Debugging Extractor for determining Time stamp values.

Hi,
Am in the process of debugging a FISL extractor that uses the Function module G_BIW_GET_TT_DATA to fetch records into BW.
Since the RSA3 extractor checker does not allow me to debug with Update mode Delta, I am not being able to ascertain exactly how this extractor determines the Timestamp for fetching records into BW...
If you could shed some light into this or could suggest a method through which I could debug a delta load it would be really helpful.
Thanks and Regards
VK!

Hi,
Debug the same in BW while loading it to some Info provider from R/3 at the stage of transformation using delta.
I hope it will help.
Thanks,
S

  • Input for shipment time stamp

    hi experts,
                 in one of my reports i need to take the field ' shipement time stamp' value, kindly tell me in table name and field name.
       i checked VTTK table, but i didn't find
    thanks in advance
    regards,
    pavan

    Hi Pavan kumar,
    Get it from VBFA (document flow) table.
    with Subsequent document category (VBTYP_N) = '8' and VBELN = shipment number ERDAT and ERZET will represent creation date and time of shipment.
    Note : For IS you have to use different VBTYP_N. example : for IS-OIL, use VBTYP_N = 'r' which represent TD-Bulk shipment.

  • FileMonitor issue for date time stamp change.

    Hi I have an app that runs with a minor issue and I am looking for some insight for a workaround or code change.
    I have a File Monitor that checks a specific directory every second.
    Users send a batch run to this directory throughout the day. There are two types of files, .ZIPs and .DONEs.
    So for each .ZIP a .DONE is sent to notify the app it can begin to process the file.
    Here is what I receive
    /elements/process/File1.ZIP     Oct 15 08:19
    /elements/process/File1.DONE     Oct 15 08:19
    The problem I am encountering is sometimes the .DONE and. ZIP are sent and the date time stamp of both files are the same so when the monitor reads the directory it looks like there is no change so both files sit in the directory and do not process. To make this work, I usually go in and touch a file to change the date time stamp.
    This is a java app that runs on an AIX box.
    Here is my code, is there anything any once can suggest to help me out. Thanks in advance.
       * Subclass of FileMonitor, Handles the timer event

            try
                Collection files = new ArrayList (hmFiles.keySet());

                    File file = (File) i.next();
                    long lastModifiedTime = ((Long) hmFiles.get (file)).longValue();
                    long newModifiedTime  = file.exists() ? file.lastModified() : -1;
                    //      Check if file has changed
                    if (newModifiedTime != lastModifiedTime)

         }

    Yes, I guess you are right, I don't care what time each file came, as long as I have both I can being to unzip and process and delete the .DONE.
    The code itself was based on if a filechanged then do work.... I could just take this out. Thanks!

  • Debug extractor in run time

    hello people!
    Is there a way to debug an extractor when charging in BW ambient?
    Not in RSA3...
    Thanks in advance,
    Denis

    Hi Denis,
    You can debug the start routine in the transfer rules. That way, you can see the data that extractor has supplied from R/3. I am not aware of any other way to debug extractor in BW. Hope this helps.

  • Triggered aquisition for determined time

    I am using a PCI-6371 to trigger a continuous AI aquisition on 8 channels of a NI-4472 at 15 ks/s, while displaying and writing the data to a file. I am currently using the get date/time in seconds function to determine when to exit the loop, but the time is not accurate enough. I need to aquire data for a pre-determined amount of time with a high degree of accuracy. Is there a way to set up a timed AI aquisition as opposed to continuous in a loop, while maintaining the display and file writing aspects?

    Dave,
    I don't have a particular example here, but looking at the shipping example you mentioned, here's a couple quick things to try:
    1. Increase your buffer size from the 2500 scan default. Give yourself a few seconds worth of buffer, say 4 seconds worth for a size of 60000.
    2. Increase the # of scans to read (& display & file) at a time. The minimum I'd bother trying is 500, which would correspond to updating your chart 30 times a second. You may find you need to increase it from there however.
    Operating on larger chunks of data less frequently lowers the fraction of overhead cost such as formatting to spreadsheet string, updating chart.
    3. Consider writing to a binary file so you don't have to convert all that data
    into a string format before writing to file.
    Hope these ideas are enough to get a trial version running for you.

