Column prefix in Database Desing Transformer

Is there a way to avoid the column prefix when running the
Database Desing Transformer to create new tables from entities?

There is.
In the "Settings" dialog box, you can choose if you want to generate prefixes.

[Forum FAQ] How to configure a Data Driven Subscription which get multi-value parameters from one column of a database table?

Introduction
In SQL Server Reporting Services, we can define a mapping between the fields that are returned in the query to specific delivery options and to report parameters in a data-driven subscription.
For a report with a parameter (such as YEAR) that allow multiple values, when creating a data-driven subscription, how can we pass a record like below to show correct data (data for year 2012, 2013 and 2014).
EmailAddress                             Parameter
Comment
[email protected]              2012,2013,2014               NULL
In this article, I will demonstrate how to configure a Data Driven Subscription which get multi-value parameters from one column of a database table
Workaround
Generally, if we pass the “Parameter” column to report directly in the step 5 when creating data-driven subscription.
The value “2012,2013,2014” will be regarded as a single value, Reporting Services will use “2012,2013,2014” to filter data. However, there are no any records that YEAR filed equal to “2012,2013,2014”, and we will get an error when the subscription executed
on the log. (C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSRS10_50.MSSQLSERVER\Reporting Services\LogFiles)
Microsoft.ReportingServices.Diagnostics.Utilities.InvalidReportParameterException: Default value or value provided for the report parameter 'Name' is not a valid value.
This means that there is no such a value on parameter’s available value list, this is an invalid parameter value. If we change the parameter records like below.
EmailAddress                        Parameter             Comment
[email protected]         2012                    NULL
[email protected]         2013                     NULL
[email protected]         2014                     NULL
In this case, Reporting Services will generate 3 reports for one data-driven subscription. Each report for only one year which cannot fit the requirement obviously.
Currently, there is no a solution to solve this issue. The workaround for it is that create two report, one is used for view report for end users, another one is used for create data-driven subscription.
On the report that used create data-driven subscription, uncheck “Allow multiple values” option for the parameter, do not specify and available values and default values for this parameter. Then change the Filter
From
Expression:[ParameterName]
Operator   :In
Value         :[@ParameterName]
To
Expression:[ParameterName]
Operator   :In
Value         :Split(Parameters!ParameterName.Value,",")
In this case, we can specify a value like "2012,2013,2014" from database to the data-driven subscription.

For every Auftrag, there are multiple Position entries.
Rest of the blocks don't seems to have any relation.
So you can check this code to see how internal table lt_str is built whose first 3 fields have data contained in Auftrag, and next 3 fields have Position data. The structure is flat, assuming that every Position record is related to preceding Auftrag.
Try out this snippet.
DATA lt_data TYPE TABLE OF string.
DATA lv_data TYPE string.
CALL METHOD cl_gui_frontend_services=>gui_upload
EXPORTING
    filename = 'C:\temp\test.txt'

Sharepoint document library file name column in content database?

Hi,
How to get a sharepoint document library file name column in content database?
Thanks
Poomani Sankaran

You're not supposed to develop any solutions accessing the content database directly. It's not supported. Document Library Filename is stored in LeafName column, table: AllDocs.

How to copy one column BLOB value into another column of another database.

How to copy one column BLOB value into another column of another database.
BLOB value contains word document.
I thought of copy the BLOB value into a text file and then update the new column value by the same text in textfile. Will this work?
Is there any other better way to do this?

You're welcome
BLOB fields contains binary data. I don't think you can do this
Also if I view the BLOB as text. Can I copy it and insert into the new database.
I think your options are as I said. Datapump or CTAS
Best Regards

Update A Column In A Database Table.

I am unable to update a column in a database table.
For example; I have ten records in an EMP table without having any EMPNO. I want to UPDATE (insert) 10 different EMPNO in a table. How can I do it? All I know is that there are ten records in the table; this means that I cannot use a WHERE clause with different criteria for each row.
Thanks.

