Extract data using javascript

Hi,
I have created a BW reportin BeX WAD. At viewtime (in internet explorer), I'm extracting some data from a table in the report with some custom javascript (I'm using HTML DOM).
Is there any way to directly query the data provider of the table (in javascript) to get the needed data? Because using DOM is not that elegant and not that easy to generalize (the number of rows varies depending on the number of characteristic values etc).
Thanks,
Jeroen

Hi,
If you are profficient with ASP and Multi Dimensional Expressions you will be able to accomplish your goal. See:
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/3ff37884-0401-0010-3c96-ab0e2f383c5a
If you stick to Javascript then AJAX can be your solution (although a not trivial one...) See Raja's blog:

Good Luck,

How to compare dates using javascript?

Hi,
I have to compare dates using javascript. The dates are in format "mm/dd/yy" for eg "10/09/06".
I have written a script to compare the dates but the problem I 'm facing is with the year.
For example if I compare "10/09/06" with "10/04/98", then "10/04/98" is coming out to be greater than "10/09/06" because it is considering year "98" to be greater than "06".
Please advice/suggest.
Thanks in advance...

Dude, you're here in a Java forum, not in a Javascript forum. Those are two entirely different languages.
The answer in Java is to use java.text.SimpleDateFormat to convert String to Date and use java.util.Date and/or java.util.Calendar to compare dates.

Error while extracting data using function module

Hello,
I created one generic datasource and i want to extract data with the option "Extraction by Function Module".
But when i specified function module name and was trying to save, it thrown a error message saying
'The specified table does not exist'.
What could be the reason?
Please help me out.
Thanks,
Regards,
Steve

Hi Steve,
Once you execute T.Code RSO2, you need to fill in the details and click Create, specify the Appl. Component and in Extraction by Function Module, give Function Module name and Extrct Structure in the given boxes.
"This structure is used by a DataSource that was created using the transaction RSO2 (generic extraction) and selects data using a function module.
The data must be transferred from this function module to an interface table E_T_DATA."
I'll try to comeup with small piece of code to sort your issue.
Hope it helps!!!!

Change of sign while extracting data using Open hub

Hello All,
We are extracting data from Info cube to a file in the application server using Open hub.
While extracting data, if there is any negative value for the key figure, negative sign is appending on the right side of the value(Eg: "123.67-"), which is the standard behaviour but I want the sign to be on the left side of the value (Eg: "-123.67") while extracting to the file at application server.
Could any one please let me know if there is any setting to do this change ?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
Changing the SIGN position from one side of the NUMBER to the other side can happen in following ways.
1) After the file is place in the application server. Deploy a OS SCRIPT file (for .csv) for obtaining the required changes to the required COLUMN [Basis team will have more idea on this]
2)This is time consuming idea. well deploy a routine at the Open hub -Infospoke level.

POST Data Using Javascript

Hi Guys,
I ran into this trouble, basically, what I need is to post data into this url using REST:
www.thissite.com/comment
now it says:
do this with a variable name content, containing "key: value" line by line:
id:
Action: comment
Text: the text comment
now it has a sample on how to do this using java:
import java.io.IOException;
import org.apache.commons.httpclient.HttpClient;
import org.apache.commons.httpclient.methods.PostMethod;
import org.apache.commons.httpclient.methods.multipart.MultipartRequestEntity;
import org.apache.commons.httpclient.methods.multipart.Part;
import org.apache.commons.httpclient.methods.multipart.StringPart;
public class RtTicketCreator {
static final String BASE_URI = "http://www.thissite.com/REST/1.0";
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
PostMethod mPost = new PostMethod(BASE_URI + "/1234/comment/");
Part[] parts = { new StringPart("content", "id: 1234\nAction: comment") };
mPost.setRequestEntity(new MultipartRequestEntity(parts, mPost.getParams()));
HttpClient cl = new HttpClient();
cl.executeMethod(mPost);
System.out.println(mPost.getResponseBodyAsString());
Now, my question is: Can I do this using javascript? If yes, could you at least give me an idea how to accomplish this?
Thanks Guys,
Best Regards,
Aaron

Reading form data using javascript

Hello.
I want to go over the data received from the context to the PDF file using JavaScript, without binding it to any elements on the form.
How can I access the data?
I've tried using xfa.data or xfa.dataset, but didn't manage to get to it.
How can it be done?
Thanks.

The following applies if it's a PDF generated from ABAP :
Let's say a simple type parameter from context is named EBELN. To get it from javascript, you must use :
$data.data.EBELN.value
or
$record.EBELN.value
(it's the same)
For example, to display the value, use:
xfa.host.messageBox( $data.data.EBELN.value );
Edited by: Sandra Rossi on Jan 28, 2009 7:34 PM : added $record line

Code Page Setting while extracting data using Generic Data Source

Hi,
Can anybody tell me about the Code Page setting used in Generic Data Source in SAP BW 3.5?
I am extracting data from a Master Table using Generic data Source, but the data which is in Ukrane language is getting loaded as "#". Where do we set the Code Page for it?
Regards,
YK.

To continue with earlier question, is there any particular setting for a master data, to load non english data as a text of master data?
I want to load TEXT of a master in Ukraine language. I am extracting this text from the P table of same master (From Description Field). But TEXT is not getting populated whenever it is Ukraine language. English TEXT is populated correctly.
Please share your experiences...
Thanks,
YK.

