SAP Business Explorer (BEx), not BI

For clarification, in 2008, SAP used the term u2018business intelligenceu2019 in two ways:
SAP BusinessObjects BI solutions
SAP NetWeaver BI
In order to remove confusion, the term business intelligence is now associated only with the solutions from the SAP BusinessObjects portfolio.
SAP NetWeaver Business Intelligence (BI) is no longer used and instead we refer to the following:
SAP NetWeaver Business Warehouse (BW)
SAP Business Explorer (SAP BEx)
SAP NetWeaver BW Accelerator (BWA)
Therefore, this forum name should probably not refer to BI. We hope this helps clear up the confusion.

Hola esta información la he encontrado la he recolectado de la comunidad
BEx (Business Explorer) es la herramienta de informes que se utiliza para trabajar con datos en la base de datos BW. BEx tiene una interfaz de usuario basada en Web y está formado por dos componentes, el navegador BEx y el analizador de Bex.
El navegador BEx proporciona una interfaz organizada donde el usuario puede acceder y trabajar con cualquier tipo de documento que se les asigna en la bodega de Información Empresarial, tales como libros, enlaces e informes BW. La base de datos BW misma se divide en áreas de datos discretos llamados InfoCubos que se componen de los datos y los metadatos asociados. El analizador BEx permite al usuario examinar los datos segmentados en una variedad de combinaciones útiles, por ejemplo, al comparar los datos financieros de diferentes ejercicios.
Con esto el BEx es una herramienta de reportes para Inteligencia de Negocios usada para el Bussines Warehouse(BW), el WEBI es la herramienta de reportes usada por Bussines Object (BO), el Universe designer se usa para crear los universos en los cuales quieres tus fuentes de datos sacadas de una bodega como el BW.

SAP Business Explorer Analyzer Performance testing

Hi, All
I don't have any experience in SAP at all. So maybe I will ask silly questions.
I was asked to provide performance testing for SAP Business Explorer Analyzer. As you know it is Excel base application with ActiveX control from SAP. HP Loadrunner doesn't support such configuration (It can only work with SAPGUI). So I am forced to search for other possible solutions. So maybe here I can get ideas and opinions about options:
1. I asked SAP admins about possibility to do the same things what users do from BEx (query execution + some drill down in data) in SAPGUI, maybe with predefined parameters or with additional customization. Unfortunately I've got an answer that it isn't possible at all. Is it really?
2. Another idea is to simulate what users do in BEx with VBA since anyway Excel interacts with BEx engine via DBA. There I met another problem. There is no any documentation about ActiveX components (e.g. com.sap.bi.et.analyzer.addin.BExConnect) or API used in BExAnalyzer.xla. The question is "is it possible or not to fully automate all data manipulation with VBA" and "Where can I get documentation about SAP VBA API?"
Thanks,
Alexander

You can run the queries with drilldown using transaction rsrt in list mode and interact via standard screen functions
This won't however give you the WAN or the presentation server overhead (ie formatting of the cells with excel wrappers of styles)

E-Recruitment,Syncronization for Employee and Business Partner not working?

hi there,
i itend to create a business partner for employee in SAP E RECRUITMENT but when i run the report HRALXSYNC for an employee, the result i am getting is total blank. I suppose there should be some errors if it is not working properly, but the the screen after running the report is total blank.
are any prior settings must me meet before the business partners can be created using HRALXSYNC?
thanks you

HI Ravi
Requirements to use the report are the activation of the integration for buisness partner. You could get details from sap note 550055.
You have to switch on the following keys in table T77S0 with SM30:
Group    Sem. ID
HRALX   HRAC           to 'X' for global HR-Integration
HRALX   OBPON        to "ON" for activate the integration between organization object and business partner
HRALX   PBPON         "ON" for activation the integration between central perosn and business partner
Hope this helps.

SAP audio language not working for *any* channels. Useless tech already came out!

