Displaying the BO-Universe data though an Xcelsius file (SWF)

This document is intended to represent the process of displaying the BO-Universe data though anXcelsius file (SWF). The Universe might be created by having the BW data targets (DSO,Infosets, Infocube, BW-Queries, etc) or any other databases like MS Access, Oracle, DB2,etc asthe source. Based on the universe modeling the query will be designed based on the users need(like what should be the input and output fields). In the following example, consider SAPtest asthe universe derived from BW Query.

As the first step the query has to be created using the Universe and then the, created query hasto be published as Web Service.

Open the Business Object through Programs and Select Query as a Web Service (QaaWS). Thecredentials for the Business Objects have to be entered and start to operate with the Universe.

Setting up Host for QaaWS

Once the Host and Credentials for BO are entered, then the QaaWS wizard will be opened withthe available Queries. Now Click on New and Start to create a query.

Now by clicking on the Publish button, the developed query will be deployed to consume thequery as Web Service

Now the Query has been successfully published and consumed as web service based on theUniverse derived from BW Targets. Now the Xcelsius file has to be designed and configured.

Open BO-Xcelsius 2008 and place a Query as a Web Service connection by opening the DataManager. Copy the URL from the above developed system and place the same in the WSDLURL of the data connection and click on Import. Method, Web Service URL, Input Values andOutput values are updated with series of data based on the web Service derived.

Now the cells have to map and canvas of the Xcelsius has to be designed based on the data

returned through Query as a Web Service.

A List View component will be placed on the canvas and data will be mapped based on theOutput Value of the QaaWS. Save the Xcelsius file and Export the XLF file as Show Wave File

(SWF). Execute the SWF file, the Query as a Web Service will be activated and the data will startto flow based on the Web Service defined.
