Access "Business Intelligence Consumer Services (BICS)" over WebDynpro Java

Dear all
I have to access the SAP BI from WebDynpro Java.
At the moment I do this over the BI-JAVA-SDK which has unfortunately no integration with the BEx-QueryDesigner.
Therefore my question:
1. Is it possible to access the SAP BI over the "Business Intelligence Consumer Services (BICS)"? And if yes, where can I find the corresponding documentation? (I have not found it by myself)
2. What is your preferred way to get data from the SAP BI in WebDynpro Java?
Greetings
Rolf

Hi
Did you solve problem with number 1?

Business Intelligence - Discoverer Viewer

Hi,
If we have 1 license for Business Intelligence Standard Edition, and we have one user who will use Discoverer Plus and 20 users who will use Discoverer Viewer, do we need to get more licenses for the Viewer or we can have as many users as we want to use the viewer with 1 Business Intelligence license?

Hi
Discoverer Viewer is licensed the same as Discoverer Plus. If you have 1 Plus user and 20 Viewer users you need to be licensed for 21 users.
You can either buy named users or you can buy an unlimited license. The cutover point is 25 users becauses the last time I looked I believe the per user price was $800 and the perpetual was $20,000 per CPU.
The minimum purchase for named users is 5 so are you absolutely certain that 1 license you have isn't a perpetual license or even perhaps a Discoverer Admin license?
You should discuss this with your Oracle sales rep who may well be able to get you a better price.
Best wishes
Michael

How to create a Real Time Interactive Business Intelligence Solution in SharePoint 2013

Hi Experts,
I was recently given the below requirements to architect/implement a business intelligence solution that deals with instant/real data modifications in data sources. After going through many articles, e-books, expert blogs, I am still unable to piece the
right information to design an effective solution to my problem. Also, client is ready to invest in the best
infrastructure in order to achieve all the below requirements but yet it seems like a sword of Damocles that hangs around my neck in every direction I go.
Requirements
1) Reports must be created against many-to-many table relationships and against multiple data sources(SP Lists, SQL Server Custom Databases, External Databases).
2) The Report and Dashboard pages should refresh/reflect with real time data immediately as and when changes are made to the data sources.
3) The Reports should be cross-browser compatible(must work in google chrome, safari, firefox and IE), cross-platform(MAC, Android, Linux, Windows) and cross-device compatible(Tabs, Laptops &
Mobiles).
4) Client is Branding/UI conscious and wants the reports to look animated and pixel perfect similar to what's possible to create today in Excel 2013.
5) The reports must be interactive, parameterized, slice able, must load fast and have the ability to drill down or expand.
6) Client wants to leverage the Web Content Management, Document Management, Workflow abilities & other features of SharePoint with key focus being on the reporting solution.
7) Client wants the reports to be scalable, durable, secure and other standard needs.
Is SharePoint 2013 Business Intelligence a good candidate? I see the below limitations with the Product to achieve all the above requirements.
a) Cannot use Power Pivot with Excel deployed to SharePoint as the minimum granularity of refresh schedule is Daily. This violates Requirement 1.
b) Excel Services, Performance Point or Power View works as in-memory representation mode. This violates Requirement 1 and 2.
b) SSRS does not render the reports as stated above in requirement 3 and 4. The report rendering on the page is very slow for sample data itself. This violates Requirement 6 and 7.
Has someone been able to achieve all of the above requirements using SharePoint 2013 platform or any other platform. Please let me know the best possible solution. If possible, redirect me to whitepapers, articles, material that will help me design a effective
solution. Eagerly looking forward to hear from you experts!.
Please feel free to write in case you have any comments/clarifications.
Thanks,
Bhargav

Hi Experts,
Request your valuable inputs and support on achieving the above requirements.
Looking forward for your responses.

While back up and restoring the business intelligence site collection in sharepoint 2010

Hi,
i am trying to take backup of business intelligence site collection from one sharepoint server and restoring it to the 2nd sharepoint server,backup and restore successfully completed.i have configured all the performance point services on new server also.
but still i am getting below error:-
An exception occurred while rendering a Web control. The following diagnostic information might help to determine the cause of this problem: Microsoft.PerformancePoint.Scorecards.BpmException: The filter no longer exists or you do not have permission
to view it. PerformancePoint Services error code 20700.
Can anybody suggest me how to resolve these error.
And the dashboard is looking like below:-

Hey Surbi
I'm facing the same issue, actually restored a backup of the BI site collection into a different web app (on the same server) but get the same errors as you!
Looking into it the connection to the report or filter (whatever artefact it is) needs to be refreshed so technically the report doesn't exist as far as the performance web part is concerned!
However when I re-attached the web part to the filter or report I got a different error... 'This data source no longer exists'
So basically I found I had to re-create the reports and filters etc in Dashboard Designer... to re-create the dashboards. I did one page and don't want to spend months re-doing them!
Anyone come up with a way of preserving the web parts references to performance point items and the items connections to their data source in a restore of a site collection?

