XI--- R/3 scenario: directly access and query a Y-table in R/3

Hi forum,
I need to make a XI--->R/3 scenario, i want to access and query a table in R/3 (a Y transparent table),
i have been suggested to use a Sysnchronous call to BAPI/Function module, but i want to know whether there's a way i can access/query a Y-Table in the R/3 directly without using a function module in it,

hi sudeep,
to access a table in r/3 u can either go for an rfc or a server proxy.
>>whether there's a way i can access/query a Y-Table in the R/3 directly without using a function module in it,
do u mean querying the database directly? u "can" ofcourse do it but <b>shud never</b> access r/3 database directly.
[reward if helpful]
regards,
latika.

Can I directly access BEX query from web version

Hi expert,
Can I directly access BEX query from web version ? I know we can access bex query from webi rich client.
Many Thanks,

Hi,
Yes, you can access BEx query via BICS connection (OLAP Connection).
In SAP BusinessObjects BI 4.0 you have multiple options to connect your SAP BusinessObjects BI client to your SAP NetWeaver BW system.

Direct Access and WIndows Phone 8.1?

Hi all –
I am reaching out to the community here because I haven’t been able to find anything concrete.
The scenario is that we wish to have links which are sent through an on-prem SharePoint farm resolve on a user’s Windows Phone whilst roaming.
The root of the issue is that the client does not have split DNS in place.
Therefore when they send a link from the SharePoint site it’s URL is mysite.acme.int, for example, which is not resolvable from outside of the corporate network;
Acme.com is however.
We have Direct Access (2012 R2) in place and use Windows Phone 8.1.
What I am trying to determine is whether or not we can leverage a DA connection with the Windows Phones in order to attain URL resolution.
Barring that does anyone have any bright ideas on how to conquer the problem?
Kind regards and thanks in advance!

Hi Wren,
Agree with Rmknight. Windows Phone doesn't support DirectAccess at present.

Hi Wren,
For your issue, you can try to configure alternate access mappings with IP address for your MySite Web Application and then you can access your site with IP address.
As I am not familiar with Windows Phone, you can connect with the Windows Phone support or post threads in Widnwos Phone forums to ask for more information:

SQL Loader, direct path and indexes on partition tables

Hi,
I have a big partitioned table and I have two indexes on it.
When I use SQL Loader to upload data to my table with using OPTIONS (DIRECT=TRUE) UNRECOVERABLE , then it takes almost half hour to load just one record!!
When I remove OPTIONS (DIRECT=TRUE), then it takes just two seconds to upload the same one record.
Am I missing anything? Can I use direct path load on indexed partitioned tables and have reasonable load time ?
An scheduled external job loads almost 100,000 records into this table every hour and I am trying to make the sql*loader performance it as fast as possible.
Any help would be appreciated,
Alan

Hi Alan,
How big is this table and what sort of indexes are they?
An index update using SQL*Loader unrecoverable direct path load is achieved by an isolated sort followed by a nologging merge of the old index and the new mini-index into a new index segment (this according to seminar notes by Jonathan Lewis). This will conceivably take a long time for a large table / large index.
Performance improvements? Are you loading all records into a new partition?
Cheers,
Colin

Conformed dimension and query multiple fact tables

Hello,
Please if someone can guide me on this requirement.
Requirement - I have a conformed dimension D1 and two fact tables F1 and F2. Both fact tables have many columns so I cannot merge
the two fact tables into one logical table. Currently both these fact tables have logical tables F1 and F2 respectively.
As per design the conformed dimension is a simple logical table in the rpd and not a dimension.
Can someone guide me how should i proceed so that i'll be able to fetch information from both the fact tables?
Edited by: 930542 on Apr 26, 2012 12:28 PM

Hi,
Currently the dimension table is taken as a simple logical table in rpd as it does not have have any levels or hierarchy.
Its a flat dimension. Can you guide me how can I implement a flat dimension in OBIEE? Because this dimension is taken as simple logical table
I am not able to set appropriate level for fac tables. This dimension does not appear in the list of dimensions.

