Pushing or Pulling data from Systems Center (SCSM & SCOM and maybe SCCM) 2012

Is there any way to publish Systems Center Data/reports via RSS or another way so that they can feed "live" data to digital signs?
I get that there are ways to create dashboards and publish to Sharepoint, but I am trying to take it up a notch, any hope for me?
Thanks,
chip

Automated process to pull data from a web page without using VS and PS.

Hello,
I'm looking at finding a solution to pull data from an external web page and creating a list. I'm looking for a NON-POWERSHELL AND NON-VISUAL STUDIO solution. I am open to using InfoPath Designer.
There exists a custom, non-SharePoint page built for us which has raw data. We've already created a custom list to match the data and now need to come up with a solution to automatically update the data. In this particular scenario, power shell and visual
studio cannot be used.
Thanks in advance.

Why would you cripple yourself and restrict PowerShell at the very least which has perfect functionality for doing exactly that.
I doubt you could use the InfoPath data sources to pull the raw data in, re-map it and save to SharePoint without resorting to some sort of coding within InfoPath.

Multiple BW Systems pulling data from one R/3

Does SAP recommend multiple SAP-BW systems to pull data from the same R/3 system?
If so then how does delta get get handled in such a scenario?

Hi Roberto,
I have a similar question.We currently have one R3 system connected to one BW system.
Now, we have to connect another BW system and start extracting data for 2LIS_03_BF and 2LIS_03_BX.
The delta loads are already happening for the existing BW system for these 2 datasources.
I intend to follow the following steps :
1) Lock all Material postings
2) Transfer data from existing Extraction queue and then the Delta Queue for the 2 Datasources
3) Delete SetUp tables
4) Fill SetUp tables (MCNB and OLI1BW)
5) Initialize Delta in new BW source system
6) Unlock Material postings
a) If I don't run the job for emptying the extraction queue, will ther be duplicate entries in the new BW system whenI run delta after Init? Which leads me to my second question, when data is transferred from extraction queue to delta queue, is it done for each target system?
b) Can this whole process disturb the existing delta flow in the existing BW system.
Thanking you in anticipation.

Is BW able to pull data from R3 by XI

Hi everybody:
I'd like to use XI to integrate BW, R3 and other system. I read serveral documents. I can only find documents with XI you can only push data into BW. Does that mean bw system is not able to pull the data through XI?
If I use bw connects R3 directly, I can connect to R3 in Source Systems easliy.
If I use XI, I find I have to reconstruct all manually. Maybe can not use any predefined things in BW.
My scenario is that bw pulls data from R3 periodically. In that case, I think direct connecting BW and R3 is better. XI is not a good way to do that, is it?
Thanks and will reward answers
Elliott

hi Sravya:
The traditional method to pull data from R3 to BW is to define a source system. Then follow the steps to establish ETL. What I need to do is to create ABAP connection in sm59. That's easy. We has already use that method to connect BW and R3. Now, I'd like to connect BW and R3 by XI. In all the document about BW and XI integration, I find the traditional method is no long used. I have to define every data structure and the connection method comes to push data into BW.
The original way is to define a data source and copy that data source to BW. I dont know whether I can create a ABAP connection between BW and R3 by XI. If I cant create that kind of connection by XI, I think the traditional way is not support by XI. So that it is a big task to connect bw and R3 by XI.
Thanks

How to pull data from a c/c++ Application

I am working on a project to instrument a product which runs on java as well as c/c++.
Is there a way to pull data from a c/c++ application to a MBean?
I am able to push the data through a custom TCP Adapter, But I could not get much help on a pull model.
Also I would like to get some pointers on instrumentation techniques / patterns.
Regards
Chandramohan

I'm not aware of any JMX out-of-the-box support for managing C++ applications with JMX or MBeans, but you can find some ideas on how this might be done in [this thread|http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=5240363] from [this very forum|http://forum.java.sun.com/forum.jspa?forumID=537&start=0].

Using ABAP DATA FLOW to pull data from APO tables

I am trying to use an ABAP Data flow to pull data from APO and receive error 150301. I can do a direct table pull and receive no error, but when I try to put it in an ABAP data data flow I get the issue. Any help would be great.

Hi
I know you "closed" this, however someone else might read it so I'll add that when you use an ABAP dataflow, logic can be pushed to ECC - table joins, filters, etc. (Which can be seen in the generated ABAP).

