SBO Back Up

Dear Experts,
I have enabled SBO Back up for the DB.  Daily basis transactions are entered  and logically DB size would increase.  But backup size is decreasing one day, another day the size in increasing.
Why is this issue coming.  If i schedule this through back up maintenance task of SQL server also, the same thing is happening.
What might be the issue or is it correct.
Pl help
Regards
Sundaram

Pl see below the drastic difference in Back Up, am taking the back up through SBO Backup from SAP B1 Service Manager.

But i have checked randomly the documents and verified TB. Everything is tallying,
Pl confirm whether it is a problem or what ?
Have you checked if the auto shrink of database log file is activated ? Check it in your db properties --> options --> auto shrink.
check if your recovery model is simple or not.

  • SBO Back Up Problem

    Hello,
    I'm using SAP B1 2005B .And The SBO BackUp of SAPB1   generates .BU files in the specified path
    after every 1 hour,but I cannot restore it in the database.
    When I go to the database & choose the Resore from the right click options,it asks for .mdf file only.It
    can't restore the database.
    Plz tell me the steps to restore the .BU file generated by SAPB1 in MSSQL  2005 Database .
    Does the SBO backup works in a model where SAP B1 2007 B  PL :4 Client & License server in in one machine whereas Database is in different m/c? Then which m/c has to be used for BackUp directory & BackUp Temp paths?

  • Standard Report layouts in Crystal 2008 for SBO 2007A

    It has been 2 years since SBO adopted Crystal Reports to become part of the standard product, I refer back to the initial links which promised links to Standard Reports, however 2 years later these links appear to be exactly the same, no updates.
    http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/webcontent/uuid/807d22cb-cb1d-2b10-8794-fb76d7feca88#section12 [original link is broken]
    For SBO 8.8 there appears to be a pack of Reports available for Sales Orders, Purchase Orders etc
    I would like to know if there a pack of standard Crystal reports for SBO 2007A and if so where would we be able to find them?
    Many thanks

  • Link between OrderDetail and SBO Sales Order Lines

    Hey All,
    can anyone tell me how I can tell which order detail records are linked to which SBO sales order lines? I know I can find the sales order based on the synch id in the ordermaster table. But I don't see  a link between the child orderdetail table and RDR1 in B1.
    Any ideas?

    Hi Curtis,
    This is actually a bug.
    (Fixed in sp1--release date who knows when)
    Way back in the olden days, Webtools (NetPoint) did not allow the same item on multiple lines, so synchid, partno was a unique key.
    When this changed in 5.96, no synchid was added to the orderdetail, resulting in a bug if the following happens:
    1.  order is created in Webtools with the same item on multiple lines
    2.  order is synchronized to B1
    3.  order detail data is editted on the duplicate items
    4.  synch back to Webtools
    The line item data may be incorrect on the duplicate items
    So, the moral of the story is, your best bet is a compound key of ordermaster.synchid/orderdetail.partno-->rdr1.docentry/rdr1.itemcode.  But be warned that there could be synch issues if you end up in the above scenario.

  • AddOnsLocalRegistration.sbo file does not match data in the common datab...

    We are receiving the following error everytime we logon our pc for the first time: Add-On Outlook_Integration: This Add-on cannot be upgraded. AddOnsLocalRegistration.sbo file does not match data in the common database for this add-on. See SAP Note 1323680 for more information.
    A few months ago, SBO Server was moved from one server to a new virtual server, but we had no problems with the addons. The other day, we upgraded from SBO 2007 to 8.8 and now we are having problems with the Outlook Integration.
    I have followed the directions in the message noted above, and did find the AddOnsLocalRegistration.sbo file in some odd places, with a reference to the old server. I cleaned this up, on the server and the client and I can get it running...however, after the user shuts down the pc and logs back in the next day, the problem is back.
    In the process of cleaning this up (un-registering the addon and removing the addon references in the local .sbo file) I noticed at times that we would still receive this error, when there really shouldn't be an reference to it.
    Thanks for any help.

    Hi Vaughn.........
    I guess you need a re installation of Outlook Integration Addon.
    Whatever version addon of OI you installed just uninstall it and Install it freshly from 8.8 setup package......

  • Sbo-common_log.ldf

    running 2007 SBO
    The above file is now 32GB!!!!!
    can we take action to delete file and reset back up conditions?

    Hi Chris,
    Option 1
    You can use DB shrink, which can significantly decrease the log file.
    sql help can provide you detail information
    Option 2
    1. Verify your sbo-common_log.ldf location.
    2. make a backup.
    3. kill all active sessions
    3. detach the sbo-commom db.
    4. delete sbo-common_log.ldf.
    5. attach sbo-common db, sql will create a new log.ldf file for you.
    Thanks and Best Regards

  • SBO Backup

    SBO Backup stops suddenly.
    I had schedule my SBO backup for daily, it works daily, but sometime it works for one week or two week and suddenly after two weeks or after some days it stop automatically.
    than i have to start once again.
    Why it stops after 1 week or 2 week.

    I submitted this issue to the forms for SAP and I received this back.  I have tested the registry fix on several of my customer servers and it works.  The only reason I did not upgrade to PL06 was I had just upgraded these customers to 881 PL04.  Hope this helps.
    How to fix registry for hung Service
    I would like to point your attention to the fact that this issue has been fixed in PL06 of 8.81 released yesterday (23/06/2011). If you do not wish to upgrade to the patch, there is a possible workaround to ensure that the services start in correct order and prevent the hang of the B1 Service:
    Open Registry and go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Service s\SBOBackUp
    add a new value whose name is DependOnService and the type is Multi-string value, the data is B1LicenseService
    (This means that the version of the service tool is 8.8 and this action makes that the backup service starts always after the license service).

