Best practice for Extracting sales contracts from R/3

Hi Everyone,
We have a requirement to bring sales contract data from R/3 and most of the fields from table VEDA. 2lis_11_vaitm don't carry VEDA fields.
What are the best practices on brining VEDA fields into BW?
Thanks,
D. Eranezhath

What are best practices for managing my iphone from both work and home computers?

What are best practices for managing my iphone from both work and home computers?

Sync iPod/iPad/iPhone with two computers
Although it isn't possible to sync an Apple device with two different libraries it is possible to sync with the same logical library from multiple computers. Each library has an internal ID and when iTunes connects to your iPod/iPad/iPhone it compares the local ID with the one the device normally syncs with. If they are the same you can go ahead and sync...
I have my library cloned to a small 1Tb USB drive which I can take between home & work. At either location I use SyncToy 2.1 to update the local copy with the external drive. Mac users should be able to find similar tools. I can open either of the local libraries or the one on the external drive and update the media content of my iPhone. The slight exception is Photos which normally connects to a specific folder on a specific machine, although that can easily be remapped to the current library if you create a "Photos" folder inside the iTunes Media folder so that syncing the iTunes folders keeps this up to date as well. I periodically sweep my library for new files & orphans withiTunes Folder Watch just in case I make changes at one location but then overwrite the library with a newer copy from the other. Again Mac users should be able to find similar tools.
As long as your media is organised within an iTunes Music or Tunes Media folder, in turn held inside the main iTunes folder that has your library files (whether or not you let iTunes keep the media folder organised) each library can access items at the same relative path from the library folder so the library can be at different drives/paths on different machines. This solution ensures I always have adequate backups of my library and I can update my devices whenever I can connect to the same build of iTunes.
When working with an iPhone earlier builds of iTunes would remove any file not physically present in the local library, even if there was an entry for it, making manual management practically redundant on the iPhone. This behaviour has been changed but it will still only permit manual management with a library that has the correct internal ID. If you don't want to sync your library between machines on a regular basis just copy the iTunes Library.itl file from the current "home" machine to any other you want to use, then clean out the library entires and import the local content you have on that box.

Best Practice for Extracting a Single Value from Oracle Table

I'm using Oracle Database 11g Release 11.2.0.3.0.
I'd like to know the best practice for doing something like this in a PL/SQL block:
DECLARE
    v_student_id    student.student_id%TYPE;
BEGIN
    SELECT student_id
    INTO    v_student_id
    FROM    student
    WHERE   last_name = 'Smith'
    AND     ROWNUM = 1;
END;
Of course, the problem here is that when there is no hit, the NO_DATA_FOUND exception is raised, which halts execution. So what if I want to continue in spite of the exception?
Yes, I could create a nested block with EXCEPTION section, etc., but that seems clunky for what seems to be a very simple task.
I've also seen this handled like this:
DECLARE
    v_student_id    student.student_id%TYPE;
    CURSOR c_student_id IS
        SELECT student_id
        FROM    student
        WHERE   last_name = 'Smith'
        AND     ROWNUM = 1;
BEGIN
    OPEN c_student_id;
    FETCH c_student_id INTO v_student_id;
    IF c_student_id%NOTFOUND THEN
        DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('not found');
    ELSE
        (do stuff)
    END IF;
    CLOSE c_student_id;
END;
But this still seems like killing an ant with a sledge hammer.
What's the best way?
Thanks for any help you can give.
Wayne

Do not design in order to avoid exceptions. Do not code in order to avoid exceptions.
Exceptions are good. Damn good. As it allows you to catch an unexpected process branch, where execution did not go as planned and coded.
Trying to avoid exceptions is just plain bloody stupid.
As for you specific problem. When the SQL fails to find a row and a value to return, what then? This is unexpected - if you did not want a value, you would not have coded the SQL to find a value. So the SQL not finding a value is an exception to what you intend with your code. And you need to decide what to do with that exception.
How to implement it. The #1 rule in software engineering - modularisation.
E.g.
create or replace function FindSomething( name varchar2 ) return foo.col1%type is
id foo.col1%type;
begin
select col1 into id from foo where col2 = upper(name);
return( id );
exception when NOT_FOUND then
return( null );
end;
And that is your problem. Modularisation. You are not considering it.
And not the only problem mind you. Seems like your keyboard has a stuck capslock key. Writing code in all uppercase is just as bloody silly as trying to avoid exceptions.

Best practice for retraction of data from BPC 10.0 to General Ledger

Hi All,
I have the requirement to retract data from BPC 10.0 to General Ledger.
What is the best practice for doing this?
I have read the "How To... Retract data from BPC 7.5 NetWeaver to SAP ERP Cost Center Accounting, Part I", but this is prepared to transfer data to Cost Center accounting. Will General Ledger be populated automatically?
What is your opinion on this?

