Basic question: Can OID map LDAP query to custom SQL query?

Hi all,
I have custom data in my Oracle Database and I wat to give them
LDAP interface. Is it possible to use OID to achieve this or OID
is for other purposes?
To be more specific: I have schema MYSCHEMA and table
MYSCHEMA.MYTABLE. Is it possible to configure OID to select from MYSCHEMA.MYTABLE for specific LDAP queries? And the same for update queries? Is there some OID manager console to map LDAP queries against Oracle tables and views?
Thanx for any suggestions,
Rob

Rob,
take a look at the Directory Integration Platform. We provide synchronization of data from an DB tables to OID.
see "Synchronization with Relational Database Tables" http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14099_14/idmanage.1012/b14085/odip_db.htm#i1042820
another option could be to use the OID Plugin framework together with a PLSQL procedure to access the DB data

How can I use the Rownum/Customized SQL query in a Mapping?

Hi,
* I need to use a Rownum for populating one of the target field? How to create a mapping with Rownum?
* How can I use an Dual table in OWB mapping?
* Can I write Customized SQL query in OWB? How can I achieve this in a Mapping?

Hi Niels,
As I'm sure you know, the conundrum is that Reports doesn't know how many total pages there will be in the report until it is all done formatting, which is too late for your needs. So, one classical solution to this problem is to run the report twice, storing the total number of pages in the database using a format trigger, and throwing away the output from the first run when you don't know the total number of pages.
Alternatively, you could define a report layout so that the number of pages in the output is completely predictable based upon, say, the number of rows in the main query. E.g., set a limit of one, two, ... rows per page, and then you'll know how many pages there will be simply because you can count the rows in a separate query.
Hope this helps...

Stewart

Can we implement the custom sql query in CR for joining the two tables

Hi All,
Is there anyway to implement the custom sql query in CR for joining the two tables?
My requirement here is I need to write sql logics for joining the two tables...
Thanks,
Gana

In the Database Expert, expand the Create New Connection folder and browse the subfolders to locate your data source.
Log on to your data source if necessary.
Under your data source, double-click the Add Command node.
In the Add Command to Report dialog box, enter an appropriate query/command for the data source you have opened.
For example:
SELECT
    Customer.`Customer ID`,
    Customer.`Customer Name`,
    Customer.`Last Year's Sales`,
    Customer.`Region`,
    Customer.`Country`,
    Orders.`Order Amount`,
    Orders.`Customer ID`,
    Orders.`Order Date`
FROM
    Customer Customer INNER JOIN Orders Orders ON
        Customer.`Customer ID` = Orders.`Customer ID`
WHERE
    (Customer.`Country` = 'USA' OR
    Customer.`Country` = 'Canada') AND
    Customer.`Last Year's Sales` < 10000.
ORDER BY
    Customer.`Country` ASC,
    Customer.`Region` ASC
Note: The use of double or single quotes (and other SQL syntax) is determined by the database driver used by your report. You must, however, manually add the quotes and other elements of the syntax as you create the command.
Optionally, you can create a parameter for your command by clicking Create and entering information in the Command Parameter dialog box.
For more information about creating parameters, see To create a parameter for a command object.
Click OK.
You are returned to the Report Designer. In the Field Explorer, under Database Fields, a Command table appears listing the database fields you specified.
Note:
To construct the virtual table from your Command, the command must be executed once. If the command has parameters, you will be prompted to enter values for each one.
By default, your command is called Command. You can change its alias by selecting it and pressing F2.

Possible to execute custom SQL query?

Is it possible to execute a custom SQL query and get back a collection of
objects with Kodo JDO? Query expression languages like JDOQL are all very
well (I actually think JDOQL is pretty messy), but sometimes when you've
got a complex query (and you know you're using a RDBMS) it is best
accomplished in a SQL statement. I see Kodo has extended JDOQL, which is
good, but developing custom extensions seems to be limited to implementing
kodo.jdbc.query.JDBCFilterListener where you can customise the where
clause. What I want to be able to do is to specify the entire SQL string.
I am looking into using Kodo JDO for my organisation, and being able to
use custom SQL is something i would expect (and something we can do with
our current O/R mapping product (TopLink)).

