Introduction This workbook has been designed to provide you with practical, hands-on, experience using SAP

BusinessObjects Mobile BI solutions.

While completing the activities in this workbook, you will set up and configure an SAP BusinessObjects

system for mobile access, install SAP BusinessObjects Mobile for iPad and SAP BusinessObjects Explorer

for iPad, access and interact with BI content on an iPad, and develop BI content such as Explorer

information spaces and Web Intelligence documents for mobile devices.

As you work through the activities in this book, consider how the features and functionality can be

applied to solve business problems for your business or your clients.

Target Audience This workbook is suitable for anyone new to the SAP BusinessObjects Mobile BI who will be involved in

selling, demonstrating, or developing business intelligence solutions or content. Many end users will

also find these activities useful in learning the applications.

Learning Objectives After completing this workbook you will be able to:

Configure SAP BusinessObjects BI Platform for mobile access

Install SAP BusinessObjects Mobile and SAP BusinessObjects Explorer for iPad

Access and interact with content on mobile devices

Design Web Intelligence documents, Information spaces, and Exploration Views for mobile

devices.

Getting the Most from this Workbook It is strongly recommended that you do your best to complete the activities in the workbook without

referring to the solution guide whenever possible. The prerequisites and recommended tutorials

referred to in the activities should provide you with the knowledge required to successfully complete

the activities.

If you get stuck completing any of the activities, step by step solutions are provided in the workbook

solutions guide. However, simply clicking through the step by step solution instructions in the software

will typically be inadequate to learn how to build effective business intelligence solutions. If you need

the step by step solutions to complete any activity, after following the solution instructions, try to

complete the activity again, but without referring to the detailed solution steps.

Note for instructors: The solution steps are provided in a separate solution guide, which can be

provided to students after specific activities have been assigned. This will ensure that students do not

simply click through the solutions, but try to complete the activities on their own or with their peers.

STOP HERE: Prerequisites Before beginning the workbook activities, you should have an understanding of the SAP BusinessObjects

4.0 Business Intelligence Suite.

1. Complete the exercises in SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence Workbook 1: The Sports

Warehouse or have experience with the SAP BusinessObjects BI platform and applications.

2. Business Intelligence Platform and client tools.

To complete the activities in this workbook, you need access to a system with the following software installed, including the latest service packs. This workbook has been designed using feature service pack 2 of the BI platform and client tools patch 10.

i. SQL Server 2008 or higher (or other supported database software) ii. SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence platform

iii. SAP BusinessObjects Client Tools iv. SAP BusinessObjects Explorer

Instructions to install the required software are provided in the “SAP BusinessObjects B1 4.x Installation Job Aid”. Please note that valid license keys are required.

If you are using this workbook as part of a course, or corporate training, your instructor may provide you with instructions to access a hosted system or customized VMware image. In this case usernames and passwords may vary from the solutions in the guide.

Setting up your BI Deployment and iPad for Mobile Access

Activity 1 – Deploying a WAR file

In this activity, you will manually deploy the MobileBIService.war file, which is required to enable mobile

access for SAP BusinessObjects Mobile for iPad 4.0.3. In future releases manually deploying the war file

will not be required.

For information about supported web application servers see:

http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc/articles?rid=/webcontent/uuid/e01d4e05-6ea5-2c10-1bb6-

a8904ca76411

Instructions

1. Click Start > All Programs > Tomcat > Tomcat Configuration

2. Click Stop.

3. Copy the MobileBIService.war file in the installation folder.

[Install directory]\Mobile14\Client

Note: If you set up your system following instructions in the previous workbook you will find

the file here: C:\Program Files (x86)\SAP BusinessObjects\Mobile 14\Client

4. Paste the file into the [Tomcat home directory]\webapps folder:


http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc/articles?rid=/webcontent/uuid/e01d4e05-6ea5-2c10-1bb6-a8904ca76411

http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc/articles?rid=/webcontent/uuid/e01d4e05-6ea5-2c10-1bb6-a8904ca76411

the webapps folder here: C:\Program Files (x86)\SAP BusinessObjects\Tomcat6\webapps

5. Switch to the Apache Tomcat properties and click Start

6. To confirm that the War file is deployed correctly type this URL

http://localhost:8080/MobileBIService/MessageHandlerServlet?message=GetVersion

You may substitute localhost:8080 with the IP address or name of the server.

If you see this XML then the war file is configured correctly.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>

- <Result status="success">

<version productVersion="14.0.2.565" internalVersion="1.0" />

</Result>

Note: the productVersion indicates the version of the war file.
