Questions in bw extractions

Hi Everyone,
I have few questions.
1)When you go for generic extraction what is Time Stamp, Calday,Numeric pointer, Upper limit, Lower limit.
2)U get New status , Additive Delta.If i set here(on R/3) what is the need of setting in BW.
3) In Lo's BW gets data from Delta Queue. If i go for Generic Extraction from where BW extract data.
Thanks for you valuable replys.

Hello Sarita,
1. for generic extraction please refer:

2. in R/3 the record mode determines seen in the rodeltam table this. i.e whether it will be a new status or additive delta for the respective datasource. Based on this you need to select the appropriate update type for the data target in BW. For eg: ODS supports additive as well as Overwrite function. Depending on which datasource is updating the ODS, and the record mode supported by this datasource, you need to do the right selection in BW!!
3. All delta's are taken from the delta queue. The way of populating the delta queue differs for LO or other datasources.
Hope this helps..
thanks,

Question about CRM extractions

Hi all,
The CRM team have defined several business transaction types in CRM customizing. These transactions are transferred to BW by using DataSource 0CRM_SALES_ACT_1. Now there are new requirements based on transaction types (BW: 0CRM_PRCTYP) which are not included in the extraction yet. No selections take place on InfoPackage level.
Two questions:
- Is it necessary to indicate whether or not transaction types should be included in the extraction or are there other possible reasons why these transactions are not transferred?
- I may need another DataSource for these transaction types. If so, how do I know which DataSource belongs to a particular business transaction.
Thnx in advace,
Henk.

Hi Eric,
I think the license is a internet user and this license is more cheap than user sap gui. Ask for you comercial SAP...to check it.

QUESTION: Essbase data extraction and Installing ODI Agent??

For extracting data from Essbase cubes, ODI has "LKM Hyperion Essbase DATA to SQL".
We can use (1). ReportScript, or (2). MDX-query, or (3). CalcScript
For data-extraction using CalcScript, ODI Agent must be running on the same server as the Essbase server.
Does anyone know if there is a need for ODI Agent on the Essbase machine if we use MDX-query method for data-extraction?
We would like to avoid installing ODI Agent for Essbase data-extraction.
.

Thanks John.
One related question. To move data from one Essbase cube to another Essbase cube using ODI Interface, Can we do it efficiently through MDX-query?
We want to avoid Replicated-partitioning OR CalcScripts, if possible.
BTW... Your ODI/Hyperion blog is a bible for us.

Question abt Blob Extraction

Hey Guys,
I want to know whats the best way to extract blob from a table. Right now we are using SELECT query and then open a InputStream and read the stream (just like any other input!)
Now I'm thinking of using Stored Procedure for this task i.e i would call a stored procedure from my java code and that stored procedure would extract the blob and then i would proceed. My question is do you guys think i would get some good performence using Stored Procedures or it would be same??
Thanks for your time to read this.
sam

Sam,
IMO a stored proc is always better. As for the performance you'll have to check communication time versus finding the blob in the table and see if it worth it for you--but then you'll already have the stored proc so you might as well use it. A stored proc will almost always give you a boost over using a script, but because your using blobs (I don't know how large yours is), you may miss any benefit because of communication time between your servers and app.

I have a question: How to extract a ztable from miniwas to bw

Hi, In BW , I create a source system to connect my miniwas system.
I read in the forums that you need to create a datasource in rso2 transaction to extract a ztable from r/3 and replicate it in BW. But in the miniwas system the transaction rso2 doesn´t exist.
If I want to extract a ztable from miniwas to bw
How I can do that?? (A step by step procedure, please)
Thanks
José Angel, I'm beginner in Bw.

If you don´t have th RS02 you can´t load the z table directly from MiniWas to BW...i think that Mini was doesn´t have the functionality for work with BW.....
Instead you can load the data using a CSV file....you can download the data into a CSV file and in BW you can create an Infopackage for the File Logical System and you cand load your data...
I hope this helps you

Question about data extraction from web forms

I am developing a simple web form in DreamWeaver MX for
increased accesibility for users who utilize screen reader
software, as navigating PDF forms is still currently very difficult
for most of the screen readers to navigate. I was wondering if
there is a way to take an .asp webform that a user fills out and
when they hit a print button it would extract the data from the
form and open an Adobe PDF form and populate the data they entered
into specific fields within the PDF form which would allow them to
print an official copy of the form they used the web version to
complete. Any insight into this possibility is greatly appreciated!
Thanks,

