[U2] XMAPAppendRec, XMAPToXMLDoc and nested (child) tables
Hi there, I have an issue with retrieving and placing child data into an xml document. I will do my best to explain what the issue is. I have 2 parent records. Within these parent records I have a zip code which is a foreign key. I map to the foreign table to get the description in order to place this in the xml doc. If the zip codes are different, the descriptions come through fine and the xml looks exactly as I expect. If the zip codes are the same then the description is correctly placed on the first parent record but does not appear for the second. Below is an example of what the xml should and and then what it does look like. Different Zip Codes (SuburbName is correctly display on both): ArrayOfPerson PersonDetails PersonId=X1General Title=MR Gender=J Surname=BAUER ZipCode= SuburbName=SUBURB 1// PersonDetails PersonDetails PersonId=X2General Title=MR Gender=H Surname=POTTER ZipCode= SuburbName=SUBURB 2// PersonDetails /ArrayOfPerson Same Zip Codes (SuburbName is only displayed for the first person): ArrayOfPerson PersonDetails PersonId=X1General Title=MR Gender=J Surname=BAUER ZipCode= SuburbName=SUBURB 1// PersonDetails PersonDetails PersonId=X2General Title=MR Gender=H Surname=POTTER ZipCode=// PersonDetails /ArrayOfPerson Has anyone experienced this issue and/or has any suggestions to get this to work correctly?

Re: [U2] Is there any way to tell if I am in an EXECUTE level andCAPTURING is turned on?
UniData Looks like there is no easy solution. Messages are shown in a generic subroutine and I do not want to do a lot of IO or CPU time to determine if CAPTURING is on. The subroutine is called thousands of times a day for a user. For the few times this has happened over the years, I guess I will just fix the problems when they come up.

Re: [U2] Is there any way to tell if I am in an EXECUTE level andCAPTURING is turned on?
You can fillet the fish in another manner. If this is a *subroutine* being *called* then why do you also have an Execute going on? If the Execute...Capturing is the only Execute, then just use @LEVEL and for the level in question (say 3) you do this and if it's less than that, you do that. That would solve the problem without worrying about Capturing at all. -Original Message- From: Doug Farmer dfar...@epicor.com To: U2 Users List u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Sent: Fri, Jun 22, 2012 7:16 am Subject: Re: [U2] Is there any way to tell if I am in an EXECUTE level andCAPTURING is turned on?

Re: [U2] UV Unix File Recovery
I don't know the method it uses, but if figures out what changed in the file and saves just that part. I have a 300gb partition set for our backups, and it can hold apx 8 months of 20 minute interval diff checks Granted, that figure would depend on the size of your database files (I'm not really sure what our base gb Figure is). It doesn't really impact noticeably our system processing speed either when it runs. It either uses rsynch or a modified version of it to determine the differences between the mirror and the Active file - rsynch is pretty fast also. For unix system, it might already be loaded (Redhat has it preloaded), otherwise it's pretty simple to Install, (does require python to be loaded) Load it up, give it a try It does not replace backups - but it does make for those oops moments for restore a file to it's previous State much faster than pulling tapes, assuming you have the incrementals for the time period you want. But to be honest, I've never actually tracked a large file with minor changes to see how large the Change files are.

I like the idea of a 3rd party but it isn't feasible due to the CFO being a penny-pincher. We DO use an outside firm for payroll, and I'd advise against trying to do that processing in house.

Re: [U2] ACH Functionality in ManFact
G-man: NACHA isn't a client/server framework. It's more of a file-formatting framework; like tab-delimited, CSV, XML. So it's, perhaps, inappropriate to apply a client/server analysis to a file-formatting problem. One of the main challenges with NACHA processing is the file has to get to the file-processor. The banking system, generally, is the recipient of the file; so most activity goes through them. Therefore, it is the company's banking relationship that determines how and where the NACHA file is delivered. Again, client/server analytics are ineffective for this issue; which is usually no more than drag'n drop, or upload the file to a web page with an input type='file' textbox. So, you see, the first issue with the process is creating the file (which is the easiest) and the second is how to deliver it to the bank. Many banks have different ways to transmit the file, so for one bank a textbox upload is fine, but for another it's not. :-(The software has to adjust (which makes integration difficult), but it can integrate the file creation because a NACHA file has a standard format. Using someone else for ACH requires your data be replicated elsewhere. This can be automated but it all depends on your banking relationship and presents all of the problems associated with distributing data to disparate systems (it takes more time, money, aggravation, etc). :-) HTH, Bill Untitled Page - Original Message - *From:* 3xk547...@sneakemail.com *To:* u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org *Date:* 6/22/2012 2:16 PM *Subject:* Re: [U2] ACH Functionality in ManFact From: John Varney I've been tasked with writing a bolt on module to give ManFact the ability to utilize ACH processing.

Your database won't even be down a moment. As for minor changes to a 2Gb file, that's where btrfs would come in handy. It's a copy on write filesystem, so when you change a file it only updates the bits that have changed. And it cascades those changes up the hierarchy, so that if you snapshot the file system, it will archive the then-root of the filesystem. All new changes go to a new root. Only thing is, if you want to get back to a previous state of the filesystem (ie retrieve a backup), I understand it's a reboot. But if you had the true mirror on your server, you could run an infinite loop of dbpause, break mirror, dbresume, rsync broken mirror to linux btrfs, snapshot btrfs and restore mirror, wait for mirror to resync, rinse and repeat. It would take an awfully long time to fill up the linux backup server's disk... (rsync is the unix command that will sync two file systems, and it's very good at only updating the parts of files that have changed).
