InDate function with WEEK (Business Objects XI 3.1)

Hi,
I need some help about InDate function in Web Intelligence Java Panel (Business Objects XI 3.1).
How can I convert a year and a week in a date, let's day the first date of the week?
InDate("201052";"YYYYWW") doesn't work...Is it possibile to pass a year and a week as input parameters to this function?
Many thanks in advance

Oh, ok, that would be "ToDate()". I don't think it would work the way you are trying it. You may be able to plug in a date using an If statement with the Year() and the Week() functions, like:
If Substring([YYYYWWobject],1,4) = Year([a date object] and Substring([YYYYWWobject],5,2) = Week([same date object]) then [date object]
or something similar

Hi,
sub: Problem with Copied Business Object : SELFITEM
I want to use changed selfitem BOR for carbon copy functionality. For it, i copied the BOR : SELFITEM. it is giving error
In SWI2_DIAG it is showing like this.
Work item cannot be read
Work item 000000639770: Object method SWW_BI_EXECUTE_S cannot be executed
The problem is with COPYING The Business Object. Because , generally we extend BOR ,not copy. But i did copy.
Please help me regarding this.

The problem may not be in method. because simply we copied the BO:SELFITEM into ZSELF . And i want to test this for a mail at first , whether copied BOR is working or not.The mail is not triggering . it is saying that it is Error.
WF_BATCH error...
I can see error in Tx: SWI2_DIAG ,
this is Error :
Work item 000000639770: Object method SWW_BI_EXECUTE_S cannot be executed
Once it is rectified i can modify the method in BO:ZSELF.
Thank you in Advance..

Additional plug ins not displaying when working with ERBI Business Objects.

when working with ERBI Business Objects I am attempting to edit a report which requires Java. When I click on edit I get a bar at the top of the screen that say "Additional plugins are required to display all the media on this page". I click install missing plugins and receive a page that says no suitable plugins were found. I click finish and thus it still won't allow me to edit a report.
Please help

Please go to Java's website in this case to download Java.

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.
Best regards,
André

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.

Delete attachments linked with a business object

Hi All,
I have added some pdf attachments to a business object using Archivelink. I am making use of FM - ARCHIV_CREATE_TABLE.
This worked. Now we need to either add a retention period for these attachments or archive them or delete them after a certain period of time. I tried some ways till now.. but they havent worked
1. Setting a delete date in my FM ARCHIV_CREATE_TABLE :
CALL FUNCTION 'ARCHIV_CREATE_TABLE'
 EXPORTING
 ar_object = <archiveobj>
 DEL_DATE = '20100624'
 object_id = l_arc_doc
However when I look in OAAD, this delete date doesnt show up!
2. Using standard reports - RSBCS_REORG, RSSO_DELETE_PRIVATE and RSSODFRE. However my attachments are not even getting selected to be deleted.
3. I also tried with FM - archive_object_delete and ARCHIVOBJECT_DELETE. Here I am getting an error that states-
Error during import of physical document from cluster table SOFFCONT1.
Any ideas towards this ? All your answers are appreciated.
Thanks, Liz

All,
Minutes after I wrote up this question, I tweaked a way to delete the PDF using FM -ARCHIVOBJECT_DELETE. The archive doc id to be given here is from the 'Link' table one would have configured in transaction OAC3 (part of Archivelink config).
I would still like to know if there is a cleaner way to delete the attachments from a business object.
Also is there is way to delete the 'link' from transaction OAAD.
Your input is appreciated!
Thanks, Liz

BI Accelerator used in combination with SAP Business Objects Explorer

Hi ,
If you use SAP Netweaver BWA and SAP Business Objects Explorer Blade, do you only get the full benefit with using SAP BO Explorer, or will the same queries ran in BEx 7 Anaylser also benefit from the in memory OLAP processing?
I'm guessing that the SAP BOE Blade will only benefit SAP BOE.
It would be great if the current BWA had the ability to in-memory the OLAP part of the processing, as then it might be worth the hassle of getting it installed.
Thanks,
Jamie

Hi
May be the note : 1384526, could give you an insight.

