Dimension with two columns In DWH

Hi all,
I am new to SSIS. Can i know if it is good model to create the dimension with only two columns i.e the key & the dimension in data warehouse (Eg: Company key, company Name)..
Thanks
sush

Yes no problems with that. But if there are any directly related attributes in another tables which qualifies company entity and is required in analysis it would make sense to include them within same dimension to avoid snowflaking (lookups) like say Company
Status, CompanyGroup etc
Its better to have denormalised tables which would have as much related attributes as possible for analytical/reporting purpose. Even in SSAS it would enable facts to be analysed using any of these attributes using a single regular relationship with the
common unified dimension

How to create a form with two column headings

I have a business request to create a data form to handle multi year data by month. This will require creating a form with two column headings - with the first row be Year and second row be month, and data entry will begin in the third row and down.
I can do multiple row headings in the layout design, but somehow can not get it to work for multiple column headings.
Thanks in advance

If you're in the "Layout" tab, simply pull the "Years" dimension and the "Period" dimension into the Column section. Planning can be a little picky about where you "drop" the dimension as you're dragging and dropping it. Drop it in the cell directly under the letter name of the column. Other than that, there's not much to it.
Hopefully this helped,

How to define form within a table with two columns?

Hallo,
i want to design a form with two columns side by side.
My way is to define a table within the form:
<af:panelForm>
<afh:tableLayout width="100%">
<afh:rowLayout halign="left">
<af:inputText value="#{bindings.StsNr.inputValue}"
label="#{bindings.StsNr.label}"
required="#{bindings.StsNr.mandatory}"
columns="#{bindings.StsNr.displayWidth}"
readOnly="true">
<af:validator binding="#{bindings.StsNr.validator}"/>
<f:convertNumber groupingUsed="false"
pattern="#{bindings.StsNr.format}"/>
</af:inputText>
<af:selectOneChoice value="#{bindings.StammsaetzeStsEmpfangsart.inputValue}"
label="#{bindings.StammsaetzeStsEmpfangsart.label}"
tip="Brief, Fax, Mail">
<f:selectItems value="#{bindings.StammsaetzeStsEmpfangsart.items}"/>
</af:selectOneChoice>
</afh:rowLayout>
</afh:tableLayout>
</af:panelForm>
Is there a better way to do it?

Hi reiasmus ,
Try <af:panelForm row="X">, that specifies the number of fields by columns. If you have ten fields and you fix row="5", you will obtain two columns with 5 rows on each.

Populating a table with two columns using a custom bean

hello,
Can someone provide me or give me a link to an example of populating a table (with two columns) with a custom bean?
thank you
fwu

1)create a java class
2)have a list as a class variable
3) populate the list in the constructor..
4) map the values in the af:table
//Employee pojo
public class Employee {
    public Employee() {
        super();
    private String empName;
    private String empManager;
    private String job;
    public void setEmpName(String empName) {
        this.empName = empName;
    public String getEmpName() {
        return empName;
    public void setEmpManager(String empManager) {
        this.empManager = empManager;
    public String getEmpManager() {
        return empManager;
    public void setJob(String job) {
        this.job = job;
    public String getJob() {
        return job;
//maanged bean
public class Bean {
private List<Employee> employee;
    public Bean() {
        super();
        employee = new ArrayList<Employee>();
      Employee e1 = new Employee();
      e1.setEmpName("xxxxx");
      e1.setEmpManager("xxxxxxxx");
      e1.setJob("xxxxxxx");
      Employee e2 = new Employee();
      e2.setEmpName("yyyyyyy");
      e2.setEmpManager("yyyyyyy");
      e2.setJob("yyyyyyt");
      Employee e3 = new Employee();
      e3.setEmpName("zzzzzz");
      e3.setEmpManager("zzzzzzz");
      e3.setJob("zzzzzzzz");
      employee.add(e1);
      employee.add(e2);
      employee.add(e3);
      employee.add(e4);
    public void setEmployee(List<Employee> employee) {
        this.employee = employee;
    public List<Employee> getEmployee() {
        return employee;
    }in the table map like
<af:table value="#{Bean.employee}" var="row" rowBandingInterval="0"
                    id="t1">
<af:column headerText="Employee Name" id="c1">
              <af:inputText value="#{row.empName}" id="it5"/>
            </af:column>
            <af:column headerText="Employee Manager" id="c2">
              <af:inputText value="#{row.empManager}" id="it2"/>
            </af:column>
</af:table>

ComboBox with two columns?

