Getting data to PSA (staging area) using an external system

Hi there,
I am a BI Newbi and trying to understand technique of getting data to PSA (staging area) through an external system. I would prefer a high level of integration  not via DB-Connect, Flat-File, ...
Can I use bapis to get data to PSA?
How and where do I trigger those BAPIS?
Can I PUSH data from external application into PSA?
Do I need the scheduler?
I read several docus about third party tools e.g. BEA Adapter but do have some general problems understanding the overall process.
Can anyone clearify?
Regards,
Sebastian Heinz

You can use Time Machine to back up your files and then use the Migration assistant to bring back your files from the Time Machine backup. Other applications such as Carbon Copy Cloner may also do the job for you.

    e.deptid = d.deptId;
    in this class i have two objects, one Emp obj and another Dept object.
    I wanna get the details abt this class Emp and Dept by simply parsing the file and by not loading this class in JVM.
    Could any pls hel me out.??

    I wanna get the details abt this class Emp and Dept
    by simply parsing the file and by not loading this
    class in JVM.Your problem statement is vague and the constraint is IMO hypothetical.

  • Not Getting Data to PSA

    Hi Experts,
    i am facing the below critical issue.
    i have enhanced 2 fields, item start date and end date to crm data source 0CRM_SRV_PROCESS _I Data Source.
    while checking data from RSA3  i have got data for those 2 fields(item start date and end date) in CRM System, but while running Infopackage i am not getting data of those 2 fields to BI PSA table.

    Print from what? If you aren't licensing ID for the sales staff that sounds like they print from PDF. I don't know anything about Easy Catalog, but I don't think there's any way to edit the PDF using it.
    I think you should ask the folks at Easy Catalog about this, and maybe post the question over in ID scripting. It may be possible to write a script that will automatically update the PDF when the ID file is closed or saved, which I suspect is about as close as you are going to come to what you want.

    Is there any way to extract data from Order series Planning area?

  • I have a new mac and my old mac had my photos on it how can I get my photos onto iPhoto without using a external drive or flash drive?

    My dad put a new mac in and the old Mac had my photos on it, and I checked iPhoto after it the new computer was plugged in and there was no photos in it, and my dad said that they should be in there but they aren't, so is there a way to get my photos onto the new Mac without the old one and without an external or flash drive? Because a lot of my photos I don't have on my camera because the memory card was full and the pictures that I had already had been on the old mac....
    Thanks!

    Have your dad post de what happened - you need to be at least 13 o se these forums and we need to be able to understand what you are asking
    the basic answer to moving photos is Connect the two Macs together (network, firewire target mode, etc)  or use an external hard drive formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity from the old Mac to the pictures folder of the new Mac - launch iPhoto on the new mac and it will open the library and convert it as needed and you will be ready move forward.  but you say you do not have the old computer
    Unless  you have a backup or there is more information the answer is there s no way now

  • How to get data in ABAP program from multicube in external BW system

    Hi friends,
         I want to get data from one multicube which resides in an external BW system, in my ABAP program internal table. Is there any SAP standard RFC / BAPI for this or is there any other way around or I have to design my own program to get the data ?
        To make my requirement clearer, my ABAP program is in one BW box and the above mentioned multicube in another BW box. I want to get data from the multicube into my program.
        Any help is appreciated with points.

    Look at the following FM; you may find the FM RSDRI_INFOPROV_READ_RFC useful.
    Call the FM in your program and read data and update.

  • We are using db2, but system is trying to load Oracle gateway?

    Hi,
    We are using OBI 10.1.3.3.0
    Our installed database is DB2 8.2
    The init blocks that are firing every hour are based on Oracle SQL syntax although we are using db2! This is causing a multitude of errors in the nqquery.log and nqserver log.
    The error in nqserver.log is
    [nQSError:46029]Failed to load the DLL C:\OracleBI\server\Bin\nqsdbgatewayoci8i.dll.Check if 'Oracle OCI 8.x' database client is installed.
    Is there a way to configure the variable manager so it should load the db2 gateway and not the oracle one?
    A third party performed our installation. Was this a installation overlook? Is there a way to fix it or would we need to reinstall
    (as an aside, we are having a similar problem with Informatica - the tables are defined as Oracle tables...)
    Thanks,
    David

    Did you set the some connection pool the init block uses to use "OCI8"? As you can see in the NQSConfig.ini, the .dll is only called for OCI8 interfaces:
    [ DB_DYNAMIC_LIBRARY ]
    OCI8 = nqsdbgatewayoci8;
    Add-on: I overread the "was done by someone else" part of you post. So I expect this thread to grow a bit still...
