Extract users essbase

Hello
I have the following problem.
I need to extract the usernames and passwords that are created in shared services (Essbase).
For Authenticate me in obiee 11g, with the same user.
Is there any way to extract users to authenticate created in essbase?
I have read about taking users from sources such as LDAP, weblogic, etc..
But if it is possible to extract native users created in shared services (essbase)?

Exporting the native users from Shared Services gives you the user id and other information including the password, however the password is encrypted.
for 11.1.2.x
1) Login to Shared Services console
2) expand the "Application Groups" node
3) expand the "Foundation" node
4) select "Shared Services"
5) in right pane expand "Native Directory"
6) right-click on "Users" and select "Export for Edit"
this will allow you to open or save in a .CSV file
as far as importing into OBIEE, I have no idea if that is possible.

  • R/3 Extraction User Exit: check bw system?

    Hi,
    we have connected two bw systems 'A' and 'B' to one sap r/3 system.
    We are using the r/3 extraction user exit (RSAP0001).
    The coding in the user exit will depend on the bw system.
    Is there any possibility to check in the coding using a parameter or variable which bw system is actually extracting data?
    Thanks for you help.

    Hello Marc,
    I tried the RFC callback method. Unfortunatel it does not work. I got an ABAP dump "CALL_FUNCTION_NO_SENDER":
    Program not started via RFC. No return possible.
    You attempted to execute an RFC call with the DESTINATION "BACK", but this destination is a reserved word and denotes and signifies a return to the calling program.                                       
    The current program was not called via RFC ('Remote Function Call').   
    It seems that the bw system starts a separate job on the sap r/3 system (sm37) for extracting the data and so no rfc information is available.
    Regards,
    Lothar

  • Extracting User Status for Sales Orders

    I am trying to extract user status transactional data for sales orders (at both the header and item level).  I have been following SAP note 300300 to configure the status extractors and map the BW objects to sales order status data sources (2LIS_11_VASTH & 2LIS_11_VASTI).  I think I have set up both R/3 and BW correctly according to note 300300 and the IMG documentation, but I am not getting any values in the info source for the new user status info objects, when I run the extract.
    Has anyone successfully done this?  If so, do you have any documentation or pointers on how I can get this to work?  Or, am I better off creating a generic extractor?  Thanks for your consideration.
    Sincerely, Hashi Chakravarty

    Hello Ravi,
    well yes, I can derive the status for that order in the update rules if i show the status as an attribute of the 0pm_order; but basically there will be only the last status shown.
    My problem:
    a. i report on day 1, the status of the order is REL
    b. on day 2 i load the master data for the orders, new status is TECO
    c. on day three i want to report in the past and see the status of day 1; that's not possible in this scenario because i'll see the current status (TECO).
    So that's why I want to have the statuses in the cube...
    The 2lis_17_i3hdr extractor is only sensitive to CRT and TECO statuses, but not to the others (like REL / BLC and so on... :_(( )
    I could read the statuses from the JEST and TJ02T tables...but still, if a document status is changed, no delta record is written in the queue...
    Thanks,
    Tudor

  • How to extract user master

    Hallo.
    We need to extract user master record from the systems ECC (ABAP) and Enterprise Portal (ABAP+Java).
    How could I do?
    SU01 ?
    Or are there some report aboout this?
    For Enterprise Portal : I see that from "User Administration"->"Identity management"  I can see maximun 1000 users.
    How to extract them ? From the export button?
    Furthermore, how to increase the limit of 1000 on the search?
    Thanks.
    Mario

    Yes, there is the limit of 1000 users.
    We have near 1200 users but the search limit to 1000 users.
    The solution to increase the search limit is here : /message/4657049#4657049 [original link is broken]
    Goto system admin --> system config --> UME config --> select User admin UI tab
    under search results and display tables, change the maximum number of search results and restart the server.
    Thanks.
    Mario

  • Extracting an Essbase Dimension in Outline Order

    Has anyone been successful extracting an Essbase dimension in outline order and loading the outline in the same order to another application? Our requirement is to extract an Essbase dimension in outline order so the results can be loaded using ODI to a Planning application. The desired result is the dimension order from the original Essbase outline be the same as the dimension order in the Planning application. Any support or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    John,
    We are using ODI 11.1.6. We successfully extracted the Essbase outline, but the order of the extract is incorrect. We've tried a few things including a Order by query, but are unable to get the outline in an order that will load to Planning and provide the same outline order as the original outline.
    Thanks for your reply,
    Kim

  • Cannot extract user statuses for Opportunity items

    Hi,
    Standard SAP Extractor does not extract User statuses for the Opportunity Items, Data Source name 0CRM_OPPT_I for 0CRM_C04 icube.
    According the OSS note We have to prepare our own enhancement of the extract structure to include the mapping of the user status group.
    We extended the related structure. There is no problem with this. We need a code sample for mapping of added field to extract structure.
    There is a BAdI for this purpose : CRM_CSDR_BWA_MFLOW
    I need to insert some ABAP code in this implementation.
    Does anybody can give some code sample for this.
    thanks,
    Yigit

    You can also configure the user status for Opportunity Item also. If you want to enhance the dataSource, here is the sample for BAdI:
    method if_ex_crm_bwa_mflow~enhance_data_source .
      data: it_extract type table of CRMT_BW_OPPT_I,
            wa_extract like line of it_extract.
      case i_datasource.
        when '0CRM_OPPT_I'.
          it_extract = ct_data[].
          refresh ct_data.
          loop at it_extract into wa_extract.
    Implement your logic here*****
    All the statuses stores in CRM_JEST table*****
            modify it_extract from wa_extract.
          endloop.
         ct_data[] = it_extract.
        when others.
      endcase.
    endmethod.

