Hi,
I'm looking to write an app that extracts info from the CMS. This will get just all the users and user groups, and it will get all the reports and their paths. I can worry about getting more later. Maybe I can deploy it once and it will update nightly. I was going to write it in Java and not .NET, I feel a bit more comfortable in Java. Although I do love Visual Studio, the last couple times I set it up it was a real pain if I didn't have the latest and greatest MSDN subscription to go with it.
1. I know I can just create an application that sits on the BOE box and schedule it with windows scheduler. Has anyone done this before with an SAP BI SDK app?
2. While I appreciate knowing all the possible ways of doing something, I'm not looking here to get all of the ways to do this. Unless there is a single best practice that pretty much everyone does.
Thanks!
