Data from two fact tables??

I have a report in which I am comparing two fact tables at month level. I have columns calculated at this level.
One fact has all month entries and other does not have all.
I need to show all the month values and measures in the report even if some months donot exist in one fact and exists in the other.
Currently, my report shows only those months which two facts have in common.
Please suggest.

Left join didnot work for me..Still getting the same result.
I created two identical reports from two identical facts.... using "combine with similar request"
Dummied columns from 2nd fact (placed 0s) for 1st report
and dummied columns from 1st fact (placed 0s) for 2nd report.
In the fnal report..
I am getting two rows for each month..
I need to club those two rows into single row by summing up the values..is that possible?
January ..................10 .........0
January...................0............15
February..................3.............0
February ..................0...........-1
I need the out put as..
January.....................10............15
February.....................3............-1

Unexpected results getting data from two fact tables through conformed dim

Hi all,
We are getting an unexpected behaviour in our OBIEE 10.1.3.3.3. We have this scenario:
We have {color:#0000ff}2 fact tables{color}{color:#000000} called F1 and F2. F1 has one measure, f1m1 and F2 has another one, f2m1.
We have {color:#0000ff}4 conformed dimensions{color}, called D1, D2, D3, Date.
When we are requesting for individual fact tables, we are getting:
date d1 d2 d3 f1m1
dt1 - x - y - z - m1
dt1 - x - y - z' - m2
date d1 d2 d3 f2m1
dt1 - x - y - z - m3
dt1 - x - y - z'' - m4
But, trying to obtain a compare scenario, we are getting
date d1 d2 d3 f1m1 f2m1
dt1 x y z m1 m4
Instead of
date d1 d2 d3 f1m1 f2m1
dt1 x y z m1 m3
Looking at query log, we have catched the reason. That's why BI Server is using to solve this request using ROW_COUNT() to join SAWITH0 and SAWITH1 in SAWITH2 result set. So, the order may not be the same in the results sets in every fact table. More or less, generated query is like:
WITH
SAWITH0 AS
(select ....
from F1),
SAWITH1 AS
(select ...
from F2),
SAWITH2 AS
select from (select ...
ROW_NUMBER() OVER PARTITION (....) c10
from SAWITH0.d1 full outer join SAWITH1.d1 ....) D1
{color:#ff0000}where (D1.c10 = 1){color}
select SAWITH2. ....
from SAWITH2
order by c1..c10
The problems seems to be that BI server is ordering the result sets SAWITH0 and SAWITH1 and getting row number to join this results sets, but this is not getting the correct result.
Any ideas?
TIA

I have done a logical fact table with two fact table source on it.
The Sql performed against the database was this one.
-------------------- Sending query to database named PRODS_AIX (id: <<153418>>):
WITH
SAWITH0 AS (select sum(T21296.CONSUMERS_SALES_EURO) as c1,
     T21309.DIVISION_CODE as c2
from
     DIVISION T21309,
     C_CONSUMERS_SALES T21296
where ( T21296.DIVISION = T21309.DIMENSION_KEY )
group by T21309.DIVISION_CODE),
SAWITH1 AS (select sum(T21356.ORDER_VALUE) as c1,
     T21309.DIVISION_CODE as c2
from
     DIVISION T21309,
     DWH_SALES_ORDER_OVERVIEW T21356
where ( T21309.DIMENSION_KEY = T21356.DIVISION_KEY )
group by T21309.DIVISION_CODE)
select distinct case when SAWITH0.c2 is not null then SAWITH0.c2 when SAWITH1.c2 is not null then SAWITH1.c2 end as c1,
     SAWITH0.c1 as c2,
     SAWITH1.c1 as c3
from
     SAWITH0 full outer join SAWITH1 On nvl(SAWITH0.c2 , 'q') = nvl(SAWITH1.c2 , 'q') and nvl(SAWITH0.c2 , 'z') = nvl(SAWITH1.c2 , 'z')
order by c1As you can see one select (SAWITH0) for the first fact table C_CONSUMERS_SALES and one select for the second fact table DWH_SALES_ORDER_OVERVIEW (SAWITH1 ) and the two statement are joined with a full outer join.
I ask me why you have the three select (SAWITH0,SAWITH1 and SAWITH2). Can you please paste the complete SQL performed ?
Can you tell us also which SQL is performed if you select only the columns from one fact table and not for the other ?

Confirmed Dimensions. OBIEE Not able to pull data from two fact tables.

