Data management question

Hai All,
We have an ODS(ODSP) in production system with data and another ODS(ODSQ) in our BW quality system. Can I make an export data source of the ODSP and move the data in the ODS in production system to an ODS (ODSQ)in quality system? Is that possible. I mean I am making the ODSP as the source and ODSQ as the data target. Is that possible? If yes, can anybody tell me how to do it? ANy document reference is also very mucha ppreciated.
Thank you.

Hi!
itis posible if changes are allowed in your productive system and if you have enough authorizations.
procedure is simple.
1) generate export data source for the ODSP
2) go to transaction RSA6 in BW production system and check your 8ODSP data source
3) create a BW source system in your quality management system to connect to BW productions system(i think it might have been done already). replicate data sources.
4) create ainfosource which simmilar fields in the ODSP and then create tansfer rules by assigning your infosource to your 8ODSP under the BWP sourcesystem
5) creat upload rules and sechdule it through infopackages.

Data management question - do I even have a problem?

My media files (captured HiDef "iMovie" segments straight from the camcorder) are all on a large external drive where I want them, and FCE seems to have no trouble finding them. Yet.
But I have inadvertently screwed up their organization: In "FCE Documents" on my media drive I have a "Capture Scratch" folder, which contains folders at two different hierarchical levels: a folder with captured media files and another "Capture Scratch" folder, which in turn contains three folders, one of which has the same name name as the media-file-containing folder at the level above, but only partially duplicates its contents. (The name of both these media-file-containing folders is the project name for all this footage.)
I have a PC user's horror of having folders with the same name, especially when one contains the other. But I have no FILES with the same name, as I have typed in a date-and-location tape name for each HiDef capture. At this point I only have one batch of files that is duplicated on the media drive.
So, two questions:
1) Do I need to tidy up my filing system on the media drive or will FCE and Mac be forever OK with folder names ("capture scratch" and the project name) that appear at two levels? (And if so, how? A reference or topic search would be helpful -I know it's a Mac issue, not an FCE one.)
2) Can I delete the duplicated files, assuming that FCE will be able to find them in another place on the media drive?
Hope I haven't painted myself in a corner that will cave in on me someday...
Thanks for any suggestions,
SS

Hi Sharon,
There's probably no way to tell how you got into this situation, but it would be better for your long term sanity to clean this up. You should have only one Capture Scratch folder and in that folder there should be only one folder for each of your FCE projects, and no other folders. The clips associated with each project should only be in their corresponding folder.
Here's what you have to be careful about - if you have duplicate folders and duplicate clips you probably don't know which ones are actually being used by your FCE project. And when you move them to a new location, FCE will consider the media to be offline the next time you open FCE. You can reconnect the media, but you have to know which is the right folder & clips to reconnect to.
So, I'd suggest that before you move anything, open your project, go to the FCE browser and methodically highlight each clip one at a time and do Edit > Item Properties (or Control-click on the clip). In the Item Properties window, look at the Source field to see exactly which file in which folder is actually that clip. Make notes so you know exactly what clip files your project is using.
Then go to the Finder and move your folders & files so you have only one folder for each project, and each folder has the correct clip files.
After you move the folders & files, the next time you open your FCE project you will probably get a 'Media Offline' error message and you will be prompted to reconnect media, at which point you need to be able to direct FCE to the correct folder & files.

Power Query/Data Management Gateway data refresh not working

Pretty new to o365/Power BI, but here's what I've got going on (hopefully someone can help me out):
I created a data management gateway and data source. The data source says it's online in the PowerBI admin center, and it seems to be working correctly. I can open Excel 2013 on my desktop (logging in as my trial o365 account which has Power
BI associated with it) and connect to the data source via Power Query using the oData option. I make sure to import the data into the model, and then open up the PowerPivot window and create a simple pivot table using the data in the model.
that all works just great. The problem comes when I upload the workbook and try to update it. I've tried a few different ways.
1. When I try to manually refresh the workbook by opening it in my o365 site and going to data-->refresh I get the following error:
      An error occurred while working on the Data Model in the workbook. Please try again.
      We were unable to refresh one or more data connections in this workbook.
      The following connections failed to refresh:
      Connection: Power Query - dbo_DimProductCategory
      Error: Out of line object 'DataSource', referring to ID(s) 'a75593f3-c34d-4f83-9458-49aa2cece164', has been specified but has not been used.
      The following system error occurred: Class not registered
      The provider 'Microsoft.Mashup.OleDb.1' is not registered.
      Power Query - dbo_DimProductCategory
2. When I go into Power BI and go to "Schedule Data Refresh" for the workbook, I get the following error:
      Sorry, the data connections in this report arenâ€™t supported for Scheduled Refresh.
      Technical Details â–¼
      Correlation ID: B3CE4B10-2137-E593-6FCF-189B73465190
      Date and Time: 03/31/2014 06:20:39 PM (UTC)
Any help would be greatly appreciated. If you need additional information, I'd be happy to provide it.

