SAP R/3 ERP 6.0, BI and BO on Sigle Sign On

Hi Experts,
We have implemented SAP R/3 ERP 6.0, BI and BO with Crystal Reports.
Is it possiable configure Single Sign On for the above servers with sigle point of login.
Using NWBC we can connect single inteerface but is it possiable with SSO.
Our SAP user must be able to access crystal reports from SAP menu, SAP user NEED NOT to enter another user ID and pwd while accessing Crystal report. His one time SAP login should be enough to use SAP programs as well as crystal reports
Similarly, if a user is defined in SAP BI, he will be using same user ID , Pwd to access BO-Web-I reports
Please suggest me on this.
Regards,
Sandeep K

Hi Sandeep,
       You can import SAP roles and users in to BOE and then enable single sign. There are different options available to achieve this. Please refer to below links. That will give you some idea.

SAP NetWeaver Application Server ABAP & SAP Business Warehouse 7.4 SP8 on SAP HANA with ERP-System

Hello,
I have a running Instance of SAP NetWeaver Application Server ABAP & SAP Business Warehouse 7.4 SP8 on SAP HANA 1.0 SP8.
Here I have the minisap Licence of A4H.
When I get the Licence of ERP - do I have a fully ERP System on HANA ?
Or do I need a new Instance?

Hi Julia,
even if you or your company have an SAP license for ERP, you are legally not allowed to install the license key into the free offering it because you have accepted the terms and conditions of the trial/developer version.
If you want to use your own licenses, you would need to switch to the BYOL model where you bring in the license. For that you would need to purchase the SAP Cloud Appliance Library subscription. You get more details here (CAL FAQ - Business related questions ). To purchase the SAP Cloud Appliance Library subscription you would need to select the "Unlock full library" link on the top right corner of the Subscriptions screen on http://cal.sap.com.

Benefits of SAP Web AS ERP Connector? vs/ native SSO integration capability

What are the benefits of using SAP Web AS ERP connector vs. SAP's own utilization of their native SSO integration capability of the SAP WebAS environment?
Please help me understand how the ERP connector adds value if we were to instead use a web agent on a supported platform as a proxy to the SAP Web AS, with the Session Linker, and use the above noted out of the box integration capability?

Hi,
Don't worry : these test results are meaningless. You should test a real BSP application and see if it works.

SAP BW Release 3.1 Content - What' s new?
SAP provides a comprehensive set of business analytics to integrate and analyze process-oriented content from a variety of sources and across various applications and industries. It enables companies to improve business processes and quickly respond to changing market dynamics by providing business information to executives, analysts and information consumers, delivered in real-time via the Web.
SAP BW's analytical foundation and wide-range of Business Content enables customers to create their own analytical applications that best fit their business requirements.
Business Content and Business Analytics
Business Content for Oracle Applications
Standard Business Content for Oracle Applications 11i was delivered with BW 3.0B covering the Financials and Project Accounting areas. To enhance the value of these existing analytical applications, including Web cockpits for cost center and project monitoring, we provide predefined extractors to load the business data from the Oracle Applications source system into SAP BW.
The integration of Oracle Applications into SAP BW is based on the new Oracle extract package of Ascential's DataStage product. Business data from Oracle Applications is extracted into the InfoCubes for the Oracle General ledger and for Oracle Project Accounting that were delivered with BW 3.0B. For more information please click here and also here.
Analytics Supporting The Concept of Business Activity Monitoring (BAM)
BAM is a Gartner term that defines the concept of providing real-time access to critical business performance indicators in order to improve the speed and effectiveness of business operations. As business transactions are increasingly automated, the speed of these transactions accelerates. SAP BW delivers packaged analytics, for example in the SCM area, that combine application and data integration using SCEM (Supply Chain Event Management).
SCEM enables companies to monitor processes immediately and in great detail. This means that they are able to recognize and react to critical situations quickly, before they result in delayed deliveries and production standstills. In many cases, event information is essential not only during the processes, but also after completion, because it can be used both for measuring quality aspects and for cost saving. For this reason, it is advisable to integrate the Supply Chain Event Manager with SAP Business Information Warehouse (SAP BW).
Business Analytics - SAP's Packaged Analytical Applications per Business Area / Industry
Analytical applications measure and improve business processes across a company's entire value chain. Based on a solid foundation (Data Warehousing, BI Platform and BI Suite of tools), SAP BW provides integrated applications that understand each other's metadata, and offer a closed loop that incorporates all aspects: Operations, analytics, and personalization.
SAP BW 3.1 Content delivers analytics for all business areas such as CRM, SCM, SRM, HR, etc. as well as for different industries, such as Retail, Banking, and Service Providers to name a few.

