DataTime type shows as Timestamp(6) in BAM Database Table

Hi,
I am new in BAM,
Am facing an issue with BAM Data Object. I have two DateTime fields in DataObject. But when I look in BAM database Table,the field data type is stored as TIMESTAMP(6).
I want both the elements in DateTime format. Is there any reason why BAM stores DateTime field as TIMESTAMP(6) in Database. If this is the case how can i change the datatype back to datetime in BAM.
Please help.
Thanks.

Thanks All,
Got my answer.
I would like to ask one more question, If i create new Data Object from BAM architect, Added fields. Now if i want to add more fields or have to change any data Type of existing field.
Is there any restart required for BAM server after making the changes.
Thanks.

How to Find the Data Type of the Field In a Database Table

Hi Experts,
I'm currently working on a program which needs to find out the data type of the given field in a database table. In addition to accessing DD03L directly, is there any other workaround such as function module to help me achieve this? It would be helpful if a demo example could be provided.
Thanks a lot.

Hi,
Use this..
DESCRIBE FIELD dobj TYPE typ.
write typ.
type will contain the data type of the object.

Timestamp field in BAM dataobject

Hi,
There is requirement for us to find response time of a service in milliseconds. For this we need to insert two timestamp fields in BAM data object. But BAM is allowing us to include only one Timestamp field in a data object.Is there any other work-around to overcome this problem.

Hi,
UPMOD Record Mode -- check there is a filed record mode which will handle the images.
Check the help link
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/be/928f40f5767d17e10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm
In the delta process, the DataSource transfers the record data with the new status in each case. For this reason, the data cannot be updated directly to the InfoCube. The update is only possible using the ODS object (update with MOVE).
For safety, the delta process uses a lower interval setting of one hour (this is the default setting). In this way, the system always transfers all postings made between one hour before the last delta upload and the current time. The overlap of the first hour of a delta upload causes any records that are extracted twice to be overwritten by the after image process in the ODS object with the MOVE update. This ensures 100% data consistency in BW.
For deltas settings
you can make important global settings in SAP R/ in the table BWOM_SETTINGS.

Type Show Hidden Characters doesn't display hidden chars, what to do?

When I select Type > Show Hidden characters, the display does not change and the hidden characters stay hidden. Is there something additional that I need to do to see the hidden characters?

Under View, change your Screen Mode to Normal. In any other mode, guides and hidden characters won't show.

FileDialog File Types show *.txt, please help.

Hi, I have created a very basic text editor. I created a FileDialog in order to save and open files. However, what's the method or class that I can use in order to make the File Types shows the specific extension I am looking for. e.g. *.txt instead of *.* ?

Wow, two birds one stone:

fileDialog.setFile( "FileNameGoesHere" );
fileDialog.show();

How to change a field of type CHAR of a database table to DATS

Dear ABAP experts,
I have a database table: ZLT_aztnew with fields M1, M2, K1, K2, A1, A2, P1, P2, S2, D1, D2, STD, BES. All these fields are of type 'Character'. except D2 which is of type DATS. The field D1 is date and is in format DD.MM.YYYY.
I want to convert this field D1 to type DATS so that I can use a date range through 'selection option' to select other data of other fields (M1, M2, K1, K2, A1, A2, P1, P2, S2, D1, STD, BES.) related to field D1 from the database table Zlt_aztnew.
How should I introduce this change (CONVERSION OF D1 CHAR to DATS in the .AZT file upload code itself.
Problem: If I define D1 as Type DATS in database table ZLT_AZTNEW then the UPLOAD fails.

How to create a BAM database in enterprise version

Hi,
I need to configure and create a BAM database for my client in an AL Process Interaction installation. I tried to follow the documentation to create the BAM schema, but was not successful. It threw me a message telling me the Driver was not found. I did not see any documentation how to register a driver in the Process Administrator.
Is there any specific documentation for Configuring BAM. Also I was not able to run the BAM reports in the Process Designer. Has anybody done this before?? If so any documentation of how to do that will help.
Thanks
Pal

Hi Raul,
Thanks for the information. I guess in ALIP if you choose database subtype as SQL Server(Plumtree), then you dont have to install drivers.
Now I was able to create the BAM database. THen I installed the Fuegowarehouse service. When I start the servide I see the following error. But is there any config file where I can increase the maximum fetch size??

