Warnings when mporting Transports for Integration Kit for SAP

Can anyone confirm if it is typical to get the following warning messages after importing transports to BW?
Table /CRYSTAL/OSQL_FIELD_ENTRY was activated (warning for the dependent tables)
Table /CRYSTAL/OSQL_OBJECT_ENTRY was activated (warning for the dependent tables)
Table /CRYSTAL/OSQL_RLS_CHK_ENTRY was activated (warning for the dependent tables)
Table /CRYSTAL/OSQL_RLS_FCN_ENTRY was activated (warning for the dependent tables)
Table /CRYSTAL/OSQL_RLS_VAL_ENTRY was activated (warning for the dependent tables)
Seem like these are simply warnings and not hard errors.

assuming it is the first time they were imported you should be ok

License key for "Integration Kit For SAP".

Hello, I be install the integration kit for sap with the license code provided by SAP and also Crystal Report 2008 v1 but the menu opcion "SAP" not appear in the this programm.
But using a temporal license key the menu "SAP" is there.
¿I need a new license key for activate the menu "SAP" in crystal report 2008 v1? ¿why don't appear with the license code provided by SAP?
Regards.
Enrique.

Hi Enrique,
during the installation of SAP GUI 7.01 you should additionally select the option to install the BEx Tools for BW 3.5 (Even if you plan to use BW 7.x). If this option was selected and you install afterwards CR 2008 then the SAP Menu appears. As you can see this is not a licence issue rather this is happening just because a component of the SAP GUI has not been installed.

Dear All,
We have Ecc6 EHP5 server ( only ABAP instance not JAVA) installed also BW by default in same server we just create new client ( 300 as BW client ) from RSA1
OS is Suse linux 11.
We installed Business objects EDGE 3.1 in different server which is also Suse Linux 11 server
and then installed client tools like Xcelsius , Crystal Reports etc in user Laptop which is base on windows xp.
now we installed Integration kit for SAP in the server where we installed Business objects EDGE 3.1 ( in Suse linrux machine )
during installed of integration kit for SAP no input related to BW server because BOBJ connect to BW ( that is why we installed integration kit for SAP) and why we need java connector we don't have JAVA instance, and what to do next
Regards
Shahid

Thanks Ingo Hilgefortfor your reply.
My queries is
1.    We have only abap instance , Java instance is mandatory for BOBJ ?
2.    We installed BOBJ edge 3.1 in Linux server and in same server we installed Integration kit for SAP ( during the installation of
       integration kit no input related to connected server ( BW server ) how to integrate BOBJ edge 3.1 with BW server) what
       Next ?
3.   after installation of integration kit and import transport request in BW server ( which in actually act as client in ECC 6 server)

SAP Integration Kit for Crystal Reports

Hello,
I read Ingo Hilgefort's blog on BusinessObjects and SAP Part 2.
/people/ingo.hilgefort/blog/2008/02/19/businessobjects-and-sap-part-2
Does the current trial version of crystal reports available from businessobjects.com have this integration kit embedded in it?
If not, where can i find it?

Suraj

hi shenoy,
SAP Integration Kit
The SAP integration kit includes drivers to allow connectivity to both R3 and Business Warehouse (BW). In addition, it includes a BW toolbar for Crystal Reports, a specific version of InfoView with Role-based links, sample iViews for Enterprise Portal, and an SDK in Java, COM, or .NET.
Reporting off R3 Data
The kit includes two drivers to allow Crystal Reports to connect to the ABAP data dictionary via a remote function call or RFC.
The Open SQL driver allows the user to connect to SAP R3, displaying the field and the short text description of the tables and fields. The developer can then join the tables accordingly, using the database expert, and then select the relevant fields from which to report. This driver displays not only transparent tables, but includes views, pool tables, cluster tables, ABAP data clusters, and ABAP functions. This driver is geared toward a technical person with functional expertise in joining the tables and then creating the report.

