Portal Integration - BO XI R2

Target u2013 To integrate BO reports on the SAP portal
Environment u2013 SAP BI and BO XI R2
Question u2013
Hi Guys,
Please let me know if it is possible with the environment mentioned above to achieve the target. If yes, what are the options we have especially to integrate Desktop Intelligence reports onto the SAP Portal.
Please note the question is very specific to the environment I have mentioned.
Thanks in anticipation.

Thanks for replying,
The data source is currently non-SAP.
George, I am aware that Desktop Intelligence won't be able to look at SAP database but the objective is to display the reports onto the SAP BI portal.
Thanks

BSP Exception: Access to URL /irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.ip.bi.web.portal.integration.launcher;jsessionid= not allowed

Dear all,
I've created out BI system in our new Portal installation and tested the connection. Everything works fine. I added the certificate of the portal to STRUSTSSO2 in BI ABAP and assigned SAP_ALL and SAP_NEW to my Account.in BI. If I open the iView from the portal I get a BSP Exception with the message:
The used connection by the iView is to the ABAP-Stack of the BI-system not to the JAVA-Stack. Is that correct?

What can be the problem/reason?

Hi Gerrit
In both places you have to provide a authorization access to the end users then only it will work. because your are already said that in SAP_All & SAP_New working fine

Authentication issue with Xcelsius/Portal integration

I am facing an issue with the way we have integrated our Xcelsius dashboard with our corporate portal. I know this probably is more of a SDK question than Administration, but I figured I will ask it here anyway since Tim and some others are diverse enough in their knowledge base. This might be LONG post but please advise if anyone has any good pointers.
We have an Xcelsius dashboard that needs to be served up via our corporate intranet (based on MS Sharepoint 2007). Now we are NOT using the MS Sharepoint Portal Integration Kit, but just doing a basic integration of the SWF call within a web part on Sharepoint. All this means is that within a portlet (web-part) on Sharepoint, I am making a HTTP call to the openDocument URL to invoke the SWF file. So the SWF is actually served up from our Tomcat App Server, and displayed onto this frame within the portal. That is the basic idea.
To achieve this, what I did was write some custom code using the Java SDK to modify the openDocument a little bit. By doing so, I was able to insert some behind-the-scenes-login code wherein no matter who the portal user (Win AD-based) is, he is logged in to BOE as a generic "dashboard-user" and the dashboard is served up. This worked fine for the first dashboard where all we had was SWF and some WebI linking using openDocument (no full-InfoView access).
But in this second dashboard now, what we also have is a hyperlink for users to get to InfoView to do Ad-hoc reporting. What this does is open a child browser window from within the portal (dashboard) --- and it remembers the BOE session for the generic user id "dashboard-user" and logs the end-user in to InfoView using that. But what I actually want is that the end-users, on this new window, should only be prompted at the traditional InfoView logon screen where they can manually enter their Windows AD password and get in. Thus, I would like to keep the dashboard SWF page session separate from the InfoView ad-hoc session, which I cannot seem to do because of the browser relationship and session maintenance.
I am trying to find a way where I can simulate a single sign-on for dashboard viewers on the portal, but at the same time let them jump off to InfoView as themselves.
Any thoughts on how I can do this?
Notes:
We DO NOT have Single Sign-On enabled for InfoView
We are using Windows AD authentication (manual, no SSO)
We are on Tomcat

