Master Data Service export data on-demand

Hi folks,
Background: In my current company the business users maintain a huge quantity of master data using
excel. Then a series of SSIS jobs are edited and manually executed.
Goal: the challenge is to replace this process using MDS. One of the requested features is the possibility for the users to edit or insert new master data using the Web UI or the Excel Add-in and when they are done perform a merge of the master
data in the target, in this case in the reporting DB.
Have anyone of you faced a similar situation?
The perfect solution for me is something like trigger the execution of a SSIS package to export the data from the subscription views to the reporting DB after the business
rules are apply to a specific entity.
Any comment or suggestion will be appreciated.
Kind Regards,
Paul

You can trigger an SSIS package execution in a
Custom Workflow.
The simplest way is probably to create a SQL Agent job for your package and then call
sp_start_job from your external workflow code.

Has anyone had issues with Administration\Data Import/Export\Data Import???

Has anyone had issues with Administration\Data Import/Export\Data Import???
I have a client who has recently upgraded from V2007 to V8.81. They were succesfuly using this standard function to import supplier prices to their master price list, but now it has failed?
I have looked at the file they are importing and it appears to be fine.
On closer inspection, it did contain approx 46,000 entries, so I took the first 1,000 and created a test file, which imported fine.
The only issue I found was Speed, with the test file of 1,000 records taking about 30 Mins to import. This appeared to get slower and slower the further through the file it got!
Based on this, I have estimated that the whole file would takle about 13 hours to import. The client say that when they used to run it on version 2007 it was far quicker?
In practice, it does appear to run, but the speed is the issue. Having said this, I set the whole file to run last night (over night)and this morning it had appeared to hang after about 2,307 rows, with nothing else being updated.
Has anyone any ideas or is aware of performance issues like this?
Thanks,
Ian

Always an option, but would you give your clients access to this tool?
Not sure really.
I have uploaded a copy of their database onto my test system and run the same routine. Its equally as SLOW
I can't gauage if its an issue with 8.81 that 2007 didn't have, as I only have the client's word on it, however I have no reason to disbelieve them.
Kind regards,
Ian

Data Services vs Data Insight

Hello SDN Members,
I'm having difficulties understanding the differences between "Data Services" and "Data Insight".
I google it but still want to see more response about them to propose for a POC kind of work.
Read guides about both not completely satisfied.
Sam

Sam
With Data Services - you can install Data Quality and Data Integrator (they are merged within the Data Services installation - provided you have the correct keys.).
Data Insight is a seperate installation that is basically a full blown profiling tool that also works with Data Quality. The coolest thing about Data Insight are the reports you can build on top of Data Quality - namely a Truth Query. the truth query uses components of Data Quality (Mainly the Address Engine and Address dictionaries) to give you an accurate profile or 'truth' about you addresses. It can give you the number of good addresses, bad addresses, fixable addresses with Data quality, and unfixable addresses with data quality. It can also determine potential duplicate addresses as well. these statistics are EXTREMELY helpful when doing a data migration or if you merely want to cleanse your data.
If you do not have Data Insight, but you do have data quality - you can do a basic dataflow to cleanse addresses in DQ and then run the Data Quality reports within the Management console in Data Services.

Could not activate cellular data network. You are not subscribed to a cellular data service"
"Cellular Data Plan Usage…There is no data remaining on your current plan. Would you like to add more data now?"what im going to do whit this problem??

I have done that and it is definitely on. My husband has the exact same phone and I upgraded his IOS at the same time, but this problem is not happening to his phone (we are also on the same plan, so our service should be the same). Our settings appear to be identical and my phone is showing the 3G symbol at the top, so I can't understand why it won't access the network.
I've turned it on and off twice and have reset all settings with my iTunes account, but it still isn't working.
I'm not a complete idiot with this sort of stuff - I have tried all the obvious things.

Flex data services and data managment.