Try something like this

Column reference over database link.

Hi,
Is it possible to reference a table column across a database link?
Ex: var1 table.column%TYPE@dblink
Thanks
Chad

Chad,
Glad it worked ..
Taking this thread a step further ..
If you have the privileges to create synonyms then you could do the following:
create synonym mySynonym
for table@dblink
Then use the synonym in the PL/SQL code as follows:
var1 mySynonym.column%TYPE;
This will avoid repetitive typing of table.column@dblink and if the dblink name changes then you have to make the change in only one place - the synonym

Application Error while using database deign transformer

Using the database deign transformer in Designer 6i I experienced the following dialog:
"An application error has occured and an application error log is being generated. smi61.exe Exception: access violation (0x0000005), Address 0x01f6c325"
This is a repeatable error. All the table have been created but I don't know if they have been left in a clean state.
A would like to stop this happening in the future, I have done this generation successfully in the past will the same settings that are now failing (but different entities)
Thank in advance for all help
Hannah

The last two days have been frustrating. The error above also appeared when I was trying to view one of the relationships in one of my entities.
What seems to have been happening is Designer showed a relationship existing after it had been deleted. This seems to be a bug in Designer. These rouge links can be deleted in the RON (although if you try to look at their details the RON will crash with the error in original query). After this cleanup everything worked like clockwork.

Updating a column in the database

Hi,
My requirement is to update a column in the database just before calling
OAException.raiseBundledOAException(getExceptionList());
I am calling the above in a method in the AM
Just before calling this I am Getting the handle of the VO (which is based on an EO, which in turn is based on the table which I want to update) and setting the value of that column as null. But the value is not getting updated at the database level.
When I query the database I can still see the earlier value and not the updated value.
In some cases I can see the value on the screen is updated but the value in the database remains same.
Please let me know how do I update a column in the database and
Thanks
Meenal

Hi,
I guess, since an excpetion is raised the transaction is not commited automatically by the framework.
Try commiting the transaction explicity after the update and before the exception. But i dont think, its a good design... anybody any idea ?!

The transaction log for database 'WSS_Content' is full. To find out why space in the log cannot be reused, see the log_reuse_wait_desc column in sys.databases

Hi all,
Observing the below error in event logs once in every day at 3:30 AM on the on SQL Server Machine, it is being used for TFS 2010.
The transaction log for database 'WSS_Content' is full. To find out why space in the log cannot be reused, see the log_reuse_wait_desc column in sys.databases
Kindly advice me here on what to do?
Thanks in advance

First thing to check is, what is happening at 3:30am to cause the log to fill up? Is there any maintenance tasks being run against the DB, such as index re-organizations or rebuilds? If so, take a look at what the job is doing, maybe it could
be tuned (ex: A Maintenance Plan with a rebuild indexes task will rebuild *every* index whether it needs it or not. Look at using something that checks how fragmented an index is, and then intelligently determines what, if anything, to do to that
index.)
Basically, the error is telling you that SQL is trying to do something in the DB, and has filled up the log (either because it's not getting backed up often enough, or the transaction in question is running *very* long, or your log is set to not auto-grow)
So, a couple possible solutions:
Increase the frequency of Transaction Log backups of WSS_Content (only works if the DB is in Full Recovery)
If you've got the disk space, turn on auto-growth for the TLog (or just manually grow it larger) {This will work for both Full and Simple Recovery}
It would be nice to know what's causing the space to not be re-used, but with this occuring at 3:30am, you'll either need to set up an Agent job to run around that time and record its results, or manually run something like "select log_reuse_wait_desc from
sys.databases where name = 'WSS_Content';" Me, I prefer to be soundly sleeping at 3:30am and would set up an Agent job to run from say about 3:00am to 3:45am once per minute (maybe even more frequently.)
DON'T shrink the log, though. SQL will idealy grow the log as large as it needs it (if autogrowth is enabled) and no more. If you shrink the file, SQL will just have to re-grow it later again, which can affect performance.

