Fetching data from one BI server to another

Hi All,
We have BCS environment on top of BI. We have a request from Client to refresh the BCS data in our quality box (copy of BCS production data). Data wasn't refreshed to our Quality system regularly from SAP Quality and hence we thought of complete BI Production copy to our Quality box.
Since the above strategy is time consuming,we have been contemplating on other options and have stumbled upon SAP blog http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/weblogs?blog=/pub/wlg/21489. [original link is broken] [original link is broken] [original link is broken]
The blog talks about pulling data from one BI server to another. As BCS is such a fragile environment, wanted to take an opinion on whether you all see any concerns with the approach.

Vivek Das Gupta

Hi,
W have done the system copy from production to QA system and only faced authorization issues and also we follwed the same blog and as mentioned in the blog dont forget below points before going ahead for the system copy.
switch the source Real Time Infocube (in MBP) if you want to copy all latest productive data, that is to say including those which were contained in the open request.
For data consistency reasons and to avoid any risk of error, the loading process is executed in Full.
If you planning to copy only a part of the source data records, set filters in the infopackages.
Hope it going help you
Thanks

How to move phones from one CUCM server to another?

How easy is it to migrate IP phones from one CUCM server to another?
The situation is this:
A vessel currently sitting in dry dock has 14 IP phones onboard which currently register with a CUCM server half way round the world (literally). As you can imagine there is quite a fair amount of delay for the signal processing, not to mention the connectivity being over a VSAT link. This being a temporary solution.
A CUCM server has been configured and installed on the vessel with all the relevant partitions, route patterns, trunks etc. The phones have also been added to the new server ready for migration. The only real thing that will be different when the phones are migrated is the Directory Number on each phone. Both CUCM servers are running software version 7.1.3
The phones currently pick up their local IP addresses via a local DHCP server which assigns 150 TFTP Server IP Address for the remote CUCM server. Is changing the the TFTP Server IP address to the local CUCM server enough to have the phones register with the local server.
This is not something I've tried before so would appreciate feedback or any comments that may indicate anything I missed along the way.
Thanks,
Ric

Hi Ricardo,
On the DHCP scope created for the voice vlan change the Option 150(TFTP Server IP address) to the new CUCM and remove/delete the remote CUCM IP address just to ensure that phones once after registering to the new CUCM will not fetch any config from the remote CUCM as the DN's of the phones are changed on the new CUCM please ensure this.
Apart from this i dont see any challenges as the firmware of the IP Phones will also remain same as CUCM version is same.
Hope that helps.

How to copy a Module Pool Program from one SAP server to another SAP server

Hi Experts,
My requirement is to copy some Module pool programs from one SAP server to another SAP server which do not have any link.
Please advise on this.
Regards
Dipak

put all relevant objects inside a transport request and release it. this will generate two files, a control file in /usr/sap/trans/cofiles/ and a data file in /usr/sap/trans/data/
you can take these two files, zip'em up and e.g. email them to your destination. There they have to be put into the same directories of that other server and can then be added to the import queue and finally imported.
These last steps would usually be done by an administrator.
Both systems should be on the same release, as far as I know.

