DRM/MDM Import and Export File types - Question

Hi Guys,
We have been implementing Hyperion DRM to our existing Oracle Environment for managing the company's sales data which comes from multiple data sources. In my experience and research, I feel DRM is an excellent tool but there are some questions I have in our mind. The following are the few questions that I\we have.
a) How does the Import and Export of data functionality works in DRM? In this forum, I have found some one saying we can only import the data through flat files, in other words, "text file" with the delimiters [ ] seperated by comma. My question is, Is there any other possible way to import the data, Such as getting the data directly from the database tables? To get the data, Do we need to have any integration points or do we need to use SOAP APIs (& programming)?
b) While we exporting the data, can we export it directly to the Oracle database tables? What are the integration points needed for this kind of export?
c) Is there any sample guide or design document available for creating the hierarchy and nodes. I just want to know how the attributes that we have "is transformed" into the hierarchies and nodes in DRM? In the past, I used Essbase, which is integrated with DRM and that process was straight forward since we imported and exported data directly from DRM to Essbase.
I would appreciate any suggestion offered to me regarding the questions posted above.
Thanks in advance,
Leo

Hi,
1.As per my knowledge the Import can be done using Flat files only,we can import the data from Oracle Tables once the structure is ready in DRM.
2.We have an utility called Export to Table(in the last tab when you performing an Export along with Export to File), which requires the DB mapping to be done properly,
Thanks!

  • Illustrator CS3 Import and Export File Format list?

    Hello,
    Has anyone typed up an updated supported import and export file format list for CS3? I used to reference a support knowledgebase document, 1001741, (no longer on Adobe's site) that showed the majority of file formats and versions that Illustrator was able to import. I searched all over and couldn't find one, then called support and they confirmed they no longer had a list like that available--they had split the import options into separate lists--like what versions of Photoshop files, what versions of .eps files, .tiff files etc. Illustrator CS3 could open.
    The reason I was looking because I wanted to see what version Corel file CS3 could open after I was not able to open a customer's v.12 .cdr file.
    Thanks,
    Rick H.

    I am pretty sure that the last supported version of Corel that AI can open is version 10.

  • AVCHD in Premiere Pro CS 5 - exporting file type questions

    Firstly, this is my first post on here, so apologies if I'm breaking any kind of etiquette. Also, I'm not a very technical person and would appreciate any comments or advice to be in layman's terms!
    So, I film and edit weddings as part of a small company. I've recently had my camera and editing system upgraded to a Sony NXcam and Premiere Pro CS5 and I'm having a little trouble getting used to the new file types and settings (previously used miniDV tapes in SD with a Canon XL2 in an older version of Premiere).
    My pc handles the AVCHD footage fine but the way that I edit means that I'll want to export a sequence of edited clips as one long clip, and then re-import it. For example, I'm editing the wedding ceremony from footage from two cameras - I'm going to edit the full version of the ceremony and then I'm also going to edit it down into a version that is a highlights montage in slo-motion to music. The way I do this is once I'm happy with the full version of the ceremony I'll export it and then re-import it so it's one long clip I can play with rather than two sets of footage chopped up on a sequence. So I can alter the speed of this new long clip, and then chop it up and stick in some dissolves to put together the montage. Then I use this montage in the middle of my final film, between the preparations and the reception. The full, edited version of the ceremony is used as an extra on the DVD.
    Previously this was fairly straight forward. I was always working with footage in 16:9 and could export it as an avi file, then re-import that avi file with no problems - presto; the exact same-looking footage as I was previously working with.
    Now I'm editing with avchd mts footage (1920x1080 - 25p - square pixels?). Naturally, if I export it as a 16:9 avi and re-import it, the aspect ratio and frame size is all wrong for the project sequence.
    I just want to know what the best file format and settings are to use to export footage that will match up.  There is no option that I can see to export edited footage as mts files. There is a long list of file types, most of which I don't recognise or know anything about and have never needed to use in the past.
    Sorry if this is a silly question, I've tried searching for "working with AVCHD in premiere pro cs5" in google and not been able to find anything that can help me on there, so I thought I'd try a forum like this.
    Cheers

