  • Connect SharePoint to SQL Server Database Then Build Rules Based Returns System

    Hello Guys,
    I work for an ecommerce business. We sell a wide range of products to customers all around the world which are ordered from our websites and then dispatched to our customers from our warehouses.
    I have been tasked with developing a computerised return system from the company because at the moment everything is done using paper forms.
    We have all our customer, order and product data within SQL Server databases.
    What I would like to know is...
    1. Can we connect sharepoint online to a local sql server database
    2. Could we then build searches within sharepoint to display data contained within these databases e.g. customer information etc
    3. How is the data presented in sharepoint - is there a way to design how the data is displayed within sharepoint etc?
    4. Can we then build a rules based return system within sharepoint? The on screen workflow would need to vary according to data contained within the database e.g. the weight if the product being returned and also on fields input by the service agent such
    as the reason for the return, what solution the customer would like etc.
    5. is it possible to build these workflows in such a way that they can be saved part way through then gone back to later
    6. Can reports be build based on the returns that are being generated e.g. list of products most commonly returned
    Sorry for all the questions, I am a bit of sharepoint novice. I think it may possible be able to do what we need but I just wondered if the answer to any of the above questions is definately a no because if it is that could mean it is not suitable
    Thanks

    You could use a BCS connection
    http://community.office365.com/en-us/b/office_365_community_blog/archive/2012/10/11/business-data-connectivity-services-in-office-365-sharepoint-online.aspx, this will allow you to edit data in your non SharePoint SQL DB, on premises, from Office 365 SharePoint.
    Search will index the web applications you point it at, and the lists from the BCS will be part of those web apps, site collections, sites at some place and will get indexed. 
    You can create views on the data, that can sort of work like a search, but when you search on the site where the lists are the query will return results based on the BCS data.
    These views can be based on criteria such as the weight of the product being returned and other fields.
    The data is presented as a list.
    You can make it read only or read-write based on SharePoint permissions on the list.  The account used to create the connection can edit.
    BCS is possible in on-premises SharePoint too
    here is a good read on it,

  • Can I connect my form to a database to populate data?

    Can I connect my form to a database to populate data?

    Hi;
    You want to poplulate your form with data from a database, or to populate the database from the form?
    There isn't any way to import the data into the form in FormsCentral from a database.  To populate and external database from the table on the View Responses tab there are no APIs to do it automatically but you can export to Excel or CSV and then import the Excel or CSV into your database:  http://forums.adobe.com/docs/DOC-1383

    if you give incorrect user name or password it will throws an exception in the console.

  • Connection between two SQL Azure Databases

    We have a requirement to move data (partial data in a table based on policy conditions) between two SQL Azure Databases. Want to know the best possible way to do this.
    We are not looking at Data Sync Framework - as this is only a Preview version and we have to use this in an ongoing basis in Production and the volume of data is quite high.
    The option that we have currently is to use an on premise stored procedure - that will have two link servers to the source and target SQL Azure Databases and do the data movement in one transaction.
    Are there any other better options to do this ? Any pointers will be helpful.

    Hi Kothai Ramanathan,
    According to your description, if you just want to moving part of the data from a huge table between two different SQL Server database, you can use
    SQL Server replication to sync the part of data via articles. However, in SQL Azure database, it does not support SQL Server replication, if you want to migrate database, as other post, you
    can use Data-Tier Application Import and Export or other ways.
     In addition, for just moving the part of data,  you can also create two Linked Servers between local SQL Server database and two different SQL azure database. For example, you can get the changed data from the first Linked
    Server and saved the data to Local database, then insert these data to the other azure database via the second Linked Server.
     For more information, see:

  • Connect to Existing SQL Azure Database

    I'd like to create a Azure Mobile Service (.NET) that reads / writes from an existing database that is being used by an MVC 5 app. I've been trying, without luck, for the better part of a day to make this happen through the few examples that exist on the
    internet.
    I've just now come across this
    StackOverflow post where Carlos Figueira, in a response, says that a mobile service creates a new schema with the same name as the service name and all access is done via that schema and the user that has permission to that schema. If this is the case,
    how will I be able to have my mobile service connect to an existing table, if it always creates new tables in the new schema?
    Also, I'm getting the impression that mobile services using .NET is much happier if I don't attempt to connect to an existing DB. Is this the case?
    Randy Minder