  • Encore 2.0's starting PTS (presentation time stamp) ?

    Greetings:
    Could you please provide the starting PTS (presentation time stamp) in number of ticks based on a 27 MHZ clock?
    (I own a subtitle extractor that computes different time stamp values and was told that the PTS was different for Encore 2.0.)
    Thanks,
    William Johnston

    Ruud:
    A sample text line is shown below:
    00:01:43:16&00:01:46:08#G:\DVD\Subtitle Extractor output\Cowboy Bebop Remix\images\extractor output\EXT_03_1_1\temp_1.bmp
    I use OCR software to create text from the bitmap.
    The 27Mhz clock was from a technical contact. The company name is authoringware.com.
    As an aside, I purchased a program from authoringware that recomputes VOB files based on a new DTS value.
    Hopefully, I can create timestamps that are the same as Encore's TextScript timestamps.
    I am still researching the issue.

  • CF6004 Time Stamp log into file

    I am trying to attach the time stamp to the data log that I obtain from
    the NI CF6004. Is there an example that I can look at? I would like to
    print <Time stamp>  <value> in the file. I am sampling
    for multiple channels but one sample value at a time.
    In addition to this, I wanted to generate a plot displaying the value
    of multiple channels with respect to time values. Is it possible?
    Thanks in Advance,
    Karthik

    Hi Karthik,
    Since you are simply taking a single sample at a time and logging it to
    a file that should be relatively easy.  Essentially when you
    create a file you decide how to format the data.  In your case you
    may want to log everything as ASCII data.  If that's the case,
    then you will need to simply use the Get Date/Time String and
    Concatenate that string with a Number converted to a Fractional
    String.  You can see how to do this below:
    I also made sure to make this tab delimited so you could read it in a spreadsheet later.
    There are lots of ways to do what you are trying to do, but this is just the way that I chose.
    Have fun programming the rest of your application,

  • OIM 11g - DBUM Connector Reconciliation Time Stamp

    Hi,
    We're using OIM 11.1.1.5.2 with the 9.1.0.4 Database User Management Connector.
    We're trying to use incremental reconciliation but it doesn't seem to work right.
    As per the connector's guide:
    "The Last Execution Time attribute holds the time stamp at which the last reconciliation
    run started. This attribute is used in conjunction with the reconciliation query
    specified by the Query Name attribute. During a reconciliation run, only target system
    records added or modified after the time stamp value stored in the Last Execution
    Time attribute are fetched into Oracle Identity Manager for reconciliation."
    However everytime we run the reconciliation for a specific target, we only get reconciliation for users CREATED after the last reconciliation dates, users MODIFIED after last reconciliation dates are not being reconciled.
    The connector is not working as documented, when i review the log, i can see that it is using the following query for recon:
    SELECT USERNAME, DECODE(PASSWORD, 'EXTERNAL', 'EXTERNAL', 'GLOBAL', 'GLOBAL', 'PASSWORD') PASSWORD, EXTERNAL_NAME , DEFAULT_TABLESPACE, ACCOUNT_STATUS, TEMPORARY_TABLESPACE, PROFILE, (SELECT MAX_BYTES FROM DBA_TS_QUOTAS WHERE dba.USERNAME = USERNAME AND TABLESPACE_NAME = dba.DEFAULT_TABLESPACE) AS DEFAULT_TABLESPACE_QUOTA , (SELECT MAX_BYTES FROM DBA_TS_QUOTAS WHERE dba.USERNAME = USERNAME AND TABLESPACE_NAME = dba.TEMPORARY_TABLESPACE) AS TEMPORARY_TABLESPACE_QUOTA FROM DBA_USERS dba WHERE ((CREATED - TO_DATE('01011970','ddmmyyyy')) *24*60*60*1000) >1341440733000
    I don't think the "CREATED" field on the dba_users table is changed everytime the user is modified, and that field is the only one used on the where clause of the query, so, seems like there's something wrong with it.
    The only way to reconcile changes on users right now is running a full reconciliation.
    Has anyone ran into this problem before?
    Thanks.

