Differences in Data Source Navigation Path

Can anyone tell me why some instances/implementations of WebLogic have different navigation paths to Data Sources? I've seen the following:
Example 1: Domain Structure > Services > Data Sources (Console version 12.1.1.0)
Example 2: Domain Structure > JDBC > Data Sources (Console version 10.3.3.0)
I thought I had seen the path Domain Structure > Services > Data Sources in 10.3.3.0! Does anyone know if these differences are due to versions of WebLogic or whether they are due to different installation options, preferences, or something else?

Hi,
Difference seen in path are due to versions, no issue with configuration/installations.
Going back there were changes made for JDBC path between versions 8.1 and 9.2 also.
Thanks,

Difference between Data Source & Tx Data Source

What is the difference between Data Source & Tx Data Source in Services->JDBC ?

JDBCTxDataSource gives you participation in JTS transactions on top of JDBCDataSource

So if you want the connections to participate in your EJB transactions, you must
use JDBCTxDataSource.

File Data Source Full Path of Top-level Directory

Hi There,
I am trying to create a File Data Source in BI Publisher.
Navigation: Admin --> File
The "Full Path of Top-level Directory" given for the demo_files (which comes with the product) is D:\OraHome_1\xmlp\XMLP\DemoFiles and all the demo reports are working fine.
However our BI Server is a Unix server and above path seems to be on windows server.
Please explain about this and how to locate the above path and place a new xml file.
Thanks
Krishna

if you are thinking of creating xml file in linux, and access in windows, you have to share the windows drive and mount them in linux.
so talk to you sysadmin, how to access windows folder in linux.

Difference between Data sources

Hi Experts,
Can u Pls explain what is the difference between the data sources
0FI_AR_3 : CUSTOMERS LINE ITEMS
0FI_AR_4 : CUSTOMERS LINE ITEMS WITH DELTA EXTRACTION.
Actually i am here in the implementation project. for FI the above 2 data sources having the same fields and also suggest me which one is better to use.
Regards
sridhar

0FI_AR_3 : CUSTOMERS LINE ITEMS : Old and is replaced by 0FI_AR_4.
This datasource was linked to FI-GL datasource.FI-GL datasource had to be loaded first which would set the timestamp for 0fi_ar_3 and 0fi_ap_3.
0FI_AR_4 : CUSTOMERS LINE ITEMS WITH DELTA EXTRACTION. : 0FI_AR_3 was replaced by 0FI_AR_4 which allows decoupling from FI-GL and the delta mechanism is independent of FI-GL.
There a some help.sap.com on the above check on them.
Hope this helps.

Hi,
The problem with period format that you are mentioning before executing the DS in RSA3.
Check the format of that field in source and provide the correct format.
Crrect Format : YYYYPPP
For your scenario provide the Period value as 2009001(Dont Put Dot) and execute the ds.You will be able to see the data in RSA3.

How to get date difference in data sources

Hi,
In SQL:SELECT DATEDIFF(day, '2005-12-30 23:59:59.9999999', '2005-12-30 00:00:00.0000000');
output :1
As similar way how get the datediffence in SAP business by design of the datasources.
Regards,
Prasad

Hi Prasad,
For this you have to create a Custom DATA SOURCE for the required BO. Then Select all the required fields that you want to use it in the report for that datasource.
The 3rd step of Data Source Wizard is shown in the image, here you can add a extra field that can hold the difference between the DateTime elements present in the BO.
In the left column BUSINESS OBJECT ELEMENT choose DATE element (1st Date).
In the right column TRANSFORMATION choose DateTime To Duration row and in the PARAMETER Column choose the field against which you want to calculate the difference.
In Defined Field Name enter a name, this will hold the value of the calculated difference.
Thank You