The reason that i need the timestamps in there is that i am creating a time clock program for my school that they can put on a intranet so thier hourly employees can use instead of the current manual system they use.

even better would be to use prepared statements and set the fields via Timestamp objects.
String sql = "insert into timesheet(IDNUM ,TimeIn ,TimeOut ,HoursWorked ) values (?,?,?,?)";
Statement stmt = cnxn.prepareStatement(sql);
int idNum = (Integer)session.getAttribute("IDNum").intValue();
Timestamp stamp = new Timestamp(System.currentTimeMillis());
stmt.setInt(1, idNum);
stmt.setTimeStamp(2, stamp);
stmt.setTimeStamp(3, stamp);
stmt.setInt(4, 0);
stmt.execute();It makes your code much more portable, as you don't have to worry about the database having a TO_DATE function with that syntax.

Creating a external content type for Read and Update data from two tables in sqlserver using sharepoint designer

Hi
how to create a external content type for Read and Update data from two tables in sqlserver using sharepoint designer 2010
i created a bcs service using centraladministration site
i have two tables in sqlserver
1)Employee
-empno
-firstname
-lastname
2)EmpDepartment
-empno
-deptno
-location
i want to just create a list to display employee details from two tables
empid firstname deptno location
and same time update in two tables
adil

When I try to create an external content type based on a view (AdventureWorks2012.vSalesPerson) - I can display the data in an external list. When I attempt to edit it, I get an error:
External List fails when attached to a SQL view
Sorry, something went wrong
Failed to update a list item for this external list based on the Entity (External Content Type) 'SalesForce' in EntityNamespace 'http://xxxxxxxx'. Details: The query against the database caused an error.
I can edit the view in SQL Manager, so it seems strange that it fails.
Any advice would be greatly GREATLY appreciated.
Thanks,
Randy

The type of the database table and work area (or internal table)...

Hello
I am trying to use a database and select all records from it and store them into an internal table.
My code:
Select * from xixi_dbcurrency into table gt_currency.
The error:
"The type of the database table and work area (or internal table) "GT_CURRENCY" are not Unicode-convertible . . . . . . . . . .     "
Any suggestions?
Thank you

Hi Thomas,
Thank you for your inputs above.
But as you suggested is we use INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE then it resolve the error.
But I have below piece of code:
DATA:    it_new_source TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF _ty_s_sc_1,
              wa_source TYPE _ty_s_sc_1,
              wa_new_source TYPE _ty_s_sc_1,
              ls_target_key TYPE t_target_key.
SELECT * INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE it_new_source
       FROM /bic/afao06pa100
       FOR ALL ENTRIES IN SOURCE_PACKAGE
       where /bic/fcckjobno = SOURCE_PACKAGE-/bic/fcckjobno
       and /bic/fcckjitid = SOURCE_PACKAGE-/bic/fcckjitid.
But since this is reading into corresponding fields of table the data load from one DSO to other DOS is running for long more that 15 hours and still not getting completed and giving dump.
So if I switch the search to below:
SELECT * FROM /bic/afao06pa100
   INTO TABLE it_new_source
       FOR ALL ENTRIES IN SOURCE_PACKAGE
       where /bic/fcckjobno = SOURCE_PACKAGE-/bic/fcckjobno
       and /bic/fcckjitid = SOURCE_PACKAGE-/bic/fcckjitid.
Then I am getting below error:E:The type of the database table and work area (or internal table) "IT_NEW_SOURCE" are not Unicode convertible.
Can you please advice on this, as performance need to improve in start routine code.
Thank You.

it is giving syntax error
"The type of the database table and work area (or internal table)

Could any one help me out how to resolve this problem....
Thanks in advance

Dear Shayamal,
XXX....are not Unicode convertible
This error comes while inserting or updating database and the fields are not matching between data base table and structure .
Check you fields of data base table and "zle_lagerplanung" and struture "it_zle_lagerplanung" . There fields must match.
thanks and regrds,
