Converting numeric level identifier into Parent/Child format to load.

I am unable to receive meta data in parent child format from a ERP source system and need to load these into Planning through ODI. Each member is identified with a numeric level indicator. Is there any wasy to convert this into Parent/Child format using the level indicator?
Thank you.

If you are using oracle you could look into using the "Connect by prior" function.

Changing into parent-child relation

Hi,
I have a table which has the following fields and the table gives the identifier for parent-child relation:
ID
PARENT ID
structure
parentkey_field
foreignkey_field
Fields[]
data[]
1.ID is the numbering like 1,2,3...
2.PARENT ID will give the relation like which structure is the child for which structure.
Example: I have two structures HEADER and ITEM.Then the IDs will be 1 and 2.The parent id for ITEM will be 1(ID OF HEADER).
3.Structure is the header/item structure names.
4.parentkey_field and foreignkey_field are defining the header-child relation identifier fields.
5.fields[] is the table with all the fields of header and item.
6.DATA[] is the table having the data of header/item fields.
Now my requirement is to flatten this table into one more table(with field structure_name,fieldname,value) with parent-child relation.
Can anyone suggest something.

It would be better if you posted the code you tried first and then having others help you with what's wrong. Flattening a hierarchy is not that difficult; why don't you give it a shot first?

The column PARENT refers to DETAIL_ID.
and I've NUMTABLE of type INTEGER. (create or replace TYPE NUMTABLE AS TABLE OF INTEGER;)
I'd like to write a function which takes detail_id's as input and returns the correct order of the input. (parent-child format)
for example
order_req_det (detId_in NUMTABLE) return NUMTABLE;
order_req_det (219, 284, 285, 286, 282, 283, 281, 362, 334, 361)
should return the below output.

Extract the hierarchy in Parent child format from HP

Hello,
I have a hierarchy within Accounts dimension which I need to move to the other application in the different environment. I donot want to move the whole dimension. I just need to move a hierarchy. Is there a way I can extract a hierarchy in Parent child format with properties and move the same in to the next one.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Cheers,

Hi,
Below code assumes that you have 2 alias tables and assymetric hierarchy (having 4 to 6 levels) in accounts and all level 0 accounts are 6 digits. If you wish to remove the second alias table from the code simply remove references to it (i.e. aliastbl_id=50030). You can customize the extract top level member by modifying this section: (select object_id from hsp_object where object_name='Total Expenditure')
This outputs the structure in a fixed columnar format having all levels in different columns.
Code:
select o1.object_name as LVL1, o1.object_name as LVL1_DESC_EN, al1.object_name as LVL1_DESC_AR,
o2.object_name as LVL2, o2.object_name as LVL2_DESC_EN, al2.object_name as LVL2_DESC_AR,
o3.object_name as LVL3, al3.object_name as LVL3_DESC_EN, alar3.object_name as LVL3_DESC_AR,
o4.object_name as LVL4, al4.object_name as LVL4_DESC_EN, alar4.object_name as LVL4_DESC_AR,
o5.object_name as LVL5, al5.object_name as LVL5_DESC_EN, alar5.object_name as LVL5_DESC_AR,

Used to convert all my videos into iPhone mp4 format using Any Video Converter - then add it to my iPhone 3GS. But last few days, I cant add video files to iTunes. and the iTunes doesnt even specify the reason except for that "files are not supported"

Everyting was perfect earlier. Used to convert all my videos into iPhone mp4 format using Any Video Converter - then add it to my iPhone 3GS. But last few days, I cant add video files to iTunes. and the iTunes doesnt even specify the reason except for that "files are not supported"
Everything is fine.
-They are the right format
-Quicktime is updated
-I have tried simply dragging them into the 'movie' library
-I have tried going to file<add file to library
Nothing works, has anyone else had this problem and found a way around it?
Any and all help appreciated.

In addition to Mike's suggestions, you only have 4GB of RAM and Mavericks does use more RAM than other versions. You may also want to look at the apps that startup on login and the possiblity of upgrading RAM.

Quicktime does not convert my .MOV file into a watchable format on Quicktime

Hi guys!
I won't give you all a long sob story but basically, I went to my first music festival over the weekend and uploaded my videos onto my friends computer, I then uploaded these videos (i took with my iPhone) to Google Drive. When i got back onto my own computer, I download the .MOV files from Google Drive, these videos would not convert into a watchable format. It gives me the message -
"QuickTime Player can't open "IMG_8788.MOV". To see if additional software is available that will enable QuickTime Player to open the movie, click Tell Me More."
It says that Quicktime should support MOV files. I am using version 10.3 Quicktime player with iOS Mavericks. I really want help with this issue as I will be devastated if these videos are lost. My friend obviously deleted them off his computer because they did take up alot of space!

iPhone recorded files should already be compatible QT X v10.3 (and QL) as is in the MOV file container. However, the process of downloading, uploading, and again downloading the files may have created some sort of issue causing QT X to not properly "recognize" the content and thus, wants you to check for additional support.
In any case, will the files open in any other media players? (E.g., VLC, MPlayerX, NicePlayer, QT 7, MPEG Streamclip, etc.) For instance, if the files open in QT 7 Pro, MPEG Streamclip, or VLC, you may be able to copy the data to a new MOV file container which QT X will open and play. (I.e., this procedure does not recompress the data and is reasonable quick. Also not sure if using the "Command-D" Finder option to "duplicate" the file will create a "readable" file or not but you might try it.)

