Primavera P6 R82 Integration API - EPS getSummaryTotalCostVariance Issue

Hi!
We have recently upgraded our EPPM instance from R80 to R82 and now experiencing strange issues with getting summary total cost variance on the EPS level through the Integration API: it returns null value.
We upgraded our app with the new client library and included all the necessary fields during loading of the EPS and all the other fields are returned in a proper way, except this one. More than that, functions getSummaryActualTotalCost and getSummaryBaselineTotalCost also return null.
Has anyone faced the same problems and what is the solution?

No solution but i just check the web services and it is also returning null.

Primavera P6 Analytics and Primavera Integration API

Hi,
I am running the runetl.sh script, and getting an error. Here's the excerpt:
transform [INFO] (Message) - === Step 1, Part 1 ====================================================
transform [INFO] (Message) - === Run the ETL calculation process (StartETLJava)

Do I need to install Primavera P6 Integration API on the machine where Primavera P6 Project Management is installed?
Thanks,
Jenny

Unfortunately, the complete log is way too long (I'd need to chop it up into 5 or 6 posts, at least). Instead, here's the relevant section from the log file:

Primavera Integration API and retrieving fields

Hello,
I am trying out Integration API with Primavera P6, Release 7. So far it looks straight forward and I am able to retrieve most of the field values from project object and activity object but I am having hard time figuring out how to retrieve the following two that I can see in Primavera UI. I do not see any straight forward method on either project or activity to get these.
I would appreciate, any help from experts here. Please see attached screen shot for reference.
1. Global Responsibility
2. Original Duration

Original Duration is Planned Duration.
Note: The total working time from the activity planned start date to the planned finish date. The planned working time is computed using the activity's calendar. This field is named OriginalDuration in Primavera's Engineering & Construction and Maintenance & Turnaround solutions.
Global Responsibility looks like an Activity Code.
V/r,
Gene

P6 r8 Integration API issue

Hello all,
I want to update Physical percent complete of an activity using the integration api. To do that I am setting
Task status to "IN_PROGRESS"
Percent Complete Type to "PHYSICAL"
Physical Percent Complete to 20%
Code snippet
a.setPercentCompleteType(PercentCompleteType.PHYSICAL);
a.setStatus(ActivityStatus.IN_PROGRESS);
a.setPhysicalPercentComplete(new Percent(0.20);
However the code does not update the activity physical percent complete. Has any one used Integration API to update Physical percent complete for an activity?
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Sachin

I highly doubt that, and have heard nothing about that whatsoever.
The SDK is still supported and has been around over a decade, I don't think it's going anywhere.

Integration API method to get display name

Is there a method in Integration API to get display name of columns.
I want a method like getDisplayName(string fieldName) returns the name displayed on Primavera UI.

Hi Onkar,
not sure if you already testet it like that, but as far as I know the full username of an AD user is displayed just the way it is, for an enterprise user.
Have you checked, if the full name is filled with AD information?
If not, you might check your settings in the CMC -> "Authentication" -> "Windows AD" -> "Import Full Name and Email Address"
I can not check it with our test system, cause our user names are identical to our full names.
But it might give you a hint!
Regards
Jan

P6 R8.2 Integration API

Hi,
I'm trying to use integration API on P6 R8.2, I have installed P6 R8.2 with Oracle XE, when I'm trying to use integration API I just get "Unable to get database instances". Do I have to install weblogic? or Do I miss a configuration?

Maybe a bit late, but for others running into this problem, this is in the Oracle Knowledge base:
The P6 R8.1 and R8.2 Integration APIs are not designed to work with P6 R8.1 and R8.2 Professional databases, but they can be patched to do so by following these instructions:
Install P6 Professional R8.1 or R8.2
Download, extract and install the R8.1 or R8.2 Integration API but do not run the database configuration wizard
Copy the integration jar file from the P6 Professional installed folder to the API installed folder. For example, copy intgserver.jar from “C:\Program Files\Oracle\Primavera P6\P6 Professional\Pro\Java\lib” to: “C:\P6IntegrationAPI_1\lib”
Run database configuration as Administrator by navigating to Start -> Programs -> Oracle – Primavera P6 -> Primavera P6 API -> Database Configuration
(Optional) Run API Demo by navigating to Start -> Programs -> Oracle – Primavera P6 -> Primavera P6 API -> Demo -> General Demo

I am getting "Fatal Error: null" when connection to P6v8.3.2 DB using P6 Integration API

I am getting "Fatal Error: null" when connection to P6v8.3.2 DB using P6 Integration API.
I can connect via P6 client using admin account but cannot connect using P6 API. If I provide invalid credentials it says that the credentials are incorrect. When correct credentials are provided, it comes up with the above error.
Stacktrace is atteched.
Please assist.
Thanks
Sunil

Hi Sunil,
In the absence of sample code it is difficult to identify the cause. If that is not possible, you can try logging SR with Oracle support.