Do you guys know how we can have a DAC comboBox with two columns(e.g. emp_no, emp_name) to update a column(e.g. emp_no) in database?
Thanks for your response.

grin You don't like my suggestion of creating a view ( or view object ) that where you concatenate 2 or more strings of interest into a separate new attribute... that is used to display?
Yeah, kinda hokey, but quick to implement.

Report module: LOV with two columns

I would like to create a LOV with two columns in a designer generated report module.
scott@ntw>select deptno, loc
2 from dept;
    DEPTNO LOC
        10 NEW YORK
        20 DALLAS
        30 CHICAGO
        40 BOSTON
        50 LAS VEGASIs it possible to create the lov of the report module with an indivdual select statement?
Does anyobody have an idea?

Hi,
There are probably a number of ways that you can handle this, but the underlying principle for all of these would be that you need to have 2 reports. The first report would contain the first ten records and the second report would contain the next ten.
The way to do that would be to get the ROW_NUMBER() value for each line and, in the query defintion for each report, you would have a WHERE clause that restricted the results based on this value. The best way to do this would be to create a view and base the reports on this view. The view definition would include:
ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY xxxx) AS ROW_NUMBER
where xxxx is the same order definition as the main ORDER BY clause. Each row will then get a ROW_NUMBER value that matches it's position in the query resultset.
Your first report would then have a WHERE clause of:
WHERE ROW_NUMBER < 11
the second report would have:
WHERE ROW_NUMBER BETWEEN 11 AND 20
The final step would be styling/positioning the reports. The first would probably be in Column 1 in the region and the second in Column 2. You would almost certainly have to adjust the styling and/or positioning using a style attribute in the region/report definitions.

Topics with Two Columns, and ?s about Margins

I've been searching all over and can't quite get the answers I need. I have a robohelp project which will solely be for written documentation. Some of the topics within this project I would like two have two columns, the left column will just have headings and the right side will have content. I did accomplish this by making a table, however I can't remove the borders. I also tried another way by using this, which works great but when I made printed documentation it didn't make it look like I have on my screen (printed the headings all together then the content on later pages).
#container2 { clear: left; float: left; width: 100%; overflow: hidden; } #container1 { float: left; width: 100%; position: relative; right: 50%; } #col1 { float: left; width: 50%; position: relative; overflow: hidden; } #col2 { float: left; width: 50%; position: relative; overflow: hidden; }
So I guess I have a few questions to try and make this project go smoothly. Since I will only be using this project for written documentation, what would be the best way to make sure that each topic I am working on will print the way I want it to (margins, etc.)? Is there a good way to deal with my two column issue? Would making a style that indents the text be a good solution?

You may also want to check out CSS columns. That will allow you to work without using tables and let the browser to take care of the rest. See: http://www.w3schools.com/css/css3_multiple_columns.asp

How can I setup an .indd with two columns with different threads so that I can export to epub?