Fi Extraction and BWFIOVERLA

Hi All,
I have a question regarding FI Extraction.
The issue was that we have the FI extraction in our system which brings in data once a day, while we wanted to increase the frequency of this load.I checked SAP note 485958. It suggested some enhancements in BWOM_SETTINGS.
But I could not understand where exactly the change needs to be done and how??
Pl help me with the steps.
Also, I believe if BWFIOVERLA is set to 'X' then you can get the delta until the previous day(that is until yesterday) but if it is left blank then you can get delta until day before the previous day that is until day before yesterday.
In our system we have this as blank. What will be the consequences if I set it as X? For example, if I check BWFIOVERLA as X, then how will it affect my tomorrow morning's loading??
Thanks and Best regards,
Sharmishtha Biswas

Hi,
Hope the value of Parameter BWFIOVERLA is actually depended on parameter BWFITIMBOR in table BW0M_SETTINGS.
The default Parameter value of the parameter BWFITIMBOR is 2:00 AM.
Case 1:
If the data extraction started before 2:00 am of particular day (10.04.2007) the data selected will be upto day before the last extraction run. If last extraction completed by 09.04.2007, 00:50 am. Then the data extracted will be upto 08.04.2007, 24:00 Hrs. Because of parameter BWFISAFETY (value = 1 Day).
Case 2:
If the extraction is started after 2:00 am, then the data extracted will be upto 09.04.2007, 24:00 Hrs.
To overcome the case 1, we maintain the parameter BWFIOVERLA (value x). So that if you extract the data before 2:00 am of 10.04.2007 also, you can extract the data upto 09.04.2007, 24 Hrs.

Vishwanath.

Designer beginner's question: How to populate form with XML web service output?

sorry, here is yet another Adobe Designer beginners question: My form uses a webservice data connection which returns an xml-string like this: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16"?> <CurrentWeather> <Location>Sion, Switzerland (LSGS) 46-13N 007-20E 481M</Location> <Time>Apr 26, 2007 - 09:50 AM EDT / 2007.04.26 1350 UTC</Time> <Wind> from the WSW (240 degrees) at 15 MPH (13 KT):0</Wind> <Visibility> greater than 7 mile(s):0</Visibility> <SkyConditions> partly cloudy</SkyConditions> <Temperature> 80 F (27 C)</Temperature> <DewPoint> 46 F (8 C) </DewPoint> <RelativeHumidity> 30%</RelativeHumidity> <Pressure> 29.88 in. Hg (1012 hPa)</Pressure> <Status>Success</Status> </CurrentWeather> What is the simplest and recommended way to extract the element fields to my form? Thank you very much an kind regards, Hans Grund

The question is still unanswered!
Let me give some details and break up the problem
in more specific questions:
- In Designer 8.1 I click new data binding --> wsdl -->
http://www.webservicex.net/globalweather.asmx?wsdl
A message box comes up and says "cannot load wsdl file"
==> 1. Question:
Why maybe refuses Designer to load the http-wsdl,
although this option is explicitly allowed?
- When I save the wsdl to a file, Designer loads it
without any problems. The web service uses two input parameters
(CountryName and CityName) and returns an xml-string GetWeatherResult)
like the one in my first posting. I drag these fields from the binding view to my form, and it runs ok!
- THE PROBLEM IS, THAT I NEET TO EXTRACT THE ELEMENT FIELDS
FROM THE RESULT XML-STRING!
==> 2. Question:
How to extract xml element fields from wsdl output into a form?
- I tried with eclipse and XmlSpy to build a modified wsdl file
with structured output definition, so that the specific element fields
show up in the data binding view and are usable to my form,
and the modified wsdl maps consistently to the web service result string.
So far without success: In the PDF -preview or Reader-
when the wsdl-binding is executed and the web service output
should show up in the result fields, just nothing happens.
==> 3. Question:
Can this strategy to provide a "modified wsdl" possibly succeed,
and how?
==> 4. Question:
Is is possible -and how?- to check whether an xml string
is valid as web service output against the wsdl-definition?
==> 5. Question:
How to debug a web service connection with Designer?
- Finally I tried to find a way to load the result xml-string
into a local var in the script editor and parse it, much like:
var xmlDoc = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM");
xmlDoc.load(DataSet.MyForm.GetWeatherResult.rawValue);
==> 6. Question:
Is it possible -and how?- to use a framework like dotnet?
How to utilize SAX or DOM in Designer?
Many thanks and appreciations for your help!!

