Best way to access Archive data

Hello,
I need to change few customized reports (z-reports) to make it fetch data from IXOS server.
This is done for SAP IS-H reports. So some of the tables for eg NBEW(movement table) will be archived and a correspoding
infostructre will be created acting as an indice to archive database.So my query is what is the correct approach to read the data from the IXOS server.
1. Query the infostructure . Change each select statement to make it read from the infostruture which points to IXOS
2. Directly read  files using  unix commands.
When we use option 1 or 2 what are the benefits ? which is better?
Some times may need to query both sap databse and IXOS, if the date range overlaps So what are the performance impacts.
Any ideas is highly appreciated.
Thank you.
Regards,
Abhilash

I would suggest to use the option 1, to query the infostructure.
With this you can access the data fast as the system would've generated indexes with the archived data.
Directly querying unix files might not be that good, as you need to identify the proper indexes to fetch the data, whcih we might not do so accurately at times.
Thanks,

  • Best method to access archived data

    We are archiving off General Ledger data from JRNL_LN and JRNL_HEADER from our production system to a reporting environment. The customer wants to have a content reference that will allow them to read the archived journal data in the other environment. The requirement is to have the same page that is used under General Ledger--Journals--Journal Entry--Create Journal Entries--Find an Existing Value. This screen provides a link to journals where you can view detailed journal information including approvals and attachments for the journal. It will need to be read only and display the archived journal data that resides in the reporting environment. I did some research and was thinking of creating a whole new component consisting of all the pages in the JOURNAL_ENTRY_IE component. This presents a problem though. The archived tables will not be the same name (JRNL_LN and JRNL_HEADER). For reasons, these table names will be changed (something like JRNL_LN_HST). There is a ton of PeopleCode that references the JRNL_LN and JOURNAL_HEADER records and fields. There is also the FUNCLIB_GL library that includes a bunch of references to the table fields as well. I would have to create copies of all the pages, update them with the correct table/field names and copy the FUNCLIB_GL library as well and rename all the references. This would be a huge undertaking. What would be the best approach to providing a read only screen for data that resides in a separate environment? They want the same screen to be used that is used in the production environment (listed above) that is used for reading GL data and making changes. Any thoughts?

    Is your reporting environment another PeopleSoft database or just a collection of archive tables?
    If it is a PeopleSoft database, you could keep the table names the same and run the same journal entry component in the reporting database. If users want to get to it directly from the production system, you could configure single sign-on and connect to the component in the reporting database from production.
    Note that there are additional tables that you should probably be archiving in addition to the header and lines. Some are probably not used, but you will probably have data in the JRNL_CF_BAL_TBL.
    You would have to be very careful to set security correctly in the reporting database so users don't accidently enter new journals in the wrong system. Customizing the page title, background color, etc. to provide visual cues would also help.

  • What is the best way to mimic the data from production to other server?

    Hi,
    here we user streams and advanced replication to send the data for 90% of tables from production to another production database server. if one goes down can use another one. is there any other best option rather using the streams and replication? we are having lot of problems with streams these days they keep break and get calls.
    I heard about data guard but dont know what is use of it? please advice the best way to replicate the data.
    Thanks a lot.....

    RAC, Data Guard. The first one is active-active, that is, you have two or more nodes accessing the same database on shared storage and you get both HA and load balancing. The second is active-passive (unless you're on 11.2 with Active Standby or Snapshot Standby), that is one database is primary and the other is standby, which you normally cannot query or modify, but to which you can quickly switch in case primary fails. There's also Logical Standby - it's based on Streams and generally looks like what you seem to be using now (sort of.) But it definitely has issues. You can also take a look at GoldenGate or SharePlex.

  • Best Way to port the data from one DB to another DB using Biztalk

    Hi,
    please suggest best way to move the data from one db to another DB using biztalk.
    Currently I am doing like that, for each transaction(getting from different source tables) through receive port, and do some mapping (some custom logic for data mapping), then insert to target normalized tables(multiple tables) and back to update the status
    of transaction in source table in sourceDB. It is processing one by one.
    How/best we we can do it using  bulk transfer and update the status. Since it has more than 10000 transaction per call.
    Thanks,
    Vinoth

    Hi Vinoth,
    For SQL Bulk inserts you can always use SQL Bulk Load
    adapter.
    http://www.biztalkgurus.com/biztalk_server/biztalk_blogs/b/biztalksyn/archive/2005/10/23/processing-a-large-flat-file-message-with-biztalk-and-the-sqlbulkinsert-adapter.aspx
    However, even though a SQL Bulk Load adapter can efficiently insert a large amount of data into SQL you are still stuck with the issues of transmitting the
    MessageBox database and the memory issues of dealing with really large messages.
    I would personally suggest you to use SSIS, as you have mentioned that records have to be processed in specific time of day as opposed to when the
    records are available.
    Please refer to this link to get more information about SSIS: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms141026.aspx
    If you have any more questions related to SSIS, please ask it in
    SSIS 
    forum and you will get specific support.

