Use of Entitlement system

Hi
When we are configuring SAP Authentication, we create an Entitlement System in BOBJ Server. While creating this Entitlement System we need to supply the username and password. What is the specific use of this usename and password?
Why is that we need to pass the username and password. When this username and password will be used?
Thanks,
Gopi

Hi Ingo and Ricky,
Thanks for the reply.
My concern was regarding the permissions. Is The username and password that we use in entitlement system used for getting the data from BW system or its only useful to import the roles and users into BOBJ system?
Also can a user access a webi report which is created in BOBJ system based on the SAP BW if the user only exists in Bobj system and doesn't exist in SAP BW System?
Say If he can execute the webi report and access the data from SAP BW system without the user actually being in the SAP BW System then what are the credentials that it uses to get the data from SAP BW System?
thanks,
Gopi

SAP Authentication - Entitlement systems

Hi Team,
We designed all the reports with one OLAP Connection, Its mapped to SAP - ECC Entitlement systems
Now, we need one more report with data level filter for specific users. So, We are planning to achieve this at BW cube level for specific users, which are created in BW system.
So, for this we need to comeup with one more OLAP Connection to the BW system and other SAP Entitlement systems for BW configurations.
Clarifications:
Is this possible to maintain the two SAP entitlement systems?
Can we maintain these two sytems default for users login?
Do we need to add one more key store? if yes, can we upload two keystores in options?
Could you please help me out from these questions?
Regards,
Krishna

Hello,
please see your answers.
1. Yes it is
2. No, only one System can be teh default. For the other the user has to type the SID and Client manually into the Login Page
3. No, you only need one Keystore. You need to import the same certificate, that you used for your first SAP System, into the second SAP System.

Entitlement Systems Logical System Name

Environment:
- BusinessObjects Edge Series BI 3.1 (standard packge)
- Business Objects XI Integration for SAP Solutions
- Windows Server 2003 x64
I am trying to configure a Logical System Name in the Entitlement Systems of the BusinessObjects Central Management Console.
Our BI 7.01 system uses a different naming convention for the logical system name (not the standard <SID>CLNT<client#>
(i.e. BWQCLNT300). We use BWQ300. How would I override the default configuration (put in a different logical system name) in CMC - SAP Authentication?
Please advise. Thank you in advance.
Francis

Ingo,
That is correct. It generated the logical system name automatically for me.
But our BW system have a logical system name of BWQ300 (not BWQCLNT300).
How would I override this ?
Thank you very much for your reply.

Different entitlement systems

Hi
I use SSO (SAP Authentication) and have two entitlement systems.
Does anyone know how we can configure a connection in Business Objects Mobile to allow access to both entitlement systems?
At the moment, a connection does not allow me to specify the client and hence users can only logon to the default entitlement system.
It would be acceptable to create two connections, provided that Ican define the target client system, in the connection.
When users logon to the the Business Objects LaunchPad via Internet explorer on a desktop, this is not an issue as the login screen has a field for both system and client.
Thanks

Hi Stephen,
More than two entitlement systems are supported on IOS Mobile BI App since 6.1 release. What is new in SAP BusinessObjects Mobile 6.1 (iOS)
The SSO to more than one entitlement systems would require you to create two different connections in the same Mobile BI App. And both has to be imported, pushed via MDM or pre-configured (if you use SDK). Note that connections that use SSO cannot be created manually.
For creating a SSO connection via import option, you can look at the parameters at Creating connections using Import Option in SAP Mobile BI. 'BOBJ_MOBILE_SSO_SAP_SYSTEM' is the parameter for your specific interest.
If you are not using SUP/SMP you should be configuring following parameters
CON.DisplayName=MY_CONNECTION
CON.BOBJ_MOBILE_URL=your Mobile Server URL with port number
CON.BOBJ_MOBILE_CMS=your CMS FQN with port number
CON.BOBJ_MOBILE_AUTH_METHOD=secSAPR3
CON.BOBJ_MOBILE_SSO_COOKIE_NAME=MYSAPSSO2
CON.BOBJ_MOBILE_SSO_FORM_URL =FORM based Custom App URL to generate MYSAPSSO2 Cookie
CON.BOBJ_MOBILE_SSO_ENABLED=true
CON.BOBJ_MOBILE_SSO_TYPE=SSO_Form
CON.BOBJ_MOBILE_SSO_SAP_SYSTEM=XYZ^100
The following blog details out how SSO can be implemented on Mobile server SAP BI Mobile Server Single Sign On Support
Hope this helps

How many mails i can send at a time per day using APEX mail system?

