No datasource visible to BI Publisher Developer role

Hi,
I created an user with "BI Publisher Developer" role. When I login as this user, no datasource is visible to this user.
Even though create and edit report are available, he cannot do anything to complete the creation of report.
I know that "BI Publisher Developer" role is a built in role which cannot be edited.
Do I need to create a different role which can have access to datasource and assign that role to the above user (who already has a developer role)?
Document is not clear on this. Please let me know if this behaviour of "BI Publisher Developer" role is correct?
Thanks
Girija

Hi,
The "BI Publisher Developer" role is not editable and I cannot assign any data sources to it.
When I see datasource's definition, it only shows roles that were created by me, i.e. roles can be created and assigned datasources
and datasources can be created and given to previously existing roles.
So, I had to create a role with access to database and then give it to the user/developer to see that datasource.
Which is kind of weird because I have to give 2 roles to any of my report developers, (1) "BI Publisher Developer" (2) role with access to datasource.
Just giving (2) doesn't give him a report create/edit ability and just giving (1) enables the see to create/edit , but he can't successfully
create/edit a report without access to any datasource.
No where in the document it says a report developer needs 2 roles.

Developer role able to edit a shared report that he did not create

Hi,
It seems like user with "BI Publisher Developer" role is able to edit a report
in shared folder that he has access to.
Question: How can I create a user who can develop/create/edit his own reports,
and have view only access to some shared reports and
have edit access to some other shared reports?
i.e I want a scenario where there are 2 folders in Shared folder say FolderA and FolderB.
I want to create a user who is a developer such that he can create reports under My Folder
for his personal use and also be able to create/edit reports under Shared/FolderA,
but have only view-only access to Shared/FolderB
Thanks

Not able to create a new DC through NWDS with NWDI Developer role

Hi everyone,
My userid has NWDI Developer role assigned. I am trying to create a new Webdynpro DC under the software component defined in the configuration imported. It gives me an error after assigning the activity and pressing on Finish button.
I went through logs and found that it has some problems because I am not assigned the Lcr* role (this role should be in the NWDI Developer itself). I assigned the Lcr* role to my user id and tried to create the DC again. I am getting the same problem.
Please help.
Thanks,
Amber

Best Practice for BEX Query "PUBLISH to ROLE"?

Hello.
We are trying to determine the best practice for publishing BEX queries/views/workbooks to ROLEs.
To be clear of the process I am referring: from the BEX Query Designer, there is an option QUERY>PUBLISH>TO ROLE. This function updates the user menu of the selected security role with essentially a shortcut to the BEX query. It is also possible to save VIEWS/WORKBOOKS to a role from the BEX Analyzer menu. We have found ROLE menus to be a good way to organize BEX queries/views/workbooks for our users.
Our dilemma is whether to publish to the role in our DEV system and transport to PROD,... or if it is ok to publish to the role directly in the PROD system.
Publishing in DEV is not always possible, as we have objects in PROD that do not exist in DEV. For example, we allow power users to create queries directly in PROD. We also allow VIEWS and WORKBOOKS to be created directly in PROD. It would not be possible to publish types of objects in DEV.
Publishing in PROD eliminates the issues above, but causes concerns for our SECURITY team. We would be able to maintain these special roles directly in PROD.
Would appreciate any ideas, suggestions, examples of how others are handling this BEX publish-to-role process.
Thank you.
-Joel

Hi Joel,
Again as per the Best Practices.Nothing to be created in PRD,even if we create them in PRD for Power users its assumed as temprory and can be deleted at any time.
So if there are already deviations then you can go for deviations in this case as well but it wont be the Best Practice.Also in few cases we have workbooks created in PRD as they cud nt be created in DEV due to various reasons...in such cases we did not think of Best Practice ,we had a raised an OSS on this aswell.
In our Project,we have done everything in DEV and transported to PRD,in case there were any very Minor changes at query level we have done in PRD and immedialtely replicated the same in DEV so that they are in SYNC.

Java Development Role problems!

I have tried to add the java development role to a users account. I have added the following roles:
SAP_JAVA_NWADMIN_CENTRAL
SAP_JAVA_NWADMIN_LOCAL
Apparently they are meant to get a new tab but it does not appear. Am I adding the right roles?

Hi Phil,
See this link for help
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/e2/75a74046033913e10000000a155106/frameset.htm
First, You have to create a logger.xml file in the Logger folder of your portal component
Then get a hold of that logger and write to it:
ILogger pLogger;
pLogger = PortalRuntime.getLogger("my_logger");
pLogger.info("testing");
Then, you can find this Logger in EP6 under : System Admin > monitoring > portal > Logging Console
Hope this helps

Hi Gary,
> Now do I put this back in original directory
Rrrighty.
> do I need to add back .bak or leave as .par?
Leave as PAR. If the server starts, all .par files within this directory get deployed and in the case of success, .bak gets added. So .par.bak files are not deployed again on the next startup.
> do I need to delete original
> then add my updated version?
I think you don't need to delete the original, but just do it. If your changed .par file get deployed successfully, it will overwrite the old .par.bak anyhow.
But make a security copy of the orginal file for the case that you have changed the original PAR in some strange way
Hope it helps

ChaRM Test Message SDTM - Tester role cannot be same as the developer role

Hi Experts,
When the developer raise a test message SDTM, The developer couldn't confirm the message as we get a warning as
" Tester role cannot be same as the developer role "
We cheked the roles of developer and tester, they were not same .
We checked the Assign conditions in SDTM, But it doesnt have any values.
Advance thanks to all those replies.
Best regards,
Vin

Hi Friend
System check the name in the ticket or the BP for the person of Tester and Developer
Every person has unique BP so if the same name is entered in the ticket as Tester and developer then system will give you this warning.Since SAP recommendation is to have Dev and Tester 2 diff person.
You can ignore the same if Tester and Developer is the same person and might be you have technically created different roles for the same.
Hope it clarifies.

