Fact to Fact linkage thru a map table

Hi,
I have a situation where in two fact tables are linked thru an intermediate map table. The purpose of doing so was to facilitatie an n:n relationship between f1 and f2. So this map table essentially has 3 columns viz pk, f1 key, f2 key. f1 and f2 has it's own sets of dimension tables attached to it. Of these some dimension tables are linked to the fact tables thru corresponding map tables to facilitate n:n relationships. So there are two types of map tables >> between two facts and between a fact and a dim. The reporting requirement is like this: attributes of f1,dimensions attched to f1, attributes of f2s attached to f1, dimensions attached to f2.
The design is tricky and was done a long time ago and solutions are currently running on it. So a design change is not possible. Can somebody suggest an approach to tackle this kind of a relationship?
Many thanks

Hi,
Many thanks for the suggestion.
I'd declared the map tables that connected fact to dimension as bridge tables. When I do the same for a map table between two fact tables, the conistency check fails. I get "Internal error: Missing functional dependancy assosiation for column : Control Legal Entity.d_checker_date" Control legal entity is a dim table which is connected to the fact table thru a map table and d_checker_date is the first column in that table. If i delete this column the same error repeats for the next column.
Any thoughts on this?

Read Value mapping table (java chace)

Hi,
I've updated the value mapping table in java cache via teh replication method. now for some reasons i need to read the values stored before i update the cache in a program. any idea on how to read the data stored in value mapping cache?

Hi Prabhu,
I donu2019t recall all the details, but after researching this before I came to the conclusion that the XI Value Mapping cache should only be used as a cache and not used as the master where item level maintenance is performed. I believe it mainly involved the fact that there is no Update operation. You need to delete first then re-create. However, itu2019s easy to introduce duplicate items if you donu2019t use all the right values for the delete.
So, I added the DeleteContext operation as the first item in the ValueMappingReplication xml. In this way the entire Context is deleted and re-created every time. We can then be sure the cache is always in-sync with our source, which we maintain in Excel.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

Modify entries of Value mapping table fromValue mapping replication

Hi,
I have successful uploaded value mapping table from external source(SAP Table) using value mapping replication. The entries are displayed in the cache monitoring.
Now what should i do,if i have to modify the entries in the value mapping table.I tried uploading the new entries using the same GUID, Agency, Schema.... but now both the previously uploaded and the new entries are dispalyed in Cache monitoring.
But i want only the new entries to get reflected in the value mapping table. So kindly request anyone to help.

Can we Join Fact to Fact obiee11g

Can we Join Fact to Fact obiee11g?

- From a physical data model point of view, yes.
- From a logical data model point of view, not.
To resume, you can but one of the fact must be in the business model layer of the repository designed as a dimension of the other fact table.

Can we join fact to fact?

i am new to obiee i found this question in some bi sites.
” If you have 3 facts and 4 dimension and you need to join would you recommend joining fact with fact? If no than what is the option? Why you won’t join fact to fact?
i found the answer like this
o In the BMM layer, create one logical table (fact) and add the 3 fact table as logical table source.
but i didn't find the anser for Why you won’t join fact to fact?
Pleae guys help me.......................
Thans in advance.

You can join any two table which has some relationship but ideally you don't join Fact to Fact because its not a good practice and degrades performance..

Import conversion data table from SAP R/3 into value mapping table in XI

Hi:
    Somebody knows how to import a table with conversion data that are in SAP R/3 and to take it to a value mapping table in XI?
    The purpose is to use a mapping table that can change in the future. Must I use a ABAP programming that retrieve data and build the value mapping table?
    If so, how I specify in the ABAP programming the group id, the scheme, the agency and the corresponding value?
    Please, help me.
    Regards!!!

