DATALOAD FILES TO LOAD ITEMS

Hello,
Can somebody send to me, by mail attachment, a sample file used by DATALOAD to load items into Oracle Applications 10.7 NCA?
An Excel Macro would be good too.
Pascal

You can download from DATALOAD's website the latest version of the application plus the sample data.

How can I make an easy *.CSV file to load into database table

Hi All,
I have a huge excel sheet having columns item#, description and qty. The description column sometimes maybe one word name, two word name separated with space or may be , spearated name. I want to write and PL/SQl code which will read this file and load it into database table. Now the *.CSV file is either comma delimited or tab text delmited which both do not solve my issue. Is there any better solution with anyone which can prevent the manual editing to the *.CSV file and I can easily load it to table.
Your help is appreciated,
Thanks
Zahir

SQL*Loader is probably the fastest method, but since you specifically asked for a PL/SQL method:

Using API to run Catalog Bulk Load - Items & Price Lists concurrent prog

Hi everyone. I want to be able to run the concurrent program "Catalog Bulk Load - Items & Price Lists" for iProcurement. I have been able to run concurrent programs in the past using the fnd_request.submit_request API. But I seem to be having problems with the item loading concurrent program. for one thing, the program is stuck on phase code P (pending) status.
When I run the same concurrent program using the iProcurement Administration page it runs ok.
Has anyone been able to run this program through the backend? If so, any help is appreciated.
Thanks

Hello S.P,
Basically this is what I am trying to achieve.
1. Create a staging table. The columns available for it are category_name, item_number, item_description, supplier, supplier_site, price, uom and currency.
So basically the user can load item details into the database from an excel sheet.
2. use the utl_file api, create an xml file called item_load.xml using the data in the staging table. this will create the xml file used to load items in iprocurement and save it in the database directory /var/tmp/iprocurement This part works great.
3. use the api fnd_request.submit_request to submit the concurrent program 'Catalog Bulk Load - Items & Price Lists'. This is where I am stuck. The process simply says pending or comes up with an error saying:
oracle.apps.fnd.cp.request.FileAccessException: File /var/tmp/iprocurement is not accessable from node/machine moon1.oando-plc.com.
I'm wondering if anyone has used my approach to load items before and if so, have they been successful?
Thank you

Xml file not loading from different server

Hi,
I have a simple flash banner that is pulling a number from an xml file on a different server. When it gets to the frame where the number should be it just says "transferring data from eckul.com" and will not actually pull in the number. Unfortunately I can't put the files on the same servers. Any help would be much appreciated, below are the links and the xml code I'm using followed by the action script. Cheers
http://www.sainters.net/newsletters/2010/flash_test_membership2.html
http://www.eckul.com/number.xml
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<inventors>
    <person>
        <name>892</name>
        </inventors>
function loadXML(loaded) {
if (loaded) {
_root.inventor = this.firstChild.childNodes[0].childNodes[0].firstChild.nodeValue;
_root.comments = this.firstChild.childNodes[0].childNodes[1].firstChild.nodeValue;
name_txt.text = _root.inventor;
comment_txt.text = _root.comments;
} else {
trace("file not loaded!");
xmlData = new XML();
xmlData.ignoreWhite = true;
xmlData.onLoad = loadXML;
xmlData.load("http://www.eckul.com/number.xml");

so, in frame 1 of your fla before you execute that cross-domain load method, use:
System.security.loadPolicyFile("http:www.yourcrossdomain.com/subdirectoriesIfNeeded/crossd omain2.xml");
where the following (crossdomain.xml) is in www.yourcrossdomain.com's root (IF you want to allow allow subdirectory policy files):
<!DOCTYPE cross-domain-policy SYSTEM "http://www.adobe.com/xml/dtds/cross-domain-policy.dtd">
<cross-domain-policy>
<site-control permitted-cross-domain-policies="all"/>
</cross-domain-policy>
and in the subdirectory (and its descendents) that you want to allow access put crossdomain2.xml:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE cross-domain-policy SYSTEM "http://www.macromedia.com/xml/dtds/cross-domain-policy.dtd">