Hi!
I have a question about data services with data managment enabled in Adobe Flex Builder 4. The issue is more theoretical than practical.
When I need to remove an item from the DataProvider I use the delete method of autogenerated service, but when I need to add or update item in DataProvider, I use methods of DataProvider ArrayCollection directly (addItem ...). When I try to remove item from the DataProvider with removeAt method, no changes made to database after commit. Why and how this stuff works?
P.S. Sorry for my bad English, I use Google transltate.

Thanks for the reply. Yes, I did compile all the Java and it
works OK with a simple Java program. It just will not work in a
Flex application.
The java classes are:
RRA:
package blah.myPackage;
import java.util.List;
import java.util.Collection;
import flex.data.DataSyncException;
import flex.data.assemblers.AbstractAssembler;
class RRA extends AbstractAssembler
public Collection fill( List fillParameters )
RRS service = new RRS();
return service.getSome();
RRS:
package blah.myPackage;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;
import java.sql.*;
import flex.EORS.*;
class RRS
public List getSome()
ArrayList list = new ArrayList();
String str = "bob";
RR rr = new RR(str);
list.add(rr);
return list;
RR:
package blah.myPackage;
class RR
private String name;
public RR() { }
public RR(String name)
this.name = name;
public String getName()
return this.name;
public void setName(String name)
this.name = name;
I started with something that retrieved data from a database
but watered it down just to try and get some kind of communication
between Flex and Java.

Data Services and Data Quality Recommnded Install process

Hi Experts,
I have a few questions. We have some groups that have requested Data Quality be implemented along with another request for Data Services to be implemented. I've seen the requested for Data Services to be installed on the desktop, but from what I've read, it appears to be best to install this on the server side to allow for more of a central benefit to all.
My questions are:
1. Can Data Services (Server) install X.1 3.2 be installed on the same server as X.I 3.1 SP3 Enterprise?
2. Is the Data Services (CLIENT) Version dependent on if the Data Services (Server) install is completed? Basically can the u201CData Services Designeru201D be used without the Server install?
3. Do we require a new License key for this or can I use the Enterprise Server license key?
4. At this time we are not using this to move data in and out of SAP, just using this to read data that is coming from SAP.
From what I read, DATA Services comes with the SAP BusinessObjects Data Integrator or SAP BusinessObjects Data Quality Management solutions. Right now it's seems we dont have a need for the SAP Connection supplement, but definetly something we would implement in the near future. What would be the recommended architecture? A new Server with tomcat and cmc (seperate from our current BOBJ Enterprise servers)? or can DataServices be installed on the same?
Thank you,
Teresa

Hi Teresa.
Hope you are referring to BOE 3.1 (Business Objects Enterprise) and BODS (Business Objects Data Services) installation on the same server machine.
Am not an expert on BODS installation.
But this is my observation :
We had recently tested on a test machine BOE BOXI 3.1 SP3 (full build) installation before upgrade of our BOE system.
We also have BODS in our environment.
Which we also wanted to check whether we could keep on the same server.
So on this test machine, which already has BOXI 3.1 SP3 build, when i installed BODS server installation,
what we observed was that,
all the menus of BOE went away
and only menus of BODS were seen.
May be BODS installation overwrites/ or uninstalls BOE, if it already exists ?
I dont know. Though i could not fine any documentation, saying that we cannot have BODS and BOE on the same server machine. But this is what we observed.
So we have kept BODS and BOE on 2 different machines running independently and we do not see any problem.
Cheers

2D decode vs. form data integration.export data performance

Hello
We have 2D forms that we accept in printed format or via electronic submission. When they are printed we use the Decode to extract the data before processing. When we get them back electronically, instead of using the Decode we use the formDataIntegration.Export data call. We have mapped a xsd to the form to facilitate this. An advantage of using the export data call is that we dont have to deal with print issues such as smudged barcodes, bleeding ink, thin paper, etc..
BUT im wondering performance wise is one better than the other?
A scanned form is 40kb while our electronic form is 400 kb (mainly because we only scan the barcoded page).
Is 1 more CPU intensive? Does 1 require more RAM and other system resources than the other?
Are the both multithreaded or single threaded?
I ask because we currently have a 70/30 split of scans/electronic submissions but because we will be outsourcing this and our pilot is showing a 99/1 split (scans/electronic).