Primavera - SAP Interface/ integration

Hi,
I Need some information and help related to Primavera - SAP Interface/ integration.
1. what are the Prerequisites?
2. How it works - means how data will get transferred from primaver to SAP?
3. whether this transferr is Direct or some third party tool required. if yes then may know the options?
4. How much it cost approximate? any option to transfer data without any third party tool?
5. any documents if you are having related to this please do send on same Id
Venkatesh

Dear Venkatesh,
I had developed and deployed the SAP PS - Primavera Interface in one of my projects. We had developed it using an ABAP program. I hope i answer all your questions to your satisfaction.
1. what are the Prerequisites?
I dont think there is any need for some major prerequisites other than the version of the Primavera software you are using. In our case we had used Primavera version P6. Find out from your business owner as to what all data he needs to upload or download using this interface. You can modify your ABAP program likewise.
2. How it works - means how data will get transferred from primaver to SAP?
a) The data between project structures will be mapped one to one basis. Ex. Project in SAP PS is mapped to Project in Primavera, WBS Elements in SAP PS will be mapped to WBS in Primavera, and Activity data in SAP PS is mapped as Activities in Primavera.
b) Frequency of data transfer will be weekly or Monthly. Every time data is exported from SAP PS to Primavera, new project will be created in Primavera.
c) Data will be transferred from SAP PS to Primavera in Batch mode and with manual intervention.
d) Data will be transferred from SAP PS in Comma Separated (.CSV) File format.
e) Primavera users will access MS-Excel interface to import data from CSV file in Primavera. MS-Excel will have a Macro written in Visual Basic Application (VBA) which will be initiated by user for data transfer.
f) Primavera Software Development Kit (SDK) will be used for transferring data in Primavera.
3. whether this transferr is Direct or some third party tool required. if yes then may know the options?
Hope the above mentioned points answer this question.
4. How much it cost approximate? any option to transfer data without any third party tool?
I may not be able to comment on the cost part since this interface was internally developed by our team. This interface is successfully being used by our organization as a reusable component in various projects, thus reducing the efforts considerably.

Download attachment binary via integration API?

I've been using the CMS integration API to do everything I've needed to do. But I cannot figure out how to download the binary of an attachment. I can figure out how to get all the attachment info associated with a CMS document, but I cannot figure out how to download the binary of the attachment itself. Is this possible?
I'm currently integration with CMS version 13.
Thank you very much,
Billy McCafferty

Hello Billy,
I believe that the API can only be used to add references to files that already exist in a specific location and the API cannot be used to add files to or download files from the file server.
Hope this helps.

Is there a Business Objects Data Integrator API / SDK to "execute" DI jobs?

Hello,
I am searching for a Business Objects Data Integrator API / SDK that can be used to remotely execute BOBJ DI jobs (like in scheduling BOBJ XI docs).
I found AdapterSDK from BOBJ DI but this is used to create adapters usable with DI (for various sources and targets). I am interested only in executing an already created job...
Thank you in advance,
Adrian Mitrica

You'll probably be better off posting here:
[SAP Community Network Forums » Enterprise Information Management » Data Integration and Quality Management|
I'm just going by the description of the forum but that looks better than this one(?):
This forum is dedicated to topics related to Data Integration (Data Integrator, Data Federator, Text Analysis for Data Integrator, Rapid Marts, and Integration for PeopleSoft Enterprise), Data Quality (Data Quality and Data Insight), and Metadata Management.
I'd move your thread but I do not have the rights to do this move...
Good luck,

P6 v7 Integration API

Has anyone heard of if P6 v7 Integration API is going to be desupported after the introduction of web service some time back. Is there anyone from Oracle support or sales team who can comment on this?
Regards,

I highly doubt that, and have heard nothing about that whatsoever.
The SDK is still supported and has been around over a decade, I don't think it's going anywhere.

