Zenworks Inventory Data Export

I am trying to get a report of our current systems using the Zenworks
Inventory Data Export as shown in edir.
When I run the export it also shows systems we have deleted. I am
running
zfd 4.01 sp2.
Is there a way to get a report on only the systems that are in edir or
filter it for only current systems?
Thanks,
Paul

Exporting Inventory Data

Is it possible to export inventory data to a different application? We are
using Sybase. I would to have an in house custom developed application
retrieve data directly from Sybase. Is this possible? How?
Thanks,
Thomas

one simple way is to create a CSV file http://www.novell.com/documentation/...a/bqe95x3.html

What rights are needed to do a Data Export?

I would like someone from our help desk to be able to do Data-->Export
in Console1 to export inventory data regularly. When they try this,
they immediately get the following error:
Data Export will not proceed. Unable to identify the type of
installation.
I saw TID 10088974 but I don't think it applies because if I login to
the same PC, it works. (Running Console1 locally).
I also saw another TID indicating user needs Browse rights to the
ZEN_invDatabase object. [Public] does have rights to this.
What rights do I need to grant?

Inventory data not matching with R/3

Hi,
In R/3 production we have the data from 1999-Till date.From 1999-2004 Data was archieved in R/3 system.So we have two years live data in the R/3 production.
We have filled the setup tables and extracted the Inventory data then loaded into 0IC_C03 Cube.
But the values in BW report from 0IC_C03 is not matching with the values in R/3 report.
1.What could be the reason?
2.If we need to extract the archieved data from R/3 what are the steps we need to do?.
Pls help us with your suggestions.

We have followed as per the How to handle inventory managment document.
The quanity value is matching between R/3 and BW.But the Valuated Stock Value is not matching for some of the materials.For the current period it showing the right value(for ex.if we check for 12th Month).
But If we check the material for old months like October,Aug the value of valuated stock value is not matching with R/3 for some of the materials.
In RSDV validity table date maintained from 1999-Dec'200.
We are using the standard business content cubes and update rules.Is there any change needs to be done in update rules for 0IC_C03 cube to get the right values for all the materials?..
Pls help with your inputs.
Thanks

Deploying custom report for custom hardware inventory data.

Hi!
I want do the following:
1) Extend Hardware Inventory using my own *.mof file. Like,
#pragma namespace ("\\\\.\\root\\cimv2\\SMS")
[ SMS_Report (TRUE),
SMS_Group_Name ("My Inventory"),
SMS_Class_ID ("CUSTOM|My_Inventory|4.0") ]
class My_Inventory : SMS_Class_Template
[SMS_Report(TRUE)] string SerialNumber;
[SMS_Report(TRUE)] string SomeData;
2) Extend Reporting system with my own report that will use data from custom hardware inventory. For example, joins inventoried data with SCCM resources.
3) Deploy 1) and 2) programmatically to any sccm installation. So, report should not be linked to concrete data source or report server url.
If you know the tools that may help me, it will be very helpful! Many thanks!

You should ask the .rdl part from the SQL Reporting services forums, you should get better answers from there, because this isn't purely a ConfigMgr issue.

2LIS_03_BX- Initial Stock/Material stock
2LIS_03_BF - Material movements
2LIS_03_UM - Revaluations/Find the price of the stock
The first DataSource (2LIS_03_BX) is used to extract an opening stock balance on a
detailed level (material, plant, storage location and so on). At this moment, the opening
stock is the operative stock in the source system. "At this moment" is the point in time at
which the statistical setup ran for DataSource 2LIS_03_BX. (This is because no
documents are to be posted during this run and so the stock does not change during this
run, as we will see below). It is not possible to choose a key date freely.
The second DataSource (2LIS_03_BF) is used to extract the material movements into
the BW system. This DataSource provides the data as material documents (MCMSEG
structure).
The third of the above DataSources (2LIS_03_UM) contains data from valuated
revaluations in Financial Accounting (document BSEG). This data is required to update
valuated stock changes for the calculated stock balance in the BW. This information is
not required in many situations as it is often only the quantities that are of importance.
This DataSource only describes financial accounting processes, not logistical ones. In
other words, only the stock value is changed here, no changes are made to the
quantities. Everything that is subsequently mentioned here about the upload sequence
and compression regarding DataSource 2LIS_03_BF also applies to this DataSource.
This means a detailed description is not required for the revaluation DataSource.

Essbase Data Export not Overwriting existing data file

We have an ODI interface in our environment which is used to export the data from Essbase apps to text files using Data export calc scripts and then we load those text files in a relational database. Laetely we are seeing some issue where the Data Export calc script is not overwriting the file and is just appending the new data to the existing file.
The OverWriteFile option is set to ON.
SET DATAEXPORTOPTIONS {
     DataExportLevel "Level0";
     DataExportOverWriteFile ON;
DataExportDimHeader ON;
     DataExportColHeader "Period";
     DataExportDynamicCalc ON;
The "Scenario" variable is a substitution variable which is set during the runtime. We are trying to extract "Budget" but the calc script is not clearing the "Actual" scenario from the text file which was the scenario that was extracted earlier. Its like after the execution of the calc script, the file contains both "Actual" and "Budget" data. We are not able to find the root cause as in why this might be happening and why OVERWRITEFILE command is not being taken into account by the data export calc script.
We have also deleted the text data file to make sure there are no temporary files on the server or anything. But when we ran the data export directly from Essbase again, then again the file contained both "Actual" as well as "Budget" data which really strange. We have never encountered an issue like this before.
Any suggestions regarding this issue?