A MDM Scenario Regarding accessing and displaying data

Hi All,
If there is a scenario such that there is a Manufacturer field from Main table[ Products ], has some vaues say A, B, C, etc. A suppose belongs to India, B to USA, C to UK, etc respectively. Then how can we do this that if a user is assigned to Manufacturer A, then that user should be able to see all the values even from B and C manufacturers also, But User should be able to modify the data which belongs to manufacturer A only.
Can Anybody please help me in this regard As to how can I achieve it in MDM.
Edited by: Gaurav Kumar Sharma on Mar 10, 2010 11:41 AM

Hi All,
Is it possible??
Create a role that have only read access to all records and create each another roleN that have read write access to corresponding manufacture like for each manufacture there is a read write role for corresponding records(we can achieve by namedsearch).
Finally assing user for manufacture A to both role A and read role
user for manufacture B to both roleb and read role
(i think it take the union of both roles).
I will try on my system tomorrow and update u on same sp for a mean time if u get cahnce please try it if it looks good,
Please suggest something better if possible.
Thanks,

Direct Access and RSA

Does DirectAccess collaborate with RSA?
Tnx!

Hi Doran,
Thanks for posting here.
Here is the extract from article “DirectAccess FAQ” might answer your question :
Q. I use a security token as my second authentication factor today. Can that be used with DirectAccess?
A. To enforce multi-factor credentials for intranet access, DirectAccess requires the Active Directory domain controller to mark the Kerberos token with
a Public Key Cryptography for Initial Authentication in Kerberos (PKINIT) indicator. Other two-factor authentication methods that are used for traditional VPN connections, such as using an RSA Secure ID token, do not perform an Active Directory-based authentication
with PKINIT and cannot be used for DirectAccess multi-factor authentication.

Direct Access and Proxy server...

I've followed the step-by-step instructions for demonstrating UAG DA in a test lab. It all works fine.
Now I've configured TMG on the UAG server to act as a web access proxy and created a group policy to apply the proxy settings. It seems that the DA Client applies this policy and tries to use the proxy server for internet access when outside of the Intranet. How do I configure group policy to force the client to use the web proxy when connected to the Intranet, but not when outside the Intranet and connected using DA?
Thanks all,
Neil

Hi Neil,
I don't think you'll be able to bounce back through the UAG server that the DA client is connected to, since the TMG configuration required isn't with support boundaries.
However, you can configure the DA clients to use another TMG firewall on your network to connect to the Internet through the Web proxy. You will need to take advantage of the DNS64/NAT64 on the UAG server to connect to the FQDN of the outbound web proxy listener on the TMG firewall. That will translate the IPv6 request to a IPv4 request, and since the TMG firewall's web proxy will perform name resolution on behalf of the client, then client doesn't need to worry about that.
That's how it's supposed to work. I'll try to stand this up in the lab and see what it works in practice.
Thanks!

Best practices for creating and querying a history table?

Suppose I have a table of name-value pairs, and I want to keep track of changes to them so that I can query the value of any pair at any point in time.
A direct approach would be to use a schema like this:
CREATE TABLE NAME_VALUE_HISTORY (
NAME      VARCHAR2(...),
VALUE     VARCHAR2(...),
MODIFIED DATE
);When a name-value pair is updated, a new row is added to this table with the date of the change.
To determine the value associated with a name at a particular point in time, one uses a query like:
SELECT * FROM NAME_VALUE_HISTORY
WHERE NAME = :name
    AND MODIFIED IN (SELECT MAX(MODIFIED)
                    FROM NAME_VALUE_HISTORY
                    WHERE NAME = :name AND MODIFIED <= :time)My question is: is there a better way to accomplish this? What indexes/hints would you recommend?
What about a two-table approach like this one? http://pratchev.blogspot.com/2007/05/keeping-history-data-in-sql-server.html

