XL Reporter in Sap 8.8 PL 16running On Server 2008 R2  and SQL 2008 R2

Within the above environment (XL Reporter in Sap 8.8  PL 16 running On Server 2008 R2  and SQL 2008 R2)
Xl reporter is loading and appears to work fine until you look at the spreadsheet result
It is completely blank except for the titles
Yet Excel Macros and the attachment paths are defined correctly
As can be seen when we export any report to Excel successfully
I've had another consultant look at my setup carefully just to be sure
He can't figure out why
Anyone with similar results
I would appreciate any comments
Georges Ostiguy

Even something as simple as a list of BP 's and phone number gives a blank report
When my friend who knows xl reporter much more than I do tried, he managed to get the
BP numbers but nothing further
I then brought him to another server with the same configuration , same result
He then tried it on one of his own servers with similar config = same result
Server 2008 Standard R2 64bit
MSSQL 2008 R2
SAP 8.8 PL 16
Sample demo database
I don't get it

  • SAP R3 4.5b running on Windows 2008 R2 and SQL 2008 R2

    Hi
    Trying to obtain information on compatability of SAP R3 4.5b running on Windows 2008 R2 and SQL 2008 R2 ?
    I understand that SAP may not support this? But would it actually work? Assuming we have a third party supporting it?
    Jay

    Hi Jay,
    You may check the support in PAM http://service.sap.com/pam.
    Ideally SAP shall not support this environment.
    Reason being:
    1) SAP kernel for R3 4.5b not available for windows 2008 R2
    2) Compatible database library not available for R3 4.5b on MSSQL 2008 R2.
    with above 2 reason you shall not be able to install R3 4.5b on Windows 2008R2 with MSSQL 2008 R2 database.

  • SAP Conversion Agent for PI 7.1 EHP 1 and Windows 2008 Support

    Hello
    I have read that some people were able to run SAP Conversion Agent on a PI 7.1 EHP1 Installation on Windows 2008 Sever. But in the Product Availability Matrix there is no support for 2008 yet.
    In the SAP Library (http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwpi71/helpdata/en/43/fc39c16bfb025ee10000000a1553f7/frameset.htm) under the release notes for SAP Conversion Agent there is still version 8.5, but when I install the actual Support Package I have Conversion Agent 8.6 running and according to information on the informatica.com site this version is running under 2008!
    Has anybody clear and actual information about which OS the newest SAP Conversion Agent for PI 7.1 EHP1 supports? Or has anyone experiance on Conversion Agent and Windows 2008 Server?
    Thanks
    Christoph

    Hi Mark
    Thanks for your reply! Fact is that in the actual Package (SP06) the version of Conversion Agent Engine supplied is not 8.5.5 as in the SAP Note mentioned, it is version 8.6.0:
    C:\Documents and Settings\pi1adm>CM_console -v
    Engine-Version: 8.6.0(Build:30)
    Engine-Syntaxversion:4.00.10
    I will oben a ticket for that ...

  • SAP ECC 6 Upgrade to 2008 R2 and Virtualization success/failure stories

    Hi Sap community,
    I'm planning the following upgrade on my SAP Ecc 6.0 :
    Source CI : physical server on windows 2003 x64 SP2,
    Target CI : virtual server under vsphere 5.0 Windows 2008 x64 R2,
    Source DB : physical server on windows 2003 x64 SP2, SQL 2005 SP2
    Target DB : virtual server on windows 2008 x64 R2, SQL 2008 R2
    Target physical boxes are not the same as source..
    I've already verified pre-requisites, best practices, upgrade path on notes, forums,etc ..
    What I haven't found, are the different experiences (success or failure stories) people had with performances while performing such an upgrade, especially with the path I want to use :
    1) P2V the 2 servers
    2) Upgrade to W2008 R2
    3) Upgrade SQL to SQL 2008 R2
    Although technically it works (tested on sandbox) I'm just wondering in a long term and with load, if such a enviroment will run without issues in production.
    I know that some of you will advice me to create new clean installs and use "system copy" but I would like to avoid changing my hostnames because of dependencies (with BI, CRM, transport system etc...) UNLESS someone tells me that he experienced the P2V method and lived a nightmare.
    My second question would be : for the DB : has someone tested having DB on VMDK disks versus RDM disks.
    Thank you
    Jorge

    Answer to your above 3 questions : approach has been successful. I had done it at 2 places.
    My second question would be : for the DB : has someone tested having DB on VMDK disks versus RDM disks.
    Please find more details about VMDK and RDM in the links below. Further more you can have maximum details about your query from the link below.

