Data loading - Member containing comma taken in point-of-view

Hi,
I tried loading date into planning. My point-of-View contains a member which has comma in it.
When loading it is considering that member as two different members.
Has anyone tried loading data into planning with members having comma.
Eg. Item No.,Start Date,Point-of-View,Data load Cube Name
30103,11-02-2011,"Actual,Version1,Dazzing Infotech, Inc,230"Capex
I have 6 dimensions say.
Dazzing Infotech, Inc is a member in dimension. It has comma which is seperating it as two members.
Error when loading is "Dazzing Infotech" doesn't exist or you do not have access to it.
Has anyone worked on this issue previously.
Thanks

I agree that it would be cleaner to use the commas in an alias rather than a member name.
Cheers

Data loading using ODI

Hi,
I am using ODI 10g for loading data into oracle 10g database from a flat file. The flat file is in fixed format, but the data is in a single row, so the data is not loaded correctly. For example, 1000 records are shown in 1 line.
Can someone please suggest, what customization should I make to the IKM to achieve this.
Please let me know the questions you may have.
Thanks a lot.

Hi John,
I reversed my Planning model and able to see those columns now. I tried executing my interface and got the below error
The source result set contains column [EMPLOYEE_ACCOUNT] which has no corresponding column on the planning side.
My source is an oracle table and i have seperate columns for each dimension member. What I did is, mapped the Data column (JobTitle) from source to the Target column(JobTitle) and rest all dimension member columns from source to Point of View column seperated by a comma. My Planning cube name is EMPLOYEE, so in th data cube name column i manually entered "EMPLOYEE" and tried executing it.
Please guide me as always
Thanks,
Sravan

DATA LOAD WORNINGS IN ASO CUBES

Hi Every one,
While loading data into ASO cubes in Essbae we are getting wornings like *"Data load strem contains 1.25797e 08 and [0] #misssing cells ".*My data file have #missing values and o's and sepecial carecters like E .I want To load the complete data with out warnings.Kindly let me know if any one's know the solution .Whether i need to change any settings in rule file or how to ingnore those cells .
Thanks,
Vikram

The warnings are really informational messages to let you know it loaded and did not load those values. Which is fine as they tend to bloat a cube (The zeros). #missing is not going to load anyway and the E is exponential format of numbers whinch should not be a problem. Excel will display it this way, but you can format it without the E. You don't mention if you are doing this from EAS or MaxL and what version you are on. In Veraion 11, in EAS there are options in the load dialog to turn on or off the loading of zzeros and missing across the top. In MaxL, I don't see the syntax in the Tech reference, but I thought it was there in 9.

EIS Member and Data Load-Getting OS Error-Please help!

Please help! I have created a OLAP model then created a Metaoutline.
Then I went ahead to do the Member and Data load. I logged into my server and started the member and data load.
Then it gives me the following error:
SELECT /*+ */ .. FROM <my_view_name>
OS Error No such file or directory IS Error Member load terminated with error.
The load terminated with errors.
Thanks in advance for any replies.

thanks all! the error has been resolved.
Jus had to create a directory in the Integration services folder: $ISHOME/loadinfo
the loadinfo folder was missing.
Prathap,
Is that view available at that time? --the query is generated automatically.
Which Data Source and which version of the Hyperion - datasource is Oracle10g and 9.3 is Hyp version.

Member In Outline, Not Found During Data Load

I am exporting data from DatabaseA (zero level export in columns to a text file) using MaxL. I then to import this data (using MaxL) into Database B on another server but which has the same exact outline. We set this up about 3 weeks ago and the export import scripts run every day and have been working fine. However today I got an error while loading members into Database B, 3 members were not able to load:
Member 73997612 Not Found In Database
Member STCR Not Found In Database
Member 22-340101 Not Found In Database
Initially I thought that these 3 members got added to DatabaseA, and were therefore in the export file and probably didn't exist in Database B. However when I went to database B and did a "find members" on the outline, all 3 members are there. Just a note that they had been added manually, but were added.
Then I thought maybe they had been added in the wrong dimension. I checked the location of the above three members in Database A, and they were added in the same location in the hierarchy in Database B.
So if the members exist in Database B and are not in the wrong location, why can't they be loaded to Database B ?
I also wanted to add that there seemed to be several data values which existed for these members. I am guessing they came from the export.
Version is 11.1.2.1. OS = Oracle Enterprise Linux
Has anybody encountered an issue like this before ? I don't think it has to do with the member names, they seem to fit syntax requirements PLUS they are exported from the production database.
Thanks in advance