    I think we may have a slight miscommunication.  This is the way that I interpreted your original post.
    Lets say you shot the Smith/Jones wedding this past weekend.  You start a new project and have a Service Sequence and a Reception Sequence.  You finish editing both the service and reception and just a standard full length video.  Now you want to create a montage with clips from both the service and reception.  In this montage you will have different effects like Black and white, Slo Mo, blurs, etc.  So what you do is export the service and reception and then import those two files (or one long one) and then cut that apart and add your music and effects to make your montage.  Is that correct?
    The way that I do it works the exact same way except that you skip the export part.
    When I edit a wedding I generally have 4 sequences when I am finished.  I have a Pre Wedding montage, service, reception, and ending highlights.  The Pre Wedding montage is just made up of shots from before the service (bride and bridesmaids getting ready, shots of the venu, groom and groomsmen and so on).  Then I have a full edit of the service and a full edit of the reception.  After I am finished with those 3 sequences I start working on the ending highlight collage.  I make a new sequence for the collage then I go to my bin and drag the "Service Sequence" up into the preview monitor (I know in my previous post I said double click.  That does not work, because that just opens it up as a sequence.  Sorry about that).  In the preview monitor I scrub through the footage until I find a section that I want in the montage.  Then I set in and out points around that clip and drop it into my Montage timline, and what ever effects to it that I want, then move on to the next clip and do the same thing.  To me it seems that we have the same process except that you have to wait for the export (which is always going to give you a quality loss, how much of a loss depends on format and settings).
    Please let me know if I have misread your process.

  • Matching import and export files

    Is there a way to pair up imported files with the exported .Dat files and .err error files? We are running the batch process (using upsShell.exe executed via a scheduled batch script) to import CSV files and export them to Essbase, and have had several of the .Dat files fail. Nothing is recorded in the <username>.err log, the only indication of failures are the numerous .err files that accompany the .Dat export files in the Outbox.
    Since we have loaded numerous files against the same location (which is the prefix for the .Dat and .err files), we have numerous .err files which have very similar names. For example:
    LOCATION001.Err
    LOCATION002.Err
    LOCATION003.Err
    Etc...
    But there is no indication as to which of the imported data files these error files actually relate to! For example:
    A~LOCATION~WLCAT~PERIOD1~RA.csv
    B~LOCATION~WLCAT~PERIOD1~RA.csv
    C~LOCATION~WLCAT~PERIOD1~RA.csv
    Etc...
    Is there a way to identify which .Err file relates to which .CSV file?

    I wouldn't say that the .dat file is completely independent of the source file, since the .dat file essentially contains mapped data directly or indirectly from the source file, and wouldn't be generated without it.
    It is a shame that FDM does not generate some sort of useful batch processing log which details steps like this, for example:
    2012:08:02 13:41 Import: A~LOCATION~WLCAT~PERIOD1~RA.csv
    2012:08:02 13:42 Validate: Imported data
    2012:08:02 13:43 Export: LOCATION001.Err
    2012:08:02 13:43 Check: etc
    This way, one would clearly be able to match problematic .Dat files with the original source file, and then look at fixing the source file if this was the root of the problem. I cannot see at present how one is supposed to do this when faced with many load files and error files.
    Is there anything else I might have missed here?

  • Exporting file type question

    Made a video bio of my mom, used FCP 7, video rather long - about 25-30 minutes... what is the best format to export so that I maintain quality but file size not too big for DVD?

    In FCP, go to File->Export->QuickTime Movie. You can make the movie 'self-contained' or a 'reference movie.' You can include chapter markers (if needed) but do NOT 'recompress all frames.'
    Use the resulting file in Compressor, choosing the DVD preset appropriate for your program's duration. You'll end up with an MP@G-2 video file (.m2v) and a Dolby Digital audio file (.ac3).
    Import those two files into DVD-SP for authoring and burning.

  • Problem importing and exporting files in Vista with 5.0

    When I nsert my 1 GB card for an Adobe upload, it starts the process fine but about 1/2 way through it stops the upload and gives an error message "Cannot obtain all of the files from this device".
    I am able to go ack and select the files which weren't uploaded and the process works fine.
    I seem to be having the samee problem exporting to a removable disk. It only exportsd so many filkes and then it says it can't complete the process.
    This problem is new with my Vista computer and 5.0. I have all the latest updates loaded.

