How to schedule Xtract Universal extractions to load data from SAP

Xtract Universal supports integration of your SAP data in the most different target systems. After creating an extraction (Refer to the online help), you can run an extraction by just calling the correspondent URL that can be found in the Run Dialog (e.g. http://nbelzein:8065/?name=plants)

 

In this blog I will show you how to schedule the run of the Xtract Universal extractions that is as easy as calling a URL. Xtract Universal delivers the command tool XtractUniversalCmd.exe (to be found in the installation folder, e.g. C:\Program Files\XtractUniversal) to run an extraction using the cmd. We will use this approach to schedule an extraction with the windows Task Scheduler and the SQL Server Agent.
