Question:
Hello Everybody ,
Iam creating an iview for publishin BW Reports in Enterprise Portal with the iview name SAP BW Report iview ,it asks for BEx Web Application Query String and Application Parameters and we are stuck over that.Do we need to create some standard templates for it and then connect them to reports .What should we enter under these parameters.Kindly revert back.
When we launch the SAPBWWebAppDesigner for template designing,an error message is displayed as mentioned below.Kindly please check that and the reason for its display.Do we need to make certain configurations for the Webapplication server for BW ,if any one has a document /guide available for that,kindly please revert back.
Error:
"You are logged on to an application server that does not support HTTP.Some of the Web Application Designer functions are therefore not available.Do you want to logon to a different application server?"
We are also not able to connect to the Web Application Server of BW directly by putting the url of the WAS into our browser.Are any extra configurations needed for that on the BW side for WEBAS.
You can send me attachents on my Email id which is reachme.saumya@gmail.com.Revert back soon,
Thanks,
Somya
Answer:
Saumya,
Did you set up the integration for your BW system into the portal and did configure the web services for your BW system (SICF)?
You find everything you need in the IMG.
1)Go to transaction SPRO->
BW Customizing -> REporting relevant settings -> Integration into the SAP
Enterprise Portal
2)Go to transaction SPRO->
BW Customizing -> SAP Web Application Server -> Web Applications ->
Activate HTTP Services.
You find also further information in the SAP online help:

Hope that helps

Answer:
Hello ,
Please suggest wt all necessary WEB settings have to be made on BW side through SICF.
Secondly i did not get the link BW Customizing -> SAP Web Application Server -> Web Applications ->
Activate HTTP Services. I only got the link SAP Web Application Server but did not get Web Applications -> Activate HTTP Services under that.
Do we need to follow all the steps given under BW Integration with EP 6.0 steps in order to use SAP Report Iview in Portal to publish BW Reports.
Secondly we havent implemented SSO yet and we do not intend to implement it in near future .IS step 4 a must for Portal-BW Integration.
Lastly i have created RFC for BW in Portal but facing probles in creating RFC for Portal in BW .Can you specify in detail abt the parameters that we need to maintain here.i gone through its releant help in SPRO and even on Help site,but they are of no help.kindly plz suggest.Especially after entering all the parameters ,it displays the error
Error:
"Please specify a valid system alias without spaces"
and the alias we have entered is SAP_BW.
Kindly please suggest.
Regards,
Somya
