XML data loading to BW

Hello Gurus,
Is the re a specific steps of sending XML data to BW ?
If yes, can I have the steps ?
Thanks

Hi Luis,
Follow the steps:
1) Install XML 3.0 parser
2) Create an Info source
3) Assign PC file as data source
4) Create transfer and communication structure and activate
5) From transfer structure screen select Extras -- Create BW datasource with SOAP(Simple Object Access Protocol)
6) After succesful generation, the data source is connected to myself datamart; the name of the data data source is 6A*
7)Create an info package
8) Load data from XML file

XML Data Load into releational structures

Hi,
I am very unexperienced in using XML and have the problem
to import very large XML data files into existing reletional structures.
In our production DB we don't use the java engine, so
that PL/SQL an the SQL Loader are the only available ways to import the data.
At the moment we get flat files and use the SQL Loader utility. But an interface to a new system send XML data now and I have to fill the same old releational structure with the new data.
Can anybody give me a hint about the best technic for an high performance import. Are there any existing tools for the relational mapping?
Regards Ralph

Thank you for your reply.
You are right. We only want to break the XML to fill our relational structures. We don't need the XML data further on. But we have to load the data in temporary structures, because we have to transform the data in our own format. (The system which delivers the XML data is external and uses another data model)
Is there no more elegant way with use of databse built in technics? The XML data we get can be validated against a XML schema.
So I thought, it could be a way to load the XML in the XDB and register the schema in the database. After that store the XML data in the default generated object relational structures and then programm the data transformation and the data flow between these default structures to our target data structures with PL/SQL.
I don't know if this way is performant enough.
If I use an external tool i have to code the relational mapping outside the database and insert the data with use of ODBC in temporary structures which i have to create manualy.
So I hoped to find a way to load the data in any relational structure using the advantages of XML and XML schema and code the neccasary logic inside the DB.
Do you have any further hints for my problem?

Flash xml data loading and unloading specs

hi i am trying to get specification information that i cannot
find anywhere else.
i am working a large flash project
and i would like to load xml data into the same swf
object/movieclip repeatedly.
as i do not want the previously loaded items to unload i need
to know if doing this will unload the items from the swf or just
keep them in the library so they can be reposted without reloading.
i cannot find any supporting documenation either way that
tells me that if i load new content into a clip (i am aware
levels overwrite) if it will or will not unload this content.
thanks in advance.
mk

this is awful for me -- i cant even get the clip to duplicate
-- and i thought this would be the simplest solution to keeping
everything cached for one page before and one page after current in
the project.
i have used a simpler clip to test the code and see if i am
insane.
duplicateMovieClip(_root.circle, "prv", 5);
prv._x = 300;
prv._y = 300;
prv._visible = true;
prv.startDrag();
this ALWAYS works when i use the _root.circle file of a green
simple circle
BUT
when i change it to my main movie clip (which is loaded AND
On screen -- it just doesnt duplicate at all!) -- i've even
triggered it to go play frame 2 JUST IN CASE
I've even set visibility to true JUST IN CASE
ie all i do is change _root.circle to _root.cur
and .... nada.
AND _root.cur IS DEFINITELY on the screen and all xml
components have been loaded into it. (it is a slide with a dynamic
picture and dynamic type and it 100% works)
has anyone had this insanity happen before?
is this an error where flash cannot attach movie or duplicate
a clip that has dynamic contents???

I tried a lot but not able to solve this. I searched the forum but could not find the answer to this.
Can anyone pls give me the solution for this.
Thanks
Kapil

Hi Michael,
Thanks for your reply.
The note 717162 gives the details about integrating XI and BW and then sending an XML file (How to integrate XI and BW).
But the how to document for sending XML data to BW has different HTML file which has the following two input parameters.
Path to file:
BW SOAP service:
Where as the XI document has many fields as follows:
Path to file:
hostname:
port:
own business system:
namespace:
interface:
quality of service (EO/BE):
Could you pls help me with this.
Thanks

XML data load for master data

All,
Is it possible to load master data using XML datasource. If yes how. We are already using XML load for the transactional data. When we try for the Master data the option "create BW datasource with SOAP connection" is greyed out.

Flash and XML data loading issue

I have this SWF that loads 2 XML files that controls 2 different areas of the SWF. I am using this code because I have stacked layers and when this was 2 seperate SWFs I couldn't use the SWFObject because of the wmode quirk in FF. So my issue is when you first load this it seems to only load the slideshow (left side) and part of the right menu and then on refresh it loads the rest of the menu - how do I get it to load everything at once? I have attacehed all of my files.

