Some tabs have multiple slides. Arrow icons below the tabs can be clicked to navigate to the next slide

Tabs across the top of each page show the installation procedure. When viewed in “slideshow” mode or “reading view” these tabs can be clicked to navigate through the process.

The process is intended to be completed by proceeding from left-to-right through the Execution of the project. After this step, the order of the process doesn’t matter.

Some tabs are specific to an ERP system (NAV, AX or GP). Follow these steps only if you are connecting to the specified ERP system.

Determine SQL Collation

Pre-Installation Checklist 1 of 2To ensure a fast and successful deployment, please complete the following checklist

• The operating system on the server must be Microsoft Windows Server 2003, 2008 or 2008 R2.

• The latest available Service Packs should be installed for the operating system.

• Note – for demonstration purposes the Jet Data Manager can be installed on a desktop or laptop running Windows XP, Vista or Windows 7.

Confirm the operating system on the server meets minimum requirements

• This is required to install the Jet Data ManagerConfirm the Server has Internet Access

• Standard or Enterprise version of SQL Server 2005 or 2008 must be installed with the latest service packs.

• If using SQL 2008, backwards compatibility tools are required• If using SQL 2008 R2, this KB might be needed http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2315727/

• The following components must be installed:

• Database Engine• Integration Services (SSIS)• Analysis Services (SSAS)

Confirm the SQL server components are installed with the latest service packs

• Note – this step can be skipped for NAV databases hosted on Native NAV servers.• A 32bit machine will be running 32bit version of SQL Server. • A 64bit machine may be running either 32bit or 64bit version of SQL Server.

Check whether SQL Server is 32bit or 64bit Details

Pre-Installation Checklist 2 of 2To ensure a fast and successful deployment, please complete the following checklist

• The latest version of Microsoft .NET Framework (v4.0 or later) must be installed• This may be available at• http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?familyid=9cfb2d51-5ff4-4491-b0e5-b386f

32c0992

Confirm that .NET v4.0 or later is installed

• This login needs to have sysadmin rights on the SQL server. • This login needs to have db_owner role or Super (Data) rights on the Dynamics NAV database.• A best practice is to set up a utility user that is part of the domain and serves to run the

scheduled updates as well as make changes in the Jet Data Manager.

Set up a utility user with appropriate rights

• The “Log On As” properties for SSAS and SSIS must be set to be the same Local System Administrator as will be used when installing the Jet Data Manager (ideally the utility user defined in the previous step). These services can’t be running as “Network” or “Local” services.

• The Database Engine, Integration Services (SSIS) and Analysis Services (SSAS) must be started

Set the “Log on As” properties of SQL services and ensure they are

started

• Note – this step is only required for NAV databases on Native serversFor Native NAV servers – Confirm

that the ODBC driver has been installed and properly configured

• Make sure you have sufficient privileges in AX to access the Application Object Tree (AOT)For Dynamics AX Installations – ensure sufficient privileges in AX

OLAP (Cube) Security1 of 5

OLAP Security is defined within the Jet Data Manager.

By default the user ID which was used to create the project in the Data Warehouse has access to the Cube data from Excel. Permission must be granted to all other user IDs to allow access.

To define your OLAP security you will need to set the “show advanced features” setting to Yes.

• Click Tools

• Click Windows and Menu settings

• Change the Show Advanced Features setting to Yes

OLAP (Cube) Security3 of 5 – Cube Level Permissions

Added IDs will show up in this area

Security can be defined at any level shown here (Cubes, measure, dimensions, members).

It is usually best to start from the cube level by selecting Cubes

Select the desired access rights for each ID. The most useful security options at the Cube level are:

None – this prevents the user from accessing this level of data

Read – this allows the user to read information from the Cube

Read with Drillthrough – this allows the user to read information from the cube and drill down to see underlying data in Standard Measures.

When a user is granted read access to a Cube they get access rights to all measures and dimensions of that Cube by default. The following slides describe how to define user access at the measure and dimension level


Download Files







OLAP (Cube) Security4 of 5 – Dimension Level Permissions

If the permissions are global, meaning they should apply to multiple cubes where the dimension is used, then select the Dimension below the list of 6 Cubes.

Security options on Dimensions are:

None – this prevents the user from seeing the data by this dimension

Read - this allows the user to group or slice data by this dimension

The permission for this dimension on each individual cube will default to ‘Inherited’.