How to pull data from oracle GL to planning

Hi all
Can one suggest me how to pull data from oracle GL in to hyperion planning(we are using hyperion planning 9.3 with limited licence for analytic services). i guess we can use HAL ..any thing else
any help is appreciable
regards
M.V

Hi
I appreciate for your response. Yep you are exactly right it is data only, but I do have a problem these people have their licence of limited version of Essbase.
Let me give you the information of their licence agreement.
The licence for the hyperion planning- sytem9 programs includes a limited use license for both the hyperion Essbase- system 9 and hyperion Financial reporting - system 9 programs. Such limited use license means that the hyperion Essbase- system 9 and Hyperion financial reporting -system 9 programs may only be used to access data from the Hyperion planning -system 9 program.
Specifically, the hyperion essbase- system 9 program cannot be used to create Essbase cubes that do not contain data used by the Hyperion planning- system 9 program and the Aggregate storage option component of the Hyperion Essbase - system 9 program may not be used.
1) what it(licence agreement) really means - can you install Essbase, if not how can you create dimensions dynamically using planning.
2) Is it possible without Essbase as far as I know its not possible
3) are we going to face any issues with this licence.
4) Is it possibe to pull data with planning
I appreciate if any one resolve this issue

Stages when pulling data from CRM datasource?

Hi,
We are pulling data from CRM.Please explain me the steps while pulling data from CRM.

Hi,
Data from CRM to BW is divided into diiferant Data sources.
First need to find data source name.
Use the following seps
First of all, activate the CRM DSs by scenario:
1) Activate the application component hierarchy (tcode RSA9). Changes made to the application component hierarchy in the CRM system can be transferred to the BW using the "Edit Application Component Hierarchy" (SBIW - Postprocessing of DataSources).
SAP Note 434886 must be implemented in CRM 3.0 before the application component hierarchy is activated.
2) Activate the Business Content DataSources (tcode RSA5).
Select/enter the application component and choose Execute (F8).
To compare the shipped and active versions, choose the 'Select Delta' pushbutton. If there is no active version of the DataSource, it is selected automatically.
To activate the shipped version, choose the 'Transfer DataSources' pushbutton.
3) Management of the versions of the BW-Adapter metadata (tcode BWA5). All DataSources are displayed that are managed by the BW Adapter.
As in transaction RSA5 (Service API Metadata Activation), the 'Select Delta' function can be used to select the inactive DataSources or compare shipped and active versions.
You can also go directly to the screen for maintaining DataSources that are managed by the BW Adapter.
The 'Compare Version' function makes a detailed comparison of the shipped and active versions.
All BW-Adapter metadata is considered when versions are compared:
Header information (Table SMOXHEAD)
Mapping information (Table SMOXRELP)
Global selection conditions (Table SMOXGSEL)
Attribute key fields (Table SMOXAFLD)
It is depends if you want to use in BW some ready made (Business Content) data analysis models.If so, you need to find your data source in RSA5 in CRM and activate it. See this link http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/04/47a46e4e81ab4281bfb3bbd14825ca/frameset.htm to find Cube you want to analyze in BW, and Data Source connected to it.
BW CRM analysis.

CRM Extraction
Pls chk this link for Crm enhancement
Enhance standard data sources in CRM
BWA1 is for all standard crm datsource maintaince
rsa2 for generic datasource
BWA5 i think we use this Tcode after RSA5 activation additionally.
yes(incase of delta)
BWA7 do we have to use this tcode along with BWA1 for standard datasources also or else only for generic datasource.
irrespective of the type of dtasource,use it if you want to load delta(you need to delta enable the datasource here)
So we don't need to put the code as we traditionally do it for R/3 , if we just mapp the fields that would bring the data for these fields.
as i told in CRM we willwrite code in BADI in case you have done enhancement
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/library/biw/a-c/customer%20enhancements%20and%20userexits%20in%20bw%20-%20sap%20netweaver%20%20know-how%20network%20webinar.pdf
also chk this(credit goes to the writer)
CRm enhancement:
1. Enhance Extract Structure with the required fields. (Create & include an append structure to the extract structure via transaction RSA6).
2.a) Release the fields of the append for usage. ( To do this, double click on the Datasource and remove the flags in the column 'Hide Field' for all fields of Append).
2.b) If the new fields cannot be seen in the extract structure of the transaction BWA1 then change and save the datasource, and then activate it in RSA6.
3. Define your mappings in BADI (CRM_BWA_MFLOW) to fill these fields.
Goto SPRO . Follow the path ->SAP Implementation guide ->Implementation with other mySAP components ->Data transfer to the Business Information Warehouse-> Settings for the application specific datasources (CRM)->Settings for BW adapter-> Badi :BW adapter :Enhancement of datasources in messaging flow.
4. Replicate the new Datasource to BW.
5. Expand the Communication Structure in BW.
6. Maintain transfer Rules for the new Datasource.
7. Activate the trasfer rules and perform the upload.
Refer to the SAP Note 692195 for more info ......

