BO XI 3.1 SP3 SSO with CMC and Webi Rich Client

[Former Member]

Hello,

Is it possible in BO XI 3.1 SP3 to use SSO with CMC and Webi Rich Client ?

It works fine with InfoView, Designer and Desktop Intelligence.

Hi Daniel,

I know this is an old post but still wanted to know if you were able to do SSO for CMC and Webi Rich Client?

How did you do the SSO for designer?

Thanks in advance

It is possible.

I think it is recommended to have Enterprise authentication for CMC for the administrators.

Thank you for you quick answer.

The second question is how to launch Webi Rich Client or CMC with SSO ?

I've tried the following to launch Webi Rich Client but it doen't work :

WebIRichClient.exe -user my_user -pass my_password -auth "enterprise" -system "my_server:6400"

For deski, the following works fine

busobj.exe -user "" -pass "" -system "my_server:6400" -auth "ad"

Hi,

What kind of SSO authentication are you trying to set up? (AD, LDAP,...)

I think it's AD regarding your command line.

But be aware that in SSO, you don't need to configure the command line to run the client.

Have a look at the following guide.

[Configuring Manual Kerberos Authentication and-or SSO in Distributed Environments with XI 3.1 SP3.pdf|https://bosap-support.wdf.sap.corp/sap/support/sapnotes/public/services/attachment.htm?iv_key=002007204200000183782010&iv_version=0005&alt=2BCE4CB10DF674B172F4F3F7B32A284F49333135358877720E883731B332AF34CACD2AB52C0A2C8DCACA09084EF4CB494E4E0F2ECE8E2F89772908C9CE70CD2DF77675F7F2D1750C09514BCECFCFCE4C8DCF4BCC4DB5F575F4F4F3F57771F571F6F70B01B25D83D4120B0A722092A599504EB16D715E3E00&iv_guid=DF838310BFAAE8F1B486001A64C54696]

Regarding accessing CMC with SSO, it's not recomended at all as if you break this access, than you can't connect anymore to the CMC and modify settings.

Philippe

Hello,

Thank you for the link to the guide.

I use AD authentication with Kerberos and It works fine for InfoView & Desktop Intelligence.

I try to do the same for Webi Rich Client and CMC but i didn't see how to do so in SAP documentation.

Regards.