Hi,
I want to write a tool which can extract highlighted text from the pdf and export the text into another pdf file. Can somebody give me directions how to do that.
if you think some tool already has that capacity, please let me know. Most of the tool I know just extract the summary like the location of the highlighted portion but not the actual text associated with it.

Problem with extraction

Hi Friends
I have a COPA extract structure created where in i am using the delta update.
When i tried to do the extraction some how the data is not being extracted into SAP BW .
Now where should i collect the time stamp and what is the process that i need to follow for re extracting
Regards
vijay

Hi bhanu
My question is the extraction was succesful in SAP r/3 but due to some RFC problem it couldnt reach SAP BW.
Since for the first delta the time stamp is present should i go ahead and do the extraction once again or take care of old time stamp.
Since mean time there might be other records created which i should not take care of.
Let me know your views.
Regards
vijay

Extraction, Flat File, Generic Data Source, Delta Initialization

Extraction, Flat File, Generic Data Source, Delta Initialization
I have couple of questions regarding data extraction.
1.     If you have Data Source a Flat File e.g. Excel file I know that you have to create Data Source at BW side. How do you upload updates, by selecting Delta Update when executing next Data Load? Do you ever u201Cconvertu201D this Excel file into Application Tables to become SAP Source 
2.     Can you please give me example of situation where you had to create Generic Data Source? What is difference between Time Stamp, Calend. Day and Numeric Pointer. Which one is most common to select?
3.     I read somewhere that Generic Data Source does not have Setup Table. I thought that you have to have Setup Table in order to load transaction Data otherwise you will lock the Application Tables. Where am I going wrong im my thinking please?
4.     What are steps in terms of IP before, under and after Delta Initialization. I belive that you can do two ways:
Full Update - Initialize Delta Process (without Data Transfer) u2013 Delta Update or
Initialize Delta Process (with Data Transfer) u2013 Delta Update
Am I right? What is most common method and why?
5.     If you want to add a filed in Data Source after 6 month using it, you want to do it without re-init Delta Queue. You add field in RSA6, then provide info for ABAP to populate new filed (info u2013 name of Data Source, Extract Structure, field added, name of Application Table which contains the field). How does it work now as there is no SetUp table it has been deleted after Initialisation? How does Delta Queue know that it is going to receive data which has been expanded by one field or it may does not need to know at all?
THANKSSSSSSSSSs

Hi,
1. If you have Data Source a Flat File e.g. Excel file I know that you have to create Data Source at BW side. How do you upload updates, by selecting Delta Update when executing next Data Load? Do you ever u201Cconvertu201D this Excel file into Application Tables to become SAP Source
Once you create Datasource for A flat file extraction then it is file source system specific hence you cont change to Application table source Data source
In info package you can change the source as application server instead of desktop no need to change the DS
2. Can you please give me example of situation where you had to create Generic Data Source? What is difference between Time Stamp, Calend. Day and Numeric Pointer. Which one is most common to select?
When we don't find any standard extractor then we can go for Generic(if i want information sales along with finance information in a data source then generally we dont get standard one hence we can go for generic DS)
Check the below link for More about generic DS .
http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/BI/Generic+Extraction
for Delta capturing you can use
Timestamp(if the table has time stamp filed so it can stamp the last changed record in that table hence it is easy to get delta based on the time stamp)
Calday- (If the table doesn't have the Timestamp filed then search for Calday where you can stamp the delta based on the date when documents are changed )
Numericpointer : If the table doesn't above both then we go for this option where you can the numeric value change stamp )
3. I read somewhere that Generic Data Source does not have Setup Table. I thought that you have to have Setup Table in order to load transaction Data otherwise you will lock the Application Tables. Where am I going wrong im my thinking please?
Generic datasource nothing but we extracting data directly from the database table without any interface between the application/systems
4. What are steps in terms of IP before, under and after Delta Initialization. I belive that you can do two ways:
Full Update - Initialize Delta Process (without Data Transfer) u2013 Delta Update or
Initialize Delta Process (with Data Transfer) u2013 Delta Update
Am I right? What is most common method and why?
Correct
5. If you want to add a filed in Data Source after 6 month using it, you want to do it without re-init Delta Queue. You add field in RSA6, then provide info for ABAP to populate new filed (info u2013 name of Data Source, Extract Structure, field added, name of Application Table which contains the field). How does it work now as there is no SetUp table it has been deleted after Initialisation? How does Delta Queue know that it is going to receive data which has been expanded by one field or it may does not need to know at all?
Once you add the new field to structure(DS) you will get the data as on date onwards not historical data hence what is the concept of setup table ( delta records come from the Delta Que not from the setup table )
If you want histaric data to new field then you need to setp table deletion ...etc...
Hope it is clear..