Alex

Incorrectly read attributes with custom SQL query

Hi folks,
I'm trying to read in a random sampling of records from a table, so I tried:
ReadAllQuery q = new ReadAllQuery();
q.setReferenceClass(Foo.class);
q.addPartialAttribute("bar");
q.setSQLString("select * from Foo sample(10)");
q.useCursoredStream(100,100, new ValueReadQuery("select count(*) from Foo sample(10)"));
This all worked fine, the Foos were retrieved, but after the first dozen or so, all the "bar" attributes were null, which they should not be. This only occurs when using a custom SQL string. I tried bringing back all the objects (i.e., without using setSQLString) and examining them and all the "bar"s were present. But when I use setSQLString the attributes don't get read correctly.
Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? Is there a better way to do it?
Thanks,
Bryn

Okay, here's the actual code:
ReadAllQuery q = new ReadAllQuery();
q.setReferenceClass(ActivityCenter.class);
boolean useCustom = true;
if (useCustom) {
q.setSQLString("SELECT SetupDt, TerminationDt, ReinstateDt, IID, upDt, ID, " +
"Stat, SubType, Acct FROM ACtr");
q.useCursoredStream(100,100, new ValueReadQuery("select count(IID) from actr"));
} else {
q.useCursoredStream(100,100);
session.logMessages();
activityCenters = (CursoredStream) session.executeQuery(q);
ActivityCenter ac = (ActivityCenter) activityCenters.read();
if (ac.getAccount() == null) {
System.err.println(ac.getID() + ": Oops!");
} else {
System.err.println(ac.getID() + ": Has account!");
System.exit(0);
So, everything about this program is the same - how the mapping is done, how things get initialized, everything. The only difference is whether I use a custom SQL query or not. Here's what it looks like when I run it both ways:
First, custom:
DatabaseSession(2433702)--Connection(393272)--SELECT SetupDt, TerminationDt, ReinstateDt, IID, upDt, ID, Stat, SubType, Acct FROM ACtr
1.1: Oops!
Now, without the custom SQL:
DatabaseSession(393272)--Connection(7896086)--SELECT SetupDt, TerminationDt, ReinstateDt, IID, upDt, ID, Stat, SubType, Acct FROM ACtr
DatabaseSession(393272)--Connection(7896086)--SELECT
//bunch of fields from the Acct attribute...
FROM Acct WHERE (IID= 'ffbe5c47f3ea762cfd50fbe9e6d6de6')
1.1: Has account!
Notice that the first query on Actr is identical in both cases. Also note there are no null Actr.acct fields in the database:
SQL> select * from actr where actr.acct is null;
no rows selected
SQL>
This is on Oracle 9i, with the thin jdbc driver.
Also, I was curious that you asked if I was using partial attributes - when I try to add a partial attribute when using the custom SQL string, I get exceptions like this one:
java.lang.ClassCastException: oracle.toplink.internal.queryframework.CallQueryMechanism
at oracle.toplink.queryframework.ObjectLevelReadQuery.initializeDefaultBuilder(Unknown Source)

Change "SQL Query" report to "SQL Query (updateable report)" report?

I manually made a report, because the tabular report made by the wizard gave me no possibility to use a popup LOV. Now I have this report, but I cant apply an MRU process on it, becuase it's not an "SQL Query (updateable report)". How can I change my report to a "SQL Query (updateable report)"? I only can choose between SQL Query and SQL QUERY (PL/SQL function body returning SQL query).

Hi Tom
You can just write the processes yourself. Although trickier this can give you a lot more control over row processing.
APEX_APPLICATION.G_F01, F02 etc are global variables in the apex_application package that are defined as arrays.
These are regularly used in tabular forms to reference values within them. The normal ordering would be column 1 = G_F01, column 2 = G_F02 etc etc. Although you can change these and even assign more than one column to an array.
The example
FOR i IN 1..APEX_APPLICATION.G_F01.COUNT LOOP
INSERT INTO my_table VALUES(:P1_EMPID , APEX_APPLICATION.G_F01(i));
END LOOP;Is saying - for the number of values in the array G_F01 (probably column 1) loop insert into the table the value of the associated value in the array. So first time through i=1 - so the first value in the array (probably row 1 in column 1), next time i=2 so the second value in the array is used (probably row 2 in column 1) and so on...
When you've created a manual tabular form (what I would call what you've done) you have created the items using the APEX_ITEM package in your query. The first parameter for this is p_idx which defines which global array to hold it in.

Execute custom SQL query in OIM11g

Hi,
Can you please provide me some java code snippet to execute a custom sql query and also to get db connection to execute this query in OIM 11g. I am going to run this query in an adapter.
Thanks a lot for ur help.

Can't pass a parameter to an SQL Query

I've looked for about an hour or more now on the web, java.sun.com, but can't find what I need:
I have a page called display.jsp, and I call it from the browser
http://localhost/display.jsp?libnum=1
In the page I have the following code:
<sql:query var="profileQuery" dataSource="${profileDS}">
SELECT * FROM singles.profile where libnum=?
<sql:param value="${libnum}"/>
</sql:query>
However, the database sees the query as
" SELECT * FROM singles.profile where libnum=null"
So, my question is how do I make this line work ? :
" <sql:param value="${libnum}"/> "
can you help ?
thanks !
Dennis

Dude .....
Here's my code now -- solved it... phew..
Just to think of it ... what a difference between "libnum" and "param.libnum". That was like 3-4, if not 5 hour difference for me.
<sql:query var="profileQuery" dataSource="${profileDS}">
SELECT * FROM singles.profile where libnum=?
<sql:param value="${param.libnum}"/>
</sql:query>

Can we create prompts in Derived Table sql query

Hi,
I am trying to define derived table sql query as below. Though the syntax parsing is going through but when I am generating the report it is throwing and invalid prompt definition error.
" select * from table_a where call_direction = @Prompt('Enter Call Direction','A','"derivedtable_a".SHORT_STRING',mono,free,not_persistent,) and
where call_type = @Prompt('Enter Call Direction','A','"derivedtable_b".SHORT_STRING',mono,free,not_persistent,) "
Can somebody please share your thoughts if this can be achieved in universe or not ?
Appreciate immediate responses as it is a show stopper for my deliverable.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks and Regards,
Shireen.

Hi Shireen
We can use prompt in the derived table. There is issue with the SQL that you have used while creating the Derived Table.
Instead of using the "derivedtable_a".SHORT_STRING' field use the object from the class on which you are creating the derived table.
For example: If you are creating a derived table in the sample universe efashion on Agg_yr_qt_rn_st_ln_ca_sr table then use the following query:
SELECT *
FROM Agg_yr_qt_rn_st_ln_ca_sr
WHERE Agg_yr_qt_rn_st_ln_ca_sr.Yr = @Prompt ('Enter Value','C','Time Period\Year',mono,constrained)
Hope this helps!
Thanks

Can I declare variables in Reports from SQL Query

Hi
I have a Report from SQL Query published as a portlet on a page among other reports. In the query report I am using the fuction WWCTX_API.GET_USER at quite a few places to filter the data returned to the user. Can I assingn the user id to a variable at some level & replace the fuction WWCTX_API.GET_USER with the variable in all the places.
For eg:
usr varchar2(25);
usr:= PORTAL30.WWCTX_API.GET_USER;
select USER_ID, USER_LVL, BUSINESS_ID, BRANCH_ID from crs_user where user_id=usr;
can i declare variable and assign the value like the above at any level(Report or Page Level) to the acces the variale in queries.
Thanks in advance

I have found that you can't use a * in a dynamic page.
Try this:
<ORACLE>
DECLARE
usr varchar2(25):=PORTAL30.WWCTX_API.GET_USER;
BEGIN
for c in
(SELECT <column_name> <alias> FROM PORTALWORK.CRS_USER WHERE USER_ID=usr)
Loop
htp.p(c.<alias>);
END;
</ORACLE>
You can also add table tags for column formating:
<table>
<tr><td>column 1</td></tr><tr><td nowrap>
<ORACLE>
DECLARE
usr varchar2(25):=PORTAL30.WWCTX_API.GET_USER;
BEGIN
for c in
(SELECT <column_name> <alias> FROM PORTALWORK.CRS_USER WHERE USER_ID=usr)
Loop
htp.p(c.<alias>);
END;
</ORACLE>
</td></tr></table>

Parameter passing to custom SQL query using PL/SQL FUNCTION

Hi
In order to pass a parameter to the query in custom folder of a business area I created a function and mapped it to the Custome query using Discoverer Desktop. There is no error in mapping as the system does not throw any error. When I am inputting the Parameter for the input values everytime the query doesnot return any rows.
Can anybody help in this regard

Hi,
I need to take the request Id as input from the user and then fetch only the data pertaining to that requet Id. As a lot of complex joins are involved I need to pass request id as parameter to the custome folder.
The package i greated:
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE SETPARAM
AS
param1 varchar2(25);
param2 varchar2(25);
FUNCTION SET_PARAM1(p1 IN varchar2) RETURN NUMBER ;
FUNCTION GET_PARAM1 RETURN varchar2;
END SETPARAM;
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY SETPARAM AS
FUNCTION SET_PARAM1(p1 IN varchar2) RETURN NUMBER IS
BEGIN
fnd_client_info.set_org_context('138');
param1 := p1;
dbms_output.put_line(param1);
RETURN 1;
END;
FUNCTION GET_PARAM1 RETURN varchar2 AS
BEGIN
RETURN param1;
END;
END SETPARAM;
I registered the set_param1 function as a pl/sql function in discoverer admin.
This function is called on the condition associated with the parameter in Discoverer Desktop when i run the report.
In the custom folder query i have this piece in the where clause
WHERE tnfo.request_id = NVL(APPS.SETPARAM.GET_PARAM1,7383588)
And everytime i get the data pertaining to request id =7383588,
Please suggest where i went wrong

Creating a Custom SQL Query

Hello Folks,
I am working in a project in Brazil and, we need develop the following load to Hyperion Planning:
We have the PeopleSoft ERP (MSSQL - relational database) as source.
Our target is Hyperion Planning.
The customer has all SQL queries statement written in Hyperion Application Link (HAL), and we need migrate all HAL projects to ODI. In short, I must apply this query as source object and load in Hyperion Planning.
Follow below the SQL query:
SELECT RTRIM(ID_CR)AS ID_CR,
RTRIM(DSC_CR)AS DSC_CR,
RTRIM(ID_PARENT)AS ID_PARENT,
'0' EXPENSES,
'1' INCOME,
'0'DRE,
RTRIM(STATUS)AS STATUS
from DIM_CR where tipo_cr = '1'
union
SELECT RTRIM(ID_CR)AS ID_CR,
RTRIM(DSC_CR)AS DSC_CR,
RTRIM(ID_PARENT)AS ID_PARENT,
'1' EXPENSES,
'0' INCOME,
'0' DRE,
RTRIM(STATUS)AS STATUS
from DIM_CR where tipo_cr = '0'
I have been written here that it is necessary develop a custom KM to apply a query in ODI. Is it true? Is There another way to solve this issue?
I have been learned a lot with you. I appreciate a lot your help.
Wallace Galvão,
Brazil

Hi,
Maybe I am wrong but I wouldn't of thought a procedure would be able to do what is trying to be achieved, with planning you can't just directly insert into and you need to use the IKM to load to it? I would be interested to know if it could easily be done using a procedure. I would of thought the best option to update the KM
Anyway looking at the query though I am sure it could be achieved without any changes.
It looks like it is pulling information from one table, which could be reversed and dragged as the source, a filter added on tipo_cr to return 1,0 values
Then on your staging area you could use some of the inbuilt functions such as CASEWHEN to manipulate the data.
e.g. when tipo_cr = 1 , expenses column = 1 else it would be 0
There is also the RTRIM function.