Hey Guy,
Thanks for the reply.
The "data source type" of the data source in Power BI is "SQL Server" (there was only that and Oracle available to select from)
The "data source type" that Power Query is using in Excel is "From oData Feed"....which is using the Power BI data source....which is using the data management gateway.
A few follow up questions if you have a second
1. Do you know when PowerQuery data refresh will be supported? (just a general idea....weeks, months, next year?)
2. Is there any other way to connect to (and be able to refresh) PowerBI data sources referencing "on prem" data via the data management gateway? I tried using the oData feed URL in non-PowerQuery areas of excel (excel data tab, PowerPivot directly)
but it didn't work. If there's some other way to connect to and refresh on prem data, i'm all ears :D
Really appreciate your help, thanks for taking the time.

Sort all the Records in Data manager based on Update Date

How to sort the reocrds in Data Manager based on Date or something ?
And also I have three records for a same customer in ( for three different company codes ) and when I search for this customer with the Customer number then it is showing three records , but when I search with Update Date then no records are fetched ...what is the reason ?

If you make a field as type "Time Stamp" in your data model using the MDM Console, make sure that the option Sort Index is set to Normal. If this is the case, whenever a record is updated in the repository, the date will be updated. If the sort index is normal, then MDM will allow you to sort the records based on the date and time by which they were updated. You can do this by finding your time stamp field in the MDM data manager and clicking on it. If there is an up and down arrow next to the name of your field, it means it can be sorted. Also, to answer your other question, you can definitely search based on date. Use the Free-Form Search on the left hand side of the data manager at the bottom of the screen. Simply select a date, and it will show you all the records updated on that date.

How to view the key mapping when viewing Hierarchy in Data Manager

Hi! I previously posted a question on doing value mapping using the hierarchy code rather than the name. I have got that working now using concept of remote key. When I first loaded the hierarchy with remote key and check in Data Manager, I can see the hierarchy structure with the key mappings. However, when I subsequently went back to the hierarchy to have a second look, the keys are gone. Does anyone know how I can view hierarchy in Data Manager with the key mappings?
Cheers!
SF

Hi,
Go to Record mode, and open Hierarchy table. Now to select click on any hierarchy node record and then right click and select "Edit Key Mappings". This will show you existing keys as well as allow you to manually modify keys. You can only Check Remote keys on hierarchy in Record mode and in Hierarchy Mode "Edit Key Mappings" option will be disabled.
Please revert if you face any issue.

Shiv

Create records in Data Manager - System creates dublicates

Hello MDM-Experts,
I have a kind of strange questions: has anyone ever had the following situation in MDM Data Manager?
When creating one (1) record manually in Data Manager, the system dublicates the records, and suddenly, we have 2 or even up to 4 identical records in the system. Only the auto id is of course different.
When looking at the create date, the time difference is only a few seconds (4 to 5 seconds difference).
There is no entry in the log files, so I do not really know, what the problem is.
Has anyone else ever had that? Is there a keyboard combination, that forces that?
Thanks for all your help and answers!
Best reards,
Stefanie

Hello Rajeev,
I am assuming something like that. We even assume by now, that the system can not kope with merging and creating records. Two collegues where doing that at the same time on the same repository, but not on the same records.
When the merging one stopps, the records are created exactly.
Will test your suggestion.
Thanks,
Stefanie

Using own SQLite DB in combination with Data Management

Hi,
Currently on a huge project we're we are using LCDS 3.1 in combination with a AIR 2.5 client.
I've been reading "Using Adobe LiveCycle Data Services ES2 version 3.1" and I have a question. In the chapter "Building an offline-enabled application" it says on the very first line:
"You can use an offline adapter with an AIR SQLite database to perform offline fills when a desktop client is disconnected from the LiveCycle Data Services server. An offline adapter contains the SQL queries for AIR SQLite for retrieving cached items like an assembler on the server retrieves items from the data source."
However, in my experience that AIR SQLite database is not just any DB but one that Datamanagment designs and generates itself, based on the Dto the DataManagement destination is managing. The offline adapter doesn't work like an assembler at all, because the documentation says you can only override the methods pertaining to constructing the WHERE, and ORDER BY parts of the queries, not the SELECT, CREATE, FROM,... parts.
In our case, we have a database on the server, constructed according to a very specific ERD, and we have a SQLite database on the client, also constructed according to a very specific ERD. What we want to do is execute every fill, create, update, delete against the offline cache and only synchronize with the backend when we want it the synchronize (technically possible by playing with the autoMerge, autoSaveCache, autoConnect,... properties). So what part of datamanagement can we customize to use our DB instead of a generated one?
Thx in advance!