Sarang Deshpande wrote:
1) If the InfoView app on Tomcat (desktoplaunch) is configured with Vintela, openDocument calls from the portal with automatically work using behind the scenes SSO, correct?
in XIR2 everything that falls under infoview should SSO when infoview is setup for SSO (not the case in XI 3.x)
Sarang Deshpande wrote:
2) What is the best practice when it comes to the service accounts needed? I have implemented Windows AD manual auth already so I have a service account that use for that. Should I be using the same on and making vintela/SSO-specific changes to it...or should I have a separate vintela service account and deal with two different ones..each for a diff purpose?
There is no best practice per se but the less service account the lower your chances to duplicate an SPN, functionally everything seems to work just as well with multiple as it does with 1 (of course with 1 there is less management work) If you click the SSO link in my forum sticky post I have a section explaining this with some suggested methods of deploying a service account(s)
Sarang Deshpande wrote:
3) Other than some minor browser configurations that might be required, is there anything else that I should communicate to the team about what might be required to be "pushed" to users' PCs?
Using the default config nothing should be required on the client machine (unless SSO has been disabled in the browser or you intend to use a url that contains a period ..... (i.e. FQDN or IP) with hostname URL (the default) it should just work.
To note if you have XP SP2 or older there is a microsoft spnego bug you may need to apply a fix if you aren't patched to SP3 (about 5% of our customers run into this).

Whether i should install the BO Integration kit in EP portal also or any Portal Inetgration kit is available.
Regards
Bala

Hi,
1. Whether Integration kit for SAP should be installed in EP Server also ( which has been installed in BO server for BI and the SSO for BI and EP STRUSTSSO2 also works fine.
- the portal is acting as the frontend for viewing content and yes there needs to be trust between your portal and your BW system
2. the connector parameter and the iview template object parameter as correct as per the distributed enviorment.
When i checked with portal; admin they asked doubt what should be crystal enterprise server ( BO) and the what is the server should connector parameter should have.
- the Crystal Enterprise parameter do not influence the connector properties and do not lead to the point that the connector settings fail. the Crystal Enterprise parameters are only relevant when viewing SAP BusinessObjects related content.
Make sure you connector settings work even without the Crystal Enterprise parameters first.

Portal integration with E-Business and Discoverer 10g

Hello Everyone,
We have a R12 integrated with SSO/OID. We also have a standalone Oracle BI Discoverer 10g. We want to implement Oracle Portal here. One of the requirements of this project is to have a common home page for both E-Business Suite login as well Discoverer access. Right now E-Business Suite login is seperate and Discoverer home page is seperate (because it comes from a Standalone installation)
1) What are the benefits of having AS Portal 10g for end users ?
2) To begin with, we would like to go with the minimum portlets.
3) Is it possible to have a common home page for both E-Biz access and the Discoverer acess after Portal integration ?
4) Do you have some screenshots of how things look after Portal integration
-Thanks
Srinivas

Hi,
take a look in metalink Note:313418.1. :
"Using Discoverer 10.1.2 with Oracle E-Business Suite 11i"
Look in section 6 - post installation.
Follow the steps and have a very good luck.

BO Portal Integration for SSO

Hi
We are currently doing the BO Portal Integration
We are using BO 3.1 and Portal 7.01 and the Integration Kit is 3.1
We want to integrate Portal with BO
I am following the following link for integration
http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/BOBJ/CreateBOEXI3.1IntegrationKitiViewTemplateintoSAPEP+Portal
In that step 19 they have mentioned the details of Connector during System creation
We are not using SAP BI, the BO gets its data from rapidmart and BO users are created on Windows Active Directory.
So when the users are being created on windows AD how do we populate the values in the Connector of the System Creation
beacuase the step 19 says
From the Property Category list select Connector. Your selections determine the SAP ABAP system that will be validating the users. This is the system that you have defined previously as an entitlement system in CMC. Configure the values for Application Host, Gateway Host, Gateway Service, SAP client, SAP System ID (SID) and SAP System Number according to the SAP system.
Can someone please let me know regarding this and how we do the SSO between Portal and BO
As our user validation is not SAP ABAP system but Windows AD
Regards

Hello Johannes,
Could you please help to display BO reports in Portal.
please look into thread crated for the same.