    Thank you Matt. I have an additional question, if you don't mind. It appears that if I attempt to connect to an existing Azure DB from Mobile Services, that wasn't created by Mobile Services, a new schema is created in my DB, and Mobile Services recreates
    the tables I'm trying to access in that new schema.
    For example, say I'm try to access a table named Alert from a mobile service named MyMobileService. It appears that Mobile Services creates a schema named MyMobileService, and a table named Alert in that schema, and uses that table, instead of the table
    I really want it to use. 
    Is this correct? If so, I really don't want Mobile Services doing this. Is there a work around?

  • Can't Connect to online games / other players Wii U

    I can browse the internet and see other people online on my wii u via wifi but i cant connect to online games of mario kart 8 and people cant connect to my games of mario kart 8. There is a lot going around about how poor telstra is for supporting this but I want to play mario kart 8 online, if I can't do that on telstra then I will take my business elsewhere.

    Leigh-M,
    BigPond does not provide support for 3rd party devices such as the WiiU. If you are experiencing difficulties your first point of contact would be Nintendo.
    Can you confirm what troubleshooting steps you have done?
    Have you made sure you have the latest firmware updates?
    Confirmed that there are no ports that need to be opened to do this?
    Have you tried manually configuring the DNS servers to those of other states or using Googles public DNS?
    Have parental controls been disabled?
    Are you able perform a traceroute to the server?

  • Can't open Sharepoint Online site in Sharepoint Designer 2013

    Hello!
    I am trying to open a Sharepoint Online secure site in Sharepoint Designer 2013 (v15). When I try to open the site in Sharepoint Designer i get an error stating: 
    "Server error: The version of Microsoft SharePoint Foundation running on the server is more recent than the version of SharePoint Designer that you are using. You need a more recent version of SharePoint
    Designer."
    I used to have the preview version installed, but I uninstalled it and got the latest version I could find (version 15?). I checked the SharePoint version on the server (/_vti_pvt/service.cnf) and it says: 
    vti_encoding:SR|utf8-nl
    vti_extenderversion:SR|16.0.0.1706The public site I have has the same version and it opens just fine in SharePoint Designer 2013. Are there any new versions of SharePoint Designer 2013 available that I have missed? My SharePoint Designer is up to date via Windows Update.I am running the designer on Windows 7 Ultimate x86.

    I had the same issue today. Here what I have found.
    I was using different credentials for my different SharePoint site in SPD 2013. When I try to access my new SharePoint online site (Which has different Account) the SharePoint Designer directly show me  
    "Server error: The version of Microsoft SharePoint Foundation running on the server is more recent than the version of SharePoint Designer that you are using. You need a more recent version of SharePoint Designer."
    then I changed my Account Credentials by
    Open SPD 2013
    1)click File
    2) Click Account
    3) Log out from current user name
    4) sign in by using the same credential  as your new SharePoint Site.
    DONE!
    I think this error is not useful as it (this error) is not about which version of SharePoint you are using but more about Account credentials.(At least for me) Hope that helps.

  • Can dw cs3 connect directly to sql server database without a testing server?

    I'm new to dreamweaver but have used script tools that link
    directly to my sql server database.
    Not in dw, so far. As of this early stage, I don't have or
    want to use a web server, and it's blocking me
    without one. I just want to prototype without a testing
    server, directly to my database. And while I'll try php
    later, I didn't want to have to get into it or cold fusion,
    etc. right away.
    Can dw connect directly to sql server database without a

    I'm running XP sp 3 at this point, and don't see IIS. There's
    probably some security issues
    I'll have to tangle with. The goal is for my website to end
    up on the company intRAnet, not the www.
    fwiw, I can Build in Data Link Properties and get a
    successful test to my sql server database via
    Microsoft Data Link, but once I go back and try the test in
    OLE DB Connection it balks on the testing server,
    as I don't have one locally or otherwise. Isn't there a way
    to link to db without a testing server?
    Thanks for any insights.

