Logical data Model Using ODI

Can I create Logical data Model Using ODI ? If yes how can I do it ?

User,
ODI is not a tool to design. It's a comprehensive integration platform.
However if you would like to model your data, you can use for example Oracle Designer 9i, which is availble one the Oacle website for free.
Oracle 10gR2 Designer is also availble at: http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/designer/htdocs/winsoft.html
Good luck.

Reverse engg data store using ODI SDK

how to I reverse engineer a data store and not a model using ODI SDK
Is there any class for reverse engg? Or should I use KM's?

When I reverse engg my delimited or fixed file, I am able to see the data of datastore; I used same datastore in interface
Yes , I used the data store in interface using code(sdk)
I am not doing anything manually in studio; everything is done through java code (using sdk)...but I have checked data of datastore by right clicking on it, its giving proper data
filedescriptor contains start position and num of bytes
your text file is looks like FIXED format,
my Delimited format text file:
empNo,empName
1,Deepa
2,Deepali
3,Patil
4,Deeps
and FIXED format text file:

if file format is Delimited we need not to worry about physical length or logical length, bcoz we are able to do reverse engg for that; which automatically set all fields
odiColumn.setLength(length); method sets both physical and logical length

Identify Entities for Logical Data Model

Hi,
I donno exactly this is the correct forum for this question. I believe there are database experts here to help me on this.
I am in confusion that, phsically the data can be saved in a set of tables (4-5 tables). But different views (User Interfaces) and reports can be created from these tables.
Assume that,
View1 - Uses all tables
View2 - uses only 3 tables
View3 - uses only 1 table
Report 1 - uses only 2 tables
Report 2 - uses only 4 tables
Should my Logical Data Model reflect all these view1, view2, view3, Reprt1 and Report2?
How exactly do we need to identify the entities for Logical Data Model?
Could you please any one help me on this?
Thanks & Regards

sorry, i couldnt understand your query..

Creating Time dimension in BW data model. - like seen in logical data model

Hello all,
I have been struggling with this thing and I am looking for some help from anyone on this forum.
We are trying to create a logical data model of our bw system. We are going live next month with Student module for universities. We have multiple Infocubes and DSO and since there is so much crossing over in between them most of the reporting is done on infosets.
One of the thing we were thinking; is it possible to create something like a common time dimension table for every infoprovider. Basically when we are providing the reports to the end user can we give them a drop down menu which gives a time frame for reporting rather than selecting.
Example: Like can we create something which looks in the drop down like current month data, last months data, three months ago, four months ago, five months ago, one year ago, two years ago. Can we make like these data slices in our cube and deliver it to the end user?
We have in our cube a few date infoobjects, like receipt date, decision date, cancellation date and like wise.
Please let me know if any one has done any similar thing, it will be very helpful.
Thank you so much in advance.

if you add your common time dimension to your data model, first identify for each infoprovider the time against which 'current month' and other frames should be applied and map them to your dimension.
just a question... are you not using time dimension in cubes ? ideally this should be your time dimension llinking all.
when you use time dimension which uses 'current month' , 'current year' , you will have to address their historisation as well. (because current month now will not be so current after 2 months).
so in data load procedure every day these values need to change (meaning drop and reload).
and routines to populate these values based on reporting date.

How Can I include a logical data model in a Data Flow Diagram?

Hi,
I have done a logical data model and now, I want to include it in a data flow diagram. I do not know which element I should use to make this relation.
Thanks,

Hi,
you need to create "Information structure" in the flow properties dialog and then can assign attributes to that information structure in its properties dialog

Need tips to build a Logical data model

Hey Gurus,
1) I need some tips in building a logical data model.
I have reviewed a functional spec and listed all the fields required in a report. I now looked into datasources( extractor) in R/3 side which can bring most of these fields but there are certain characteristices which are not part of this extractor, what i have found out is that they are the attributes of a master Data <u>but there are still some more fileds which are not part of the extractor and attributes of a master data</u> , so now how do i bring the data for those fieds????? <b>Do I have to enhance the extractor or do i need to enhance the Masterdata???????</b>
How do i decide whether to enhance the extractor or the Master data?? Experts please give me some tips out of ur experiences so that i can decide on what to enhance.
2) Assume that i have an extractor which can bring me all the fileds required in a report. Now how do i build a logical data model????????
is it like

