Question about Skywire Documaker - where can it pull data from ?

Does the Skywire Documaker product have an ability to pull data from a Relational Database into a form’s field? What other data sources are available to pull data, besides the extract data file (DAT), and xml file?

In response to your question about where Oracle Documaker pulls data from:
DB calls may be done as part of the document generation process to look up data. However it is not designed to maintain and open DB connection. This is also not a recommended best practice. Transall is shipped as part of the Doucmaker solution and it is designed to connect to multiple sources (including DB) and produce an input file for Documaker. Creating DB connections is considered an IT related task and does not fit in with positioning Documaker as a business user tool.

Urgent How can I pull data from Essbase into BW 3.5

Hi All,
Can anyone tell me the extraction mechanism to extract data from Essbase (Hyperion Sales cube) into BW 3.5. Is it possible to extract data using DB connect. As far as I know it cannot be used for BW 3.1C but what about 3.5. Any links or information is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Padma

Can we pull data from one cube to another cube

Hi All,
I need to pull the data for a 4 fields from an existing info cube to another cube. Can any one let me know the procedure of how to do this.
Thanks in Advacne

scenario cube1 --> cube2
1) load data into cube1
2) cube1 > export datasource > it creates the ds with 8cube1

How can I pull data from an attached excel/csv file?

I currently manage some price lists for the company I work for. They are graphical, and usually created in inDesign and then exported to pdf.
I'm looking for a way to attach our company's prices in an excel sheet, (or delimited file) and be able to pull a price into the pdf.
For example, attaching an excel file with 2 columns, SKU & Price. Then saying, if text field SKU= "APPLE" text field PRICE = "0.50". Only I don't want the user to have any inpurt options, I want to do this myself and then save a flat version to distribute in the company.
Any ideas on how this could be accomplished (if it even could be?) I've been searching for the past week.
Thank you in advance.
(I have Acrobat X Pro)

First, let me start off by saying thank you again for your help. I sincerely appreciate it.
I have placed the following code into the document-level section of the javascript editor:
var oFile = this.getDataObjectContents("Price.xls");
var strData = util.stringFromStream(oFile, "utf-8");
function ParseData( strData ){
var objCollection = {}
strData.replace(
new RegExp( "\\[(\\w+)=([^\\]]*)\\]", "gi" ),
function( $0, $1, $2 ){
objCollection[ $1 ] = $2;
return( objCollection );
// Custom Calculate script for price text field
(function () {
    // Get the value of the SKU field
    var sku = getField("SKU").valueAsString;
    // Look up the price
    var price = objCollection[sku];
    // Set the value of this field to the price if it's present,
    // otherwise blank this field
    event.value = price || "";
And I have created a field SKU, which I placed a valid SKU value into. I also created a blank field called event for the price to populate into, but I have a strong feeling that this was the wrong approach.
At any rate, I've recieved the following error in the javascript debugger:
ReferenceError: objCollection is not defined
89:Document-Level:ADBE::FileAttachmentsCompatibility
Any idea what I may be doing wrong?
Thanks again.

Oracle B2B 11g question about pulling data from remote TP sftp server

Hi,
We would like replace our custom b2b solution with oracle b2b, but without resulting much changes in remote TP side. To do that the following issues are to be resolved.
1) in the existing custom b2b, host tp is pulling data from remote TP location. How does oracle b2b pull data from remote location using sftp(AS1 1.1)? Oracle document says that by using global listening channel, we can make oracle b2b listen to the sftp server? Is that correct? Is there any sample about how to configure and test it.
2) For outbound file we would like to preserve the file name. If you use sftp for sending the file out, is it possible to preserve the filename?
3) Some incoming files which are datafiles , does not have any identification pattern. Is there any other way to identify the document type? For example from which location we are pulling the file can tell us the document type.

1) in the existing custom b2b, host tp is pulling data from remote TP location. How does oracle b2b pull data from remote location using sftp(AS1 1.1)? Oracle document says that by using global listening channel, we can make oracle b2b listen to the sftp server? Is that correct? Is there any sample about how to configure and test it. I am not sure what do you mean by AS1 1.1 but yes, SFTP is supported in Oracle B2B and if you want to poll a SFTP location, then you need to create a listening channel in Oracle B2B. For creating a listening channel, please refer -
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14571_01/integration.1111/e10229/bb_listen_chan.htm#BAJJICJJ
2) For outbound file we would like to preserve the file name. If you use sftp for sending the file out, is it possible to preserve the filename?Yes, it is possible. There is a setting "Preserve Filename" in transport protocol parameter of a SFTP channel which should be enabled for this purpose.
3) Some incoming files which are datafiles , does not have any identification pattern. Is there any other way to identify the document type? For example from which location we are pulling the file can tell us the document type. In case of FTP/FILE/SFTP, file name can be used to pass document type and revision information to Oracle B2B. Please refer "Filename format" setting on the above mentioned link.
I figured it out from another thread about how to pull the file. I configured the listening channel so that it reads from a remote server using sftpo protocol. And I have given the filename format as %FROM_PARTY%.dat. I am putting a file like TESTBC.dat. TESTBC is the name of the remote TP. B2B is reading the file but, recognizes the document tupe, but says that FromTP null. What is the solution?
Make sure that TP name is same as what you are giving in filename (cross-check for spelling). You may also try with default naming convention (do not mention anything in Filename format in listening channel configuration) - %FROM_PARTY%_%TIMESTAMP%.dat
for eg -
Acme_12345.dat

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:

What RAM do I need and where can I get it from?

