Hi,

Im not able to read it ... but maybe here somebody knows and can tell me what gartner thinks specially of PI.
If you don't now something about the report. I'm intrested in personal opinions as well.
Does an Investment from Customer side into PI makes sense, is there a long term strategie from SAP for PI.
The same for developers .... what you think about the PI consultants future?
I now there are already some simliar threads... but i didn't find something special to these gartner report.

Changing Finder View settings to Columns - past, present and future files?

Please, please, please, and possibly please. Could anyone explain to me what I must do to open all my folders and files in Finder as columns. I never want to see another "list" or worse, "icon" when I open a finder window. Is this possible and if so how? This is not a quick lazy question but something that I have searched and searched for over the last 5 years since I dumped Windows for Mac but so far to no avail.
If there is any kindness out there please throw some my way and lead me out of darkness into the light of a List and Columns free Finder window/screen.

Hi TeeBar, and a warm welcome to the forums!

Difference between SAP NetWeaver Gateway 2.0 and SAP NetWeaver Gateway productivity accelerator for Microsoft

Hi Experts ,
Can anyone tell me the difference between SAP NetWeaver Gateway 2.0 and SAP NetWeaver Gateway productivity accelerator for Microsoft ?
Best Regards,
SK

SAP Netweaver Gateway 2.0 is a product for Exposing ERP data as OData for external consumption which is independent of any Microsoft product. Using this you can model OData services and Expose them for light weight consumption. You can use this in use cases where you just want to consume the OData in some client or so, and you do not want any kind of accelerators to help you in development or in your integration.
GWPAM is an interoperability framework from SAP that leverages SAP NetWeaver Gateway and Microsoft technologies enabling customers and partners to easily and quickly compose solutions that consume and extend SAP throughout Microsoft technologies for on premise and on demand deployment. With GWPAM you get components like
GWPAM Visual Studio Add-On,GWPAM Template,GWPAM Project,GWPAM Outlook Add-In which are very much Microsoft specific.

I was working on my 96page catalog with over 2000 photos and out of the blue my frame edges vanished even on the paste board and they are not hidden and are on

You won't see the frame edges if you are in Preview mode, so you should use Normal mode if you want to see them. You can turn off the Document Grid in the View menu (View>Guides & Grids>Hide Document Grid).

SAP Netweaver Portal - Folder structure and report publishing strategy

Hi gurus,
I'm working on a project in which we are publishing BW reports in SAP Netweaver Portal (prior to this, we were using SAP Bex Browser) organizing it by Department (workset, 2nd lvl of navigation), Business Processes (workset, 3rd lvl of navigation) and "iview types" (transactions, queries, dashboards and so on). On 1st level we have a workset simply called "Reports".
For each PFCG role we have on BW (ABAP Server), we created a portal role and defined which of the higher navigation tiers is visible to users (delta-linking the top level navigation worksets to the portal role and setting visible accordingly) and then we assigned Portal roles to the appropriated Group (PFCG role) so all users that have access to certain PFCG role can have access to the corresponding Portal role.
For example:
In BW (ABAP) we have a PFCG Role: Sales PMR Analysis - Administrator, which grants access to Sales Infoproviders, queries and data for PMR analysis. The user that have access to it, should be able to see:
|Reports|
|Sales Administration|
v PMR Analysis
> Web Queries
> Transactions
> Dashboards
> Workbooks
In Portal we create a workset that has: "Reports" and under it, all Departments (Sales Administration, Financial, Services, Human Resources and so on) set as "not visible". We create a Portal role called PMR Analysis and add the Report/Departments workset, set Sales Administration as visible and add worksets/folders named PMR Analysis, Web queries, Transactions, etc, and all the corresponding iviews under it.
If we assign this new Portal role to the Group of the corresponding PFCG role, the user will see exactly as the example from above.
Pros: The users have a clean view of the reports he/she has access.
Cons: The users doesn't have a clear view of what is available in BW so he can request access. There might be some useful report lost in on of the hundreds of BW roles that he doesn't know it exist.
One of the options would be to grant visibility to ALL departments, business processes and iviews in Portal and let PFCG security roles control user access, but that might be confusing to have an overwhelming amount of links, making it hard to find what the user needs, specially during first access. Not to mention possible security breaches.
So, I'd like to know how other consultants are defining this kind of folder structure and report publishing strategy in Portal. Ideally we would like to be able to have:
- Visibility of all existant reports even those that the user does not have acess (so he can learn that it exist and request access)
- Clean view of reports, segmented by department and business processes.
- Possibility to search for reports, even for those that the user does not have access.
I'd appreciate if you guys can share your experience on this.
Thanks in advance.
Leandro

Cons: The users doesn't have a clear view of what is available in BW so he can request access. There might be some useful report lost in on of the hundreds of BW roles that he doesn't know it exist
This is not a refutation: your BW developers/consultants should be able to write reports, which points you in case of insufficent backend rights. EP is not designed to be familiar with ABAP security concept and cant take any influence at it.