Creating schemas using xml data

Hi
I have a situation where I need to create
database schemas dynamically using <xml> data.
Any help in this regard will be much appreciated.
Thanks
Radheep

I'm not sure how to write a Web Service, however data can be read from a flat file using XML Data > Load, however the flat file has to be formatted with appropriate XML tags, such as...
<data>
<variable name="Test">
<row><column>1</column><column>2</column></row>
<row><column>10</column></row>
</variable>
</data>
In addition, you have to write a scriptlet that resides on a web server, with which Xcelsius can communicate. Once your data is formatted, it is as simple as referencing the file location in the XML Data URL: field.
Web Service is a very popular solution, and probably better than XML Data in this case due to the large volume of data. If you do a forum search for "Web Service" you'll find many threads regarding its usage.

Linking a class to a dynamic text field to load XML data.

Hi,
I'm quite new to ActionScript and would be grateful for any help here.
I want to load text into a dynamic text field (called 'about_tab') using a class depending on the language selected (by clicking on a flag icon) by the user.
I managed to get this to work when the ActionScript was written directly in the timeline, but am having problems with doing the same thing via a class.
This is my class file:
package
import flash.display.SimpleButton;
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.net.URLRequest;
import flash.net.URLLoader;
import flash.events.Event;
public class ChangeLang extends SimpleButton
public function ChangeLang()
addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, switchLang);
trace("ChangeLang class working");
public function switchLang(event:MouseEvent):void
var lang = event.target.name;
var req:URLRequest = new URLRequest("languages/"+lang+".xml");
var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
var substance:XML;
function xmlLoaded(event:Event):void
trace("function xmlLoaded is running");
substance = new XML(loader.data);
about_tab.text = substance.about_lbl;
loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, xmlLoaded);
loader.load(req);
Here's one of my XML files (the other is the same except "About" is written in German):
<substance>
<about_lbl>About</about_lbl>
</substance>
When I run it, it returns my trace statements that the class ChangeLang and the function xmlLoaded are running, but no text appears in the dynamic text field (I should/want to see the word 'About'). I get this error message:
1120: Access of undefined property about_tab
The problem, I'm guessing, is in the part in red in my code. I think I need to target the text field in the display list by creating a reference to it. If so, could someonw point out how I do this, or perhaps a tutorial that would help. I've tried adding the word stage (i.e.,stage.about_tab.text = substance.about_lbl; ) but it still doesn't connect. I guess there's something really simple I'm missing, so I apologize if this comes across as a stupid question
Thanks for any help.

Hello flashrocket!
I'm also new to AS3 and I've just started using external classes and I think I know what you should do to put your code to work.
Instead of using the text field you created inside your flash file, why don't you use the "TextField" class to create an instance of this object? It's the exact same thing as when you create and instantiate a new text field inside Flash.
First, import flash.text.*; (includes classes like TextField, TextFieldAutoSize, TextFormat, TextFormatAlign, etc)
Than you just have to create a var like
public var about_tab : TextField;
or
public var about_tab : TextField = new TextField();
then, to adjust the properties of this tab you use dotsyntax as if it where on your stage like:
about_tab.x = 50; about_tab.alpha = .5; etc...
you can even create a function to "config your textField"
          private function createAndConfigTextField() : void {
               about_tab = new TextField(); //you only need this line if you
          // only typed something like "public var about_tab:TextField;
          // if instead you used "public var about_tab:TextField = new TextField(); outside
          // this function, just skip this first line because you already have an instance of
          // text field named "about_tab"...
                        about_tab.autoSize = TextFieldAutoSize.CENTER;
               about_tab.background = true;
               about_tab.border = true;
               var aboutTextFormat : TextFormat = new TextFormat();
               format.font = "Arial";
               format.color = 0x000000;
               format.size = 11;
               format.bold = true;
               format.align = TextFormatAlign.CENTER;
               about_tab.defaultTextFormat = aboutTextFormat;
               addChild(about_tab);
This is just an example of what you can do... I hope you get it... let me know if you have any doubt...

Issue in loading XML data in BW delta queue

Hello All,
My requirement is to stage small amount of XML data in SAP BW. For doing so, i have followed below steps...
1. Create File data source
2. Define Myself data source using file data source with Function module
3. Initialize load process without no data transfer
4. Using SOAP RFC service, Load xml records in delta queue.
Now in step number 4, i am unable to open the SOAP RFC service using which we can select the xml file.
Any help in this regard will be highly appriciated.
Thanks
Ketan

SOAP/RFC service is already activated. Only problem i am facing is as below.......
1. Created HTML page by copying html snipest
2. On created HTML page, select XML file as an input and URL of SOAP service which is pointing out to the application server
3. When i press "Send recordset" button, HTML page throws "Java script" error and data is not being pushed to BW delta queue....
Please share your ideas to resolve this issue.
Thanks in advance,