    Thanks Nishith,
    I tested that approach and it worked. However, i had an interesting discussion on the DB forum and they convinced me not to use custom triggers on ddl, but instead use the audit capabilities of the database itself, so i came up with a new query using audit on alter user and grant and revoke role:
    Creating a system event DDL trigger for alter user statement
    What i used was a join between dba_users and dba_audit_trail, like i said in the other thread, it's not the efficient query ever, but it works, and i think it should work just fine as long as our dba's keep purging the audit tables regularly...
    SELECT dba.USERNAME, DECODE(dba.PASSWORD, 'EXTERNAL', 'EXTERNAL', 'GLOBAL', 'GLOBAL', 'PASSWORD') PASSWORD, dba.EXTERNAL_NAME , dba.DEFAULT_TABLESPACE,
    dba.ACCOUNT_STATUS, dba.TEMPORARY_TABLESPACE, dba.PROFILE,
    (SELECT MAX_BYTES FROM DBA_TS_QUOTAS WHERE dba.USERNAME = USERNAME AND TABLESPACE_NAME = dba.DEFAULT_TABLESPACE) AS DEFAULT_TABLESPACE_QUOTA ,
    (SELECT MAX_BYTES FROM DBA_TS_QUOTAS WHERE dba.USERNAME = USERNAME AND TABLESPACE_NAME = dba.TEMPORARY_TABLESPACE) AS TEMPORARY_TABLESPACE_QUOTA
    FROM DBA_USERS dba , DBA_AUDIT_TRAIL aud
    WHERE dba.username = aud.obj_name
    AND aud.action_name not like 'DROP%'
    AND ((aud.TIMESTAMP - TO_DATE('01011970','ddmmyyyy')) *24*60*60*1000) > :lastExecutionTime
    UNION
    SELECT dba.USERNAME, DECODE(dba.PASSWORD, 'EXTERNAL', 'EXTERNAL', 'GLOBAL', 'GLOBAL', 'PASSWORD') PASSWORD, dba.EXTERNAL_NAME , dba.DEFAULT_TABLESPACE,
    dba.ACCOUNT_STATUS, dba.TEMPORARY_TABLESPACE, dba.PROFILE,
    (SELECT MAX_BYTES FROM DBA_TS_QUOTAS WHERE dba.USERNAME = USERNAME AND TABLESPACE_NAME = dba.DEFAULT_TABLESPACE) AS DEFAULT_TABLESPACE_QUOTA ,

    WHERE dba.username = aud.grantee
    AND ((aud.TIMESTAMP - TO_DATE('01011970','ddmmyyyy')) *24*60*60*1000) > :lastExecutionTime;
    Thanks.

  • Time stamp woes

    Attached is a code I am building to generate and acquire waveform signals and then write them to a text file with appropriate time stamps. As it stands, I have only linked up the writing portion to the acquired signals (I plan to write generated signals next); however, my time stamps are not being written alongside my voltages, as I was expecting them to. I have had some trouble with this (probably because I am an absolute novice at this), but would appreciate some expert knowledge in this area. Can anyone help me out? The code and a text file from a dummy test are attached. Thanks!
    Solved!

    Thank you. I used the Index Waveform Array function and that seemed to do the trick. Since I've got this thread going already, I have a few more questions.
    My end goal is to write voltages in one column and corresponding time stamps in an adjacent column.  What I get when I run a dummy test (writing 1000 samples of an 8000 Hz, 1V square wave signal, sampling at 16000 Hz) is attached as a text file. I see three columns - one for the time stamp, check, one for the supposed input voltage, check, (though not sure why all the values are the same here?) and one more for I have no idea what. It's just a column full of zeroes.
    Any insight on what the third column might be and why my voltage readings are flat in the second column? I would hazard a guess and say it is a sampling rate issue, though I can't pinpont what it is.
    On another unrelated note, in an earlier version of this program, I was using shift registers, though I don't know if I need to be doing that now that I have a different code architecture.