Did some more testing and pretty much zoomed on the issue. Our Scenario is actually something like this "Q1FCST-Budget", "Q2FCST-Budget" etc
This is the reason why we need to use a member function because Calc Script reads "&ODI_SCENARIO" (which is set to Q2FCST-Budget) as a number and gives an error. To convert this value to a string we are using @member function. And, this seems the root cause of the issue. The ODI_Scenario variable is set to "Q2FCST-Budget", but when we run the script with this calculation function @member("&ODI_SCENARIO"), the data file brings back the values for "Q1FCST-Budget" out of nowhere in addition to "Q2FCST-Budget" data which we are trying to extract.
Successful Test Case 1:
1) Put Scenario "Q2FCST-Budget" in hard coded letters in Script and ran the script
e.g "Q2FCST-Phased"
2) Ran the Script
3) Result Ok.Script overwrote the file with Q2FCST-Budget data
Successful Case 2:
1) Put scenario in @member function
e.g. @member("Q2FCST-Budget")
2) Results again ok
Failed Case:
1) Deleted the file
2) Put scenario in a substitution variable and used the member function "@member("&ODI_Scenario") and Ran the script . *ODI_SCENARIO is set to Q@FCST-Budget in Essbase variables.
e.g. @member("&ODI_SCENARIO")
3) Result : Script contained both "Q1FCST-Budget" as well as "Q2FCST-Budget" data values in the text file.
We are still not close to the root cause and why is this issue happening. Putting the sub var in the member function changes the complete picture and gives us inaccurate results.
Any clues anyone?

Automatise data export from website

Hello,
I stuck with an issue regarding data export from scopus.com. I have 61 keywords for which I want to export (as csv) number of documents by year, country, document type, subject area. Doing that by hand would be extremely tedious. Thus my question if this can be automatised. Unfortunately scopus does not provide an API to access the data directly.
So, the process to be automatised would be:
1. Open http://www.scopus.com/home.url
2. Enter the keyword in "search for"
3. Click on "search"
4. Click on "Analyze results"
5. Click on tab "year" and "export". Save the file
6. Click on tab "country" and "export". Save the file
6. Click on tab "document type" and "export". Save the file
6. Click on "subject area" and "export". Save the file
Do programs exist that help me retrieving the data?
Thanks!

You could achieve your goal with bash and wget with some combination of --save-cookies --post-data.
But be aware that scopus is run by Elsevier, whom many view as the most evil of the publishing companies. Think twice before doing something that may annoy them.

Unable to stop incorrect date exports

How do we set up a form in Adobe Acrobat XI that allows dates to be formatted a certain way (mmm/dd/yyyy) and exported in the same way to Excel and always be recognized as a "proper" date in Excel?
Currently the following does not work (Attempt #1):
Set up a field; Set the format category as date; Set up a Custom format of "mmm/dd/yyyy"
Create a distribution file
When users fill out the form if they type in an incorrect date, eg., "August 27 2013", the form automagically shows the date on the PDF as "Aug/27/13" - Great!
When the users submit the form and it's brought into the response file the dates are shown in a default date format of mm/dd/yyyy - Fine, once the form owners understand this
When the form owners export the information the data exported is the same as the original users entered it, not as it was automagically formatted to. For instance, if submitters originally entered "August 27, 2013" then that's what goes across to Excel. And some of these formats Excel doesn't know how to convert. - Understandably frustrating for form owners
Attempt #2: As a workaround we set up special formatting that has a mask of "AAA/99/9999". This at least provides forces the users to use the same formatting, but is confusing the submitters when they need to enter dates from 1-9 and we've also found that the conversion of this format to a date in Excel doesn't work, but at least it's consistent! Javascript was also added to force users to use specific month abbreviations.
d = new Date(event.value.replace(/-/g, " "));
if (!Date.parse(d)){app.alert("Please enter in a proper date.\n\nThe month abbreviations are: Jan, Feb, Mar, Apr, May, Jun, Jul, Aug, Sep, Oct, Nov, Dec");}
Attempt #3: The last attempt was to continue to use the set up as Attempt #1, but to also use the javascript from Attempt #2. The theory being that if a user entered in "August 27 2013" the javascript would complain. Alas, the javascript appears to run after Adobe automagically does its date format conversion.
Does anyone know how to get around this or have any other ideas to either enforce a usable date format or have Adobe export the dates as they've been automatically formatted to? We've tried to find a way to turn off the automatic date conversion that Adobe's running, but haven't found a way yet. Another option seemed to be to allow a masking that allowed for optional characters (so that the "0" wouldn't be needed for the dates 1-9) but there doesn't seem to be one.
Thanks in advance!

