Generic Extractor on DB Table without Date, Time stamp

Hi all,
We have requirement of creating a generic extractor on the table which doesnt have date or time stamp in the data field. The only option availabel is to extract from Document numbers.
And we cant put the extractor mode to "Read from view" because the table contains Currency field which refers to external table for currency key.
The moment we change the extractor mode from Extraction from view to Extraction from FM the option "Numeric pointer" gets hidden.
What shall we do in this scenario ?? Pls advice.
Thanks.
Regards
Nimesh

Hello Tapan, Prakash
Prakash : Currency key is needed in BW .
Tapan : I was just trying diff. options i.e. extraction from view and FM . Problem with Generic Extractor is that i dont have any date fields getting updated in the table. The only field that can be used for delta is document number. And Generic extractor only allows date or time stamp option , its not allowing numeric pointer if one reads from FM.

Generic extractors on pool table and Cluster tables

Good Afternoon all,
Can we create generic extractors on Cluster or pool Table. If yes Let me know how?
I am trying to create a Generic Extractor on BSEC Table but it is not allowing me to do this. It throws error that"Extraction from pool tables and cluster tables is not permitted"
Kindly guide me on this
Thanks,
Vaishali.

Hi
you cannot do generic extraction directly on pooled or cluster tables.
You can create a function module, then you can create a Generic Data source based on this..
Hope it helps,
Thanks,

Need to add date/time stamp to file name without time change creating new files

We have setup our application to save data once a trigger event occurs. We also need the date/time stamp as part of the file name. We used Format Date/Time String and concatenated it into the file name. It all works good, but as the time changes (seconds, minutes, etc.) it causes the Write to File to create a new file with the new filename. Is there a way to create the file and save/latch/buffer the time in the file name so that it doesn't create a new file for every second?
I've attached a shot of the relevant part of our VI. It's all in a big while loop. The data save is in a case/switch so that when it is triggered it starts saving. (The for loop is to split the data up
into 4 different files). Like I said, it all works except new files are created every second as the time changes instead of just putting it all in one file with the initial time in the file name.

I need a loop in order to use a shift register. I cannot stop the outer while loop (because it would stop the hardware from collecting data), and I cannot add loops inside which bogs down the processor to where the app stops. I've attached a simpler version of my VI which illustrates the problem. While the button is pressed (the trigger) it should save the data (in this case just cycle numbers) into one file with the initial date/time. But, you can see that it creates 1 file/second. I tried using shift registers, but without adding extra loops I can't see how to do it. Thanks

Generic delta has problem with delts pointer time stamp

Hi All,
We have generic delta data source with Delte pointer as Time stamp. We have not used any safety limits. We are loading the data to DSO and using Additive delta. But the problem is when delta flag is set, there might be a case where some records still being inserted to table with lower time stamp. These records are not being fetched in next delta.
We are planning to keep a safety upper limit of 5 min so that those records can not be missed. But we have a doubt as it is a Additive delta duplicate records will be loaded. If we make the delta to 'new status to changed records', it is going to work?? Any other things we have to check when we make this changes??
Thanks
Haaris

Hi
If you had selected additive delta then you can load data to DSo with addition mode only. No overwrite possible.
If you want to select new or changed status then you can load to DSO with overwrite mode only.
Additive or changed delta depends on your requirement because if you want to add data to the DSO then you can go ahead with additive otherwise you have to use DSO with overwrite mode only.
You can either give safety upper limit or lower limit but if you give safety lower limit then you can only load data to DSO with overwrite mode because there could be some duplicate records.
Hope it clarifies.

Error messages when sending date-time stamp to Oracle Database

I have a complex application that communicates with an Oracle database. One of the table values that gets written to the table is a date-time stamp. Until recently, the user only required a date, and this was never an error. (The format String used was %d-%b-%Y) Now they need a time-stamp as well, so I attempted to edit the format string input of the format date/time string function to include the time. I have tried numerous format strings, each of which returns an error on execution. Depending on which format I use, I get one of 3 different error messages. The really odd thing is that both the date and time always get stored in Oracle without any problem (regardless of what date-time I use, as long as I include the date and any part of a time stamp - I get the entire timestamp even if I only include %I for the hour). The only issue is that LabVIEW generates an ODBC error if I try to include the time to the date-time stamp. In other words, teh date/time stamp writes to the Oracle database, but an ODBC error occurs every time. I've included a word doc with screen captures of the format strings used, the resultant date/time stamps written to Oracle and the error messages generated within LabVIEW. Any advice would be most appreciated.

Summary of ODBC Error messages related to date-time stamp.doc ‏65 KB

Oracle has a standard date format: 12-Mar-2009 that it accepts as a string, but if you want more than that, you need to use the todate() function. I used this string going into the standard LabVIEW ''Format date/time sting vi'
to_date('%d-%b-%Y %H:%M:%S', 'DD-MON-YYYY HH24:MIS') to create the value needed for Oracle.
Then I use standard format string to create SQL: insert into mytable (mydate) values(%s) and select * from my table where mydate = %s using the string above for %s.
I think you can also define a global format for all time strings but I haven't bothered figuring that out.

