Replicate SAP Business One Data to Multiple Databases


Replicate SAP Business One data to disparate databases with a single configuration.

Always-on applications rely on automatic failover capabilities and real-time access to data. CData Sync for SAP Business One integrates live SAP Business One data into your mirrored databases, always-on cloud databases, and other databases such as your reporting server: Automatically synchronize with remote SAP Business One data from Windows or any machine running Java.

You can use Sync's command-line interface (CLI) to easily control almost all aspects of the replication. You can use the CLI to replicate SAP Business One data to one or many databases without any need to change your configuration.

Connect to SAP Business One Data

You can save connection strings and other settings like email notifications in XML configuration files.

The following example shows how to replicate to SQLite.

Windows

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?> <CDataSync><DatabaseType>SQLite</DatabaseType> <DatabaseProvider>System.Data.SQLite</DatabaseProvider> <ConnectionString>Url=http://localhost:50000/b1s/v1;User=username;Password=password;CompanyDB=dbname;</ConnectionString> <ReplicateAll>False</ReplicateAll> <NotificationUserName></NotificationUserName> <DatabaseConnectionString>Data Source=C:\my.db</DatabaseConnectionString> <TaskSchedulerStartTime>09:51</TaskSchedulerStartTime> <TaskSchedulerInterval>Never</TaskSchedulerInterval> </CDataSync>

Java

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?> <CDataSync><DatabaseType>SQLite</DatabaseType><DatabaseProvider>org.sqlite.JDBC</DatabaseProvider> <ConnectionString>Url=http://localhost:50000/b1s/v1;User=username;Password=password;CompanyDB=dbname;</ConnectionString> <ReplicateAll>False</ReplicateAll> <NotificationUserName></NotificationUserName> <DatabaseConnectionString>Data Source=C:\my.db</DatabaseConnectionString> </CDataSync>

To authenticate to SAP Business One you must provide the Userand Passwordproperties.

To connect to data, specify Url. This is your SAP Business One Service Layer root URL.

Configure Replication Queries

Sync enables you to control replication with standard SQL. The REPLICATE statement is a high-level command that caches and maintains a table in your database. You can define any SELECT query supported by the SAP Business One API. The statement below caches and incrementally updates a table of SAP Business One data:

REPLICATE Orders;

You can specify a file containing the replication queries. This enables you to use the same replication queries to replicate to several databases.

Run Sync

After you have configured the connection strings and replication queries, you can run Sync with the following command-line options:

Windows

SAPBusinessOneSync.exe -g MySQLiteConfig.xml -f SAPBusinessOneSync.sql

Java

java -Xbootclasspath/p:c:\sqlitejdbc.jar -jar SAPBusinessOneSync.jar -g MySQLiteConfig.xml -f SAPBusinessOneSync.sql
