SAP CRM 7.0 and SAP Enterprise Search

Hello,
I need your help. We want to use enterprise search in our demo system (CRM 7.0). I use the Web dynpro application ESH_ADMIN_UI_COMPONENT. However, when indexing we get the following errors:
Data of NW authorization objects could not be indexed
The implementing class does not support the iterator by time interface
Indexing ended with error
Indexing of complete objects from type USER_AUTHORITY has returned 5.508 NameServer error: no servers found IndexId:esh:cr7
Multi-index call of index ESH:CR7100CR7100USER_AUTHORITY~USER_AUTHORITY has returned 5.508: NameServer error: no servers found IndexId:esh:cr7
Indexing ended with error
best regards,
Wim Olieman

Hi,
Please check the TREX version. TREX version MUST be version 7.1 not 7.0.
For further details see also note 1266024.

SAP Enterprise Search - Federation

Greetings,
This post is with regards to "Federation" when is comes to SAP Enterprise Search. Can you please explain what "Federation" is?
Regards,
Keith

Hi Keith,
"federation" means that SAP NetWeaver Enterprise Search consumes an existing search service. As a synonym for "federation" one could use either "meta search" or "brokered search".
In the case of federation the search index is not located on the SAP NetWeaver Enterprise Search server, but is owned by some other application, located on some other host. SAP NetWeaver Enterprise Search sends a query to that host (using the [OpenSearch|www.opensearch.org] protocol) and receives results that are then displayed together with the results from the local index. This concept works both ways, as SAP NetWeaver Enterprise Search 7.2 can act as consumer as well as provider in federated scenarios.

Download of SAP Enterprise Search

Hi experts,
Does anyone know how to download SAP Enterprise Search?
I know that it has been removed from SDN. But I'd like to know if anyone knows any other link to download it.
Thanks and best regards,

Hi Karsten,
I have some comment on this issue:
1-I know that the download is a very slim preview but we have group about new technologies in SAP world, and I believe that this preview would give us an idea about what SAP Enterprise look like. Screen shots are not enough
2- I also believe that any other site can't offer a download link for SAP Enterprise Search.. I tried to mean that there could be a new link that I do not know offered by SAP.
Thank you for your replies.

SAP-DMS and NetWeaver Enterprise Search 7.2

Good day Experts,
I will be thankful to you if anyone can help me with the following query.
In SAP-DMS, we have got a reporting transaction CV04n which has got a facility to search for 'Text Search Within Original'. There is neat procedure if one wants to configure this feature for SAP-DMS. The procedure is as under
(Re: Document text search in cv04n with TREX)
1) Transaction: SRMO
Install TREX search engine, and create RFC destination to connect to
TREX.
2) Transaction: SKPR06
Check the flag to Document Area "DMS" to utilize this document area for
document search.
3) Transaction: SE38
Run the report program "RSTIRIDX_REINDEX" to create Index.
Also, run the report program "RSTIRIDX" to create Index as well.
4) SPRO IMG customizing; (Create MIME Types)
Cross-Application Components > Document Management System > General
Data > Settings for Storage Systems > Create MIME types for full
text search, Enter MIME type such as "application/msword",
"application/pdf".
5) Then, test retrieval document search using
Transaction: SKPR07.
Enter Document Class "DMS_PCD1", Language "EN", Document Class "DMS",
and try "TEST search".
We know from Karsten's SDN post (What is really 'SAP Netweaver Enterprise Search' ) that this feature is possible with NW Enterprise Search 7.2
u201CWith SAP NW Enterprise Search 7.2 having collected the Embedded Search indexes, the local search functionalities stay active and at the same time SAP NW Enterprise Search enables central search access to all Embedded Search systems in the landscape.u201D
Our query is as under
Does SAP NW Enterprise Search 7.2 ; which has got its own integrated TREX engine needs assistance from TREX engine from our landscape to make this feature work. This is important becuase then we have to have two different set ups.
A set up for SAP NW Enterprise Search 7.2 which is a separately licensed product.
A set up for TREX engine which is part of NetWeaver licence.
Regards,
Sham Bapat

Good day Sham!
The answer is:
No, you will not need the local PLM TREX anymore, as soon as you have installed SAP NWES 7.2 and pointed your PLM there instead of the local TREX.
And, I repeat, your local search functionality inside PLM will still work anyway.
Best, Karsten

Would your company like to pilot SAP Enterprise Search?