Business Intelligence and Analysis capabilities on XML content

On page 99 of Oracle XML DB Basic Demonstration pdf doc it si said: "Even though Business Intelligence, such as rollup and cube, are not XML aware they are able to process XML content exposed through a relational view"
is this true ? if so, how can i create a cube and/or
dimension from XML content exposed through a relational view ?
Unfortunately, Oracle 9i does not allow me to build materialzed views from XML content (Oracle objects)
Thanks in advance,

The intention of the documentation maybe that anything you can query using SQL, you can expose as XML. For instance, you could create an analytic workspace, expose it through views, query the views through SQL, and return the results as XML.

E-Business Suite Integration with Oracle Business Intelligence

Hi,
To integrate E-Business Suite with Oracle Business Intelligence I have done all the configurations as specified in DocId. *552735.1* of Metalink. I have tested the configurations by logging in from EBS and navigating to OBIEE Presentation Services. I'm able to navigate with no errors but not able to view Subject Areas in the Answers link. I'm testing this with 'Administrator' user. When I directly login to Presentation Serivices with the Administrator user I'm able to see the Subject Areas.
Can anyone have idea what is the problem?
Thanks in Advance,

Hi,
Think I spotted the problem - probably specific to OBIA 7.9.5.
There is no "Authorization" initialization block: in previous incarnations (e.g. OBIA 7.9.4 and earlier I guess) there was a FndGetResp intialization block that assigned a value to the OBIEE "GROUP" system variable.
So I did the following and now I'm getting Subject Areas and Answers answers, but Dashboards still not working for me - maybe another issue.
1. Create system variable GROUP, temporarily with initialization block "Authentication"
2. Create initialization block "EBS Responsibility to Group" with query (note I've modified based on new session variable name RESP_ID goes to OLTP_EBS_RESP_ID in 7.9.5):
SELECT RESPONSIBILITY_KEY
FROM FND_RESPONSIBILITY
WHERE RESPONSIBILITY_ID = 'valueof(NQ_SESSION.OLTP_EBS_RESP_ID)'
Set the execution precendence to include EBS Security Context and EBS Single Sign-On Integration
NB: Had to create dummy variable GROUP_TMP for the "OK" button to come up, will replace that with real GROUP in next steps
3. Go back and edit System variable GROUP and change initialization block to EBS Responsibility to Group
4. Go back and edit initialization block EBS Responsibility to Group and remove variable GROUP_TMP
5. Created an OBIEE Group with name = responsibility key e.g. for my "SBA Administrator" responsibility, key = "SBA_ADMIN_KEY", so I created group named "SBA_ADMIN_KEY"
6. Made your new group (e.g. SBA_ADMIN_KEY) a member of the Administrators Group
7. Copy across rpd and restart sa / saw
Still awaiting response from Oracle Support ... so no guarantees this is correct and no guarantees that it won't break something else that Oracle suggests later!
Regards,
Gareth

Oracle Business Intelligence Dashboard username / password

Hello
I am trying to access Business Intelligence Dashboard and it is prompting for a username / password. I have the administrator username/ password however it is not allowing me to login. Which username / password should i use to access the dashboard page.
Any help in this regard is appreciated.
Thanks
Navaneeth

Hi,
i think you are new to OBIEE.
let me say something about it.
OBIEE has mainly two components on which users can work.
1.RPD. (Designing and syncronization from Database comes under this).
2.Presentation. (Dashboards,Answers and all other reports to the end user for analysis.)
What ever you have designed in the rpd of OBIEE can be viewed in Presentation.
To access rpd go to OracleBI/server/repository and click on your rpd.
the default path of the rpd is (OracleBI/server/repository).
You have many rpd's find the correct one.
you have to configure it for presentation.
it is a long process.
If you are using 10g you can login with user_name :Administrator and password :Administrator or empty.
Regards,
Lakshmipathi.

Oracle Business Intelligence How to choose data set based on a condition

Hi,
I am using Oracle Business Intelligence for creating reports, i am facing a situation where i have two quries (data sets in BI), one to display a Failure message and other to fetch data from the table to be displayed in the report.
The problem is i am unable to choose which data set to run based on a condition. How to use a condition based on which the dataset will be run
For example : i will read a table column value if it is 'S' means success, then i have to run the dataset to fetch the data from the table.
If the column value has 'F' then i have to run the dataset which will display failure message
Please let me know if any of you have any idea on this
Thanks in advance