You are correct in noting that Data Management does not allow you to use your own database to store offline data. This data is exclusively managed by the LCDS library for the developer. The intent is that the local cache is a reflection of the server data, not an independent copy.
If you have an existing database in AIR, then you will have much more direct control over the querying and updating of that data by using the SQLite APIs directly.
That being said, you can in essence replicate the data stored on the server, managed by Data Management, in the offline cache. In an upcoming release (winter 2011) we will have a few features ('briefcases' and a 'changes-only' fill) that will make this story even more compelling for your use cases. But even with the 3.1 functionality, you can do something like the following:
Perform a fill() to collect the data you want to have available on the client, save this in the offline cache
Construct an Offline Adapter Actionscript class that implements the fills you want to perform on the local data
Use the DataService.localFill() API to perform all of the client application fills, turn off autoCommit.
When the client is online, call commit() to store client changes and call fill() to refresh the cached data.
This should give you some ideas on how you could go about constructing your app to leverage the offline features of Data Services.

Import Comments data and Dimension Members from csv file via Data Manager

Dear Experts,
I have two questions regarding the data manager.
Q1.Is it possible to import "Comments" from the csv file via Data Manager?
We'd like to import the amount with "Comments".
My image of csv file is like below;
ACCOUNT,CATEGORY,TIME,ENTITY,INPUTCURRENCY,AMOUNT,COMMENTS
1100000,ACTUAL,2010/06,LC,30000,This is comment
Q2.Is it possible to import the dimension "members" from the csv file via Data Manager?
We have a user-defined dimension named "Project"
and would like to import the members, instead of maintaining them in BPC administration manually.
I found an online help information which says "Import Master Data from a Data File Example",
but I could not find any relevant sample package for this.
(I tried to import the members by using "Import" package, but it failed...)
reference:http://help.sap.com/saphelp_bpc75/helpdata/en/86/8b1bfc12c94fb0b585cca70d6f1b61/content.htm
Thanks in advance for your help.
Fumi

Hi Fumi,
In this case, I would suggest you to create a customized SSIS package which will fill-in the "Comment<APP>" table, according to the csv file you have. I do not know any standard package that allows you to import comment the way you would like...
Best Regards,
Patrick

Date Format in Data Manager (DD/MM/AAAA)

Hello Experts,
I have a problem with the date format in the MDM DATA MANAGER (Version 5.5.42.95).
I have a field of type LITERAL DATE.
When I see the Date in the DATA MANAGER, I see it in the format:
MM/DD/AAAA
I want to see the Date in the format:
DD/MM/AAAA
When I select the field to modificate his value, I suddenly see the date in the format DD/MM/AAAA.
[http://i30.tinypic.com/2a7u4nr.jpg]
But, when I end the modifications, i see it again in MM/DD/AAAA
[http://i30.tinypic.com/30csuoy.jpg]
Does anybody know how to solve this ?
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Mariano.-

Hi Nitin,
This options don't change the way you see the date in the Data Manager, this options are only for the Import Manager.
Thank you anyway for answering so fast.

Okey, thank you. I think this is a basic feature that MDM is missing, I hope they solve this in the next versions.
I'm going to leave the question unanswered for now.

Data Manager - export/import

My questions is as follows:
Export from: Oracle 8.17 (on Unix)
Import to: Oracle 8.05 (Windows2000)
How should I set the parameters in the Data Manager to make all tables/procedures/triggers etc.. come across complete and undamaged.?
I have tried many things - but usually the procedures become invalid and no triggers come across.
I have used IMP80 as well for importing with same result.

This is exactly why everyone out there should not get too comfortable using OEM to manage their databases. If you know how to do a task using the command-line, then by all means do it that way. Use OEM or DBA Studio for things you're not so sure of or if you need a visual to help you do it right. Command-line is quicker and more percise because you have total control of what info you're sending to the db.
Others may disagree with the advice I'm giving - which is to NOT use OEM if you know how to do the task via command-line - and further input is welcome. What do others think about this?????????

