Viewing SAP ByDesign データ in RAD Studio Data Explorer

How to view SAP ByDesign データ in RAD Studio Data Explorer using the CData ODBC Driver for SAP ByDesign.

最終更新日：2023-06-12

Embarcadero RAD Studio provides a development environment for Delphi and C++Builder applications. With the CData ODBC Driver for SAP ByDesign, you gain access to live SAP ByDesign データ within RAD Studio, abstracting the data into tables, views, and stored procedures that can be used to both retrieve SAP ByDesign データ. This article will walk through connecting to SAP ByDesign using the Data Explorer.

Configure a Connection to SAP ByDesign

If you have not already, first specify connection properties in an ODBC DSN (data source name). This is the last step of the driver installation. You can use the Microsoft ODBC Data Source Administrator to create and configure ODBC DSNs.

SAP ByDesign に接続するには、次の接続プロパティを設定します。

Url: SAP ByDesign サイトのURL に設定。例：https://test.sapbydesign.com
User: アカウントのユーザー名に設定。
Password: アカウントのパスワードに設定。
CustomService or AnalyticsService: いずれか一方のみを指定する必要があります。データを取得するカスタムサービスがある場合はCustomService を指定します。アナリティクスサービスのレポートを取得する場合はAnalyticsService を指定します。どちらも指定されていない場合は、'cc_home_analytics.svc' がAnalyticsService プロパティのデフォルトとして使用されます。指定するサービスがわからない場合は、Services ビューをクエリして利用可能なサービスを一覧表示できます。

Connecting to SAP ByDesign データ Using Data Explorer

You can create a simple application for displaying SAP ByDesign データ by utilizing the CData FireDAC Components for SAP ByDesign and a new VCL Forms Application:

Open the Data Explorer in RAD Studio and expand FireDAC.
Right-click the ODBC Data Source node in the Data Explorer.
Click Add New Connection.
Enter a name for the connection.
In the FireDAC Connection Editor that appears, set the DataSource property to the name of the ODBC DSN for SAP ByDesign.
Back in the Data Explorer, expand the views for the connection.
Create a new VCL Forms application and drag a view (for example: [Inventory Balance]) onto the form.
Select the [Inventory Balance]View object on the form and set the Active property to true.
Right-click on the object, bind visually, and link everything (*) to a new control (TStringGrid).
Arrange the TStringGrid on the form and run the application to see the [Inventory Balance] data.
