Hi Ashok,
Here are he answers to your questions:
(1) HOW TO SEE THE PERFORMANCE OF BO REPORTS ?
I believe you can set up auditing database and then run a report to see the performance of the reports.
(2) WHAT IS THE ROW LEVEL SECURITY IN ADMINISTRATION OF SERVERS?
I am not clear about your question. If you mean row level security for reports then you can apply row level security at universe level.
(3) DEFINE CONTET DEFINITION ?
Can you be more clear and specific here please?
(4) VERSIONS OF THE CRYSTAL REPORTS,XELSIUS,DESKI REPORTS,WEB INTELLIGENCE,UNIVERSE,POLESTAR,VOYEGAR .
Business Objects Enterise 3.1... which will include WebI, Desiner, Xcelsius, Live Office, (Polestar and Voyager if you buy them), and CrystalREport 2008
(5) WHAT IS DATA PROVIDER?
DataProvider is very big and generic term.
Data Provider could be SAP, Oracle or any database. DataProvider feeds data...
Our DataProvider could be InfoCube, Query, etc...
(6) WHAT IS DATA INTEGRATOR?
Data Integrator works as a connection between Business Objects and Database (DataProvider)

Various questions on SAP XI usage

Hi XI Experts,
I have few questions on SAP XI usage :
Q1-Does SAP XI is unique - client like BW ?
If multi - clients is possible is there any particular usage recommandations when in design, configuration and production deploiement on PRD SAP XI System ?.
Q2-is it technically possible to restart a well processed message (with nice black & white flag in SXMB_MONI) ?
And I know its not a good thing to try to do this...
Q3-is it technically possible to modify XML payload in message ?
And I know again its a very bad thing to try to do this...
Q4-We have to work with xCBL 4.0 definitions. I think i only have to import all XSD definitions as External Definitions in Interface Objects of my repository. Does it right ?
Great thanks for your(s) response(s).
Best regards
Etienne

Some questions on SAP DMS

Hello
some questions on SAP DMS:-
- can versions of same document be shown graphically. ?
- can links be created for documents. can we make sure that links are not broken when document is moved ?(links to document on 1st location shall not be broken)
- is there a notification mechanism(user can recieve e-mail when document gets changed)
- is there a review mechanism, before doc. is archived.(sort life cycle)
Thanks

Hi Shovon,
1. can versions of same document be shown graphically?
You can display all existing versions of a document info record by using the menu 'Extras' >> 'Versions'. Then you will see all existing document version for this specific document number. Further you will see which is the current version at the moment.
2. can links be created for documents. can we make sure that links are not broken when document is moved ?(links to document on 1st location shall not be broken)
I'm not quite sure what you mean by links to documents. If you mean linking document info records together, I can confirm that this works also in DMS. You can maintain the object DRAW for object links in the customizing and then you will be able to link one document info record to another. The data for all document info records is stored in table DRAW.
If you are talking about originals which are linked to document info records, please note that if you check in an original the system creates a unique LOIO- and PHIO-ID which is stored in the Content Server and in the database tables DMS_DOC2LOIO and DMS_PHIO2FILE. But there are also different reports to migrate original data from one content Server to another (e.g. DMS_RELOCATE_CONTENT).
3. Is there a notification mechanism(user can recieve e-mail when document gets changed)
Yes you can activate an event type linkage for object
DRAW CHANGED DOKST
DRAW CHANGED DWNAM
in transaction SWE2. Here you just have to set the flag for 'Type linkage' (linkage activated). Then everytime the document is changed a notification is sent to the entered USER of this document info records.
4. Is there a review mechanism, before doc. is archived.(sort life cycle)
Normally there is no special lifecycle. You can control this by maintaining a released status and if there are more versions always version with the release status is the current one. But there is no specific date when the document info record expires or something like that.
Best regards,
Christoph
P.S.: Please reward points for useful information.

Questions about SAP's SRM capabilities

SRM Experts, I have two questions:
In SAP, is it possible:
1. To have "Amount Only Requisitions", that is, specify requisitions that enable requesters to order goods and services specifying only a dollar amount and not quantity.
2. Reopen Closed Requisitions and Purchase Orders, that is, re-open ANY previously closed requisition or purchase order, not only those from the last batch of the Close
Reconciliation process.
Thanks!

Ok let me try...
1) One of the Key building blogs will be the SAP NetWeaver Process Integration 7.1. Its provides the ES Repository for Service Metadata and the ES Registry for the Service Endpoints. The Registry you use for finding and classifcation of your services. Any yes XI/PI could be used as ESB.
Another keybuilding block is the SAP NetWeaver Composition Enviroment 7.1. This one is used at Design and Runtime for Composite Process, Composite Views and Composite Application which consume Enterprise Services.
2) WS-Poilcy, WS-Adressing and BPEL is defenetly supported with PI 7.1(release planned for september 2007)
3) This a part of the NetWeaver Composition Enviroment. For Monitoring you need brokered Service communication... in this case you can use PI as integration Broker which is able to monitor your communication.
4) Exacutable Business Process(BPEL) are supported by PI 7.1
You are able to Design these processes with the Design tools of the PI.
For Highlevel Process modeling ARIS for SAP Netweaver is integrated.
So from High Level Process models drill down to theService Operations are all part of the Enterprise Service Repository and can be used to realise you business tasks.
5) SAP provide the ES Workplace and SAP Discovery System for Enterprise SOA

Question concerning sap script

Hi all experts! I have a question concerning sap script
First some background information:
Ive created a sap script that is called from a function module and from an executable program, when I run the executable program the sap script work fine, but when I run the function module, all the variables in the sap script dont have value
In the function module the variables are defined in the top include
I dont know why these variables dont take his value from the function module
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
Message was edited by: Gerardo hernandez

I think that sapscript expects its variables to be in the program which calls the fm <b>by default</b>. When you test via SE37 the framework itself is the calling program and it's unlikely that it will have a variable named kunnr-name1.
To over-ride this default, inside your fm pass the 'options' parameter(type itcpo) to 'open_form' and set the 'tdprogram' value to sy-repid in the function module.
I have tested this in my own environemnt and initially got the same error as you. When I set the tdprogram variable it started working!

