BPC clear cache in case BPC Web Client issues

BPC Web Client is a software module used by both BPC Standard and BPC Embedded. It may happen that after an upgrade of the BPC Web Client that was done standalone (not as part of BW/BPC component) the BPC client is not being displayed in web browser.

In this case a cache of the BPC application server needs to be reset. There are following two URLs that are supposed to be executed in a web browser:

 

http(s)://<server>:<port>/sap/epm/bpc/web/clearcache

http(s)://<server>:<port>/sap/epm/bpc/web/resetcachebuster

 

From BPC NW 10.0 a SICF service /default_host/sap/EPM_BPC/web is referring to link /sap/bpc/web. Thus, the URLs like below are supposed to be functioning:

http(s)://<hostname>:<port>/sap/EPM_BPC/web

http(s)://<hostname>:<port>/sap/bpc/web

 

From BPC NW 10.1 where the UI is moved to UI5 the sICF service was changed to /default_host/sap/bc/ui5_ui5/sap/bpcwebclient and is referring to link /sap/epm/bpc/web. Thus the two URLs look like:

http(s)://<server>:<port>/sap/bc/ui5_ui5/sap/bpc4webclient/resetcachebuster
