Interface to another database

Hi Gurus,
does anyone know if it is possible to pull data out of SAP directly into any other SQL-based database?
I know of course that you can write files in ABAP which can interact as an interface, but I do not know about an interface to SQL-databases.
We are using release 4.6c.
Thanks for any help.
Markus

Hi markus,
1. for this u will also require help of basis team.
2. these are the steps.
a) make an entry in DBCON
b) make connection string
(on the physical application server,
so that it can connect to secondary database)
(this will be done by basis team,
in which, they will specify the
IP address of the secondary database server,
the DATABASE ID, and the port number)
c) then using open sql / native sql,
we can use the secondary database connection,
just like normal.
d) if we use open sql,
then there must be Y/Z table on
sap as well as secondary database,
and the field names , their type all should be identical.
regards,
amit m.

Help on export sybase iq tables with data and import in another database ?

Help on export Sybase iq 16 tables with data and import into another database ?

Hi Nilesh,
If you have table/index create commands (DDLs), you can create them in Developper and import data using one of methods below
Extract/ Load table
Insert location method : require IQ servers to be entered in interfaces file
Backup/Restore : copy entire database content
If you have not the DDLs, you can generate them using IQ cockpit or SCC.

DBMS_DATAPUMP import into another database instance

Hi there,
i have a quick question as i didn't find an answer in my oracle documentations...
I use a PL/SQL program in a Oracle Application Express (APEX) application to import a dumpfile via the dbms_datapump API. It`s no problem to import it into the database on which APEX runs and i'm connected to in my application, but now i want to start an import of the dumpfile into another database. I know that it is possible in the commandline interface of the data pump tool to import a dumpfile from one database instance to another with a connect identifier in the connect string.
Could someone tell me where i have to put these information in the datapump API?
Fennek

Hi,
thx for the replies...
I think damorgan is right, in the meantime i read somewhere else that you appearantly cant start an import into another databse instance out of PL/SQL...
Well, maybe i will try to use dbms_scheduler to start an external script which starts the import tool like apex_disco wrote...

How to copy file from one table to another table at another database

I need to transfer my tables from one workspace and schema to another workspace and schema. Basically I need to create again all the tables at this new schema. How could I transfer data from tha table at old schema to the table at new schema when this table has files stored in it? (data type is blob)
thank you so much,
Silver

Hello Silver,
Depending which database you're using (if it's available) I would recommend to use datapump.
Datapump allows you to copy an entire schema to another database, it's the "new" export/import you might now.

Dimitri

How to update date in a table from another database

Hello,
I am trying to code a way to Update my Testing database from another database. In the coding below the database that has the updated data ends in Restore.
Use ClientDB_MASTER_Restore
Truncate Table ClientDB_MASTER_Testing.dbo.Activity_Tracking_AZ
GO
SELECT * INTO ClientDB_Master_Testing.dbo.Activity_Tracking_AZ
FROM Activity_Tracking_AZ
Go
I know with this Technique the table must be truncated if not deleted first. There is probably a better way to do this which I'm very open to. I'm also looking for coding that will roll back any changes made should an error occur.
As always, any help is greatly appreciated.
David92595

USE ClientDB_MASTER_Testing
go
SET XACT_ABORT ON
BEGIN TRANSACTION
Truncate Table dbo.Activity_Tracking_AZ
-- SET IDENTITY_INSERT dbo.Activity_Tracking_AZ ON
INSERT dbo.Activity_Tracking_AZ (col1, col2, ...)
SELECT col1, col2,
FROM ClientDB_MASTER_Restore.dbo.Activity_Tracking_AZ
-- SET IDENTITY_INSERT dbo.Activity_Tracking_AZ OFF
COMMIT TRANSACTION
If you find it boring to type the column lists, just find the table in Object Explorer, and drag the columns node to where you want the column list.
You need the SET IDENTITY_INSERT command if the table has an IDENTITY column.
By wrapping the code in a transaction, you are not left with an empty table if the INSERT fails. The command SET XACT_ABORT ON makes sure that the batch is aborted and rolled back in case of an error.

How to Add Sales order from one database to another database

Hi All,
I am trying to add sales order with sales order object.
I have completed connectivity from one database to another database.
but i am unable to post sales order with orders object.
My code is
ObjSales = objMain.objUtilities.GetBusinessObject(SAPbobsCOM.BoObjectTypes.oOrders)
 ObjSales.DocDate = Date.Parse(System.DateTime.Now().ToString("d"))
 ObjSales.DocDueDate = Date.Parse(System.DateTime.Now().ToString("d"))
 ObjSales.TaxDate = Date.Parse(System.DateTime.Now().ToString("d"))
 ObjSales.CardCode = "C0006"
 ObjSales.Series = 92
 ObjSales.PaymentGroupCode = 3
 ObjSales.Comments = "vivek"
 ObjSales.Lines.Add()
 ObjSales.Lines.SetCurrentLine(1)
 ObjSales.Lines.ItemCode = "5127"
 ObjSales.Lines.Quantity = 100
 ObjSales.Lines.UnitPrice = 10
 ObjSales.Lines.WarehouseCode = "01"
 ObjSales.Lines.TaxCode = "0"
 ObjSales.Lines.DiscountPercent = "0.00"
 ObjSales.DocTotal = 1000
 If ObjSales.Add <> 0 Then
 objMain.objApplication.SetStatusBarMessage("Sales or Not Posted", SAPbouiCOM.BoMessageTime.bmt_Short, True)
 Exit Sub
 else
 objMain.objUtilities.ShowSuccessMessage("Sales Order Posted successfully")
 End If
The above code is executing successfully.But the Sales order is not getting added.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Vivek,
If the code you posted is not throwing any errors, then the order really does get created. Apparently just not to both databases, am I correct ?
vivek.Y wrote:
> I have completed connectivity from one database to another database.
That means that apparently you have not gotten this bit right.
Generally speaking if you want to create an order into two databases, you first need to connect to both databases and create separate order objects for each database. So you need to do this bit twice; once for each database. Something like this:
ObjSales1 = objMain.objUtilities1.GetBusinessObject(SAPbobsCOM.BoObjectTypes.oOrders)
ObjSales2 = objMain.objUtilities2.GetBusinessObject(SAPbobsCOM.BoObjectTypes.oOrders)
Then at the end you also need to add both objects separately:
If ObjSales1.Add <> 0 Then
etc.
If ObjSales2.Add <> 0 Then
etc
Good luck,
Johan