Enterprise portal integration with Oracle forms

Hi
Can anyone help me on this .
"Enterprise portal integration with Oracle forms".
I want to integrate oracle forms to EP .I am trying to work with app Integrator but I am not able to make any headway.Do you have any documents pertaining to this or any place where I can look for details.
Thanks
Alok

Hi,
i'm not aware of special integration feature with Oracle forms, but if as you said we are talking about a web application available via url then i see no problem doing so. the way you can implement the SSO is using something called Application Integrator which helps you build smart URL iView's that can use the portal framework (like systems, user profile , etc) , so you can build your oracle forms integration iView that will take the user password data from the portal (via system) using user mapping or sap logon tickets.
for more details on Application Integrator see
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/70/5a3842134bad04e10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm
regarding to the java applet, i don't really know what you mean by "jinitiator" but if your regular browser can do it then i see no reason for problems.
i hope it helps

SAP Portal Integration with InfoView

Hi Experts,
I have successfully configured SAP Portal Integration with InfoView using the following steps provided by Ingo:
- set the system that you want to be authenticated against as the DEFAULT system in the options of the SAP authentication.
- go to the webapps folder of your app server and navigate to the InfOView folder
For the Java version of InfoView (Windows environment) you need to edit the file web.xml, which is located (assuming Tomcat as application server) in the directory \Program Files\Business Objects\Tomcat55\webapps\InfoViewApp\WEB-INF for the actual deployment.
In addition you can make the change to the file in the folder <INSTALLDIR>\BusinessObjects Enterprise12.0\warfiles\WebApps\InfoViewApp\WEB-INF. The files in the second locations are being used when you redeploy the web applications with a tool like wdeploy. You need to change the following values
authentication.default = secSAPR3
siteminder.enabled = False
sso.enabled = True
Then I have created URLiView to InfoView login page, when the user click on the link, BOBJ will use the DEFAULT system to authenticate user.
However, there is a new requirement for users who exist in another SAP system to SSO into InfoView too. My question is whether we can specify in URLiView url or other configuration to select which SAP System to authenticate user on?
I would like to create Role A and Role B in Portal and each will display different URLiView that will authenticate user against different SAP System if possible.
Appreciate your advise.
Regards,
Medy

Hi Ingo,
Thank you for your reply.
We are trying to create an URLiView to the logon page of InfoView: http://<BOBJ Server>/InfoViewApp/logon.jsp that will bring the user to InfoView home if SSO passed instead of OpenDocument URL.
I have tried to add URL parameters to the URLiView (http://<BOBJ Server>//InfoViewApp/logon.jsp?SAP_SYSID=DCD&SAP_CLIENT=200), but InfoView is still using the default system in CMC to authenticate user.
Please advise.
Best Regards,
Medy

Weblogic portal Integration with UCM by weblogic virtual repository

Anyone has experience with Weblogic portal Integration with UCM by weblogic virtual repository? Thanks.

Since only folders_g can be used for integrating with Webcenter Spaces/Portal we are not sure of what our strategy should be. Is there plan to use framework folders with Webenter in the future?Certainly there are. Unfortunately, no exact date/release has been communicated so far. If you need a quick implementation (following few next months) I'm afraid you will have to go with folder_g

Portal integration with ISA

I would like to know the standard way ISA is integrated into Portal in a B2C scenario where a customer self registers himself on the Portal and then SSOs to ISA. Will the Portal User ID <b>have to</b> be something cryptic like the SU01 User ID ISA creates on the backend CRM server or is there anyway we can use the friendly alias? The biggest problem we are facing is figuring out how to authenticate SAP Portal using the Alias field of SU01 ISA user instead of the SU01 User ID and still be able to perform SSO to ISA.
Any help with this will be greatly appreciated.
I would really love to hear from people who have worked on integrating SAP Portal with ISA (Internet Sales).
Thanks,
Krishna

Hello All
I was just tasked with ISA and Portal integration and I do not know where to start. We are not running any SSO yet.
I would like to configure if possible without this. Any directions would help.
Thanks