How to pass data from one internal session to another

Memory Structures of an ABAP Program
In the Overview of the R/3 Basis System you have seen that each user can open up to six R/3 windows in a single SAPgui session. Each of these windows corresponds to a session on the application server with its own area of shared memory.
The first application program that you start in a session opens an internal session within the main session. The internal session has a memory area that contains the ABAP program and its associated data. When the program calls external routines (methods, subroutines or function modules) their main program and working data are also loaded into the memory area of the internal session.
Only one internal session is ever active. If the active application program calls a further application program, the system opens another internal session. Here, there are two possible cases: If the second program does not return control to the calling program when it has finished running, the called program replaces the calling program in the internal session. The contents of the memory of the calling program are deleted. If the second program does return control to the calling program when it has finished running, the session of the called program is not deleted. Instead, it becomes inactive, and its memory contents are placed on a stack.
The memory area of each session contains an area called ABAP memory. ABAP memory is available to all internal sessions. ABAP programs can use the EXPORT and IMPORT statements to access it. Data within this area remains intact during a whole sequence of program calls. To pass data to a program which you are calling, the data needs to be placed in ABAP memory before the call is made. The internal session of the called program then replaces that of the calling program. The program called can then read from the ABAP memory. If control is then returned to the program which made the initial call, the same process operates in reverse.
All ABAP programs can also access the SAP memory. This is a memory area to which all sessions within a SAPgui have access. You can use SAP memory either to pass data from one program to another within a session, or to pass data from one session to another. Application programs that use SAP memory must do so using SPA/GPA parameters (also known as SET/GET parameters). These parameters are often used to preassign values to input fields. You can set them individually for users, or globally according to the flow of an application program. SAP memory is the only connection between the different sessions within a SAPgui.
The following diagram shows how an application program accesses the different areas within shared memory:
In the diagram, an ABAP program is active in the second internal session of the first main session. It can access the memory of its own internal session, ABAP memory and SAP memory. The program in the first internal session has called the program which is currently active, and its own data is currently inactive on the stack. If the program currently active calls another program but will itself carry on once that program has finished running, the new program will be activated in a third internal session.
Data Clusters in ABAP Memory
You can store data clusters in ABAP memory. ABAP memory is a memory area within the internal session (roll area) of an ABAP program and any other program called from it using CALL TRANSACTION or SUBMIT.
ABAP memory is independent of the ABAP program or program module from which it was generated. In other words, an object saved in ABAP memory can be read from any other ABAP program in the same call chain. ABAP memory is not the same as the cross-transaction global SAP memory. For further information, refer to Passing Data Between Programs.
This allows you to pass data from one module to another over several levels of the program hierarchy. For example, you can pass data
From an executable program (report) to another executable program called using SUBMIT.
From a transaction to an executable program (report).
Between dialog modules.
From a program to a function module.
and so on.
The contents of the memory are released when you leave the transaction.
To save data objects in ABAP memory, use the statement EXPORT TO MEMORY.
Saving Data Objects in Memory
To read data objects from memory, use the statement IMPORT FROM MEMORY.
Reading Data Objects from Memory
To delete data clusters from memory, use the statement FREE MEMORY.
Deleting Data Clusters from Memory

How do i transfer data from one internal tabe to another.

Hi All,
         How do i transfer data from one internal tabe to another.
         Can i do it ebven if he tables are different in structure.
Please Advice.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Saket Tiwari,
I hope the earlier post by kashyap is good enough an answer. anywas in addition to it let me give a detailed
explanation of how you can populate an internal table.
1) Append data line by line.
     Syntax : APPEND [<wa> TO / INITIAL LINE TO] <itab>.
this appends new line to internal table <itab>.
2) Using COLLECT statement.
             COLLECT is another form of statement used for populating the internal tables. Generally COLLECT is used while inserting lines into an internal table with unique standard key. The syntax for COLLECT statement is as shown
     Syntax : COLLECT [<wa> INTO] <itab>.
3) Using INSERT statement
     Syntax INSERT [<wa> INTO / INITIAL LINE INTO] <itab> [index <idx>].
INSERT statement adds a line/work area to the internal table. You can specify the position at which the new line is to be added by using the INDEX clause with the INSERT statement.
Now coming to your request..
To append part or all of an internal table
     Syntax
              APPEND LINES OF <itab1> [FROM <n1>] [TO <n2>] TO <itab2>.
*     Note:
Without the FROM and TO options, this statement appends the entire table <itab1> to <itab2>.*
b) To insert part or all of an internal table into another internal table
     Syntax
          INSERT LINES OF <itab1> [FROM <n1>] [TO <n2>]
          INTO <itab2> [INDEX <idx>].
c) Using Move statement.
To copy entire contents of one table into another in one execution
     Syntax MOVE <itab1> To <itab2>.
               OR
          <itab1> = <itab2>.
but u hav to be careful because he contents of itab2 will eb overwritten on the execution of this statement.
These copy the contents of ITAB1 to ITAB2. Incase of internal tables with header line we have to use [] inorder to distinguish from work area. So, to copy contents of internal tables with header line the syntax becomes,
ITAB1[] = ITAB2[].
Coming to the letter part of your question, Yes, we can copy values between tables having different structures.
for this we use
                            MOVE-CORRESPONDING <itab1> TO <itab2>
    this executes the statement for their header lines. Searches for the sub-fields which occur both in itab1 and itab2 and then generates, for all relevant field pairs which correspond to the
        sub-fields ni , statements of the form MOVE itab1-ni TO itab2-ni. The other fields remain unchanged.
I hope the information provided has been of your help.
Reward if useful.

Jose

How do I transfer data from one exterior harddrive to another?

How do I transfer data from one exterior harddrive to another when they are both connected to our Imac Desktop?

Depends what you want to transfer...
A few more Details about what you are trying to achieve would be good.

I can not transfer date from one hard drive to another, I keep getting an error because I have two of the same file names and one file name is in caps and I cant change the file name

can not transfer date from one hard drive to another, I keep getting an error because I have two of the same file names and one file name is in caps and I cant change the file name. My original external has an error and needs to be reformatted but I dont want to lose this informations its my entire Itunes library.