Yes, bad idea.
- Visibility of all existant reports even those that the user does not have acess (so he can learn that it exist and request access)
As you already wrote on your own, this would be not good
- Clean view of reports, segmented by department and business processes.
- Possibility to search for reports, even for those that the user does not have access.
This is not covered by SAP, if you wanna provide that, develop it on your own.
cheers

SAP Netweaver 7.3 BI and ECC 6.0 across different OS

Hello all,
We are currently upgrading to ECC 6.0 EHP 5 on AIX/Oracle 11g. Our Business Intelligence team would like to run Netweaver 7.3 BI along with BOBJ 4.0 and Data Services 4.0 on Windows Server 2008.
I was just wondering whether this was possible for integration, or whether we would encounter any sort of interoperability issues? Any help or notes on interoperability would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi,
Integration between SAP NetWeaver BW and SAP ERP (ECC) is at an application level so there is no problem with the solutions being on a different OS or DB. There are no specific notes as this is standard functionality of the exactor framework (RFC based) and its connection to BW DataSources.
Regards,
Mike.

Capturing present and future-dated transactions in Discoverer

Hello,
I'm building a report to capture all terminations processed in Oracle Human Resources. I'm keying terminations (using the End Employment Form in the HR application) to a test environment. I've entered historical terminations, terminations effective today (sysdate), and future-dated terminations.
Using Discoverer Plus, I'm able to build a report (simple row/column) that captures historical terminations that have occurred prior to today. However, I can't seem to pull in today's terminations and future dated terminations.
Any advice on how to capture these? Keep in mind I'm using Plus, I do not have access to Discoverer Admin so I do I have constraints especially in regards to joins and SQL manipulation (which is nil).
Thank you everyone and do let me know if you need more information.

Hi Nick
Is this a table that you created? If so, then it sounds like you may have to adjust the conditions in your report. The one area that we don't have control over is what the Discoverer administrator is doing behind the scenes. If there is a mandatory condition filtering to only past terminations then the only way to resolve this is in the Administrator tool. Also, if a database view is being used to make the data available and within the view there is a similar filter you will also be stuck.
Try creating a report in Discoverer that has no conditions at all and see if you can see the records. If you can then you just need to create appropriate filters to display the records you are concerned about.
If you still cannot see the data then you need to speak with your administrator, bearing in mind that the block could be within the database itself.
Best wishes
Michael

SAP NetWeaver 04s SP7 installation and DHCP server

Hi All,
I am installing SAP NetWeaver on a machine which I use at work. I am little scared whether this installation might harm my computer or the local corporate network. This machine is connected to the local network (uses DHCP) to get the IP address.
Are there any precautions which I need to take before I start practicing on this platform ?
I read this below point in the installation instructions...
=========================================================
If no DHCP server is available on your network (which dynamically determines the IP address) or your computer is not connected to any network, you need to install the virtual interface adapter MS Loopback Adapter. This is described in detail within the contents of the download package.
=========================================================
Now as my computer is using DHCP (unknown location), if I install SAP NetWeaver 04s SP7, do I need to disconnect my comp from the Network and then install the MS loopback adapter ? or Its ok to ignore the DHCP option as my comp is already using DHCP ?
Thanks and Best Regards
Ayub.

Hi Ayub,
U dont need to disconnect ur computer from network. Just install a microsoft loopback adapter and assign it a static ip, and assign that ip and hostname on windows\etc\hosts file. it will installs on loopback adapter and ur local network connection will be as it is.
hope it will help u.

A way to have part of the screen presentation and part live web browser?

I'm trying to put together a presentation that involves demonstrating a
live web site.
Neither Keynote or Powerpoint will let me imbed live web pages into a presentation on a MAC. (ibrowser plug-in will do it for powerpoint PC but not MAC).
I'm wondering if there isn't some way to use two programs to accomplish my goal, which is to have notes about the live web page on screen (sort of prompting and reminding me of what to show next on the web site), while showing the web site and working with it on another portion of the screen.
I come close by creating a powerpoint presentation creating my "prompting notes"
on only the far left side of the powerpoint pages, then turning it into a PDF, then opening the PDF but pushing the window all the way to the right side of the computer screen so on the right I see my "notes" and on the left to center of the computer screen I have the live SAFARI web browswer. I can move from page to page on my slides by hitting the "next" page button on the pdf PREVIEW window.
It kinda works, but isn't anywhere near as slick or clean as I'd like.
Can anyone think of a cleaner way to do this with any combo of MAC applications?
Thanks for any input.

I figured it out myself! I'm making a quicktime movie out of the presentation,
scale the quicktime window to a corner of the screen, and then have the web
browser on the rest of the screen.
Just thought I'd post in case anyone else had this problem and was looking for
an solution!

Anybody know about the Window Presentation and Google Update Plugins?

Do you have the Google Update and Windows Presentation plugins? I didn't add them, but they are there and weren't removed as incompatible when I updated from FF 7 to 7.01. So, I haven't disabled them. The Windows Presentation plugin hasn't been updated since 2008 and has no updates! Neither does the Google Update plugin.