Select SAP's product or another OLAP tool and why?

Hi Experts,
In an effort to validate my opinion of SAP BW/NetWeaver Capability - In terms of flexibility, KPI Development, and Predictive Analytics, If you had to decide, would you select SAP's product or another OLAP tool and why??

Hi,
All data warehouse products provide flexibility and good tools to build strategic reports focus on KPI. All of them also provide easy to use tools to display and organize analytic information..... I guess that the decision about what product will be chosen will be based on how difficult is to pull (and keep updated) the data from the transactional systems behind. In other words, if you are running SAP to manage a big part of your day to day transactional system, go for BW / BI.
In SAP BW / BI, you have a large group of extractors and predefined processes that enable you to pull the data from the SAP systems into multidimensional indexed data providers. Once the data is there, you could easily develop your own queries and reports, organizing them in almost whatever way you want and building almost any possible KPI you want. You cloud display and manipulate these queries and reports using almost any single PC product you want......
Now, if your data sources are not base on SAP , you have to build your own data extractors. You also have to build your own data warehouse targets (data providers) and your own mapping processes. You will be dealing with normalization and database definition concepts. Being technically feasible probably is not the best path.
If you have an hybrid situation (some SAP systems and some NO SAP system), you will evaluate how many strategic data sources you have in each size and take a decision base on that

SAP's Customer Network for R&D and Engineering

Just want to make the PPM folks aware that SAP started the "Customer Network for R&D and Engineering".
See also this post in the [PLM Forum|SAP's Customer Network for R&D and Engineering;.If you are interested to participate in the Network, just drop me a mail with your contact details.

Dear Phillip,
Cloud enabled software can be easily deployed on-premises but not vice versa.
this could probably be the deciding factory, for every customer : - )
no one would want to block their future...
so even for on-premise, its better to start with cloud and go for hybrid model and i believe
if this lock is there.....
then every on-premise solutions will have a cloud solution.....
want to see your argument on, any one thinking, i want only on-premise, and i will not be needing
cloud solutions in near future..... also for hybrid customers, cloud first and then on-premise would be pain area.

I think your question is in the wrong forum. This is for SAP MDM related questions and answers. SAP MDM does not use Transaction codes. So you may not get much help here.
Please try posting your question in the ABAP forums and you may get the right resources to help you.
Thanks.

Integration Kit compatible with SAP 4.7 ERP?

Is the current Int Kit for SAP compatible with SAP 4.7 ERP? How far back can you go before it breaks?

Hi,
Assuming we're talking XI3.x, here's the XI3.1 Integration Kit for SAP solutions - supported platforms doc:
http://service.sap.com/~form/sapnet?_SHORTKEY=01100035870000726192&_SCENARIO=01100035870000000202&_OBJECT=011000358700000925952009E
SAP R/3 4.6c, BASIS level 41, ABA level 41
SAP R/3 4.7, BASIS level 41, ABA level 41
are mentionned as min requirement.
that's unchanged in the SP4 version of the same doc : http://service.sap.com/~form/sapnet?_SHORTKEY=01100035870000726192&_SCENARIO=01100035870000000202&_OBJECT=011000358700000735102011E

Downloaded data in Excel from SAP table data to have the macro and control?

We know that in SE16 screen to display SAP table data, there is a menu item or button to download the table data to excel sheet, but in the excel sheet, the data is for display only and some calculation functions (e.g. sum) are not be able to be downloaded to the excel sheet as macro.
Our customers would like us to see if there is a way that in the excel sheet with the download SAP table data, only some certain rows/columns of data are allowed to be changed by customers or in other words, other areas in the excel sheet should be frozen and users can not even insert a column and do the copy/paste rows/columns. And also the original calculated column in SAP table (e.g., sum) would be in the corresponding column in the excel sheet, but with macro to do the same function (e.g., sum). After the customers perform some changes in some allowed certain rows/columns in the excel file, then the changed data can be uploaded back to SAP.
Wonder if there are such ABAP program to fullfill the above task to download SAP table data to an excel file and to make the downloaded data in the excel with only some certain row/columns to be changeable and all other areas frozen?
Thanks and we will give you reward points for valuable answers!

Hi,
This scenario can be met with the FM : RH_START_EXCEL_WITH_DATA
This is available in Older versions. Starts Excel with a macro.
I have never tried using this FM.
However, I came across : http://www.jt77.com/development1/programming-23850.html
Showing the use of it.
To get useful hints, also refer :
1) Transaction : DWDM
2) MS EXCEL as OLE Client :

3) Read the content at any table + Defined Macros used to call Function Modules

Once you get a solution, would appreciate a mail to me @ <REMOVED BY MODERATOR>
Cheers,