Upgrade from BW 3.5 to BW 7.0 (BI 7.0)
Some features of BI 7 are
1. In Infosets now you can include Infocubes as well.
2. The Remodeling transaction helps you add new key figure and characteristics and handles historical data as well without much hassle. This is only for info cube.
3. The BI accelerator (for now only for infocubes) helps in reducing query run time by almost a factor of 10 - 100. This BI accl is a separate box and would cost more. Vendors for these would be HP or IBM.
4. The monitoring has been imprvoed with a new portal based cockpit. Which means you would need to have an EP guy in ur project for implementing the portal !
5. Search functionality hass improved!! You can search any object. Not like 3.5
6. Transformations are in and routines are passe! Yess, you can always revert to the old transactions too.
this is a good PDF on Upgrade from BW 3.5 to BW 7.0

Data Source And Info Source

Hi Experts
Can anyone tell technical difference between data source and info soure ? Where data source will be and where will be info source .
Kumar

Hi Kumar,
DataSources include extraction source structures and transfer structures. Data is staged in the extraction source structure and the transfer structure, and transferred into the BW system by ALE or tRFC.
An InfoSource is always a quantity of Info Object that logically belong together. The structure in which these are stored is called a communication structure.
There are basically two types of InfoSources.
InfoSources with flexible updating
Info Sources with direct updating

Crystal ActiveX Runtime Lib: Change text data source path at run time.

We have some PCs running Crystal Reports 10 and some running CR 9 and 8.5. For each PC, we set up a System DSN ODBC data source (in Control Panel - Administrative Tools) for pulling data from text files to
generate reports.
Recently we wrote some routines (see the Visual Basic example at the
end of this message) to change the path of the data files at runtime.
According to the Crystal Reports Technical Reference Guide, we may use
the method LogOnServer() of an Application object or an DatabaseTable
object. However, we find that this does not work: the PrintOut()
method only pulls data from the default path as configured for the
System DSN, not from the path passed as the third parameter of
LogOnServer(). It does not return any error message.
We have also tried to use SetTableLocation() method, and it still does
not work.
Would any experts examine our code below and advise what we are missing? Thanks.
For the following VB example, we have:
System DSN Name: AP_WORKSHEET
Driver: Microsoft Text Driver
Database Directory: D:\0ood2 (i.e. the default path)
Crystal Report Document: D:\3g\run\Vision\apcyto\Reports\crBlockWS.rpt
(Which specifies that the data source text file name is BlockWS.txt)
Purpose : We would like to read the data source text file from
D:\0ood1 instead of the default path.
Following is the code of the VB macro:
Sub test()
Rem In this version of the subroutine, we call
Rem DatabaseTable.LogOnServer() and "Rem"ed out
Rem Application.LogOnServer() and SetTableLocation().
Rem We have un"Rem"ed each of them and "Rem"ed others and try to run.
Rem In all runs, data are pulled from the default file
Rem D:\0ood2\BlockWS.txt instead of D:\0ood1\BlockWE.txt.
Dim crxapp As CRAXDRT.Application
Dim crxRep As CRAXDRT.Report
Dim crxDB As CRAXDRT.Database
Dim crxTab As CRAXDRT.DatabaseTable
Dim crxConnPs As CRAXDRT.ConnectionProperties
Dim crxConnP As CRAXDRT.ConnectionProperty
Dim apropSubLoc As String
Dim apropConnBufStr As String
Set crxapp = CreateObject("CrystalRuntime.Application")
Rem
crxapp.LogOnServer "p2sodbc.dll", "AP_WORKSHEET", "<CRWDC>DBQ=D:\0ood1",
Set crxRep = crxapp.OpenReport
("D:\3g\run\Vision\apcyto\Reports\crBlockWS.rpt")
Set crxDB = crxRep.Database
Set crxTab = crxRep.Database.Tables(1)
apropConnBufStr = crxTab.ConnectBufferString
apropSubLoc = crxTab.SubLocation
crxDB.LogOnServer "p2sodbc.dll", "AP_WORKSHEET", "<CRWDC>DBQ=D:\0ood1",
Rem crxTab.SetTableLocation "D:\0ood1\BlockWS.txt", apropSubLoc, "DSN="
Rem Set crxConnPs = crxTab.ConnectionProperties
Rem Set crxConnP = crxConnPs.Item("DSN")
Rem crxConnP.Value = "AP_WORKSHEET"
Rem Set crxConnP = crxConnPs.Item("Database")
Rem crxConnP.Value = "D:\0ood1\BlockWS.txt"
Rem crxTab.Location = "BlockWS.txt"
crxRep.DiscardSavedData
crxRep.PrinterSetup (0)
crxRep.PrintOut
End Sub
For VB macros, the problem exists in all of CR 8.5, 9 and 10. However,
for another platform we are using, Unify Vision 4GL, it works for CR
8.5 while not working for CR 9 and 10.
Following is the source code in Unify Vision 4GL. This language may
not be popular, but I thin you are about to see how it calls the
Runtime Library methods LogOnServer(), OpenReport(), PrinterSetup() and
PrintOut().
%gfPrintCrystalReport
BOOL FUNCTION gfPrintCrystalReport($reportName)
BEGIN
if NOTMKNOWN(GF:$oSeagateId) then
create service of activex
class 'CrystalRuntime.Application'