This driver displays not only transparent tables, but includes views, pool tables, cluster tables, ABAP data clusters, and ABAP functions. This driver is geared toward a technical person with functional expertise in joining the tables and then creating the report.
Note
In Crystal Reports, you cannot check the SQL generated using the Show SQL Query option from the Database menu. You can check what Open SQL was generated by using SAP transactions.
The InfoSet driver allows the user to connect to an existing InfoSet, as defined by SAP transaction SQ02. Alternatively, you can use an existing ABAP query, as defined by SAP transaction SQ01. The benefit of this driver is that the user does not need to know where the data is stored or how to join the tables. Another advantage is that any prompts defined in the InfoSet become parameters in Crystal Reports.
Note
To test the InfoSet query, run the InfoSet using your SAP GUI and ensure that it is pulling the required data first before testing it in Crystal Reports.
Reporting off BW Data
When reporting off of BW data, the Business Objects' Integration Kit consists of three drivers that are used to pull data.
The BW Query driver enables the user to connect to a BW query. To enable selection of a query with this driver, Crystal Reports has its own toolbar, as shown in Figure 15.3, and the user needs to select the New Report icon from this toolbar. The user then selects the required BW query, and thus displays a listing of fields available in the query. The user can then create the report using any of those fields. Variables defined in the query automatically become Crystal Reports parameters. After the user has finished building the report, the user saves the report using the BW toolbar. This saves the report to BW, and if the user selects the option to do so, automatically publishes the report to Enterprise.
Figure 15.3. Crystal Reports after the SAP integration kit is loaded. Note the SAP menu and BW toolbar.
[View full size image]
Two new drivers have been added to the XI R2 version of the SAP Integration Kit.
The MDX query driver supports using Crystal Reports to report off either a SAP BW query or a BW Cube.
Furthermore, it adds additional functionality by providing support for
A structure in both the row and column of the BW query
Hierarchy node and hierarchy node variables
Free characteristics in a BW query
The Operational Data Store or ODS driver exposes the ODS tables, so that they look much like the tables of any relational database. However, because of the structure of the objects, it considers them to be like a database stored procedure.
Connecting to the ODS objects is not performed with the SAP toolbar described here, but rather by selecting the driver from the Data Explorer as shown in Chapter 1, "Creating and Designing Basic Reports." After the user has finished building the report, the report can be saved back to BW and published to Business Objects Enterprise by selecting the Automatically Publish to Enterprise check box, as shown in Figure 15.4.
Figure 15.4. The additional options after saving a Crystal Report to SAP BW.
Note
This publishing method requires some setup. Please refer to the Installation documentation for further details.
Note
Both the ODS and MDX drivers require SAP transports to be loaded on the SAP BW system. Please refer to the Installation CD in the Transports folder for further details.
Using OLAP or Web Intelligence to Report off BW Data
Included in the SAP Integration Kit are specific drivers to allow OLAP Intelligence and Web Intelligence to report off of SAP BW.
To connect to a BW cube or query using OLAP Intelligence, open the connection browser and select Add. Select SAP Business Information Warehouse and then proceed to fill in the relevant data, as shown in Figure 15.5.
Figure 15.5. The information required to connect to a BW cube or query from OLAP Intelligence.
[View full size image]
After you are connected, select the query or cube and process to build the report, as described in Chapter 19, "Creating OLAP Intelligence Reports."
Web Intelligence is new to XI R2 and requires that a universe be built on a BW Cube or Query. However, to aid in this process, Designer builds the universe for you. To do this, select SAP from the list of connects and fill out the required information, as displayed in Figure 15.6.
Figure 15.6. The information required to connect to a BW cube or query from Web Intelligence.
[View full size image]
Finish the remainder of the wizard and when you click OK, Designer generates the Universe for you. It may be necessary to move some of the objects around to suit your needs, but when you are finished, export to Business Objects Enterprise.
Note
Only the BW query driver does not require the query be released for external access. The Web Intelligence, OLAP Intelligence, and MDX drivers require the user to release the BW query. To release a query, select the query properties in the BW Query Designer and select the Extended Tab and then check Allow External Access to This Query.
Viewing the Reports
Your SAP reports can be viewed either via the SAP integration kit's InfoView or via SAP Enterprise Portal 6. The integration kit provides a number of sample iViews that can be imported by a portal administrator. These include
Folder iView The folders a user has access to are displayed, and from here a user can run her reports.
Alert iView Shows all the alerts that have been triggered by Crystal Reports. The user can then click on the report to view the report. The creation of alerts is defined in Chapter 11, "Using Record Selections and Alerts for Interactive Reporting."
Thumbnail iView This iView displays the Crystal Report as a thumbnail of the report. The user can then click on the thumbnail to run the report.
Note
These are sample iViews. The organization can create its own iViews via the provided SDK.
BusinessObjects InfoView for SAP is a unique version of InfoView designed for integration with SAP BW systems. This integration includes features such as the ability to log on to InfoView using your SAP username and password. Related to authentication is the ability to access your roles and the Crystal Reports saved to these roles. The roles are defined in Enterprise as folders. The user can also schedule reports in the different languages loaded into SAP BW. This creates an instance for each language.

