[ Progress report ] Typo3 meets SAP

Hello PHP Scripters,
[ Progress report ] Mambo meets SAP with SAP.
The concept is like Andi's. We authenticate against SAP SU05 Users using the Function Module BAPI_PAR_EMPLOYEE_CHECKPASSWOR. The User Information is written into the standard Typo3 Front end User database table. From a former ITS (SAP Internet Transaction Server) based application we have inherited a home grown authorization system which we use to map to Typo3 Front end User Groups. These groups are used to define what Pages are displayed for a authenticated user.
To connect to R/3 we use Web Services because of the better Unicode support and security mechanisms which can be implemented. We wrap the standard BAPI's and RFC Functionality by our own RFC.
We will allow Users with "Administration" rights to create new contact persons in the Company and change contact person data like first name, last name, E-Mail, Phone, Fax. The other functionalities are sales order status, price and availability check, quotations, ...
Best regards
Gregor

Hi,
I am using P6.7 sp2 Progress Reporter. When we have a number of users trying to submit timesheets, we receive the following error in the group server and then activities are no longer displayed on timesheets.
Exception [EclipseLink-4002] (Eclipse Persistence Services - 1.1.0.r3639-SNAPSHOT): org.eclipse.persistence.exceptions.DatabaseException

The only way around this is to restart the group server.
Has anyone experienced this?

Hi Neetu,
Do you wish that at all customer site all concern involved in implemtation do the same work ?
I believe ERP is meant for single entry system, and it should be true for implementation also, why to invest man hours for the same task ?
I expect it standard reports should be released by SAP, so that speed of implementation improve, we have more nos. of satisfied customers.
customised reports is all together different and it is understood that it is needed to be developed after study the exact requirement.

Reporting tools and SAP BW

Dear Sirs,
We have Business Objects BI 4.0 and SAP BW 7.3.
Actually we are using Web Intelligence and BEx Query to reporting.
We have not Business Layer (Universe) between BW and BO because BO it's not supported to create universe (unx) on BW. So we create document in WEBI using BEx Query.
We want to use Xcelsius (Dashboard Design) 2011 and I was thinking that we can use query from universe to connect with BW (new functionality in version 2011). Can we? Or maybe we should to connect to BW using "Connecttion to SAP BW"?
We want to use Explorer (on iPad and iPhone), but Explorer requires universe (unx).
Is not possible to create universe (unx, because unv is not supported via Explorer) based on SAP BW, is it true?
We should we do, when we want to use Explorer with SAP BW?
Do I understand connection between reporting tools and SAP BW:
Crystal Reports - can I use cubes or BEx queries
Xcelsius - using "Connection to SAP BW"
WEBI - BExqueries or universe (but only UNV - old version).
Explorer - in my opinion is not possible
Analysis for OLAP - drirect to cube in SAP BW
Could you please comment.

Hi
With the current version of the BI 4.0 SP2 BI Platform, one cannot create a universe (.UNX format) against BW using the OLAP connection. However you can create a universe (.UNX format) using the Relational connection (see OSS note: 1656905 - How to create UNX universe based on Business Warehourse InfoCubes). One limitation is the use of hierarchies with the relational connection.
Then you can create the Information spaces based on the universe (.UNX format) that the Explorer can use.
BO Reporting tools:
1. Crystal Reports for Enterprise = you can use the OLAP connection (BICS) directly against the BW InfoCubes or Queries, if queries already exist in the BW system then you can leverage these directly (less time spent recreating the entire query in Crystal)
2. Xcelsius = you can use the BICS or Web Service or Universe to access the data
3. Web Intelligence = you can use the OLAP Connection (BICS)
4. Explorer = you can use a universe (.UNX format) via a Relational Connection
5. Analysis for OLAP = you can use the OLAP connection (BICS) to either a query or InfoCube.
It is hoped that in Feature Pack 3 which will be released later this year, that missing functionalities will be delivered for BI 4.0.