There is one advantage... recording the change of a value is just one insert, and it is also atomic without the use of transactions.At the risk of being dumb, why is that an advantage? Oracle always and everywhere uses transactions so it's not like you're avoiding some overhead by not using transactions.
If, for instance, the performance of reading the value of a name at a point in time is not important, then you can get by with just using one table - the history table.If you're not overly concerned with the performance implications of having the current data and the history data in the same table, rather than rolling your own solution, I'd be strongly tempted to use Workspace Manager to let Oracle keep track of the changes.
You can create a table, enable versioning, and do whatever DML operations you'd like
SQL> create table address(
2    address_id number primary key,
3    address    varchar2(100)
4 );
Table created.
SQL> exec dbms_wm.enableVersioning( 'ADDRESS', 'VIEW_WO_OVERWRITE' );
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
SQL> insert into address values( 1, 'First Address' );
1 row created.
SQL> commit;
Commit complete.
SQL> update address
2     set address = 'Second Address'
3   where address_id = 1;
1 row updated.
SQL> commit;
Commit complete.Then you can either query the history view
SQL> ed
Wrote file afiedt.buf
1 select address_id, address, wm_createtime
2*   from address_hist
SQL> /
ADDRESS_ID ADDRESS                        WM_CREATETIME
         1 First Address                  09-AUG-12 01.48.58.566000 PM -04:00
         1 Second Address                 09-AUG-12 01.49.17.259000 PM -04:00Or, even cooler, you can go back to an arbitrary point in time, run a query, and see the historical information. I can go back to a point between the time that I committed the first change and the second change, query the ADDRESS view, and see the old data. This is invaluable if you want to take existing queries and/or reports and run them as of certain dates in the past when you're trying to debug a problem.
SQL> select *
2    from address;
ADDRESS_ID ADDRESS
         1 First AddressYou can also do things like set savepoints which are basically named points in time that you can go back to. That lets you do things like create a savepoint for the data as soon as month-end processing is completed so you can easily go back to "July Month End" without needing to figure out exactly what time that occurred. And you can have multiple workspaces so different users can be working on completely different sets of changes simultaneously without interfering with each other. This was actually why Workspace Manager was originally created-- to allow users manipulating spatial data to have extremely long-running transactions that could span days or months-- and to be able to switch back and forth between the current live data and the data in each of these long-running scenarios.

Direct Access Migration of Root CA

We have a Domain Controller "DC01" which has the Enterprise Certificate Services role installed and the CA on this Domain Controller is named "DC01"
The CDP location on the CA "DC01" is <servername> so effectively it's LDAP://DC01 (only LDAP is published on the certificates, no http etc.)
The CA "DC01" issues the version1 "Computer" certificates with AutoEnrollment to all clients and all our internal clients and external clients have a "Computer" certificate from CA "DC01"
Now we have an UAG SP3 server with Direct Access and all our clients connect successfull with Direct Access as it's setup now
In the UAG configuration (wizard) on the IPsec Certificate Authentication screen on the option "Use a certificate from a trusted root CA" the "DC01" Root CA certificate is selected
As Microsoft best-practises we want to move the Enterprise Certificate Services to a new member server "CS01" and effectively create a new Root CA "CS01"
As we use the version1 "Computer" certificate template we cannot select "reenroll all certificate holders"
so idea is to duplicate the "Computer" certificate template as a v2 template that supersedes the version1 computer template, this effectively replaces all current Computer certificates based on the old v1 computer template on clients.
Then all clients get a new "Computer" certificate from the new Root CA but in the UAG Direct Access configuration the "IPsec Certificate Authentication" "Use a certificate from a trusted root CA" the old "DC01" Root CA
certificate is still selected
Question1; will this lock out clients that have a new Computer certificate from the new Root CA but the UAG Direct Access configuration still use the Root CA certificate from the old DC01 CA?
Another idea is NOT to supersede the the version1 Computer certificate but AutoEnroll the new v2 duplicated Computer template.
This means that clients will have a Computer certificate from the old CA "DC01" but also a Computer certificate from the new CA "CS1"
Question2; can a client have 2 computer certificates (1 from old DC01 ca and 1 from new CS01 ca) and connect Direct Access and will this still work?

Yes, the clients will still connect with two different certificates. I haven't had your exact situation before, but I have had to deal with a CA server that died, and we had to replace it with a new one. We stood up a new CA, issued "Computer"
certificates again from the new CA (the old certs still existed on all the client computers) - and then switched the UAG settings over to the new root CA. This worked.
I do recommend deleting the old certificates from the client computers if possible, so that there is no potential for conflict down the road, but the above scenario worked fine for us and I have also worked with numerous companies that have multiple machine-type
certificates on their client computers and as long as they have one which meets the DA criteria and chains up to the CA that is active in the UAG config, it'll build tunnels.