Hi Experts,
I have a very simple set up of Star Schema with two fact tables and 1 dimension. Both fact tables joined to the dimension at the same level.
When i pull a column from both fact tables and the dimension table in OBIEE, it has to create simple SQL like below:
select FACT1.column1,
Fact2.Column1,
Dim.Column1
from FACT1, FACT2, DIM
where FACT1.ID = DIM.ID and FACT2.ID = DIM.ID
but instead it creating a query in a very complex way:
select case when D1.c2 is not null then D1.c2 when D2.c2 is not null then D2.c2 end as c2,
     D1.c1 as c3,
     D2.c1 as c4
from
     (select FACT1.Column1 as c1,
               DIM.Column1 as c2
          from
               DIM T1287863,
               FACT1 T1287945
   where (DIM.ID = FACT1.ID)
       ) D1 full outer join (
        select FACT2.Column1 as c1,
               DIM.Column1 as c2
          from
               DIM,
               FACT2
          where ( DIM.ID = FACT2.ID)
     ) D2 On isnull(D1.c2 , '1') = isnull(D2.c2 , '1') and isnull(D1.c2 , '2') = isnull(D2.c2 , '2')
I even tried setting the levels for both the fact tables and it still creates the query in avove way. Any thoughts on this will be vary helpful.

Subramanian,
see below the code we're using for the RFM.
on the ct_containers table i'm passing a line, and its getting updated after the call.
on the ct_errors table i just want to receive the errors and i only receive the line, we add manually there ('Serious error with validation code').

OBIEE 11g - Combine data from two Oracle tables

Good day!
I tried to combine data from two Oracle tables as fact data, but it doesn't work.
My steps: I created SCOTT.EMP2 table from SCOTT.EMP table, update EMPNO and ENAME values of EMP2 table to distinguish data of my tables. Then I imported physical tables DEPT, EMP and EMP2 to BIEE 11g, created joins DEPT-EMP and DEPT-EMP2 in physical diagram. Then I dragged DEPT and EMP tables to BMM, and EMP2 table to EMP as second LTS. In Content tab for EMP and EMP2 I checked "This source should be combined with other sources at this level" checkboxes. Then I renamed logical tables EMP and DEPT to Employees and Departments and dragged them to Presentation area. In Answers I created Analysis with columns DNAME and ENAME.
The problem is that data on results tab is only from one physical table EMP or EMP2 (depending on the order of sources EMP and EMP2 of LT Employees) and not from both.
Can anybody help? Am I missed something?
Al.

Hi Al,
I think you have to define the content of the LTS.
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12096_01/books/admintool/admintool_BusModSetup16.html
You have to specify the content of the different fragments.
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12096_01/books/admintool/admintool_SetUpAggNav3.html#wp1005333
Maybe you have to add an additional column 'Source' ('EMP1', 'EMP2')
Good Luck,

Selecting data from two different tables.

Do we need to use join two tables with primary/foreign key while trying to use select statement for getting data from those to table.? If no who can i go about do it.

872959 wrote:
If i am using From clause to get data from two different tables, is it necessary that both tables have column of identical data in them.In general, they ought to (or you need to join in a third table that tells you how to map rows from one table to rows of the other table).
It is not strictly necessary that there be any join condition between tables. If you don't provide a join condition, Oracle has to do a Cartesian product. That means that if there are n rows in one table and m rows in the other, the result set will have n * m rows. It is very rarely a good idea to write queries that do Cartesian products but it does occasionally happen.

Result set from two fact tables

Hi,
I have two fact tables, fact1, fact2. These two fact tables share common dimension dimension1.
In RPD I joined dimension1 to fact1, fact2.
In Answers I pulled the columns from fact1, fact2 and dimension1, I am getting ODBC Error, no fact table exists at the requested level..
When I pull the columns from fact1, dimension1 i am getting result.
When I pull the columns from fact2, dimension1 i am getting result.
Please suggest me how to resolve this.
Thanks & regards,
SR

Whether Fact1 and Fact2 are 2 sperate Logical Fact Tables or part of same logical fact tables.
If they are separate logical fact tables then check for the Properties of Logical Table Source - Content Tab and set aggregation level for Dimension 1 hierarchy for respective facts.
Thanks!

AWM dimension mapping - is it possible to load data from two input tables ?

Hello All
I have two tables ProductFamily (parent level) and Products (child level).
I want to load a dimension from these two tables where the parent-child relationships are maintained (I am using AWM).
I created a mapping with these two tables as input, but the data loaded does not maintain the relationships.
So how do I do that? Is it possible to load dimensions where different levels get data from multiple tables?
Is there any type of joiner available in AWM?
thanks
Few Notes:
- I do not want to use OWB here as my data is clean
- In AWM, When I loaded the data from a single view which contained data from both input tables, it worked fine. But this is my worst case option.

