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.

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
SAP Note 1249465
thanks

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.

SAP NetWeaver Enterprise Search fails to install on VMWare

Hello,
i try to install SAP NetWeaver Enterprise Search 7.2 from
SLES-10-SP3-SAP-APL-x86_64-GM-DVD1.iso with VMWare Player.
The installation fails at point where i have to choose the location of SAP NetWeaver Enterprise Search.
Here are several options for device://, nfs://, ftp://, usb://, etc.
Because of VMWare i am not sure if i can select them.
1. Is it a must to select at this point of installation the NW ES 7.2? can i do it later on?
2. Why do i have to choose SLES 10 at this point? must i do this?
best regards,
Eduard

Hi Eduard,
regarding your both questions:
1. Is it a must to select at this point of installation the NW ES 7.2? can i do it later on?
The easiest way is to select the installation path of the source files of NWES at this point.
But you can do it as well later but you have to adjust by your own the installation config file "config.dat". This config file is needed by the appliance installer of NWES 7.2
2. Why do i have to choose SLES 10 at this point? must i do this?
Yes. You have to choose SLES 10. This is the only operation systems which is supported by NWES.
Best regards
Frank

so how to install content server on windows server 2003.
How to connect DMS and content sever?
How to access document ?
please help.
Thanks,
Dipak.

Hi Ricardo,
1. By using T-code DC10-Document type creation:- you will create Document type first.
a. create document type
b. define status if you need.
c. Object Linking- if you want document attach to SAP object then you need to configure by using same T-codeDC10.
and please go through below link:
http://help.sap.com/printdocu/core/print46c/en/data/pdf/CADMS/CADMS.pdf
2. You want to Store document into SAP database/file system/SAP Content Server.
a. you need to decide first where you will store document.
suppose you select store into SAP Content Server then you need to select KPRO check-box in DC10. then you need to create Content repository by using OAC0 tcode an create storage Category in OACT transaction.
b. suppose you want to store into File system then you need to configure Data Carrier in DC20 T-Code.
c. if you want to store SAP Database then also you need to Content repository same like SAP content Server in OAC0 tcode and select storage type as SAP DATABASE.
and then create storage category.
if you have any query please let me know
Thanks,
Dipak.

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.

Talent Management - Talent Search and Enterprise Search

Hi All,
We are on ECC 6, Portal 7 SP3.
We are using Talent Management Business Package. Under Talent Management-> Talent Information, there is an iView called Talent Search(which is based on the Webdynpro ABAP "hrtmc_search").
For this Search functionality I have read that SAP Netweaver Enterprise Search is needed.
My question is:
1. Is TREX required for Talent Search. I've read that it can be integrated with Enterprise Search. Please note that we are not using KM and Collaboration.
2. Is it necessary to integrate AS Java with Enterprise Search since it will only be used for Talent Search iView which is in any case a webdynpro abap application.
So in this case Enterprise Search will only be integrated with AS ABAP / ERP system - Is this assumption correct.
Your input and help is much appreciated..
RD

Hi RD,
the TREX you will need for this will be specific to HCM and called via HCM's own strategy in ECC 6.0. This - for all I know - should be through AS ABAP for indexing and AS Java for searching.
This should have nothing to do with the Portal's access to TREX, as the functionality is HCM's, even if provided to Portal in an iView. For the specifics, please check your HCM Master Guide and other documentation and/or discuss with your technical consultant for ECC 6.0.

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.

Full text search in Filenet via SAP DMS

Hello experts,
Hopefully you can help me with the following. My customer has SAP DMS and uses FileNet (v4.0) as content repository. They use Verity as tool for full text search (SAP and non-SAP). Verity has it's own user interface / search screen. Question is if it is possible for SAP (easy)DMS users to do full text search (via CV04N or EasyDMS searchscreen) and search in the FileNet repository (directly with TREX or via Verity). The customer has the ACSAP connector up and running.
I've implemented TREX with SAP content server and index server before, but I'm not familiar with FileNet possibilities in that area, so hopefully someone has experience with this?
thanks in advance, Erwin

Dear NAG
For text search you have activate TREX Server
follow the steps
Set TREX
A:- Transaction: SRMO
Install TREX , and create RFC destination to connect to
TREX.
B:- Transaction: SKPR06
Check the flag to Document Area "DMS" to utilize this document area for
document search.
For Indexing
A: Transaction: SE38
Run the report program "RSTIRIDX_REINDEX" to create Index.
Also, run the report program "RSTIRIDX" to create Index.
Set mime type for the text search
A: SPRO --
Cross-Application Components > Document Management System > General
Data > Settings for Storage Systems > Create MIME types for full
text search,
Enter MIME type like
"application/msword",
"application/pdf".
Retrive document via Test Search
A: Then, test retrieval document search using
Transaction: SKPR07.
Enter Document Class "DMS_PCD1", Language "EN", Document Class "DMS",
and try "TEST search".

Is SAP MDM master data search possible through Enterprise Search?

Hi Everyone
I was looking at finding if the SAP MDM master data search is possible through Enterprise Search?
Is so, Please provide a bit of technical guide on the same.
Regards
Navneet

Hi Navneet,
first releases of SAP NetWeaver Enterprise Search featured a preliminary connector to federate SAP MDM's search functionality. However, as no object level access authorization control could be implemented on the current MDM APIs, we have discontinued to deliver that prototype connector. We will be back with access-authorization-controlled connectivity in one of the future releases.

SAP NW enterprise Search for windows

Hello All,
Can anybody clarify on the same can we install SAP NW enterprise Search 7.0 EH4 on windows Environment. I found in the documentation it only supports Unix right now.
Mani

Check

Starting on page 75 you'll see that it's an appliance (not a piece of software to install).

Queries on Enterprise Search

Hi,
I have started learning abt Enterprise Search. I have some queries on it. Pls clear my doubts.
1. It has been said that, "SAP NetWeaver Enterprise Search is delivered as an appliance with the software preinstalled on dedicated hardware"
So, once necessarily needs to by the hardware to use Enterprise Search or this is just another option ? if possible some detailed explanation on it.
2.Are there some reference customers for this product ? and generally who is reference customer for a product?
3.What versions of SAP does it support ? R/3 4.6, etc.
/* points assured*/
Regards,
Art Tech.
Edited by: Art Tech on Jan 2, 2008 8:33 AM

Hi Art Tech,
I am glad that my response helped
There are customers already in rampUp but I am not aware of any details about the customers.
Regarding you query on extending the connectivity, two types of connectivity is possible.
1. Connecting to a search service provider (delegate the search to a web search engine like Google for example)
2. Connecting to a search data provider (in this case, we have to do data extraction and indexing in addition to searching)
With SAP Netweaver Enterprise Search 7.0 the first type of extension is quite easy. For the second type of extension, you would need to use say TREX to do indexing and then delegate searching to the connector and this is not provided out of the box with the product.
ERP2005 provides a search service called SES (Search Engine Services) and we utilize SES to connect to ERP2005. Since this is not available in ERP2004, we donot provide any default connectors to ERP2004 business objects.
Hope this helps.

Reghu

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).
