Hi,
I need some help in integrating Webcenter 11g with OAM 10g.
Objective:
=========
My customer is using Webcenter 11.1.1.2.0 and they are primarily using Discussions and wiki .I would like to integrate OAM with Webcenter for providing SSO.
Steps Followed:
============
I have followed the steps mentioned in the section 23.7.1 and 23.7.1.7 in the doc
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E15523_01/webcenter.1111/e12405/wcadm_security.htm#BGBCEHGE
and also referred metalink note ID 829122.1
Scenario after integrating with OAM:
===========================
1.Accessed the dicussions url through OHS proxy http://<ohs_host>:<ohs_proxy>/owc_discussions
2.Click on Login button
3.OAM Login page appears
4.Provide credentials for orcladmin (admin user of OAM OID LDAP)

Integrating OBIP with GRC for Reporting

Hello Experts
I am very new to the GRC suite. I wanted to know if it is possible to use OBIP for developing custom reports for AACG to meet specific audit requirements. Are there any OOTB report templates that can be loaded in OBIP for eGRC?
Regards
Deepali B

1.Technically you should be able to use OBIP to develop custom reports for AACG although the effort required might be significant, although some integration is provided between EGRC 8.6.4+ and OBIP OOTB.
2.No there are no OOTB report templates that can be loaded in OBIP for eGRC.

Xml publisher of R12 with apex for reporting

Hi gurus,
can i use the inbult xml publisher engin of R12 to configure Apex reports.
Please Help
Regards
Vishal

NO, the license for that version of BI Publisher does NOT allow you to use it with external tools.... You would be better off getting a new licensed version for your APEX install...

Integrating WebDynpro ABAP applications with UWL for workflow in Portal

Dear
We want to integrate an abap webdynpro application as task in the workflow with UWL.
More information was found in /people/ginger.gatling/blog/2005/12/14/create-new-uis-for-existing-workflow-tasks-with-abap-web-dynpro-and-universal-worklist
But no answer on the following issue:
We use the transaction SWFVISU to prepare standard setting for our task. This defines how a task is executed, once you select the task subject line on the worklist.
Task                           TS91700001

But we want to start the abap webdynpro application with a dynamic parameter: period 07.2010 or 08.2010 or MM.YYYY. This parameter is a container element of the task, filled when the task is created. Also other parameters are available in the abap webdynpro application.

Can we set the dynamic parameter list DYNPARAM from the task
or should we read the container in our abap webdynpro application described in http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/WDABAP/IntegratingWebDynproABAPapplicationswithUWLforworkflowin+Portal?

Error with FOP for Report Printing in Apex 3.2.1

We are trying to use FOP deployed onto GlassFish Community but after setting up as described in the applicaton express guide to allow report printing; we are getting the following error
'package oracle.xml.parser.v2' does not exist
We are running GlassFish on Debian 5.0 (Lenny)
Any help appericated :)

Here is what I did to get it to work.
1. Copy xmlparserv2.jar from my ORACLE_HOME/oc4j/lib directory to my glassfish domains/domain1/applications/fop/WEB-INF/lib directory.
2. Added the following two lines to the glassfish domains/domain1/fop/apex_fop.jsp before the driver.run() line
out.clear();
out = pageContext.pushBody();The second part of solution I found on another forum page.

Integrating Canon Raw Converter with Aperture (for G9)

This is a follow up question to an email I posted last night on Apertures incompatibility with Canon G9 Raw Format.
DOes anyone or has anyone tried to integrate the Canon Raw Converter that came with the G9 in with Aperture? I thought of it this morning. My thought is to identify the Canon Raw converter as the external editor. Changes can be made in Canon RAW then saved. There would be the additional picture created in Aperture that I can modify. Granted the saved format would need to be a jpeg or tiff file format.
Any thoughts? Has anyone tried this?
Also, what is a high quality format the file can be saved once changes are made in Canon RAW?
Thanks

Using 'Open in External Editor' in Aperture tells Aperture to convert the RAW file to either a TIFF or PSD and send that to the external editor, not the RAW file. So if a camera is unsupported by Aperture you can't use the command...

Best Strategy for Integrating Crystal/Business Objects with OpenACS Environment

Post Author: devashanti
CA Forum: Deployment
I'm working for a client that uses AOL server and OpenACS for their web services/applications. I need suggestions on the best strategy to integrate a reporting solution using Business Objects XI. Ideally I'd like to send an API call from our web application's GUI to the Crystal API with report parameter values to pass into specific reports called via the API - I can get it down to one integer value being passed - or if this is not possible a way to seamlessly, from the end user perspective, move into a reporting module. We are using an Oracle backend database. I'm experienced with creating stored procedures and packages for reporting purposes.
Although I have many years of experience integrating the Crystal active X controls into n-tier client server applications, the past few years I have had little opportunity to work with Business Objects and the newer versions of Crystal or web based solutions with Crystal Reports. I signed up to try out crystalreports.com, but I doubt my client will find this solution acceptable for security reasons as the reports are for an online invoicing system we are developing. However we can set up a reports server in-house if necessary, so it gives me some testing ground.
Can anyone provide suggestions for a doable strategy?