You should use the Snowflake Dimension option in the Dimension mapping screen for the Product Dimension (as opposed to the default dimension mapping style - star schema).
This will modify the mapping inputs to include a separate parent level key for each hierarchy/level i.e. for each hierarchy/level (unless topmost level of hierarchy), you need to specify the parent level key in addition to the current level key, code/name/description/other attributes etc.
You can do the mapping in either .... use icons at the top of the mapping screen.
the drag/drop mode by dragging the relational column onto dimension model - hierarchy/level/attribute
-or-
the table expression mapping mode which gives the same effect.. dragging a column onto an attribute sets the expression in <schema>.<table>.<column> format.
HTH
Shankar
Note1: Complete the mapping in one go.. Switching b/w the mapping modes cause the mappings to be reset.
Note2: Assume your data is correct, foreign key to parent level table: ProductFamily exists in child level table: Products.

Having total brain fart - pulling data from two differnt tables

Good morning,
I am completely having a blonde moment here.
My main select statement can pull all the data I need from one table however I need to define my result set by date range and the date data is held in another table. I am trying to remember how to write my statement to pull data from two tables in the same database.
I haven't written query in a couple of years and was self taught previously - I need data our report management program cannot produce.
Any help would be fantastic! Thank you :-)

Can we get the data from two internal tables in ALV.

hi friends i would like to display the data using two internal tables using alv grid.please guide me.

Hi,
ALV would be having a specific layout say :
MATNR
MAKTX
QTY
Now, if you have two internal tables, then do they have a different structure. If they have different structures, then what kind of ALV layout you expect. The ALV output should be as per the structure of 1st or 2nd internal table.
If both internal table have same layout, then populate the data from 2nd internal table into 1st internal table and pass the 1st internal table ( it will have data of both internal tables) to ALV.
Best regards,
Prashant

Working with data from two separate tables

In a report I'm building, I have two tables: "Registration" and "SpecialDates".
In the Registration table has client info specific to an account number. Each account number has a different billing cycle.. either Cycle 1, Cycle 2, or Cycle 3. This is listed for the account number as {Registration.Cyle}. In the SpecialDates table I have three different dates listed for each cycle. So this table looks something like this:
fldCycle          fldPastDueDate
1                     01/11/2010
2                     12/15/2009
3                     1/20/2010
The problem I'm having is I can't link {SpecialDates.fldCycle} to {Registration.Cycle}. I have to somehow make the date from the SpecialDates table show up on the report depending on the value of {Registration.Cycle}. Does anyone have any ideas on how to do this?
Edited by: MarcieHennessy on Jan 27, 2010 7:26 PM

Then I would create a custom table with the Add Command in Data Expert with the following query:
SELECT Field1, Field2, Field3, cast (fldCycle as char(10)) as fldCycle, Field4, Field5, etc
FROM SPECIALDATES
Where you list all the fields from the table you will need in the report, with the link field converted to a string. Then replace the SPECIALDATES table in your linking with the new custom table . Now when you link from REGISTRATION to the new custom table.
Fuskie
Who notes you can rename the custom table to a more recognizable name...

Calculating count from two fact tables

Hi Guys,
My requirement,
i have two fact table F1, F2 connected with a D1 dimension table, all table connected with a id column
F1 ---------D1------------F2
n 1 1 n
i want to find out the distinct count from Fact F1 where the value also present in F2( ie. F1.id= F2.id condition).
this measure usefull through out my project so i want create a logical column, how to create it.
I tried this way:
i Created two fact table in to one fact table by adding logical source, and created a logical column from existing logical source where F1.id=D1.id and D1.id=F2.Id but it is wrong
Can any suggestion for solve my problem.
Thanks in advance!!!

Hi,
You can create an opaque view in physical layer and wrire a sql like
Select f1.id,count(*) from f1,f2 where f1.id=f2.id group by f1.id.Join this through id with dimesnion and add this fact table in LTS of your fact and use count(*) in report.

How to get common datas from two int.tables

hi,
please tell me , how to i will get the common datas between two int. tables
& place them in third int. table.
give me syntax.
regards
subhasis.