How to generate oracle sequence using Database Designer Transformer

I created Entity Relationship Diagram.I can generate Table relavant to that every entity.(using Database Design Transformer).Normaly the Database Design Transformer tries to find a suitable unique key that can be used as the primary key. If it cannot find one, it creates a surrogate primary key.it create sequence for that surrogate key.But I didn't want that.I want generate sequence only the attribute that have primary key.how can i do

So a digital pulse??

Column Prefix from Logical to Relational Model

Hi,
is there any option, that data modeler append an prefix (table short name) to a column, when the logical model will be transformed to relational model? (Same behavior as Oracle Designer)
Example:
Logical Model
TABLE: PERSON
TABLE-SHORT: PERS
COLUMN-1: ID
COLUMN-1: NAME
Relational-Model
TABLE: PERSON
COLUMN-1: PERS_ID
COLUMN-2: PERS_NAME
Kind Regards,
Stefan

Thanks for your answer!
This Script is not really working for me, because of our foreign keys.
All our Foreign-Keys are named "ID" (for nummeric column) or "INDEX" (for a varchar column). After the transformation form logical to relational all the foreign-keys are named like "ID1", "ID2", "ID3", "INDEX1", "INDEX2" etc.
There is no way to apply this script before the foreign-keys where added in the tables?
The Second Way is to create a new script for this task.
am i the only one with this problem? :-/

Column prefix and automatic generation of surrogate key

Hello,
I used Oracle Designer and could always generate columns with prefixes and got surragate keys as Primary key. Now I cannot find these properties in data modeler.
Thank you for your help

Hello Siegwin,
Abbreviation (Abkurzung) is on the General (Allgemein) tab in the Properties Dialog for a Table in the Relational Model.
There are 2 alternative ways to run the Transformation script:
1. Right_click on the Relational Model in the Browser, and select Apply Custom Transformation Scripts (Benutzerdefinierte Transformationsskripte anwenden) from the drop-down menu.
    Use the right arrow to move "Table abbreviation to column" from the left column into the right column.
    Select the Apply (Anwenden) button.
Alternatively
2. From the Tools (Extras) menu select Design Rules/Transformations (Entwurfsregeln/Transformationen).
    Select the fourth entry ("Table abbreviation to column") and click the Apply (Anwenden) button.
    Then click the Close (Schliessen) button.
Note that you can run Data Modeler in English if you wish.
First close Data Modeler and then edit the file datamodeler.conf (if you are using Data Modeler in 32 bit mode) or datamodeler64.conf (if you are using Data Modeler in 64 bit mode).
These files are in folder datamodeler\datamodeler\bin.
To run Data Modeler in English, you should add the following lines to the file:
AddVMOption -Duser.country=US
AddVMOption -Duser.language=en

Converting null and blank to NA in a column of a database table

Hi
This is a simple thing but is giving me a hard time. I need to change the values coming as null or blank to NA . The values comes in a flat file as a source and I need to laod it convertign to NA in database. I wrote the expression as
ISNULL([NPS Rating]) ? "NA" : [NPS Rating] in a derived column and checked the box " retain null values from source as null values in data flow:
However it is not working instead giving the error as : Truncation may occur due to inserting data from dataflow column from column name" with a length of ...........
Can any help me to sort out this problem. Am I writing the correct expression?
Thank you so much for your help in advance.
Kind regards
Rama

In your conditional result force it to the same length and type and make sure it is long enough, e.g.
ISNULL([NPS Rating])==TRUE ? (DT_WSTR,256)"NA" : (DT_WSTR, 256)[NPS
Rating]
and if the data comes from a flat file, the test will most likely need to test for zero length string too, or trim spaces and then test for zero length.
LEN(TRIM([NPS Rating])) == 0 || ISNULL...