1. Use XML Spy Enterprise edition editor.
2. Goto www.xmethods.com, select service you want to create demo of.
3. Get its WSDL url.
4. In XML Spy SOAP menu there is a command 'create new soap request'. Press that, enter the WSDL url. You will get a SOAP request.
5. Edit SOAP request parameters. Type parameters of your choice.
6. Press 'send request to server'. You will get SOAP response. It will contain result from the requested method.
7. Paste that response inside a JSP.
8. Write a local method which will return same response (remote method's return value) that came from remote web service.
9. Paste that method inside abovementioned JSP. Replace static response in that JSP with the response generated by local method. The method parameters will come from client's SOAP request. Parse SOAP request to get request parameters. (As it's your demo, you know the data types of the parameters).
10. Host that JSP on any Servlet/JSP engine.
That makes your Web Service.
You can use any package like Aapche SOAP, AXIS or JAX-RPC to generate a SOAP client. Use the URL of JSP(step 10) as "endpoint".
Note: Indside JSP make sure that there in no endline and carriage return character. Otherwise it won't be a valid SOAP response.
Good luck.

Logical data model

hi
I am currently making a white paper on rdbms and logical data models. Can anyone point from where can I get a logical data model for the telecommunication industry for data warehousing purposes ???
regards
Kunal Choksi

Instead of using exploit like that, I prefer to find a way to represent reality more generally. In the following model for example it is possible to specify also the reason for the end of a marriage ( divorce,death of partner, annulment, alimony ) in the right table.
CREATE TABLE PERSONS (
     PERSON_ID NUMBER PRIMARY KEY,
CREATE TABLE MARRIAGES (
     MARRIAGE_ID NUMBER PRIMARY KEY,
     BEGIN_DATE DATE NOT NULL,
CREATE TABLE OLD_MARRIAGES (
     MARRIAGE_ID PRIMARY KEY,
     CONSTRAINT DIVORCES_MARRIAGE_FK
          FOREIGN KEY (MARRIAGE_ID) REFERENCES MARRIAGES,
     CAUSE_OF_END VARCHAR2(N) NOT NULL, --<--- DIVORCE,DEATH,...WHATEVER
     END_DATE DATE NOT NULL,
CREATE TABLE ACT_MARRIAGES_RELATIONS (
     PERSON_ID NUMBER NOT NULL,
     CONSTRAINT ACT_MARRIAGES_PERSON_FK
          FOREIGN KEY (PERSON_ID) REFERENCES PERSONS,
     MARRIAGE_ID NUMBER NOT NULL,
     CONSTRAINT ACT_MARRIAGES_MARRIAGE_FK
          FOREIGN KEY (MARRIAGE_ID) REFERENCES MARRIAGES,
     CONSTRAINT ACT_MARRIAGES_PERSON_UNQ
          UNIQUE (PERSON_ID)
CREATE TABLE OLD_MARRIAGES_RELATIONS (
     PERSON_ID NUMBER NOT NULL,
     CONSTRAINT OLD_MARRIAGES_PERSON_FK
          FOREIGN KEY (PERSON_ID) REFERENCES PERSONS,
     MARRIAGE_ID NUMBER NOT NULL,
     CONSTRAINT OLD_MARRIAGES_MARRIAGE_FK
          FOREIGN KEY (MARRIAGE_ID) REFERENCES DIVORCES
/The two tables to represent marriage_relations (actual and old ones) are there only because with this choice it is possible to specify a unique constraint on actual marriages that avoids the same person to be related in different marriages.

Repeating groups in logical data model

Hello,
I am trying to create a logical data model where the following rules are applied:
Each Renovation Job may include one or more Rooms.
Each Room can be included in one or more Renovation Jobs.
Each Room Renovation may have one or more Renovation Types
Each Renovation Type may be associated with one or more Room Renovations
The following is a list of tables and their values I have created to support the above (Renovation_Jobs, Room_Codes, Renovation_Type_Codes, Renovation_Room_Types). I put tables "Renovation_Jobs" + "Room_Codes" + "Renovation_Type_Codes" having a one to many relationship to intersection table "Renovation_Room_Types". There are repeating groups in "Renovation_room_type" table (Renovation_job + Room_codes), does this mean I have to create another intersection table for this as well?
Renovation_Jobs:
1
2
3
Room_Codes:
Kitchen
Bedroom
Living Room
Renovation_Type_Codes:
Paint
Replace carpet
Replace light fixture
Renovation_Room_Types:
1     Kitchen     paint
1     Kitchen     Replace light fixture
1     Bedroom     paint
1     Bedroom     Replace carpet
1     Bedroom      Replace light fixture
1     Living room     Paint
1     Living room     Replace carpet
2     Kitchen     Paint
2     Kitchen     Replace light fixture
3     Kitchen     Paint
3      Bedroom     Paint
3     Bedroom     Replace carpet
Any help would be appreciated.
thanks