SAP Integration kit for BO XIR2 with Crystal XI for BI 7.0 Front end

Hello Team,
We are in a little fix.
We have BOE XIR2, Crystal XI and working with old version of BI front-end 3.5.
We are upgrading to BI 7.0 frontend, but I am not able to trace out the SAP Integration kit for combination of BOE XIR2, Crystal XI and BI7.0.
Is such a thing available, If yes can someone send a link to that.
Regards
Lalan Kanade

Hi,
Thanks for the quick reply
I could trace this document. "BusinessObjects Enterprise XI Release 2 SP3 for Windows"
I checked in "Supported Data Sources for Crystal Rep" section, extract below
SAP BW Server 3.0b SAP GUI 620 or 640
SAP BW Server 3.1c SAP GUI 620 or 640
SAP BW Server 3.5 SAP GUI 640.
But we are using BW Server 7.0 with GUI 7.1 and that working fine even with BOXIR2 and Crystal XI with Old Front End for BI 3.X.
But when we are testing with BOXIR2 and Crystal XI with BI New Front End 7.0 its missing components from the query output.
So the SAP Integration kIt seems old & we need a new Kit which would work with BI New Front End 7.0.
Any suggestions on that
Regards
Lalan

Integration Kit for SAP - Open SQL access to tables. List incomplete.

After we install the BO integration kit for SAP and CR 2008 we were able to connect to SAP and open SAP Data Dictionnary tables (Open SQL access).
I have a problem however:
when I display the list of available tables, the is not showing all the tables in the SAP system. I believe it stops at some point.
I see all tables with low letters or starting with /BIC...
I have custom tables with names ranging from ZR1 to ZR5.
Of these I only see tables up to ZR2*.
My guess is :
either that the table list displayed is limited to a certain mumber of tables
or that there are some authorisations issues to be solved to view all tables (but the same SAP User sees all tables in SE11)
or there is a table related setting in the Data dictionnary that makes some tables visible by CR and other not
Thanks in advance for any answer.
Claudio Ciardelli

correct - it stops at one point because showing you more than 30.000 tables doesn't really help. Right click on your connection (server entry), select the menu options, there is an entry called Table name like. in your case enter Z% and hit F5 for a refresh and you will only get tables shown starting with Z

BO Integration Kit for SAP - Linux

All,
we want to schedule and publish by email reports, created with Crystal Reports 2008 on queries in SAP BW 7.0.
To check the fonctionality we installed Crystal Reports Server 2008 on Linux, Crystal Reports 2008 on Windows. For data access of Crystal Report 2008 to BW we installed the BO Integration Kit for SAP. All software could be downloaded in evaluation versions.
Now we can upload the reports into the CMC of Crystal Reports Server 2008, but when we execute the report, we get the message "failed to load database information". I suppose it is necessary to install the BO Integration Kit for SAP also on the Server side to have data access to BW. Where can I get the evaluation version of BO Instal-lation Kit for SAP for the OS Suse Linux 10.0. ?
Thanks,
Thomas

Hi,
Crystal Reports Server does not support the SAP Integration Kit. You need at least the BusinessObjects Edge or BusinessObjects Enterprise system installed.
You need the server environment and the SAP Integration Kit server components.
you can see the supported platforms at :

Publishing Reports with BO Integration Kit for SAP

Post Author: Daniel Stoerzinger
CA Forum: General
I have the BO Integration Kit for SAP installed locally and have been able to publish the reports to the Enterprise Server. I'm also able to Open Reports from the SAP tab. However, I've created a lot of "test" reports which I no longer want to see in the list of reports. I've removed the reports from BO CMC but the Open Reports tab (SAP) still displays the ones I've removed from CMC. Where is this list stored? Are the report definitions stored within SAP? I've heard that the report definition is stored in SAP and the physical report is saved to the BO Enterprise Server. But no one within our SAP team has any idea and claim these are stored on the BO server.
(Someone tell me I'm not the only one in the universe trying to use Crystal Reports with SAP)

