Obtaining Business Object source table

Hi,
is there any way to obtain the business object source table?
As I've seen the source table is written in DI API Ref.
Is there any way to take it from SDK?
Best regards,
Slawomir Naborczyk

Not that i know.
Just make your own lookup table. There are a limited amount of objects.

Two Business Objects to fill a Data Grid/table using Anchors?

Hi,
I have a SAP standard tile were a table (grid) is filled by an Business Object. I want to add an additional column and retrieve the value from another Business Object.
My questions
1) Can I use Anchors to automatically set the relationship between two Business Objects A & B, so that I can just Drag & Drop an additional field from Business Object B to the DataGrid of Business Object A in the design screen without writing additional code?
2) Some BO's do come with a predefined relationship to other BO's, but in the case of I have to write a supply function do I have to use a specific "Data Source Type" such as "Business Object", "BusinessQuery" or "Business CollectioN"?
3) I already tried to write a supply function, but I realized that the system does return for some BO's or BS's a object instance, if I call "gFactory.newBusinessQuery". Is there any logic/restriction behind?
I know I can use RowLoaded2 and a unbound column, but I want to know if this approach is also possible?
Thank you for any help,
Regards,
Andreas

Hi Andreas,
The answer to your question is YES. You can very well do it without any changes at the code level.
The scenerio can be implemented using a concept called JointField Mapping in MAS.
Scenerio 1 :
If you want to display the extra field from another BO in a list tile on the click of a search button from the search tile , then
Please do the following :
1. Select the Busines Query that you have associated to the search tile and go to properties from the View Designer.
2. In the properties, Click on the Joint Field Mapping and select the BO where the extra field id present and select the primary key, Segment Field associated, (extra field)BO Property that you want to display in the list tile.
2. Add a new control (new Field) in the List tile - ie, From the Toolbox (Tileset COntrols).
3.Go to properties of the newly added control. Associate the anchor as the same achor as the list tile was pointing to earlier. for eg : Y_BOCAPGEN.
4. Then Go to BCOLFieldName property and give the property name as the newly added BO property name(New field).
After everything is modelled, You will be able to see the extra field in your application!!!!
NOTE : Ofcourse, After the Successful generation.
Scenerio 2 :
If you want to display an Extra Field in a Detail tile,
1. Go to Relationship of the BO from the Detail tile and go to properties.
2. In the properties, You can find the Joint Field Mapping porperty.
3. This property is again modelled as explained in scenerio 1.
Hope, It would have definetly helped and answered your query.
Have a good day!!

Changing the Data source in Business Objects XI

Hi,
Is it possible to change the data source(not universe) in runtime to generate business objects reports. I am using BOXI 3.1.
Below is the code I am using to change the universe in runtime. I would like to change this so that i can change the data source instead of changing the universe. My intention is to generate report from multipple database using same universe. Right now I am using multipple universes connected to multiple datasources to achieve this. I am using Report Engine SDK(Java).
           if("Webi".equals(mDocKind))
               // Added for multiple database support
               DataProviders dataProvs = documentInstance.getDataProviders();
            try{
                //To support multiple queries in BO reports
             for(int count=0;count<dataProvs.getCount(); count++){
               DataProvider dp=dataProvs.getItem(count);
               DataSource ds= dp.getDataSource();
               infoUniverseObjects = getUniverseObject(infoStore,NewUniverseName);
               infoUniverseObject = (IInfoObject)infoUniverseObjects.get(0);
               String newDsCuid = infoUniverseObject.getCUID();
               dataProvs.changeDataSource(ds.getID(), "UnivCUID=" + newDsCuid, true);
               if(dataProvs.mustFillChangeDataSourceMapping())
                    // Re-map data source to target Universe objects
                    ChangeDataSourceMapping mapping = dataProvs.getChangeDataSourceMapping();
                    ChangeDataSourceObjectMapping[] maps = mapping.getAllMappings();
                    dataProvs.setChangeDataSourceMapping();
                }//for dataProvs.getCount()
            }catch(Exception e)
                  mLogger.info("BOReportObject","createReport","Inside multiple data providers loop"+e.getMessage());
Thanks in advance

Hi Shameer,
I think this is only possible with the Universe Designer SDK (which is only available in COM).
Please kindly refer to the API reference for the Universe Designer SDK for more details:
http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/boexir31/en/bodessdk.chm
Also, please note that changing the universe connection when viewing a document on-demand is not recommended because this could lead to possible issues.
For example:
Two users trying to view documents that uses the same universe at approximately the same time.
But user A wants to use connection X and user B wants to use connection Y.
This could lead to an error while openning the document or while refreshing/retrieving the the data.
Hope this helps.

Dan

Can we access tables created internally for Business objects in CAF

Hi,
     When we create and Deploying Business objects in CAF then internally it creates tables in Oracle/Maxdb database. Can we access those tables through CAF.
          Or is it possible for Oracle to access the Business objects tables which are deployed on SAP Web Application server?
          We can configure the Oracle driver in the SAP Web App Server. But how can we use it?

Hi Rohit!
Can we access the tables created internally for BO's without the use of CRUD methods provided by them.?
Or
Can we fire queries on these tables through Oracle.? As the tables are created along with BO's in the database.
Maybe, you can do that, but why do you want to do that?
Based on the Entity Services (i.e., CRUD and find operations) that are generated for your BOs, you can implement Application Services which contain any business operation that you want to perform. Furthermore, you can expose your Application Services as Web Services. That's the designated way to do that.
Manually manipulating the underlying database tables does not sound like a good idea.
Best regards
Alexander

How I can identify business objects in a table?

