SAP BODS 4.2 Designer Crashes/Disappears

Hi Team,
Came across a weird issue of BODS Designer Client disappearing while trying to login. It could be noticed that it happens when the SQL Server Management Studio is already running..Does anybody faced the same ? any solution/work around for the issue?
Any input is appreciated!
Regards,
Manu

Hi Daya
I am not able to trace the "DSUserConfig.txt " as mentioned in document. I did search for the file on system and could not find any.
We are facing slowness when we open designer and takes about 3-5 min (sometimes) to create a new job.
Is there a workaround for this?
Regards

Using the Execute Preloaded Option for ABAP Dataflows in SAP BODS

Hello All,
This is regarding the use of Advanced Option in SAP Application Type (ECC) Datastore settings in SAP BODS 4.2, where there are two options to select from for ABAP Execution Option property: (1)Generate and Execute and (2) Execute Preloaded. Since our ECC client is often locked by BASIS team even on DEV environment, we would like to make use of the second option 'Execute Preloaded' so that we could extract the data from ECC tables without having to ask the BASIS team to unlock the ECC client every time before extraction.
The problem is that we are getting an error upon generating and uploading the ABAP program to ECC client. I have searched the blogs and so far I have only found that there are certain ABAP programs or function modules that come with SAP BODS which need to be installed by BASIS team on ECC side to allow the ABAP dataflows to be generated and uploaded to ECC server. I would appreciate it if anyone could provide a list of which function modules BASIS needs to install on ECC or a blog that provides details around using this option.
So far, from the SAP BODS designer, we are performing below steps but getting an error upon generating and uploading the ABAP dataflow program:
1. Create a test ABAP Dataflow using SAP ECC datastore. Provide the ABAP program options.
2. Right click, select Generate ABAP Program.
3. Once the ABAP Program Generation Dialog box appears, check the box "Upload Generated Program".
4. Upon clicking OK, we are getting the following error:
The ABAP program <ZRTEST01> for ABAP data flow <RT_TEST_R3> (datastore <R3_DS>) was not uploaded: < RFC CallReceive error <Function /BODS/RFC_ABAP_INSTALL_AND_RUN: RFC_ABAP_MESSAGE- Exception condition "NOT_SUPPORTED_BY_GUI" trigger[SAP NWRFC 720][SAP Partner ### ][clientname][servername][accountname][4103]>. >.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Rizwan

All,
The BASIS team reviewed steps provided in the BODS document and attempted to install the Function Modules but now none of the BODS jobs would work. All BODS jobs are being terminted with the Syntax Error error when extracting data from ECC using ABAP dataflows:

Hi Rajeev Parimi,
Create a RFC connection in SAP Data Services Management Console for your SAP APO.
Provide required details.
Log into your SAP APO
Provide T-Code SM59
Create a RFC connection. Provide Registered Server Program name(RFC ProgramID Created In DS Management Console).
Save the connection and then test the connection.
Now log into Data Service Designer
Go to Local Object Library and select Datastores Tab.
Right Click and Select New
Then select Data Transfer Method as RFC and provide your RFC Name.
Provide all the required fields.
select OK
Note: RFC Data Transfer Method is available from SAP BODS 4.1 Version

Best UI? - SAP BODS

Hi Experts..
I need a guidence regarding the best UI which can be used with SAP BODS.
For eg: Suppose i have a an interface and an user can input two values a and b.
The sum (a+b) and difference(a-b) should caluculate in BODS and the output should be displayed in the UI with the correct values.
Which is the best one i can use with BODS.I have only small functions to be created inside SAP BODS. Like Sum, Avg, Diff, Conversion etc...
Please suggest.
Regards,
Dhanya

Hi,
You can provide the input values to BODS job either from BODS Designer or Management Console or Remote system Call. Still not clear please brief your requirement

I can´t edit the text files with SAP BODS 3.2

Hello
I can not edit some text files 9-20 megabytes to replace two words in each file, the source is a text file and the same destination but with different name, because with the same name have been unable . My idea is to remove the original and stay with the new performing edition but that if he does , let me file this way:
SALES_ORDERS_FULL_20140223_150051_006.xml ( ORIGINAL )
should leave it with me so : SALES_ORDERS_FULL_20140223_150051_006.xml _OLD (AMENDED )
but strangely leaves me so :
MICROSOFT_SQL_SERVER_KCC-BI_REPO_KHSA_XI_REPO_KHSA_XI_1543_5434_2_3_Long_INVOICES_INCREMENTAL_20140225_034004_001_xml_dat.txt (not deseased)
The type of data you use is long since varchar not allow me because it cuts my data file , use varchar (50000000) but takes the information and short .
I am using long data type , modify the file and I pass the name of the text files of sap bods for global variables. They are a series of files that are called by a while loop
Thanks for your answers
regards