HI,
I am working on application, when i have written a process to send mail, i have a project where i have to send mail at a time for all the email id's
given list there are upto 5000 email id's where text body also include certain set of data from a report. thinking at a time 3000 its difficult i divided
it region wise, but still each region have 2000 odd email id's. during testing when i run the process just 950 mails i could send then i got a error
saying "ORA-20001: You have exceeded the maximum number of email messages per workspace. Please contact your administrator." so please
can any one help me to know How many mails i can send at a time per day using APEX mail system?
Thanks in advance
Gowthami

Hi jfosteroracle,
You are getting the error may be the following reason,
Check the following,
Login as ADMIN and Goto -->Manage Instance-->Instance Settings--> Mail-->Maximum Emails per workspace
Actually this number denotes the Number of mails can be sent per 24 hour for the workspace,It may exceeded.
It may be the reason.
Thank you.

SSO to R/3 using a reference system

Hi,
I try to setup SSO between a EP6 SP2 and a R/3 4.7. I configured the backendsystem correctly because SSO works if the users have the same user id (tried it using WinGUI). In my case the user ids between ActiveDirectory and SAP differ, so I have to use a reference system. I configured it in the UME settings and now my users can personalize their user ids, but when they click on save an error message appears that a problem occured. In the log file it says:

Error when using the variable System::ErrorDescription

HI All,
When I try to use the variable System::ErrorDescription I get the following error:
The element cannot be found in a collection. This error happens when you try to retrieve an element from a collection on a container during execution of the package and the element is not there.
Do I need to declare it or it's a variable that always is available to get exceptions from the execution states?

if this is in a Script Task then:
- add the variable in the Script task property ReadOnlyVariables list
- in the Script Code refer to it as
string ErrorDesc = (string) Dts.Variables["System::ErrorDescription"].Value;

Use of Discovery System

I am interested in getting the Discovery system. I want to use it as a means of exploring the SAP functionality for my organization. We are a cargo airline and would like to explore if SAP is a good fit for our Aircraft Maninenace, repair and Overhaul module (MRO) as well scenarios in Finace , SD and MM.
I am not interested in learning about SOA except as a by product, but to evaluate the functionality of the different modules like GRC, Solution Manager and XI.
Is it possible to configure things given I have the proper SAP license ? What kind of a license would I need ?
Information is difficult to come by even from HP itself or SAp.
Please respond.

Hi Anju,
In general: Of course you can use the Discovery system to evaluate whatever software or functionality is installed on the box. So this is definitely true for the ERP modules, GRC, Solution Manager and XI as mentioned below. The DS comes with full administrative rights making it possible for you to configure anything you want (having a backup in place is advised).
Licensing:
You need to have an SAP ERP or SAP Business Suite license in place to activate the Discovery system. This will give you the chance to evaluate the software and components on the system for a maximum of up-to 6 month (for those components you don't have licensed yet). However customer specific licensing is somewhat unique. Therefore it is advised to contact your SAP account manger or sales representative to find out about your specific situation in detail.
Hope that helps,

What are the pros and cons of using a port system.

Hello All,
I'm a new explorer in the OS X UNIX world, and have installed macports, and, for the most part, succeeded in building and using a number of scientific applications.
I have noted a somewhat negative attitude by some on the use of port systems, while others seem quite content with them.
When making my decision to use macports, these "selling points" seemed desirable to me:
¤ Confines ported software to a private “sandbox” that keeps it from intermingling with your operating system and its vendor-supplied software to prevent them from becoming corrupted.
¤ Allows you to create pre-compiled binary installers of ported applications to quickly install software on remote computers without compiling from source code.
Especially the first point seems valuable, but am I deluding myself? Or, am I losing functionality/ flexibility? Or, am I just missing out on manually installing lots of dependents?
_I'm not trying to start a feud, here._
I'm just looking for some pointers (preferably well-substantiated) from those more knowledgeable than me, before I am any further committed to a choice I might later regret.
Thanks,
PWK