DART - Question on Special G/L related segments

Hi guys,
I am new in SAP, and I have a few questions regarding DART extraction.
I have been given a task to study on how extraction is performed in DART, focusing on the extraction of "Special G/L figures" transaction data.
I know that DART extracts are organized in segments, and in performance assistance, it states that the segments TXW_KNC3 and TXW_LFC3 are processed when "Special G/L figures" is checked.
However, when I tried to find for these two segments in DART Segment catalog to check for their source tables and more details, it seems that I can't find it anywhere in the Segment catalog.
Therefore, I would like to know:
1) Is there any reason on why the two segments are not listed in the DART segment catalog?
2) Do I need to define a new segment for this? As for my understanding, the segments is provided by SAP by default.
3) I understand the definition of "Special G/L" and what it does, anyhow, in DART, it is stated as "Special G/L figures". Is there any difference between these? Does "figures" means like the header data of Special G/L?
I would really appreciate for your assistance.
Regards,
Shakir

Hello Shakir,
1.it depends on which DART release your using. It's been a while but I think G/L extraction came out with DART 2.5. The TXW's your looking for came with DART 2.7 and can be found in SAP Note 1511234
2. Segment information can be found in the transactions FTWW and FTWQ
3. G/L is General Ledger and you can find more information over this here : http://scn.sap.com/thread/1968409

Extract a report using the hostname and/or IP address of the destination site (by hits or volume).

Hi,
Is it possible to extract a report using the SCABB 3.7.0 (or any other version) like the "TOP WEB HOSTS" but instead of HITS as the results for the "TOP WEB HOSTS" I can see the traffic volume toward the top hosts?
other question:
When I extract the "TOP WEB HOSTS" report, I use the field "where the host contains" and type something like "google" to see the top 10 google related hosts.
I would like to extract some report like "TOP WEB IP ADDRESSES", is it possible?
thanks!

DATA EXTRACTION FROM ORACLE & SYBASE

Hello members...
Good day. This is my first posting in this site. I am new to Oracle and have a question regarding Data extraction from Oracle and Sybase.
My project has two applications one having Oracle as the database and the other has Sybase as the database. On the proposed production schedule, there would be a interface data update from the Oracle database to the Sybase database.
My aim is to check if the data update is in sync after the update. We plan to extract the data from the two databases (Oracle and Sybase) and compare in a Third Party tool. We have the tool to compare. Can any of you suggest a nice data extraction tool. I have to set this data extraction as a batch in the nightly batch schedule.
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Krishna Kumar...

Sybase provides the best data extraction utility called BCP. You can load and extract data. It is very user friendly. From your unix prompt if you type in BCP ? you will all the switches and
help messages you need to use. It is so simple.
Oracle dosn't have such a utility to extract data from table.
You need to write a Stored procedure and use UTF_FILE package to
extract data from table and write into a file.

SRM Extraction Queue is filled Unnecessary -- to BI load

HI
We are running some data loads from SRM to BI .
We have a Strange Issue:
Without triggering process chains or Infopack groups in BI side, Extraction queues (SMQ1 TRFCs ) are filled with some entries. It will causes the SRM loads in a very slow manner.
Question is :
Why Extraction queues are filled in source sys - SRM without running Infopack/Process chain?
Is there any Background program running in SRM side?
What is the data flow behaviour in BI?
How to resolve this Issue..
And Mainly please let me know the reason?
Thanks in advance..
Cheers.
Sri

Hi,
Check whether you are Using Queued Delta or not in LBWE, and if your code working fin meanes you can get the corretc dat ain Queued delta aslo.
