Need to refresh the data

Hi
I am using Oracle8i Enterprise Edition Release 8.1.7.4.0 - Production
I need to refresh the data in test box with the production database.
I dont have the dblink. Please advise me the fastest method to refresh the data in test server.
Regards,
Ravi

What do you mean by "I dont have the dblink" ? That you do not have access to the database ? OR that you do not have access to documentation on how to refresh a database ?
If you need to refresh a schema alone, you could use Export-Import. If you need to refresh the whole database, I would advice using Backup and Restore -- either using scripted backups or RMAN.
Note : If the application has setup tables that store database name, node name, port number etc, you will need to update those tables in the refreshed database (else they will still point to the production database !).
You can access the 8.1.7 documentation from http://tahiti.oracle.com

How to refresh the data in published HTML?

Hi All,
I have created a Process Engineering diagram, whcih represents flow of material from Equipment to another equipment.
I have binded the diagram to data from the data base and saved/published as HTML to view it in browser. So far it is fine.
But the next step is: What happens when the data changes in the data base? The generated HTML became just a static diagram which is of not much use. If i want to refresh the data, then I need to publish again !!
Is there a way to make service calls from HTML and update the data dynamically in HTML display?
Note: I am using VISIO 2013 Professional edition
Venkat

Hi,
If we had saved/published Visiso drawing as HTML file, we could not refresh the data source to control the HTML data directly. We need to re-publish, I think you do not want to do it.
Thus, I recommend you use JavaScript or coding to invoke and refresh the background database when you modified it.
The following artile may also help you:

If you have any question related to Programming/Code, post in HTML forums for further assistance.

Problem in refreshing the data in OBIEE answers?

Hi,
My report doesn't show the latest data in the database. I tried restarting my BI server and Presentation server also. But it is still showing the old data only. But in Admin tool im able to view the latest data. What could be the reason for this? Wont the refresh button given at the bottom of the report refresh the data?
Thanks,
Karthick

Hi,
If you want to use the cache and you have a regular load of data into your source for OBIEE, then you just need to ensure that the cache is cleared after your load. There is an ODBC command which will clear it:
Call SAPurgeAllCache();
You can put this in a sql file and then call it from a .cmd file:
nqcmd -d "AnalyticsWeb" -u Administrator -p <password> -s D:\OracleBI\server\Scripts\Common\purge_cache.sql -o D:\OracleBI\server\Scripts\Common\purge_cache.out
When you run this .cmd file it will clear the cache, this could then be caled from another tool, i.e. an Informatica workflow. All above is based on using a windows machine to connect and run the command.
If your data is changing all the time and you just don't want caching on then just turn it off in nqsconfig.ini, change:
ENABLE = YES;
To
ENABLE = No;
in the cache section.

Matt

Refreshing the Data Source View in Analysis Services

I have added columns to the SQL Database table that is used as a dimension in an Analysis Services Cube. The new columns will be used as additional Property Fields for the dimension. When I attempted to refresh the Data Source view so that the additional columns are present, I am given the following error:
System.Data
Property not accessible because 'Parent Columns and Child Columns don't have type-matching columns'
I have done nothing to the columns used for the parent of child and the error message provides nothing to gon on. Does anyone have any ideas on this?
Gary

Olga,
Thanks for your response. I will try and answer your questions
1) I have not tried removing the columns yet. I will try that this afternoon but have limited hope. The two columns I added are simple text columns that will be used as attributes in the dimension. I have made no change to the parent or child columns.
2) The table I modified is the source table for a parent-child dimension.
3) The reference to the "check list" does not take me to any kind of check list.
4) The parent-child dimensions I am trying to modify have been in use for months and the parent and child columns do have the dame data types.
5) I have also check the data types between the dimension table and the fact table. they use the same data types (small int).
6) I have not made a collection for the parent key, it is a single column. The remainder of your last paragraph is not clear to me. Can you give me an example.
I am fairly inexperienced with Analysis Services, please talk slow and use small words :-)
Thanks again for your help!

Problem in refreshing the data in Xcelsius

Hi,
I have added a refresh button in my dashboard to refresh the data from the BOE , but ones i click that button it ask for user authentication and ones i enter that and click ok nothing happens , the data is not getting refreshed.
In second case i made my data connection as refresh on load so as soon i launch my dashboard it ask for user authentication and after entering that details nothing happens and i am not able to see the data and even if i enter wrong details in the pop up window it does not gives any error message for wrong credentials.
Earlier i was getting the error like #2032 , #2017 so i maintained the crossdomail.xml file in web server it was resolved.
But i am not able to refresh the data nor i am getting any error message kindly suggest !!
Regards,
Mishra,Vibhav

Dear Ingo,
Thanks for replying.
Step 1 : I have used a excel sheet using the live office connection and using the existing CR report from the BOE.
Step 2 : Then i have published that excel sheet in BOE
Step 3 : I have imported that spreadsheet in the Xcelsius and created a dashboard on top of that.
Step 4 : I have added a refresh button on the dashboard which is used to refresh the live office connection and the session URL that i have maintained is http://XXXC043A:8080/dswsbobje/services/session . i am not using the refresh on load option.
Step 4 : When i preview the dashboard with the preview button available in the Xcelsius i can see the dashboard with the existing data but ones i click the Connection refresh button a user authentication window pop up which ask for the system name user id and pwd and Authentication type . I used the Enterprise authentication for that but ones i submit the credential nothing happens even if i enter the wrong information no error message is prompted.
Thanks in advance .