Year 2010-2011 MacBook Pro version 10.7.4 issues: freezes up, files are loading slowly and buttons are not responding

Hello my fellow Apple product user's. My problem has been going on for about a month and half with my laptop locking up, file folders on my desktop loading slowly and my sleep button and other buttons on my dash board not responding. Where to being with my issues that are listed up in my title and my first scene. The first issue has been my file folders are not loading fast like that did before, the issue is that they load in about 10-15 if not a little longer after I log into my laptop desktop. The second issue is that my sleep button does not respond to sleep right away, I have to press it three or four different times after I have logged out of my desktop to make it go to sleep. The final problem is dealing with my buttons and laptop locking up, when I started an application called runescape after it load to the log in screen and after I came back to log into the game it decide to lock up/ froze on me and durning that time my buttons on my dashboard was not responding, so I decide to command q to quit the application and after that buttons were not reponding to it and I decide to do common and control c to see if it would work and it did and after that everything has been working fine except for the files are loading slowly. Also I had another issue with the laptop sleeping so quick as soon I am using the Internet. There was one other problem that had happen to me just like my description in my first scene, but I do not remember that issue.
Please no spamming, flaming and being plain rude to me and others. If you can not listen, read, or under stand my warning you will be kicked off from posting on threads buy a froum monitor. Pleas and thank you for posting and helping me out with fixing my problems.

How to extract data from multiple flat files to load into corresponding tables in SQL Server 2008 R2 ?

Hi,
          I have to implement the following scenario in SSIS but don't know how to do since I never worked with SSIS before. Please help me.
          I have 20 different text files in a single folder and 20 different tables corresponding to each text file in SQL Server 2008 R2 Database. I need to extract the data from each text file and
load the data into corresponding table in Sql Server Database. Please guide me in how many ways I can do this and which is the best way to implement this job. Actually I have to automate this job. Few files are in same format(with same column names
and datatypes) where others are not.
1. Do I need to create 20 different projects ?
               or
    Can I implement this in only one project by having 20 packages?
             or
    Can I do this in one project with only one package?
Thanks in advance.

As I said I don't know how to use object data type, I just given a shot as below. I know the following code has errors can you please correct it for me.

Adding multiple artwork files to several items on iTunes 11

Hi all.
in previous versions of itunes one could add artwork in several ways one of which allowed for easily adding several artwork files to more than one item at once without replacing the existing artwork.
I am talking about the little square that was on the left bottom corner of the screen and you could chose if you want to watch the artwork for the currently playing song or the selected song. you could paste into it or simply drag onto it. it would add the art work in appose to replace the existing one as happens when you do it from the info window.
this little square disappeared from version 11 and now I am unable to add several files to several items at once.
anyone solved this pickle?

treyer11 wrote:
IThe point is, I could drag and drop previously and have gone backwards in capability which is supposedly against what Apple platforms inherently stand for.
The point is it has not gone backwards in capability. It works just fine. I can drag & drop to multiple selected items just fine.
Something is wrong wtih your install.

Troubles with xmp files not loading...

I'm having troubles with xmp files not loading with images but are present in the image folders. does anyone know why this is happening and if there is a way to fix this. Also when trying to load the xmp individually they are grayed out and unable to load. I have tried this on different machines (Macs) and still no luck. Any help would be greatly appreciated in this issue.

> The information contained in the XMP file is stored in the DNG file so there is no need for a separate file.
Aww, yuck!! That's a real drag...
When editing lots of files (yesterday's shoot produced 8GB) I back everything up to off-line storage and then, after doing all my edits and crops in ACR, I only have to copy over the small XMP files which takes no time at all.
So if I re-edit the DNG with ACR I have to re-copy ALL the files again to the off-line storage.
I used to sometimes even save 2 versions of the xmp files when I needed 2 different crops of the same images, such as doing a wide screen 'cinema' crop for a corporate client's Intranet presentation of their event, as well as more standard crops to be used for their newsletters.
Guess I won't be using DNG any more..
Thanks for the help Kees :-)

"File Browse" type item: at what point the fields mime_type, file_name, last_update_date get their values?