SAP PCM 7.0 Connectivity with SAP Business Objects

Hi All
We are trying to integrate SAP PCM 7.0 FP5 with Business Objects. The prime purpose is to fetch PCM data into Xcelsius dashboard and WebI reports via BO Universe.
We are sruggling to understand the plugins required to do this.Since other SAP documentation states that SAP BO Connectivity pack is required which is a part of SAP BusinessObjects Profitability and Cost Management 7.5 Support Package 06
But , we understand that SAP BO PCM75 Support pkg06 cannot be installed on SAP PCM 7.0.
Also, Please kindly help me in understanding if SAP PCM 7.0 connectivity with BOXIR3 (without using BW NW layer) is possible or it needs to be upgraded to SAP PCM 7.5
Thanks

Hello Siva,
I am thinking that you may need to deploy FTP adapter in PI to get this process work fine but not sure.
Let's see what other experts suggest.

Issue with Citrix Business Objects full client

Hi ,
I have issue with my database pasword being expired. I ran a recovery and it works fine for me.
Since we are using the citirx installation the bomain.key is available on the citrix server which is copied across the user profile when they are login into citrix server via the logon script.
I still could not find whether the log on script is correct or not can any one of you let me know what I can use to copy the bomain.key using citrix usrlogon.cmd script.
Regards,
Ramesh

Please post this query to the Business Objects Enterprise Administration forum:
BI Platform
That forum is monitored by qualified technicians and you will get a faster response there. Also, all BOE queries remain in one place and thus can be easily searched in one place.
Thank you for your understanding,
Ludek

Problem with DimensionBuilder (Business Objects Financial Consolidation)

Description of Problem or Question:
Hi all,
i try to create a new Dimension as described in the help by switching into "Definition Mode" of the Dimensionbuilder. In "data sources" I select the "amounts" folder and Select File -> New -> Dimension. Unfortunatelly the Dimension entry is greyed so that i can not select it. It is also not possible to load data into the existing dimensions or reference tables.
Any ideas how to solve that problem?
Product\Version\Service Pack\Fixpack (if applicable):
SAP Business Objects Financial Consolidation 7.5 Built 7.5.0.1021
Thanks a ot in advance!

The problem is solved. If you have the same problem, make sure that your database is initialized as a top site. By default the database is initialied as a child site which means that customizing is not possible.

Problems with a Business Object when using data RAW.

Hi,
I've created a Z bapi with parameter tables as
FILE_BIN like SDOKCNTBIN
The structure SDOKCNTBIN has one RAW field.
When I go to SWO1 and implement a new Bapi, the following error occurs:
"Field SDOKCNTBIN -LINE is too large to be included in container"
Does anyone knows why when I declare an structure with a field RAW, gives that error?
Thanks in advance!

Does this occur when using Immediate Mode?
Here's a blurb from my ADF Toy Store paper about Batch Mode and immediate mode.

Business Objects and SAP BI Integrated Planning

Hi,
Not too sure if this is in the correct forum...but I have question.
Is there a way to use the integrated planning functionality with a Business Objects Front end tool? As I understand BEx will at some stage will not be supported...so I guess there must be a tool. If so which one?
Thanks,
Leo

Hi Leo,
The Business Objects << SAP Solutions Integration Kit >> enables Web Intelligence, Yoyager, and Crystal reporting on the following SAP sources:
1. SAP BW (Infoset, BW Query, BW MDX and ODS)
2. SAP R3 / mySAP ERP (transparent tables, pool tables, cluster tables, views, ABAP functions and ABAP data clusters)
& Also web portal integration to:
3. SAP Enterprise Portal (SAP's Knowledge Management - Repository Framework Interface, iViews etc)
So.. if you can consolidate your planning data into a cube datatarget, you might be in with a chance!
I hope this helps.
Regards,
Henry

Send mail with business object link

Hi,
can anyone please tell me, how can i send a mail with an business object as an attachement. when i clik on attachment, it should execute the method of business object which will display the document.
it will be a great help,if any one can send the code.
Thanks,
naresh.

