Auot-copying Data between Spreadsheets

How do you create a summary spreadsheet based on data in other spreadsheets in other folders and automatically updated when opened? In other words, copy data from one spreadsheet to another by simply identifying the source field .... I was able to do it in Office back when I was a Windows user.

psu63,
That's no guarantee that you can do it in iWork. External links are weak in iWork, but getting a bit stronger with each upgrade. We're looking for an upgrade in the next few months, just a guess, and maybe table cell links between documents will be added. You can register your wishes from the Numbers Menu - select Provide Numbers Feedback.
For now, consolidate your data into one document if you want to link the tables.
Welcome to the discussions,
Jerry

  • Different ways to copy data between two schemas in one instance

    Hi there,
    I am searching a good way to copy data between two schemas in the same instance.
    Both schemas have an identical structure such as triggers, tables, views and so on. The only difference is the purpose: one is the productivity system and one is for development.
    I looked at datapump but I do not explicit want to export / import. I want to keep the data in the productivity schema as well as copy it to the other schema. Any ideas? I found out there is a copy statement but I dont't know how that works.
    Thank you so far,
    Jörn

    Thank you for your replies!
    I also thought of creating a second instance for development and move the dev - schema to it. I just don't know whether our server can handle both (performance?). Anyway the idea is to have a possibility to quickly rebuild the data inside a schema without indixes or triggers, just pure data. I thought the easiest way would be to copy the data between the schemas as they are exactly the same. However if you tell me DataPunp is the best solution i won't deny using it :).
    When you export data a file is created. does that also mean that the exported data is deleted inside the schema?
    best regards

  • Copy data between Apps filtered by  workstatus

    Hello all gurus,
    BPC 7.5 NW
    I am copying data between apps. I want to do it with abap code because I use BADI.
    I dont want to copy all data, only data that have been filtered by WorkStatus. I cant use DESTINATION_APP in Script Logic because I need to filter
    Structure app is the same. Origin app is APP_A and destination app is APP_B.
    I only copy data if Workstatus is 'Approved'
    App: APP_A                 App: APP_B
    Dim1 WS
    Dim2 WS
    DIm3 WS
    Dim4
    Dim5
    If workstatus(DIM1, DIM2, DIM3) = "Approved" then
            Copy Dim1,..,5 belongs to APP_A to APP_B
    else
                    Nothing
    end if
    Example:    2014,Actual,Account1,E1toN,Act1toN   copy to  2014,Actual,Account1,E1toN,Act1toN (same rows, same structure)
    Note: Act1toN= act1, act2, act3,...actN
    Then, my filter is
    SETAPP = WB
    APP_A = BHN
    Worstatus table--> /1CPMB/LKWSWBBHN
    Select statuscode from /1CPMB/LKWSWBBHN where DIM1=2104, DIM2=Actual,Dim3=Accoun1
    if statuscode='5' then  // 5 is Approved (statid) in UJW_STATCODE
         copy data  2014,Actual,Account1,E1toN,Act1toN belong APP_A  copy to  2014,Actual,Account1,E1toN,Act1toN belong APP_B(same rows, same estructure)
    end if
    if you need more information dont hesitate to ask
    thanks

  • Copy data between cubes

    I need to copy data between two cubes (through a business rule). Can I do it using Partition/Replication? If so, does anyone have an example on how it is done? I'm currently using @XREF, but that does not transfer data for blocks that don't already exist in target database.
    I'm very new to this so a detailed description will help.
    Thanks for your help.

    Yes, partitions are great. I like to use replicated partitions because I can control the data, and deal with integrity issues etc. Your usage may vary.
    Basically, you go to your "Source" database, go to the partitions menu, and "Create New Partition". You then walk through each of the tabs in the partition menu
    Type Tab: Choose the type. Let's say a "replicated" partition.
    Connection Tab: Choose what databases will be connected with the partition
    Areas Tab: I like to check the "Use Text Editor" to just type out the formulas. Also check the "Show Cell Count" to have some confidence your formulas are working as planned. Here you define what data moves from source to target. For example I might setup the following
    Source:
    ("Actuals Data"),
    @LEVMBRS("Province",0),
    @GENMBRS("Company",2)
    Target:
    ("Actuals Data"),
    @LEVMBRS("Province",0),
    @GENMBRS("Company",2)
    If the names don't match, you can adjust that in the advanced properties or mapping properties. (If you have multiple slices of data - use the advanced mapping).
    Now validate and save

  • Copying data between Applications

    Hello all,
    Is there a recommended approach to copying data between applications within the same application set? I have a cube that's the mirror image of another cube, excluding the difference in dimension names. I want to pass data from one cube to another cube. I am hoping this is something that can be done through DM using one of the standard packages provided by SAP.
    Thanks,
    Rob

    Hi Rob,
    Apart from using Data Manager option to copy data between applications, please also explore "Destination_App" statement in your script logic as you mentioned both the applications are mirror images of each other. Please check for sap help or SP02 doc addendum for more insight into destination app logic. There is also BADI option to take aggregated data from one application to another. There is a how-to-guide available for this.
    Please check which one of these options suit better for your requirement.
    Cheers,

  • Copying data between models

    Hi Gurus,
    I need help in copying data between models. Below is the scenario.
    Model A (Source model)
    It contains plan data:
    Important dimensions: Facility, Product, Time
    Model B (Target model)
    Important dimensions: Facility, Product, Time; Additional dimensions: Cost Center, Cost Element
    Model C (For lookup while copying data)
    Important Dimensions: Facility, Product, Time, Cost Center, Cost Element
    Task:
    Copy data from A to B and populate cost center and cost element in B by lookup C (key for lookup is Facility, Product, Time)
    Please let me know the required steps to do the job.
    Can we do it using logic script and avoid BADI?
    Which data package should I use?
    Thanks.

    Hi Vadim,
    It seems like I can move the data from A to B while data gets saved in A using input screen.
    So far I have written below which is working fine. For now I am hard coding the cost center, now I need to know how to lookup to the other model. Please review and let me know. Thanks.
    *XDIM_MEMBERSET P_ACCOUNT = VOLUME, REVENUE
    *XDIM_MEMBERSET P_CATEGORY = Forecast
    *DESTINATION_APP = PLANNING_RETRACTION
    *ADD_DIM COST_CENTER = 3000011
    *WHEN P_ACCOUNT
    *IS "VOLUME", "REVENUE"
    *REC(EXPRESSION = %VALUE%)
    *ENDWHEN

  • How to transfer data between spreadsheets without using Business Objects?

    Hello, every time I try and log onto the business objects platform I keep getting "this system can be contacted but there is no central management server running at port 6400".  All I need to do is pass variables between spreadsheets. Both files are located in the same folder. Below are the links ive tried but have been unsuccessful  to pass data.
    (This link I used the swf loader component child and flash variables task Daya posted on Feb 15. However nothing loaded. The link wasnt a link i could display is in a browser. So i kept getting 0% when in preview mode.
    Passing values from dashboard to dashboard with Flash Variables
    Next I tried the following link. I did everything word for word and was able to display both files on the html page, but no link or connection between them existed. I would select a state and noting happened to the other swf files chart. Does this need to be in the Business Objects platform?
    Dashboards 4.0: Connect to an external
    Lastly , I used the link below. I followed everything and was able to get interaction from the parent to child however with only the files that were available on this thread. Their URL was this http://myxcelsius.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/child.swf?salesman=Schrute,Dwight. I get the concatenation but I dont get how this URL was generated? How do I develop my URL? My URL is able to display in a browser. My URL is
    http://kln-ftvp/KLNPheonix//LinkToReport.htm?fqn=MyEnterprise.Public.graphtest&run=true
    SWF Loader shows 100% instead of Dashboard.
    Even with my URL being able to display in internet explorer, I still only show 100% and a blank screen. Can anyone help me with any of the issues I am having trouble with? Your help is most appreciated. Thank you.

    It looks like you have more than one problems so it might be good to separate them out.
    Issue 1 - Logging on to BusinessObjects
    You say that when you try log on to the BO Platform you get the error message there is no central management server running on port 6400. I'm assuming you are trying to do this from the Dashboard designer.
    Does it work when you try to log on from the web browser?
    Make sure that you enter the correct system name in the system field when trying to log on from Designer. If you are unsure, either check what system name is used when you log on from your browser or check with your BO administrator.
    Issue 2 - Passing values to a child dashboard
    If you try to preview the dashboard in the designer, remember that the swf loader doesn't work in preview mode, so whatever you are trying to display won't be visible.
    First of all you need to have 2 separate flash files that works independently of each other. The one that you are planning to use as a child flash, make sure that you create the flash variables so you can pass variables to it and use them to filter your data if that is your requirement. But hold off on that for now.
    When you have 2 working flash files, save them both to the BI Launch Pad (or InfoView if you are on 3.1) and make sure they both work there. Then get the opendocument url for the child dashboard and try to open it in your browser directly using this url. If that works, use the same url in the swf viewer in the parent dashboard, save the parent dashboard back to BI Launch Pad and open it. It should now work.
    Let me know if you have any problems with these steps.
    Cheers,
    Josh

  • Copying data between databases

    Hi Gurus,
    Is there any way to copy data from one DB to another DB, other than COPY command ?
    My reqt is this. I want to copy data from one DB to another one periodically (weekly basis). I'm trying to create a USER JOB for this and call a PL/SQL proc in the JOB. As COPY is a SQL/PLUS command, I think I can't use it in a DB procedure. Any help is appreciated. Thanks a lot.

    Hi,
    Thanks for the reply. It works now.
    It was my fault while creating the database link. The SQL*NET version was NET8 and I created the DB link with 'USING t:XXX:XXXX'. So the link was using SQL*NET old version and I was getting ora-6401 (Invalid Driver Designation). Now I recreated the link private DB link) and it works fine.
    Thanks for your help.

  • Copy data between productive and test system

    Hi everybody,
    I need to copy data from one cube in productive system into the same cube in the test system.
    How can I do it?
    Regards
    Erwin

    If you need to copy data from one system to another maybe you can do a Data Refresh or a SAP_DATA System Copy.
      If you wan't only to copy data from 1 Cube to another in other system you shoul'd try transforming the data on the Cube to a Report or maybe an ODS and then dowload it to a CVS archive, and then make a Transformation From PC_FILE to ODS and Cube o from PC_FILE to Cube.
    Hope it's work.

  • How to copy data between two tables row by row

    Hi All,
    I have three tables TableA and TableB and TableC
    I wanted to write a stored procedure to copy data row by row from TableA to TableB and then update TableC by replacing any record that has the old id (before copying) to the new id after copying the data.
    here is the steps 
    iterate throw all the rows in tableA ( probably with a foreach)
    in each iteration we will do the following:
    Get current ID (identity) for each record in TableA ( will call it @oldID)
    Insert the row in TableB
    Get the new ID for the row from TableB will call it (@NewID)
    find rows in tableC that has the (@oldID)
    replace all ids in tableC with @oldID to @NewID
    Thanks in advance

    0
    TableA and TableB are identical they should have the same columns 
    TableC columns will be ( ID, TableA_ID , Notes)

  • Problem copying data between tables

    Hello Members,
    Its my first day using SQL queries on oracle 10g database.I used the following query to copy selected feilds of a table :
    CREATE TABLE SAMPLE_TEMP as (SELECT CUSTOMER, BALANCE FROM CUSTOMER_ALL)
    The CUSTOMER_ALL table has over 2 million records. I was successful in creating a table and copying data, but the new table could populate only 52978 records.
    ---- Sample data in my table
    CUSTOMER     BALANCE
    6.28899273     0
    6.28899274     0
    6.28899275     0
    6.28899289     625.12
    6.28899292     2666.24
    How do I go about fixing this ? Do i need to declare a structure and assign the number of records i will store to it ? Any guidance will help me get started.
    Regards
    newbie

    Hello,
    If the CUSTOMER_ALL table is a live table, there may have been new records INSERTed since you copied the data, therefore you will have different counts.
    To check on the data difference:
    SELECT CUSTOMER, BALANCE FROM CUSTOMER_ALL
    MINUS
    SELECT CUSTOMER, BALANCE FROM SAMPLE_ALL
