It makes perfect sense. There are a lot of limitations when using the Remedy ODBC driver; and the only way to work around it is to use another means of access.
Remedy will allow it, but you have to be careful in what you do, as there can be consequences to your actions: - if you run a report that takes 4 hours to complete against the db; chances are your app server is going to come to a halt or close to it - if you run a report that creates locks on a bunch of rows, you could hang your app ...

** Classification: UNCLASSIFIED Caveats: NONE The question is: Does it make sense to access Remedy database directly through SQL calls. This would be utilizing the "T" tables, etc. structure. Does anyone out there have white papers which say this is a good thing or a bad thing? Does it make sense to access a Remedy Database such as Oracle directly using a tool other than ODBC or one of the common Remedy Integration methods? Does BMC/Remedy legally allow this type of access?