  • To convert time stamp (data element ARFCTIME (char 8)) into date and time

    Hi All,
    ARFCSDATA table stores time stamp value like 41C9EC9D or 41D2DA75 (in char8 format)...how to convert it to date & time?
    Thanks in advance.
    Vithalprasad

    Hi All,
    Thanks a lot for your response.
    All these FMs are using timestamp which is having length of 14 or 16. .But in this case the field ARFCSDATA-ARFCTIME is having values in char 8 field and these values are in hexa decimal format.
    Please pass the information in this regard if you have.
    Thanks a lot.

  • How to convert hex string to time stamp?

    Hello everyone..
    I am currently working on a project in which I have to read the data from a unit and display that data using LabVIEW. I am using serial communication for reading the data. The read data is in hex format. 
    Now, I want to convert this hex string to a time stamp value. I am reading total 16 bytes. How to convert this hex data to a time stamp value. I have developed a VI. But I want to know that the displayed time stamp is correct or not? Or suggest me some other solution. 
    I am using LabVIEW 2011.

    I'm try to log data at a fast rate and I'm using the 1904 time stamp. I've noticed that the system clock only updates every 15 msec. I'm logging data every 5 msec. So when I plot the data I have three readings per time slice.

    I don't know what the true update time is it exactly it looks to be around 15msec to 16 msec. If I sync to nist I will get an accurate time stamp but I'm still stuck with the slow 15msec update rate of the system clock. The time stamp accuracy isn't that important but the elapsed time from start of the test is. You can see some times you get 3 readings at the same time stamp and some time 4. To get elapsed time what I did is put time stamp value into excel then subtract that value from all values taken after that point (= D4-$D4$). Since the number of reading at each time stamp varies I can use my simple excel formula. Thank you both for you replies.

  • Adjusting time stamp of AI waveform when using pause triggering

    Hi Everybody,
    I've written a VI that acquires data (AI) at specified time intervals
    by using pause triggering and a counter signal, but the resulting time
    stamps associated with the data points in the AI waveform are NOT the
    actual time relative to the start of the initial acquisition. I was
    thinking of modifying the time stamps (post-acquisition) for each set
    of data points per interval by adding the "off" time as set by the
    counter signal, thereby adjusting the time stamps of the data to real
    time. I then have a subVI that will convert the time stamps to elapsed
    time. I also have an AO waveform being generated at the same time, and
    was wondering if I could somehow use those time stamps values if they
    were synced to the AI somehow, although this seems more difficult. The
    adjustment does not need to be extremely accurate, and can vary on the
    order of seconds (e.g., the last data point could be at 9990 seconds
    for an acquisition that actually ended after 10000 seconds). Any
    suggestions?
    As an aside, the important point of this part of my program is to
    reduce the amount of data being collected. I need a high sampling rate
    to acquire waveforms with pulse widths on the order of milliseconds,
    but typically run the experiment overnight (+12 hrs.) so the files get
    really big (e.g., 3 GB!). I could try writing to binary files, but I
    haven't figured out how to read the file and then split the data into
    smaller files of user-defined size that can then be converted to
    text/.xls files. If you have any ideas on how I might do this as well,
    I'd greatly appreciate the help! Thanks!

    Unagi,
    I am not exactly sure what you are trying to do, but I can
    take a guess.  When performing analog input measurements the waveform is
    composed of t0, dt and Y.  You can manipulate any of these values after
    the data has been acquired.  If you set up the task the waveform should
    contain an absolute time, not relative.  If relative is required, as you
    suggested, this can be done post acquisition with the build waveform components
    vi. 
    I do not understand exactly what you want do with the
    timestamps for the analog output.  Do you
    want to use the relative time computed from the analog input data for the
    analog output waveform?  If so, you could
    build a waveform and use the t0, dt from the analog input processed/relative
    time waveform.  Again this would be done with the build waveform components
    vi.
    Finally, a binary file would reduce the amount of memory
    required when saving your data.  A binary file is fairly simple to save
    and open in LabVIEW.  There are a couple examples in NI Example Finder (i.e.
    Write Binary File and Read Binary File) that show you how to write and read
    binary files.  If you write the data to a binary file during acquisition,
    and modify/split it later you could open the binary file, retrieve the data in
    LabVIEW, and write a small subset to a text file.  Alternatively, you could
    perform some analysis of the data during acquisition and only save the set of
    data that you require post acquisition.
