How to update a table (CUSTOMER) on a Report Server with the data from the same table (CUSTOMER) from another server Transaction server?

I had an interview question that is:
How to update a table (Customer) on a server ex: Report Server with the data from the same table (Customer) From another server ex: Transaction server?
Set up steps so inset, update or delete operation takes place across the servers.
It would be great if someone please enlighten me in details about this process in MS SQL Server 2008 R2.
Also please describe would it be different for SQL Server 2012?
If so, then what are the steps?

Warehouse stock with production date of batch

Hello,
Can somebody tell me any report where user can see warehouse stocks along with production date of a batch. User wants to do FIFO while doing inventory transactions. And user wants to first transfer oldest produced batch first.
Please suggest.

Hi Sudhir,
Thanks for your response. LX02 shows only GR date for quant- for certain quant GR date is updated as todays date if some stock transaction is done for that quant.
User wants report
He will then be able to move oldest stock based on production date. Example quant has GR date as 24th Feb 2011. But its production date is 24th Feb 2010. So ideally this stock should be moved in FIFO method based on production date.
To summarise, I require standard SAP report stock in LX02 as well as production date/receiving date of a batch in quant.

Possible to test Dev Transaction with Production data in eCatt?

Hi,
I am new to eCatt but got the impression that it was possible to test your transactions in dev with the data in production, presumably through an RFC connection.
Is this at all possible?
Thanks,
Will

Hi Will,
with RFC your are right, but your direction of thinking is wrong.
eCATT lets you develop testscripts in one (central test) system and execute them in and against other systems.
Means, you can write your scripts in a Solution Manager and then execute it via RFC connections against ERP-development
or ERP test system with their specific ERP data.
Please take a look into the eCATT [Online Help|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70ehp1/helpdata/en/d0/e3933f09a5fb47e10000000a114084/frameset.htm]
Hope that helps to understand better distributed testing.
Best regards,
Christoph

Making ActiveX Server with App Builder

OK I am writing a program in C++. I want the GUI to be in Labview and I need the C++ program and Labview GUI to communicate. So I used the app builder to create an ActiveX Server. So how do I use this? Do I use the GUI.tlb instead of the normal labview.tlb? Do I still create an application reference to Labview or do I create an application reference to GUI.exe since this is my executeable now? I can't find much documentation on this at all... Please help!

Switch over to using the GUI components that you mention. Think of it
this way, your C++ program could need to use both LabVIEW and GUI. For
that to work, most of the connection pieces have to be specific about
what they are dealing with.

Upgrading 10.6 server with different data files location

I have been trying to upgrade from 10.6 server to 10.7, but I am having a lot of problems.
I think the main cause of the problem is because when I setup the 10.6 server, the data files (like wiki, calendar, itunes, user profiles) are stored on the external firewire hard disk.
When I try to upgrade the system, it doesn't seem to be able to find the locations itself and I tried to build another server and migrate the data by manually, but I can't even get all the user accounts imported using the instructions on how to migrate Open Directory data.
Anyone used a similar setup and successfully upgraded to Lion Server? Please help.

I have solved this now.
I used Carbon Copy Cloner to move just ServiceData folder back to the startup disk. So everything is on one volume. I used CCC because it preserves all the owners and permissions.
The server admin tool to update each service manually to point to the new folder.
Then I ran "sudo changeip -checkhostname" to check if the result is = "success".
After that, the upgrade ran smoothly.
Thanks.

Setting up a Service Manager Lab environment with prod. data

Hi
I´m about to set up a lab environment with production data. I´m following the guide here; https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj900180.aspx
I have a question regarding the Management Group. The Lab environment will have the same Management group name. In the guide nothing is mentioned about changing the name of the management group.
Will this be a problem when i fire up the Lab environment?
/Regards

Well in the guide https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj900180.aspx states that you should
install a secondary management server and stop the services, backup prod. db, restore prod db on the secondary server (lab-server), change a bunch of rows in different tables.
So naturally it will have the same management
group name.
Am i missing something?

Service Manager 2010 lab environment syncing with production database

I am trying to setup a lab environment for SCSM 2010 to test the upgrade to SCSM 2012. I have been following the instructions found here:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh914226.aspx
I have successfully made it to step 16. However, when I open the SCSM console in the lab environment it still shows the Data Warehouse and Reporting buttons. When I create a new ticket in either the lab or production environment it shows up in both consoles,
even though the production console is connected to the production server and the lab console is connected to the lab server.
Any ideas on why the lab environment is still syncing with the production server?
Thanks

Thread of the Necro-Dancer:
Regardless, the step Katie was apparently implying (but seems to be missing from her description) is the bit where you backup the database and restore it to a separate instance. after this is done, you can then install a new management server targeting this
new instance, and then promote the new management server to the workflow server, and run the isolated database using the new management server.
i would recommend, however, that you use
the supported method of producing a upgrade lab with production data, which is very similar to the method Katie implied, includes directions covering all of these steps involved, and allows you to periodically restore production data to the lab database
with minimal overhead.
I didn't notice the date before now. I just look at the latest unanswered posts, so not sure how I got into this one. But technet has been acting weird lately. I get an internal server error far too often.

FIle Creation in the Application Server With Unicode-8 and Byte-Order Mark

Hi Guys,
I've requirement of creating a file in the Application server with the Data.
The Data Format Should be in UTF-8 and Byte-Order Mark.
I need to supply this data from SAP to PRMS.
I'm able to create a file with Unicode, but any of the guys have worked on Umicode with Byte-Order Mark, please let me know.
Thanks,
Adi.