Hi Subhasis,
<b>SORT :</b></u>
SORT itab.
Extras:
1. ... BY f1 f2 ... fn
2. ... ASCENDING
3. ... DESCENDING
4. ... AS TEXT
5. ... STABLE
The syntax check performed in an ABAP Objects context is stricter than in other ABAP areas. See Field symbols not allowed as sort criterion.
Effect
The entries in the internal table are sorted in ascending order using the key from the table definition (DATA, TYPES).
Addition 1
... BY f1 f2 ... fn
Effect
Uses the sort key defined by the sub-fields f1, f2, ..., fn of the table itab instead of the table key. The fields can be of any type; even number fields and tables are allowed.
You can also specify the sort fields dynamically in the form (name). If name is blank at runtime, the sort field is ignored. If itab is a table with a header line, you can also use a field symbol pointing to the header line of itab as a dynamic sort criterion. A field symbol that is not assigned is ignored. If a field symbol is assigned, but does not point to the header line of the internal table, a runtime error occurs.
If the line type of the internal table contains object reference variables as components, or the entire line type is a reference variable, you can use the attributes of the object to which a reference is pointing in a line as sort criteria (see Attributes of Objects as the Key of an Internal Table.
You can address the entire line of an internal table as the key using the pseudocomponent TABLE_LINE. This is particularly relevant for tables with a non-structured line type when you want to address the whole line as the key of the table (see also Pseudocomponent TABLE_LINE With Internal Tables).
If you use one of the additions 2 to 5 before BY, it applies to all fields of the sort key by default. You can also specify these additions after each individual sort field f1, f2, ..., fn. For each key field, this defines an individual sort rule which overrides the default.
Addition 2
... ASCENDING
Effect
Sorts in ascending order. This is also the default if no sort order is specified directly after SORT. For this reason, it is not necessary to specify ASCENDING explicitly as the default sort order.
With the addition BY, you can also specify ASCENDING directly after a sort field to define ascending order explicitly as the sort sequence for this field.
Addition 3
... DESCENDING
Effect
Sorts in descending order. If the addition comes right after SORT, DESCENDING is taken as the default for all fields of the sort key.
With the addition BY, you can also specify DESCENDING directly after a sort field.
Addition 4
... AS TEXT
Effect
Text fields are sorted appropriate to the locale. This means that the relative order of characters is defined according to the text environment being used.
When an internal mode is opened (in other words, when a roll area is opened), the text environment is automatically set to the logon language specified in the user master record. If necessary, however, you can change the text environment explicitly in your program by using a SET-LOCALE statement.
If the addition comes directly after itab, locale-specific rules are used for all fields of the sort key where the type of these fields is C or W. After the sort, the sequence of entries usually does not match the sequence which results otherwise, without using the addition AS TEXT, i.e. with binary sorting.
With the addition BY, you can also specify AS TEXT directly after a sort field, provided it is of type C or W, or a structured type. Otherwise, a runtime error occurs. In sort fields with a structured type, AS TEXT only affects subcomponents with type C or W.
In case of an invalid character, a SYSLOG message is written, and the respective record is inserted at the end.
Note
Please keep the rules for site-specific sorting in mind.
Example
Sort a name table with different keys:
TYPES: BEGIN OF PERSON_TYPE,
         NAME(10)   TYPE C,
         AGE        TYPE I,
         COUNTRY(3) TYPE C,
       END OF PERSON_TYPE.
DATA: PERSON TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF PERSON_TYPE WITH
                  NON-UNIQUE DEFAULT KEY INITIAL SIZE 5,
      WA_PERSON TYPE PERSON_TYPE.
WA_PERSON-NAME    = 'Muller'. WA_PERSON-AGE = 22.
WA_PERSON-COUNTRY = 'USA'.
APPEND WA_PERSON TO PERSON.
WA_PERSON-NAME    = 'Moller'. WA_PERSON-AGE = 25.
WA_PERSON-COUNTRY = 'FRG'.
APPEND WA_PERSON TO PERSON.
WA_PERSON-NAME    = 'Möller'. WA_PERSON-AGE = 22.
WA_PERSON-COUNTRY = 'USA'.
APPEND WA_PERSON TO PERSON.
WA_PERSON-NAME    = 'Miller'. WA_PERSON-AGE = 23.
WA_PERSON-COUNTRY = 'USA'.
APPEND WA_PERSON TO PERSON.
SORT PERSON.
Now, the sequence of the table entries is as follows:
Miller 23 USA
Moller 25 FRG
Muller 22 USA
Möller 22 USA
If, for example, you apply German sort rules where the umlaut comes directly after the letter 'o' in the sort, the data record beginning with 'Möller' would not be in the right place in this sequence. It should come second.
Provided a German-language locale is set (e.g. sorting is according to German grammatical rules, see also SET LOCALE), you can sort the names according to German rules as follows:
SORT PERSON BY NAME AS TEXT.
Now, the sequence of table entries is as follows:
Miller 23 USA
Moller 25 FRG
Möller 22 USA
Muller 22 USA
Further examples:
SORT PERSON DESCENDING BY COUNTRY AGE NAME.
Now, the sequence of table entries is as follows:
Miller 23 USA
Möller 22 USA
Muller 22 USA
Moller 25 FRG
SORT PERSON DESCENDING BY AGE ASCENDING NAME AS TEXT.
Now, the sequence of table entries is as follows:
Muller 22 USA
Möller 22 USA
Miller 23 USA
Moller 25 FRG
Addition 5
... STABLE
Effect
Uses a stable sort, that is, the relative sequence of entries that have the same sort key remains unchanged.
Unlike additions 2 to 4, you cannot use this addition directly after a sort field.
Notes
General:
The number of sort fields is restricted to 250.
The sort process is only stable if you use the STABLE addition. Otherwise, a predefined sequence of fields used to sort a list is not usually retained.
It does not make sense to use the SORT command for a SORTED TABLE. If the table type is statically declared, the system returns a syntax error if you try to SORT the table. If the table type is not statically declared (for example, because the table was passed to a FORM routine as an INDEX TABLE in a parameter), and the system can interpret the SORT statement as an empty operation, it ignores the statement. This is the case when the key in the BY clause corresponds to the beginning of the table key. Otherwise, a runtime error occurs.
To delete all duplicate entries from a sorted internal table (e.g. just after SORT), you can use the DELETE ADJACENT DUPLICATES FROM itab statement.
When using the addition AS TEXT, the sequence of entries after the sort does not usually match the sequence resulting from a binary sort, i.e. if the addition AS TEXT is not specified. The consequence of this is that after the SORT, you are not allowed to access with the READ TABLE itab ... BINARY SEARCH statement.
If you still want to access data sorted apppropriate to the locale with a binary search, you can do this by including an additional component in the table where you can explictly store the data formatted using the CONVERT TEXT ... INTO SORTABLE CODE statement. This is also recommended for performance reasons if you have to re-sort the table several times according to locale-specific criteria.
If the internal table has more than 2^19 lines or is larger than 12 MB, the system sorts it physically using an external auxiliary file. You can specify the directory in which the file should be created using the SAP profile parameter DIR_SORTTMP. By default, the system uses the SAP data directory (SAP profile parameter DIR_DATA).
Notes
Performance:
The runtime required to sort an internal table increases with the number of entries and the length of the sort key.
Sorting an internal table with 100 entries with a 50 byte key requires about 1300 msn (standardized microseconds). Using a 30-byte key, the runtime is about 950 msn.
If one of the specified sort criteria is itself an internal table, SORT may sometimes take much longer.
The runtime increases if you use a stable sort.
Physical sorting reduces the runtime required for subsequent sequential processing.
Reward If Useful.

