Best practice to Load FX rates to Rate Application in SAP BPC 7.5 NW

Hi,
What is the best practice/approach to load FX rates to Rate Application in SAP BPC 7.5 NW? Is it from ECC or BW?
Thanks,
Rushi

I have seen both cases.
1) Rates coming as a flat file from external system, treasury department, and ECC and BPC both loads in to respective systems in batch.
2) ECC pushes rate info to BW and data in turn get pushed to BPC along with other scheduled process chains.
How are rates entering your ECC?

BPC:NW - Best practices to load Transaction data from ECC to BW

I have a very basic question for loading GL transaction data into BPC for variety of purposes, would be great if you can point me towards best practices/standard ways of making such interfaces.
1. For Planning
When we are doing the planning for cost center expenses and need to make variance reports against the budgets, what would be the source Infocube/DSO for loading the data from ECC via BW, if the application is -
YTD entry mode:
Periodic entry mode:
What difference it makes to use 0FI_GL_12 data source or using 0FIGL_C10 cube or 0FLGL_O14 or 0FIGL_D40 DSOs.
Based on the data entry mode of planning application, what is the best way to make use of 0balance or debit_credit key figures on the BI side.
2. For consolidation:
Since we need to have trading partner, what are the best practices for loading the actual data from ECC.
What are the typical mappings to be maintained for movement type with flow dimensions.
I have seen multiple threads with different responses but I am looking for the best practices and what scenarios you are using to load such transactions from OLTP system. I will really appreciate if you can provide some functional insight in such scenarios.
Thanks in advance.

Best practices for loading apo planning book data to cube for reporting

Hi,
I would like to know whether there are any Best practices for loading apo planning book data to cube for reporting.
I have seen 2 types of Design:
1) The Planning Book Extractor data is Loaded first to the APO BW system within a Cube, and then get transferred to the Actual BW system. Reports are run from the Actual BW system cube.
2) The Planning Book Extractor data is loaded directly to a cube within the Actual BW system.
We do these data loads during evening hours once in a day.

Hi GK,
What I have normally seen is:
1) Data would be extracted from APO Planning Area to APO Cube (FOR BACKUP purpose). Weekly or monthly, depending on how much data change you expect, or how critical it is for business. Backups are mostly monthly for DP.
2) Data extracted from APO planning area directly to DSO of staging layer in BW, and then to BW cubes, for reporting.
For DP monthly, SNP daily
You can also use the option 1 that you mentioned below. In this case, the APO cube is the backup cube, while the BW cube is the one that you could use for reporting, and this BW cube gets data from APO cube.
Benefit in this case is that we have to extract data from Planning Area only once. So, planning area is available for jobs/users for more time. However, backup and reporting extraction are getting mixed in this case, so issues in the flow could impact both the backup and the reporting. We have used this scenario recently, and yet to see the full impact.
Thanks - Pawan

Best practice for load balancing on SA540

Are there some 'best practice' guide to configure out load balancing on SA540 .?
I've got 2 ADSL lines and would like device to auto manage outgoing traffic .. Any idea ?
Regards

Hi,
SA500 today implements flow based round robin load balancing scheme.
In the case of two WAN link (over ADSL), by default, the traffic should be "roughly" equally distributed.
So in general, users should have no need to configure anything further for load balancing.
The SA500 also supports protocol binding (~PBR) over WAN links. This mechanism offers more control on how traffic can flow.
For example, if you have 1 ADSL with higher throughput than the other ADSL link offers, you can consider to bind bandwidth-hungry app on the WAN link connecting to the higher ADSL link and the less bandwidth-hungary app on the other one. The other traffic can continue to do round robin. This way you won't saturate the low bandwidth link and give users better application experiences.

Richard

Best practices for loading swf's

Greetings,
Using CS5 AS2
I'm creating a website in flash (all the files will be in one directory/folder on SharePoint) and want to make sure that what seems to be working fine is best practice.
I have an index.swf with many buttons which will take the user to landing pages/content/other swfs. On these different buttons I have the script...
on (release) {loadMovieNum("name.swf", 0);} I could also do just {loadMovie("name.swf", 0);} ??
The movie transitions nicely to name.swf and on this page I have a button that returns the user to the index.swf...
on (release) {loadMovieNum("index.swf", 0);} Things move back to index.swf nicely and user can chose to go to another landing page.
It looks like I'm on the right track, bc nothing is going awry? but want to check. Am I following best practices for moving from one swf to another within a website?
Thanks for help or confirmation!!

loading into _level0 (and you should use loadMovieNum, not loadMovie, when loading into a level) undermines some of the benefits of a flash application: all the assets must load with each display change and the user sees a flash instead of appearing to transition seamlessly from one display to the next.

