Native Reports of SAP B1
Hello Experts,
I am a beginner in SAP Business One.
Could you, please, tell me how can I see the sql statements of some native reports of SAP B1 like "Inventory Reports"?, sometimes I must have the source tables of some reports for having a better orientation to create custom reports.
Thanks.
Hi, I am new to B1 too, but since you are newer than me ...
There are no way of getting raw SQL of a given report per se. However, you might have a chance to figure this piece of information out by running an SQL trace while running the report.
You may achieve this through your Studio Management Console, and by Googling on the topic a bit.
From within B1 GUI, you might want to display system information (..\View\SystemInformation\.) and then move your mouse over some fields shown on your report (displayed on the screen of course). Then have a peep at the lower left hand side of the screen, the system will tell you both Table and Column name.
Same is true while moving your mouse over any data entry screen found in B1. If for a given field you don't get a Table/Field name, then that is because it may be a calculated field, sometimes refereed too as a "Variable".
Enjoy !

Performance Issue with Webi report uses SAP BI Query as the data source
Hello.
I have created a Webi ad-hoc report which connects to a SAP BI query through BO OLAP universe.
The layout of Webi is the exactly the same as the BI query. There are filters in the Webi to restrict the number of data extraction, but even with data result of 5000 rows, it took about 30 seconds.
If I execute the BI query with the same filter restriction, it tooks less than 10 seconds.
It seems that large percentage of time is consumed at the MDX part.
Is there any tuning method that could speed up the process time of MDX?
Thank you.
Justine
Edited by: Justine Liu on Mar 18, 2009 6:59 AMHi,
please take a look here:
[https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1142664] (Look under related notes)
It includes references to various performance improvements of the MDX interface. From what I saw there it is advisable to upgrade your SAP BI (7.0) up to at least Support Package 21 (you are currently on SP 15).
This may also be interesting for you: There is a new Fix Pack 1.4 coming out for BOBJ XI 3.1. Combined with the related SAP Enh.Pack (not sure about the version of this one) should also improve WebI performance. This fix pack is not yet officially released though but it should not take look.
I recommend that you try the upgrade to Support Package 21 first.
BTW it is also advisable to take a look in the results of your MDX query (e.g using the MDXTEST transaction). You should make sure that your query is indeed restricted as expected. Sometimes the results you see in SAP native reporting tools (e.g. BEx Analyzer) differ from those returned from the MDX component, depending on the way variables/restrictions where defined in the query designer. It is all about making sure that there is no apples/oranges comparison here.

Crystal Reports from SAP BW without BOE
I have read different documents and documentation about how you can use SAP BW objects with Crystal Reports.
One of that documents was "BusinessObjects Integration Kit for SAP - Crystal Reports 2008" from Ingo Hilgefort.
On Page 38 of that document, when saving the report, you have the option "Automatically Publish to Enterprise".
In the example it is not selected.
According with that:
Can I assume that I can have Crystal Report Connected to SAP BW without using BOE?
Even If I do not use, do I have to install BOE?
If I have the version Crystal Reports Enterprise 2008, do I have to use or install BOE?
Clarification will be appreciated on this topic.
Thanks in advance,
JaimeHi Ingo,
Thanks for your answer.
May I extendend the question to Xcelsius?
If you have installed NetWeaver EHP1 and SP2 for Xcelsius, my understanding is that you will a "Native access of SAP BusinessObjects Xcelsius via BICS without BusinessObjects Enterprise Platform XI 3.1" (According with document "Update to NetWeaver EhP1 SAp Netweaver 7.01")
Do you still need BOE to share the solution (as per Crystal reports)?
Thanks in advance,

We found that AP aging report from SAP is not tie with Balance in Balance sheet. Please advise how to find the report which match with our requirement.
Concept of the AP aging report is to age outstanding AP as at the end of month (Open item date). We found that A/P aging report which we currently use is cannot match to balance per G/L. (Please see detail in attached file). And the balance in AP aging report is always changes if we retrieve data on difference timing.
Additionally, this report is not show the reconciliation account, please advise whether it is possible to show summary line which sum by reconciliation account.
Please advise if you have another SAP transaction or any advise on this.
kindly suggestHi,
For ageing report please go to fbl3n and go for change layout there is a option for ageing and posting period choose those two and subtotal it according to posting then you will get period wise meand month wise ageing report for vendor.

Performance issue of BI Reports in SAP Enterprise portal -in SAPNW2004s
Dear friends,
We are integrating BI Reports in SAP Enterprise Portal 7.0 ( SAP NW- 2004s).The reports are running properly .But the issue here is reports are taking long time to open and leading it to performance effect.
Reports in BEX( Bi side) working lilttle better than EP platform.
And Even BI team is looking for ways to improve the performance.
Could you please share your ideas to implement in portal side to increase the performance.
Thanks and Regards
Ratnakar ReddyHello Mr. Reddy,
There are two possibilities for slow performance in BW reports, so we need to look into wether its slow in the BW system or at the frontend.
If the problem resides in the BW system then we should be able to trace the reports
and you can go for a SAP EW or GV sessin and SAP will provide recommendations.
If the problem resides at the frontend
Update the frontend servers to the latest frontend release.
Recommended Frontend Release 700
Recommended Frontend Patch 18
Update the frontend servers to the lates SAP GUI release as soon as possible.
Minimum Recommended SAP GUI Release 6.40
Your frontend PCs should fulfill the following requirements:
Each frontend PC should have 500 MHz and 128 MB main memory.
Because of a limit in the addressable memory, Windows 95 is not supported as Frontend OS for 3.X BW Systems. Please refer to SAP Notes 161993, 321973 and 366626 for details.
Please also check SAP Note 147519 "Maintenance strategy/ deadlines 'SAPGUI'".
If you still require any assistance from SAP support then raise a message under component ( probably BW-BEX-ET-WEB).
Provide your input, if you have any.
Thank you,