Hi there,
I have an issue with "File Browse" type item, my question is: at what point the fields mime_type, file_name, last_update_date get their values? I want to add them to the collection but if I try to do it in Process "On Submit - After Computations and Validations" the values in those fields are still null (that's for the insert, and for the update they have old values). Also I don't seem to be able to add blob to the collection ("File Browse" type item (which has the source as blob database column) can't be assigned as parameter p_blob001 of APEX_COLLECTION.ADD_MEMBER, error is: PLS-00306: wrong number or types of arguments in call to 'ADD_MEMBER').
What I am trying to do is this: I have parent table (TABLE1), and child table (TABLE2). In TABLE2 I store documents. I have a main page that is form on TABLE1, and on it I have button "Add documents" that opens popup window with form on TABLE2. On submit of popup page I want to avoid inserting document into TABLE2, instead I want to send data to the main page (using collection) and insert in only once the main page is submitted.
I would appreciate any advice on this...
Thanks,
Tanya

Dynamically changing the name of the .dll file to load in call Library

Our current model is to use dll files as "plug-in" modules for instruments and a top layer test step calls the appropriate driver dll.
For instance
the TestStep is called with the kenmore.dll passed as a parameter so the kenmore.dll file is loaded, the functions are registered and the functions are called. Next the TestStep is called with whirlpool.dll as a parameter now the whirlpool.dll is loaded the functions are registered and the functions are called. This works very well in our current CVI/LabWindows environment. Now we plan to work with LabView, we wish to retain this model (as DLL files, there are advantages in our model for us). We have not found a way to load these dll files from LabView without hard coding the path and filenames in.
Any suggestions on how to dynamically change the path in the Call Library module, or another suggested method of loading the dll via LabView?
Thanks,

As Ben has pointed out LabVIEW
scripting may be a possibility but you are going with that in highly
unsupported area. Also I happen to know that changing the library name
of a Call Library Node through scripting has produced unsupported
feature errors previous to LabVIEW 7.1 eventhough the method was there.
And LabVIEW 8 hides the whole scripting business behind the license
manager.
Another approach at least if the different DLLs do not change to often
thier functions and parameters would be to create a wrapper DLL. Have
it a method that loads the desired DLL and links its functions to
internal function pointers. Then when calling the actual function entry
points just redirect directly to the correct fucntion through that
function pointer. Since you are already working in CVI creating such a
DLL should be only a matter of taking out a little bit of your already
existing code and put it into a DLL project.

Mapping in Transformation file for loading infoprovider

Mapping in transformation file for load from infoprovider:
The requirement is : if Account of BW starts with 70XXXXXXX then use char1 if Account of BW starts with 12XXXXXXX then use char2 in BPC dimension 2.
So, in the transformation file for a load from an infoprovider we want for a dimension to use the data from a certain BW characteristic based on the characteristic Account.
For example if the account start with 70 then use for a certain bpc-dimension u201Cdetailu201D the characteristic of 0COUNRTY should be used, if account start with 2 the char X should be used etc..
Following in the transformation works but the issue is that we have to specify all the accounts individually (+100 accounts in the statement which is not feasible):
BPC_detail = *IF (BWACCOUNT = str(70000010) then 0COUNTRY;str(NO_DETAIL))
Where BPC_detail is the dimension in BPC and BWACCOUNT is the characteristic in BW.
Following statement does not work: there is also no documentation available how to do this:
BPC_detail = *IF (BWACCOUNT(1:2) = str(70) then 0COUNTRY;str(NO_DETAIL))
Is there a solution/statement that fulfills this requirement for the load of an infoprovider?
( so similar to what you can do with the load of a flat file like for example: Entity=IF(col(1,1:1)=U then SEntity;*col(1,1:1)=Z then *col(1,3:6); *STR(ERR)) )

