Hi Experts,

 

There is a requirement to automate the process to upload the data from external DB(SAP) into IFS FSM DB. 

I know that we can use folder listener to achieve this requirement.

Is there a better way to achieve this than folder listener option?

 

Thanks,

Hasara

Hi @Hasara Dinu ,

It would entirely depend on what is being copied, how closely it matches FSM table structure, how often change would be sent and the size of each upload.

Kind regards,

Hi @Hasara Dinu ,

I think T-Tables will be a better option in this case. T-tables can be used in order to import data from a table on an outside system to FSM.
Any table in FSM has related T-table starting with “T_”. The data from the external table has to be copied to the relevant t-table. 
Once data copied to T-table, it can be seen from the T-table editor.
Next, the entries in the T-table can be added to the actual table by using import functionality (perform_import_from_t_table). You might be able to create a scheduled process to import from t-table. 

You can refer to below post for more details.
