Not sure if this helps but give a try
you can create connection from EAS to SAP .. using a plug-in .. if you have access to oracle Support go for [ID 968961.1]
or
below are steps
1. In EASPATH\console, open components.xml in a text editor.
2. Under <PluginList>, enter <Plugin archiveName="SAP" packageName="com.essbase.eas.sap.ui"/> before the closing </PlugIn> tag.
3. Save and close the file.
4. In EASPATH\console\bin, open admincon.lax in a text editor.
5. Search for lax.class.path= and append ;..\lib\sap_client.jar;..\lib \sap_common.jar to the entry. Save and close the file.
6. In EASPATH\server\bin, open adminsvr.lax in a text editor.
7. Search for lax.nl.java.option.additional, and append -DRFC_INI=EASPATH\server\saprfc.ini. Save and close the file.
8. Create a new environment variable, RFC_INI, with a value of EASPATH\server\saprfc.ini
9. Copy librfc.dll andsapjcorfc.dll to EASPATH\server\bin. You may need to obtain these files from SAP.
let me know if it works :)

How to extract data from SAP in FDM 11121

I came across some documents from version 11113, says there is a SAP adapter, however ,when I check 11121 there's no such adapter, does anyone know how to extract data from SAP in FDM 11121?

I download a package from Bristlecone, but I dont see any xml files in it, just a bunch of dll and I didn't find any instructions on how to set up/configure in FDM, it just explained how to register in SAP app server and client.
Hyperion 11113 has readme on sap adapter(Hyperion Readme Template), but I cannot find the same readme file in 11121, all I can find is ERP Integration Adapter document. any idears where I can find at least a readme document?

If you have already ABAP programs /BAPI's in place then try to develop RFC interface and write some back ground programs to scheudl BAPI's and develop scenario but you need to implement error handling , data validation in PI mapping level.
or
take help from ABAPer to design in ABAP like writing Proxy program to pull data and send it PI.
if you are dealing with master data bit risky(correctness) but can be achived using PI.

How to extract data from CLOB and insert them into DB?

Hi PL/SQL Gurus,
I have no experience in PL/SQL, but I have a requirement now where I have to use it.
We have a table with 10 columns, one of them is a CLOB and it holds XML data. The XMLs are very huge in size.
Two new columns are added to the table and the data has to be filled for the existing records from the corresponding XML. The XML has all the data as attributes. I started searching on the internet and tried if I could extract the data out of XML.
SELECT extractValue(value(x), '/Order/Package/@Code',
'xmlns:ns0="http://mycompany.com/Order/OrderType.xsd"' )
FROM ORDER_TABLE A
, TABLE(
XMLSequence(
extract(
xmltype(A.XML_DATA)
, '/ns0:Root'
, 'xmlns:ns0="http://mycompany.com/Order/OrderType.xsd"'
) x;
But this isn't working. Could anyone please provide some ideas.
I just want to confirm that I am able to extract data. Once this is done I would like to create a procedure so that all the existing records can be updated.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Fazzy

Extracting data from SAP and dumping it into Non SAP System

Hi All,
We have an MS based in house system. For our business process improvement, we need to import our customer's data and dump it into our application that has SQL server database - Our customers are running SAP. Wanted to find out what steps we need to follow from the design perspective... also I am assuming we wll need an access to our customer's system to code RFCs - is that correct ? Any information will be highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Neelima.

Hi,
it's really hard to answer your question without additional knowledge of your landscape. SAP support many ways of integrations. One way is using RFC. You would simply call function modules from your .NET application using RFC library. Another way is using web services. You can easily expose any RFC enabled function module as web service (if you are on NetWeaver). Another solution is using REST interface. Recently, there have been many articles dedicated to this approach here on SDN. This can be pretty nifty solution. Another way is file based integration (IDocs or simple flat files transfered via FTP).
Cheers

How to extract data from Buffer and create a RTP stream

Hi
I'm working on a project where I need to interrupt a media stream (video and audio) and extract the data. Send the data with a custom protocol. On the recieveing side I would like to reconstruct the stream using only the data chunks.
I'm currently looking at [DataSourceReader.java|http://java.sun.com/javase/technologies/desktop/media/jmf/2.1.1/solutions/DataSourceReader.java] and more specifically at a method like printDataInfo(Buffer buffer) to extract the data.
Is it possible to create a RTP stream, only having access to the byte array "data" in Buffer ?
Thanks in advance.

There are a couple of different ways to get the data. Reading it from inside a DataSink is perfectly fine...

You need to know the format of the media in addition to the actual media data...

How to extract data from ODS to non-SAP system

Hi,
Can anybody tell me, step by step, how to extract data from ODS to a non-SAP system?
Is it possible to do it without programming effort? And is there volume limits for this kind of extraction?
The non-SAP system is an unix system.
Thanks in advance
Ella

Ella,
You can look at it from the concept of a BADI / Infospoke
Extract the data from the ODS to a Flat file / RDBMS using an infospoke. I am not sure as to how the infospoke loads data into the RDBMS ( did it very long ago ) but then you can push it into an RDBMS and I am sure it will be system neutral.
Hope this helps...

How to extract data from custom made Idoc that is not sent

Hi experts,
Could you please advise if there is a way how to extract data from custom made idoc (it collects a lot of data from different SAP tables)? Please note that this idoc is not sent as target system is not fully maintained.
As by now, we would like to verify - what data is extracted now.
Any help, would be appreciated!

Hi,
The fields that are given for each segment have their length given in EDSAPPL table. How you have to map is explained in below example.
Suppose for segment1, EDSAPPL has 3 fields so below are entries
SEGMENT          FIELDNAME           LENGTH
SEGMENT1         FIELD1                   4
SEGMENT1         FIELD2                   2
SEGMENT1         FIELD3                   2
Data in EDID4 would be as follows
IDOC           SEGMENT                          APPLICATION DATA
12345         SEGMENT1                        XYZ R Y
When you are extracting data from these tables into your internal table, mapping has to be as follows:
FIELD1 = APPLICATIONDATA+0(4)        to read first 4 characters of this field, because the first 4 characters in this field would belong to FIELD1
Similarly,
FIELD2 = APPLICATIONDATA+4(2).
FIELD3 = APPLICATIONDATA+6(2).
FIELD1 would have XYZ, FIELD2 = R, FIELD3 = Y
This would remain true in all cases. So all you need to do is identify which fields you want to extract, and simply code as above to extract the data from this table.
Hope this was helpful in explaining how to derive the data.

Extracting Data from SAP ERP using BODI/Data Services 4.0

HI,
I am trying to extract data from SAP ERP via SAP extractors using BODI/Data Services 4.0.
I do not have my own ERP system so I am renting remote access from one of the many available on the internet.
I am able to connect BODI to the ERP system and import the extractors metadata.
The problem I am experiencing is that when I run job to extract the data I get the following error:
Vendor-supplied function module <Z_AW_RFC_READ_EXTRACTOR> not found. Ensure that you can execute the function module in SAP via transaction /nSE37.
How do I create the function? Or is the function a SAP standard function?
SAP ERP system being used is: ECC6 EHP4
User has SAP FULL and DEVELOPER authorizations.
Any assistance would be appreciated.

You might have better luck in the (somewhat misnamed) [Data Integration and Data Quality Management|Data Services and Data Quality; forum:
