SSO issue with BI 4.0 BW and ECC

[Former Member]

We currently have SAP BW 7.3 BOBJ 4.0 ECC and SAP portals.

We have configured SAP BW, BOBJ and SAP Portal with SSO and that works perfectly fine.

The issue is that i have Crystal Reports running on ECC that have also to be published to the Portal.

All BW crystal reports run fine and ECC fails because of SSO -

What am i missing here -

Do i need to do something different for ECC

In CMC Authentication i have added SAP ECC and imported a role - So now i have 2 ids - one from BW and the other from ECC.

I know this is not the way to do it but it still does not work.

What do i need to do to have ECC and BW reports to work with SSO from SAP portal.

Thanks

Hi,

I assume that your BusinessObjects Server has the SAP Authentication for BW and ECC configured ?

Are the reports for BW and ECC been called from the portal ?

if so then you have one BOE Server, 2 SAP environments and 2 SAP authentications configured and to achieve SSO for all systems you will have to combine the 2 SAP Systems via SNC (for XI 3.1) or via the SSO Token Service in BI4

Thank you for your reply Ingo

*Yes *

Yes

We are on BI4 and we have set up SSO Token for BW -

Are you saying that we have to set up SSO token for BW as well as ECC -

In CMC - Authentication - SAP - Options -SAP SSO Service - it does not give me an option to have 2 systems

How do i add ECC system there too.

Hi,

the SSO Token Service is working very similar like a SNC Setup.

You are establishing "trust" between the systems. I would suggest you take a look at the Installation Guide for the BI4 system and there in the chapter for the SAP configuration.

Basically you create a certificate for your BI4 Server

import the certificate to the SAP Server

Configure the CMC

In your case you would have to repeat the step of importing the certificate for each SAP Server.

Hi Ingo,

I have a quick question regarding setting up SSO with BOBJ 4.0, SAP ECC, and BW 7.0.

Would the above work with the following versions: SAP ECC 6.4 SP 24, and BW 7.0 SP 24??

Do you know of any good documentation I could refer to beside the SAP BO Admin Guide?

Thanks a lot,

Hi,

You really need 7.01 SP06, as outlined on the PAM here: http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc/index?rid=/library/uuid/10ccbdf2-139f-2e10-61a0-d4af67b6257b&override...
