SAP Enterprise Project Connection 2.0 in SAP ECC 6.0 EHP6
Hello experts,
Before describing any think let me tell u that i am very new to this field.
We are configuring SAP Enterprise Project Connection 2.0 in our SAP ECC 6.0 EHP6 .I have already installed ABAP add on for EPC in ECC system.
I have also installed trial version of primavera6 in another system.So now how can i connect my ECC system to Primavera6 through Enterprise Project Connection(EPC). I have gone through the installation guide for SAP Enterprise Project Connection 2.0 SP2.But i could not get any clear idea.
Any reply is helpful for me..
Thanks
DebasisHello Debasis,
Post EPC installation,you need to perform configuration of EPC through portal.You can see it listed under configuration--> configuration scenarios-->EPC.
During configuration you will be asked to define path of you primavera installation and a user on that system with sufficient permissions. This user is called APS user.
Try to do a mock configuration run on sandbox/dev system and then you can follow the guide.

Regarding SAP Enterprise Project Connection
Hi Experts,
I understand there is a connector available in the name of SAP Enterprise Project Connection to interface SAP PS/PM with Primavera. We are planning to use this. Have anyone came across this product ? How is the performance of this product and how much it costs ?
Thanks in advance.
Regards.

Enterprise Project Connection 2.0 - Architecture
Hi,
We are implementing EPC 2.0 to link between Oracle Primavera & SAP PM for turnaround scheduling. We have 1 ECC instance that used by different users from our offices around the globe. I couldn't find here SAP Enterprise Project Connection 2.0 – SAP Help Portal Page information about the architecture recommendation. For example, which is better :
Having 1 single EPC instance close to the ECC that is connected to 1 Primavera DB and the Primavera clients in all the regions access this DB that is colocated with ECC & EPC ? or
Having 3 EPCs, 3 Primavera DBs (in each region) and all these are connected to the single ECC instance.
Performance wise which is better ? is the 2nd option valid (many EPCs to 1 ECC) ?
We couldn't find answers to this.
Any help is appreciated.

BI content and SAP Enterprise portal connection
Hello All,
i m new to SAP enterprise portal , can anyone explain me the connection of BI content and Enterprise Portal.Please explain me the flow of publishing the Bi reports to EP.
Thnks in advc.HI Sonal,
For publishing BI reports in portal you need to Integrate BI into Portal.
Please refer to SAP Notes:
916950
937697
They are very helpful.
Procedure for publishing after integrating BI with portal:
For this you need to create Roles-Worksets-Pages---Ivews.
The name of the report which you want to be displayed in TLN you need to make a Role for that and the tab under that name you need to create worksets for that and the content of the report you need to create an ivew for that in this way your report will be displayed in portal also you need to righht click on the workset and <add workset to Role>and similarly for ivew also keeping entry point "YES" for a role is mandatory with the main report name in TLN and and the sub tabs under below it and the content indetailed navigation.
For publishing simply create a Role --workset and an ivew .
During creation of an ivew the wizard will ask you for a Query string that Query will be given to you by your BI people you just neeed to copy that query after ? mark and paste it in and then save it hence your report is published in portal.
This is basically the proceddure for publishing BI reports in portal. You can ask any doubts if you hae in this.

Compare Oracle Project Management and Primavera
Hi All,
We are using Primavera today and it is not integrated to Oracle.
We are also currently implementing Oracle Projects Management (R12.1.3) and trying to evaluate if Primavera can be replaced by Projects Management. Based upon my little experience with Primavera - I see some advantages of Primavera over Projects Management e.g.
a. Primavera is more user friendly than Oracle Projects Management.
Primavera: easy to create workplan; configurable views; generate reports with gantt charts
b. Primavera has scheduling engine to derive schedules based upon dates/duration/logic while Project Managment does not have it.
c. Gantt charts are better in Primavera than Oracle Projects Management.
Has anyone also done similar kind of analysis and evaluated the need of Primavera integration with Oracle Projects Management? I would appreciate if you can share your inputs.
Thanks,
NitinHi,
I have used both the product. For project management i would suggest to use primavera for the same reason u mentioned.
the only disadvanage in primavera is it is not integrated with ERP.
Now oracle provide a AIA PIP integration package to integrate Primavera with oracle Projects(Limited integration). Use primaver for Project managment and oracle for Project Costing and Billing

Oracle Project Analytics and Primavera
Hello Experts,
I would like to know whether Oracle Project Analytics supports Primavera?
Thanks,
~ AshProject Analytics only sources data from Oracle Projects in the eBusiness Suite. So, the only way that you would get planning information from Primavera into Project Analytics out-of-the-box is if you have integrated Primavera with Oracle Projects. Oracle now have a separate Analytics product for Primavera, "Primavera P6 Analytics".