Data source could not able select NOT ALLOWED DTP Direct Access

He Experts,
I have a Problem, I have searched in Fourms and Blogs also but I did get any solution .
I am developing HCM reports, as per my requirement extracting data through customized Function Module.ZGET_REQUI_DETAILS_NEW1.
I can find data in RSA3 and it is loaded sucessful in BI, this I was comformation with the monitor screen
all indicators are in Green Trafic signals.
then I came to PSA but I cann't see data here one pop up is comming Error & in help message no D0313
I found one thing the request which is in PSA come with GREEN (request updated to Target)
rest of all standard are in Red untill transfer to targets.
I found secound thing in the DATA SOURCE in Extraction Tab option Direct Access is selected with
Allowed, but I want to sent data to standard DSO.
that options are in disable mode even in edit selection.
Queires:
1. How to change the option NOT ALLOWED DTP Direct Access insted of Allowed in Data Source(ZREQUI_FM)
2. what is will do to see data in PSA.

Windows 2012 Direct Access ISATAP not working

We want to be able to manage-out in our native IPv4 environment, the isatap A record has already been created and is resolvable to all client machines including the Direct Access server. Unfortunately, ISATAP still appears to be Disabled. Do we need to manually
set this to enabled apart from what I've already done?

Hi,
Thank you for the post.
As far as I understand, ISATAP is not recommended for use as the IPv6 to IPv4 transition technology in DirectAccess in Windows Server 2012. With ISATAP disabled DirectAccess clients can initiate connections to computers
on the internal network, and the computers on the internal network are able to respond. However, computers on the internal network will not be able to initiate connections to DirectAccess for purposes of remote client management. If you want to be able to
remote client management, consider deploying native IPv6 for management servers that will connect to DirectAccess client computers.

Direct Access on Windows Server 2012 R2 and IPV6

I have a question about IPV6 and Direct Access in Server 2012 R2. Without using UAG is it still mandatory to have IPV6 enabled in the intranet?
Kristopher Turner | Not the brightest bulb but by far not the dimmest bulb.

Hi,
DirectAccess uses IPv6 with IPsec to create a secure connection between DirectAccess client computers and the internal corporate network.
However, DirectAccess does not necessarily require connectivity to the IPv6 Internet or native IPv6 support on internal networks. Instead, it automatically configures and uses IPv6 transition technologies to tunnel IPv6 traffic across the IPv4 Internet (6to4,
Teredo, IP-HTTPS) and across your IPv4-only intranet (NAT64 or ISATAP).
For detailed information, please view the link below,

Direct Access 2012 R2 - Problems with Force Tunneling and other questions

I have just setup a Direct Access 2012 R2 server in my network, 2012 domain and all Windows 8 clients.
Internal CA environment (no external CRL) using a public issued cert for IPHTTPS tunnel, 2 interfaces for the DA server, 1 internal and 1 in the DMZ behind a NAT firewall (1 public IPv4 address) and my test clients are connecting fine to internal resources.
1. When I enable Force Tunneling the clients no longer are able to access the external internet. Is there anything I need to add to make this work?
2. I am having trouble with our Remote Desktop Session Hosts. I can only assume it has something to do with the DNS as we have our AD domain performing internal DNS of the int.contoso.com domain and public DNS performing for the external
Contoso.com domain (RDWA etc). DA has only int.contoso.com set as a DNS Name Suffix in the Infrastructure Setup. Should I add the external contoso.com Name Suffix in there too?
3. I have a Kaspersky Security Center server for centralized AV admin, can I still push out AV updates to the clients that connect with DA. Do I add my KSC server to the Management Servers list in the Infrastructure Server Setup page on the DA
setup. Does that list allow those servers to access the DA clients?

Hi,
Let's solve problems one by one. Force tunneling. When enabled, all network trafic from DirectAccess clients goes throught IPSEC tunnels. Just configure a proxy on your DirectAccess clients (with a FQDN of course) and your clients should be able to surf
internet again.
RDS : Depend. Where are your RDS servers registred internal zone DNS or external DNS zone. If a DirectAccess client cannot resolve a name it does not know if it has to go throught the tunnel. At last can you ping your RDS Server?
Remote Management : Right. Adding servers in this list allow them to use the IPSEC infrastructure tunnel (computer established tunnel) without users being logged.