BPC NW 7.0: Data Load: rejected entries for ENTITY member

Hi,
when trying to load data from a BW info provider into BPC (using UJD_TEST_PACKAGE & process chain scheduling), a number of records is being rejected due to missing member entries for the ENTITY dimension in the application.
However, the ENTITY member actually do exist in the application. Also, the dimension is processed with no errors. The dimension member are also visible usnig the Excel Client naviagtion pane for selecting members.
The error also appears when kicking of the data load from the Excel Client for BPC. Any ideas how to analyze this further or resolve this?
Thanks,
Claudia Elsner

Jeffrey,
this question is closely related to the issue, because there is also a short dump when trying to load the data into BPC. I am not sure whether both problems are directly related though:
Short dump with UJD_TEST_PACKAGE
Problem desription of the post:
When running UJD_TEST_PACKAGE, I get a short dump.
TSV_TNEW_PAGE_ALLOC_FAILED
No more storage space available for extending an internal table.
Other keywords are CL_SHM_AREA and ATTACHUPDATE70.
When I looked at NOTES, I found this Note 928044 - BI lock server". Looking at the note and debugging UJD_TEST_PACKAGE leaves me some questions:
1. Do I need a BI lock server?
2. Should I change the enque/table_size setting be increased on the central instance from 10000 to 25000 or larger?

For performance point, in data loading what we need to do?

Hi,
1.for performance point, in data loading what we need to do?
2.How to increase Cube performance & query Performance?
Thanks,
Basava Raju

Hi,
In addition to the above steps, especially for data loading, make sure that if you have custom code, its enhanced for performance both on the R3 side and the BI side as well.
For generic data sources, try to make them generic deltas or try pseudo deltas for them.
From a query pespective, in filters, try putting include conditions wheree ver possible instead of exclusions.

Thanks

As it is comma separated and all the members for the POV need to be together try enclosing it in quotes e.g "USD,E01_0 ,Jan,Current,Working,FY11"

Use table RSSDLINIT and in OLTPSOURCRE: enter the name of the data source
And in the logsys enter the name of the source system and delete the entry for that info package. what will happen is process chain will run suceesfully and short dump will not come or what kindly give the detail explanation about this RSSDLINIT.

BI Applications 7.9.6.1 - Few SIL and PLP Tasks stopped in Full data load

Hi All,
I have run full data load for Projects analytics. I have 23 tasks with status "stopped". These are SIL and PLP tasks for Project Facts load. It also contains tasks related to employee dimension and user dimension SCD update
I have checked the staging tables for many of the Facts/Dimensions corresponding to the stopped tasks and they have data.
All my other dimensions have loaded successfully and am able to query them from Answers using the BIA subject areas.
Could any one suggest possible reason for the tasks to be stopped.
Any pointers will be great at this point in time.
Many Thanks,
Kiran

Thanks for that pointer!
Yes I had overlooked one failed task. It was a group task on employee dimension (Index creation on DS table had an error). Fixed that error and ran the failed and stopped tasks again. All working fine now.
Facts have been loaded and dashboards are working pretty fine.
Thanks,
Kiran

In BI 7,in loading point of view what is the difference

Hello All
In BI 7,in loading point of view
Upto the first level(upto PSA) we use infopackage and from that layer onwards we use DTP's.
My question is why do we want to use DTPs there? Why cant we use infopackage only?
What is the advantage by using this DTPs for loading the data within BI
Please let me know in this regard
Many Thanks
Swami