Hi Sydney,
If you search the Developers help file you'll find info on using the method:
How to change the data source
This example demonstrates how to change the data source from native Access to an OLEDB (ADO) data source by using the ConnectionProperty Object, as well as how to change the table name by using the Location property of the DatabaseTable Object. CrystalReport1 is connected to the xtreme.mdb database found in the \Program Files\Crystal Decisions\Crystal Reports 10\Samples\En\Databases folder. The report is using the Customer table. A copy of the Customer table is added to the pubs database on Microsoft SQL Server.
' Create a new instance of the report.
Dim Report As New CrystalReport1
Private Sub Form_Load()
' Declare a ConnectionProperties collection.
Dim CPProperties As CRAXDRT.ConnectionProperties
' Declare a DatabaseTable object.
Dim DBTable As CRAXDRT.DatabaseTable
' Get the first table in the report.
Set DBTable = Report.Database.Tables(1)
' Get the collection of connection properties.
Set CPProperties = DBTable.ConnectionProperties
' Change the database DLL used by the report from
' native Access (crdb_dao.dll) to ADO/OLEDB (crdb_ado.dll).
DBTable.DllName = "crdb_ado.dll"
' The connection property bags contain the name and value
' pairs for the native Access DLL (crdb_dao.dll). So we need
' to clear them, and then add the name and value pairs that
' are required to connect to the OLEDB data source.
' Clear all the ConnectioProperty objects from the collection.
CPProperties.DeleteAll
' Add the name value pair for the provider.
CPProperties.Add "Provider", "SQLOLEDB"
' Add the name value pair for the data source (server).
CPProperties.Add "Data Source", "ServerA"
' Add the name value pair for the database.
CPProperties.Add "Initial Catalog", "pubs"
' Add the name value pair for the user name.
CPProperties.Add "User ID", "UserName"
' Add the name value pair for the password.
CPProperties.Add "Password", "password"
' Set the table name. ' for SQL types it would be "database.dbo.table"
DBTable.Location = "Customer"
Screen.MousePointer = vbHourglass
' Set the report source of the viewer and view the report.
CRViewer1.ReportSource = Report
CRViewer1.ViewReport
Screen.MousePointer = vbDefault

Data come from difference data source

In my saturation, my program's data are come from difference data source. For example, the program will retrieve PO balance, material consumption, future consumption and so on. In my program logic, i retrieve all of the material number, the retrieve the PO balance, material consumption... into internal table, then loop the internal table of material number and update this table from internal table of po balance, material consumption..., but i found that the program's running time is long. How to improve the performance or any suggestion for the program logic. Thanks.

Hi,
Few Guildlines:
1. program is slow mainly because Database load is too high, try to reduce it and that load can be shared by ABAP. gotrhough SE30-perfromance tuning.
Also, in Se30 u will get all most important Tips and tricks, follow it,...
2. Try to find out summary table and dont try always to get data from basic tables.
3. Try to use perfect SELECT statemetn with porper joins, which is most important in reduction of load on DB.
4. you can make ABAP part faster, following coding standard like use of Binary search.
5. Use SLIN to find out which part of program is taking too much time, try to reduce it.
Hope this will guide u.

