Issue regarding Cognos 82 Business Package iviews on SAP NW 7.0 Portal

Hello,
We have recently deployed Cognos business package (com.cognos.cognos82.epa) in NW 7.0 and followed the documentation provided by Cognos (i.e. Installing and Configuring Cognos8 on a SAP Portal). When testing the Cognos iView, we are getting the following error message:
=======================================================
Unable to process the request.
CPS-CCM-1204 The method "initCookie" of the Markup interface failed.
A more detailed description of the error that occurred can be found in the log.
=======================================================
Has anyone run into this error before?
Another Question: Do we have to define a Cognos System in Portal Landscape? (This was not mentioned in the documentation!)
Any help on this would be very much appreciated and also I will provide points.  Please help me on this
With Regards,
Sudheer

Hello Sudheer,
Get Cognos to provide you the documentation on "Enabling Single Signon with Cognos8..."
In addition to importing the Cognos business package, you need to setup a SSO between Cognos and Portal.  so, your Cognos support should be able to provide you documentation on setting up SSO.
hope this helps.
regards,
Harman

  • Load balancing for Business Package iviews

    Hello Gurus,
       we have installed SRM Business packages on our Portal system and accessing the SRM which has 2 application servers.How can we make the iviews to access any one of the application server as the link to ITS in iviews is static.What is the easiest and best approach to get them load balanced using Business Package iviews.
    Regards!

    Dear G,
    As I see your back-end system has 2 app servers... to cofigure the portal iViews to use both app servers you need to define that in the portal system object that is defined to connect to the backend system... You should look if the system object you use for connecting to srm is of the type: "SAP_R3_LoadBalancing"
    See also: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/1f/bddf3d48b05d5ae10000000a11405a/frameset.htm
    In addition because you are talking about ITS you could configure a WebDispatcher in front of your Backend SRM system...
    Good Luck,

  • Customising Business Package iView by deleting fields/column

    Hi,
    I wanted to know the tools/procedure require to customise existing business package iViews (in a MSS implementation).
    If we want to say delete/add a particular field or column in an existing iView, what tools do we need? Visual Composer or Web Dynpro? Is there a step-by-step guide available for this?
    Your input is greatly appreciated!
    Thanks,
    Aniruddh

    HI Aniruddh
    If you want to change the iview, upload the par file of the iview to NDS, save it in another name.
    Then make the necessary changes, and again upload to the portal.
    Then make an iview based on the new par file.
    But I don't think SAP provides the source code along with the business package. So making the changes to the par file will not be a straight forward method. You will have to decompile the class files and make changes in them.
    It is a tedious activity.
    Regards
    Rajeev.

  • Documentation on Business Package iViews w/ associated tcodes

    Is there one source of documentation for all business packages that exists where we can look up if a business package iView is associated directly to a tcode in a back-end system (i.e. ECC, SRM, etc.)?

    The only source of documentation I can think of is the Package documentation link available under SDN > Portal > Portal Content Portfolio.
    Hope this helps.

    It will solve ur problem.

  • Print functionality in MDM Standard Business Packages iViews

    Hi Experts,
    I have successfully connected MDM repository and EP and created system objects and system aliases and suitable user mapping. Now I am having a page with 5 iViews - Text Search, PickList search, Hierarchy search, Resultset and ItemDetails.
    The requirement is to have a print button in the page which when, clicked will generate a user friendly (preferrably a PDF) page and will allow the user to take a print out of the resulting PDF page generated.
    I have gone through the following links
    [Re: Print button;
    To be more specific, I am still not sure how to add a custom button and action to a standard iView - the deployed portal content is not a Web Dynpro application =, although I am not very sure what exactly is it.
    Regards.
    Rohit

    Hi vara,
    Question 1: How to add default search criteria to Search iViews in
    MDM Portal Business Package
    Ans. You can make use of Named Searches. Open the Data Manager Create a entry in the Named Search table, select the desired Supplier as a search criteria and save the search in the Named Search created and assign this Named Search to the user in MDM Console. Now use this user while performing User Mapping step. This will limit the Records to the search criteria of the named search and whenever you create new records satisfying the search criteria, it will get added to named search automatically.
    For 2 and 3
    I tried this in MDM 5.5 SP02, but no luck

  • CRM Business Package 5.0.0 SP1 in Netweaver Portal 7.3?

    Hi,
    at the moment we have a Netweaver Portal 7.0 with CRM Business Package 5.0.0 SP1.
    We are planning to upgrade our Portal to Version 7.3 but are not able to upgrade CRM to 7.0 at the moment, so we have to stay a while at Version 5.0.
    Could anybody tell me if it is possible to use our current Business Package also in 7.3?
    As i see there are no further SPs for this Business Package, so i only can use the one i already have!?
    Many thanks for your answers
    Regards

  • Regarding SAP PSS Business package import into NW 2004s Portal

    Hi All,
        I am trying to import the SAP PSS business package into the SAP NW 2004s portal. I initially tried the SAP PSS 3.0 package. I copied this downloaded business package zip file into the

  • Setting up iViews from Cognos business Pagkabe

    Hi,
    Has anyone successfully set up the iView "Cognos Viewer" from the Cognos Business Package.
    I need the iView to display a specific Cognos Report in ReportNet. So far I have not been able to locate any documentation on how to set the properties to do so.
    The iView "Cognos Search" and "Cognos Navigator" work fine.
    Thank you in advance,

  • Change iviews installed from a business package

    Hi experts,
    I'm working on EP 2004s and I would like to know if there is a way to change iviews installed in the portal from a business package using Visual Composer. Can I copy them into my own created package in VC?
    Thanks
    Panos

    Hi,
    Usually Business Package iviews - especially the older ones - aren't based on Visual composer models but rather older IView technology. Therefore, it should be impossible to change them in VC.
    I've heard that SAP may be considering releasing business packages (XSS?) as VC models but never heard any confirmation regrading this. Probbaly based on the support-related questions. I once blogged on this <a href="/people/community.user/blog/2007/01/30/enterprise-soa-explorations-fragments.

  • Business packages for SAP Portal 7.3

    Hi,
    as far as I know at the moment there are no business packages existing for SAP Portal 7.3. Is this correct? If yes, how are the different business packages scheduled?
    Bye,
    Timo

    Hi Timo,
    with EHP5 you may choose between WD JAVA and WD ABAP.
    Just check
    http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_06/helpdata/en/48/a2d0be5444690ae1000000
    0a42189c/frameset.htm
    As soon as you have decided to use one of the versions you may use the Maintenance optimizer to determine the pacakge.
    The release of the portal is not so important for the business packages. The NW release is just important if you run the JAVA applications on this machine as well. For NW 7.3 this means
    you will need the 633 and 630 packages.