  • What is the best way to export the data out of BW into a flat file on the S

    Hi All,
    We are BW 7.01 (EHP 1, Service Pack Level 7).
    As part of our BW project scope for our current release, we will be developing certain reports in BW, and for certain reports, the existing legacy reporting system based out of MS Access and the old version of Business Objects Release 2 would be used, with the needed data supplied from the BW system.
    What is the best way to export the data out of BW into a flat file on the Server on regular intervals using a process chain?
    Thanks in advance,
    - Shashi

    Hello Shashi,
    some comments:
    1) An "open hub license" is required for all processes that extract data from BW to a non-SAP system (including APD). Please check with your SAP Account Executive for details.
    2) The limitation of 16 key fields is only valid when using open hub for extracting to a DB table. There's no such limitation when writing files.
    3) Open hub is the recommended solution since it's the easiest to implement, no programming is required, and you don't have to worry much about scaling with higher data volumes (APD and CRM BAPI are quite different in all of these aspects).
    For completeness, here's the most recent documentation which also lists other options:

  • Best way to accept a date from a user

    Hi Guys,
    Whats the best way to get a date from a user and add it in an
    insert record to access.
    I have a form that adds a record and it works well enough as
    long as the data added is in the correct format.
    Untill now ive just had a text box with an explination to the
    user on how to add the date and what format....
    But Im fed up with having to change bad entrys and need to
    place a control or something on the form but dont know whats
    easiest and best?
    Any ideas welcome.
    Thanks

    If you want today's date set the database up to insert the
    date
    automatically. If you want other dates than today's use a
    date picker or
    calendar to insert the date.

  • What is the best way to edit meta data..

    What is the best way to edit meta data and tag photos, faces, places etc. and have the data saved to the original photo.
    On a PC I would just use Windows Gallery. iPhoto on the Mac allows for some tagging, but it doesn't save to the original file.
    I like to have my photos in a folder, edit them and save the changes.
    What software would work best on a MAC to accomplish this?
    Thanks for any help,
    Nick

    iPhoto is a database and any metadata you add or edit is available in any app - if you learn how to use it.
    iPhoto is a non-destructive processor. It never touches the original file - it treats it like a film shooter treats the negative.
    If you want a copy of the original file with the metadata included simply export a copy.
    This User Tip
    https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4921
    has details of the options in the Export dialogue.
    As an FYI:
    For help accessing your photos in iPhoto see this user tip:

  • Best way to "page" through data?

    If I have a XM, something like
    <people>
    <person>
    <firstname>john</firstname>
    <lastname>smith</lastname>
    </person>
    <person>
    <firstname>robert</firstname>
    <lastname>walker</lastname>
    </person>
    </people>
    And I create some bound fields to display this, what's the best way to "page" the data?
    I know I can create an XML variable of the data and then access person[0].firstname, but I need to have a button or other ui element that would choose person 0,1,2,3 etc.
    Normally I's use a list, but this application calls for a static screen where only the data changes when buttons are chosen.

    I use this method(this is simplified) as it doesn't require any sort of data services, you can have change events etc for editing/deleteing. the slider is just for poc, a prev/next button could just as easily do.

    Paragon even has non-destriuctive conversion utility if you do want to change drive.
    Hard to imagine using 3TB that isn't NTFS. Mac uses GPT for default partition type as well as HFS+

  • I am giving away a computer, what is the best way to wipe out data prior to depature

    i am giving away a computer, what is the best way to wipe out data prior to depature

    Did the Mac come with two grey disks when new? If so, use disk one to erase the drive using Disk Utility and then re-install the OS from the same disk. Once installed, quit and when the new owner boots they can set it up as a new out-of-the-box Mac when they boot it up. The grey disks need to be passed on with the computer.
    If you need detailed instructions on how to erase and re-install please post back.
    If the Mac came with Lion or Mountain Lion installed the above process can be done using the Recovery HD as since Lion no restore disks are supplied with the Mac.
    The terms of the licence state that a Mac should be sold/passed on with the OS installed that was on the machine when new (or words to that effect).

  • Best way to access my mac G4 files when working on a windows pc laptop

    Hi - I'm looking for ideas on the best way to access files stored on my G4 mac, when working on a pc laptop elsewhere in the house.
    I'm not sure if this involves setting up a network, or whether I should be looking at ftp or even bluetooth.
    Just to explain what I'm after: I'm writing a book, primarily on my g4 (running panther) in my study. But I spend a large proportion of my day running after my rampaging toddler. I'd like to make better use of my time by being able to grab my partner's laptop and write while my toddler is occupied for twenty minutes.
    Messing around with a memory stick etc would just take too long as I'd have to remember to update the main file. It would get very messy!
    I hope someone can help!
    Thanks, Tina

    Between the networking question(s) to connect the two different platform
    computers, using Sharing and other settings in each, the next question is
    about the software used in the documents you are to be creating in one
    and sending to the other.
    Do you have a similar word processing software for the PC as in the Mac;
    or something compatible in creating and using .RTF documents, etc. Or,
    if you have a Windows version of AppleWorks, that would work. And the
    TextEdit in your OS X can handle rich text format word processing; and
    probably open basic text from a PC fairly easy. (And Word, etc, can.)
    Issues in sharing, are such that you have to be careful when changing the
    settings in your computers, that you don't accidentally share your computer
    contents with other persons and computers in the vicinity. By wire would be
    the most secure, since Ethernet can be used locally to share.
    Internet and wireless may be a possibility, too; or using a local shared external
    drives, if visible to both computers, depending on the network setup.
    Do you have a USB hard disk drive set up on your wireless network, and
    formatted in Fat32 so the Mac and PC can both see and use it? If so, you
    may be able to send documents to there from the PC and use them in the
    Mac. This may work, and depending on how the files were organized, not
    too hard to keep up with the draft copies generated from the PC for use in
    the Mac at a later time, and so on. This way, both computers would not
    need to be on, to send & receive a file...
    {For that matter, using a Google Account could be helpful;
    to just email the writing to yourself, at any computer.}
    Anyway, there are several possibilities, including those in the link to another
    discussion on that topic per the above post.
    Good luck & happy computing!