Performance issue of BI reports in SAP Enterprise portal
Dear Friends,
We have integrated BI reports with SAP Enterprise portal 7.0.Reports are running properly But the issue is reports are taking more time to dispsaly its content and leading it to performance effect.
In Bex ( BI side) reports performance is little better than SAP EP platform. BI Team also looking for ways to improve performance at BI side.
Could you please share your valuable ideas to improve the performance at SAP EP side also ..
Thanks and Regards
Ratnakar ReddyHi ratnakar,
The first step is to identify which component is causing the performance problem. Run your report in the portal but try appending the string &PROFILING=X in the end of the URL. This will generate BI statistics which you can use to see which component (Java stack, ABAP stack, Database) is causing the performance issue.
Hope this helps. -
How to add/create additional page in Crystal Report Layout SAP B1
Hi,
I wanna ask about How to add/create additional page in Crystal Report Layout SAP B1 ?
I want when user print Purchase Order then on last page also print some page like Penalty Clause etc.
Pls help me to find the solution.
Br,
Thomas MarsetyoHi,
In your report footer, set it to create a new page before it is printed (In 'Section Expert', select the Report Footer -> 'Paging' tab -> Check 'New Page Before' checkbox). Throw your Terms & Conditions into the Report Footer section.
If you already have a Report Footer that you want to keep, just split the footer into two sections (Right-click the Report Footer section -> 'Insert Section Below') and follow the same procedure for the newly created section.

Dear All,
I am facing an issue that is if i run a report from SAP B1 using Crystal reports AddOn, it misses out some data.
Few Initial pages and a last page appears in the report. But when i run the same report using Crystal reports Designer it shows the actual number of pages. I have tested the above discussed issue on the server & workstation machines.Dear All,
I would like to explain the above posted problem in detail. I need your generous help, I am facing an issue that is for Crystal Reports which are based on 'Financial Templates' data is missing out. For Example, If i run the report using 'Crystal Reports Designer' it is showing the whole Financial Template based on 5 pages, but if I try to run it from 'SAP Business One'
using 'Crystal Reports AddOn' it is missing out the data e.g. it is showing Page 1 and then Page 4 & 5.
Page No. 2 & 3 is missed out. For your information it was running fine from the past two months now I am
facing issues in running it. Rest of the reports are running fine.
I have tried reinstalling the Crystal Reports Runtime and Crystal Reports AddOn for SAP B1 on
Client machines, but the problem is not resolved yet.

Issue running a report from SAP Business One
I have an issue running a particular report from SAP Business One. I am using Crystal Reports Add-On, all of the reports are working fine except one. When accessing the last page of the report or any page from inside the report the followiong error appears in the dialog box:
Error in the File CollectionDate_Branch_wise {609BA059-89AF-41E9-9AEB-28CB16D13852}.rpt:
The request could not be submitted for background processing.
Edited by: Iqbal Faisal on Feb 22, 2010 6:03 AMHi,
Do you mean you have a Main report that is written based on SQL Command and there are 8 subreports linked to the main report?
If that is the case, I assume when user select 'Document Type" eg invoice, it will pass that to the subreport and retrieve information?
This is how I will approach it.
1. Make sure the connection is consistent, if you are using ODBC(RDO) then make sure that is the same for main and subreport. You can check that in Set database connection. Right click on the connection, look at the Properties. Don't assume that the name is the same, eg: SBO_DemoUS, they are all ODBC(RDO) for instannce.
In Crystal, when you are using different connection, it will just prompts you a warning message and it will still run.
2. Delete all and only keep one subreport, example AR invoice and see it will still give a problem.
Replace the parameter with a set value in Record selection in subreport and see what happen. -
Error when saving Crystal Report to SAP BW (via SAP toolbar)
Dear Experts -
Our landscape is:
Backend - SAP BW7.4 with Service pack 5
Crystal Version - Crystal Reports 2013 SP1 Patch 6
Business Objects - SAP BI 4.1 SP1 Patch 6
I'm trying to save a crystal report to SAP BW via the toolbar option, but the attached error is being returned.
Also, if I try to create a new report from BW, an error is thrown. 'An error occurred while generating a new report template; No error'.
Any feedback/pointers would be valuable.
Regards,
Tarun.I realize this post is a few months old, but did S. B. O. Shell Business One get this issue cleared up by installing the BW transports mentioned in Josh's reply? I'm interested in knowing whether this was resolved as we are receiving the same error as the one shown in the initial post.

Problem opening Crystal Report from SAP GUI through VPN
Hi Everyone,
I am facing an issue with opening the crystal report from SAP BW Role menu(SAP GUI). The issue is only with the BW Users who are connecting to the Client systems through VPN. All the settings are done perfectly in the Transaction /CRYSTAL/RPTADMIN and SICF for the CE_URL.
For those who are in the client network it works fine. Please see the URLs generated in both the cases,below.