HIr
Yes, first I convert long_to_varchar for edit, and convert varchar_to_long.
I edit before before and later
Thanks

Thanks Pedja
I've tried the given solution and it works.
I don't want to use an external jdk, because i could have some jdk version problems.
On 3 other computers Jdeveloper 11g works fine.
Just download form oracle.com unzip,run jdeveloper.exe and start working working.
No need to change the JDK.

Is SAP BODS the best ETL tool for a complex BI Environment

Hi All
We are in the process of rationilising our BI / Analytics environment.
We currently have SAP ECC6 as our ERP system, SAP BW as our Warehouse and BO for WEB and Dashboard fron ends. In additon we have a small instance of COGNOS which is largely fed with flat file loads but some Oracle and ECC6 data.
In addition we are evaluating Big data solutions with Teradata the current lead.
We are in danger of having multiple ETL tools associated with the main BI applications and so we are comparing SAP BODS with IBM Datastage with a view to slecting one of them as our only ETL tool.
Does anyone have any compatability information for SAP BODS with Cognos and Teradata? The main function required would be extracting from ECC6 into SAP BW, Cognos and Teradata.
Thanks
Jerry

Hi Jerry,
Cognos is a presentation tool so no worries as far integration is concerned.
As far teradata is concerned, kindly see the following doc:

Scripts in SAP BODS 4.0

Hi Everybody,
Can i use Scripts as is in SAP BODS 4.0?
Recentaly we have installed new version on SAP BODS 4.0 from SAP BODS 3.1. We have migrated all the related jobs, datastores and all the related stuff.
When i try to validate one job in new version then at scripts, i was getting an error on using SQL() functions.
While working on the function in scripts, do we need follow any procedure?
Please let me know.
Thanks,
Mohammed.

Check whether you have the rep_funcinfo.atl under "C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Data Services\Admin\Repo" folder.
If not then bring that atl file in the specified folder.
I hope, it will work.

DS Designer crashes when attaching UDC repo

Hi,
Have just installed DS 3.2 SP2 on windows 2008 R2.
We have deployed the DS software on a server different from the server holding the SQL server repositories.
DS Designer is installed on desktops.
We have created a cleansing package repository and are now trying to attach the repository (using "manage connection") in the DS designer.
But when attaching the Designer crashes.
Not sure if it has any relevance, but we installed the SQL server native client on the client desktops to ensure proper connectivity to SQL server DBs and repositories.
More relevant could be the fact that we had to install the cleansing package on a client to seed the cleasning package repository. When running the repository manager on the server we are not able to create the repository, even if we have installed the 64 bit SQL server cnative client software. The repository manager simply replies that the repository we have specifed does not exist (Which is right), and then terminates (instead of creating the repository).
But as mentioned the repository was eventually created by using repository manager on a desktop client.
Regards
Thomas

SAP BODS Licensing

Hello Everyone,
Its a very specific question about SAP BODS Licensing.
Version can be 3.1 / 4.0 /4.2
I tried to find this information from different sources in Google but not able to get any proper information.
Actually we are trying to figure out how many license we need.
The plan is :
EnvironmentInfrastructure capability
Development(20 repositories)·         15-16 developer repositories.
One per developer.·
One central repository for version control.·
3-4 backup repositories for any ad-hoc needs.
=======================================
Test - Component Testing(4 Repositories)·
2 main repositories for executions.·
2 backup repositories for any ad-hoc needs.
===========================================
Test - Integration Testing(6 Repositories)·
3 main repositories for executions.·
3 backup repositories for any ad-hoc needs.
===========================================
Test - Dress Rehearsal(4 Repositories)·
2 main repositories for executions.·
2 backup repositories for any ad-hoc needs.
============================================
Production Environments(2 Repositories)·
1 main repository for executions.·
1 backup repository for any ad-hoc needs.
Thank you

All the comments above are helpful.
But still I am stuck in few places to define the licensing for BODS
1. If we say it depends on CPU core, then how to define how many cores will be required?
2. Is the calculation is on volumentrics of data that will pass through BODS, if yes what will be the calculation?
3. If I derive the number of cores, how to derive the number of CPU licenses for BODS?
***NOTE: Is there any formula to calculate***