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

Crystal Report Viewer Credential Prompt for Report with Dynamic Parameters

The .NET Crystal Report Viewer is prompting for database credentials when launching a report containing dynamic parameters. This only occurs for reports created with SAP Crystal Reports 2011 designer. Reports created with Crystal Reports XI designer (where dynamic parameters were first introduced) work correctly.
The credential prompt window contains the following fields:
- Server Name: <server name> (disabled)
- Database Name: <database name> (disabled)
- User Name: <empty> (enabled)
- Password: <empty> (enabled)
- Use Single Signon Key: false (disabled)
The values in the prompt window which are disabled are the database connection values used during the design of the report in the SAP Crystal Reports 2011 designer.
Expected Result:
- No prompt for database credentials.
- Values read from the database should be populated in a drop down for the dynamic parameters.
Environment:
- Visual Studio 2010 (C#)
- Windows 7 Enterprise
- SAP Crystal Reports runtime engine for .NET Framework 4
- SAP Crystal Reports, version for Visual Studio 2010
- SAP Crystal Reports 2011
The database connection is being set to use a DSN. It must be a DSN as the calling application is only aware of the DSN/Username/Password values. These values are being passed to the Crystal Report Viewer contained in a Windows form.
The database connection for the report is being set as follows:
foreach (InternalConnectionInfo internalConnectionInfo in this.report.DataSourceConnections)
    // Must set the UseDSNProperties flag to True before setting the database connection otherwise the connection does not work
    if (internalConnectionInfo.LogonProperties.ContainsKey("UseDSNProperties"))
        internalConnectionInfo.LogonProperties.Set("UseDSNProperties", true);
    // Supposed to set the database connection for all objects in the report (ie. main report, tables, sub reports)
    internalConnectionInfo.SetConnection(this.DSN, string.Empty, this.LoginName, this.Password);
The SetConnection method's signature is as follows:
   SetConnection(string server, string database, string name, string password)
As you can see from the code snippet above I am setting the DSN name as the server parameter, blank for the database parameter (a database connection using DSN should only require DSN name/Username/Password) and the database username and password respectively.
Is this a SAP bug?
Is this the correct way of setting the database connection to use a DSN?
Is there some other properties that need to be set somewhere else in the report through code?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the pointer to the database connection code generator. After taking a look at the output from the tool I was able to finally get the dynamic parameters to load and populate properly without prompting for credentials. I needed to tweak the outputted code a bit to match my requirements of using a DSN only connection.
Instead of updating the database connection properties contained within the Report.Database.Tables collection from the CrystalReports.Engine namespace, I changed it to replace the database connection properties in the Report.ReportClientDocument.DatabaseController.Database.Tables collection from the CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.DataDefModel namespace. For one reason or another, using the RAS namespace solved the problem.
Below is the updated code with the change made:
using RAPTable = CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.DataDefModel.Table;
foreach (InternalConnectionInfo internalConnectionInfo in this.report.DataSourceConnections)
    // Must set the UseDSNProperties flag to True before setting the database connection
    if (internalConnectionInfo.LogonProperties.ContainsKey("UseDSNProperties"))
        internalConnectionInfo.LogonProperties.Set("UseDSNProperties", true);
    // Sets the database connection for all objects in the report (ie. main report, tables, sub reports)
    internalConnectionInfo.SetConnection(this.DSN, string.Empty, this.LoginName, this.Password);
// The attributes for the QE_LogonProperties which is part of the main property bag
PropertyBag innerPropertyBag = new PropertyBag();
innerPropertyBag.Add("DSN", this.DSN);
innerPropertyBag.Add("UserID", this.LoginName);
innerPropertyBag.Add("Password", this.Password);
innerPropertyBag.Add("UseDSNProperties", "true");
// The attributes collection of the tables ConnectionInfo object
PropertyBag mainPropertyBag = new PropertyBag();
mainPropertyBag.Add("Database DLL", "crdb_ado.dll");
mainPropertyBag.Add("QE_DatabaseType", "OLE DB (ADO)");
mainPropertyBag.Add("QE_LogonProperties", innerPropertyBag);
// Pass the database properties to a connection info object
ConnectionInfo connectionInfo = new ConnectionInfo();
connectionInfo.Attributes = mainPropertyBag;
connectionInfo.Kind = CrConnectionInfoKindEnum.crConnectionInfoKindCRQE;
connectionInfo.UserName = this.LoginName;
connectionInfo.Password = this.Password;
// Replace the database connection properties of each table in the report
foreach (RAPTable oldTable in this.report.ReportClientDocument.DatabaseController.Database.Tables)
    RAPTable table = new RAPTable();
    table.ConnectionInfo = connectionInfo;
    table.Name = oldTable.Name;
    table.QualifiedName = oldTable.QualifiedName;
    table.Alias = oldTable.Alias;
    this.report.ReportClientDocument.DatabaseController.SetTableLocation(oldTable, table);
this.report.VerifyDatabase();
Thanks again Ludek for the help.

