QUESTION POSED ON: 07 June 2007
I've had SEM data in an infoprovider for a few years. The user wants to retrieve the previous year's data only from the infoprovider. For this the daily job will be triggered through process chain. This means that whenever the process runs, the previous year's SEM data needs to be pulled from the infoprovider. Is there any way to manage this in the Infospoke selection criteria?

EXPERT RESPONSE
Infospoke uses fields from an infoprovider. You at least need to have the date field in your infoprovider. If you do not have any dates, you will need to develop them in your DEV system and transport.