  • Errors extracting from Essbase to flat file

    New to ODI, I have the environment working - so I think
    Using ODI 11.1.1.6.0 Studio, no web services, just the studio.
    Essbase 9.3.3 is source
    Target is flat file on C:\ drive of PC
    PC is Windows 7, 32 bit
    running an interface to extract from Essbase outline (metadata) to a flat file (csv) the integration step (4) "Extract Metadata" fails. The first 3 steps are sucessful (drop work table, create work table, begin essbase metadata extract).
    The error messages in the 4th step are:

    I don't know what else to check or change.
    thanks

    I think I saw somewhere in your post that Staging different from target is NOT checked, probably why you are getting lots of 'loading to staging area errors'. Your staging area has to be able to support relational operations i.e a relational database such as SQL Server or Oracle or the SUNOPSIS Memory Engine. In your interface make sure you check the staging differnet from target and for example select the SUNOPSIS Memory Engine as your staging area. Resave the interfece and re-run.

  • Extract user list from NT 4.0 Domain

    Hi All,
    I am in the process of upgrading the NT4 domain to Active Directory.
    Can someone please provide a a way to generate a topology diagram for Windows NT infrastructure. 
    I know this is a very old technology, however i am now handicapped since none of the tools, like (hyena, AD Manager, DS Query, etc) are working. 
    Is there any method to run a topology diagramming similar to Active Directory Topology Diagramming in NT4.0 domain.
    Also i want a way to extract the active user list from NT Domain as well.
    OS version is windows NT 4.0 SP6
    Regards, Triyambak

    Hi Paul, Thank you for reverting it back. I think i do have one of the member server 2003 joined into the NT4 domain. I will surely give it a try. Does it need to be a DC, if yes, how can a DC be promoted in an NT4 environment.
    In my current scenario there are around 2000 servers joined into the NT domain  and I need to upgrade the NT to active directory. There are few things as per the design so far.
    >The members are all static IP addressing
    > there is no DNS in NT so they use a dns suffixes to a different domain (2008 functional level)
    > NT 4 is used only as authentication source.
    > Not sure if there are any NT Domain service accounts configured in the member servers.
    Complex isnt it..

  • How to extract User status for Sales and purchase contracts

    Hello,
    We need to load the User status linked to sales and purchase contract.
    I think that there is no datasource in BI content.
    What is the better solution ?
    - Enhance a standard datasource like 2LIS_11_VASTH with a status field (This solution is not ok for Purchase contract)
    - Create a spécific datasource to extract this status
    - Others
    Thanks for your help
    Best regards
    Christophe

    Hi,
    In your scenario its better to use generic extractor to get the reqd data. This data can than be stored in a DSO on the BI side.
    And you can look up for the user status using a routine .

  • Extraction of Essbase Metadata into a Text File

    When extracting metadata from Essbase into a txt file, the file lists the child members before the parents. We want it vice versa-just like it looks in Essbase. LKM Hyperion Essbase METADATA to SQL Is used for extraction.

    Unfortunately that is the way the API extracts the hierarchy.
    There are a couple of options extract the hierarchy with an incremental id, then order by the ID, this will need to be done in an rdbms staging area such as Oracle or SQL Server.
    If you are using Oracle you can always load to table and then using the connect by prior command to sort in the correct parent/child format, I am sure there is something equivalent in sql server.
    Cheers

  • Best Practices Data Extract from Essbase

    Hi there,
    I have been looking for information on Best Practices to extract data from Essbase (E).
    Using MDX I initially wanted to bulk extract data from E but apparently the process was never ending.
    As a 2d choice, I went for a simulation of an interactive interaction and got ODI generating MDX queries requesting smaller data sets.
    At the moment more than 2000 mdx queries are generated and sequentially sent to E. I takes some times ....
    Has anyone be using other approaches ?
    Awaiting reaction.

  • Extracting user group membership to a spreadsheet - tip?

    Hello,
    This is a tip that works for me.
    Sometimes I need to extract the Group Membership names for a user or users.
    What I do is have PTSpy running when I find their name from an administrative search. Clicking on the user name opens up the EDIT USER page where you can see the users groups.
    At this point look in PTSpy for the line:
    Create query: '/* QUERY_DYNAMIC_USERGROUPS:ANSI */ SELECT DISTINCT(a.ObjectID), a.Name, a.IsLocalized      FROM PTUSERGROUPS a, PTUSERLINKS b      WHERE a.ObjectID=b.GroupID           AND b.UserID=?           AND (b.ISSTATIC=? AND b.ISDYNAMIC=?) ORDER BY a.ObjectID DESC'
    followed by 3 lines:
    setInt, index: 0, value: 0001. <--user ID
    setInt, index: 0, value: 1. <--Static Group Membership
    setInt, index: 0, value: 0. <--Dynamic
    Copy and drop that into SQL Query Analyser, plug in the value provided and save it to a spreadsheet or just copy and paste it.
    If you want find dynamic groups - there is a similar query in the PTspy log - look for the /*QUERY_DYNAMIC_USERGROUPS:ANSI
    in PTSpy log
    If anyone has anything else to add - please do!
    Thanks,

    Hi,
    To identify members of a local group by using a command line, refer to:
    1. Open Command Prompt.
    2. To list members of a group, type: net localgroup "groupname"
    Note: You must include the quotation marks.
    For example, export the members of the local group Administrators to a text file named group.txt, refer to:
    net localgroup “Administrators” > C:\group.txt
    You can also write a script as you want.
    Best Regards,

    Thanks this does seem to work. It does seem that just copying the command does not work because of the quotes, and that you have to manually type the quotation marks into the command prompt, I'm thinking they are picked up as a different character when you
    copy paste from a html page or other document.