Expense Types with Input Tax (GST) - mapping to GL Account for reporting

We are in the process of implementing Expenses for countries like Australia & New Zealand, which have GST.
Expense Types were created and different Tax Codes were defaulted to the expense types, as per the requirement. Some Expense Types have no GST while some do have a Tax Code to 10% Input Tax
The issue is, I cannot find a config step to map the Expense Types to Tax GL accounts so that the Finance office in Australia / New Zealand can submit their claims end of the year by pulling up a report from this GL. I can do the regular mapping of Expense Types to specific GLs. I can even settle & post the expenses to FI and reimburse the employees but there is no way I can record the receipts which have taxes on them into the tax GLs for reporting purposes.
Any inputs on how this can be mapped or addressed is much appreciated. We went live with a bunch of countries but, the GST quotient is holding us off from going ahead with AU and NZ.
Here's an example - Expense Type is Dinner. This is mapped to GL 123456. When an employee submits an Expense with the Dinner, it is settled and posted to FI against the GL 123456. The reimbursement is done. But, the Dinner expense receipt has 10% GST which the Finance team wants to submit and claim the tax breaks end of the year. We want all the expenses with 10% tax be mapped to GL 800900. But this is only for reporting reasons. No postings done against the GL 800900.
So, we are looking to map all the Expense Types with Input Tax 10% to GL 800900 and all Expense Types with Input Tax 15% to GL 700600
Here's some of the Tax Config that was done ...
1). SPRO -> Financial Accounting -> Travel Management -> Travel Expenses -> Master Data -> Control Parameters for Travel Expenses -> Define Global Settings ... Input Tax is set to "Input Tax per Travel Expense Type"
2). SPRO -> Financial Accounting -> Travel Management -> Travel Expenses -> Master Data -> Control Parameters for Travel Expenses -> Travel Expense Types -> Create Travel Expense Types for Individual Receipts ... in the Expense Type, "Tax Code" field is set the either 0% or 10% Tax Codes

Issue is resolved ... I misunderstood the logic. Tax Code is linked to a GL account. And when I run PRRW, I see the relevant Tax amount in against the trip

Creating a range with Substitution Variables for Report Script

Is it possible to create a range with substituion varables for use in a report script. For example instead of listing "Jan" "Feb" "Mar" "Apr" in the report script can I use a sub varaible like Jan:Apr that will list them all out?

while I have not had luck with ranges in report scripts, others have. You could have a substitution variable the is "Jun" "Jul " "Aug" or whatever you want the members to be. and it will replace jusr fine

How the data is fetched from the cube for reporting - with and without BIA

hi all,
I need to understand the below scenario:(as to how the data is fetched from the cube for reporting)
I have a query, on a multiprovider connected to cubes say A and B. A is on BIA index, B is not. There are no aggregates created on both the cubes.
CASE 1: I have taken RSRT stats with BIA on, in aggregation layer it says
Basic InfoProvider     *****Table type      ***** Viewed at      ***** Records, Selected     *****Records, Transported
Cube A     ***** blank ***** 0.624305      ***** 8,087,502      ***** 2,011
Cube B     ***** E ***** 42.002653 ***** 1,669,126      ***** 6
Cube B     ***** F ***** 98.696442 ***** 2,426,006 ***** 6
CASE 2:I have taken the RSRT stats, disabling the BIA index, in aggregation layer it says:
Basic InfoProvider     *****Table Type     *****Viewed at     *****Records, Selected     *****Records, Transported
Cube B     *****E     *****46.620825     ****1,669,126****     6
Cube B     *****F     ****106.148337****     2,426,030*****     6
Cube A     *****E     *****61.939073     *****3,794,113     *****3,499
Cube A     *****F     ****90.721171****     4,293,420     *****5,584
now my question is why is here a huge difference in the number of records transported for cube A when compared to case 1. The input criteria for both the cases are the same and the result output is matching. There is no change in the number of records selected for cube A in both cases.It is 8,087,502 in both cases.
Can someone pls clarify on this difference in records being selected.

Hi,
yes, Vitaliy could be guess right. Please check if FEMS compression is enabled (note 1308274).
What you can do to get more details about the selection is to activate the execurtion plan SQL/BWA queries in data manager. You can also activate the trace functions for BWA in RSRT. So you need to know how both queries select its data.

Jens

SAP Jam Integration with Cloud For Customer error

My example in the document deals with User ID as key_identifier.
ie., we need a unique key which is common to both servers so that we can identify accounts. This is done through assertion attribute exchange.
For eg, if I have an account with userID vatsav in C4C, then I must have an account with same userID in JAM (or vice versa) provided I set UserID for "Account Name Origin" in Step 10.
Doing this way, I am telling JAM that I am using UserID as an assertion attribute which identifies both my accounts in C4c and JAM without any problem. When you login into C4C using vatsav as UserID, it automatically searches feeds for same userID in JAM and displays them in Mashup.
It's a big concept actually. Implementation's already done by SAP.
Hope, I am clear.