EAP Peer Method API & Windows 8 issue

We're using EAP Peer Method API in our project. Everything
works fine on Vista and Windows 7 but Windows 8 is giving us some troubles.
Our project uses native Windows WLAN API to start connection to 802.1x protected WiFi AP. For authentication we're using our implementation of EAP method (registered using regsvr32).
Regardless of OS, setting (proper) user credentials before starting connection will result in successful connection. Problem happens when user credentials are either not set or are wrong (like wrong password).
On Vista/Win7, you'd get a popup balloon, like on picture below, and clicking it would make EAP Host call one of functions in our EAP dll, allowing us to display dialog asking user for credentials. But on Win8, there is no popup balloon and our function doesn't
get called. That locks us out of certain usage scenarios we've supported thus far.
Function that I mentioned is 'EapPeerInvokeIdentityUI'
and it is being called on Vista/Win7.
If you need more detailed info, I'll list function
our EAP dll exports:
   DllRegisterServer
   DllUnregisterServer
   EapPeerFreeErrorMemory
   EapPeerGetInfo
   EapPeerInvokeConfigUI
   EapPeerConfigXml2Blob
   EapPeerCredentialsXml2Blob
   EapPeerConfigBlob2Xml
   EapPeerInvokeInteractiveUI
   EapPeerInvokeIdentityUI
   EapPeerFreeMemory
   EapPeerQueryCredentialInputFields
   EapPeerQueryUserBlobFromCredentialInputFields
   EapPeerQueryInteractiveUIInputFields
   EapPeerQueryUIBlobFromInteractiveUIInputFields
We've been doing some research and noticed that Win8's native EAP methods do show dialog to user when password is wrong, therefore we looked into related dll's exported functions and found one that seem interesting - 'EapPeerGetIdentityPageGuid'. We didn't
find any documentation on that function though, not even function signature, so we couldn't do much with it but we suspect it might be called instead of 'EapPeerInvokeIdentityUI' on Windows 8. If we guessed right, some information about 'EapPeerGetIdentityPageGuid'
and related functions would be great, otherwise any help about new Windows 8 behavior would be appreciated.

Hi Ethann,
Just a reminder for the above query.
Looks like this is the limitation in Windows 8 where the 802.1x security prompts are integrated into network pane. Here is the link which gives a brief info on changes from win 7 to 8.
http://www.windowsnetworking.com/articles-tutorials/wireless-networking/wireless-changes-windows-81-and-server-2012-r2.html
We are planning to implement a minimal supplicant which takes care of 802.1x authentication. So that we have full control on authentication. Is this
the only possible way?
Hope you have resolved this issue. Your help will reduce our dev effort. Please guide me to troubleshoot this issue.
Thanks

New id integration with ipad 2 issues

I recently changed my apple id. Had issues integrating new id with iphone 5 and ipad 2. Got advice to correct and it worked on the iphone, but not on ipad. Im unable to access Appstore or itunes. Old user id still pops up. Icloud settings on ipad are set to my new id.

What id shows in Settings > iTunes & App Store on your iPad ? If it's wrong then tap on it and log out of your account and then log back in with the updated version of your account.
If you created a new account as opposed to your existing account, then your existing downloads will remain tied to your old account, so only that old id can potentially redownload its past purchases and/or download updates to its apps.

SAP Sourcing 7.0 integration with SAP ERP - issue with SAP PI

Hi All,
We are integrating SAP Sourcing 7.0 with SAP ERP 6.0 with SAP PI 7.1 in middle. So the Sourcing will talk to PI and this intern will talk to ERP. Sourcing is on oracle 11g where as PI and ERP are on SQL 2008. All these 3 are on windows 2003 x64.
We are following the "Configuration Guide Integration of SAP ERP and SAP Sourcing 7.0" provided by SAP.
We have successfully configured Sourcing and PI systems as pe the document. In Sourcing, by using background jobs we are able to successfully generate files in "export" folder which is part of FTP directory.
However the issue is with PI, we configured the "configuration scenerio" in Integration builder and point all channels to the FTP folder in Sourcing. But PI is not picking up these files.
Is there any way to trigger this in PI system. Or do we need to do anything in sourcing itself.
Regards,
Siva.

Hello Siva,
I am thinking that you may need to deploy FTP adapter in PI to get this process work fine but not sure.
Let's see what other experts suggest.
Thanks,
Siva Kumar