Difference between Data Integrator, Data Services, Federator & Data Manage

Hi,
What is the difference between each of the following components of SAP Business Object?
Data Integrator
Date Services
Data Federator
Data Management
Do these not do the data integration (ETL)? Is so, why a Data Integrator is a must for Rapid Mart not any of the other listed above?

Thanks for the to-the-point response. It was really helpful. Isn't SAP BusinessObjects Data Federator is also a kind of integrator? The following link mentions "SAP BusinessObjects Data Federator can help you rapidly integrate data in real-time"
http://www.sap.com/solutions/sapbusinessobjects/information-management/data-integration/datafederator/index.epx
Or if I put it differently: Data Federator is used when physical integration is not required, and provides the functionality to integrate data virtually in memory.
Please correct me, if I am not.

Data management - Export Data on a text file and work on Excel/Acces

Hello,
When i use the Data Export tool in order to retreive all Accounts data, the CRM creates a txt file with more than 255 columns (number of record type by account). Then I can't import them in a new Access database because Access import tool do not accepts too many columns. So, i try to open it in Excel by import text file. However, some Accounts have a comment in a large text field and, when Excel converted the text file, datas are shifted compared with the column headers because of this specific "comments" record type.
Is someone knows whether it's possible to reduce the number of record type exported by selecting specific ones or knows a process to import on Excel/Access which resolved this problem of position ?
Regards,
Guillaume

Guillaume, you can create a historical account report and specify the fields you want and then download to Excel. Also, if you use the export utility which provides a CSV file format with more than 255 columns, delete the columns you do not want to get it under 255 and then convert to Excel.

I click the Match Data button in the ribbon in step 21. According to the tutorial the Match Data dialog window should look like this:
However, the Match Data dialog window I have looks like this:
Am I doing something wrong? Or am using a different version of the Master Data Excel Add-in?
I use SQL Server 2012 Developer Edition version 11.0.3000. Master Data Excel Add-in 11.0.2100. Excel 2010. Both Master Data Services and Data Quality Services are installed. Integration between those is configured. I have a full Master Data ribbon containing
the Data Quality buttons, which indicates DQS integration is configured.

Hi Arjen,
I seem to be having the same issue i.e the Match
Data dialog window that I have looks like the one you show
I am using:

Don't know if you got anyhere with the issue recently.?
I'll keep digging.
Thanks, Martin

Extracting Data from SAP ERP using BODI/Data Services 4.0

HI,
I am trying to extract data from SAP ERP via SAP extractors using BODI/Data Services 4.0.
I do not have my own ERP system so I am renting remote access from one of the many available on the internet.
I am able to connect BODI to the ERP system and import the extractors metadata.
The problem I am experiencing is that when I run job to extract the data I get the following error:
Vendor-supplied function module <Z_AW_RFC_READ_EXTRACTOR> not found. Ensure that you can execute the function module in SAP via transaction /nSE37.
How do I create the function? Or is the function a SAP standard function?
SAP ERP system being used is: ECC6 EHP4
User has SAP FULL and DEVELOPER authorizations.
Any assistance would be appreciated.

You might have better luck in the (somewhat misnamed) [Data Integration and Data Quality Management|Data Services and Data Quality; forum:
This forum is dedicated to topics related to SAP BusinessObjects Data Services (Data Integrator, Data Quality Management, Text Data Processing), SAP BusinessObjects Information Steward (Metadata Management, Data Insight), SAP BusinessObjects Rapid Marts and SAP BusinessObjects Data Federator.