Hi David,
please refer to this section in the help: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/2a/9d2891cc976549a9ad9f81e9b8db25/content.htm
There is an interface for mass replication of mapping data. The steps you need to carry out to use this are:
+Activities
To implement a value-mapping replication scenario, proceed as follows:
       1.      Register the Java (inbound) proxies.
To do so, call the following URLs in the following order in your Internet browser:
¡        http://:/ProxyServer/register?ns=http://sap.com/xi/XI/System&interface=ValueMappingReplication&bean=localejbs/sap.com/com.sap.xi.services/ValueMappingApplication&method=valueMappingReplication (for the asynchronous replication scenario)
¡ http://:/ProxyServer/register?ns=http://sap.com/xi/XI/System&interface=ValueMappingReplicationSynchronous&bean=localejbs/sap.com/com.sap.xi.services/ValueMappingApplicationSynchronous&method=valueMappingReplicationSynchronous (for the synchronous replication scenario)
You only need to perform this step once (for each installation).
       2.      Application programming
The ABAP program must perform the following tasks:
¡        Read the value mapping data from the external table
¡        Call the outbound proxy used to transfer the data to a message, which is then sent to the Integration Server
       3.      Configuration of the replication scenario in the Integration Directory
This involves creating all the configuration objects you need to execute the scenario successfully. One special aspect of the value-mapping replication scenario is that the receiver is predefined (it must be on the Integration Server). The sender, however, is not predefined in the replication scenario and can be defined to meet your individual requirements.
For example, you can use the shipped ABAP proxies.
In the case of the receiver communication channel, choose the adapter type XI. Ensure that you configure a channel for the Java proxy receiver in this case.
Enter the path prefix /MessagingSystem/receive/JPR/XI for this purpose.

MDM API to read the Record Key Mapping table

Hi,
Does anybody know what class/method I can use to read the Record Key Mapping table?
For the Business Partner table the Key Mapping table has this columns:
Default / MDM Partner ID / Remote System / Key
I have everything but the Key. How can I read it?
Thanks in advance,
Diego.

GetKey Mapping is one of the available Web Services as of SP4.
Else you could use the Java API to get the Key Mapping.
CatalogData class has the following method
GetKeyMapping
public java.lang.String[][] GetKeyMapping(java.lang.String agency,
 java.lang.String table,
 int[] recordIDs,
 boolean isDefaultKeyOnly)
 throws StringExceptionRetrieves the key mapping for each record.
Parameters:
agency - the agency name.
table - the table name.
recordIDs - the list of records.
isDefaultKeyOnly - True to retrieve only the default value, False to all key values.
Returns: the key values for each record.

Partitioned IOT of Object Type - mapping table not allowed for bitmap index

Hi,
looks like a feature available for standard Partitioned IOTs is not supported for object based tables, namely the MAPPING TABLE construct to support secondary local bitmap indexes.
Can you confirm behaviour is as expected/documented?
If so, is a fix/enhancement to support mapping table for object-based Partitioned IOTs in the pipeline?
Results for partition-wise load using pipelined table function are very good, look-ups across tens of millions of rows are excellent.

Thanks Dan,
the intention is to range partition based on the initial character, so A* -> Text_Part_A, B* -> Text_Part_B, and so on.
Here's an example, using an empty IOTObj_Table as created previously.
1) Set up & confirm some test data (two 'D's, one 'N', and two 'Z's)
SQL> INSERT INTO IOTObj_Table VALUES (IOT_Type('DEF456',500));
SQL> INSERT INTO IOTObj_Table VALUES (IOT_Type('DDD111',510));

DEF456     500
N3000     515
Z111X     530
ZZ1212     520
2) Just to prove our IOT is enforcing the Primary Key based on the TextData attribute, try to insert a duplicate
SQL> INSERT INTO IOTObj_Table VALUES (IOT_Type('Z111X',530));
Error starting at line 141 in command:
INSERT INTO IOTObj_Table VALUES (IOT_Type('Z111X',530))
Error report:

For Trusted Oracle configured in DBMS MAC mode, you may see

3) Now confirm that our data has been slotted into the range-based partition we expect using the PARTITION clause of SELECT...
- The two 'D's...
SQL> SELECT * FROM IOTObj_Table PARTITION (Text_Part_D);
TEXTDATA NUMBERDATA
DDD111     510
DEF456     500
- The single 'N'...
SQL> SELECT * FROM IOTObj_Table PARTITION (Text_Part_N);

SQL> SELECT * FROM IOTObj_Table PARTITION (Text_Part_Z);
TEXTDATA NUMBERDATA
Z111X     530

4) And to wrap up confirm an empty partition
SELECT * FROM IOTObj_Table PARTITION (Text_Part_W);

Message mapping: table lookup

The requirement:
Source message contains some keys and values, and target message has different keys. Values are simply mapped. no problem. but the mapping between source message keys and target message keys is a bit complicated so it is controlled in a seperate table. End users do maintainance jobs on the mapping table on a daily base.
I checked some threads in this forum and I now understand that this kind of table lookup can be done using the combination of JCo, ABAP programs and ABAP tables, but what is the common way in dealing with such kind of requirement?

You can use value mapping if you are not looking at picking up values from application system.It is just like SM30 transcation.You can get the info under SAP XI->Design and Configuration->Configuration->Value Mapping.
If you are in SP13 you can use lookup API SAP XI->Design and Configuration->Design->Mapping look ups.

Lookup value mapping table through message mapping.

Hello All,
I am working on a graphical mapping (message mapping). When trying to map the source message to the target message, I need to find out it a particular key exists in the value mapping table. Depending on the result, I need to map different source fields to the target field.
Is there any inbuilt function which will allow me to do a lookup on a value mapping table, or is it possible to lookup a value mapping table from a UDF?
Please help!

How create a Value Mapping Table in XI 3.0?

Hi:
    I wish make a single sample scenario where receiving data must be converted according to convertion table:
01 -
       Legacy A | Legacy B -
M
             Male:              01     |    M
             Female:            02     |    F
And I don´t know how build it. Must I create anything in Integration Repository? (any special message mapping or function?).
Anyone know about weblog where explain step by step for "value mapping group" and "value mapping tables" creation?
Help me please.
Regards!!
David.

Hi David,
You can create value mapping tables in Integration Directory.
First you have to create Value mapping group using menu Object>new>Value mapping Group
to Display value mapping you have to use Tools--> Value mapping.
Also refer to following link on help.sap.com
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/13/ba20dd7beb14438bc7b04b5b6ca300/content.htm
In IR Graphical mapping tool, use the standard function Conversions-->Value mapping.
Hope this helps.

Accessing ID Value Mapping table in XSLT

Hi Experts,
In the XSLT mapping,I would like to access my value mapping table which i defined in ID .The purpose of ID value mapping here is, the table entries will be changing in future and i don want to use fix values, XML table which is defined in runtime.
I have gone through the blog
/people/sreekanth.babu2/blog/2005/01/05/design-time-value-mappings-in-xslt
which explians design value mapping table in XSLT.
Is there any way to access Configuration Value Mapping table in XSLT? If yes, can you explain how should i achieve it ?

Hi,
you can use the xivmService to call ID val map tables.
Use tha java function executeMapping, Its a standard SAP api.
Declare the Service in XSLT at start
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:vm="com.sap.aii.mapping.value.api.XIVMService" version="1.0">
Call the val mapping table using below template wherever required.
<xsl:template name="ValueMapping">
<xsl:param name="SenderParam"/>
<xsl:value-of select="vm:executeMapping( 'SenderType', 'SenderTypeSchema', $SenderParam, 'receiverType', ReceiverTypeSchema')"/>
</xsl:template>
Call template like :
<xsl:call-template name="ValueMapping">
<xsl:with-param name="SenderParam">
try it and let me know if you have any doubt.
regards
Inder