SAP is interested to find a limited number of customers who would like to pilot enterprise search based on Argo and NetWeaver. You'd have to be willing to participate, contribute, and help define the product. Pilots can begin very quickly. We should be able to work with any version 4.6C or higher of R/3 or mySAP. Interested parties should reply to this thread, or contact me privately.

Dennis,
I am very much interested in this project.

PLM 7 and Netweaver Enterprise Search

We installed PLM 7.0. We also had an existing TREX server and we set that up to do indexing in ABAP. Now we have a requirement to use PLM UI on the portal and we need the search results to display there. All the docs I have read are basically saying we have to use Netweaver Entrprise Search for any search to work within the portal. Can anyone confirm this? Or maybe does anyone know if its possible to display search results in the portal just using TREX and embedded search.
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thanks for your help in advance.

HI Storm,
We are in the same decision making for moving from TREX 7.0 to 7.1 with Enterprise Search Functionality as we are planning to go for SAP PLM 7.0.
We have gone thru no of documents & presentation which suggest to go for TREX 7.1 for SAP PLM 7.0 (which is access able thru EP or using the NWBC) to take advantage of the Enterprise search functionality.
you can reffer to following notes
SAP Note 1164979
SAP Note 1266024

Categorize and filter enterprise search result

Hi All,
I want to know if it is possible to categorize and filter search result based on source (ex: list or library name or external content type etc). My client does not have FAST server license.
If this is possible with enterprise search without the FAST server could you please let me know how to achieve it.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Rahul

Hi Rahul,
We could sort search results in Search center, and we need modify XSLT for search result web part.
Here are similar issues for your reference:

Can I configure Enterprise search to search a Relational database

We have several legacy web applications. We are currently using coveo to search the relational databases. We create mapping xml file for the coveo indexing services. The coveo access the database using jdbc. It provides the ability to create uri for search result. The uri is invoked when the user clicks on search result.
Can I setup something similar with SAP Enterprise search.

Hi:
SAP NetWeaver Enterprise Search contains an SAP NetWeaver BI instance within the architecture on the appliance. You can utilize the BI features to extract data from your relational DataBase, then index that data into the TREX part of ES. BI features both "DB connect" and "UD Connect", which give you techiques to connect the BI system to an external DataBase and extract data. You will need to model a DataSource, but the features of SAP NetWeaver 2004s BI make this relatively easy. Once you have a datasource, you can create an Open Hub destination for indexing (with a transformation and DTP to deliver the data), and create a process chain to extract and index the data.
ES offers numerous DataSources "out of the box" for extraction from SAP ERP systems, you could follow the business content structure for those, but instead use DB connect or UDconnect to get the data from a non-SAP system.
For more info on this, see the BI area of SDN and help.sap.com > NetWeaver > Key Capability > Information Integration > BI.
Thanks for any points you choose to assign (they are the way of saying thanks on SDN).

HANA hardware instead of Business Warehouse Acellarator in the Enterprise Search scenario

Hello SAP experts,
we have a use case at the Australian Department of Human Services where we
want to try out SAP Enterprise Search but have no BWA hardware. Instead we have HANA boxes.
Can we use HANA hardware for the functionality the Business Warehouse Acellarator in the Enterprise Search scenario delivers (Trex indexing , Snapshot queries)?
Thanks for a quick answer...
Cheers
Oliver Buschmann

Hi Oliver,
in generally it should be possible. However in the BWA case it could be hardware dependend . You can prove if your HANA box is fine for BWA installation using the checkBIA.py script which is a part of the BWA installation. Or you can just put the information about your HANA hardware here and we check it for you.

Mikhail

MDGM WEB UI Enterprise search details

Hello,
I'm integrating PLM Enterprise search and MDGM enterprise search in PLM 7. I would like to know the technical details of MDGM search...
I want to know the Result class name, Key class name and Config ID related to MDGM enterprise search... Thanks!!
Regards,
Saravana

One new learning is that.... During the connector creation, We didn't get the PLMWUI as the selection possibility in software component....
The reason for not getting the PLMWUI as selection possibility at the creation process of your Connectors at the ESH_COCKPIT transaction, because we had created the connector MDG or with the MDG connector underneath. This connector is on top of the software component SAP_APPL and the PLMWUI connector is also on top of the software component SAP_APPL. Parallel working of these connectors were restricted by SAP.
Now, Workaround was given by SAP. New Header Sotware Component was created. MDG and the PLWUI Software Component were put underneath.

