Updated xml schema not reflected in Import Manager and Syndicator

Hi all,
We have a perfectly running MDM scenario using custom XML schema for import and syndication. I have now updated the schema by adding a couple of fields to the schema and uploaded the new schema to MDM using Console - Admin - XML Schemas, and we have added the same fields in the repository. However, when I open Import Manager or Syndicator the xml schema is not updated, it is still showing the old version without the new fields. The fields added to the repository show up just fine.
I have searched around the forum and it suggests I actually have to re-create manually all mappings with the new schema?! I cannot believe this is really necessary and would mean massive amounts of work.
I have tried to export old maps and create new map with new schema. Then the new fields show up, but when I import the previously exported map the old schema returns and the new fields disappear.
Any help with this seemingly very odd behavior is very much appreciated!
Thanks,
Kenneth

Hi Kenneth, Aamir
the statement
> Uploading the XML schema in Console is mainly a placeholder, it not not synced with Import Manager or Syndicator schema at runtime.
is not completely true. You have to differentiate the MDM version and the tools:
MDM 7.1 Import Manager: uses the actual XSD of MDM Console
MDM 7.1 Syndicator: stores the XSD as part of the map and disregards the one in MDM Console
MDM 5.5 Import Manager: stores the XSD as part of the map and disregards the one in MDM Console
MDM 5.5 Syndicator: stores the XSD as part of the map and disregards the one in MDM Console
Best regards

Restricting access for import manager and syndicator

Hi All,
I wanted to know whether is there any way on how we can restrict the access to import manger and syndicator.
I have one scenario whether user needs to be given the access to data manager only but not to other components.It is ok if they are able to open but should not be able to import or syndicate.
Please help in this
Thanks
Nitin

Hi Nitin,
No i get your point Nitin,I said if a unwanted user logs into Import manager he can try to add/modify/replace record,this can be stopped if he is not given the rights.For this go to Console,Admin table and goto Roles and set rights and privileges on that.
whenever a user logs into Import Manager he has to give his user id and password,and from there we can control this.
If he tries to import records,it will fail.also if he tries to modify map,it wil fail too.
To get a clearer picture try doing it for one user and run this scenario.
An excerpt froim reference guide:
"The groups and functions displayed in the Name column are listed in Table 89; access privileges for each function are directly editable in the Functions pane"
record - Add records
 Modify records
 Modify checked out records
 Delete records
 Merge records
 Merge checked out records
 Protect records
 Unprotect records
 Check out records
 Check out new records
 Check in owned records
 Roll back owned records
 Check in non-owned records
 Roll back non-owned records
 Modify join permissions for non-owned records
Consolidation and distribution - Add import maps
 Modify import maps
 Delete import maps
 Add syndication maps
 Modify syndication maps
 Delete syndication maps
 Enable key mappin
You can control these setting privileges in Console.

This seems to be a classpath problem. You can also use JDK1.4.1

Update the schema for data foundation, business element and business view

Hi All
I am using oracle 11g as backend to develop using crystal reports and I am using Business View Manager as the connection in crystal reports.
Now my issue here is I have created the DC, DF, BE and BV using abc schema but as the request has changed I need to update the schema to xyz as table structure is same in both the schemas.
I was able to successfully update the schema in DC but that is not reflecting in DF, BE and BV as a result of that when I use the updated BV in report report is not run as there was abc.tablename for all tables.
I have searched google but unfortunately unable to find any useful solution for the problem.
Experts please help me to update the new schema connection to DF, BE and BV
I am using Crystal Reports 2008 SP3 and Business Objects 3.1
Thanks for your time.

Thanks for your continous assistance Mantu Sahu.....
Unfortunately I can't paste the screenshot aswell... but will try to explain in detail what I am doing...
to the left most part there will be datafoundation name... below that there are tables so what I have done is right click on the table in those options there is no change qualifier or ownere but there is option Set table location. Is this option you are discussing about?
To add more information I am working on Business Objects 2.1 SP0... will this have any impact on the options that are displaying.