Data Source path in Pivot Table changes to absolute on its own

Hello.
I have a .XLSX file, that was created long time ago (I don't even know in which Office version, but definitely not 2013), and maybe even was a .XLS file at first.
So it's a 4 MB file with 16 Sheets and 8 Pivot Tables.
All of the Pivot Tables use other sheets from the same file as Data Source.
Data Source for some of them look like this: 'Sheet3'!$A:$E
Everything is fine when I save the file, and open it from saved file.
But as soon as I try to move the file elsewhere, or rename it, or email it - all Data Source paths change to something like this: '\Users\Sergii_Litnevskyi\Desktop\New folder\[FileName.xlsx]Sheet3'!$A:$E
And it happens with all Pivot Tables. The problem is that it links to an old file path, where the file does not exist anymore. And it links to an external file, which is not what I want.
If I Save As and select different path and filename - then it works fine. So it's a workaround for renaming and moving files, but not for sending them to other persons.
I've read some threads, and people recommend disabling "Save external link values", but it does not help. It is already turned off in my office, but it keeps acting weird.
So what I need is: Save the file, close it, rename it, move it to other place, send it over email as attachment. And then I want to have the same Data Source path in my PivotTables as I had before I saved the file. How can I do it?
My Office version: Microsoft Excel 2013 (15.0.4454.1503) MSO (15.0.4517.1005) 32-bit

Hi,
According to your description, I suppose the issue may be caused by some reason.
Do you link the outside data source?
I think if the file moves the file elsewhere, or renames, or email,
data source paths can’t be change.
But, your data source paths add the absolute path.
Do you link the outside data source?
I recommend you zip the file and send it as Email attachment.
If the issue exists, you may save as it in a new name and test it in another computer.
Regards,
George Zhao
TechNet Community Support
I am pretty sure that I don't have any external links in the document.
However, even if I did - why would it change Data Source path for all of the Pivot Tables, when I did not request it?
I tried zipping it and sending to other person over email, but he got the file with changed data source paths.
I can even record a short video to show what happens.
Actually, I just did it. You can see the video here: http://screencast.com/t/qMBild3ck9b
It is rather big - 23.8 MB.
Let me explain what I showed there:
I opened my original file. I showed that there are Pivot Tables, whose Data Sources are in the same file, on various other sheets.
I showed this for all of the Pivot Tables in the document.
I saved the file using Save As in a different folder and under a different name (TEST.xlsx).
I then opened that saved file to show you that it is fine, and the Data Source path for one of the Pivot Tables is the same as it was in original file. It is the same for all of the other Pivot Tables.
Then I closed, and simply renamed the file to TEST123.xlsx.
Opened it, and first thing wrong - Security warning.
Then I got ‘Cannot open PivotTable source file ….’ messages. And, as I showed, now all Data Source paths have been changed to full paths of the file, that was created by Save As (TEST.xlsx) from original file.

Difference between 0FI_AP_30 and 0FI_AP_4 Data source

HI,
What is the difference between 0FI_AP_30 and 0FI_AP_4 Data source.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
In addition to above differences. Below is the functional difference between 0FI_AP_30 & 0FI_AP_4:
0FI_AP_4 gives you accounts payable line items in your report. Here GL account shows the balances of particular types of vendors/payables to which that particular GL account is been assigned.
And If subledger is activated in ECC, then by using 0FI_AP_30 you can get the break up of that particular GL balance according to vendors.
To make use of datasource 0FI_AP_30, subledger accounting must be activated in ECC.

Difference bw the data staging of generic and appli specefic data sources

Hi,
Can anyone tell the difference between data staging of generic and appl specific data sources. Like we know that LO data stage in queued delta, update queue and BW delta queue, i want to know actually where the generic data stages before it is loaded into BW.
Thanks.

Generic data sources are based on either a DB table/view, a function module or an ABAP query. So normally the data stages in the corresponding DB tables or you calculate it at extraction time. There is no update queue like in LO.
Best regards
Dirk
