Import/export journals using an output file

I am looking into loading journals using an output file in SAP BPC intead of entering every journal using the template.
Hello everybody,
I have found that 3 DTS packages exist for this issue:
Export the Journal Tables
Clear the Journal Tables.
Restore the Journal Tables.
I have added these packages (using the three .dtsx files that are in the server, in the "Examples" folder) and, after that, run the packages in the proper order. I have some doubts that I would appreciate if you could solve them:
1.- When I run "Export the Journal Tables" package, I can NOT make a selection of journals (for example, using Time dimension).There is no possibility. Is it possible modify this DTS package to export only some selected journals? In case it is, how?
2.- In order to restore journals table, firstly you need to clear all the table using "Clear the Journal Tables" package (I tried to do it without clearing all the journals, and I got an error message that said that I have to clear the journal table before importing ). Would it be possible to restore/import only some journals WITHOUT clearing ALL the previous journals??
3.- I have exported the Journal Table to an output file, clear all the journals in the Journal Table (using the proper package) and run the "Restore the Journal Tables" package using the output file I have gotten before. I have gotten this error: "Exception from HRESULT: 0x800A005B". Do you know what's the problem?
4.- Dou you know another way of loading journals using an output file in SAP BPC intead of entering every journal using the template?
Thank you very much.

There may be options to your process, but as I have mentioned in other strings, the Journals in the BPC for Microsoft version are sequenced. That means that there is a system generated sequence ID for each journal. Any individual selection of journals would possibly cause an issue for the sequence. I have not seen any past work in SSIS to detach the records for export or import. It may be possible, but I would assume it will take some core SQL coding.
Regarding your error, you may need to verify that you have the security set correctly to use Journals and use the Data Manager capabilities. Typically, when security tasks are not correct, you will get an error similar to your HRRESULTX.... error.
An option for loading the details is to build a worksheet in EVDRE, aggregate the data and send it to the cube at a level that is easy to save the file and submit consolidated results. Just make sure you send all "like" records at an aggregated to a base member, and send to a datasrc to identify the extra details. Then store the excel file with the input values.
Hope this helps.

Can you fix your help project (via coding) after importing a topic from an output file by mistake?

Yes - I admit it - I imported html topic files from an output folder of another RH project into the help project I am currently working on (the source files were lost and I needed to bring over a lot of legacy content in a hurry). However, I completely forget that the RH output html file contains unique Java scripting that is used to render the topic properly in a browser, but that same Java Script causes havoc when you open it up in as a source file in another RH Project. Needless to say, it has caused numerous weird things when I went to publish and view my files (but, surprisingly, you don’t really see or notice them in the RH Design WYSIWYG view or preview mode).
The bad news is that it took about 2 weeks for me to notice the issue (the help output is viewed on a special console running Linux with a QT browser that I only view occasionally). The good news is that is that I figured out what the problem was (that took some hours) and I can restore my help project back to a time before I did the "naughty deed".
I am now at a crossroads - do I:
Try to re-enter all of my content from the last two weeks? (Actually, to avoid repeating the same mistake twice, I will need to re-enter the text manually and NOT cut and paste from the RH output files!)
Or locate and find the offending HTML coding in my topic files (if that is even possible)? Has anybody documented what the RH output file JavaScript code injects into your files, and what files they affect?

OK - here is the documentation of this weird issue (hopefully, you can read the htlm code in the screen images):
1. In this topic, I cut and pasted some text into the table you see at the bottom of the screen. I had to reapply the “TableBody” style to this text. After doing this, I moved my cursor to the “Keyboard" text on top. Notice that it is displaying the "TABLEBODY" style, although visually, it is displaying the correct style on screen (“Heading 1”).
2.     In HTML view, notice the addition of the class= “TableBody”> code for this “Keyboard” text.
3.   I then reselected Heading 1 for this “Keyboard” text.
4.   Notice that the class= “TableBody”> code is now removed for this “Keyboard” text and has just the proper <h1> tagged assigned.