Hi all,
I know this is probably a simple question, but I just want to make sure I don't mess up my computer! I have an old school DV iMac, and bought the Mac OS X upgrade not too long after it came out (which is rather a while ago now!), but couldn't install it became I don't have enough RAM. And I obviously have just put it off and off. Now I'm at uni, and want the computer to work as well as it can for my mum, because she's even worse than me when it comes to computers. So, anyway, I need RAM. What type do I need and where can I get it from fairly cheaply? And how much would you recommend I get? My friend says he knows how to put it in, so all okay there hopefully/
My computer's details:
Processor info: PowerPC G3
Machine speed: 400MHz
OS: 9.2.2
Built-in memory: 64MB
I remember being able to get more details than this from somewhere on the computer, but I can't remember where...I haven't used it for 6 months or something, and am obviously getting forgetful.
Hope someone can help. If you need to know anything else, tell me where to get the info from and I will tell you!
Cheers,
Fran

Hi,
I just bought some RAM from Crucial.
If you go to www.crucial.com/uk and follow the Crucial Memory Advisor Tool, you should be able to find the RAM for your Mac.
1 GB sticks are pretty good value at the moment (they've even gone down a few pounds since I bought mine a week ago) and if you enter this code (found it on aonther thread here) you might get a couple of pounds knocked off the total: CUSTOMPC
There's also places like Kingston & Cancom to try, as well as Misco.co.uk. But Crucial select the recommended RAM for your Mac.
Also, when you think you've found the right RAM and want to buy it, try the Apple agent chat, and double-check with them.
Hope this is useful.

Hi the question I have is. Can I put music from my IPad to my iPod?

Not directly no, you will need to sync it via your computer's iTunes. If they are iTunes purchases which are not yet on your computer's iTunes then you should be able to copy them over your computer via File > Transfer Purhcases (File > Devices > Transfer Purchases if you have iTunes on your computer)

i have macbook pro i got it from craiglist, when i was updating the oprating sestem its asking me for sestem unlocking pin? where can i get it from?

I would recommend wiping the system and reinstalling the OS for any used system. OS X does not have any "unlocking pin" of sorts so this may be from some third-party software on the system. The system does have a "firmware password" option that can be set to prevent booting to alternative boot environments (ie, external hard drives, safe mode, etc), but this will not prevent system updating.

UNIQUE Problem in pulling DATA from DATA base table to internal table

Dear Experts,
I am new to ABAP. I have a very basic question but looks a quite puzzling one to me. Hemnce I am posting it here.
I am facing an unique problem in pulling data from database table and populating that data into internal table for further use.
The data in the database table "Zlt_mita" with fields M1 (Employee Name, Type: Char20) and M2 (Employee Code, Type Char7) are:
Plz refer the screenshot in the attached file:
My Code:
1) When I try to pull data from Dbase table by taking M2 as parameter.
     This code is succcessful and I am able to populate data in internal table it_dat.
TYPES: Begin Of ty_DAT,
                 M1   TYPE Zlt_mita-M1,
                 M2   TYPE ZLT_mita-M2,
             END OF ty_DAT.
DATA: it_dat        TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF ty_dat with header line,
          wa_dat      TYPE   ty_dat.
PARAMETERS: p_mitar    TYPE Zlt_Mita-M2.
SELECT           M1
                       M2
        FROM     ZLt_mita
        INTO       TABLE it_dat
        Where     M2 = p_mitar.
Loop at it_dat into wa_dat.
   WRITE:/2 wa_dat-M1,
              10 wa_dat-M2.
ENDLOOP.
2) When I try to pull data from Dbase table by taking M1 as parameter.
     This code is NOT succcessful and I am NOT able to populate data in internal table it_dat.
TYPES: Begin Of ty_DAT,
                 M1   TYPE Zlt_mita-M1,
                 M2   TYPE ZLT_mita-M2,
             END OF ty_DAT.
DATA: it_dat        TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF ty_dat with header line,
           wa_dat      TYPE   ty_dat.
PARAMETERS:    P_Mita    TYPE   ZLT_Mita-M1.
SELECT           M1
                       M2
        FROM     ZLt_mita
        INTO       TABLE it_dat
        Where     M1 = P_Mita.
Loop at it_dat into wa_dat.
   WRITE:/2 wa_dat-M1,
             10 wa_dat-M2.
ENDLOOP.
Why is this happening when both M1 and M2 are Type Character fields.
Looking forward for your replies.
Regards
Chandan Kumar

Hi Chandan ,
Database fetch is case sensitive ,So u need to give exact format in where condition.
Make your parameter and database in same case so that you need not worry about case sensitivity .
Check the lowecase check box in the domain .
Then declare your parameter
PARAMETERS:
P_Mita
TYPE   ZLT_Mita-M1 LOWER CASE .
You can do the vice versa also by unchecking lowercase and giving Upper case instead of lower in parameter declartion .

How to pull data from sql server ( Seperate server) & upload it into sap

Hi All,
I have a SQL Server database in System1,
data base name          DB1
Table name                 TB1
I want pull data from TB1 & upload the same into ztable in SAP.
How I can I achive this in ABAP.
Thanks in Advance
Appropriate points will be rewarded.
Arun kumar

Hi Arun,
You have to do the following:
1. Create an entry in Trxn DBCA for SQL Server in SAP, you are creating a database connection for the SQL server in SAP.
2. You use this connection, and write Native SQL stmnts...between EXECSQL...ENDEXEC to fetch the data..and then normal ABAP statements to put that data into your ztable.
Regards,
Raj
For eg:
TABLE DBCON Entry can be like this...depends on your External database..
CON_NAME                                  Raj                Logical name for connection

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
Elliott