Best Practice for Migration of BO from one server to another

Hi All,
I would like to know what is the Best pratice for Migration of BO from One server to another.
i have Installed BO Xi R2 on my server.
Thanks,
Anendu Bothra
Edited by: Anendu Bothra on Mar 5, 2009 10:24 AM

You need to copy your input and output file stores from the old server to the new server. By default these are located in the <Business Objects install path>\FileStore directory.
Then you need to stop the CMS, Right click the CMS,Click the Configuration tab, and then click Specify.
Choose Copy, then click OK.
Choose the version information for the source CMS database.
Select the database type for the source CMS database, and then specify
its database information (including host name, user name, and password).
Select the database type for the destination CMS database, and then
specify its database information (including host name, user name, and
password).
When the CMS database has finished copying, click OK.
Once this process has been completed start the CMS and click on update objects -> located on the top of the CCM.
I'd advise taking full backups beforehand.

Best practice for Smartview when upgrading from Excel 2003 to Excel 2007?

Does anyone know the best pratice for Smartview when upgrading from Excel 2003 to Excel 2007?
Current users have Microsoft Excel 2003 with Smartview 9.3.1.2.1.003.
Computers are being upgraded to Microsoft Excel 2007.
What is the best pratice for Smartview in this situation?
1. Do nothing with Smartview and just install Excel 2007.
2. Install Excel 2007 and then uninstall and reinstall Smartview
3. Uninstall Smartview, Install Excel 2007, and then install Smartview
4. Somthing else??
Thanks!

We went with option 1 and it worked out fine. Be aware that SV processes noticeably slower in Excel 2007 than 2003. Many users were/are unhappy with the switch. We haven't tested SV v11 yet, so I'm not sure if it has improved performance with Excel 2007 or not (hopefully it does).

Best practice for extracting data to feed external DW

We are having a healthy debate with our EDW team about extracting data from SAP. They want to go directly against ECC tables using Informatica and my SAP team is saying this is not a best practice and could potentially be a performance drain. We are recommending going against BW at the ODS level. Does anyone have any recommendations or thoughts on this?

Hi,
As you asked for Best Practice, here it is in SAP landscape.
1. Full Load or Delta Load data from SAP ECC to SAP BI (BW): SAP BI understand the data element structure of SAP ECC, and delta mechanism is the continous process of data load from a SAP ECC (transaction system) to BI (Analytic System).
2. You can store transaction data in DSOs (granular level), and in InfoCubes (at a summrized level) within SAP BI. You can have master data from SAP ECC coming into SAP BI separately.
3. Within SAP BI, you SHOULD use OpenHub service to provide SAP BI data to other external system. You must not connect external extractor to fetch data from DSO and InfoCube to target system. OpenHub service is the tool that faciliate data feeding to external system. You can have Informatica to take data from OpenHubs of SAP BI.
Hope I explain to best of your satisfaction.
Thanks,
S

Best Practice for creating Excel report from SSIS.

I have a requirement to create an Excel report on a daily basis which pulls data from SQL. I have attempted to resolve this by creating a stored procedure to save the results in SQL, a template in Excel to hold the graphs & pivot tables and an SSIS package
to copy the data to the template.
Problem 1: When the data turns up in Excel it is saved as text rather than numbers.
Problem 2: When the data turns up in Excel it appends the data rather than overwriting it.
I resolved problem 1 by having another sheet which converts the text to numbers (=int(sheet1!A1))
I resolved problem 2 by adding some VB script to my SSIS package which clears the existing cells before copying the data
The job runs fine, however when I schedule the job to run overnight it complains "System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Retrieving the COM class factory for component with CLSID". A little googling tells me that running the client side commands in
my vb script (workSheet1.Range("A2:F9999").Clear(), workBook.Save(), workBook.Close() etc) from a server side task is bad practice.
So, I am left wondering how people usually get around this problem; copy a SQL table into an existing Excel file and overwrite the data, without having the numbers turn up as text. My requirements are that the report must display pivot charts with selectable
options and be automatically updated overnight.
Help appreciated,
Bish.
Office 2013 on my PC, Office 2010 on the server, Windows Server 2008R2 Enterprise, SQL Server 2008R2.

I think that the best practice in case like this is to Link an excel file to a view or directly to a table. So you don't have to struggle with changing template, with overnight packages, etc. If the data are too much complex and the desiderate too excessive
then I tend to create a Cube and that's it...dashboard, graph and everyone is happy. In your case if the request is not too much try to don't use SSIS but directly build a view and point directly on SQL.
SSIS is really strong for the ETL, to run some stored procedure too heavy, to use a cut time scheduled, etcetera , etcetera, etcetera...I love it. But sometimes we need to find the easier solutions...
I hope this post helped you

Best Practices for creating reports/Dashboards from BW systems

HI Gurus,
Best Practices of creating BO Dashboards / Xcelsisus from BW systems
Prasad