Different ways to Transfer data from one database to another database

Hi all,
What are the ways to transfer data from one database to another database. With the following options, i Can transfer data as far as i know. Please
correct me if i am wrong or tell me if there is any other options are available.
1) Create database link/connection string and using this string and COPY command, we can transfer data.
2) By using Export and Import utilities.
I told first one to my interviewer, he told, its strange, by using, COPY command also can we transfer data ? As far as i know, we can transfer data. Am i right ?
Thanks in advance,
Pal

transfer data from one database to another database.You mean store the data of one to another?
1) Create database link/connection string and using this string and COPY command, we can transfer data.every SELECT on a DB-link is transfering data. And you can have all kind of transfers and store on the e.g CTAS of materialized views or.... the SQL*PLUS COPY :
The COPY command is not being enhanced to handle datatypes or features introduced with, or after Oracle8i. The COPY command is likely to be made obsolete in a future release.
But there are many others. Check for ORACLE Streams, and the "COPY" your interviewer was mentioning is about the operating file system COPY right? That's transportable tablespaces.

How do you know the object is from another database through db link

I have a table named a2z_people. I searched dba_objects, I found this is a public synonym.
How can I know the real table name in the another database. Where is this table come from? In another words, what's the source database?
Thanks!

In DBA_SYNONYMS, there is a DB_LINK column that names the database link being used (assuming the real object is on a remote database). Is that what you're looking for?

Copying data to another database after little transformation

Hi,
Is there any better pattern for
copying data from one database to another database after some little transformation(can be simple SQL join).
I see couple of options like..
1. Using materialized views
2. Writing a simple procedure to do copy and transformation.
3. Using a pure ETL tool.
Is there any other simple and secure way of doing this ?
Thanks in advance,
Vijay.

Hi Justin,
A couple of questions
1) Are you copying from an Oracle database to another
Oracle database? Or are there non-Oracle databases
involved?I am copying from Oracle to Oracle.
2) Are there just two databases? Or more?Only two.
3) Are you copying all the data from one database to
another? Or are you copying just a subset of data?I just need to copy a subset(can get using SQL join) of data
4) How frequently does the data need to be copied?exactly 500 times, but at different intervals..
How soon after the data changes in the source system
m does in need to be changed in the destination
system?the copying process has to be triggered based on some data in source database.
5) Is the data flowing in only one direction?Yes
6) Is there some drawback to the three options you've
outlined that you're trying to avoid? If one of
these options meets all your requirements, I'd assume
that you wouldn't bother posting a question. That
implies to me that there is some unstated requirement
that you're trying to meet...I just want to know, whether there is any standard(typical) way to do this.
Thanks,
Vijay.

How to import a table from another database using DB toolset.

Hello All
I would like to import a table from one database to another using DB toolbox.
I do not want to import all data to LV and then save them to another database. Instead I would prefer to use SQL syntax.
Does anobody know how to write SQL command to import whole table from one database to another?
I have found in some SQL manual that INSERT INTO should work, but JET4 returns an error that table (e.g. c:\mydatabase\table1) can not be found.
Thanks in advance

A temp interface CANNOT be used as a derived table in ODI 10g.
All you can do is to drag and drop the temp interface as the source in the mapping.

Select data from another database

Hi,
Is it possible to retrieve data from a table from another database?
For instance, I have two databases db_1 and db_2
I login to the database db_1 using
sqlplus username/psw@db1
and to the database db_2 using
sqlplus username/psw@db2
In SQL> db1 I would like to use select statement from a table in the db2. Is it possible?
Another question:
I have two tablespaces TP1 and TP2 in the database db1
The TP1 is my default tablespace.
Can I switch from TP1 to TP2 tablespace in the sqlplus?
If not, how can I select all tables obtained in the TP2? Or how can I select data from a table in the TP2?
Thanks

I don't know how to create a db link. 
SQL Reference Guide - CREATE DATABASE LINK 
There are some examples in the doc above. 
 
What about if db1 and db2 have the same table name? No problem, exactly like when you have two same table name accross two schemas on same database. The table suffixed by the dblink name come from the other schema of other database (schema which you use to connect through the dblink to the other database).
