Easiest Question - Should I use some BI Object?

This potentially is the easiest question here.
Before I spend tons of time and effort learning BI to see if I can do something, I thought I'd just throw out a query here.
I'm creating an Interactive Form that the user will fill out, when they are finished they will press a 'post' button that will create a simple xml or flat file of the information and send it to the necessary parties.  However, the business wants to 'report' on this information as well so they feel we need to put this data into COPA. Another collegue opted for an SIS structure or something like that. While both of these will work (the COPA option is the least desired) I thought, 'we don't have BI, but maybe I can post that data directly to a cube or something??'. 
Hence the query.
Should we just simply post to an SIS structure, low overhead, pretty easy...or should we somehow put it in BI, lots of overhead, lots of learning because we do not have it, but scalable and positions us for growth. 
See...just an opinion question. 
Thanks,
Greg

I hope this is the possible solution for your query.
1. Go to SICF and activate this web service: u201C/sap/bc/srt/rfc/sap/QUERY_VIEW_DATAu201D
2. Go to transaction WSCONFIG and enter service destination u201CQUERY_VIEW_DATAu201D and enter variant u201Cquery_view_datau201D and hit enter. Currently, there are no released services so create a new service.
3. Choose Save to release this web lservice.
4. Choose ICF Details -> External Aliases
5. Choose u201CNewu201D to create a new external alias.
6. Enter external alias u201C/sap/bw/xml/soap/queryviewu201D and enter description u201CSAP BI Web Service u2013 XML Result Setu201D
7. Specify your security and user ID on the u201CLogon datau201D tab.
8. Specify u201C/sap/bc/srt/rfc/sap/QUERY_VIEW_DATAu201D under the u201CTrg Elementu201D tab.
9. Save your external alias.
10. Go to transaction WSADMIN -> Goto -> Administration Settings. Ensure that the path to your J2EE is specified here and save this.
11. Find your web service and choose the u201CWeb service homepageu201D
12. Login to your ABAP system from the Web Service Navigator
13. Choose Test -> GetQueryViewData to test this service.
14. Enter and Infoprovider and Query and send the request to test this web service. Note: If the query has mandatory variables, those must be passed in the parameter. For thesake of this test, use a query without variables.
15. Ensure the request and response are successful.
16. If you have issues, make sure you activate your Web Service and Interface in SE80
17. Here is an example of how to pass parameters for filter values using WEB API commands. We are passing the FILTER_IOBJNM=0D_CHANNEL and FILTER_VALUE=3.
18. Here is an example of how to pass parameters for variable values using WEB API commands. In this case,we are using a selection option variable. We are passing the following parameters:
VAR_NAME_1=DISTGOP
VAR_OPERATOR_1=EQ
VAR_VALUE_LOW_EXT_1=3
VAR_VALUE_HIGH_EXT_1=5
Hope this would help you.

  • Newbie question: Should I use iDVD o iMovie?

    I use a Sony camcorder with the mini-DV tapes. I have about 20 old tapes I'd like to turn into DVDs. This is my first time using iDVD or iMovie.
    I'd like to keep things simple: Download the movies to my iMac, make a handful of chapter points and burn to DVD.
    Not interested in adding soundtracks, trimming the clips, etc etc. Just keep it simple.
    Each 1 hour tape typically has about 8-12 individual clips of a few minutes each (all video is my little kids). I want to be able to access each clip via an upfront menu selection (like a normal movie DVD).
    Should I use iDVD to do this or iMovie??
    If iDVD, what are some starter tips for me. Thanks!!

  • Should I use Embed or Object - quick question...

    Hi all,
    I've got a few .swf files on my site. One of them uses the following code:
    <object style="float:left;" id="intro" name="intro"
    type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
    data="<?php echo $siteurl; ?>/intro_movie/intro.swf" width="300"
    height="188">
    <param name="wmode" value="image" />
    <param name="movie" value="<?php echo $siteurl; ?>/intro_movie/intro.swf" />
    </object>
    Another one uses the following:
    <script type="text/javascript">
    var flashvars = {};
    var params = {};
    var attributes = {};
    swfobject.embedSWF("<?php echo $siteurl;  ?>/swf/testimonials.swf", "_testimonials", "405", "43", "9.0.0", "expressInstall.swf", flashvars, params, attributes);
    </script>
    <div id="_testimonials">
    <a href="http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer" title="Get flashplayer">
    <img src="http://www.adobe.com/images/shared/download_buttons/get_flash_player.gif" width="112" height="33" alt="Get Flashplayer" border="0" />
    </a>
    </div>
    On a computer recently the first example showed up fine but the second example didn't show up at all.
    I just wondered what the correct way to show .swf files is on a webpage.
    I'm very sorry if this is a stupid question but any help you could give me on this would be much appreciated.
    Many thanks
    John Thornley ;-)

    Thank you for your reply.
    I should clarify that both of those examples are working on my machine. However, on another machine only the top example showed up at the bottom example caused 404 errors as it was trying to load expressInstall.swf which wasn't in the directory.
    This confused me as I wondered if there was any detriment to just having all my swf on my site integrated using the top method?
    I didn't write the bottom example and I don't really understand it fully. I'm not sure whether my best move is to just convert everything to the top example or whether I should try and find a copy of "expressInstall.swf" and try and get the bottom example working on this other machine?
    Which is the correct way?
    Thanks again for your continued support
    Cheers
    John ;-)

  • USMT Migration Questions (Should I use two Config files?)