Differ between import manager and import server

Hi to all,
Can any one explain difference between import server and import manager and how the data will be imported to the same.
Regards
MM

Hi reddy,
Can any one explain difference between import server and import manager and how the data will be imported to the same
Please follow the text below, which has been taken from the help.sap.com
Both MDIS and the MDM Import Manager can import data from a source file into an MDM repository. However, each has unique capabilities that distinguish it from the other. When each is used to its advantage, the result is an import strategy which provides the most efficient importing of data possible.
The strength of the Import Manager is its connection to the source data, which enables its interactive map-making capabilities. When the Import Manager connects to a source it preloads the entire source file, giving it knowledge of every field and every value in the source data. This u201Ctotal awarenessu201D is crucial for preparing a complete import map. To help ensure a map is complete, the Import Manageru2019s Import Status tab alerts users to any discrepancies between source data values and the current map. The user can fix these problems interactively within the Import Manager and save the corrected map before any data is imported.
Preloading an entire source file comes at a price, however. It consumes memory on the computer running the Import Manager and very large source files may exhaust the computeru2019s available memory.
By contrast, MDISu2019s strengths are its scalability and automation.
For scalability, instead of preloading the entire source file into the host machineu2019s memory as the Import Manager does, MDIS processes records in a stream by loading a record at a time into memory.
This streaming technique enables MDIS to process much larger source files than the Import Manager, as the demand for memory on the host machine is not affected by the size of the import file.
In addition to file size, file quantity poses a second scalability challenge. For example, a real-time transactional environment may produce a staggering number of files, each containing only one or two records. To import these files individually through Import Manager would be extremely inefficient. MDIS tackles this problem with a file aggregation feature that processes files systematically in batches rather than as individual files, resulting in faster, more efficient import of data.
As it relates to automation, MDIS requires no user intervention to import files to an MDM repository. Instead, it relies on maps created previously within the Import Manager. Once an import file is placed in the appropriate folder, its data is imported automatically into the MDM repository using the rules of the pre-defined import map. Once a file is processed, MDIS scans the repository for the next file to import. This process continues 24 hours a day, seven days a week, until either MDIS or MDM Server are stopped.
The trade-off for this scalability and automation is that if discrepancies between the source data and the import map arise, MDIS cannot u201Cfixu201D these problems by itself. Instead, the u201Cproblem casesu201D can be fixed manually at a later time using the interactive capabilities of the Import Manager. Unlike the Import Manager, however, MDIS can set aside problem records or files and continue importing.
These conceptual and operational differences between the Import Manager and MDIS are summarized in the table below.

Difference bet. Import manager and Import Server

Hi
Can anybody tell me what is the difference between a Import Server and a Import Manager? And How data is imported using these two?
Thanks in advance

Heii,
In MDIS :
MDIS can be installed on any machine on a network. It works with the MDM Server to import data automatically into existing MDM repositories. If MDIS and its associated MDM Server are installed on the same machine, no further customization needs to be done. If the MDM Server is located on a separate machine from MDIS, you will need to edit the MDIS settings file, mdis.ini (for more information, see MDIS Configuration).
Before you begin using MDIS, you need to be sure that both MDIS and the MDM Server are running and that the target MDM repository is loaded and running. Directions for starting MDIS are located in this section. Directions for starting the MDM Server and loading a repository can be found in the MDM Console Reference Guide
In case of Import Manger :
The MDM Import Manager is a GUI cockpit that defines a very specific sequence of steps to prepare source data for import. But rather than perform the import a record at a time as with other import tools, the MDM Import Manager offers a comprehensive set of data transformation capabilities that allow you to pre-process the source data a field at a time prior to import.
Moreover, for each field, the MDM Import Manager collapses the set of all values across the entire set of source records down to the set of distinct values, whose number will usually be dramatically smaller than the total number of records, often by several orders of magnitude.
Field-at-a-time rather than record-at-a-time processing and the distinct value lists of the MDM Import Manager are together the lynchpin of its patent-pending Parametric Import technology, which supports the import of electronic source data from any tabular or XML format.
Hope this might help to remove your confusion between Import Manager and MDIS.
Plese reward If you find this useful.

G470 Bluetooth not listed under Device Manager and not working

Hi,
Can someone teach me how to solve my G470 problem?
Its Bluetooth is not listed under Device Manager and I can't find it anywhere.
Before that, it isn't working at all.
Thanks
Solved!
Go to Solution.

hi athirah11,
Welcome to the Lenovo Forums.
Can you try the following:
1. Press the Windows key‌ +R, type devmgmt.msc and press Enter. On the Device Manager, click View > Show hidden devices and check if the Bluetooth device is being listed.
- Link to picture
- Link to picture
2. If the bluetooth device shows up under the Device Manager, do the following:
a. Under Control Panel > Programs, uninstall the Bluetooth driver/software (reboot if necessary)
b. Run the Bluetooth Driver Installer
- this will identify the type of Bluetooth Device installed on the system (eg. Qualcom Atheros, Intel, etc.) and it will install a generic Bluetooth driver. If successful, the Bluetooth device and its components should now appear normally under the Device Manager.
If the bluetooth device still doesn't show up, can you provide the model number of your G470 (eg. 59xxxxxx) fur further checking.
Let me know how it goes.
Regards