Need to change the date of joining of employee

Hi All,
I have gone through some threads similar to this subject an also tried to do changes from PA41 but i am facing some problems during the procedure.
We have transferred some employees to sap system with their original date of joining and payroll was run from some other date for those employees. So i need to change the date of joining of those employees.
For example : Below is the line items of one employee from table infotype 0.
End date Start date Changed on
22.02.2009 19.02.2007 19.02.2009
31.03.2009 23.02.2009 19.02.2009
31.12.2009 01.04.2009 14.10.2009
31.12.9999 01.01.2010 21.01.2010
Payroll was run from Feb-09 onwards and i want put date of joining for this employee as 23.02.2009.
I want to know which date i need to change??...When i am trying to change the first start date i.e. 19.02.2007 to my desired start date, but it is not allowing me to do that as end date is smaller.
Please tell me how would i change the joining date of employee as 23.02.2009 ?.
Thanks.

Try this
22.02.2009 19.02.2007
31.03.2009 23.02.2009
31.12.2009 01.04.2009
31.12.9999 01.01.2010   take this record form PA30 IT0000 Over View (Shif + F8) Copy that record and change the Start date
as 2302.2010 so another record will be created
22.02.2010    01.01.2010
31.12.9999    23.02.2010
Just try and let me know

I need help proving the date tag on a photo stored in my iPhoto is from the date it was sent to my iphone/date it was imported into iphoto - and that it is NOT the date the photo was actually taken. Please help!

I need help proving the date tag on a photo stored in my iPhoto is from the date it was sent to my iphone/date it was imported into iphoto - and that it is NOT the date the photo was actually taken. I recieved a photo via text on my iphone and then I synced my iphone to my macbook and now it is in iphoto. I already know that the date on the photo per the tag that shows up on it in iphoto is NOT the date the photo was actually taken. I need article or literature or something confirming the tag is from when it was sent to the iphone and/or when it was imported. I greatly appreciate some assistance!

All I am trying to do is find something on a forum board or article etc stating that the the date showing in iphoto could be the date it was imported or synced or sent to me and not the actual date taken.
The date on the photo could be anything because you can edit the date with iPhoto or any of 100 apps, free and paid for. So, the date on the photo will prove nothing, I'm afraid.

I need to know the date of the last Monday

I need to know the date of the last Monday
If today is Monday then I need todays date
If today is Tuesday then I need yesterdays date etc....
If today is Sunday then I need to know the date 6 days ago etc....

the day() function will tell you what day of now() is as an integer: 1=Sunday 7=Saturaday.
You know that Monday is 2. The difference between today's number and Monday's number (with a little mathmatical juggling to wrap Sunday to the previous week -- I would probably just convert -1 to 6 with a simple if statement after substracting 2 from the day() value.).
Subtracting (adding a negative value) of this difference with the dateAdd() function will give you the date of that previous Monday.

Why we need to Stage the Data in DSO/ODS before InfoCube?

Hi
I have one question related to BW modeling.
1. Why we need to stage the data in DSO/ODS before loading into InfoCube?
Thanks
Raj

There are multiple reasons:
one, some extractors specially finance send you data after image, in that case you can only do overwrite in dso not in cube.. cube is always addition. Second, you keep detail data in DSO and more summarized data in the cube and write a jump query if you need detail data. This is more for performance reason. Third, in some cases you can generate delta within dso, so dso is very important here. Forth, in dso you always store data as it comes from the source, you do your data massaging in the next layer. If you get some issues in the data, you don't need to go and get the data from the source, but from your dso. I know long time ago, space is issue and there was no need to store data in multiple layers, but now space is not issue so the benefite we are getting by storing the data in dso outweight the space concern.
thanks.

Need to load the data through excel for plan data through IP?

Hi all,
The user needs to load the data through the excel and click on the save button so that the data is saved in the cube through integrated planning.
The objects used are
customer, material, plant, calendarmonth sales qty, gross billing!!
Can anyone pls let me know how to do this?
Thanks

Hi,
You can use the following How to guide to load data from file into transactional cube.
If using IP :
http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/90cef248-29e0-2910-11bb-df8dece7e22c?quicklink=index&overridelayout=true
Can also Refer to Marc's Blog:
/people/marc.bernard/blog/2007/11/25/how-to-load-a-file-into-sap-netweaver-bi-integrated-planning-part-1
If you are using bPS you can get the details in Wiki also for the same.
You can then create the hyperlink in Excel ,which user can use to upload data which can then be saved to cube using save button.

For automatic number generation you need to create number range object using tcode SNRO and then use the foolowing logic.

Need to grab the data from Web Page and send it to SAP using PI

Hello Experts,
I need to grab the exchanges rates from the below link.
http://www.cbr.ru/scripts/XML_daily.asp?date_req=09-06-2011.
This link returns an XML . I need to get the data from this XML page and post it to SAP ECC using PI.
My requirement is that, process should start from the ECC and grabs the data from the web page which gives you the XML and post this data into ECC using PI. We have a RFC written in ECC side to post the data in ECC.
Please help me to identify the adaptor's needed and what should I need to do to initiate the process from ECC.
Would it be a Async or Sync process ?
I would really appreciate the inputs.
Thanks.
Gaurav.

Hi,
Any particular reason that you want to go for a sync process as then you would need to either use a BPM (RFC to BPM where you use sync/async bridge to get the xml file from the specified link and then send the response back to ECC) or go for a synchronous Java proxy on the receiver side which will grab the exchange rates and then map back to the RFC response structure. In this case, you can avoid the BPM.
Else, as mentioned in Michal's blog, you can break it up into 2 seperate scenarios. RFC/Proxy to File and then File to IDoc/RFC/Proxy which will get the exchange rates into ECC.
Another option can be Proxy --> PI --> ECC(IDoc/Proxy/RFC). Here you can grab the exchange rates from the link in your message mapping through a UDF.
Regards