Import a Workflow using an XML file in Tcode SWDD

Hello,
I have a problem in the workflow builder- Tcode SWDD:
I am trying to copy workflow from one system (ECC 5.0) to another one (ECC 6.0) ? I use transaction Workflow-> Import/export->Export to xml files and import the xml files again, but the new workflow is different from the original one. The steps do not have the same numbering and the Workflow graphic is far from being identical to the old one.
Could someone explain me the reason of this problem in detail and how it could be solved? It's really a big workflow and would need to avoid creating it manually.
Thank you very much for your help.
Best regards,
Sylvain

Hello,
The main problem that I had with the steps is that most names were not the same as the old Workflow. Instead of having the correct description I had some coding commands which created a bunch of errors when I tried to perform the syntax check.
I believe you are right. In the new system (ECC 6.0) I do not have the Business Engineering objects like the tasks "TS....". I will create them first and try the Workflow import again after.
I will let you know if it corrected the error or not.
Best regards,
Sylvain

Hello Charles,
The SQL Syntax especially for DDL commands are different between MS SQL Server and Advantage Database, so you have to modify them to get them work.
As David already wrote we don't have a stored procedure "sp_CreateIndex90" in SQL Server, you may remove these commands, and we also don't have a data type "Logical", next could be "bit"

Import/Export code using Memory ID in BO Method

Hi experts,
I am having a approver name and other relevant data in my report. I don't want to write the entire code I want to bring it into my BO method by using import/export memory id. Pl. guide me what should I do ? Is it possible or not?
Thank you,
Saquib

I am a bit confused that what you are trying to achieve. In any case I think you can forget any export/import memory ID related solutions - they will not work!
The workflow (or its step/task) is executing your BO method, right? You want this method to have some data when it gets executed? Normally you would want to populate the data to the workflow (or task) container, for example with function SAP_WAPI_WRITE_CONTAINER (you just need the work item ID). Then when this data is in the container, you can use it in your method (binding required).
Somehow I feel that you looking a difficult solution for a simple problem. If you need some relevant data in your workflow, let the workflow to find it (add a new step to the workflow, and copy/paste the relevant part of the code of your report to this step). (Or try to give the data to the workflow already when it gets started, if possible). Don't try to mix things with some separate report, unless it is completely necessary, and if it is, then writing into the container is most likely the best approach.

Is XMP import/export for MOV/MTS/MP4 files not supported?

I have been evalutating LR4 and am stuck on how to import my files from another DAM into LR4.
I am able to write XMP into JPG files, and provide sidecar XMP files for RAW (CR2) and MOV/MP4/MTS files, writing my hierarchical keyword information into the xmp-dc:Subject and xmp-lr:HierarchicalSubject fields.
LR4 seems to read the XMP keywords from the JPG and RAW files just fine and re-creates my keyword hierarchy.
LR4 seems to ignore on import the XMP for the non-image files such as the MOV/MP4/MTS files for which I have provided sidecar files.
LR4 also does not write out XMP files for the non-image files, when I use save Medatada.
Does LR4 just ignore import/writing XMP for these non-image files?
Thanks,

MTS files can't really accept metadata embedding -your best bet is to use ClipWrap to "re-wrap" AVCHD/MTS files into MOV files.
This still does not fix the problem of LR not writing XMP data to video files. Unfortunately, if you want to have metadata that stays with your MOV files, you'll want to use something aside form LR4 -I wouldn't bother doing much video cataloging in LR4.

Import/export contacs using Ovi

I want to exchage all the contact inoformation and messages between a N73 and a 5800 XpressMusic.
I use Ovi, and I can not find out how to save all the information, and to export them to the cell phones!
what should I do???

Sync your contacts and messages with Ovi using the N73 when complete, sync 5800, the contacts will sync automatically, but you will have to drag the messages from Ovi Suite to the phone (just click and hold the messages you want to transfer and drag to the 'phone icon on the Ovi suite screen)
Good Luck
If I have helped at all, a click on the White Star is always appreciated :
you can also help others by marking 'accept as solution'

IMPORT & EXPORT from/to compressed files directly...

for newbies a tip to import(export) directly to(from) compressed files using pipes . Its for Unix based systems only, as I am not aware of any pipe type functionality in Windows. The biggest advantage is that you can save lots of space as uncompressing a file makes it almost 5 times or more. (Suppose you are uncompressing a file of 20 GB, it will make 100 GB) As a newbie I faced this problem, so thought about writing a post.
Lets talk about export first. The method used is that create a pipe, write to a pipe(ie the file in exp command is the pipe we created), side by side read the contents of pipe, compress(in the background) and redirect to a file. Here is the script that achieves this:
export ORACLE_SID=MYDB
rm -f ?/myexport.pipe
mkfifo ?/myexport.pipe
cat ?/myexport.pipe |compress > ?/myexport.dmp.Z &
sleep 5
exp file=?/myexport.pipe full=Y log=myexport.logSame way for import, we create a pipe, zcat from the dmp.Z file, redirect it to the pipe and then read from pipe:
export ORACLE_SID=MYDB
rm -f ?/myimport.pipe
mkfifo ?/myimport.pipe
zcat ?/myexport.dmp.Z > ?/myimport.pipe &
sleep 5
imp file=myimport.pipe full=Y show=Y log=?/myimport.logIn case there is any issue with the script, do let me know :)
Experts, please have a look...is it fine ? (Actually I dont have Oracle installed on my laptop(though have Fedora 6) so couldnt test the scripts)
I posted the same on my blog too. just for bookmark ;)
Sidhu

actually, only the compression thing runs in the background. rest proceeds like normal only. just instead of giving normal file we use pipe as a file.
nice article about named pipes