How to design Flat file for loading attribute dimension in a planning application

Dear Gurus,
I have a requirement to extract attribute dimensions from an essbase application and load it to another planning application. I have a dimension called Program and two attribute dimensions Sales Manager, Accounts manager associated with Program dimension in Essbase application. I will Extract these dimensions using Essbase outline extractor. After Extracting the attribute dimensions I have to load these dimensions to planning applications using outline load utility. Kindly guide me how to design the flat file for loading attribute dimensions in planning application.
Thanks and Regards
SC

You could dig through the docs and try to figure out the file format manually, or you could do this the easy way. Simply use the Outline Load Utility to export your attribute dimension from Planning. The export file format is the same as the import file format. You might have to manually add a couple of test members to your attribute dimension so that your export file has some content. Then simply update the file you exported, and import it.
(I am assuming you have already manually created the Attribute dimension in Planning, and that you simply need to add members to it.)
Hope this helps,
- Jake

Remove / unload external swf file(s) from the main flash file and load a new swf file and garbage collection from memory.

Andrei1,
Thank you for the helpful advice. I made the changes as you suggested but I am receiving a #1009 error message even though my site is working the way I wan it to work. I would still like to fix the errors so that my site runs and error free. This is the error I am receiving:
"TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference."
I'm sure this is not the best method to unload loaders and I am guessing this is why I am receiving the following error message.
     loader.unload();
     loader2.unload();
     loader3.unload();
I also tried creating a function to unload the loader but received the same error message and my portfolio swf was not showing at all.
     function killLoad():void{
     try { loader.close(); loader2.close; loader3.close;} catch (e:*) {}
     loader.unload(); loader2.unload(); loader3.unload();
I have a question regarding suggestion you made to set Mouse Event to "null". What does this do setting the MouseEvent do exactly? Also, since I've set the MouseEvent to null do I also have to set the loader to null? e.g.
---- Here is my updated code ----
// variable for external loaders
var loader:Loader;
var loader1:Loader;
var loader2:Loader;
var loader3:Loader;
// makes borders resize with browser size
function resizeHandler(event:Event):void {
// resizes portfolio page to center
     loader.x = (stage.stageWidth - loader.width) * .5;
     loader.y = (stage.stageHeight - loader.height) * .5;
// resizes about page to center
     loader3.x = (stage.stageWidth - 482) * .5 - 260;
     loader3.y = (stage.stageHeight - 492) * .5 - 140;
//adds gallery.swf to stage at begining of moviie
     Down();
//PORTFOLIO BUTTON
//adds eventlistner so that gallery.swf can be loaded
     MovieClip(root).nav.portfolio.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, Down, false, 0, true);
function Down(event:MouseEvent = null):void {
// re adds listener for contact.swf and about.swf
     MovieClip(root).nav.info.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, Down1, false, 0, true);
     MovieClip(root).nav.about.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, Down3, false, 0, true);
//unloads gallery.swf from enter frame if users presses portfolio button in nav
     var requester:URLRequest=new URLRequest("carouselLoader.swf");
     loader = new Loader();
     loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, ioError);
     function ioError(event:IOErrorEvent):void {
     trace(event);
     try {
     loader.load(requester);
     } catch (error:SecurityError) {
     trace(error);
     this.addChild(loader);
     loader.x = (stage.stageWidth - 739) * .5;
     loader.y = (stage.stageHeight - 500) * .5;
// sure this is not the best way to do this - but it is unload external swfs
     loader.unload();
     loader2.unload();

SWF Files Not Loading

I created a master fla and swf files to load into the master
file externally. Everything loads into the master file just fine
when I view it in flash or flash player. However I need to add a
background to it along with a couple other things that I only now
how to do in dreamweaver. Dreamweaver will load the master flash
swf but it wont load the external swfs. Please help if you can.
Thanks.

I am not sure I completely understand what you are trying to
do. Can you give us a link to the page in question?