Best Practices for Loading Master Data via a Process Chain

Currently, we load attributes, text, and hierarchies before loading the transactional data. We have one meta chain. To load the master data it is taking more than 2 hours. Most of the master data is full loads. We've noticed that a lot of the master data, especially text, has not changed or changed very little since we implemented 18 months ago. Is there a precedence or best practice to follow such as do we remove these processes from the chain? If so, how often should it be run? We would really like to reduce the amount of the master data loading time. Is there any documentation that I can refer to? What are other organizations doing to reduce the amount of time to load master data?
Thanks!
Debby

Hi Debby,
I assume you're loading Master Data from a BI system? The forum here are related to SAP NetWeaver MDM, so maybe you should ask this question in a BI forum?
Nevertheless, if your data isn't changed this much, maybe you could use a delta mechanism for extraction? This would send only the changed records and not all the unchanged all the time. But this depends on your master data and of course on your extractors.
Cheers
Michael

Best Practices for Loading Data in 0SD_C03

Hi, Guru, I want to know which is the best practice to have information about Sales, billing, delivery. I know it has this Datasources.
Sales Order Item Data - 2LIS_11_VAITM
Billing Document Data: Items - 2LIS_13_VDITM
Billing Document Header Data - 2LIS_13_VDHDR
Sales-Shipping: Allocation Item Data - 2LIS_11_V_ITM
Delivery Header Data - 2LIS_12_VCHDR
Delivery Item Data - 2LIS_12_VCITM
Sales Order Header Data - 2LIS_11_VAHDR
Do I have to load all this Datasource to Infocube 0SD_C03 or I have to create copy of 0SD_C03 to mach with each Datasources.

Hi.
    If you just want to statistic the amount or quantity of the sales process,I suppose you to create 3 cubes and then use a multi provider to integrated those 3 cubes you created.for example:
    2LIS_11_VAITM -> ZSD_C01
    2LIS_12_VCITM -> ZSD_C02
    2LIS_13_VDITM -> ZSD_C03
In this scenario,you can enhance the 2lis_12_vcitm and 2lis_13_vditm with sales order data,such as request delivery date etc..and then create a Multiprovider such as ZSD_M01.

Best practice? Loading text with XML or AS?

I am developing some instructional material that will include
some practice questions. I know of 2 ways to handle the dynamic
text, but am not sure what is considered best practice in the Flash
community. Is XML the best, fastest or more efficient than
embedding the text into actionscript?
Thanks!
Brad

If the questions will ever need to be changed, updated, or
edited, then XML would be the best.
If you just need the quickest way to build your Flash and not
have to worry about loading external files and what to do if the
file isn't available, then put them into the body of the
FLA.

Best practice to load a table that is a relationship between 2 parent tabs

I need to know what is the best way to load a table that is a kind of relationship between 2 master tables and that is relating them. It is an append procedure not a replace procedure.
should it be a sqlldr?
what tool should be used?
Thanks a lot.

Yes it is inside of a file that is a kind of .txt, it is ASCII.
I want to load without having problems with constraints at all.
But the point is that it should be fast enough to avoid performance problems.
Thank you.

Best practice for loading config params for web services in BEA

Hello all.
I have deployed a web service using a java class as back end.
I want to read in config values (like init-params for servlets in web.xml). What
is the best practice for doing this in BEA framework? I am not sure how to use
the web.xml file in WAR file since I do not know how the name of the underlying
servlet.
Any useful pointers will be very much appreciated.
Thank you.

It doesnt matter whether the service is invoked as part of your larger process or not, if it is performing any business critical operation then it should be secured.
The idea of SOA / designing services is to have the services available so that it can be orchestrated as part of any other business process.
Today you may have secured your parent services and tomorrow you could come up with a new service which may use one of the existing lower level services.
If all the services are in one Application server you can make the configuration/development environment lot easier by securing them using the Gateway.
Typical probelm with any gateway architecture is that the service is available without any security enforcement when accessed directly.
You can enforce rules at your network layer to allow access to the App server only from Gateway.
When you have the liberty to use OWSM or any other WS-Security products, i would stay away from any extensions. Two things to consider
The next BPEL developer in your project may not be aware of Security extensions
Centralizing Security enforcement will make your development and security operations as loosely coupled and addresses scalability.

Best Practice - Bounded Task Flows, Regions and Nested Application Modules

Using JDev 11.1.1.3; understand that it's generally considered good practice to just have 1 root application module servicing model content / services for each page. In our application, we've used a number of bounded task flows and page fragments deployed as af:region's into pages as either a) views targeted in page-flow navigation, b) tab panel content inside a regular jspx, or c) af:popup / af:dialog content. As it stands, we've not engaged nesting of the application modules for this embedded region content, so these regions are no doubt instantiating new AM's if/when invoked. Should the AM's servicing these embedded regions be deployed nested within the root AM's, and then if so, does this change the way that the jsff / fragment content is actually developed (currently as per any other jspx using the DataControl pallete). Or are the best-practice directives talking about a page as being the design-time / declarative composition of content rather than the run-time aggregation of page + fragments ... in which case the fact that our embedded fragments are not using nested AM's is unlikely to concern.
Thanks,

To design a windows app, we need to understand Microsoft design principles first:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/library/windows/apps/hh781237.aspx Use these principles as you plan your app, and let them guide your design and development choices
Microsoft also provide a page of design guideline:

Best practice for Web Dynpro for Java to connect to SAP HR

What is best way to connect Web Dynpro for Java application deployed in SAP portal to connect to SAP HR ?
Is it good practice to connect to underlying SAP database ( eg oracle) directly to get the data or is there a better way ?
This below article describes to connect to external DB, however Is there any other way for SAP HR ?
http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/WDJava/WebDynproApplciationwithDatabaseMS+Access

Hi,
There are 2 supported ways :
First is to use JCO connections to call abap RFC enabled function modules. (BAPIs for example)
Second is to call SOAP web services (HR enterprise services for example)
You should never access directly database tables...