You can use the BICS connector that leverages BW queries directly. It is listed in the Connection Manager as "SAP NetWeaver BW Connection". You will need both the ABAP and Java stack and SSO configured between the two. You will also need to have SAP GUI and BEx installed on the machine you are doing development on. Note that dashboards using this connection can only be hosted in NW Portal for the time being until the next release of BI 4.x platform.
Here are some links on getting started with the BICS connector:

We are using ODI 11.1.1.6 version.
In my ODI project, we have separate installations for Dev, Test and Prod. i.e. Master repositories are not common between all the three. Now my code is ready in dev. Test environment is just installed with ODI and Master and Work repositories are created. Thats it
Now, I need to know and understand what is the simple & best way to import the code from Dev and migrate it to test environment. Can some one brief the same as a step by step procedure in 5-6 lines? If this is the 1st time you are moving to QA, better export/import complete work repositories. If it is not the 1st time then create scenario of specific packages and export/import them to QA. In case of scenario you need not to bother about model/datastores. keep in mind that the logical schema name should be same in QA as used in your DEV.
Some questions on current state.
1. Do the id's of master and work repositories in Dev and Test need to be the same?It should be different.
2. I usually see in export file a repository id with 999 and fail to understand what it is exactly. None of my master or work repositories are named with that id.It is required to ensure object uniqueness across several work repositories. For more understanding you can refer
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E14571_01/integrate.1111/e12643/export_import.htm
http://odiexperts.com/odi-internal-id/
3. Logical Architecture objects and context do not have an export option. What is the suitable alternative for this?If you are exporting topology then you will get the logical connection and context details. If you are not exporting topology then you need to manually create context and other physical connection/logical connection.

"Best practice" for accessing a class from a custom component?

My app utilizes a simple class to hold global properties such as username, session data, and similar data. The class is initialized at app startup via code similar to: appGlobals:myGlobals=new myGlobals.
Many of the custom MXML components and AS classes need to access that data. I have been able to work with it using Application.application.appGlobals.propertyname.
Is this method the best way to communicate from components and classes to a class initiated at the application level, or should I learn something new before I build a lot of code on this method?
Thanks.
Paul

The WizardModel class is interesting, it is a "singleton" where it is designed to only have one instance, and the class actually has a static variable of its own class. Because that variable is static, an instance is created the first time the class is accessed.
As to where the WizardModel is "first accessed" and thus its own variable of type WizardModel instantiated, is hard to say, as you really need to understand the application and component startup lifecycle indepth. I have a certain depth of knowledge of that but not enough depth to say definitively when WizardModel is first accessed, but here are some possibilities:
WizardModel.wizardTitle = WizardModel.wizardTitleBase;      In the WizardController "wizardTitleChangeHandler" event handler
creationComplete="WizardModel.app = this;"      In the Wizard.mxml main app creationComplete handler
<mx:Panel title="{WizardModel.wizardTitle}" width="100%" height="100%">    Opening tag of Panel in Wizard.mxml
I know its confusing, but just try to absorb what you can for now, and over time it will become gradually more clear.

Best Practices for Upgrade UCS firmware from 2.0 to 2.2?

Hi
I have Cisco UCS system ( 2 FI, 4 Chassis with 32 Server ) running 2.0 firmware. Now I want upgrade to 2.2. When I check document "Upgrading Cisco UCS from Release 2.0 to Release 2.2", I see have 2 solution:
- 1. Upgrading from Release 2.0 with Auto Install -> Step simple but all server reboot at same time.
- 2. Manually Upgrading from Release 2.0. -> Step more complex but can upgrade server one by one.
My question:
- Can I "Upgrade the infrastructure firmware with Auto Intall but upgrade Server with Manual"?
- What is best for my case?
Thanks

Hi Phamcongtuan,
In UCS you can create host firmware policy that can be used to upgrade the firmware of your blades. Once you upgrade the infrastructure firmware, you can apply the host firmware policy to the service profiles of your blades. If you are using service profiles templates you will need to unbind the service profiles and apply the policy to the individual servers.

What is the best practice for removing IMAPMail files from Thunderbird Profiles folder?

I removed some old IMAP accounts via Account Settings > Remove Account. But I see that the IMAP files (Inbox, Drafts, Sent, .msf, .sbd, etc.) for the accounts are still in /Library/Thunderbird/Profiles/*.default/ImapMail. What is the proper way to delete these old account files?

When the corresponding account has been removed, there's no association to Thunderbird anymore. The files are kept on purpose in case an account has been deleted by error.
You should be certain that you don't need those files anymore though.
It probably wouldn't hurt to create a backup of your profile prior to deleting the files either.

Best practices for migrating merged WebHelp from RH7 to RH8?

We're using RH7 and we'll be migrating to RH8 in November. I'm startingto get the impression I should budget the time to build up each project anew in RH8 rather than just opening copies in the new UI and hoping it all works. Has anyone blazed this trail? Willing to chat about it?
Thanks

Hi Roy.
If the networked file was purely a backup there shouldn't have been a problem. If however the file was a source file for a project that was opened on a network drive it could very easily have caused you problems. Unfortunately most people find out the hard way