Some questions about SAP esourcing

Hi expert,
I have one question about SAP eSourcing. In RFQ document, before RFQ award is published, our customer do not want the price of RFx response disclosed to collaborators. After the award is published, the price can be released to collaborators. As I know, we can use page customization to hide page field. But the price is collection field. So I failed to use page customization to hide it.
Pls advise me how to realize it.

3 important questions about SAP HANA

Hello Community!
I have got 3 important questions about SAP HANA.
1.
- Our Company has all up about 150 SAP - Systems.
- 12 Systems are ERP-Systems.
=> We consider about SAP HANA at the moment.
=> Is it possible to put all the 12 ERP-Systems in ONE SAP HANA or do I need one seperate HANA for each ERP-System?
=> If it is possible, can you tell me the disadvantages when I use 1 HANA for the 12 ERP-Systems.
=> Is there a Storage-Limit in the HANA (I think no, because of 64 bit).
=> Can I still make realtime-analytics with 1 HANA for 12 SAP Systems?
2.
=> Can I run ONE HANA with different non-SAP-Systems?
3.
=> Is there a Demo-Center from SAP or IBM, where I can test and see the HANA before I buy it?
(I do not mean the Fujitsu TDS Demo Center)
It would be nice, when you would answer all my questions.
Thank you.

- 12 Systems are ERP-Systems.
=> We consider about SAP HANA at the moment.
=> Is it possible to put all the 12 ERP-Systems in ONE SAP HANA or do I need one seperate HANA for each ERP-System? Yes it is quite possible to put all the ERP/CRM/SCM or other components on one HANA. You need to check for pricing/users/RAM (storage)
=> If it is possible, can you tell me the disadvantages when I use 1 HANA for the 12 ERP-Systems.
There are no disadvantages as of now.. improve existing planning, forecasting, pricing
optimization and other processes
=> Is there a Storage-Limit in the HANA (I think no, because of 64 bit).
There is no limit on Stotrage: You need check how much Data you need on RAM (Real time processing) Storage.Minimum you can buy is 64 GB and multiple of it for (RAM)
=> Can I still make realtime-analytics with 1 HANA for 12 SAP Systems?
Yes certainly..
2.
=> Can I run ONE HANA with different non-SAP-Systems?
YEs you can run HANA for 3rd party S/W or non-sap systems for your real time anlytics.
It has ODBC and JDBC both and you can combine it with other systems.
3.
=> Is there a Demo-Center from SAP or IBM, where I can test and see the HANA before I buy it?
(I do not mean the Fujitsu TDS Demo Center)
This you need to check with your local SAP Service channel..
It would be nice, when you would answer all my questions.
Thank you.

Question about SAP client setting when create new connection in CR2008

Dear All,
I have a question about SAP client setting in Crystal Report 2008 when I try to create a new connection use SAP OpenSQL(SAP Table,Cluster,or Function).
I have a SAP IDES environment with 5 clients.
While I try to create a CR standard report use SAP OpenSQL, I entered 800 into Client field in u201CUser logon credentialsu201D. The connection can be created and I can get table list. After I built a report ,I can not get data from IDES client 800, but I can get data from client 000.
I am sure client 800 has data.I checked client 800 table with Tcord se16.
I also did other tests and felt confused a lot.
Even inexistent client, such as u201C00u201Dand u201C8000u201D can be used for creating connection.
I just want to know how can I get data from client 800.
Thanks for your kindly help!
Wayne

Dear Ingo,
Thanks for your reply!
I am not sure about your suggestion clearly. What's your mean all the authorizations to use CR?
Maybe I should clarify my operations.
I logon CR2008 as administrator and created two SAP connections with different client.
There is a table named "/BEV3/CHBALLG" be showed in these connections.
I checked clients "000" and "800" both have data in the table.
I can use client 000 connection create report and get right data, but the report base on client 800 connection could not get data.
If change to another table,such as "/SAPDMC/LSOFIL", I can get data both form these connections.
I found one thing is very weird. Client "00" and "8000" do not exist in my IDES environment, but I can use them for creating connection.
May I have your further suggestions?
Wayne

Now, my requirement is to store Dynamic question in user profile, i.e users can store his/her own custom question /answer.

Questions on SAP Business One 8.8

Hi,
We are downloading SAP 8.8 for internal preview before updating customer and would like to seek clarification after reading "What's new" pdf compare with the software.
1)It is mentioned 8.8 had basic multiple unit of measurement function but we did not see the difference between 8.8 with 2007A or 2005A. How to activate multiple unit of measurement?
2)Do we still need to install Crystal report add on inside 8.8 or it is integrated as single system like XL Reporter in 2007A? We thought it is integrated automatically once installed..
3)We thought after merging cluster A and B in 8.8 will mean we had more analysis codes to use beside project and profit center but we did not see additional analysis codes in OEC demo database.
Hope someone can clear the doubt.
Thank you
Regards
Thomas
Edited by: Paul Finneran on Oct 15, 2009 12:36 PM

Hi Thomas,
You have asked too many questions in one thread. Better only one. That is the forum rule.
For your question #2, the answer is yes. CR would be integrated to main application.
When you mentioned updating customer, I am afraid that may not be a good time since the new version is not released yet.
Thanks,
Gordon