  • How to Fetch the Row value in SBO Formatted search

    Hi Experts,
    I have created a Sales order, in which i  have 4 UDF Fields(A,B,C,D) in the following:
    Example values:
    A  B  C  D 
    2   2   4  4
    3   2   6  10
    C=A*B
    D=1st value of D + 2nd col value of C
    i have written query for C, but how to write the Formatted search Query for generation of D values. plz reply as soon as possible.

    Magesh,
    I quite understand what you are trying to do.   If you look at the example below I added a third row to show how you want the D to be a running total of column C. RIGHT !!
    A B C D
    2 2 4 4
    3 2 6 10
    <b>4 2 8 18</b>
    Honestly, it is not going to be simple as you do not have a way in SBO to access a particular column from a row.  When you say $[$38.U_C] it refers to the context row OR the row which has the highlight OR the row which has the curson on it.
    It is not possible to say $[$38.U_C from row 2]  JUST  NOT POSSIBLE ...
    You have to write a tricky code by using a temp table referencing the value of column C.  Also you have to keep track if Rows gets deleted and a new row added. 
    I will test a sample code and will come back.

  • Database restore from SQL 2000 to SQL 2005 for SBO 2005B

    Hi Everyone,
    I am facing some problems in regards to the restore of SBO Database from SQL 2000 to SQL 2005.
    Let me explain you the problem.
    See I am using SAP B1 2005B with patch level 38 in my laptop with SQL 2000. I have made an company in this and done work in it as a production company and now I want to restore this company in the server which has SQL 2005. How to do it.
    I have taken a backup in my laptop from SAP B1 Server Suite Manager which has SQL 2000 and sucessfully backed up but when I am trying to restore in the server which has SQL 2005 I am getting the following error in SQL 2005 in server :-
    Restore failed for Server 'DXBAP001'.  (Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo)
    System.Data.SqlClient.SqlError: Directory lookup for the file "C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL\data\SBO_DCHAR.mdf" failed with the operating system error 3(The system cannot find the path specified.). (Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo)
    Please let me know the solution for it.
    Thanks in Advance.
    Regards,
    Kawish Junaid Mazhari

    Hi,
    In SQL 2005 create a database and name as the 200 one was (though any name would do).  when you create the database note the location of the .mdb and .ldf file.
    once this had created right click on your new database > tasks > restore database
    in the new window select from device and point it to your .bak file created from your 2000 system, ensure you put a tick in the restore box on the new line.
    in the options tab tick overwrite database, and, change the file locations in the restore as directory to the file locations of the new database.  the file names must be the same too.
    you can change the original file names after the restore.
    that should do the trick.
    thanks,
    mike

  • SBO Backup schedule problem

    Hi,
    When i try to schedule de SBO Backup in the SAP Service Manager to "daily" and click oke, then it always switches back to "on specific date"
    What is my problem?
    Greetings
    Mark

    Hi Mark,
    Thanks for the details, we were checking all the fixes included in version 2007A in regard the backup services and not similiar issue had been reported.
    The change in the backup frequency could be related to a third party application as Anti-virus a/o spyware reseting the system values to the previous one.
    As already commented in this thread, it will be advisable to reinstall the server tools or make the proper changes to allow you antivirus to take the change.
    If still facing the issue after applying previous recommendations, please generate and forward a message to Business One support including all the details from your test and observations.

  • Truncate or Shrink the SBO-COMMON Database in B1.

    Hello everybody!!
    I need to know if it's safe to either truncate or shrink the SBO-COMMON database.  I kow all recovery trail will be lost, but that doesn't matter much, since I'm planning to switch from "full recovery" to "simple" recovery model.  The database is backed up on a daily basis, so only the last back up of the databse is relevant.
    In notes 625546, 783183 and 548772 SAP clearly states that truncating or shrinking a production database is a safe procedure, but what about the SBO-COMMON?  I guess one can follow the same rationale as in the production databases, but I'm not sure.
    Thanks for any valuable help.
    Emilio Méndez.

    Ross:
    Thanks a lot for the advice.  I'm still triyng to get official word from SAP through a message in the Market Place.  Anyhow, I'm going to take your adivce as a "best practice" for a reasonable maintenace plan to the databases used by B1.
    I'm only waiting for some other comments before I mark the thread as "answered".
    Thanks a lot for the help,

    Kindly reply back at the earliest...

  • What are the best practices for backing up SAP B1?

    Right now, we are using a nightly tape back up. Is this sufficient? Or are there other, better options?
    Thank you!
    John Sefton

    It is sufficient,as you would have default SBO-Backup utility
    whcih can be automatted.
    In addition, you can even take a manual backup from the back end.

  • How to enter subcontracting details ion SBO.

    hi all
    How to enter subcontracting details ion SBO.
    It is in manufacturing process, where my client send a product out side to a third party for further process (sub contracting) of the product and recieves it back, then it is used with other rawmateral to get a finished product.
    where should i enter these details that product going out of the factory and comming in, and its cost which incurred with third party.
    regards
    kumar

    Hi Kumar,
    I would suggest that you will have to maintain the the third party work shop where your goods are going to be processed as a Warehouse. Now create the Production order as a Standard or a special one as the case maybe and mention the Warehouse no. in the Item level of the production Order. Once the oruduction Order is created and saved change the status to Released and issue it for production. Now the posting date of the Issue document would be the Issue date. Also make sure that at the Item level or the Production Order level you have changed the issue method to be manual since you want to record the issue date. Also once the Goods have been processed you can create the Receipt document by putting the warehouse as your warehouse.
    Hope this helps.