    Chuck,
    When was the last time you check for updates. There is one specifically for
    Vista. Having said that, this doesn't really sound like a Vista issue.
    You might want to post this in the technical issues forum.
    Cheers

  • Import and Export Option

    When we exit from the local Developer Studio, in the next attempt to start the Developer studio we are not able to import/export the DC, because the import and export file system options are not available in the popup window.
    To achieve it we are reinstalling the JDK as well as NWDS.
    What could be the reason and please send the suggestions to resolve this issue.

    Hi,
      Close the project when exiting from the studio. So next time, you open studio, open the DC and check if you get the options.

  • Looking for a program that can handel import and export of palm doc files

    I am looking for a program that can handel the import and export of palm doc Files that can convert them to to either txt or RTF files for Vista 32, running Palm Desktop 7.1.
    Could anyone give me a few suggestions of any plug-ins that would be good me?
    Hearns
    Post relates to: Palm IIIxe
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Ok, you need to clean uninstall Palm desktop 6.2. Install Palm desktop 4.1.4 and download and install documents to go version 6.
    Here are the clean uninstall instructioins for Vista.
    You should first make a copy of your data to have just in case something
    happens. You can find your data files by going to Start --> Documents -->
    Palm OS Desktop. Highlight your Palm Desktop username and right click and
    copy. Then go to your PC desktop right click on a blank spot and select paste.
    If this is the first time you are installing Palm desktop and encountering a problem, skip the previous step.
    Now you want to uninstall Palm Desktop and remove everything that has to do
    with Palm Desktop from your computer.
    Go to the following locations on the PC and delete the folders listed below.
    C:\Program Files\Palm or Palm One
    C:\Users\[Vista Login Name]\appdata\local\virtualstore\Program Files\Palm or
    PalmOne
    C:\Users\[Vista Login Name]\appdata
    *Note you may need to view hidden folders to get to appdata. To do that go
    into your control panel and open folder options. Go to view tab and uncheck
    hide hidden files.
    Once this is done you will need to delete some registry keys from your PC Operating System.
    Word of warning, going here and deleting the wrong thing can cause your PC
    from starting up, crashing and deletion of programs and data. If you feel
    you are unsure of yourself, see if you have a friend that can help you or a
    PC technician that you can pay to help you. This procedure will show them everything they need to delete. To make sure we have a good copy of the current registry, we need to do a backup of the Registry.
    Go to start on the PC, in the search field type "regedit.exe" without quotes.
    Highlight COMPUTER, go to File --> Export. Should pop up with a Save As box.
    Current location is fine, should be in My Documents or save to a location you will remember. In the file name on the bottom type "backup[todaysdate]" i.e. backup07072008. Next, the hard part.
    The easiest way to make sure your working with the correct key, highlight the key i.e. palm quick install, and press delete on your keyboard. It will ask you, are you sure. Say yes. Do the same thing for all keys below.
    If you make a mistake, stop what you are doing. And call a PC technician.
    BUT do not turn off your computer.
    The reg keys are as follows (Note: some of theses reg keys will not be here
    but if they are delete them)
    * HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\U.S. Robotics\Palm Quick Install
    * HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\U.S. Robotics\PalmOne File Transfer
    * HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\U.S. Robotics\Pilot Desktop
    * HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Palm
    * HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Palm, Inc.
    * HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\PalmDesktopAutorun
    * HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\palmOne
    * HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\PalmSource
    * HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\PalmSource or anything else that says palm
    Next reboot your computer.
    Then reinstall your palm desktop from the CD and do a hotsync. Use the username that is on the handheld.

    Pages for iPad does not support export/import of Endnote references in the form of formatted bibliography.

    Yes, indeed, feedback directly to Apple is possible

    While Pages does not currently import/export and preserve the Endnote formatted bibliography, another app known as Documents to go does; there is not citation software for adding references though, but preservation is good.

  • Import and export MDM with the SAP Portal

    Hi,
    Would you have any clue on how to handle import and export from the SAP portal ?
    I need your help because I haven't found any standard iView to perform these functions
    The only information i got were some explanations on WebDynpro Java iViews using events to export from the Portal.
    Thank you in advance

    Hi,
    MDM iViews are only meant to perform MDM Data Manager operations but on limited basis. EP-MDM scenario has been designed for end users only which should not allow to perform complex data manager operations and they need not install MDM Clients.
    Thats why importing and exporting functionalities are not possible in standard MDM iviews.