How to save, update and retrieve data from two diffrent table

Hi,
I can save and retrieve data into an user defined SBO form from one database table only. How can I save retrieve and update records from two or more different tables in a single screen?
Regards,
Sudeshna.

Sudeshna,
Are these tables external to SAP Business One and do not have a Business Object? If there is a Business Object available such as if you were to enter an order, that order would use the Documents object which abstracts you, the programmer, from the underlying tables that need to be updated. If you are handling multiple business objects you would need to wrap the transaction with the StartTransaction - EndTransaction methods. This information is detailed in the SAP Business One SDK Help Center that comes with the SDK.

How to fetch data from multiple fact tables from a normalized schema?

Hello everybody,
I am working on a normalized schema to build my repository. I have categorized the tables into dimensions and facts. I have 3 fact tables in my schema and they have a 1:m:1 relationship i.e. if I have table A, B, and C; A has 1:m relationship with B and C also has 1:m relationship with B. How can I use measures from these tables to create a star schema. If A = Sales, B = Transaction, C = Payment_Amount
Sales(Sales ID, Amount, Tax pct, ...)
Transaction(Transaction ID, Sales ID, Payment ID,Transaction Amt, ...)
Payment_Amount(Payment ID, Check ID, Payment Made, ...)
Please give me some direction to pursue.
Thank you!

Getting same data from two diffrent tables

Select * from events where job_dtls_id IN (select job_dtls_id from job_details where job_no='' and consignment_id='' and carrier_reference='');
Hello All,
I have to retrieve job_dtls_id (query in brckets ) in which it will match the above shown criteria (job_no,consignment_id and carrier_reference).
but the problem is job_no And consignment_id are in one table and carrier_reference is in another.
the two table have relation on job_dtls_id.
Do anybody have an Idea please Help.
Thanks.

Hi Nilesh,
As suggested by John, having JOIN on the tables should give you the desired output and have it saved as stored procedure and invoke it from BizTalk, have a look at following post for reference: http://tech-findings.blogspot.com/2013/08/polling-data-from-sql-using-wcf-sql.html