If the permissions are specific for a single cube, then select the Dimension for the appropriate cube.

Security options on Dimensions are:

Inherited– this inherits the security rights of this Dimension as defined on a Global basis.

NoInheritance- does not inherit the security rights of the Dimension on a Global basis.

There are two ways of setting up user permissions on Dimensions in the Jet Data Manager:

OLAP (Cube) Security5 of 5 – Dimension Value and Measure Permissions

Security options on Measures are

None – this prevents the user from accessing this data

Inherited– this inherits the Cube level security rights

Security options on Dimensions Values are:

None – this prevents the user from accessing this level of data

Read - this allows the user to group or slice data by this dimension

Inherited– this inherits the security rights of the Dimension as set on a global basis

Additionally the security option to Enable Visual Total allows the user to see a total of all members in the dimension – even if they don’t have read rights to all of the members. This can be set to Yes or No

When finished defining OLAP Server security rights select Deploy Rights and OK

Your project can be scheduled to automatically update with the most recent information from your data source. This update will refresh the data in your Cubes, Data Warehouse and Staging Database.

The update strategy outlined in these slides will have the entire project be refreshed every night. This is one of the simplest and the most common update strategy used.

During the time that the Cubes are being refreshed they will not be available to the users.

Prior to setting up an Execution package the first time you will need to start the Jet Data Manager Server Scheduler service.

There are three steps to create an Execution package:

1) Define Notifications - Notifications are a way to send an email to advise a whether the project has successfully executed on schedule.

2) Define Execution Package– All or part of the project can be updated in a package. Sophisticated update strategies may include multiple Execution packages

3) Schedule

Scheduling an Automatic Execution Package2 of 5 Starting the Jet Data Manager Scheduler Service


Download Files







During the installation process there is a service installed on the local machine that controls the execution packages. These execution packages handle the regular updates made to the data warehouse and the cubes. To configure the service, open the Services window for the server. This can generally be accessed through the Start menu by typing Services in the search bar and selecting Services from the list that is returned.

On the General tab the Startup Type should be set to “Automatic (Delayed Start)”.

If this is not available due to older versions of Windows

Server then “Automatic” should be selected.

Right click the Jet Data Manager Server Scheduler service and click Start. The

service should start normally

If you receive a message that the service started and then stopped the most common cause is that the JDM configuration files have not been created for service account that was specified to start the service. The solution is to log on to the server using this service account, open the Jet Data Manager, and point to the project repository when prompted. This will create the configuration files required by the service account. You can now log off and log back on as the original user. You should now be able to Right click the Jet Data Manager Server Scheduler service and click Start. The service should start normally properly start the service.

Select the Log On tab, click the button for This account, and enter a service account and password.

Right click the Jet Data Manager Server Scheduler service and select “Properties”.

Scheduling an Automatic Execution Package3 of 5 - Define Notifications

The Execution package is defined under the Execution tab in the Jet Data Manager

To Define a Notification:

• Right-click Notification and select Add Notification

• Type a name for the notification

Execution Failed and Execution Success are commonly used here

• Select whether to notify via Mail, EventLog or Both

• Specify the server name that the email will go out on

This is generally an smtp server or an exchange server

• Specify who the email will come from

• Specify who the email will go to (and any cc’s)

• Select Test Notification to ensure the process is working

• Select OK when finished

Troubleshooting Errors in the NAV Adapter Setup

Errors in the NAV Adapter Setup process are rare but can occur. The error will generally come in the form of a SQL error and will contain the name of the table that contains the error. Once this table has been identified the following steps will be taken to exclude it from the list of objects that is processed. In most cases it will relate to a custom NAV table that is linked to a SQL view.

• Open the Object Designer in NAV and locate the table in which the issue occurred.

For the purpose of this example we will assume that it is Table ID 25003

• Re-run the Adapter Setup form. In the last window you will have the ability to exclude this object

• Click Ok and it will re-run the NAV Adapter process without processing this particular object

• Repeat the process for any other objects that cause an error

• Upon successful completion close the Adapter Setup window

• The installation is now complete

It is rare that an object will cause an issue and even more rare that this object will be required in reporting. If the object is pertinent please contact us at [email protected] and we will be happy to assist