  • Reports from SAP BPC NW 7.5

    Hi All,
    Our Landscape:
    SAP ECC EhP1
    SAP BW 7.10
    SAP BOBJ XI 3.1 (WebI/Crystal/Xcelsius)
    SAP BPC NW 7.5
    We are new to BPC. We would like to know where do we need to develope the reports on BPC data. Can some one help me on this. If some one have any best practices or options that where we can develope the reports, pls let me know
    Like we can do reporting directly on BPC with only couple of reports from BW/BOBJ or all reports from BW/BOBJ.
    Here we are planning to use BW as warehouse solution and BOBJ tools for reporitng on BW data.
    Thanks,
    Bala

    Hi Bala,
    BPC is a planning & a reporting tool. It can also be used for Consolidation. As mentioned in the previous reply, the data in BW has to be made available in BPC Application (cube) to be able to report it out.
    You might need to create transformation files and conversions files between your BW cubes and the BPC cubes to realise the data transfer to BPC application (cube). Note, BPC cubes are automatically generated when you create an application from the BPC front end.
    Please refer to some good introductory blogs available on SDN to get to know the BPC terminology and BW terms. Then BPC has an reporting tool in itself. You can create reporting using EVDRE for example which displays the data landed in BPC cubes. This typically will have actual data (loaded from BW), plan data (planned through Input Schedules or flat file data loads).
    Hope this give some brief idea.
    Thanks

  • AP aging report from SAP

    We found that AP aging report from SAP  is not tie with Balance in Balance sheet.  Please advise how to find the report which match with our requirement.
    Concept of the AP aging report is to age outstanding AP as at the end of month (Open item date).  We found that A/P aging report which we currently use is cannot match to balance per G/L. (Please see detail in attached file). And the balance in AP aging report is always changes if we retrieve data on difference timing.
    Additionally, this report is not show the reconciliation account, please advise whether it is possible to show summary line which sum by reconciliation account.
    Please advise if you have another SAP transaction or any advise on this.
    kindly suggest

    Hi,
    For ageing report please go to fbl3n and go for change layout there is a option for ageing and posting period choose those two and subtotal it according to posting then you will get period wise meand month wise ageing  report for vendor.

  • Parked Item report in SAP

Is there any report that would provide me with a list of all documents that are currently parked on various vendor accounts along with the names of each of the persons with whom the document is pending with for approval?

  • Performance issue of BI Reports in SAP Enterprise portal -in SAPNW2004s

    Dear friends,
    We are integrating BI Reports in SAP Enterprise Portal 7.0 ( SAP NW- 2004s).The reports are running properly .But the issue here is reports are taking long time to open and leading it to performance effect.
    Reports in BEX( Bi side) working lilttle better than EP platform.
    And Even BI team is looking for ways to improve the performance.
    Could you please share your ideas to implement in portal side to increase the performance.
    Thanks and Regards
    Ratnakar Reddy

    Hello Mr. Reddy,
    There are two possibilities for slow performance in BW reports, so we need to look into wether its slow in the BW system or at the frontend.
    If the problem resides in the BW system then we should be able to trace the reports
    and you can go for a SAP EW or GV sessin and SAP will provide recommendations.
    If the problem resides at the frontend
    Update the frontend servers to the latest frontend release.
    Recommended Frontend Release 700
    Recommended Frontend Patch      18
    Update the frontend servers to the lates SAP GUI release as soon as possible.
    Minimum Recommended SAP GUI Release 6.40
    Your frontend PCs should fulfill the following requirements:
    Each frontend PC should have 500 MHz and 128 MB main memory.
    Because of a limit in the addressable memory, Windows 95 is not supported as Frontend OS for 3.X BW Systems. Please refer to SAP Notes 161993, 321973 and 366626 for details.
    Please also check SAP Note 147519 "Maintenance strategy/ deadlines 'SAPGUI'".
    If you still require any assistance from SAP support then raise a message under component ( probably BW-BEX-ET-WEB).
    Provide your input, if you have any.
    Thank you,

  • Performance issue of BI reports in SAP Enterprise portal

    Dear Friends,
    We have  integrated BI reports with SAP Enterprise portal 7.0.Reports are running properly But the issue is reports are taking more time to dispsaly its content and leading it to  performance effect.
    In Bex ( BI side) reports  performance is little better than  SAP EP platform. BI Team also looking for ways to improve performance  at BI side.
    Could you please share your valuable ideas to improve  the performance at SAP EP side also ..
    Thanks and Regards
    Ratnakar Reddy

    Hi ratnakar,
    The first step is to identify which component is causing the performance problem. Run your report in the portal but try appending the string &PROFILING=X in the end of the URL. This will generate BI statistics which you can use to see which component (Java stack, ABAP stack, Database) is causing the performance issue.
    Hope this helps.

    Thomas Marsetyo

    Hi,
    In your report footer, set it to create a new page before it is printed (In 'Section Expert', select the Report Footer -> 'Paging' tab -> Check 'New Page Before' checkbox). Throw your Terms & Conditions into the Report Footer section.
    If you already have a Report Footer that you want to keep, just split the footer into two sections (Right-click the Report Footer section -> 'Insert Section Below') and follow the same procedure for the newly created section.