Hi
Simple way is to you use Cristal Reports Designer: you can use CR Report convertion function.
File/Export/Export Report... choose Word Document (rtf) modificable what can be opened with Word and saved how Word Document (.doc).
Other way:
Imports CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine
Imports CrystalDecisions.Shared
Dim CrxReport As New CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument
CrxReport.ExportToDisk(CrystalDecisions.[Shared].ExportFormatType.RichText, _

How to Convert Analog Music Recordings into a Digital Format

I am relatively new to Mac computing and would really like to convert my older LP records into a digital format so I can listen to them via an IPod or CD player.
I need to know the basics and what I would need to be successful. Can anyone help?

Hi Kcv
no prob's!
so for the interface, well it really depends on a few factors:
1. your budget
2. what else you will be using it for (e.g. will you be making/creating music using Garageband or perhaps any audio creation program in he future?)
3. the portability of the interface.
4. Whether you really need firewire (relates to 2.)
Needless to say, the more you spend the better the quality and vice versa. However, if you're thinking of only transfering vinyl to digital then the imic will suffice. However, i found a few others that might give you a few more choices. I can't vouch for their quality - but the manufacturers are all reputable in the world of semi-pro audio.
1. http://www.dv247.com/invt/30313/ Edirol UA-1EX (USB around £25 - sorry i'm London based so am not sure what that is i canadian dollars but am sure it will be better than the price if you convert it yourself)
2. http://www.dv247.com/invt/32730/ Behringer UCA202 (also USB and around £24)
3. http://www.dv247.com/invt/30207/ Behringer FCA202 (cheapest firewire interface i've ever seen similar price to the above)
If you anticipate using Garageband or another program to make music then i'd recommend getting a firewire interface and spending more.
the imic seems cheaper than the rest and i'm sure will do the job just fine.
As for where you can purchase it. Just did a quick google and came up with www.vibecomputers.com selling the imic at about $41 canadian and FrontierPC selling the imic at $50 CDN.
If you choose another product look for a computer or audio equipment retailer.
Cool.
Hope that helps. By the way if you feel any of the posts in this thread have helped feel free to award stars appropriately.
If you have any more questions feel free to ask!

Converting the DATE(yyyymmdd) into MONTH(yyyymm) format

HAI
I have one date InfoObject(ZDATE) in the format of YYYYMMDD format.
My client wants another 'Month InfoObject(ZMONTH) in the format of YYYYMM . This ZMONTH infoobject should be derived from ZDATE.
So please tell me how can i convert the ZDATE data into ZMONTH format.
I think , it is possible by writing the ABAP code.
Please give the ABAP CODE for converting the ZDATE data into ZMONTH format also .
i wll assing the points
bye
rizwan

Hi Rizwan,
You can use offset like:
zmonth = zdate+0(6)
Zmonth is variable in which yyyymm is going to be stored
and zdate is variable in which yyyymmdd is stored.
I think this will slove your issue.
Thanks=points

OBIEE 11g: Skip a level in a parent-child hierarchy

Hi everyone,
I've got a parent child hierarchy setup. It's basically Total Company -> Continent -> Country. It's working fine.
For one particular report, the end user would like to bypass continent for just Asia. The rest of the countries should go through their continent first.
For example,
Total Company -> Europe -> Germany
Total Company -> North America -> Canada
Total Company -> Japan
Total Company -> Korea
We do not want to change the hierarchy as it is a corporate standard and eventually we want the grouping there. Just for a single report, we want to bypass.
Is there anyway to do this?
I tried to remove the "Asia" node while building the report, but it also removes the children. So then I tried adding back in the children and they weren't part of the hierarchy. They were off in their own duplicate hierarchy.
Hopefully this is possible.

Hi,
you mean for example you want to create a level 3 WBS under a level 1 WBS?
is that what you mean by skip a level?
that is not possible, i cant even think of a scenerio why you might want to do that. (but i'm curious why you asked)
it isnt even logically feasible. you can create WBS levels only one at a time.
Good day.

I am able to show data at MangerID level data but unable to do so at Manager’s Geography level.
How do I solve this problem using MDX?

I have DimEmployee dimension which has parent child relationship (between ManagerID & EmployeeID)
EmployeeID
ManagerID
GeographyID
Othe columns

G1

G2

G3

G4

G5
This dimension has been connected to FactSales using “EmployeeID”.
EmployeeID
Sales
1
100
2
150
3
80

50
5
60
There is one more dimension called DimGeography which has reference relationship with “FactSales” through “GeographyID” column of DimEmployee
GeographyID
GeoName
G1
Abc
G2
Xyz
Now I have to rollup all subordinates data and show it under Manger’s geography as shown below
ABC (G1)                              330 (100+150+80)
Xyz (G2)                               110 (50+60)
I am able to show data at MangerID level data but unable to do so at Manager’s Geography level.
How do I solve this problem using MDX?
Any Help??? Ideally we have to make other attributes (in this case Geography) recursive along with attributes involved in Parent Child hierarchy

Converting numeric level identifier into Parent/Child format to load.