Hi,
You need classes CA_SAPUSER_BCS and CL_CAM_ADDRESS_BCS .
CLASS ca_sapuser_bcs DEFINITION LOAD.
CLASS cl_cam_address_bcs DEFINITION LOAD.
You require the following local variables:
DATA: send_request TYPE REF TO cl_bcs.
DATA: document TYPE REF TO cl_document_bcs.
DATA: sender TYPE REF TO cl_sapuser_bcs.
DATA: recipient TYPE REF TO if_recipient_bcs.
DATA: exception_info TYPE REF TO if_os_exception_info,
bcs_exception type ref to cx_bcs.
DATA: num_rows type i.
DATA: textlength type SO_OBJ_LEN.
First create a mail request:
send_request = cl_bcs=>create_persistent( ).
Create the mail sender:
Get sender object
sender = cl_sapuser_bcs=>create( sy-uname ).
Add sender
CALL METHOD send_request->set_sender
EXPORTING i_sender = sender.
You can define your mail address in this Web Application Server in the user maintenance.
The mail can be sent to one or more addresses:
Create recipient
data: c_address TYPE ADR6-SMTP_ADDR.
move mail_address to c_address.
recipient = cl_cam_address_bcs=>create_internet_address(
c_address ).
Add recipient with its respective attributes to send request
CALL METHOD send_request->add_recipient
EXPORTING
i_recipient = recipient
i_express = ' '
i_copy = ' '
i_blind_copy = ' '.
You receive the mail address as a string and you have to convert in into the required data type.
The mail is sent to one address only without any additional attributes.
You can now send the mail and write everything to the database.
Send document
CALL METHOD send_request->send( ).
COMMIT WORK.
You still have not taken any precautions against error situations.
You can take care of this by embedding the following code in a TRY CATCH block:
try.
... Now the code comes after the creation of send_request up to the COMMIT WORK:
catch cx_bcs into bcs_exception.
if messages is not initial.
messages->add_message( condition = 'mail'
message =
'Error occurred while sending the mail' )."#EC NOTEXT
endif.
exit
endtry.
Reward if it is helpful.

Rajesh

Hi,
What are business objects and as a functional consultant what I can do with business objects?
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_46c/helpdata/en/59/ae4484488f11d189490000e829fbbd/frameset.htm
Business objects are real world entities modeled as objects in an information system.
Business objects encapsulate both data structures and the functions applied to the data, but hide their full complexity from other objects. This encapsulation of data and functions makes it easier to modify program components, because you can program with the relevant entities without having to know all the implementation details. You can also reuse existing functions.
WHat and where business objects can be useful ?
Client programs access business objects by reading their attributes, or by calling the methods that make up the objects interface:
Attributes
Attributes describe the data stored in an object through a set of properties. They provide direct read access to the data structures of objects, but client programs cannot change them from outside.
Methods
Methods provide a way to encapsulate the data structures of business objects, and to process them. When accessing an object, the client program calls a method with parameters and gets back return parameters.
Interface
The interface is the set of methods associated with a business object, and determines how an object interacts with the outside world.
The client program defines the object types to be used and, at runtime, creates object instances of those object types.
SAP business objects are managed in R/3's Business Object Repository (BOR).

Naveen.

Single Workflow to trigger from multiple business objects

Can a single workflow be triggered for multiple business objects. We already have a workflow which triggers when there is error in the document. Can we use same workflow for other objects (Opportunity, lead etc..) or do we have to create separate workflows for each objects?

Yes you check.Check the business object by passing test data in the function module.
check with import and export parameters and check with the business object with the transaction
after testing of business object check the status at transaction swel for event trace.