Since there was no clear way to ensure that the date formatting was correct prior to exporting, we're going to get the respondants to use drop downs to ensure the formatting is correct. Not the most convenient for the users though as they're accustomed to being able to type in the values to select it (e.g., for the date of 23 they would expect to enter 2 then 3 for 23) based on other applications, but the Adobe pull downs don't "group" what's been entered (e.g., 2 then 3 will select 30, not 23) and so it will take them a bit to get used to it. I still can't believe that Adobe wouldn't simply export what it's been formatted to though... after all that's what we set the form up for.

Inventory data load from Inventory Cube to another Copy Cube

Hello Experts,
I am trying to load Inventory data from the Inventory cube(say YCINV) to a copy cube say YCOPY_CINV(copy of Inventory cube), but the results appear inconsistant when I compare the reports on these 2 cubes. I am trying to populate a fiield in copy cube so that I can populate the same data back to the original cube with the new field in it, I am doing this reload back and forth for historical data purpose only.
I have seen lot of posts as how to run the setups for Inventory data, but my case does not need to perform set up runs.
Does the note 1426533 solve the issue of loading from one cube to another ? we are on SAP BI 7.01 with SP 06 ,but the note specifies SP 07 ?
I have tried note 375098 to see if it works, but I do not see the options as mentioned from step "Using DTP (BW 7.x)" in BI to perform this note
Please advise on whether to go with implementing note 1426533 or is there any other way to load inventory data from one cube to other.
Regards,
JB

Hi Luis,
Thanks for your reply,
I do not see any setting like Intial stock in DTP except "initial non-cumulative for non- cumulative". I did try using the option "initial non-cumulative for non- cumulative" ,but the results still do not match with the inventory cube data.I do not see the check box for marker in the copy cube (under roll up tab). Please let me know if we can really implement this solution ,i.e. copying from inventory cube to copy cube and then re-loading it back to inventory cube for historical data. Currenlty, I am comparing the queries on these 2 cubes, if the data matches then I can go ahead and implement it in Production, other wise it would not be wise to do so .
Regards,
JB

Open hub for Inventory data

Experts,
We have a requirement where we need to push out Inventory data from BW to third party systems.
We have a daily cube and monthly snapshot cube implemented.
Now, there are fields that the third party systems require including Movement type. There are 500K movements everyday so putting this field in the cube would make the cube huge. Can we have another DSO loaded only by 2LIS_03_BF that supplies data to the third party systems via Open Hub in addition to the model we currently have?
Would this be a good design or rather would it work(in theory)??

Hi,
Yes you are thinking in correct direction. Adding movement type to cube will unneccessarily increase the data volume.
Cubes are not meant for detailed data.
I would suggest to go ahead with the DSO approach. The open hub will work with DSO.
Regards,
Geetanjali

Marker update for Inventory data sources

Hi all,
why we use marker update in Cube manage for inventory data sources at the time of loading?
i heard that to avoid the keyfigures cumulation we do check that option ,is that correct/
please clear my doubt
thx

HI
(2LIS_03_BF Goods Movement From Inventory Management-------Unckeck the no marker update tab)

Requirement to get Inventory data at the Daily level (non-cumulative KF)

Hello All,
Kindly provide ur suggesstions on the issue mentioned below:
We require the Inventory data at a daily level. Also we require that the non-cumulatve Key Figures such as 0TOTALSTOCK, etc. be available to us in the BW itself, since this is required for further processing.
PS: Right now we are using RSCRM_BAPI to execute the qurey and store the data into a table, but it fails for non-cumulative keyfigures. Kindly suggest if ther are other ways which can suffice the requirement mentioned above.
Thank you.

I have not done any chnages in the script inside the task .
But when i run the package , I have selected a dimension 'Entity' but in second prompt ,it ask for a transformation file , and syatem autometically add the file ... \ROOT\WEBFOLDERS\COLPAL\FINANCE\DATAMANAGER\TRANSFORMATIONFILES\Import.xls
I have not changed anything there
in the next prmpt , it ask for a output file ..and it won't allow me enter the file name .....i
Not sure how to proceed further.
I shall be greatfull if someone guide me from your experiance how to set up a simple the data manager package for master data export from dimension . Should I update the transformation file in the script for import file and output file in the advance tab. how and what transformation file to be created and link to the data manager package for export / import .
What are the steps to be executed to run the package for exporting master data from dimension and import it another application .
Thanks in advance for your guidance.
Thanks and Regards,

1. Perhaps you want to consider a system copy to a "virtual system" for UAT?
2. Changes in QAS (as with PROD as well) will give you the delta. They should ideally be clean... You need to check the source system.
Another option is to generate the profiles in the target system. But for that your config has to be sqeaky clean and in sync, including very well maintained and sync'ed Su24 data.

Julius