Sounds like the source drive is formatted as case sensitive and the destination drive is not. The preferred format for OS X is case insensitive unless there is a compelling reason to go case sensitive.
Why can't you change the filename? Is it because the source drive is having problems? If so is this happening with only one or two or a few files? If so the best thing would be to copy those over individually and then rename them on the destination drive.
If it is more then you can do manually and you can't change the name on the source you will have to reformat the destination as case sensitive.
Btw this group is for discussion of the Support Communities itself, you;d do better posting to Lion group. I'll see if a host will move it.

Passing data from one bsp application to another

Hi,
I have few queries that most of you would have done in ur projects:
1. I want to pass data from one bsp application to another:
eg based upon selected row of table view which populates material no and descriprion to another application which open the entire material master data.
Now, i have both the pages in diff bsp applications in place but unable to pass the selected material code to the second bsp application.
Had it been two different pages of same application I was able to achieve it with set parameter()
2. To stop the application from reprcessing the data:
eg: Suppose I have a bsp page where user fill details of a customer and on submitinng the details a customer is created in background and the entire page is disabled by my code. Even now if the user press refresh (F5) button then another customer gets created in the background. So basically i want to avoid the reprocess of the onSubmit event
Few lines of sample code would be very helpful.

How to put the data from one excel sheet in another excel sheet

hi ,
I want put the data from one excel sheet in another excel sheet in seq. order Eg: I have one excel sheet in which i have 3 col. Name , Sno. , Email along with data .I want to put data from this sheet to another excel sheet in the following orders of col. Sno,Name, Email .
While loading data in another sheet , i have to perform validation like char field should n't contain numeric values and vice versa .
Let me know on this soon ..
regards
Prashant

Well, you can issue separate queries with the ordering you need from each tab in the spreadhseet. You can open an ODBC connection from a VBA macro, select a sheet, run a query, select another sheet and run another query. As for the validation, you can do this in Oracle via stored procedures or again in VBA code.

Using FDM to transfer data from one HFM app to another

We are facing a project in which we need to load data from one HFM app to another. There're some mapping going so it was advised that FDM be used.
However, the HFM extract files contain all data on the rows. While for the FDM multiload, the data from different periods need to be layed out on the columns. Also, we have multiple scenarios/years of data to handle. What would be the best approach? Has anyone had similar experience to load data from one HFM app to another using FDM? Thanks!

It appears that this is some kind of migration project due to the scope of the data contained in the single file? If so whatever you do is like ly to be trow away once the migration of data is completed.
You have a couple of options:
1) Get the data extracted from HFM in multiple files instead of one bulk file, broken down by scanario,year & period
2) Take the single data dump file produced by FDM and manipulate it yourself to get the data in a more usuable format for processing through FDM.
Option 2 could be achieved via any ETL tool or a custom file parsing script. What may be more attractive to you and allow you to fully leverage your investment in FDM is that you could use the PULL adapter that ships as part of the FDM adapter suite to perform this transformation exercise. The PULL adapter takes a flat file input and allows you to use all the in built functionality of FDM to transform it and output a modified flat file (or series of flat files). You could use it to produce multioload files or a series of files broken down by scenario,year,period.
Whatever you do I would suggest that break the single data file down into smaller chunks as this will help with the iterative debugging process you will inevitably have to undetake whislt migrating the data to the new application.

Concerning midi data in GarageBand for iOS: can we copy midi data from one virtual instrument to another?

Concerning midi data in GarageBand for iOS: can we copy midi data from one virtual instrument to another?
For instance: I play my "lucky take" on the virtual piano, and now I am curious how it would sound on let's say a organ. Normally I would select the midi content out of the piano track and copy it into the organ track. I cannot figure out how to do this in GarageBand for iOS. Is there anyone out there with a solution?
Thanks!

It is limited, how you can move regions between tracks. Basically, you can move between tracks with the same touch instrument. See the help: http://help.apple.com/garageband/ipad/2.0/index.html#chsec12c15d
Move a region
Drag the region left or right to move it forward or back in time. Align the left edge of the region with the bar or beat on the ruler where you want it to start playing.
Drag the region up or down to move it to another track with the same Touch Instrument. You can also drag regions between Keyboard and Sampler tracks, and between Audio Recorder and Guitar Amp tracks. Smart Drums regions cannot be dragged to another Smart Drums track.
If you move a region so that it overlaps another region, the overlapped part of the “covered” region is deleted.
Paste a region
You can paste a region you have copied, or paste an audio file from an app that supports copying audio to the clipboard. GarageBand supports 44.1 kHz sample rate, 16-bit depth uncompressed audio files.
You can paste copied regions to another track with the same Touch Instrument. You can also paste regions between Keyboard and Sampler tracks, and between Audio Recorder and Guitar Amp tracks. Smart Drums regions cannot be pasted to another Smart Drums track. Audio files copied from another app can be pasted to Audio Recorder or Guitar Amp tracks.
Move the playhead to the point where you want the region to start.
Tap the header of the track where you want to paste the region to select the track.
Tap the track where you want to paste the region, then tap Paste.You can also tap an empty area of Tracks view, then tap Paste. In this case the region is pasted into the currently selected track.