Hi,
Can someone advise me how to identify business objects and events created in a Ar Customers ( ARXCUDCI) table?
Many thanks,
regards
Ilinka

Depending on how big your spreadsheet is and how frequently you want to do this you might want to contruct insert statements in excel, then run these. I have done this to load a few hundred rows for a one off test on dev.
e.g. if you have values 1 and 'a' in you spread sheet and want to insert them in to table xxx col1 & 2:
| /|   A   |   B   |    C
|1 |col1   |col2   |
|2 |      1|a      |="insert into xxx ("&$A$1&","&B1&") values ("&A2&",'"&B2&"');"then paste the contents of colum C
insert into xxx (col1,col2) values (1,'a');into sqlplus or a script.

Business Object UserPermission using Table USR3

Hi,
Does anybody know where in the SAP B1 functionality the table USR3 (for Business Object UserPermission) and/or table OUPT (for Business Object UserPermissionTree) get populated?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Robert,
The DI API documentation about the UserPermission + UserPermissionTree object mentions that:
It mentions it in the introduction to this object - and essentially in the <b>Remarks</b> it even points you to the menu.

Business Object Types for Z-tables

hi
could anyone please guide me how to create business-object-types for Z-tables?
thanks in advance
regards
pavan

Hi,
Business objects (SWO1) are representations of business entities.
So it is impossible to ask I need to create a business object for a z-table, because that's not business specific.
Normally when you're faced with a BO issue, you first search for useable existing BO's. In there you also search if SAP has already provided the wanted functional requirement. If this is not present, you then search for a BO which is closest to the Functional requirement and then create a subtype of that BO en extend it to suit your needs (attributes, methods, events etc.) via delegation you can then also se it in sap standard.

Create a business model when we have only one source table

Hi,
How to create a business model when we have only one source table in Physical layer
Regards
Swathi

This is very much possible and feasible. Its called as Single Table model. Good example is SA System Subject Area where we just have a single physical source. No need to create Alias in Physical. Simply use the same table twice in BMM with one Logical Table as Dummy Fact..Like say Count of Users (aggregated). Then apply normal Complex join in BMM and present in presentation layer.

Reporting of recursive tables with Business Objects 6.1

Post Author: pk7
CA Forum: Publishing
Can anyone tell us how to traverse recursive tables with Business Objects 6.1? For example, let's say you have an Employee table with Emp_ID, Name, Manager_ID. Like so:
Emp_ID Name   Manager_ID
1           Jeff           4
2          Grace        3
3           Stacey      1
4           Wayne      null
The task is to report the hierarchy of employees starting with one employee (e.g. Grace) and showing who ALL of her superiors are. Desired result would be:
Grace
      Stacey
            Jeff
                   Wayne
We have seen the expanation the seems to require the duplication of a table but we prefer not to have the same data stored in multiple tables.
Thx!

Hi Dan,
Thanks for your response. However, what I meant by client installation is exactly as what you have said below.
I start the BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 3.1 Setup, go to custom install, which shows up the following options-
Client Components
Web Tier Components
Server Components
Database Access
etc. etc.
Initially I unselected all, drilled down Client Components and just installed the Developer Components. But the code used to fail with an InvalidCast exception when we used to cast an InfoObject to a Report as following-
Report report = (Report)infoObjects[1];
This code used to work fine with earlier installations of business objects.
This happened with all 3 of us who installed just the Dev components. To get over this we installed the whole Client Components and the above problem got resolved.
And now we realize that even the whole Client Comp is not enough because it gives the casting problem while doing the destination stuff.

Table for Business Objects and BAPIs

Hi All,
Is there any table which correlates a Business Object and all the BAPIs related to it.
Any pointers in this regard would be helpful.
Thanks,
Saher

hi,
GOTO SE11-> TOJTB-> give your business object
You get the list of programs where you are using your business object.
If a BAPI exists with this business object even that's displayed.

Given a business object type, how to find out the underlying table name ?

Hi,
Given a business object type (e.g. BUSxxx), is there any Function Module that can be used to get the table name for that object ?
Have been through the SWO* FM's but did not get anything yet.
Pls let me know how this can be done.
Regards,
-Kev.

Given a table name, I am able to figure out the column information and read that data. But all I have is the business object type, so would need to figure out all the tables (as you helpfully pointed out, there could be more than 1 for a business object) and then read from those tables.

So, assuming for the moment we are just dealing with the PO BUS2012 business object, your external application will be passing you a BO type and also (presumably- otherwise you could be sending back an awful lot of data) a BO key, and you then want to send back all the detail for PO - exactly what the GetDetail method that is present on most objects does - is that right?
Since most BOs have a GetDetail method, can't you just use that?
Though I really can't see why your external application would be interested in all SAP BOs - most applications are a bit more specific than that.

Source table for info object

Hi,
Can anybody tel me the SOURCE TABLE FOR the Info Object <b>Plant</b> technical name is " 0PLANT "..Is coming under Info Cube "Purchasing Data "..
Thanks in advance
Umesh mc

Barbara,
Did you do the replication of the datasources ?
Goto SourceSystem -> select your BW system -> right click replicate datasources.
Then refresh your object tree, it should show you the datasource.
Hope this helps,
