Hello All,

Data Lineage - DAC Subject Area

Hi All,
In the DAC OOTB repository, there is a Data Lineage Subject Area. By default it is inactive.
Its task names look very promising (indicating connections to OBI webcat, rpd, etc.), but I could not find any INFA workflows behind them.
Has anybody has an idea if there is any way of using it?
Any experience here?
Thanks!
Michal

I know about the data lineage documents on metalink3 and yes, they are useful.
The missing part however is the rpd/webcat metadata. Also some connections inside of DAC are not covered.
This subject area looks very promising, but does not have any Infa mappings behind.
Any other guesses? What is a purpose of it?
Michal

Need help in assembling DAC 'Subject Area':

Hi There,
When I assemble a subject area:
I got a pop up window for 'Configuration Tags' with the following message:
The tasks belonging to the following Configuration Tags may be applicable
to assembling your subject area. If you want to associate these tags,
press Cancel, otherwise press Continue.
For this message, should I say 'Continue' or 'Cancel'.
Also what happens when I say 'Continue' or 'Cancel'.?
Thanks,
Raghu

Hi, DAC Configuration Tag controls the inclusion of tasks in subject areas. Each Configuration Tag will have tasks associated for specific biapps requirement.
By Default BIAPPS OOTB Subject Areas will have Configurations tags associated and few will be in inactive state.
(Click on any DAC SubJect Area --> ConfigurationTag (in the bottom pane) to verify which Configuration Tags are associated )
1. This message is just a reminder that DAC tells you, there are few other tasks that can be included in the Subject Area and here are the Configuration Tags associated to these tasks. In case if you forget adding them hit 'Cancel', add it and then Assemble again
2. In all other cases if you don't need to add these Configuration Tags you can hit Continue to complete assembling the Subject Area
It all depends on the requirement and which tasks you need to include or exclude from specific Subject Area.
Before Assembling verify if you need to include any Configuration Tag , activate it and then hit Assemble.
Eg: In BIApps Configuration topic : To Reload the Time Dimension Tables After the Data Warehouse Is Loaded
1. To extend the Day Dimension, you should include configuration tag named *'Extend Day Dimension Multiple Calendar Support.'* which adds additional specific tasks . Then assemble the Subject Area
Hope This helps !

Tax Data in any AR Subject Area

Hello All,
I have a scenario to add lots of AR Tax data elements in any of AR Subject area. Currently we are using OBI Apps 7.9.6.1.
The AR tax details are coming from the Oracle-EBS 11 5 9, the most of the source tables are AR_COLLECTORS, ECE_TP_HEADERS, AR_VAT_TAX_ALL_B.etc....
I need to map all these tables through Informatica mappings and bring it into any of AR Subject area.
Please advice me that, which subject area could be the best one to add all tax information of AR.
Is there any specific join conditions to add these (AR_COLLECTORS, ECE_TP_HEADERS, AR_VAT_TAX_ALL_B.) following tables in the existing Informatica mappings.
Thanks!!
Praveen

Are you importing data into the EBS through Informatica PowerCenter? I strongly suggest you use the EBS interface tables or the provided EBS API's for importing data from external sources, in fact, this is Oracle's recommended method of importing data from external sources. You are asking for trouble if you try to put data in all the right places yourself. This is why Oracle provide interface tables and API's to import data.
Oracle's Enterprise Business Suite (EBS) plays by its own rules and for good reason. There are just too many dependencies between tables to attempt this on your own. I suggest your review the Oracle Applications Documentation library for how to use the interface tables and APIs. Each EBS module has it's own set of interface tables and APIs.

Changing date format for some of the date columns in a subject area

Hi,
I have a requirement to change the date format for some of the date columns to dd-mon-yyy for only a particular subject area. Is there a feature available in the RPD which can help me do this?
In Answers - Column Properties for a Particular column of a report, we can save the style and formatting as system wide default for the particular column or the data type, but that applies across subject areas.
I tried with the config files too , but that too applies to all suject areas.
Thanks in Advance,
Gaurav

Why don't you create 2 logical column derived from same date physical col and then change the format for one logical column and use it in Subject Area ?

How to limit data for a dimension in any subject area?

Hi folks,
I do have a little problem, maybe you can help me:
I have a large subject area for all my countries and product i sell there.
now i want to have special subject areas for certain countries.
that for i ducplucated my large subject area, went to the identity manager and there I set special Rights für the users: I chose my fact measure and put a data filter for it on the dimension country.countryname = Germany.
I hope you can fallow me until here. ;-)
Now I can build a query in answers and it works, within this subject area I only get data for Germany.
BUT: when I'm on the criteria tab and try to create a filter on my countryname (from the dimension) it shows me all the countries I have.
I think for the end users this is a litte bit confusing.
So how do I limit the dimension in this subject area to a particular value?
I would be very happy for help, cause then I could finish my development for today ;-)
Kind regards,
Sven

Try this; @BMM Fact source properties->Content tab->WHERE clause section add the dimension country.countryname = 'Germany'.
Also set the implicit fact on the subject area.
Let us know how it works

DAC subject areas won't assembled.