Migrate PY and TM cluster data from One SAP System to another

Hi Experts,
Could you please suggest me some options to migrate PY and TM cluster data from One SAP System to another? My requirement is to move all the cluster data (Active and Inactive ees).
I see that PU12 is an option. Anybody used that to migrate between SAP systems. Please provide some details
Points guaranteed
I see that using PU12 you can export only PCL2 Clutsers. Are there any ways to move the other clusters like PCL4 ?

Hi,
As far as data transfer, If have all normal configuration settings in your targeted system you can use LSMW (Use T.code AS91 in LSMW for recording) to transfer your data in your both cases.
Hope it resolves your both the issues.

Transaction data from one cost center to another cost center

Hi All
Can any one tel me how to move the Transaction data from one cost center to another cost center .
My scenario is basically : Users posted for company code 1003 for Cost center S00570 for the period 01.04.2007 to 30.11.2007 but it has to go to company code 1000 instead of 1003 for the same Cost center .S00570 .
What we have done is that we have changed the cost center from 01.12.2007 on words to the correct company code 1000 and now all postings are going to the right company code ie
to company code 1000.
Now the problem is how to bring back the old historical data posted from 01.04.2007 to 30.11.2007 to wrong company code the 1003 to correct company code 1000 .
Is there a way to bring back the historical data which has posted to wrong company code .
Thanks in Advance .
Any help highly appreciated and points are assigned .
Cheers
Ravindra.

Ravindra
Once you have changed the company code in the master data, then the entries with respect to the different company code cannot be transferred. Please follow the process below and let me know if it works.
1. Revert the cost center master data to the original company code.
2. Repost the line items from this cost center to another cost center. Use tcode KB61. The cost center you will be reposting will be a routing cost center (say XXXXX).
3. Once all the line items have been reposted, change the master data of the cost center to the correct company code.
4. Again repost the costs from the routing cost center(XXXXX) to the correct cost center. You should have all the line items to the correct cost center now.
For more on reposting refer the link below:
http://help.sap.com/SAPHELP_470/Helpdata/EN/27/c98a46db7011d1a5400060086e9494/frameset.htm

How to pass data from one internal session to another internal session

hi all sap experts ,
How to pass data from one internal session to another internal session and from oneExternal session to another external session.
Except : Import and Export parameters and SPA/GPA parameters.
Tell me the otherWay to pass data ..
Plz
Thanks in advance

hi,
abap memory management u will understand about this concept.
the import /export parameter will help u that passing data between two internal sessions by using abap memory.

Passing Data Between Programs
There are two ways of passing data to a called program:
Passing Data Using Internal Memory Areas
There are two cross-program memory areas to which ABAP programs have access (refer to the diagram in Memory Structures of an ABAP Program) that you can use to pass data between programs.
SAP Memory
SAP memory is a memory area to which all main sessions within a SAPgui have access. You can use SAP memory either to pass data from one program to another within a session, or to pass data from one session to another. Application programs that use SAP memory must do so using SPA/GPA parameters (also known as SET/GET parameters). These parameters can be set either for a particular user or for a particular program using the SET PARAMETER statement. Other ABAP programs can then retrieve the set parameters using the GET PARAMETER statement. The most frequent use of SPA/GPA parameters is to fill input fields on screens (see below).
ABAP Memory
ABAP memory is a memory area that all ABAP programs within the same internal session can access using the EXPORT and IMPORT statements. Data within this area remains intact during a whole sequence of program calls. To pass data to a program which you are calling, the data needs to be placed in ABAP memory before the call is made. The internal session of the called program then replaces that of the calling program. The program called can then read from the ABAP memory. If control is then returned to the program which made the initial call, the same process operates in reverse. For further information, refer to Data Clusters in ABAP Memory.
Filling Input Fields on an Initial Screen
Most programs that you call from other programs have their own initial screen that the user must fill with values. For an executable program, this is normally the selection screen. The SUBMIT statement has a series of additions that you can use to fill the input fields of the called program:
Filling the Selection Screen of a Called Program
You cannot fill the input fields of a screen using additions in the calling statement. Instead, you can use SPA/GPA parameters. For further information, refer to Filling an Initial Screen Using SPA/GPA Parameters.