Hi all. Sorry, english is not my native language. I´ve made an .indd: each page has two columns with different threads (is a bilingual text). When I export this .indd to .epub only appears one column from a thread following the next thread. What can i do to fix this? My indesign is CS6
Thank you

There are fixed format EPUB files as can be used for children's books, etc. where there are a lot of illustrations. However, those are very work-intensive to produce. I've never worked on one.
Anne-Marie Concepcion did a Lynda.com video on producing one.
Rorohiko produces a product called ePubCrawler which can help in produced fixed format EPUB files:

Problem with two-column layout

Hello,
I've done table-based layouts for several years, but I'm
trying to switch to CSS. I still have a lot to learn...
I'm trying to create a web site as a favor for a friend. She
hasn't figured out what she wants yet, so I've just been creating
some pages using canned designs. I created one using "Two-column
left nav" under Dreamweaver's "Page designs (CSS)":
http://www.alcie.org/demo2/
I want a fixed-width left navigation column and a fluid
content column.
I ran into several problems with the original design. The
most notible was that if I changed the browser window width, both
the content and nav columns would resize. I didn't want that, so I
set "navBar" width: 150px. That worked, but if I make the window
too narrow, the content starts to overlap the navigation column in
Firefox 1.5.0.6, and the navigation DIV drops to below the content
in IE 7 rc (I think) 3 and IE6. I tried removing the width
altogether, but that made things worse.
What is wrong with this picture? Is there a cleaner way to
solve my problem?
Thanks.

> Is there a cleaner way to solve my problem?
Yes - dump that layout. It's too quirky. Go here and grab one

Help with two columns

So I have two columns on my page and when I type the left column spills over into the right column. But this is not what I want to happen. I want the text that I type on the left to stay on the left and the text on the right to stay on the right. Please Help!

Welcome to Apple Discussions
I'd use a text box for one column or the other or text boxes for both. You can then link the left box on one page to the left box on the next page.
Another option is to use a two-column table, but I think text boxes is easier.

Using IN with two columns

Hi all,
I have to perform a query like x,y not in(select x,y from k). How to do this. These two columns are composite primary keys in both tables although no references exists.
A sample table and expected result.
create table v(name varchar(10),place varchar2(10));
create table t(name varchar(10),place varchar2(10));
insert into t values('Antony','Ollur');
insert into t values('Paul','Ollur');
insert into v values('Antony','Ollur');
I need to select second row from table t which does not exist in v.
Expected result
Paul Ollur
Thanks in advance.
Antony Paul

There are a number of ways to do this:
SELECT * FROM t
WHERE (name, place) NOT IN
   (SELECT v.name, v.place FROM v)
SELECT * FROM t
WHERE NOT EXISTS
   (SELECT null FROM v
    WHERE v.name = t.name
    AND    v.place = t.place )
SELECT t.name, t.place FROM t, v
WHERE v.name(+) = t.name
AND    v.place(+) = t.place
AND    v.name IS NULL
SELECT t.name, t.place FROM t, v
WHERE v.name != t.name
OR     v.place != t.place
/The AND version of this last query doesn't work because both rows in T match a row in V on the basis of PLACE.
Cheers, APC

Sort a table with two columns based on the first

I have a powershell table with the columns 'Used Perc' and 'ID'.
This was formed from the following
$a = @{Expression={[System.Math]::Round(($_.nUsed_Avg/$_.nSize)*100,1)};Label="Used Perc";width=25}, @{Expression={$_.nStatisticalDiskIdentificationID};Label="ID";width=15}
$GLOBAL:CSV2 = Import-CSV $STATDISKOUT | Format-Table $a
Before this, the file $STATDISKOUT had the columns 'nUsed_Avg', 'nSize', and 'nStatisticalIdentificationID'.
My question is, how would I sort the new table based on 'Used Perc' but keeping the corresponding 'ID' column lined up to the right value?

We use a select statement to reorder columns and recalculate, The formatters just go at the end to adjust the display.
Import-Csv <file> | select <column order format> | Format-Table
or you can do it in the table:
Import-Csv <file | Format-Table -Properties ,f1.,f2.,,f3....Here is how to inset a sort inline:
$a=@{
L='ID';
E={$_.nStatisticalDiskIdentificationID};
L='Used Perc';
E={[System.Math]::Round(($_.nUsed_Avg/$_.nSize)*100,1)}
Import-CSV $STATDISKOUT | Select $a | Sort 'Used Perc' | Format-Table -Auto
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