Hi Swami,
Although not recommended you can still use infopackages if you want in BI 7.x. The introduction of the DTP was to overcome some disadvantages of using infopackages up to and including release 3.x to load the data targets (especially with datamarts where one infopackage loads several data targets,
if something goes wrong with the load to one of these data targets then it can be very difficult to correct).
This section contains some arguments in brief why the DTP was introduced with BI 7.0 :
Transfer from one source to one target
BW 3.X
One InfoPackage / Request supplies data for several data targets
Fixed sequence of steps (DataSource / transfer rules / update rules / data target)
Fixed source type: Combination DataSource/source system
Fixed target type: Cube or ODS object or master data
No init selection for extraction from infoprovider
One request can produce several error requests, depending on the data targets
No error handling into ODS Objects
Delta management
BI 3.X: The Receiver for DataSources is merely a logical system, which makes it impossible to have a separate delta management for several data targets within
one system
BI 7.0
Data Transfer Process transports data from one data source to one data target; new source and target types can easily be defined
Arbitrary number of steps (filter objects/transformations) between two persistent objects
Init selection available
Request produces error records stored in generic error stack
Error handling into ODS Objects possible
Resume from persistent buffer
Delta management
BI 7.0: The delta management is maintained by the data transfer process which connects arbitrary sources and targets
I hope the above helps.

Master data loading - Dimension Property value incorrect

Hi,
I have a dimension in BPC which has an attribute amount.
When am trying to load the master data from BW, the number is truncated and displayed with a * if the number has more than 6 digits.
If this is a problem with the delimited - comma - then it should not bring in the values even with one punctuation (e.g. 6,000) but strangely it's happening only for 6 digits or more.
e.g. 19,605,500.00 -> *05500.00
This is master data (estimate field) and is not used for calculations/planning.
I tried the following but nothign worked.
1) Removing commas using a script in the conversion file
js:%external%.toString().replace(",","")
2) Removing the delimiter in the transformation file and making comma as decimal point.
DELIMITER =
AMOUNTDECIMALPOINT = ,
Let me know if you have any ideas to resolve this.
Thanks,
Vasu
Thanks,
Vasu

Hi Vasu,
The field in your BW is 17,2 which I am assuming is a decimal value of 17 digits long with 2 digits after the decimal point. Your property of 40 characters should have plenty of room to fit any value so something else is wrong. Can you please validate the transformation and conversion files with this data?
I highly recommend validating the transformation and conversion files with the new external data. In my experience most of the time when there is a problem in mapping the external data the transformation and/or conversion files do not validate successfully and they generate useful diagnostics.

Troubleshooting 9.3.1 Data Load

I am having a problem with a data load into Essbase 9.3.1 from a flat, pipe-delimited text file, loading via a load rule. I can see an explicit record in the file but the results on that record are not showing up in the database.
* I made a special one-off file with the singular record in question and the data loads properly and is reflected in the database. The record itself seems to parse properly for load.
* I have searched the entire big file (230Mb) for the same member combination, but only come up with this one record, so it does not appear to be a "last value in wins" issue.
* Most other data (610k+ rows) appears to be loading properly, so the fields, in general, are being properly parsed out in the load rule. Additionally, months of a given item are on separate rows, and other rows of the same item are loading properly and being reflected in the database. As well as other items are being loaded properly in the months where this data loads to, so, it is not a metadata-not-existing issue.
* The load is 100% successful according to the non-existent error file. Also, loading the file interactively results in the file showing up under "loaded successfully" (no errors).
NOTE:
The file's last column does contain item descriptions which may include special characters including periods and quotes and other special characters. The load rule moves the description field to the earlier in the columns, but the file itself has it last.
QUESTION:
Is it possible that the a special character (quote??) in a preceding record is causing the field parsing to include the CR/LF, and therefore the next record, into one record? I keep thinking that if the record seems to fine alone, but is not fine where it sits amongst other records, that it may have to do with preceding or subsequent records.
THOUGHTS??

Thanks Glenn. I was too busy looking for explicit members that I neglected thinking through implicit members. I guess I was thinking that implied members don't work if you have a rules file that parses out columns...that a missing member would just error out a record instead of using the last known value. In fact, I thought that (last known value) only worked if you didn't use a load rule.
I would prefer some switch in Essbase that requires keys in all fields in a load rule or allows last known value.
