MDO Connector

A connector used to run queries against manufacturing data objects (MDO). For more information, see Connectors and Manufacturing Data Object.

You can have only one active MDO connector. If you want to use multiple MDO data sources where each data source has a different DateTime value, do the following:

Set up the desired number of MDO JDBC data sources on the SAP NetWeaver server.
Specify the server on the System Properties screen in the MDO Data Sourcefield.
Enable the MDO connector with the appropriate DateTime prefix or suffix settings.
Disable the other MDO connectors.

Structure

The MDO connector has the following properties on the Connection tab on the Data Servers screen:

Property	Use
Date Prefix	Defines the prefix used when working with DateTime database columns
Date Suffix	Defines the suffix used when working with DateTime database columns
Internal Date Format	Defines the format used when working with DataTime database columns
Max. Retry Count	Used for data buffering. Number of times the system retries the execution attempt before stopping.
Retention Days	Used for data buffering. For more information, see Data Buffer. Number of days the execution attempt remains in the data buffer before being removed
Retry Interval	Used for data buffering. Number of milliseconds the system waits before retrying the execution attempt.

Integration

You must enter an associated MDO data source on the System Properties screen. To do so, on the SAP MII administration menu, choose Start of the navigation path System Management Next navigation step System Properties. End of the navigation path

You use the MDO connector when you create an MDO query. For more information, see MDO Query.