Newbie questions regarding pulling data from hyperion planning cube w/OBIEE

Hello there,
we've recently implemented Essbase and are currently pumping it full of revenue/expense data from out source systems to calculate NOI. This data is stored in a staging table at the detail level where it is sourced into Hyperion and aggregated. We also have OBIEE 10g (plan to upgrade to 11g later this year) and we would like to connect to and report out of Essase. Our ultimate goal is to be able to report on the NOI numbers in the planning cube but have the ability to drill down to the detail level which is not stored in Essbase. We've heard it is possible, albeit not native for OBIEE 10g to do this. We've also heard that it is not best practice to use our transactional cube for this type of reporting but to actually create a second "reporting cube".
What are best practices for getting this NOI data out of Hyperion and merging it with our relational detail reporting? Can we somehow export the data from the cube and store it in a relational database? Should we clone the cube (if even possible) and configure both it and our relational source in the BI repository and setup all drill-throughs there?
Any info is GREATLY appreciated. Thank you.
Edited by: cisGuy on Sep 20, 2010 5:31 PM

i have found information on how to use ODI to extract data for the cube. What I'm really trying to find out though is best practices for reporting off summary level data in Essbase with the ability to drill-through to the detail.
We've heard reporting off the same cube that users are writing back and transacting on is bad. Do we need to make a "reporting cube" and then bring that in OBIEE and merge it with a relational source or is it better to extract the data from Essbase into flat files and join it to detail tables in our relational source?

Pulling data from table to a flat file

hi all,
Good day to all,
Is there any script which i can use for pulling data from tables to a flat file and then import that data to other DB's. Usage of db link is restricted. The db version is 10.2.0.4.
thanks,
baskar.l

Is there any script which i can use for pulling data from tables to a flat file and then import that data to other DB'sFlat file is adequate only from VARCHAR2, NUMBER, & DATA datatypes.
Other datatypes present a challenge within text file.
A more robust solution is to use export/import to move data between Oracle DBs.

Hello Jdesko,
Thank you for you prompt response. Yes, I have changed the connections variables in my dataservice ( I didn't post real values). You are right, after all I didn't make changes on the gateway.php except to add some tracking points. The one that I changed is the amf.config,ini. The application runs without any error exceptions, but don't populate the datagrid. According with the tracing is stoping just when establishing the connection to the database. Please let me know if you have any other clue. thanks

SSRS pulls data from ESSBASE cube, data not showing

Dear Experts,
We are connecting SSRS 2012 to Essbase 11.1.3 to pull data from the cube, and having some issues with some members data not showing in the query designer and report, while some have no problem. And we couldn't find a pattern on which members won't show. We are wondering if this is a known issue and if there is a way to solve the problem.
Thanks very much.
Grace

Hi ,
Check the following:-
1 Check whether you have made the joins properly.
2 Check data at multiprovider level .
3 is data available for reporting in both the cubes

Pull data from a table in HTML format from external URL into a Servlet

How do I pull data from existing website html table into a Servlet?
I will need to pull the data into a servlet. So, the servelet will need to go to the URL and get the data and save them as variables.
I know I will need an array to store the data. I just dont know how to call the URL and have the servelet search the site for the <table> </table>.
I will later use this to save to a database.
Thanks

Error while pulling data from an Oracle database. ORA-01858: a non-numeric character was found where a numeric was expected

I'm trying to pull data from an Oracle database using SSIS. When I try to select a few fields from the source table, it returns the following error message:
    [OLE DB Source [47]] Error: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_OLEDBERROR. An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80040E14.
    An OLE DB record is available. Source: "OraOLEDB" Hresult: 0x80040E14 Description: "ORA-01858: a non-numeric character was found where a numeric was expected".
    An OLE DB record is available. Source: "OraOLEDB" Hresult: 0x80004005 Description: "ORA-01858: a non-numeric character was found where a numeric was expected".
The source columns are a combination of numeric and texts, and I've also tried selecting one of them, which didn't work. I'm using the Oracle client 11.2.0.1, and it works fine with any other data sources I have connected to so far. How can I resolve this
error?

Hi H.James,
According to your description, the issue is a non-numeric character was found where a numeric was expected while pulling data from an Oracle database in SSIS.
Based on the error message, the issue should be you are comparing a number column to a non-number column in a query. Such as the query below (ConfID is a number, Sdate is a date):
where C.ConfID in (select C.Sdate
                   from Conference_C C
                   where C.Sdate < '1-July-12')
Besides, a default behavior for the Oracle OleDb Provider that change the NLS Date Format of the session to 'YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS can also cause the issue. For more details about this issue, please refer to the following blog:
