Clear Data package - "The data file is empty." Error

Hi,
When I run the Clear package in Data Manager, I get the error "The data file is empty". We are running BPC 7.5 SP3. There are no calculated members selected. Any suggestions?
Thanks.
Tom

Hi Tom,
If i'm not mistaken when we run the clear data package, BPC inserts -ve values for the combination of dimensions selected.
For ex if you have selected time as 2010.DEC it would reverse out all these values by inserting negative values which would then total up to zero.
So i still think it could be a problem with the Transformation file.
P.S. Maybe you can try using the Clear from Fact table package.

    but still find the same, i do debug on it after change it into QUAN type. find the same value for LS_FIELDCAT-INTTYPE = " P".
    let me know how can i define this in char type with decimal places or what.
    Please give some suggestion, if you need code, i will post the code.

  • Fragementation of table data in the DB file

    Hi,
    I am working on an OLTP system where this OLTP is residing on an oracle 10G database[database name ORCL] now further it has got a user OLTP which contains about 50 tables and all these tables are residing physically on a single database file[dbf file] and tablespace OLTP is pointing to this dbf file which is OLTP.dbf, Now there are a certain applications that are front end applications and inserting/updating/deleting in these 50 tables, I am taking a case of inserts so that makes me believe that the individual table data stored in the OLTP dbf file is not getting stored by individual table, now I am facing a lot of performance issues and instead I am trying to fragment data by table, so my questions are:
    1) is there a way to fragment data in the physical dbf file such that during the weekend I could go on and fragement the data when the applications are not encountering heavy loads, this is ultimately going to help me with performance issues.
    2) is there any way to physically see data in the dbf file since using this information I can solve a lot of my performance issues.
    Many thanks
    Rahul

    Thanks BCV for the link it is very informative.
    However I am not concerned about weather some blocks are under utilized or not(the link is actually suggesting a manual way of bringing the data together and I can further pack it up in a plsql procedure with a cursor reading information about my concerned tables by setting up a table with concerned table names), my concern is to bring the reserved blocks for a table together(since inserts will happen on a daily basis on a table and that makes me believe that the blocks reserved will be scattered throughout the DBF file and since they are scattered every time oracle needs to refer a particular table and  its full table scan would take more IO on disk if the blocks are scattered throughout the database file as compared to contiguous blocks for a particular table(meaning defragmenting the table data))
    PS: I am trying to clear out a few doubts, may be I am not able to understand everything in the link, it would be great if some1 with experience with this kind of activity could throw more light on this topic.
    Many thanks

  • My iphone wifi data from the consolidated file shows more wifi networks than I have been exposed to. Does the iphone also collect location on wifi networks that are within reach of the wifi networks it has access to?

    I took out the wifi location data from the consolidated file and plotted into google maps. Clearly, not all those wifi networks are in areas or really close to areas I've been to, yet somewhat close. Does it mean that if I am within a range of a wifi network my iphone will not only collect location data of that particular wifi network but also all others that are within reach of that wifi network and so forth?

  • I have a VI and an attched .txt data file. Now I want to read the data from the .txt file and display it as an array in the front panel. But the result is not right. Any help?

    I have a VI and an attched .txt data file. Now I want to read the data from the .txt file and display it as an array in the front panel. But the result is not right. Any help?

    The problem is in the delimiters in your text file. By default, Read From Spreadsheet File.vi expects a tab delimited file. You can specify a delimiter (like a space), but Read From Spreadsheet File.vi has a problem with repeated delimiters: if you specify a single space as a delimiter and Read From Spreadsheet File.vi finds two spaces back-to-back, it stops reading that line. Your file (as I got it from your earlier post) is delimited by 4 spaces.
    Here are some of your choices to fix your problem.
    1. Change the source file to a tab delimited file. Your VI will then run as is.
    2. Change the source file to be delimited by a single space (rather than 4), then wire a string constant containing one space to the delimiter input of Read From Spreadsheet File.vi.
    3. Wire a string constant containing 4 spaces to the delimiter input of Read From Spreadsheet File.vi. Then your text file will run as is.
    Depending on where your text file comes from (see more comments below), I'd vote for choice 1: a tab delimited text file. It's the most common text output of spreadsheet programs.
    Comments for choices 1 and 2: Where does the text file come from? Is it automatically generated or manually generated? Will it be generated multiple times or just once? If it's manually generated or generated just once, you can use any text editor to change 4 spaces to a tab or to a single space. Note: if you want to change it to a tab delimited file, you can't enter a tab directly into a box in the search & replace dialog of many programs like notepad, but you can do a cut and paste. Before you start your search and replace (just in the text window of the editor), press tab. A tab character will be entered. Press Shift-LeftArrow (not Backspace) to highlight the tab character. Press Ctrl-X to cut the tab character. Start your search and replace (Ctrl-H in notepad in Windows 2000). Click into the Find What box. Enter four spaces. Click into the Replace With box. Press Ctrl-V to paste the tab character. And another thing: older versions of notepad don't have search and replace. Use any editor or word processor that does.

  • Create a Purchase order using the BAPI using the data in the XML file.

    Hello Gurus,
    here is the scenario can anyone help me how to proceed explaining the procedure?
    Create a Purchase order using the BAPI using the data in the XML file.
    comprehensive explanations are appreciated.
    thanks in advance.

    hi,
      first use fm "bapi_po_create".
      then use fm "BAPI_ACC_GL_POSTING_POST"
    The demo environment was made with real business scenario in mind, but following subjects need to be addressed in a live implementation:
    •     No exceptions and error handling is implemented, except the order rejection (e.g. partly delivery);
    •     In Navision both XML Ports and the XML DOM has been used to integrate with SAP XI, because XML ports has some drawbacks regarding to Namespaces in XML Documents (mandatory in SAP XI);
    •     A minimum of SAP and Navision customization is required to implement this solution. (e.g. user exit in SAP, Navision XML DOM).

  • How can I save my data and the date,the time into the same file when I run this VI at different times?

    I use a translation stage for the experiment.For each user in the lab the stage position (to start an experiment) is different.I defined one end of the stage as zero. I want to save the position , date and time of the stage with respect to zero.I want all these in one file, nd everytime I run it it should save to the same file, like this:
    2/12/03 16:04 13567
    2/13/03 10:15 35678
    So I will track the position from day to day.If naybody helps, I appreciate it.Thanks.

    Hi,
    I know the function "write to spreadsheet file.vi"
    can append the data
    to file. You can use the "concatenate strings" to display the date,
    time as well as data... Hope this help.

  • How can I show the last amend date of the .rpt file on my report?

    I want to show the last amendment date of the .rpt file on my report. 
    Modification date and time refer to the actual report rather than the .rpt file.
    Does anyone have any suggestions?  I am using version 11.2.
    Thanks,
    Anne-Marie

    annemarier,
    Have you tried the "Modification Date" or "Modification Time" fields located under the Special Fields section of the Field Explorer?
    I've never used them, but they seem like good candidates.

  • How can I get the File Creation Date OR Last modification date of the incoming file in my message?

    I need the Last Modification Date and the File creation date of the consumed file in my message, is it possible to do that using a custom pipeline component in decode stage or any other way? The FILE namespace have File creation time that actually gives
    the time the file was dropped in receive location, not the actual creation time. Also this namespace doesn't have the Last Modification Date.

    Yes,
    As per MSDN, "File.FileCreationTime" - "Defines the time that the file was written to the folder that is monitored by the File receive
    adapter."
    So for File Modified DateTime, only option I can think of is create a custom file adapter (updating the File Adapter code from SDK ..\SDK\Samples\AdaptersDevelopment\File Adapter) and access the received file with the code something like the following, which
    you give you the Last Modified date
    string sLastModifiedDate = File.GetLastWriteTime(path).ToString();
    If there are any business requirements which drives you this, then this the only way I can think of. Because you can access the file properties only in adapter, when it passes through adapter file is handled as stream and you will only have context properties
    to access the file related properties.
    If you're looking for implement this for any audit purpose or for your any technical purpose, then you can suggest some alternate than using File updated datetime.
    If this answers your question please mark it accordingly. If this post is helpful, please vote as helpful by clicking the upward arrow mark next to my reply.

  • How do I add new data to the same file in a State Machine?

    Hello,
    I have a State Machine, with a State where 3 samples of data are collected in a For Loop. I would like to save this data in a file and keep adding new data to the same file each time I get to this state. The problem I'm running into is that each time I reach this State, my old data in the Excel file gets replaced with the new data instead of being continuously added in the same file.
    Ive tried Shift Registers but I may not be using them correctly since my file keeps displaying only 3 new data points.
    Any ideas will be appreciated!
    Thank you, so much.
    -Peter

    Where should I place these shift registers? Where should I place my File I/O VIs? Is it possible to use the Write to Spreadsheet File VI in this situation?
    Ive attached a very simple example of the problem. Thank you.

  • How to  fetch the relational  data from the xml file registered in xdb

    Hi,
    I have to register the xml file into the  xdb repository and i have to fetch the data of the xml file as relational structure  through the select statement .
    i used the below query to register the xml file in xdb.
    DECLARE
    v_return BOOLEAN;
    BEGIN
    v_return := DBMS_XDB.CREATERESOURCE(
    abspath => '/public/demo/xml/db_objects.xml',

    Now i have to fetch the values in the xml file as relational data .
    whether it is possible ?
    can any one help me.
    Regards,
    suresh.

    When you transform your XMLdata to a xmltype you can do something like this for example:
    select
    extractvalue(value(p),'/XMLRecord/Session_Id') session_id,
    extractvalue(value(p),'/XMLRecord/StatementId') StatementId,
    extractvalue(value(p),'/XMLRecord/EntryId') EntryId
    from
    table(xmlsequence(extract(xmltype('
    <XMLdemo>
    <FormatModifiers><FormatModifier>UTFEncoding</FormatModifier></FormatModifiers>
    <XMLRecord>
    <Session_Id>117715</Session_Id>
    <StatementId>6</StatementId>
    <EntryId>1</EntryId>
    </XMLRecord>
    </XMLdemo>
    '),'/XMLdemo/*'))) p
    where extractvalue(value(p),'/XMLRecord/Session_Id') is not null;
    For this sample I've put a readable XML in plain text and convert it to xmltype so you can run it on your own database.