Just got the FIOS service this Friday.
I'm very happy with the internet. Very fast!
The TV, I'm not so happy about.
Having come from AT&T U-Verse, and Time Warner Cable before that, I've gotten used to having the HBO channel lineup (or any premium channels like Showtime/Cinemax/etc) and being able to easily switch between English and Spanish audio. So far, between 6 calls to customer service (each one of them telling me it's possible), and one extremely clueless tech that just left my home after only 5 minutes, I've not been able to do this.
I can SEE the option for SAP! I KNOW HBO offers Spanish audio for its' non-HBO Latino channels. I also know that not all movies have Spanish audio, but the majority of new HBO movies do.
A guy on the phone on Saturday had me convinced that to watch HBO channels with Spanish audio, I had to purchase your Spanish package that comes with extra Spanish channels. I thought this was ridiculous -- since I've already got a PREMIUM package, why in the world would I need to get another package to listen to that premium one in Spanish?! Anyways, I got the package and still no Spanish HBO.
The tech that came and left in 5 minutes changed the channel to HBO Latino and said, "Here, it's working". I pointed out that HBO Latino is not what I meant - none of the other HBO channels have Spanish, althought we could see they said SAP.
What gives, Verizon? This, coupled with the fact that I can't set my main DVR to record a show we're watching on an HD receiver in another room without physically going to the DVR itself (or using a cellphone app!) and that apparently I can only record 1 show on the DVR at a time, has me pining for AT&T... which I never thought would happen.
Hell, even Time Warner Cable's HBO lineup has Spanish.
Sounds to me like your all-fiber network isn't up to snuff on some very basic things.

skohly wrote:
Chill man
On your remote push the option button. Then click on audio language and change to spanish. You will be all set
We've been through that appx. 50 times with tech support - not working. Tech guy that came out today said Verizon doesn't offer SAP ... so I don't know what to think now.

Additional Fields for ESS-Business Card Not Working for Certain Countries

Dear Experts,
We were trying to configure the additional fields to be displayed in Business Card - Overview Screen for all countries. We don't have problem configure and get the new fields display for Malaysia (Molga = 14) but having problem for the field to display for Hong Kong (Molga = 27) and Singapore (Molga - 25).
The strange thing is I am following the same steps as I configured for Malaysia. Somehow it is not working for Hong Kong and Singapore. As I understand, there is only 1 place to configure in SPRO for this requirement:
Personnel Management -> Employee Self-Service -> Service-Specific Settings -> Own Data -> Customizing of Personal Information Screens -> Determine Fields for Business Card on Overview Screen
Please help!

Hi Siddhart,
Thank you for the information. We are currently in EhP3 with below Support Components installed.
Software Component: SAP_HR
Release: 600
Level: 60
Highest Support Package: SAPKE60060
Software Component: EA-HR
Release: 603
Level: 34
Highest Support Package: SAPK-60334INEAHR
The note 1159911 provided is within SAPK-60304INEAHR. Thus, I don't think this is the root cause of this inconsistency base on the Highest Support Package installed in our system.
Anymore hint? Anyone? Please...

Temporary Table In SAP Query - Does not Work?

Can anyone explain why this query does not work in SAP? It works fine on SQL but gives me this message in SAP:
1). [Microsoft][SQL Server Native Client 10.0][SQL Server]Incorrect syntax near ')'.
2). [Microsoft][SQL Server Native Client 10.0][SQL Server]Statement 'Service Contracts' (OCTR) (s) could not be prepared.

Chris,
There are several areas in your code which needed changes.
1. On the field name for your temp table you had spaces.
2. The SAP table name ODLN, OPCH, PCH1 had to be fully referenced like
[dbo].[ODLN]
3. You really need not have ## in front of your temp table, it could just be #
The select at the end is actually what causes the most problem as for some reason from within SAP it does not produce the result. I would suggest you put the whole code into a Stored Procedure and call the SP from SAP. Corrected SQL below. If you remove the Select line at the end the query would work with in SAP, but keep it give give you an error. SP is the best option for this.
DECLARE @date DATE
DECLARE @delrows INT
DECLARE @delquan INT
DECLARE @a INT
DECLARE @recrows INT
DECLARE @recquan INT
SET @a=0
IF object_id('tempdb..#tab') IS NOT NULL
BEGIN
   DROP TABLE #tab
END
CREATE TABLE #tab
[Date] date,
DeliveryRows varchar(40),
DeliveryTotalUnits varchar(40),
ReceiptsRows varchar(40),
ReceiptsTotalUnits varchar(40),
WHILE @a!=7
BEGIN
SET @date=DATEADD(day,-@a, getdate())
SELECT @delrows=ISNULL(COUNT(DLN1.LineNum),0), @delquan=ISNULL(SUM(DLN1.Quantity),0)

It appear always error message "Your client does not support opening this list with Windows Explorer"
Already installed FIX ( http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2846960)

Then Sign in to the SharePoint Online site with Keep me signed in option
But still dont work.
This happens in all libraries. This issue happens in our corporate intranet. I had this issue in another laptops but with the Microsoft FIX and following all that steps, it solved.
But for whatever reason now i have 2 machines that even after applying the same Fix and steps still continues not working.