How do you vary the Date/Time stamp format in File Adapters

In the receiver channel of the File Adapter where you specify the 'File Name Scheme', you do have the option of specifying a 'File Construction Mode' of 'Add Time Stamp'. How can you specify a different Date/Time stamp format ( eg MM/DD/YY vs YYYYMMDD vs MMDDYY, etc. ) without changing the Date/Time stamp for the entire SAP system? Also, can you control where the Date/Time stamp appears in the filename?

Hi,
There are many threads discussing the same issue. Go thro the following:
Dynamic file name (Date) in Receiver File Adapter
Receiver File Adapter - TimeStamp
Bhavesh's reply in above thread:
You can use Adapter Specific Identifiers and then change the file name in the mapping. Append the tiem stamp in the format that you want and so on.
Just use this code in an UDF,
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","FileName");
String SourceFileName = conf.get(key);
java.text.SimpleDateFormat dateformat = new java.text.SimpleDateFormat( "yyyyMMdd" );
dateformat.format( new java.util.Date() );
String newfilename=SourceFileName+dateformat;
// change to new file name
conf.put(key, newfilename);
return "";

How do I remove date/time stamp?

Upon uploading the pictures into the Lightroom 'library' none of them appeared to have the date stamp that they did in camera. After a few minutes, the date stamp for each started to appear. Seeing that they first loaded without the date stamp leads me to believe that I should be able to remove it easily. How can I do this without the hassle of cloning/cropping/editing. Is there a way to remove it from the metadata perhaps?

Which data/time stamp are you talking about, and why do you want to remove it?
I mean, it can probably be done using exiftool, but usually people want to keep it/them (or correct if wrong..).
I mean #2, I think you can remove it from exports, e.g. using a plugin like Jeffrey Friedl's Metadata Wrangler (if Lr's coarse handling doesn't satisfy), or if Jeffrey's plugin won't do it, a plugin like Exportant would.
Or if you just want to remove it from display - then press the 'i' key, or adjust view options, or define a metadata viewing preset...

Save the file and give date & time stamp

1. Reading the Excel file from the selection screen as a parameter.
2. Using F.M. ALSM_EXCEL_TO_INTERNAL_TABLE reading Excel file into
    Internal table.
3. Implementing the Business Logic.
4. Move output to Final Internal table.
5. Final internal table should generate a Flat file. By using GUI_DOWNLOAD.
6. That flat file should be saved with the name and location given in the Excel.
7. When ever I run the program output file will generate in the same location but with date and time stamp. Because Im running the program for range of employees say initially I run for 1 10,000 employees next 10,001- 20,000 like that.
Whenever I run for 2nd time it will overwrite the previous output, thats the reason Im using date and time stamp.
Eg:
PERSONAL Numbers              Name                                         Location
00000001                 xxxxx-24.04.2007-10.30          C:\
00000002                 xxxxx-24.04.2007-10.35
00000003                 xxxxx-25.04.2007-10.40
00000004                                  xxxxx-25.04.2007-10.30
Can any one help me how to save the file and give date & time stamp through hardcode?
please help me in this issue.

I am not clear with your problem. Based on the understanding of your question,
there can be two cases.
1- U want to insert time stamp in the output file.
2- Time stamp is already there, u just have to solve the overwriting issue.
If your question goes with option 2, You can make use of import parameters
<b>CONFIRM_OVERWRITE</b> : Which will ask for confirmation before overwriting.
<b>APPEND</b> : which you can choose either to append the data to the existing file or overwrite it.
Please inform if the issue is not resolved.

I have lost the automatic date/time stamp

I have lost the automatic date/time stamp when a form is submitted on my response page. How do I make it start doing it again? The column just appears blank now with new submissions.

In the first cell of the column you need to re-enter the formula that used to be there. Enter "= LOCALTIME(ROWCREATEDATE()". You may need to change the date format after this. Click on the Table button in the toolbar, select the Column with the dates, then select your prefered format.

How to print date & time stamp on photos?

How to print date & time stamp on photos?

Three methods:
File>process multiple files>labels. Be sure to uncheck "same as source", or the originals will be overwritten. It is best to work on duplicate files, esp. while learning.
Use the horizontal or vertical type tool to add the information manually to each picture file
If the same information is to be applied to several pictures, e.g. a copyright notice, use of a brush made in PSE is very efficient

The export file from a calc script - naming and date/time stamp

Here is a simple calc script to export data.
2 questions:
1. Is there an easy way to add a date/time stamp on the name of the data file so that it does not overwrite the older ones every time?
2. I tried to specify the path so that it write to another server. "\\mfldappp011\E:\Exp_AW.txt". It's not working. How should I specify the path ?
Fix (@Relative("Yeartotal",0),"Actual","Working",&ActualYear);
Dataexport "file" "," "C:\Exp_AW.txt" "#MI";
EndFix;
Edited by: user9959627 on Sep 7, 2012 11:25 AM

Probably easiest to call the maxl script from a command line script, then rename the exported file to include the tme stamp and copy/move it to a location.
