Query SAP BW via XMLA Webservice and save response to HD

Hi,
I´m currently working for an QM Project to create an Overview-page with figures from various BW-Querys. Unfortunatly the the BW-Performance isn´t fast enough to execute a lot of Querys in realtime, so I can´t use the Web App Designer.
To improve performance I want to execute those querys once a day and save the result sets on hard disk. To get the data out of the BW I want to use the XMLA-Webservice which is already running.
Is there a simple way or application to send my XMLA to the webservice and save the response on hard disk?

You can use XMLA web service or the queryview web service to get the data in XML format. The queryview XML service is only available from BW 3.5, see attached documentation.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/d8/3bfc3f8fc2c542e10000000a1550b0/content.htm
Ther is also an How to document available for XMLA under the BW 3.0B section.
If you are looking at a report with no navigation you can use the pre-calculation of the web reports with reporting agent which will create a pre-calculated HTML output on the BW server. Everytime you access the web report the pre-calculated HTML output will be displayed and the performance is great as the data is not accessed at runtime.

Error when saving Crystal Report to SAP BW (via SAP toolbar)

Dear Experts -
Our landscape is:
Backend - SAP BW7.4 with Service pack 5
Crystal Version - Crystal Reports 2013 SP1 Patch 6
Business Objects - SAP BI 4.1 SP1 Patch 6
I'm trying to save a crystal report to SAP BW via the toolbar option, but the attached error is being returned.
Also, if I try to create a new report from BW, an error is thrown. 'An error occurred while generating a new report template; No error'.
Any feedback/pointers would be valuable.
Regards,
Tarun.

I realize this post is a few months old, but did S. B. O. Shell Business One get this issue cleared up by installing the BW transports mentioned in Josh's reply? I'm interested in knowing whether this was resolved as we are receiving the same error as the one shown in the initial post.

Chris

MATMAS01 IDOC not reaching to SAP XI via report program.

Dear Experts,
WE are facing small challenge.
I searched on SDN on scenarios: IDOC not reaching to SAP XI. But could not find exact solution t oour scenario.
Problem:
MATMAS01 IDOC is not reaching to SAP XI via report program and is in status of 03 on SAP system. And there are not entries under SM58.
Under SAP XI system IDOC entry is not reflecting under IDX5 transaction, I tried to delete meta data of MATMAS01 thru IDX1 and uploaded again but still IDOC is not reaching to SAP XI.
The strange is that MATMS01 IDOC is reaching to XI via WE19 test tool. So PORT and RFC destination settings betweeen R3 and XI is also correct.
What could be the wrong ?
Thanks
Divyesh

When sending Idoc from R/3,
Settings at R/3
create one port at WE21,
Create Partner Profile for Outbound Message type in WE20.
settings at XI
Create one port in IDX1
Import Matadata in IDX2.
Create complete scenario in ESR for Idoc sender, also import IDoc in Imported Objects.
Check these settings & send test idoc using WE19.

Mdrmsap - retrieve SAP variables

I'm trying to retrieve the properties of the SAP variables, used in a BI query, using a VB 6 application.
Using the following command :
Dim myObj As Object
Set myObj = m_cube.GetSchemaObject(adObjectTypeMember, "SAP VARIABLES")
generates the error : "Internal error when creating MEMBER SCHEMA ROWSET. Error #MEMBER"
How do I retrieve the properties of the SAP variables in VB 6 ? I need to retrieve the VARIABLE_SELECTION_TY
PE.
Thanks in advance

Hi Sat,
I've checked following objects within the references :
Microsoft ActiveX Data Objects (Multi-dimensional) 2.8 Library (MSADOMD.DLL)
Microsoft ActiveX Data Objects 2.8 Library (MSADO15.DLL)
Microsoft DAO 3.6 Object Library
so the version of MSADOMD is newer than the one you mentioned.
Data of the info provider is read fine, using the cellset.open function.
I need the properties of the parameters of the query, because I have to build a filter screen in my VB application, and I
need to know whether or not it's a required parameter and what kind of parameter is used (single entry, single input list, range

SAP Variable Tech Name in MDX

Hi Friends,
I have a question related to SAP Variable usage in MDX statement.
I have a hierarchy node variable, which is mandatory and has a default value..
When technical name of this variable is something like ZXYZ_SM, it appears differently in MDX, as !V0000017..
Problem is, i have to use this variable in two seperate queries and this MDX technical name changes query to query..
Eg.: when it is !V0000017 in Query A, it is !V0000015 in Query B.. I need them to be identical across queries, because this is a global filter of a huge dashboard..
Can you please help me how to proceed? I need solution on Bex side..
Thanks in advance,
Sunil
====================================================
SAP Variable tech name needs to be shorter than 10 chars in order to be supported by MDX. So, changing variable name fixed the issue...
====================================
Edited by: SunilKmr on Nov 29, 2010 1:27 PM

What Rohit is trying to say is that the technical name of the BEX variables is not shown to an end user,
and also not used to combine user input, only the prompt text is.
(BTW, the technical name is determined by the position of the variable prompt in the BEX query,
so the first variable shown will be !V000001, the second !V000002, etc.
So in your case the order in the two BEX queries is different)
So if you have two BEX queries, this means two universes.
Now when you want to report data out of these two universes you will build a query in the WebI report on each universe.
Both queries will ask you for input for their respective BEX variables,
but to do that they using the prompt text, not the tech name.
By default this prompt text will be the name of the BEX variable,
but you can change the text in the universe without implications.
As long as the two prompt texts are the same for these two different tech name variables,
BO will give just one prompt and feed it to !V0000017 in the query on the universe for BEX query A
and !V0000015 in the query on the universe for BEX query B.
Hope this is clear enough,
Marianne