"Source file does not conform to XML Schema!" error at Import Server

Dear SDN,
When I run Import Server the import job stopped with the error "Source file does not conform to XML Schema!" in Log file. I used MDM SP05 Patch01 and HF1.
Both of 2 Import Server have same problems. Of course it works in Import Manager.
What do I have to check?
Regards,
Eric

Hi Eric
Just confirm this...
One needs to load XML schema file in MDM and can be done by specifying this file in Port .
Refer this link.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_mdm550/helpdata/en/fa/69b20ae0ae4b158a3f6d025b3d3847/content.htm
Just make sure that corresponding XSD file is specified in the port

Xml schema not working in excel 2010 - xml corrupt

I originally posted this thread in Microsoft Answers but was suggested to post here...
I upgraded from xl2003 to xl2010. I'm trying to map xml schemas to xl2010 (using the source pane just as I did for xl2003) and the mapping works fine until I save the file and reopen it. Once I reopen the file and try accessing the map through the XML source
pane, I get an error identifying the xml map is corrupt as follows:
"The operation cannot be completed because the XML map is corrupt
To fix this problem, remove the associated xml map from the workbook and then add the XML map back to the workbook.
/schecma/element[1][@name = 'returnData']/complextype[1]/complexContent[1]/extension[1]Undefined <complexType>, '{http://www.....' is used as a base type."
I've tried this in xl2007 and it works fine. I also read some blogs about xl2010 xml features and in some I found that this new version has enhanced security xml features.
Any help would be appreciated.
"innovation is the key to success"

Interesting to note this is still a problem, but even more interesting is as to why Excel works fine the first time you bring in the xsd, but not after you save it. I found information that says it's related to resolving externally referenced xsds,
which is fine, but again, why does it work the first ime and not the second? If it were a problem with external xsds then it should never work at all so I think that answer is bogus.
Something has to be getting corrupted on the save and it's not important enough to MS to spend the time to fix it.

Outlook 2010 - Updates To Meeting Not Reflecting on Invitee's Calendar

Hello -
Our environment is Exchange 2007 with Outlook 2010 client. Our executive assistant has full access permissions to our CEO's Exchange account and handles the calendar among other things. For some reason, when she creates a calendar event then makes changes
to it or deletes it, the changes do not reflect on the calendars of the invitees. I verified that she is following the correct steps to create/update events but the problem persists for some recipients; not all.
If someone could offer some guidance about what might be root cause, I would greatly appreciate it.

Hi,
According to your description, I understand that the meeting updates which is sent by the user who has full access permission to CEO’s mailbox can’t update some attendees’ calendars.
Please check whether there is any user using third-party devices to manage Calendar. If it is, please disable it. We can try to remove full access permission to CEO’s mailbox and add it back to have a try. If it fails, please consider to add the executive
assistant as a delegate for CEO. To do it, please following these steps:
1. Open Outlook in CEO’s computer, click File > Account Settings > Delegate Access.
2. Click Add to select the assistant, and Delegate Permissions for assistant window appears.
3. CEO can set folder permission for assistant and check “Delegate receive copies of meeting-related messages send to me”.
4. Click OK to finish settings.
Then check whether the issue persists.

Conditions in Calculation Schema not reflecting in Purch Info Record

Hi,
We are using calculation procedure TAXIN.
We have maintained Calculation Schema & maintained required conditions.
When we checked for maintaining these conditions in Purchasing Info Record, (Transaction Code - ME11 / ME12), these conditions are not appearing in the info record. But, the conditions appearing in the info record are not same as those in the Calculation Schema.
Also, the conditions maintained in Info Record are not getting copied to Purchase Order (except Base Price P000).
What could be the reason behind this? How to correct the same?
Regards,
Prashant Kolhatkar

Tax procedure condtions will not appear in the info record. for the conditon which is not reflecting in the PO, you may check in inforecord whether there is a check mark in condition record saved for approval; if so it is deleted

Qualification Information updated in PUI not reflected in Self Service

Hi there,
I noticed that when I update my qualification information via sefl service, after HR approval, this information is reflected in the Qualification forms in the PUI.
However, if I update my qualification via PUI, this information is not reflected in my self service page.
Im currently lost as to tracking why is this happening. Im not even able to locate the tables these information are written into.
Any clue would be great!
Thanks & cheers,
HK

You also might want to try myDataProvider.refresh(), where myDataProvider is the data provider for the DataGrid. Make sure you are using a collection like ArrayCollection or XMLListCollection and you are using the [Bindable] metadata tag.