Any body has faced this error or something like it?
Thanks for help!
Salah

Thanks every body for reply,

Issue while extracting data using Gen DS of Type Infoset Query

Hi All,
We have a Generic Data source created using the Infoset query. I get some data discrepency when i am extracting the data with the same DS. The data for the Field Amount in the R3 and the PSA is different. When i try to check the same using the RSA3 T-Code i am unable to execute the Gen DS in R3 production where as its working fine in R3 Dev, and i am able to execute the other DS in the R3 production using the RSA3 T-code.
My concerns ::--
1. if the DS is working fine in R3 Dev in RSA3 the y i am facing the problem in Production.
2. Y i am getting the different data in R3 and PSA since PSA shuld be the replicate of R3?
3. How can i resolve this problem.??
Thanks in Advance
Regards

Thanks venkat,
I am having the authorization to execute the query in R3 production, As i am able to execute the other DS in RSA3 . But not able to execute this DS i had also checked it is active n working fine when loading the Data.
There is only one routine ie to transfer rule from lower to upper of a char value.
As der r routines in Update Rule but i have to get the same data in PSA which is der in R3.
The Routine of Update Rules will be executed when loading the data to the Targets right so the data may b vary in Data targets but y i am getting different data in PSA .
Pls thru some light.

How to extract data using DSources which do not support Delta

Hi forum,
Iam using a data source which does not support delta. In such a scenario what should i do For subsequent extractions.Will i have to opt for full load every time, if so then how will the double data records be treated. Pls help me out of this situation. In RSA6 if i click on the data source there i can find a check box for enabling delta , but again that is greyed out. If i want to change that what steps should i follow.
All the helpfull answers and solutions would be thanked by assigning full points.
Regards
Pallavi

Can you give me the data source name please.
If it is a standard Business Content Datasource and it does not support delta(or delta is not enabled) then you dont have any choice to modify the standard Datasources. In such cases you can create a Generic DS same as Standard DS and enable delta.
Hope this helps.

Error when extracting data using DB Connect from an Oracle database

Hi All,
We are on BI 3.5 and loading data from a non-SAP (Oracle 10g) database using DB Connect.
I received the following error messages when trying to perform "Check DataSource" using the DB Connect setup in RSA1.
Event with errors RSDL_META_UPLOAD in DataSource
Message no. R8287
Warning Messages;
Message no. RSDL053
Field name ReceiptID contains non-alpha-numeric characters
Field name ActivityDate contains non-alpha-numeric characters
Field name ReceiptDate contains non-alpha-numeric characters
Field name ReceiptLineNumber must have between 000001 and 000016 digits
etc...
Views are created under the owner's user name. I have checked with DB personnel and they confirm that all the authorization and security access privileges have been correctly granted to the views.
We are also able to extract the data by running a sql query statement from the views using SQL Plus
Currently we also have a similar extraction process set up with an Oracle 9 database, which extracts the information without any issues.
Thanks,
Anthony

Hi Mr Loh.
I know that this thread has over a year ago but i was looking for something similar for over 2 weeks ago and i ialways found this thread...I want to share my experience even that maybe you already found the same solution or something similar (i saw that you check your own post as answered):
I made a similar connection from BI 7 SP 18, but in my case was to a Microsoft SQL database 2005. When i "check the datasource" i receive like almost 150 warnings and 1 error and all the warnings and errors are the same ones as you describe above. What i did is create a custom view in the MSSQL database and convert all the column names to uppercase and the column names i limited to 16 characters at most. after doing that all the warnings and the error described disappear and i can view the database content when you made click in the "view content table" button.
I hope that this will help somebody and best regards

Problem to extract data using DS 2LIS_11_VAHDR & 2LIS_11_VAITM

Hello Experts,
my requirement is to extract the SD sales Item & sales header data int BI. while executing the Reports in BI I find some incosistencies in data
Ex: for for some Sales organizations
      0CRM_NUMDOC = 17 and the corresponding   0NETVALORD = 0,00
and for some sales organization
     0CRM_NUMDOC = 0 and the corresponding   0NETVALORD = 5200,00
we are using the data sopurce 2LIS_11_VAHDR to load Document header data and the data sopurce 2LIS_11_VAITM to get Item Net value data. and used two trtansformations to the same SAP standard cubes 0CSAL_C05 & 0CSAL_C03.
asper my analysis in development system I find
       VBAK contains 1405 records but the DS 2LIS_11_VAHDR extracts only 1235 records.
but
       VBAP conains   2665 records and the DS 2LIS_11_VAITM extracts all 2665 records.
is it creats the problem?
I deleted the setuptables and again fill them even thought I have the same problem ?
If you have any idea regarding this issue please share with me.
Thanks in advance.
cheers.............

HI,
Check indeed the extraction in your source system with RSA3.
Also perform the load and check your data in PSA (before any transformation takes place).
Are you going to use delta or full loading? I assume it's delta? So if you perform your initial load with data, no use of the setup table is required...
If you have too much data to do this, try an initial load without data, first delta load and next a full repair load (which will read your setup table). Do not forget to fill your setup table with all the historical data you need in transaction SBIW.
Hope this helps.

Michel Hoefkens