About integration between SAP and non-SAP applications via javaidoc classes

Hi,All
Now we are implementing a SAP-Retail project,we encounter a problem of integration between SAP and non-SAP applications(POS),we want to set Inbound/Outbound between SAP and POS applications realtimely,POS can connect to the SAP system via VPN,weather it can be implemented?
I conceive to implement it with SAP Java Connector IDoc Class,I don't know weather it is the best solution?If not,please give some other proposal.
I have download the classes from SAP website and try it with the samples provided by SAP(JCoIDocSample1.java/JCoIDocSample3.java),In my testing,Inbound is succeed,but,in SAP-Retail IS,standard Outbound message type is defined via file port,some one told me that SAP Java Connector IDoc Class can only receive idocs from tRFC port?is it true?If not,please tell me how to deploy in SAP so java program can receive idocs from file port?

We too are interested in finding information on integration between SAP and Intergraph. Were you able to obtain information and I was wondering if could share this with us.

MDX Error for SAP Variables

Hi All,
We have used QAAWS for creating a dashboard in Xcelsius using Trigger cell for a selection variable in BI Query.When a different selection is maded for that variable getting the below error (In this case i have selected US for the variable)
A database error occured. The database error text is: The MDX query SELECT { [Measures].[4FYOXRUNHMI2F3N8G0Q6GNC0I] } ON COLUMNS , NON EMPTY [0SALESORG].[LEVEL01].MEMBERS DIMENSION PROPERTIES [0SALESORG].[40SALESORG] ON ROWS FROM [ZGC0_M001/TEST_2] SAP VARIABLES [TEST_BO] INCLUDING US failed to execute with the error Unknown error. (WIS 10901)
checked in MDXTEST giving the query
SELECT { [Measures].[4FYOXRUNHMI2F3N8G0Q6GNC0I] } ON COLUMNS , NON EMPTY [0SALESORG].[LEVEL01].MEMBERS DIMENSION PROPERTIES [0SALESORG].[40SALESORG] ON ROWS FROM [ZGC0_M001/TEST_2] SAP VARIABLES [TEST_BO] INCLUDING US
It thrown an error saying the above query is invalid.
Later i tried with the below query
SELECT { [Measures].[4FYOXRUNHMI2F3N8G0Q6GNC0I] } ON COLUMNS , NON EMPTY [0SALESORG].[LEVEL01].MEMBERS DIMENSION PROPERTIES [0SALESORG].[40SALESORG] ON ROWS FROM [ZGC0_M001/TEST_2] SAP VARIABLES [TEST_BO] INCLUDING [0SALESORG].[US]
Now it perfectly worked fine.
Can any one let me know why a wrong MDX query is getting generated and how to rectify it?
Regards,
Pra

Hi Ingo,
Sorry for the late reply....
Yes i am sending the Key values as the input for the variables.
If you observe the 2 MDX Statements(the last line especially) .....i guess [SalesOrg] needs to get appended in the MDX Statement for the Key values that i input and as it is not happening it is throwing an error saying MDX error.

Pra

XMII OLAP Query Template SAP Variables Count Limit

While working with the MII OLAP Query template and connecting to a a BW Adhoc query with many input variables. I have noticed the SAP Variables list available in the MII OLAP Query template seems to be limited. Is this really true, can it be configured to display more variables, is there something else that would cause variales not to be displayed in the query template list?
I have tried to type in SAP variables not displayed in the list but actually in the BW Query but this just resulted in an error.
Any insight would be really helpful. Thanks

Gary,
One again drawing some analogies here , this time with the JCO. Suppose you are interfacing to a ZBAPI and at some point you make some changes to the Z function in R/3. These changes are not automatically reflected in MII unless you refresh/clear the JCO Proxy. Could a similar scenario be attributing to your issue?
What I would suggest is to disable / save / enable / save your OLAP data server and see if that makes any differnce.
I may be totally off track here but just a thought.
Goodluck
Regards
Udayan

OLAP BAPI - MDX Extension - SAP VARIABLES

Hello,
we use OLAP BAPI in oder to run queries angainst BW. Queries are written in MDX using the SAP VARIABLES extension to MDX. When using a variable for characteristic "0MATERIAL", the system returns an error stating that the specified value is not correct with this characteristic (we test our queries using tx "mdxtest"). In fact, the specified value exists for 0MATERIAL. Are there any further restrictions to using the SAP VARIABLES-clause (e.g., ALPHA-conversion exit)?
Thank you!
Kind regards,
Tom

Hello Rishi,
thank you for your comment. You are right - the conversion exit is MATN1. In fact it does not work either using a material number in external format or using a material number in internal format. Any further ideas - are there any specifics to MDX using clause SAP VARIABLES?
Thank you!
Kind regards,
Tom

Starting SAP GUI via Active X

HI,
I'm trying to find an example of starting the SAP GUI via ActiveX / OCX. I'd like the same functionality as provided by the Enterprise Portal but within a normal HTML page. I'd be interested in the HTML code as well as details regarding the passing of transaction code, etc.
Thanks.

Unfortuantely, the Current User registry key cannot be updated via SMS. From what I've seen& tested the registry settings can be pushed via a login GPO or login script, but due to our environment including contactors and consultants I still cannot get a high coverage rate.
If i do find a magic bullet - I'll report it here.
In the meantime, perhaps a SAP developer would bring this capability to the Installation Server - it allows us to tune & tweak the packages already. <hint hint> - Xmas is coming!