Hi Mathieu,
If you haven't found an aswer yet, you can check in transaction SE24 CL_ABAP_FILE_UTILITIES method CREATE_UTF8_FILE_WITH_BOM. You can check the code of the method (it's very short) so you can understand how it works. It's also a static method so you can call it directly in your program.
Ex:
CALL METHOD cl_abap_file_utilities=>create_utf8_file_with_bom(your_file_name).
I hope this helps.
Pax Vobiscum.

How can I populate a pdf with database data?

How can I populate a pdf that we have on our server with database data on our server?

Actually, if you export it in the right format then you won't need a script
at all.
You can import data directly into fields from a plain-text file via Tools -
Forms - More Form Options - Import Data...
I believe the format is tab-delimited with the field names in the first row
and their values in the second.

MRP run - misalignment for planned order between Date and Production Date

Hi All,
We've just integrated SAP for a new plant.
The MRP runs based on Routing Lead Time for Make materials instead on Material Master Lead Time, for Capacity Assessment purpose.
When requirements dates lay in the past, MRP performs forward scheduling starting from current date and properly defines Production End Date according to Routing.
By checking MD04, for the proposed Planned Order, the basic date is same as Current Date (= same as Requirement Date) instead of being same as Production Date.
It works as it if checks stil the MAterial MAster LEad time instead of Routing. In fact if I updated the LT of MM the MD04 provides the right Date.
For future requirements, the MRP works properly, by having basic dates (both start and end date) aligned with Production Dates of Planned Order.
How can I do the alignment w/o updating In House Production LT?
Thanks,
D

Hi Caetano,
we have already done this configuration in OPU5 but it doesn't provide any benefit.
Below how we configured it:
Scheduling level: Via detailed scheduling
Adjust dates: adjust basic dates, adjust dep. reqmts to operation date
For capacity scheduling: Always basic dates, dep. reqmts to operation dates
Scheduling type: Backwards.
Regards,
D.

Production date in inbound delivery in batch split

Hi,
I have a issue with production date update in inbound delivery.
I have created a inbound delivery for 10 PC. The inbound delivery has only one line item and there are no batch details on it. As soon as the inbound delivery is created a message is sent to the 3PL . Once the 3PL receives the goods from vendor he send us a message with the batch details. Say the 3PL has received multiple batches from the vendor. So he send us back an SHPCON message with multiple batch details. That is batch A with QTY 6 and batch B with QTY 4. He also send us the production date for each batch via the shpcon idoc. say batch A has production date as 10.02.2011 and batch B has production date as 21.03.2011.
The IDOC is created successfully in our system and the inbound delivery is also updated correctly with the batch split details with correct QTY. That is line item 10 has batch split line items 900001 with batch as A and QTY as 6 and line item 900002 with batch as B and QTY as 4. The issue is only with updation of date of production for each of the above batch. Both batch A & B are updated with date of production as 21.03.2011. Instead of batch A being updated with date of production as 10.02.2011 it is updated with the batch B date of production. I checked in the idoc. In the idoc each batch has correct production date. only when updating the inbound delivery it has updated wrongly.. Has any one come across similar kind of situation. ? How did u manage it?

How to handle refreshing TEST schema with PRODUCTION schema ?

- we have database 10g ( standard edition), database name : ABC
- Schema name: ABC.PRODUCTION (which is our production schema)
- Schema name: ABC.TEST (which is our testing schema, where developers work)
Both the production & Test schemas exist in the same database.
Now once a week I wanted to refresh TEST schema with PRODUCTION data
Here is what I have been doing all these years:
=> Take a logical backup (EXPDP) of PRODUCTION schema (prod.dmp)
=> Drop user TEST cascade ( i don't need a backup of this TEST schema)
=> Create user TEST
=> Import PROD.DMP data into TEST schema
All the above 4 steps are being done manually.
Questions:
======
1. Is there any easier way of doing the above steps using some tool ?
2. Does Oracle enterprise manager which comes free with database installation (http://localhost:118/em)
has any utility or tool to do this job ?
3. I want everything to be refreshed (all database objects including data) ?
Thanks

This is crazy. One inadvertent typo and you'll overwrite your Production schema. Plus, what happens if a developer 'tests' against the test schema and slows the Production database to a crawl.
I presume you know all about this, though and can't make the case to management. I hope it's not a business-critical Production database!
Anyway, your method is decent. I would advise against doing it automatically, to be honest, especially when your system is so precariously set up. But if you exist, you could use encapsulate all the steps into a script and use crontab to automate the process. I, personally, wouldn't use DBMS_SCHEDULER as you have to be careful with priorities and workload sometimes (at least in my experience) and you might end up having your export/import clash with other jobs in the system if you don't pay attention.
Here are the steps I would use:
Create a 'create user' script for the test schema based on dynamic SQL. That way you can be sure you have all the grants necessary for the user, in case things change.
Drop the test user (use EXTRA caution and be defensive when coding this part!)
Export the schema using FLASHBACK_SCN to ensure you have a consistent export
Run your 'create user' script to create the test user
Import the schema with a REMAP_SCHEMA option (use EXTREME caution with this!!!!)
Compile invalid objects
Compare objects and exclude any recycle_bin objects. Send an email alert if the object counts are different.
Compare invalid objects. Any objects which aren't invalid in Production should be flagged up if they're invalid in test.
Again, it's absolute insanity to have a test schema in a Production database. You absolutely must insist on addressing that with management.

T61P: Do I have the Nvidia Bug with 0825a2 production date 25th week 2008?

Hi.
I have a T61p with the following production date of NVIDIA chip: 0825a2
That means 25th week of 2008.
Do I have the Nvidia bug?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

The short answer is probably No.
It's believed that there were many factories and/or production lines making the chips with the "improved" design produced concurrent with the old one for a period of time, however if your laptop was produced in 08/08 and your gpu in 0825, you're good. If your laptops production date is prior to 08/08 then you will have no way of knowing for sure.