    I am currently running System Center Config Manager at my workplace. We have integrated MDT and are running a UDI on all of our PXE deployments.
    I have a ton of MDT Task Sequences that use the UDI and I have started looking into USMT.
    Currently we are backing up the data manually before we wish to do a re-install and moving this data back across after the installation is finished, though we wish to streamline this operation.
    We currently back up our data to a local share (\BACKUPNAS\USMT) and once done move the contents of the folder we create back to the desktop and separate our the other files like Docs back to Docs and so forth.
    I wish to have a similar setup with USMT. I need to backup the entire drive and then move the entire backup onto %SYSTEMDRIVE% once completed, during this time USMT can happily move docs to docs, videos to videos and so on.
    To do this should I split the USMT files into two? One for backing up and one for restoring?

    You don't have to split the XML files in two pieces to differentiate between capture and restore. Also, this should get you started:

    I want to change my apple id password but I forgot the security questions please help me some using my icloud I'd and if confirmation is must so please phone number is mine please send a code please help me my apple

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact AppleCare, upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
    The operator will take you through some steps you may have already tried, however they need to be sure they have exhausted all usual approaches before trying to reset your account, so you should try to be helpful and show patience with the procedure.
    The operator will need to verify they are speaking to the account holder and may ask you some questions that only the account holder could know, and you will need to answer them if the process is to proceed.
    Once the operator has verified your identity they will send a message through to your device which contains an alpha numeric code, which you will need to read back to them.
    Once this has been completed they will send an email to your iCloud email address after a period of 24 hours, so you should check that mail is enabled in your devices iCloud settings.
    Upon receipt of the email, use the reset link provided to reset your password, after which you should be able to make the adjustments to iCloud that you wish to do.

    Fix failing security tests on BlazeDS/trunk by using a remote object to invalidate the FlexSession at the end of each test method which should cause each test method to run with a new/clean session. It looks like some test methods were leaving some things in a bad state which was causing the next test that ran to fail. These may be legitimate bugs/issues so we should investigate further to see what sequence of events gets things into a bad state but for these tests we want all of the test methods to run in isolation.

    In general theory, one now has the Edit button for their posts, until someone/anyone Replies to it. I've had Edit available for weeks, as opposed to the old forum's ~ 30 mins.
    That, however, is in theory. I've posted, and immediately seen something that needed editing, only to find NO Replies, yet the Edit button is no longer available, only seconds later. Still, in that same thread, I'd have the Edit button from older posts, to which there had also been no Replies even after several days/weeks. Found one that had to be over a month old, and Edit was still there.
    Do not know the why/how of this behavior. At first, I thought that maybe there WAS a Reply, that "ate" my Edit button, but had not Refreshed on my screen. Refresh still showed no Replies, just no Edit either. In those cases, I just Reply and mention the [Edit].
    Also, it seems that the buttons get very scrambled at times, and Refresh does not always clear that up. I end up clicking where I "think" the right button should be and hope for the best. Seems that when the buttons do bunch up they can appear at random around the page, often three atop one another, and maybe one way the heck out in left-field.
    While I'm on a role, it would be nice to be able to switch between Flattened and Threaded Views on the fly. Each has a use, and having to go to Options and then come back down to the thread is a very slow process. Jive is probably incapable of this, but I can dream.

  • Can I insert pretest questions as knowledge checks between content slides and before a graded quiz without affecting the scoring of the graded quiz? Help documentation states that they should be used before a course begins.

    Can I insert pretest questions as knowledge checks between content slides and before a graded quiz without affecting the scoring of the graded quiz? Help documentation states that they should be used before a course begins.
    If I use both pretest questions and graded questions, can I also include remedial with return to quiz for both?

    Sorry, but I gave two workarounds: my preference is custom question slides, but you can also have questions slides where you do not add the score to the Total score. They will not be reported to the LMS and can act as Knowledge slides. Only some quizzing system variables can count all question slides, including the Knowledge slides, but the core variables (score, maximum score, percentage) will be correct. Here some links to my blog, that could help you:
    System variables in Captivate 8 - Captivate blog
    Intermediate Score Slides - Captivate blog
    That each SCORM module can have only one quiz is a SCORM requirement, not a a Captivate specific feature. Camtasia is bit difficult to compare, it is not a fully blown authoring tool although the best video screen capture tool around (video is non interactive by definition). I don't use Storyline, but cannot imagine that they shouldn't create SCORM-compliant files.

  • Question About what Azure Services I should be using for mobile app with website.

