Hi, does someone know a forum for cubeware importer in english or german? The project in scope will use MS Navision and TM1 but not TI.
TIA and regards,
Marcus

Re: cubeware importer
Cubeware support are generally pretty good. I don't know of a forum as such other than the Palo sub forum for 3rd party tools.
Why no TI? Importer is a very nice graphical interface and a mature tool but TI is about an order of magnitude faster and sometimes a couple of lines of script is more efficient than lots of Imp mappings.

Re: cubeware importer
Thanks lotsaram,
of course I prefer TI as well, but in this case importer is already in place, maybe I'll convince the client to invest some EUR.

Re: cubeware importer
Although Importer lacks the raw speed of TI, I found from experience that it is easier to get to grips with for end-users (visual mapping versus scripting).lotsaram wrote:Why no TI?

Nice feature in Importer is the fact that you can directly load data from a cube on one server to a cube on another server - where the cube on server one could even be a TM1 cube and on server two a PALO or MSAS cube. Another nice feature is the migration wizard that helps you migrate (cross-generate) your model (metadata) from one platform to another (f.i. from MSAS to TM1, TM1 to PowerOLAP, PALO to TM1, etc.).