How to load the XML data of SAP to a target database

i use an IDocs to read from SAP and converted into XML (ie .XSD ) and now i want to move that XML data to target data base.
i am trying to move XML data to template table, but i am getting this mapping error , even though i used NRDM and mapping while moving to template table.
ERROR MESSAGE :
Invalid mapping expression for column <Query_1.SNDPRN>. Additional information: <Cannot parse expression.
Table <Query.EDI_DC40> for column <SNDPRN> does not occur in the FROM clause. For a top-level query, all columns must belong to some table in the FROM clause.. (BODI-1112351)>. (BODI-1111081)

Hi Srikanth,
Please find my understanding below.Correct me if my understanding is wrong.
1)You have moved the data from IDOC to XML file (i.e Creating an XSD and using it as target).
2)Now this XML file, will you your source and you are going to load it into the target table.
The error looks like BODS is unable to parse the Hierarchy structure to the flat structure.
How are you un-nesting your data (Are you using XML pipeline) .
Thanks
Arun.

Best method to load XML data into Oracle

Hi,
I have to load XML data into Oracle tables. I tried using different options and have run into a dead end in each of those. I do not have knowledge of java and hence have restricted myself to PL/SQL solutions. I tried the following options.
1. Using DBMS_XMLSave package : Expects the ROWSET and ROW tags. Connot change format of the incoming XML file (Gives error oracle.xml.sql.OracleXMLSQLException: Start of root element expected).
2. Using the XMLPARSER and XMLDOM PL/SQL APIs : Works fine for small files. Run into memory problems for large files (Gives error java.lang.OutOfMemoryError). Have tried increasing the JAVA_POOL_SIZE but does not work. I am not sure whether I am changing the correct parameter.
I have read that the SAX API does not hog memory resources since it does not build the entire DOM tree structure. But the problem is that it does not have a PL/SQL implementation.
Can anyone PLEASE guide me in the right direction, as to the best way to achieve this through PL/SQL ??? I have not designed the tables so am flexible on using purely relational or object-relational design. Although would prefer to keep a purely relational design. (Had tried used object-relational for 1. and purely relational for 2. above)
The XML files are in the following format, (EXAMINEEs with single DEMOGRAPHIC and multiple TESTs)
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<Root_Element>
<Examinee>
<MACode>A</MACode>
<TestingJID>TN</TestingJID>
<ExamineeID>100001</ExamineeID>

Thanks for the help.

Please refer to the XSU(XML SQL Utility) or TransX Utility(for Multi-language Document) if you want to load data in XML format into database.
Both of them require special XML formats, please first refer to the following docs:
http://otn.oracle.com/docs/tech/xml/xdk_java/doc_library/Production9i/doc/java/xsu/xsu_userguide.html
http://otn.oracle.com/docs/tech/xml/xdk_java/doc_library/Production9i/doc/java/transx/readme.html
You can use XSLT to transform your document to the required format.
If you document is large, you can use SAX method to insert data into database. But you need to write the code.
The following sample may be useful:

Option to load XML data into BI 70

Hi All,
I have read some postings on forums and also have read the "HOW TO load XML data in BW" guide. I am confused when I read the SAP online help documentation for loading XML data .
Question : Out of the 3 options listed below which option is best suited for loading XML data into BW . XML file is going to be provided by 3rd party company ?
Thanks and appreciate any input .
Smith .
Here is what I found for BI 70 EHP1 help :
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/b2/e50138fede083de10000009b38f8cf/frameset.htm
Data is generally transferred into SAP BW by means of a data request, which is sent from SAP BW to the source system (pull from the scheduler). You can also send the data to SAP BW from outside the system. This is a data push into SAP BW.
A data push is possible for various scenarios:
●     Transferring Data Using the SOAP Service SAP Web AS
●     Transferring Data Using Web Services
●     Transferring Data Using SAP XI
In all three scenarios, data transfer takes place using transfer mechanisms that are sufficient for Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP); the data transfer is also XML-based.
The SOAP-based transfer of data is only possible for flat structures. You cannot transfer hierarchy data.

Hi,
I feel you can go with 2nd option. But still wait for some more inputs from Experts........

How to Pass XML Data to a PDF Form and Load it into form fields

I have xml Form data in a string. I would like open a programatically launch a pdf document and pass the xml data as one of the parameters and this xml data needs to load all the form fields.
Any Idea as to how this can be done?

I have the same requirement as Daminu, but from the research I have been doing it seems your reply is only partially true.
If your PDF is an XFA PDF form, with Reader Extensions enabled, and you want to keep the Reader Extensions functionality for a user to use after your programmatic manipulation, then neither of these tools will work (FDFToolkit or iText).
Upon the user opening the file once it has been programmatically modified, the user will see the following:
From what I have read, this requirement can only be fullfilled by use of LiveCycle Reader Extensions Server? Please confirm?