Using Output files in businesses

Hi,
I've used captivate for my own small business but now am employed elsewhere and want to know if anyone has any idea about licensing issues with using the output files from captivate in a business that doesn't/hasn't purchased the actual program?
I have a legal copy on my personal PC and create the files there then transfer the output file to my work. They have expressed ome concern as they don't own the program. Everything in the product license agreement seems to talk about the actual program, not what you create with it.
Can anyone direct me where I might find this kind of info? Is it just classed as a shockwave file (which my employer does have license for)
Thanks.

Hi there
I've poked around the Adobe site a bit as well as Googled and Googled. Either I'm using the wrong terms or the information simply isn't there. The bottom line is that we all understand that whatever you create using Captivate is owned by you. There is no restriction placed on use of the content you create.
It's the same issue with any software used to create content.
Does Microsoft Paint impose a restriction on how you use images created using it?
Does Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint or other do the same?
Sure, if you want the end user to be able to modify your creation they will need their own license for Captivate to view and make edits. But all they need to simply view the content is the Flash Player.
Cheers... Rick

How to change output file setting?

Everytime I export a project in Premiere Pro CS5 to Media Encoder the output file setting is always the same... a location for a project I did ages ago. I would prefer it to be saved in either the folder where the current edited project is, or a general output video file on my drive.
Now before you think I'm a total noob, please be aware that I have gone into the ME preferences and changed the output file location, but believe it or not this did not work. Files are still being saved to the old location. Next, I turned off the "Place output files in" option thinking that files would go to the project folder as Adobe Help says, but nope, they still go into the old project file. I've done all of these actions and re-launched ME several times with the same results.
Of course I can always click on the output file in ME and manually change it but for the life of me I don't understand why its always defaulting to a project I did long ago. I'm about ready to uninstall and reinstall ME but thought I'd take one last shot and ask here if anyone else has encountered this problem.

Note that the export path is controlled by the app that initiates the job.
when you export a job from Premiere, the initial export path is controlled by Premiere, which uses the last path that you manually set*; if you never set a path on export, then it defaults to the folder where the PPRO project is saved.
*PPRO updates this path only if you change it in the Export Settings dialog that is invoked by Premiere; if you wait until the job is in AME's queue, then PPRO is unaware that you changed the output path. I suspect this is the crux of the issue you're having with PPRO setting the path to a folder you exported to ages ago.
When you start in AME and import a job, the Specify Output File Destination preference is applied if that option is enabled; if it's not, then the path defaults to the path of the source.

ABAP command IMPORT/EXPORT

Hi!
I would like to know whats the replacement for the IMPORT and export commands used in 4.7c in ECC6. Can anyone tell me whats the replacement commands for import and export command that is used in abap/4 4.7c for ECC6.
Thanks

Hi Aarav,
there is nothing like replacement for import/export.there is another statements to transferdata which are Set/Get.
when you are working with sap you have sessions.so in between session if you want to transfer data then you will use set/get parameters.import/export are used within the session.means you opened se38 and written a program and then go back to se38 initial screen and entered another program name and in that program you want the data which is in the previous program you have written in the se38 in same session.
reward points if helpful.

SAP HANA: IMPORT/EXPORT Views

We can Import/export tables using hdbsql CLI.
But Is there any way by which we can export/import Views(attribute,analytic,calculation) using hdbsql CLI.
I raised above question some days back
SAP HANA: IMPORT/EXPORT Views | SCN
Also while checking on internet I found another link for the same issue:
http://scn.sap.com/thread/2141404
And from experts answers, I came to conclusion that Import/Export Views(Attribute/Analytic/Calculation views)in SAP HANA is not possible through hdbsql CLI/ SQL commands.Now Is there a way where I can confirm this from SAP HANA program management guys?