You can use the "Crystal Content Admin workbench" (transaction /crystal/rptadmin) and delete the reports from SAP BW and BOE ins a single step
its part of the Transports of the SAP Integration Kit. You need to import the transports into the BW System

Integration kit for SAP Solutions

Hi gurus,
i've encountered a problem with BO XI 3.0 Integration for SAP Solutions.
I've installed in a virtual machine BO XI Edge series for NON-SAP solutions evaluation copy,when I try to run web InfoView everything working fine. The infoview path is http://<servername>:6405/InfoViewApp and it take itself the "logon.jsp" file.
Now my goal was connect BO and my BW server. I've downloaded BO Integration kit for SAP solutions 3.1 but installation locked for a WSDL (I have no idea what WSDL is) than i try with 3.0 version.
I've downloaded JCO jar and dll files (sapjco3-ntamd64-3.0.2) and putted them on the right (i think) path.
I've installed Integration kit and installation goes fine.
Now when i try to catch infoview page 404 not found Internet explorer page is show but CMS is on,intelligent agent too.
It can be a tomcat problem?
Can anyone help me?
thanks in advance!

Guys you were good!!!every installation things was right!!
I've the last question about SAP Authentication: when I try to call the SAP auth page i retrieve the follow error:
HTTP Status 404 - /SAP/jsp/auth/sapsec_logsys.faces
type Status report
message /SAP/jsp/auth/sapsec_logsys.faces
description The requested resource (/SAP/jsp/auth/sapsec_logsys.faces) is not available.
Apache Tomcat/5.5.20
I think is a Jco jar error,it's right?
In the (awesome) ingo blog there is: "put sapjco.jar file into the path C:\program files\...\tomcat55\shared\lib\, but i have not shared folder, than before installation i putted sapjco.jar into C:\program files\...\tomcat55\server\lib\ folder..was wrong?
thanks a lot guys!

Can I Install without BO Enterprise a BO Integration Kit for SAP -Server

Helo Experts,
I want to Install a Business Objects Integration Kit 3.0 for SAP on our Server. Is a Business Objects Enterprise needed for this installation ?????
Thanks
C

Hi, Caner.
When you are installing Integration Kit you have 3 options: Desktop, Server, Custom.
Of course your choice depends on your requirements.
1. Desktop. If you plan to work with BW-source locally in Crystal or in WebI Rich Client this option for you. You donnt need to install BOE, it is working with client tools.
2. Server. This variant is suitable for work with BOE. If you plan to share your reports that based on BW-sources via BOE you MUST to install this on your BOE.
3. Custom. For "power"-users. If you choose this point by default it works like Desktop options, but it doesnt ask you to install Crystal reports. Usually I work with this kind installation.
Regards.

Anychart 5 integration kit for APEX

New Features of BOE 4.0 integration kit for SAP

Dear colleagues,
I am looking for a presentation that shows the new features of SAP BOE XI 4.0 integration kit for SAP (BW), compared to XI 3.1. I have for example read that regarding WebI it will be possible to connect directly to BEx queries without universe. It is correct ?
I look to several documents on the market place, but there is no clear document about these new features...
Thanks for your help.
Regards,
Thibaud

no "integration kit" in version 4 - its all nicely embedded into the core product.
you are correct - webi can direct connect (using BICS) and also can source from an Analysis View (which is an output of either Analysis Services OLAP edition or the Microsoft edition (excel plugin). you also get a new universe layer (.UNX) which gives you a much better view of your underlying BEx queries/Cubes and allows you to combine with aother data sources.
lots more info in the product manuals to v4 which are available at...
http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/
(just change the product drop down to "SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence Platform"
some specific info on SAP BW connectivity is here...

The OS Version is AIX 6.1
The system is throwing following error during installation of integration kit
<.........>/patches/patchlevel.sh: invalid patch name: unsupported.aix.release
AIX: Your system is missing required components (STU00120):
<.........>/setup/patches/patchlevel.sh: invalid patch name: unsupported.aix.release
If you continue your installation may not work correctly. (STU00109)
Can you please let me know if Integration Kit 3.1 is not supported for AIX 6.1 OR
Is it recommended to use another version of Integration Kit for AIX 6.1 ?
Thanks.

Vidyut Kichambare

Thanks Ingo,
I did comment on "oscheck.$distrOS.sh" from install.sh and could finish the integration kit installation successfully (with BOE XI 3.1 SP2 aleady installed)
Is it ok to keep this installation ? Will SAP be able to support this in future if required?