Hi Chinna,
You have to use some scripting as well as coding to perform the tasks listed by you. First of all make your form Dynamic, In your Adobe lifecycle Designer, open your form,
Goto, File --> Form Properties,
Goto the Defaults tab,
Select "Dynamic PDF" for the XDP Preview Format:
Click OK.
This setting will now allow dynamicity in your Form, when you view it in PDF Preview tab.
For Hiding/Unhiding the fields/SF, you can use the presence property and set it based on the conditions. like:
if (this.rawValue == null)
TextField1.presence = "hidden";
For your second task, you may map a method corresponding to onSubmit event of the IF and write the code to create the workflow and make RFC call here.
For third one, you need to convert the PDFObject from Binary context into a byte array and save it at appropriate location.
Hope I have answered all your queries.
Cheers,
Arafat

Business Intelligence in Ireland

Hi great ones,
I am currently working as a technical support analyst at the moment but I want to change to SAP Business Intelligence.
I am very new to SAP and I am living in Ireland, going through job adverts I have not really been seeing BI jobs in Ireland.
Please I need an advive if I should change for another SAP area or I am in the right direction.
Your advice will be highly appreciated,
Bankole

Hi Bankole,
I am not sure how much you know about SAP products: SAP R/3 (the name has undergone some changes, of late) is the product used for day-to-day business transactions. It is an OLTP system. SAP BW is another product which can acquire the data in SAP R/3 and other legacy systems and provide analysis of the same from a strategic perspective. It is an OLAP system.
SAP BW is a very interesting and rewarding career area. There are opportunities all over the world.
However, to come up to speed quickly, a background in having worked in SAP R/3 as a Business Analyst or as an ABAP Developer for a couple of years would be ideal.
If you like programming, getting into an ABAP developer role initially in a SAP R/3 environment, would be a good start. It is an equally good career area, requiring less business process knowledge to start with. It would also give you the time to understand the different business processes in an organization as mapped in a SAP R/3 system.
I would not dissuade you from getting trained in BW and seeking a BW career immediately, but then you may face a steeper learning curve and may need to operate with a lot of grey areas around you.
Best of luck!
Mathew.

Hi Guy
I received my doctorate from the University of St. Gallen in Switzerland, a very dedicated SAP University Alliances member, See www.unisg.ch and look for their English pages (choose the language at the top of the page) and the doctoral studies programs. International Business, my area, is headed by Prof. Martin Hilb. Even though these are full-time programs, he allowed me and some other students to pursue our degrees while working full-time in other countries. Prof. Hilb also encouraged us to find other professors on campus to supervise us who were more directly involved in research in our area of expertise - i.e. strategy, IT, corporate governance (my interest), finance, business innovation, etc.
I was able to condense my residence periods to just a few weeks over the first year - most others used 3 semesters (1.5 years). We used teleconferences over my dissertation semesters and I returned for my defense in person. I also was required to be there for my graduation. I was living in Germany and the USA at the time. But I know of others who were living in France, USA, and even China.The times we spent in Switzerland were condensed It was quite a challenge, but worth it. St. Gallen is a founding member of the Council of European Management Schools (CEMS) which includes recognized leading research universities in business and economics in the world.
I also had a colleague at Reutlingen University, a fellow professor who while he worked full-time as a vice-dean and then vice president started and completed his doctorate at Erasmus University in the Netherlands in operations management. This is also a very highly regarded university. There are many other examples of people pursuing doctoral studies parallel to work all over the world. Of course, it is quite difficult, but you know that.
You could use your business network contacts, including in your own firm, to link to professors at some universities, UA members are listed under "University Alliances Around the World" on the right hand side of the following page https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/overview of our UA community portal. Most professors want full-time graduate students to live and work full-time for them doing research and teaching. However, some are open to very experienced people with innovative ideas to research parallel to working, because they bring diversity and different perspectives to the table.
Good Luck!

Tokenization and Business Intelligence reports....

Hello Gurus,
I am kind of stuck trying to find a solution how can one deploy a tokenization architecture and yet make use of it in building Business Intelligence reports. Basically the model could be described as follows:
I two databases, the first is database "A" that contains the actual and business data. The second database is database "B", this one holds tokens that corresponds to the business data on database "A". In this model the reporting server is not directly connected to the data warehousing database directly. The business data gets propagated to the BI server, passing through the tokenization database which has the direct connection to the BI server.
I am basically stuck finding how can requests propagated within this three tier architecture seamlessly. A typical request is to be submitted by the BI report, the report sends the request to the tokenization databse. From the point of the tokenization database point of view, upon receiving the request from the report the tokenized database resolves the request in order to retrieve the business data from the data warehouse and sends it back to the report in order to appear in the form desired.
I would be grateful if anyone would be able to propose a solution for how this seamless connection between the BI server and DW is to be done passing through the tokenization server.
Thanks in advance......

Business Explorer role is from 3.5 and BI role is new in 04s.
You will have to create the copy and remove the unwanted iViews from the new role.
You can set permissions at iView level (permission to specfc users for broadcaster iView) but it will be hard maintaining it.