    Yes, you can. However, Dreamweaver's PHP server behaviors
    work only with
    MySQL. To connect to any other database, you need to hand
    code
    everything yourself.

  • ODT v11 Beta Installation Problem - Can't connect to Database

    Hi, I'm having difficulties setting up the ODT 11.1.0.5.10 beta. I'm fairly new to Oracle so I apologise if I've missed something obvious!
    First of all I tried installing ODT 10.2.0.2.21 and that worked fine (after I copies tnsnames into the appropriate folder).
    However, after installing v11 I can't connect to any of our databases anymore, either through VS2005 of PL/SQL developer, which we normally use. When I try to set up a data connection (in VS Server Explorer) using ODP.Net, I get 'ORA-12154: TNS: Could not resolve the connect identifier specified'.
    If I try to make a connection using the .Net Framework data Provider for Oracle, I get 'ORA-12541: TNS: no listener'.
    Testing the connection using Oracle Net Manager, however, succeeds without a problem.
    i put the tnsnames file in there, so that's not the problem. I'm not sure if the installation worked properly, as there are a lot less files & folders in the new Home added for the beta than in the one added for v10.2
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks,
    Grant

    Yeah, you could be onto something with the path, thanks - it seems like the installer for the v11 Beta misses \bin off the end of the new Oracle home path, which causes problems. Since fixing that, I can now connect with PL/SQL developer.
    however, I am still facing one problem which my colleague also seems to have. We have an 8.1 client installed, and when we try to set up a connection with VS2005, it uses the tnsnames from the 8.1 client.
    There is also a strange issue whereby if you go into the advanced settings, the database name is only set to the first couple of characters of the actual name, which is probably why it isn't working. However, if I set the correct name in the advanced settings, when you come out of that dialogue into the standard connection dialogue, the database has reverted back to the first one in the list, putting me in a most annoying vicious circle..
    Even this problem has now taken a back seat as I am now unable to load the connection screen at all' getting a 'Package Load failure' message (it seems to think the package is using a GUID which isn't on the system). This remains even if i reinstall the v11 Beta. I'm not sure how I got into this situation, but it seems that there is some DLL registered in VS2005 which is now incorrect and doesn't get reset on uninstall/installation.
    If anyone has any thoughts on my myriad problems please share them with me!
    Thanks,
    Grant

  • Clarification on SharePoint Online and SQL Server

    I have several subsites on a SharePoint 2013 server that uses external content types and the Business Data Connectivity Service to access tables in a SQL Server database. I used the Sharepoint 2013 Designer to configure most of this, but at times, I also
    used Visual Studio 2013. Everything works fine. It successfully uses a secure store Application ID to authenticate connections to a remote SQL Server (i.e. the SQL Server and SharePoint server are 2 completely different machines that are not even within the
    same domain). The external lists on the SharePoint site are capable of reading data in the SQL tables, updating data, adding new data, and deleting old data. I have specified permissions to users/groups that help me control who can access the external lists
    on the SharePoint sites. Everything has been working well for a while now.
    But now I have to start thinking about using SharePoint Online, instead of an on-premises SharePoint server. And everything I am reading indicates that what I do above is not going to work with SharePoint Online. It sounds like I will have to either move
    our database to a SQL Azure service, or if I want to continue using our existing SQL Server, then I am going to have to develop a WCF service that will allow SharePoint Online to communicate with our own SQL Server. Am I understanding this correctly? Or is
    there a way to take what I did above and make it work with SharePoint Online?
    Thank you,
    Steven

    Hi,
    We can use Hybrid Connections to connect SharePoint Online to an on-premises SQL Server.
    Here is a blog from MSDN for your reference:

    We can also customize a WCF service and publish it to public web site to achieve it.