Data Manager Find- Replace

Can we do Find Replace in Data Manager, say on one field like street ?
for eg: I want to find all the "Avenue" or "avenue" and replace them with Ave
I know we can do it in Import manager, but is there a reason such functionality is not provided in data manager?
I browsed thru data manager guide and see that the menu option edit->find/replace is enabled only on object tables???!!
Can we achieve the same functionality through assignments?
Any inputs/leads appreciated!
-Sudhir

you are right Varun,
Using Import maps was what we did originally for address standardization,
But Value Transformation is lost if you unmap the field and remap them.
And thats what happened to us and we didn't quite check it!
The Data Manager route which you and some others suggested will not work , atleast in my case because:
if you noticed in data manager
start a selection, with say one record
-> Add another record to the selection , you know, using the shift key
-> you will see the details pane highlighting the differences, so far so good
-> for street , I will not see "only Avenue", because
A) Avenue is part of a street
B) And data manager will not exactly "tokenize" the differences
C) for egL if I have two street values like " 120 pennsylvania Avenue" & "5th saks Avenue", detail pane will highlight them as two distinct values and I cannot change Avenue to Ave and get the Job done.
most importantly...
keep on adding more records to the selection...
When you reach 10 records, notice the detail pane still lists all the 10 distinct street address side by side for street field
Add on more record and make the selection 11
then alll the fields in detail pane will turn to [..]
So I can no more go in and replace Avenue , I have to replace the entire street value with watever I type in place of [..]
So here is my question again:
Why is there no functionality simple like Edit->Find-> Replace just like an excel interface, I am sure it is not technologically impossible, but rather is there something basic I am missing in wishing for such facility?

Enabling data management for a coldfusion data service

Hello,
i have problem in calling a service withen a data service ,, that if i enable the data management i cant insert or update records , if i desable the data manabemt i can insert records but dont have result for get all or any get service all . it was working befor now no i completly remove the data service and created it again but the same problem even i deleted the valueobject and all the actionscript file related to that data service i have the same problem.
but
if i call the create record function ,, then i try to get the record i get the resutl from the database ?!!!
can someone help please

I saw the tutorial but that doesn't actually show how to configure for POST - it just uses GET and DELETE. When you configure for POST, you get prompted to "Specify an XSD that describes the structure of the request content". That implies that it is going to send the service an XML file as the attachment and wants to know the format of the XML file. The service that I want to use doesn't expect to receive an XML file, it expects form fields, and I think HTML forms send these like this:
p_zip_code=22209
p_selection=a
p_selection=b
p_selection=cOf course, the correct answer to my question may be "You can't get there from here" at least until 12c.
Ah ha! I see that some of what Frank mentioned is in the newly released 11.1.2.2, and didn't wait for 12c. I'll give that a try.

Data creation in data manager vs. ERP transaction

Hi experts,
I have a general question on working with MDM: When I use MDM as central data management tool then I create and change the whole data within MDM Data Manager or maybe in MDM iViews in EP. Doing that way I will loose a lot of positive aspects I had doing this in ERP formerly even when using business content.
For example:
- no process logic exists (which I had in ERP dynpros in the code): no preconfigured assignments, validations, relationships, etc.
- I have to know all relevant tables where I have to do my entries
- no standard searches for typical problems
- all roles and authorizations have to be created on my own (except standard roles like Admin, Data Expert, etc.), there is no possibility to transfer authorizations from ERP to MDM (authorizations can be very complex)
- you need more (expert) know-how to maintain data (which is also a job of business departments)
- etc.
So a change to central master data management means a step backwards from a dynpro controlled input GUI to a database frontend with only rudimental features and loosing a lot of functionality that was build within a lot of years.
Is this right or did I miss something important? I think loosing all this functionality can be a cause for resistance against introduction of MDM central data management in companys.
Thanks for your answers. Helpful answers will be rewarded.
BR, bd

Hi BD,
CMDM is one of the later stages in using MDM effectively.Before moving to a CMDM scenario it is necessary that ground base is set up.
- One goes for a CMDM scenario once all the one time data(exisiting data) is already cleansed.So firstly you need to extract all the possible high risk duplicates existing data from the ERP sytem into MDM ,run the matching merging strategies on them and then maintain the consistent data in MDM.Once this step is completed only then it makes sense to go for the creation of new data centrally through MDM.
- Just like in ECC when a user creates a new material for instance.He has to go through all the views and enter in all the required and optional fields value.In the same way this same scenario can be replicated in MDM by creting a repository with all the fields that one needs to enter while creating a new material. and by using MDM Validations we can simulate the same requirement of mandatory as in ECC.
- If you go for a Business content repository for Material,Vendor,Product etc you will have all the ready to use Roles with authorizations so its no a much of rework.
- Standard searches amy not be available in MDM but one can always desig his/her own search based on the customer requirement and MDM searches are very easy to use and also very dynamic.
I do agree that SAP MDM may not be a fully grown tool at this point of time but with the SAP MDM 7.1 vs most of these drawbacks will be addressed. and besides although ECC can do most of the Master data related work it is not a dedicated system for that purpose and will therefore have an influence on the performance and time involved aspects.
Hope It Helped,
Kindly Reward Points if found useful
Thanks & Regards