Lars,
Thanks for the explanation.
What I am trying to achieve is to create an automate script which should export all tables and views for a schema and again import tables and views in a different schema.
table part is done, But stuck in view part.
I tried the below command and was able to export the calculation view which I created in Content and exists as
_SYS_BIC-->Package(same name as schema where all the tables are stored) --> View Name.
Command used was:
EXPORT "<Schema_Name>"."<Package_Name>/<View_Name>" INTO '<path>'
Now I have 2 ques :
1) I am not sure how to import this exported view. I tried below command but it failed:
IMPORT "<Schema_Name>"."<Package_Name>/<View_Name>" FROM '<path>'
2) Not sure how to export and import all the views.
I did IMPORT SCAN of the path as well and found below entries for the exported view in the mentioned path:
SCHEMA_NAME, OBJECT_NAME, OBJECT_TYPE, EXISTS
"_SYS_BIC", "<Packagename>/CalculationViewName>", "VIEW", 1
"_SYS_BIC", "<Packagename>/AnalyticViewName>", "VIEW", 1
"_SYS_BIC", "<Packagename>/CalculationViewName>/olap", "VIEW", 1
"_SYS_BIC", "vwTile1ALLData", "VIEW", 1
Any Inputs would definitely help. Thanks.

How can I auto export a PDF File using the "Smallest File Size" preset and set the Exported File Name based on information from an Imported PDF?

Greetings all,
I am trying to create a script to automate a PDF export process for my company for inDesign. I’m fairly new to inDesign itself and have no previous experience with javascript, although I did take C++ in high school and have found it helpful in putting this code together.
We have an inDesign template file and then use the Multi-page PDF importer script to import PDF files. We then have to export two version of each file that we import, then delete the imported file and all of the pages to reset the template. This has to be done for nearly 1000 pdf files each month and is quite tedious. I’m working on automating the process as much as possible. I’ve managed to piece together code that will cleanup the file much quicker and am now trying to automate the PDF exports themselves.
The files are sent to us as “TRUGLY#####_Client” and need to be exported as “POP#####_Client_Date-Range_North/South.pdf”
For example, TRUGLY12345_Client needs to be exported as POP12345_Client_Mar01-Mar31_North and POP12345_Client_Mar01-Mar31_South.
There are two templates built into the template file for the north and south file that are toggled easily via layer visibility switches. I need to get a code that can ideally read the #s from the imported Trugly file as well as the Client and input those into variables to use when exporting. The date range is found in the same place in the top right of each pdf file. I am not sure if this can be read somehow or if it will have to be input manually. I can put North or South into the file name based on which template layer is visible.
I am not sure how to go about doing this. I did find the following code for exporting to PDF with preset but it requires me to select a preset and then type the full file name. How can I set it to automatically use the “Smallest File Size” preset without prompting me to choose and then automatically input some or preferably all of the file name automatically? (If the entire filename is possible then I don’t even want a prompt to appear so it will be fully automated!)
PDF Export Code (Originally from here: Simple PDF Export with Preset selection | IndiSnip [InDesign® Snippets]):
var myPresets = app.pdfExportPresets.everyItem().name;
myPresets.unshift("- Select Preset -");
var myWin = new Window('dialog', 'PDF Export Presets');
myWin.orientation = 'row';
with(myWin){
    myWin.sText = add('statictext', undefined, 'Select PDF Export preset:');
    myWin.myPDFExport = add('dropdownlist',undefined,undefined,{items:myPresets});
    myWin.myPDFExport.selection = 0;
    myWin.btnOK = add('button', undefined, 'OK');
myWin.center();
var myWindow = myWin.show();
if(myWindow == true && myWin.myPDFExport.selection.index != 0){
    var myPreset = app.pdfExportPresets.item(String(myWin.myPDFExport.selection));
    myFile = File(File.saveDialog("Save file with preset: " + myPreset.name,"PDF files: *.pdf"));
    if(myFile != null){
        app.activeDocument.exportFile(ExportFormat.PDF_TYPE, myFile, false, myPreset);
    }else{
        alert("No File selected");
}else{
    alert("No PDF Preset selected");
So far my code does the following:
1) Runs the Multi-Page PDF Import Script
2) Runs PDF Export Script Above
3) Toggles the Template
4) Runs #2 Again
5) Deletes the imported PDF and all pages and toggles template again.
It’s close and much better than the original process which was almost 100% manual but I’d like to remove the Preset prompt from the PDF script and have it automatically select the “Smallest File Size” preset. and then if there’s a way to have it auto-fill in the file name so no user input is required at all other than selecting each file to import. (If there’s a way to setup a batch action for the multi-import script that would be even better!)
Thanks in advance and if there’s anything else I can provide that would help please let me know! Even a nudge in the right direction will be a big help!

If you hold down the option key, it will typically show the location. Or you can often hit option-return on the file and it will reveal the file in the Finder, instead of opening it.
Final option is to open it, and just option-click the filename in the toolbar of Preview and it should show you the location.
It's probably an attachment to an email you've received. If you have Mail set to cache emails and their attachments it'll be stashed in a subdirectory of ~/Library/Mail. Which is fine.