SAP CRM 7.0 and Enterprise Portal

Dear SAP Gurus ,
I have question about the New CRM WEB UI and integration to SAP Enterprise Portal .
We have been using the SAP Enterprise portal for accesing the SAP CRM functionalities before (eg create Opporutnites and Sales Order ). But with the New SAP version(7.0 and 2007 ) its possible to have its own portal.
Now the question is it possible to integrate the NEW SAP WEB UI into the existing portal ? Eg: If we want to have link in Enterprise portal with the Sales Order create functionalyt direlty without going into the stand alone CRM WEB UI . Would it be possible to directly call the Sales order service WEB UI in enterprise portal . Right now what we see is that the NEW CRM WEB UI is stand alone and for these type of fuctionalites the user need to login to the NEW web ui and then go to the create sales order screen .
Is it possible to directly embed the new UI components in the existing SAP enterprise portal ?
Many Thank for your kind advise !
Best Regards,
Ankur

Ankur,
Once you have correctly integrated to Portal following the SAP Note, you will no longer see the CRM Navigation. They will be Portal Navigation. If you have read and understood the note, it will be clear. On an overview, let me explain the steps involved.
1. You create a CRM role (based on some job role) say "Sales Rep" and have configured the CRM Web UI for all the navigation and applications. Like Account maintenance, Opportunities, Sales order create etc. etc.
2. Following the note and running a CRM transaction, you will now "Export" this CRM role to an external file. This file is very similar to a "business package". All the portal roles, pages, iVeiws etc. get created.
3. You will now "Import" this into your portal. Again follow the notes to know the loaction.
4. In the portal, you will assign this "portal role" to your users.
When these users log on to portal, they will see Portal Navigation (not the CRM navigation). So, the main point lies in defining the CRM role and get it working.
Hope you get the point....

Enterprise Search using Sharepoint Server 2007 + SAP R/3

Hi experts,
I want to achieve an enterprise search using SharePoint Server 2007 (MOSS).
SharePoint includes the BDC (business data catalog) which allows you to communicate with the SAP System.
I read in the Microsoft whitepapers that thereu2019s a need for a web application server 6.40.
So here is the problem:
We have SAP R/3 Enterprise 4.7 with WAS 6.20. We donu2019t want to change or upgrade the SAP system.
There are ways to connect the WAS to the R/3 system e.g. RFC.
But does this still work for search in SharePoint?
Did anybody already deal with this problem?
Any other ideas connecting SharePoint to SAP in this scenario?
Best regards
Philipp Detemple

> and having requirement to upgrade OS version from B.11 to B.23. Currently server is hosting SAP R/3 Enterprise version.
So you upgrade HP-UX 11.11 to HP-UX 11.23?
> I have tried to serach SAP service market place for PAM, but could not find specific information on version upgrade from B.11 to B.23
Yes - because there is no HP-UX 23.x, only 11.23 and 11.31. For the version overview check
Note 939891 - HP-UX: End of Support Dates
Note 1075118 - SAP on HP-UX: FAQ
> My Questioin is: If we copy system as it is to new host and if we keep the same Kernel Patch 196, will it work fine or give issue?
It will work.
> So even if I got for latest patch 304 which is released on 16.11.2009, still the OS version for which it built is B.11, so if we have B.23, will it work? I would not see the possibilities of kernel upgrade at this stage.
Why no possibility for a kernel upgrade if you install a new server?
> so with same kernel will it work? What else I need to check for the migration and make sure that everything works fine on new server.
Check

Usefulness of the SAP Netweaver Enterprise Search

I posted this question in the SAP Netweaver Enterprise Search forum and got no response, so I moved it to the ABAP General forum, where I got a little help, but not exactly what I'm looking for, so as a last attempt, I'm moving it here:
We are upgrading from 4.7 to ECC 6.0 and as part of the upgrade are considering implementing the Netweaver Search Engine. Most of the information I have found is from SAP and deals mainly with implementation. Im interested if you have implemented this and if so what benefits you have found and also any problems you have encountered.
There's a lot of tecnical information out there, but the question I need to answer is about how it helps (if at all) the business process.
Thanks for any help you can provide.
Rob

I attended a session at TechEd about how Whirlpool implemented the Enterprise Search Appliance (I assume it is that you are talking about). From what I saw it looked quite good. They seemed to think that the biggest gain was the linking of things. E.g if you search for a customer and select it, you have links to see their sales record / credit checks etc.
But I'm afraid I haven't done any implementations myself.