Hi,
From your description, my understanding is that you cannot use “open with explorer” in 2 machines in your farm.
If you have installed Desktop Experience feature in your environment, please add your SharePoint Server(http://spserver) to Local intranet site with steps below:
Open “Internet Options” menu.
Click “Security” tab.
Click Sites.
Click Advance.
Enter your SharePoint Server, click Add.
Close and apply.
Restart your browser, and test your issue.

ZEN VISION M SERIES MEDIA EXPLORER NOT WORKING ON WINDOWS 7

Recently installed the much hyped windows 7. Installed my zen vision m. Everything is ok except media explorer is not working from the shortcut on the desktop or i can't find the exe in the creative folder file to get it started. All i get is "this filse does not have a program associated with it for performing this action.please install a program or,if one is already installed,create an association in the default programs control panel "
i can access the music & picture files as a hard drive folder.
Anyone any ideas?

My experience has been that the original software that came on CD with the Visionn M is not compatible with my new 64 bit Windows 7 OS but that the updated version availabloe for free download on the support site does work just fine. My remaining frustration (which appears unresolvable) is that unlike the original, the "new and improved" media explorer from the website?will only rip to WMA format and does not offer the MP3 option that was the core of the original program. I think this is incomprehensible and reprehensible for a device that is sold as an "MP3 player". I did not intentionally?buy an expensi've "WMA player" but thanks to Creative, I guess I ended up with one. I have bought literally a dozen Creative media players over the years for friends and family but this makes me so angry that I will never buy another.

People and Business Widget not working

I cannot get these to work; I get the following messages:
People: "Data Unavailable" and
Business: "No Results Found"
Please advise...
Imac,
Intel Core 2 Duo

These are Apple widgets that came bundled with dashboard. I used mine often now it's not working.
If Apple just disabled it with out so much as a heads up, that's not OK and not a way to treat loyal customers.

People and Business Widgets Not Working

Hi,
My people and business widgets have stopped working. Instead of having fields to enter name, zip, etc., there are blue boxes (that look like legos) with questions marks.
I have read elsewhere that this means a needed plugin is missing.
Removing and replacing the widgets doesn't help.
Creating a new user account doesn't help.
Deleting symbolichotkeys, dock, dashboard, dashboard.client, and widgets plists doesn't help.
I downloaded the 10.4.4 update and used Pacifist to extract just the people widget and placed it in both the system and user library/widgets folders. Didn't work.
I called apple care and they told me to make a posting here. I really hope someone can point me in the right direction!
Thanks in advance for you time.

Busy Search Not Working

Hey All - thanks for looking at the post...
I have GWE 7.0.1 Gateway up and running, but am unable to get busy search
to work in either direction.
From GroupWise to Exchange a free busy search is executed and I see it
logged in the GWE gateway logs, but nothing is returned to the GroupWise
client during the busy search even though there are appointments posted for
the day for the Exchange user(s).
From Exchange to GroupWise the busy search returns nothing. I have run
through the manual like 10 times and all configuration options have been
configured with the appropriate options. Anything I am missing that might
not be documented?

I have resolved the problems that I was having and wanted to share what I
found out. Turns out there was a bug in the 1/23/07 file version of the
exgate 7.0.1. A new version was given to me by Novell support, but I don't
know what the timestamp on the file is from novell b/c windows screwed it
up, but I don't see that's it's been released yet on downloads.
The bug was that you could not do a busy search from GroupWise to Exchange
if the primary SMTP namespace for the Active Directory users did not match
the Active Directory domain name. Basically, the gateway would try to
perform a busy search using an LDAP query on username@ADdomainname and
would fail if you gave your users an alternate primary SMTP namespace with
a recipient policy in Exchange.
Hope that helps someone b/c it took me about a week working with Novell to
get it figured out. The gateway support folks (still in the US thank
goodness) were awesome.
