Primavera sdk tables

We are able to do in P6 version 7
- read the project info from the backend database directly eg. the start date of a task from the table 'task'
However,
- the 'task' table does not have fields like SPI, scheduled percentage complete etc.
- the SDK documentation shows many fields including these in the table 'task'
Help requested
- how to read the values like SPI etc directly from an external application
- we would like to do so with or without using SDK
- In any case, how does one use the SDK from say Visual studio
best wishes

Things like SPI, scheduled percent complete, etc are calculated fields and thus not stored in the database.
You will need to use an integration tool such as the SDK, API or Web Services to get that information.
As for how to use something like Visual Studio, you need only supply the SDK ODBC connection information in the code to establish the connection to the SDK.
You can find code examples for MS Access, Visual Basic / ADO and Java in the Programmers Guide that is installed with the SDK so I would start there.
The default location on windows is: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Primavera Common\PMSDK\Doc\Programmer's Guide.htm
A small example from the guide on Visual Basic:
‘1) create ADO connection object
Set SDK = New ADODB.Connection
‘2) establish connection
Call SDK.Open(<System Data Source Name>, <username>, <password>)

Want to connect to Primavera SDK

Hi,
In my sceniro i want to connect to PRIMAVERA SDK software.Any one have any idea about the driver to connect to primavera SDK.

JDBC connects to databases. It does not connect to database utilities.
The documentation for that SDK makes it quite clear, actually in the first two paragraphs, that one uses ODBC to connect to the database itself.
So you use the jdbc odbc bridge or you find another ODBC driver for java that does the same thing.

Primavera sdk

I'm using primavera sdk to connect to the pmdb database and select the fields I need. My select statement works but the where condition doesn’t work.
For example:
SELECT task_name from TASK WHERE task_id = 31773
Or any similar command Doesn’t return any result set. But this select commands without 'where' work and return the result. what is the problem?
Any help is appreciated.

Primavera 8.3 SDK XLS

Hi
I have tried Primavera SDK xls tool recently. One of my laptop is running on SQL Server 05 with 64 Bit OS. While my another laptop is running on Oracle XE DB with 64 bit OS as well.
The problem i faced is, SDK XLS files worked prefect on my pc which runs on sql server 05 database. But my another Laptop with Oracle XE database faced issues running the SDK XLS files. None of the files responded and Error shown.
Could any experts suggest what could be the cause of this SDK XLS failure? Is there any system or database pre-requisite for this SDK XLS to establish successful connection with primavera?
Thanks and Regards

Thank you

Hello,
I'm not familiar with Primavera P6 and Access. May be you should post the question in the
Oracle Primavera forum.
The following thread is about similar issue, you can try to use primavera SDK provider or ODBC connection:

Stored procedures in PV database

I want to create PL/SQL stored procedures in Primavera database(Oracle 8.1.7) using JDBC ODBC bridge driver which further uses system dsn PrimaveraSDK_PE(Installed by standard Primavera client).
Whenever i try creating it, i get an error message saying syntax error near word procedure.
Same error occurs when i try creating a table.
Following are my connection parameters:
odbcURL = "jdbc:odbc:PrimaveraSDK_PE"
Class.forName("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver");
          con1 = DriverManager.getConnection(odbcURL, "admin", "admin");
I can create the procedures using Oracle OCI driver but using that i do not have access to all fields..so errors says..invalid column.
following are connection parameters:
String driverName = "oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver";
     Class.forName(driverName);
          con = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:oracle:oci8:@sapxi","privuser","privuser");
Since I cannot see all the fields of database through PL/SQL, I think this approach would not work. To see all the fields of database I must access it using DSN ONLY!!! Even the administrative login is not been able to show me all the fields.This is the way they have designed it....
So whats wrong in creating the stored procedures in oracle database using JDBC ODBC bridge driver using system DSN????????
Please help

Thanks for your reply!!!
Here is the code!
import java.sql.*;
import java.util.*;
import java.text.*;
class Try

               throws SQLException, ClassNotFoundException
          Connection con1 = null;
          Class.forName("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver");
          con1 = DriverManager.getConnection(odbcURL, "admin", "admin");
          return con1;
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception
          try
          Connection con = getConnection();
     String actionQuery = new StringBuffer( "select wbs_id, wbs_concat_name , wbs_short_name , wbs_name from projwbs where wbs_id = 3986").toString();
          ResultSet rs=null;
          PreparedStatement prepStmt = con.prepareStatement(actionQuery);
          rs = prepStmt.executeQuery();
          int wbsID = 0;
          if (rs == null )
               System.out.println("rs null");
          else
          while(rs.next())
          wbsID = rs.getInt(1);
          System.out.println("rs not null");
          System.out.print(" " + wbsID);
          System.out.print(" " + rs.getString(2));
          System.out.print(" " + rs.getString(3));
          System.out.print(" " + rs.getString(4));
          rs.close();
          prepStmt.close();
// Creating Stored Procedure....
Statement stmt = con.createStatement();
String procedure = "CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE FirstProc AS BEGIN SELECT PROJ_ID FROM PROJECT; END; ";
stmt.executeUpdate(procedure);
System.out.println("Proceudre created or updated successfully!");
stmt.close();
          catch(Exception e)
               e.printStackTrace();
and the complete stack trace!!!

First two lines show the valid output for the select query..which is absolutely correct. But the create procedure statement is throwing above mentioned errors.
Also one more important thing, I am not been able to view all the columns of table projwbs(its regarding Primavera SDK) through SQL Plus having administrative rights.
But I can access all the fields using jdbc odbc bridge driver in Java.
Is there any specific security or access control????
so that users would able to access specific columns through JDBC only and not through SQL Plus.
Please help!!!

OIM API - Error while retrieving Process form child data

Hi,
I need to read all the child data in a process form.I wrote a piece of code and called it from process task adapter.The values are not getting retrieved and i am getting the error
<tcFormInstanceOperationsBean/isProcessFormChildDataDataUnique: no PRF isKey set up for sdk:203>
When i tested the same code from a standalone cliet,it is working.
Any idea what I am doing wrong here?.Thanks

<tcFormInstanceOperationsBean/isProcessFormChildDataDataUnique: no PRF isKey set up for sdk:203>
This reads: there is no record in the Reconciliation Mapping table (PRF) for child Form (SDK table, key 203) containing the name of the column in the child form which refers the record in the parent Form.
The failed SQL query is as follows:
select prf_columnname from prf where sdk_key=203 and prf_iskey='1'
Probably you've passed the wrong child form Form?

The AD User process form is visible in the admin console but I do not know why it is not showing up in the design console.

Import Activity Code Values

I need to create a long list of activity code values. I'm looking for a work-around to avoid typing them in. There doesn't seem to be an option to import them, but when I import a file, activity codes are created. So maybe I accomplish this by importing codes via excel? Does anyone know how to make that work?

hi. you need the Primavera SDK component installed and "Dictionary xx" (a macro-enabled MSExcel file specific to your Primavera version schema) to read from/write to the database. best of luck,
