10gRelease2

    Despite doc which said 10g Release 2's certification with Windows XP Professional (> SP 1), clusterware install fails with OUI-1-8001 (Error - needs XP ver 5.0 or 5.2). My XP Prof Ver 5.1.2600 apparrently isn't compatable. Error msg suggests upgrading Service Pack.
    Tried to install Personal Edition, but never saw the oppty to selection it after downloading individual zip files (clinet, gateways, clusterware) into separate folders and then running setup.exe's in each folder. Don't know if I'm running Personal Edition.
    This is my first time attempt to install Oracle dB. Appears that my installation of client and gateways went ok, but I'm not doing something right to start SQLPLUS or my clusterware issue is causing a problem.
    When starting SQLPLUS, entered by username (email), passwd, not sure what to enter for host string. Leaving blank, a timeout occured. Do I need a connect identifier? SQLPLUS hangs if I try to then click File.

SQLPLUS hangs if I try to then click File.Am curious - which version of Oracle DB 10gR2 did you download? Did you take 10.2.0.1 or did you grab the 10.2.0.3 for Vista or 10.2.090.4 for Win 2008? The questions sound suspiciously like the latter.
    If you have the right one for WIndows, the Personal Edition selection shows up on the very first screen - you select whether you want Enterprise Edition, Standard Edition (which also includes the SE1 variant) and Personal Edition. No selection implies wrong download.
    Under normal circumstances, you ONLY install the database CD. That gives you pretty much all you need for learning, including the SQLPlus. Then if you want more - such as the sample data, because you deliberately did not include it at database install, or the Apache front end - you get the Companion CD and install it after the fact. The Client CD is used for those computers that do not have the database CD. Gateways are used on the database much later, when you want to connect to DB2 or SQL Server and the like. And the clusterware is when you are really advanced ands want to get a high availability cluster operational.
    Edited by: Hans Forbrich on Oct 4, 2009 8:17 AM
    On rereading your question, it sounds like you installed everything instead of just the database CD. You need ONLY the Database download for learning.

  • This is not an easy process = Add these lines to user.js: user_pref("capability.policy.policynam For example: Could you make or send a link that will install this for the average user as I would prefer not to use Explorer.

    All I would like is to be able to use the Cut and paste when I am making changes to my Web site . I have loked at the instuctions to do this but it is proviung to hard to apply. Is there an easier way or do you have an update that I can use to make Cut and paste work when web editing,
