It's possible to embed a BO report (on premiese) into SCP?

[german_avanzato]

Hi everyone,

We have a development on going in SCP. Its an application sort like a CRM. What we want to achieve, is to view information of our SAP Business Object (on Premiese) inside this application, like the reports were actualy in the application.

Maybe this could be done with a openDocument url, but how can we expose the internal url to the SCP? With the SAP Cloud Connector?

The SCP has a component to do this(embed), like a iView or something like that?

Thanks

Hi - which BusinessObjects reporting tool are you using? Web Intelligence?

Hi tammy.powlas3,

Right now we only have Lumira Designer application, but in a future most likely it will be Web Intelligence too. Certainly we are not going to use Crystal Reports.

Thanks

Opendocument can be used to embed BOE report into anything.
As to how to expose internal BOE URL to cloud/internet - you need to ask your IT team.

Hi denis.konovalov

Do you know if SCP has a special component to do this (in the fiori library for example)? Or its need to be done like manually pointing to the url address in a Fiori tile?

My concern is that we can point a url to the public ip address:port , and redirect through a firewall the request to the Business Object server. What I dont know, if this is going to work because the public address is different from the openDocument url.

Thanks

Hi German,

you can do this by a HTML5 (Neo) or Approuter application which acts as a reverse proxy to your BO server. Check out my sample applications HTML5UserAPI and HTML5UserAPIforCF.

I'm not familiar with SCP, but as long as the routing is correct and opendoc URL is reachable from client browser -- it should work in any app/web page.
Let's say your internal BOE web address is http://internal/opendocument .... and in your SCP it's http://external/opendoc -- if router/proxy/firewall/etc sends the call to http://external/opendoc to http://internal/opendoc -- it will work.
