Search Subdirectories

We have a new ERP system that uses a Progress OpenEdge backend. A project manager will type in a CAD file number, and the system will pull in metadata (e.g. dimensions, materials, machine routing, etc.) from the appropriate ArtiosCAD file previously created by a designer on a FreeBSD file server. The ERP vendor says the system can only search in one directory for CAD files, and cannot search subdirectories. This is a problem, as the designers have hundreds of thousands of CAD files stored by client, year, job and job type. Either we figure out a way to automatically copy newl

How Business Intelligence and GIS are becoming more integrated.

We recently interviewed Yellowfin CEO Glen Rabie to find out more about this topic and why Yellowfin Business Intelligence with spatial data is so much more than just Google Maps. Q. How does GIS integrated with BI differ from the traditional GIS approach? A. A typical spatial specialists appr

Vantage temporary files - safe to delete?

Greetings, I'm working with a company who is using an older version of Vantage (6.10). I've noticed that several users have numerious temporary files in their epicor working directories (under \epicor\mfgwrk61). Most of these files begin with a letter sequence of either DBI, LBI or SRT. Some of these files are quite huge. In cases where drive space is becoming limited, am I safe to delete these files periodically? Should I keep files with recent creation dates (files less than a week old), or can I delete these files without regard to their dates? If these files are t

Location Intelligence where to from here?

Location Intelligence where to from here? Most people have heard of location intelligence tools such as Google Maps, or Geographic Information Systems (GIS). Indeed, mapping technology is used everywhere and can be accessed easily online, from a phone, and on the road. But can these applications be used successfully in a business information and reporting context? The short answer is yes. Although it is early days, the marriage between location and business intelligence software is being seen by many commentators as a highly productive long-term relationship, rather than just a temp

Yellowfin discusses Consolidation and its impact on the Business Intelligence Market

The past year has seen a huge amount of activity in BI Tool consolidation. We have continued to comment on this activity but now at last we have the release of a Gartner Report that comments on these changes and spells out what this means for the industry and BI customers as a whole. According to Gartner the business intelligence (BI) market is in a state of flux. Whilst they see this as a threat to the long-term existence of a separate set of vendors in the market, it's also an opportunity for BI to deliver more value to users. As companies incorporate BI into their eco-systems by