Each Renovation Job may include one or more Rooms.
Entities - Renovation Job Room, Room Renovation (intersection between Renovation Job & Room)
Each Room can be included in one or more Renovation Jobs.
Covered by Room Renovation
Each Room Renovation may have one or more Renovation Types
Entities - Renovation Type, Renovation Room Type
Each Renovation Type may be associated with one or more Room Renovations
Covered by Renovation Room Type
There are repeating groups in "Renovation_room_type" table (Renovation_job + Room_codes)That's just your foreign key to Room Renovation, isn't it?
You said that each renovation type may be associated with one or more room renovations.

Building data model using business modeler in demantra

Hello.
During this week I've been trying to build a data model using the business modeler but i keep getting an error during the process. My main problem is that I don't really know if i am making the mistake or it is a configuration problem with my demantra install. To begin with I'm trying to build the most simple of the models, 3 files or tables (tryed both) sales, items, and location, all joined by their respectives id's. So If anyone could be so kind to direct me to a tutorial with an example (besides the implementation guide) or a anything like that will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Data tables estructure:
Sales table:
Item_Id|Item_Name|Org_Id|Org_Name|Site_Id|Site_name|sales_date|Quantity
Items table:
Item_Id|Item_Name
Location table:
Org_Id|Org_Name|Site_Id|Site_name
So far I've tryed building the model with one record on each table.
this is the error that i'm getting:

We currently don't support DataControls based on the ADF BC technology. We will consider such support if there is a strong interest in that use case.
Independent of the IDE's you use, there are ways to expose services based on ADF BC that can then be consumed by the view layer. A Google search will point you to some of the approaches.
HTH. Thanks for your interest in OEPE.

Creating a logical data model in BPA 11g

Hi,
Can we create a logical data model in BPA 11g? If we can do that can it be moved over to the BPM environment seamlessly. I was under the impression that during the modelling exercise a business analyst would develop process models and logical data models in BPA & the turn it over to IT developers who will pull these models in and develop the implementation. Is that how it works?
Thanks.

You can create a logical datamodel in BPA suite. The sample applicaton has an example of that: the quote to cash datamodel. There are different types of datamodels that you can create (business objects, entities etc).
Examples of datamodels can be found in the sample: OBPA Release 11. quick start.
The datamodels can't be imported I think, the process models can. You can either import them into Oracle BPM Studio (as executable BPMN) or into Oracle SOA Suite (transforms it into BPEL) with JDeveloper.

Create data models using interactive reporting

Hey guys,
I was wondering how you create data models using interactive reporting. An simple example would be great? I would really appreciate if I could get an answer.
Also, I wanted to understand a real world situation that you guys might have faced with creating data models, etc...thanks a ton :-)

Your question is not that much clear on what you are asking for.
But for reference please have a look at the below doc which explain the Integration with IR and webanalysis what you require.

Data loading using ODI

Hi,
I am using ODI 10g for loading data into oracle 10g database from a flat file. The flat file is in fixed format, but the data is in a single row, so the data is not loaded correctly. For example, 1000 records are shown in 1 line.
Can someone please suggest, what customization should I make to the IKM to achieve this.
Please let me know the questions you may have.
Thanks a lot.

Hi John,
I reversed my Planning model and able to see those columns now. I tried executing my interface and got the below error
The source result set contains column [EMPLOYEE_ACCOUNT] which has no corresponding column on the planning side.
My source is an oracle table and i have seperate columns for each dimension member. What I did is, mapped the Data column (JobTitle) from source to the Target column(JobTitle) and rest all dimension member columns from source to Point of View column seperated by a comma. My Planning cube name is EMPLOYEE, so in th data cube name column i manually entered "EMPLOYEE" and tried executing it.
Please guide me as always
Thanks,
Sravan