The biggest drawback/complaint I have is that you're bound by the implementation/installation policy of whoever built the port.
For example, take the installation issue - all software gets installed into some specific directory which is great one one hand - fewer compatibility issues with conflicting versions from what Apple provide. The downside, though, is that nothing on your machine will use these versions unless/until you tweak them.
For example, maybe you want to install the MacPorts version of PHP, great, but the standard Apache won't use that, so you either need to install the MacPorts version of Apache, or tweak your Apache installation to use the non-standard PHP version.
Well, what about PATHs, I hear you ask? well, sure, you could prepend the MacPorts/fink/whatever directory to your $PATH, but then you always use the MacPorts/fink/whatever version of any installed software which might not be what you want.
This becomes more of an issue in a multi-server environment where you have multiple systems that all need tweaking/maintaining - nothing worse than setting up a new server by copying an existing installation, only to find that it depends on MacPorts/fink/whatever being installed.
The corollary to this is that these package managers often install ancillary software that you do not need, nor want. It might have improved since I last looked, but installing either MacPorts or fink, for example, installs whole new versions of perl, GNU tools (gzip/gunzip, etc.), curl, and more - they even install new copies of openssl/ssh.
I don't want these. These already exist on my system so what are they needed for? Why can't they use the standard copies? Are they 'tweaked' in some way? How? why?
The secondary issue is that you are limited to the port's implementation - especially compile options - which may not be ideal for your machine.
Unlike most GUI-based software, much open-source software uses compile-time options to configure the executable. Now the port installer might do a reasonable job of tweaking the installation, but it's not psychic so there will be cases where you end up with sub-optimal installations. Sure, they might work well enough, but that doesn't beat knowing what those options are up-front and building your own.
Now there have been cases where I've tried to install software and almost given up when faced with a daunting list of dependencies (try RRD, or PHP w/ GD, for example) and have almost given up, but when you succeed the satisfaction of getting it working, plus the fact you now know how to do it counts for a lot.
Now, do I wish that Apple would do a better job of keeping up with the latest versions of the open source software they include in Mac OS X? absolutely - isn't that what Software Update is all about??). But I also wish the port maintainers would spend more of their time updating the original source configure and make scripts to incorporate whatever changes they're making to the code so that Mac users can easily use the same source distribution as other UNIX flavors.
And right there is the final rub IMHO - all the while the port managers create their distributions of common tools Mac OS X is treated like a poor step-child that's kept in the cellar. OK, maybe not that bad, but there's no reason why anyone who wants to install open source software on a Mac should need much more than:
(download>
./configure
make
sudo make install
it really isn't all that hard. Too often the port managers perpetuate the myth that Mac OS X is too different from other UNIX systems to work with the standard tools that everyone else knows.
Now, maybe I'm also too old for this game since you always downloaded and built tools yourself when I started, and maybe package managers on Linux (which may have the same issues I've complained about) have helped elevate Linux in the mindset of a younger generation who are looking for a quick fix. All I can say to that is…
GET OFF MY LAWN! :-D

Use of Logical Systems - Compliance Cal +ve's and -ve's

Hello
We are looking at setting up a logical system to connect all our various systems to CC..... rather than entering each system individually in each of the functions.
Does anyone have any experience they can share with regards to use of logical systems?
I can only see positives - given that you add a Logical system once to a Function and then when a new system comes along, you just update the Logical System.
However I am interested to hear what do you think of using of logical systems and if there are any downsides?
Thanks

I always use LOGICAL connectors as this allows you to more easily manipulate the ruleset and teh systems that it is connected to.

Cannot add BW SAP system in CMC Authentication\Entitlement System

Hi,
I've re-installed Edge XI 3.1 SP3, Explorer/Polestar SP2 and finally SAP Integration Kit SP3 on Windows 2008 & SQL Server 2008 after a consultant came onsite to do this 4 months ago. I wanted the practice and its a pilot installation only.
I cannot seem to add my SAP BW Dev system to the Entitlement system from within the CMC - Authentication - SAP section however. I 've got the .dll's in the right places, I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the Integration Kit. restarting the Tomcat server, etc to no avail. I've also had a read of Ingo's blog and am sure I've followed all his steps correctly.
Can this only be a case of not following the installation correctly or am I missing something else? Any help appreciated please.
Thanks.

Hi,
I've had success in getting the Entitlement System connected.
Basically on top of completely uninstalling everything SAP and BO related, renaming folders to .OLD and rebooting, then installing Edge and SAP GUI....I then followed these steps before installing Integration Kit:
To install InfoView automatically, you must install and configure SAP Java Connector components:
To do this, copy librfc32.dll and librfc32u.dll, to the appropriate folder.
u2022 On 32-bit Windows: %windir%\system32
u2022 On 64-bit Windows: %windir%\sysWOW64
Copy sapjcorfc.dll to <BusinessObjects install directory ..\win32_x86.
Then copy sapjco.jar to the application serveru2019s shared library folder. For example, on a 64-bit Windows system with Tomcat 5.5, copy sapjco.jar to H:\Program Files (x86)\Business Objects\Tomcat55\shared\lib
N.B. Had to create folder shared\lib in H:\Program Files (x86)\Business Objects\Tomcat55.
Rebooted.
This is similar to and in addition to Ingo's steps, however he does refer to the Integration Install guide, which is where the above is mostly taken from.
I could then UPDATE the new BW Dev system from the CMC and then see all available roles.
Thanks for your prompt advice and support Ingo.