Crystal report error in SAP

I have linked my first Crystal report into SAP (2007A), but when I try to run it I get an error.
Msg header "SAP Crystal AddOn"....Could not load file or assembly 'CrystalDecisions.Windows.Forms, Version = 12.0.2000.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=692fbea5521e1304' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.
I searched the SAP forums, but found nothing regarding this error. Anybody have an idea how to fix? I can't see my Crystal report. Does the report need to be stored in a specific location for it to be called from SAP? I was able to browse to it when I setup the link in SAP.

Error while creating report from BW SAP Query

Hi
While creating a report from BW SAP Query, I get the following error.
"An error occured while creating a report template.No error"
On opening the same query in BEx Analyser, i can see the fields and output.
Help me on this issue.
Thanks
Eswari.

Hello Garett,
I've the same problem and have tried now to get the data with MDX-Query. The error message below appears:
'No RFC-authorization for function group /Crystal/MDX for User ...'
So it seems to be a authorization problem. Which special authorization must be assigned to Crystal users in SAP BI?
Thank you for your help.
best regards

Issue in the Reporting feature of SAP BPC NW 7.0

Hi everyone,
I am facing an issue with respect to the Reporting feature in SAP BPC NW 7.0 version. I am supposed to generate a P&L report using the EVDRE function.
Issue-
In the report that I have generated, the system is retrieving only a subset of the broad-level P&L heads. e.g. while BPC is retrieving the EBITDA, EBIT and PAT figures, it is not retrieving the Depreciation, Interest and Tax figures in the report. All the members that are not getting displayed are members with ACCTYPE= 'EXP', while the ones getting displayed are members with ACCTYPE= 'INC'.
Even though the 'EXP' figures are not getting displayed, the amounts are getting deducted correctly. (i.e. even though Interest amount is not getting displayed in the report, the PBT figure being displayed is correctly calculated as PBT= EBIT-Interest).
Also, I am able to see the amount in Interest payments, if I drill to the base-member elements (G/Ls in my case)
Would really appreciate if someone could shed some light on what might be the probable issue.
Thanks in advance,
Sameer Rane

Hi Nilanjan/All,
Thanks a lot for your reply. I suppose, I was not very clear about my problem. The issue is with regards to the value for the Account-dimension members with ACCTYPE = 'EXP' and not with the members per se.
Setting the MemberSet Filter addresses the issue of getting particular Dimension members in the report. In my case, I am already seeing all the necessary members in my report (I have explicitly created a list of all the members I want to see in my report in the MemberSet parameter). However, I am not able to see any values for these members for any of the time periods (even though the values exist).
Also, I don't get any values for some of the INC items as well (e.g. OperationsIncome) inspite of the fact that the base member G/Ls under this account hold values.
Would appreciate any help towards resolving this issue.
Thanks in advance,
Sameer

There is a specific set of authorizations that you need to provide to your SAP user to be able to create CR reports against SAP data source. Check in the "SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise Integration for SAP Solutions Installation and Administration Guide" chapter 13 called "Authorization".
You can download this guide in the following URL: ht[http://service.sap.com/sapidb/011000358700000559912010E/xi31_sp3_bip_sap_inst_en.pdf|http://service.sap.com/sapidb/011000358700000559912010E/xi31_sp3_bip_sap_inst_en.pdf]

There are many other field appears under the Company Code charateristic but I dont know where are there coming from?

Failed to retrieve data from the database crystal reports 2008 in SAP B1

Hello friends,
I am using Crystal report 2008 with SAP B1 PL 8.8. When I run any report, it runs correctly from Crystal Report. But whenever I try to open the same report through SAP ( Tools -> Preview External Crystal Report ), it prompts the parameters for that report and then open up the crystal report window and throws an Error message ("failed to retrieve data from the database. Details [Database Vendor Code: 156]").
Please any one suggest me the corrective solution.
Thanks in Advance,
Keyur Raval.

I had the same problem in SAP B1 2007. Report worked fine except when it was open from B1. Generally there may be different problems. In my case the same problem was caused by using some procedure which was in a specific schema. Changing the schema into "dbo" solved the problem.
