Export table to flat file and need to insert sysdate in flat file column

Hi, I created an interface to export oracle table to a csv file. All of the table columns are working well. Then I need to insert the sysdate in csv file column.
I made the mapping as working in staging area, implementation is to_char(sysdate,'dd/mm/yyyy'). But the result is insert 14 to the column.
I have tried to create a variable refreshing as select to_char(sysdate,'dd/mm/yyyy') from dual, then mapping that to the column in csv file, but it only insert to 1 row and the format is yyyymmdd.
I have tried to use  SELECT '<%=odiRef.getSysDate( "yyyyMMdd")%>' from dual for the variable, and it also only insert one row to the flat file.
I used the same methodology in ODI10g, it works fine.
So, I am wondering how it can be implemented in 11g.
Thanks

The first option you have stated seems like the obvious choice - I don't see any reason why this shouldn't work.  What do you mean by "But the result is insert 14 to the column." Do you mean that it inserted the string "14" (I can't imagine why this would be the case) or that it inserted 14 rows?

  • Based on input file i need to update default values to some columns of database table using bulk copy process

    Hi Team,
    Am using BULK INSERT Format file option to load data into table from .txt file here am facing an issue i.e ibased on input file i need to insert default values to some columns of table so we can not declare it on table level, Can we give default values in
    format file ? if we can give how it is ? or Any alternate possibilities to this scenario instead of BULK INSERT ?
    Thanks,
    Sudhakar

    Thanks for your response, here i don't have any rights to change table structure the table is created by different team, my work is to load data from file to table. Is there any chance to supply default values by*XML* format file instead of *.fmt* file
    please let me know the possibility.
    Again, no. If you want to supply default values that are not present in DEFAULT constraints in the table definition, you will need to write your own code. There are plentyfull of options, and I have mentioned some already.
    Here are some more:
    *  Table-valued parameters, see here for examples:
    http://www.sommarskog.se/arrays-in-sql-2008.html
    *  Use BULK INSERT to load data to a staging table, and then apply the default values when you copy from staging to target.

  • I have nine, 1-page PDF files that are accessible and need to combine into 1 PDF file.  I have tried appending, adding and the combine PDFs process. The file created is not keeping my changes. The created file is partially accessible but I have to re-fix

    I have nine, 1-page PDF files that are accessible and need to combine into 1 PDF file.  I have tried appending, adding and the combine PDFs process. The file created is not keeping my changes. The created file is partially accessible but I have to re-fix issues I had fixed in the single files. I need suggestions on what else can be done if any. Using Acrobat pro XI.

    Out of habit, I tend to combine PDF files in the Page Thumbnails pane by right-click then "Insert Pages" -> "From File". For me, this preserves the tags from both documents, although the tags may have to be moved into the right location (if I recall correctly the tags for the inserted pages get put at the end of the tag structure, regardless of where the pages are inserted), If I first put the tags for the document to be inserted inside a container tag like Section, it makes the process easier. Moving that set of tags to the right place is the only re-fixing that I recall having to do. What behavior are you experiencing?

    Not certain this is what you're after, but this :
    #import the contents of both csv files
    $dbexcel=import-csv c:\dbexcel.csv
    $liveexcel=import-csv C:\liveexcel.csv
    #prepare the output csv and create the headers
    $outputexcel="c:\outputexcel.csv"
    $outputline="Name,Connection Status,Version,DbExcel,LiveExcel"
    $outputline | out-file $outputexcel
    #Loop through each record based on the number of records (assuming equal number in both files)
    for ($i=0; $i -le $dbexcel.Length-1;$i++)
    # Assign the yes / null values to equal the word equivalent
    if ($dbexcel.isavail[$i] -eq "yes") {$dbavail="Available"} else {$dbavail="Unavailable"}
    if ($liveexcel.isavail[$i] -eq "yes") {$liveavail="Available"} else {$liveavail="Unavailable"}
    #create the live of csv content from the two input csv files
    $outputline=$dbexcel.name[$i] + "," + $liveexcel.'connection status'[$i] + "," + $dbexcel.version[$i] + "," + $dbavail + "," + $liveavail
    #output that line to the csv file
    $outputline | out-file $outputexcel -Append
    should do what you're looking for, or give you enough to edit it to your exact need.
    I've assumed that the dbexcel.csv and liveexcel.csv files live in the root of c:\ for this, that they include the header information, and that the outputexcel.csv file will be saved to the same place (including headers).

  • ITunes has encountered a problem and needs to close when adding movie files

    So.. I haven't done anything recently with installing any new versions of itunes or anything of the such. Just one day whenever I tried to add .mp4 files (videos) on my ipod using Itunes, it crashes with the error message "iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close." and it closes the application. I can add music files just fine.
    anyone else having this issue? If so, can you let me know what you have done to fix this problem?
    Also, I got fed up today and decided to uninstall Itunes and Quicktime and then downloaded the most recent off Apple's site and that still didn't work.
    Please help....

    One other thing.. all the movies that I currently have in Itunes that once worked no longer work either. It crashes when I attempt to play them as well in Itunes.
