SAP BI Tools
I am wandering if anyone knows anything about the BI toolsets from SAP and how it integrates with Essbase?

1. you'll need to extract data into BW, so you'll need to set up a Data Model for FI; then depending on which kind of reports, you'll need BEx Query Designer, BEx Analyzer, Report Designer, Web Application Designer or any of the BOBJ tools (or external party tools)
2. /
3. I personally would be fine with ABAP specs... basically what one needs to know is which data you wish to see in what format and how that data can be found in the source system... if calculations are necessary, those have to be delivered as well
Important is to determine the granularity of data

SAP Reports means Reading and displaying data or A method of outputting data for evaluatation.

Alternatives to SAP GRC Tool to monitor compliance & automatic provisioning
Hello Gurus,
Not sure if this would be the right forum to ask this but surely there exist tools in the market which are viable alternatives to the SAP GRC Tool. We are a large semiconductor firm and currently manage role assignments, user provisioning and auditing manually.It is a huge cost overhead and is labor intensive.
Looking at possible alternatives?
SAP GRC Tool is a strong contender but I am trying to weigh in other options with it and their comparisons.
To your minds, what would be the biggest advantage of implementing GRC versus any other third party tool? What is the distinctive edge it provides? This is also to help me build a strong business for pushing GRC to the management.
Appreciate any thougts/ideas/suggestions, at the earliest!! Much appreciated.
-Tan
Edited by: Tania Nijhawan on Jul 21, 2011 2:19 AMHi Tania,
GRC is a convenient grouping of solutions that have been developed and acquired over time. There are pros and cons in every application and no one can say that SAP GRC is 100% best and un comparable with any other compliance product in the market.
But, I can strongly say that GRC gels well with all the SAP flavours such as ECC and BI, and it is easy to implement, incorporate, and manage.
With the introduction of GRC 10, SAP is looking at more features and easy to manage compliance solutions. I bet you can't get A to B product comparision anywhere. I rather suggest you to look at the top ten features and advantages in different products in terms of deployment, adaptability, user friendlyness etc., and opt for the right one.

Make Business systems visible within SAP PI Tools
Hi!
I defined technical system and business system as well within SLD. Now I would like to see this business system within SAP PI tools (such as Integration Builder).
Question:
Which actions are requiered after the definition the technical and business system in order to work with these systems in SAP PI tools?
Is thers some documents describing this issue?
Thank you!Hi,
The order for without party is simple, just import it, then
1. Create configuration scenario
2. Assign this system to your scenario
3. Create communication channels
4. Create Sender Agreement, Receiver Determination, Interface Determination, Receiver Agreement
And for with party.
1. Create Party in Integration Directory
2. Assign business system to this party
Now when you create your scenario
1. Create configuration scenario
2. Assign this party and system to your scenario
3. Create communication channels
4. Create Sender Agreement, Receiver Determination, Interface Determination, Receiver Agreement
>>- Creation of Party
First
>>- Creation of Business component
Second
>>- Creation of Scenario
Third
>>- Assign Business system
Fourth
Hope now it is clarified.

I followed all the steps and found a workaround to set the local platform.

Kind regards,
PatriceHi Patrice,
The presentation is a bit confusing for me, but if you have the yellowish icons in new server wizard (Servers View > New Server), you are fine and you can continue.
basically after setting up your development environment, you have to be able to do this: https://help.hana.ondemand.com/help/frameset.htm?7613f000711e1014839a8273b0e91070.html

Hello All,
I am very new to WEB AS Java..Please tell me the differences between the SAP Java tools:
1. Configtool
2 SDM
3. Visual Administrator.Hi,
Basic Idea:
1) Configtool: A offline tool to administrate j2ee that means java not need to be up when you change any java parameter.it directly connect you to database and apply changes and you need to restart java server after applying chnages using configtool.
2) Visual Admin. A online tool to administrate java Server you can make changes only when JAVA serevr is up and it affects parameter changes dynamically.SAP tells you when you need to use which tool ou of config and Visual Admin
3) SDM(Software Deployment Manager) is to deploy and undeploy the business packages only one connection is possible at a time..So to deploy new packages and undeploy and number of other tasks are there you need to use SDM.
4) JSPM(Java Support Package Manager).This is used to apply SP to Java and as well as business packages it further use SDM to verify that package is suitable for system or not.
Better you explore your self it helps you a lot.........
Thanks &Regards,

I need to make few changes in UME properties for that I need to use/access SAP Configuration Tool. I need to know who (usually) have authority to access the same i.e. Basis, Consultants, ICT Lead etc.
Config Tool - Administration Manual - SAP Library
Any help in this regard would be highly regarded.
Thanks.Hi Sean,
Every Java instance 7.0 has Config Tool under this path (In >7.3 this tool in web based):
/usr/sap/SID/JC<instance number>/j2ee/configtool
You could get configtool folder to execute this tool remotely. You must configure hostname & port. You will need user administrator credentials.
From my understanding, common scenarios to have access to this tool:
- SAP Basis administrator / SAP NW Portal developers (Customer's employees)
- SAP Basis consultants / SAP NW Portal consultant (Depending on customer rules or if customer have outsourced administration to services partner).
Hope this helps,
Kind regards -