I’ve run across a situation where I am trying to run in DAC both EBS and provided by third-party jobs in the same environment. It appears that provided by third-party vendor container is keeping the other containers subject areas from being able to be assembled.
I’ve deleted containers one at a time, imported one at a time, created new containers, new subject areas and so far nothing I do seems to clear this up.
When I install the Enterprise Container first, it is able to assemble, but after I import provided by the third-party container I am no longer able to assemble the Enterprise Container Subject Areas. Provided by the third-party Subject Areas assemble fine and execution plans run. Just can’t get the Enterprise one in a state where it will run.
Please share any thoughts on the possible cause and solution.
Thank you very much!

Thank you for getting back to me. Yes by third-party container i realy mean non-Oracle container. There is no error, it just won't complete the process. I've tried to kill DAC pracess and to start over - made no difference.

How to import Erwin V4.3 or Erwin V8 subject areas into Oracle Data Modler?

I have hundreds of Erwin data models. Many of them are broken up into subject areas to make them easier to maintain.
I have tried saving the files several different ways (XML and native Erwin formats) in both Erwin V4.3 and Erwin V8 and Oracle SQL Developer Data Modeler does not seem to import the subject areas.
Is anybody aware of any steps to import the supject areas and included obects into Oracle SQL Developer Data Modeler?
I am using Version 3.1.3.709 of Oracle SQL Developer Data Modeler.
BTW: this does version not support Erwin 8.X yet. Any ideas when that will come out?
Thanks
Mark Wietelmann

I just found the answer, myself.
The Oracle tool handles this fine.
It was just buried further down in the tool hierarchy than I expected!

DAC Peer to Peer Merge doesn't pick up new tasks in custom Subject Areas

I have a series of DAC changes spread across a number of different environments and I'm trying to consolidate them into one environment. I can't use a whole repository import/export as I'm trying to put Live hot fixes back into a dev environment that has new processing in it that isn't yet live, so I will loose these changes by reverting this back to the Live release.
These changes are all saved in a custom container. I've been trying to use the Peer to Peer merge function in the Upgrade/Merge wizard and this is picking up some of my changes but not others. I'm using DAC version 10.1.3.4.1.
It is picking up changes to paramaters, changes to tables and tasks fine, but it is not picking up changes to custom subject areas such as a new task being added or removed. Is this an issue that anyone else has seen? Any suggestions on how to get the Peer to Peer to check for this?

List of Dimensions by Subject Area

Hi
How do i find the list of available Dimensions by subject area, for example - Project analytics.
Thanks

Hi,
What do you mean by Subject Area?
1. OBI Presentation Layer Subject Area:
Then you can use "Display Related" functionality of OBI repository - it will list all the physical/logical objects for each subject are
2. DAC Subject Area
Then you can use either DB scripts in the DAC metadata schema or easier refer to metalink Data Lineage document for the version of OBIA that you are using.
Hope it helps,
Michal

Multiple Fiscal Calendars Displayed in Subject Area Time Dimension

Hi all,
Thanks for taking the time to review my post.
Environment
Oracle BI Applications 7.9.6 Financial Analytics
Oracle E-Business Suite 11.5.10
Query
The Time dimension on my Subject Areas (Financial Analytics) are showing more period data than I expected.
I have configured one Enterprise Calendar (WPG_Calendar) that I set in the DAC parameters - $$GBL_CALENDAR_ID (WPG_Calendar~Month) and $$GBL_DATASOURCE_NUM_ID (4). The warehouse Enterprise Calendar table W_ENT_PERIOD_D is populating with the periods as configured in EBS for that calendar(Jan-09, Feb-0, Mar-09, etc). I noticed that the Multiple Fiscal W_MCAL_PERIOD_D table is also been populated with the Enterprise Calendar data PLUS, the Seeded EBS calendar (JEBE_MONTH_VAT) and a generated Calendar that appears to be a 5-4-5-4 Calendar (Jan-01-09, Jan-02-09, Jan-03-09, etc). The trouble is these W_MCAL_PERIOD_D periods and dates are all coming through in my Time dimensions and make it confusing for the Answers Users when choosing a Time dimension.
Also, for columns W_CURRENT_MCAL_PERIOD_CODE, W_CURRENT_MCAL_QTR_CODE, W_CURRENT_MCAL_YEAR_CODE there are rows with Current, Previous and Next populated that span these different periods as you would expect, but I'm concerned these return multiple rows for Filters Current Fiscal Quater, Current Fiscal Year.
Funnily enough, W_CURRENT_MCAL_MONTH_CODE has nothing populated (NULLs for all rows).
Your comments are most welcome.
Kind Regards,
Gary.

The filtering of the calendar can be done directly on the logical layer.
for the logical dimension "Dim - Date Fiscal Calendar", Logical Table Source "Dim_W_MCAL_PERIOD_D_Fiscal_Period"
set the content as :
"Oracle Data Warehouse".Catalog.dbo.Dim_W_MCAL_PERIOD_D_Fiscal_Period.MCAL_CAL_WID = VALUEOF("MY_MCAL_WID")
and setup the repository variable MY_MCAL_WID to match with your calendar wid.
If your calendar depends on any context then you can use session variable instead of repository variable