Error #2032 when using SAP NetWeaver BI Connection
Hi,
I'm trying to use to new SAP NetWeaver BI Connection in Xcelsius SP2, but when I try to connect to a BEx Query, I receive error #2032.
I have a crossdomain.xml file in the Tomcat root of the BO-server, and the Adobe Global Security Settings are also filled in with all directories of my BO-server.
Has someone an idea why this error occurs, and how to solve it?
I'm working on Sap NetWeaver 7.0.1 SP5.
LievenWe are using in total 6 different clients with Xcelsius 2008 Enterprise SP2. With two of them we can use SAP NetWeaver BI Connection and do not receive any error. The rest is showing the error message #2032.
There is one difference between the systems which are working and the ones which are not:
After selecting the query in the BI NetWeaver Connection there is an additional popup "Windows security" appearing.
--> The server sapbw100.xxxx at BicsRemote/Config1 requires a username and password.
Filling in the username and password the data from the query appear in the xcelsius.
With the clients which provide an error there is no such popoup.
If we create on an existing installation an .xlf file and open it on one which is not working, the Data Managers show the correct connection. As soon as we click on refreshing data, error #2032 appears.
System configuration clients:
Windows XP and Windows 7
Office 2007
SAP Business Explorer Patch 1001
Regarding the working clients:
One is working on XP the other on Windows 7
Both on Xcelsius 5.2.0.0
Installing the FixPatch for SP2 is also not helping to solve the problem.
All the inputs in this thread have been tested but without sucess. Till now we could not install note 1380059 since related notes are not yet released. -
SAP Netweaver BI Connection in Xcelsius is not working
Hello,
we use Xcelsius Enterprise 2008 SP3 and we would like to connect to a BW Query directly (SAP BW 7.0 EHP1 SP6).
In Xcelsius I can choose Data > Connections > SAP Netweaver BI Connection and I can logon to the SAP system and then select the BW query.
But after that no query elements are shown in the Input and Output Values (nothing happens I just have empty Input and Output Values).
What can I do that I see the query elements?
Please help.
Thanks,
KarinHi,
The pdf in the following link clearly explains the required Autherization objects for XC on BW.

I want to create a custom enterprise project field and would like to use instead of for example a text attribute or a look-up table a field for employees (e.g. project manager) which are coming e.g. from the Active Directory. But when creating this custom
project field I cannot see such an option. What solution do you suggest as I want to avoid that everybody uses different names and spellings for e.g. the project manager and without having to fill the lookup table with all resources of the company.
Thank you so much for your help!Hi,
Are you using Proejct Server 2007, 2010, 2013?
In case you're working with 2010 version, here is an excellent
blog about how to insert a resource picker in a PDP (project detail page).
Hope this helps,

Universe based on SAP HANA OLAP connection
Can I create universe based on SAP HANA OLAP connection ?
How can i access SAP HANA view which was created using OLAP connection in WEBI and Dashboard? It does not allow creating Universe on top of SAP HANA OLAP connection and give an error.
SAP BusinessObjects query and reporting applications can directly connect to OLAP SAP HANA connections. No universe is required, only a published OLAP SAP HANA connection.
ThanksOLAP connection are only meant for tools that make use of OLAP connectivity only like BEx ..and HANA analytic views and calculated views are also treated as OLAP cubes for them..
So these connection is only available with analysis product like Analysis Office (which is meant to be used with Bex or OLAP cubes ) and Design studio which is again mainly built around OLAP paradigm..
You can not create a universe or Webi on Olap connection on HANA as of now.. However it could be like exposed in a future release of BO which is not public yet... -
SharePoint 2013 and SAP connectivity / SAP Gateway for Microsoft and Duet Enterprise 2.0
Hello,
we are investigating the connection possibilities of SharePoint 2013 with SAP.
The basic scenario in our cases involves the transfer of documents and/or metadata from SharePoint to SAP possibly through a Workflow in SharePoint.
From my research the most promising official (no 3d-party) interfaces that can be used are the Duet Enterprise 2.0 and the SAP Gateway for Microsoft.
From my understanding both interfaces allow only the consumption of Data from SAP to SharePoint and not vice versa. Moreover the interoperability of documents seems not be supported. Are CRUD operations from a SharePoint native lists to SAP supported?
Can someone please clarify this topics?
I have found lots of documentation concerning the interfaces but not a clear answer to this questions.
Many thanks in advance!
IoannisHi Ioannis,
It seems that there is no built in method to get data from SharePoint list in SAP.
As a workaround, we can export SharePoint list to excel and then use that spread sheet as a source data in SAP.

As this issue is regarding to SAP, I recommend you to ask the question in the SAP:

More experts will assist you, then you will get more information relation to SAP.

Configure SSO Connection from SAP Enterprise Portal to BOE Server
Hi Guys,
We recently installed a BOE Server and want to connect it to our SAP Enterprise Portal. What we need is just to display the Crystal Reports via Enterprise Portal. We have set up the following:
SAP EP with AD Authentication
SAP EP configured with SNC to SAP BI7 system
SAP BOE XI 3.1 - SAP Integration Kit
BOE Server configured with SAP Authentication via SAP BI7 System
We've also set up BOE IK iviews and URL iviews pointing to existing reports in BOE. However, when we access it from EP, it prompts for a username and login to BOE. Is there a way to configure these so that there is no prompt for login to BOE server and SSO is used? Is it also possible to have a service account (e.g. domain/crystal) that will run the reports in BOE everytime a user accesses a report from SAP EP?
Let me know if this is at all possibleHi,
You should configure InfoView for SSO first, which required infoview.xml file modification, using windows AD default authentication. If you want to utilize the OpenDocument URL for iView then you also need to configure OpenDocument.xml file for SSO also. The SAP portal must have trust relation with the SAP BW server so the Windows AD token can be authenticate with SAP BW server.
If you want crystal user to run all the report then you will lose data security. It can be done by hard coding user name and password in the report properties and database logon but the SSO capability can be accomplished only by windows AD, SAP or LDAP.
For more details check BOXI Admin guide and SAP Integration Guide.
Thanks,
Muhammad