    Hello,
    I am wondering what Azure service would be best for my new application. I need to have an SQL database that I can connect to and modify from both a website and a mobile app preferably WP8 and Android. I was not really understanding whether I would need a
    mobile service or normal SQL database. Which should I use or am I completely off track?
    Thanks,
    Matthias

    Mobile Services uses SQL Database, nothing special on that SQL Database, its just like any other  "normal" SQL Database.
    Mobile Services provides "back-end services" that simplifies accessing SQL Database, Notification services, authentication, etc...
    Let's assume you don't use Mobile Services, to use SQL Database, you would need your app (both mobile and web) to connect to the database. In practice, you will not want to expose your SQL database directly, so you'd end-up writing some kind of a "facade"
    that your app will access instead of directly connecting to the database.
    Instead of writing that "facade", Mobile services provides that for you (you still have to write code though, but less than what you need to write if you're rolling your own).
    Both your web app and mobile apps can share the same SQL database (pay attention to the mobile service schema).
    To help you decide, ask yourself what other features will your mobile app require? Authentication? Notification? etc... are you prepared to write those on your own or use various libraries instead of one?

  • Which view object classes should be used by managed bean in ViewController?

    I just like to find out which java implementation classes created for a view object should be referenced in a managed bean on the UI side.
    For my view object InfoVO, I can create the following classes:
    View Object class: InfoVOImpl
    View Row class: InfoVORowImpl
    View Row Client Interface: InfoVORow
    View Row Client Class: InfoVORowClient
    Currently, I use InfoVOImpl and InfoVORowImpl in my managed bean so that I can use the getter methods conveniently to access the attributes with proper data types.
    I am not sure when I should use InfoVORow and InfoVORowClient instead of InfoVORowImpl.
    What are the context and reasons for using InfoVORow or InfoVORowClient instead of InfoVORowImpl?

    Hi,
    all of these are wrong. If you want to access a method exposed on a ViewObjectImpl class, the you expose the method as a clientMethod (or clientInterface) in the Java options for the View Object (or Application Module if the method is on AMImpl). You should avoid using implementation classes directly in the managed bean. If you need to access a View Object, use its interface ViewObject. If you need anything more specific than that, expose a method on the client interface after which you can access it through the binding layer.

  • Which object should i use ?

    Hi,
    I have a methode that returns several values of different types. Which objet should I use to return these values ? I thought of Vector but somebody told me that there is a better object than Vector.
    thanks for your help !
    Tex

    First, always use an interface over an object if it exists. So, your code should always declare the instance variable as List, not ArrayList or Vector or LinkedList. This allows the implementation to be optimized for the task at hand (e.g. LinkedList for arbitrary insertions or deletions of data, ArrayList for better Iterator performance, etc.) while using the interface for the common List methods (e.g., get(), add(), remove(), iterator(), etc.)
    Second, avoid Vector. Sun specifically states in the Collections tutorial that ArrayList is preferred over Vector.

  • Question about efficiency, should i use hashmap?

    Hi all
    i read a csv file and store each line's data into a class MyData.
    this class contains a variable of id - unique for object.
    i want to store all my MyData object in a collection for later use.
    if i want to access them in the fastest way, should i store my objects in a hashmap, and the key value would be their id?
    like -
    HashMap hashmap = new HashMap();
    MyClass mc1 = new MyClass(1); //id =1
    MyClass mc2 = new MyClass(4); //id =4
    //i add the objects
    hashmap.put(mc1.getID(),mc1);
    hashmap,put(mc2.getID(),mc2);
    //then when i want to get a certain object, where id is 4:
    MyClass mc = hashmap.get(4);should i use other collection? or is it fine that way?
    Thanks!

    don't worry about microoptimisations like selecting a collection class based on how fast it is unless and until you have written evidence that the class you had initially chosen was the sole reason for unacceptably poor performance (which will hardly ever matter, the only time I've ever encountered that was with an ancient web application making extensive use of Vector, where switching to ArrayList made it an order of magnitude faster).Hmmm... I do diagree with that statement, but then again I'm an old f@rt... I cut my teeth on the gory gizzards of all manor of data-structures, and I still believe that selection of the "correct" data structure(s) is a core implementation issue... especially where efficiency is (even occasionally) desirable.
    I haven't seen the same big gains when replacing Vector with ArrayList... in fact, I've only seen a very marginal (<10%) increase in "overall" throughput... I have seen a couple of orders of magnitude (or thereabouts) increase when I swapped a Vector<Integer> for an int[], but that was in the inner-loop of an inherently n^2 (I think) spatial algorithm.... and I also made it reuse the int[], instead of creating, growing and throwing away the vector every time through the outer loop. Malloc is expensive ;-)
    I'd be interested to hear more details about under the conditions under which ArrayList is 10 times faster than Vector, because I do a lot of work on a 1.3/1.4 era codebase, which is full of Vectors and HashTables... and I would like to be able to make a case for an en mass replacement (and generifying) of the "old school" datastructures... but alas, I see very little bang for our buck, so I just bite my toungue and continue using Vectors, even in new code, because so many existing "helpers" take a (explicitly) Vector parameter.
    I heard a "rumor" somewhere (probably a thread here) that there's talk of discontinueing support for non-generic collections in 1.7, because they (the API/VM developers) are having to (sort of) maintain two divergent versions of every collection related thing... and nothing annoys a developer more than that, right... so Please can anyone confirm or repudiate this "rumour".
    Cheers. Keith.