Developer Role for CRM Functional Team

Hello,
I would like to have your inputs on creating a developer role for CRM Functional Team in Dev system.
I found a standard role SAPCRM_DEVELOPER , does it has sufficient Authorisations to carry out the config work in CRM or do we need any more additional Auth.
The team members also have IC AgentIC ManagerSrv Pro roles as well.
Thanks in advance
regards
sam

Hi,
You don't need a role to development team. You can assign the auth. in dev system and perform the tests in the specifics roles.

Developer roles

Hi,
The development staff require access to multiple schema objects on the db but I am loathed to assign the 'ALL' to the DDL privileges as I would like to
restrict access to a specific schema without limiting the developers to their own schema.
Presently i given the below privileges, Please tell me developer point of view which privileges is required?
GRANT EXECUTE ANY PROCEDURE TO DEVELOPER_ROLE;
GRANT DROP ANY TRIGGER TO DEVELOPER_ROLE;
GRANT DROP ANY VIEW TO DEVELOPER_ROLE;
GRANT ALTER ANY SEQUENCE TO DEVELOPER_ROLE;
GRANT CREATE ANY INDEXTYPE TO DEVELOPER_ROLE;
GRANT CREATE TRIGGER TO DEVELOPER_ROLE;
GRANT EXECUTE ANY PROGRAM TO DEVELOPER_ROLE;
GRANT ALTER ANY PROCEDURE TO DEVELOPER_ROLE;
GRANT CREATE SEQUENCE TO DEVELOPER_ROLE;
GRANT SELECT ANY SEQUENCE TO DEVELOPER_ROLE;
GRANT ALTER ANY TRIGGER TO DEVELOPER_ROLE;
GRANT EXECUTE ANY TYPE TO DEVELOPER_ROLE;
GRANT ALTER ANY TABLE TO DEVELOPER_ROLE;
GRANT CREATE VIEW TO DEVELOPER_ROLE;
GRANT CREATE ANY INDEX TO DEVELOPER_ROLE;
GRANT DROP ANY INDEX TO DEVELOPER_ROLE;
GRANT CREATE TYPE TO DEVELOPER_ROLE;
GRANT ALTER ANY INDEX TO DEVELOPER_ROLE;
GRANT CREATE ANY PROCEDURE TO DEVELOPER_ROLE;
GRANT DROP ANY INDEXTYPE TO DEVELOPER_ROLE;
GRANT CREATE ANY MATERIALIZED VIEW TO DEVELOPER_ROLE;
GRANT CREATE ANY SYNONYM TO DEVELOPER_ROLE;
GRANT CREATE ANY SEQUENCE TO DEVELOPER_ROLE;
GRANT CREATE INDEXTYPE TO DEVELOPER_ROLE;
GRANT EXECUTE ANY INDEXTYPE TO DEVELOPER_ROLE;
GRANT DROP ANY TYPE TO DEVELOPER_ROLE;
GRANT CREATE MATERIALIZED VIEW TO DEVELOPER_ROLE;
GRANT DEBUG ANY PROCEDURE TO DEVELOPER_ROLE;
GRANT CREATE ANY VIEW TO DEVELOPER_ROLE;
GRANT ALTER ANY TYPE TO DEVELOPER_ROLE;
GRANT CREATE ANY TRIGGER TO DEVELOPER_ROLE;
GRANT CREATE ANY TYPE TO DEVELOPER_ROLE;
GRANT DROP ANY SEQUENCE TO DEVELOPER_ROLE;
GRANT DROP ANY TABLE TO DEVELOPER_ROLE;

Hi;
There is no specific answer for your question, you can create some role which can create function or procedure etc. You can give some basic grant to developer role and than you can add new grant in that role or can create one other new role for your developers

Developing Roles and transport strategy.

Hello,
I need to finalize the Role development Plan.
I am not sure where do we built , test and transport roles to production.
I am thinking of developing roles in development in dev in a seperate clint . This clint will be copy of golde client.
Then this roles will be tested in quality and finally send to production.
Hence forth any changed to role will go thourh same cycle.
Please suggest !!!

>There are some things which you cannot add into roles if they are not set up (responsibility area heirachies, profit centre groups etc) so you need to ensure that non-transportable config is also made in your security client.
Thats a imp point th to my that you have bought to my notice. Are there any coustomizing such no range and stuff that can not be transported?
I wonder if its the case then all coustomizinf will be need to be done in QUA and PRD system seperately as well.
Also one thing i would like to mention is that I am trying to avoid development of roles on Actual devement client cause I am afraid of hamppering the coustoming data which developing roles . Cause most of my development of roles will take place by trial and error method .
So I am aprehensive to use development cline and find alternatives

Where to find out the log file under java developer role

Hi,
I have some application created in NWDS. While running it after the PAR deployment and all. some exception is thrown. the exception iD is given. I was trying to find out wher the log files are located in the portal so that I can analyze the exception.
I think it is under the java developer role....but under that......I checked the log viewer tool and all.....but exactly where the log files would be located. so that with the exception ID , I can search and find out the log for the particular exception.
any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Steelman,
Use the search option in log viewer for this purpose. In the server it would be located in
usr/sap/sid/jc00/cluster/server0/logs
Hope this helps.
