How to convert number datatype to raw datatype for use in data warehouse?

I am picking up the work of another grad student who assembled the initial data for a data warehouse, mapped out a dimensional dw and then created then initial fact and dimension tables. I am using oracle enterprise 11gR2. The student was new to oracle and used datatypes of NUMBER (without a length - defaulting to number(38) for dimension keys. The dw has 1 fact table and about 20 dimension tables at this point.
Before refining the dw further, I have to translate all these dimension tables and convert all columns of Number and Number(n) (where n=1-38) to raw datatype with a length. The goal is to compact the size of the dw database significantly. With only a few exceptions every number column is a dimension key or attribute.
The entire dw db is now sitting in a datapump dmp file. this has to be imported to the db instance and then somehow converted so all occurrences of a number datatype into raw datatypes. BTW, there are other datatypes present such as varchar2 and date.
I discovered that datapump cannot convert number to raw in an import or export, so the instance tables once loaded using impdp will be the starting point.
I found there is a utl_raw package delivered with oracle to facilitate using the raw datatype. This has a numbertoraw function. Never used it and am unsure how to incorporate this in the table conversions. I also hope to use OWB capabilities at some point but I have never used it and only know that it has a lot of analytical capabilities. As a preliminary step I have done partial imports and determined the max length of every number column so I can alter the present schema number columns tp be an apporpriate max length for each column in each table.
Right now I am not sure what the next step is. Any suggestions for the data conversion steps would be appreciated.

Hi there,
The post about "Convert Numbers" might help in your case. You might also interested in "Anydata cast" or transformations.

How to convert number to string in java

hi how can i convert number to string in java
something like
public void Discription(Number ownerName){
String.valueOf(ownerName);Edited by: adf009 on 2013/04/08 7:14 PM

Yet another way of doing it is: ownerName.toString().
If you are working in and IDE such as Netbeans or Eclipse, type a period after the object name. Wait a second or so. Eclipse/Netbeans Intellisense will show you a list of functions that object provides that you can choose from. toString() is one of them.

How to convert Time stamp into exact Date and Time

Hi,
Following is one way of doing it
Timestamp timeStamp = new Timestamp(Calendar.getInstance().getTimeInMillis());
          System.out.println(timeStamp);
          SimpleDateFormat dateFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("MM/dd/yyyy");
          System.out.println(dateFormat.format(timeStamp));
          SimpleDateFormat timeFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("HH:mm:ss");

How to convert from line chart data to CSV format

Hi ,
I am using Flex 3 and AS.
I am getting data from MS SQL and display the data as line
chart this is ok.
But i want to convert this line chart data to CSV or .xsl
format.I find one example in fourms the from data grid to CSV
For this URL is
http://www.abdulqabiz.com/blog/archives/flash_and_actionscript/datagriddataexporter.php
But i want Line chart to CSV.Please help me.

Line chart is a just a visual representation of some data
that's sitting in your database. Isn't it? You load this in Flex,
probably using HTTPService class, and pass it to some chart object.
Now when use says that she needs it in CSV format, you're
gonna have to send another request to the server to produce the
same data, convert into CSV or XLS format and let user download it.
Of course, if use doesn't want to download, you don't have to
go to the server, at least for CSV format. You can convert the same
data that used plot the chart to convert to CSV.
Am I missing something here?

How to convert a string to date and then compare it with todays date???

Hello.
I want to set a format first for my dates
DateFormate df = new SimpleDateFormate("yyyy-mm-dd");
once this is done then I want to convert any string to date object in the above formate
String str="2001-07-19";
Date d = null;
try{
d = df.parse(s);
}catch(ParseException pe) {
pe.printStackTrace();
First of all there is something wrong above,cus what I get for this is
Fri Jan 19 00:07:00 MST 2001
where as it should have been
2001-07-19... to my understanding.
once this part is done I need to get current date in the above set format and compare the
current date and the date I set.
I will appreciate the help.
Thanks

for the output part:
a date is a point in time
the output depends on the format you specify for output
using for example a SimpleDateFormat.
You only specified the format for parsing (which is independent for that of output) so java uses some default format ... see the DateFormat.format() method for details.
for the comparison stuff, I just posted a little code snippet in this forum a few minutes ago.
the hint is: Date.getTime() returns milliseconds after a fixed date

Hi Gurus! how to count number of records in any column of ALV Grid report

Hi Guys!
I want to know how can we count the number of records in any column selected by the user. Like for oe customer there might be 20 sale order that means for 10 customer there will be 200 Sale order. So if i select cutomer number column ti should give 10 out put and whern select sale order it should give 200 as output.
-Anurag Jain

Hi,
Either you can use the hotspot_click event or double_click to show the Pop-up info of the Sales Order count or customer Count depending on the selection.
In the hotspot_click event method you have E_ROW_ID E_COLUMN_ID..using these you can find the Sales Ordert or customer Number.. Loop the internal table and find the Count.
In the double_click event method you have E_ROW E_COLUMN..using these you can find the Sales Ordert or customer Number.. Loop the internal table and find the Count.

How to convert the numeric to date format

HI ,
     We have created the date KF and selected the data type as DEC-numeric or counter and add in the cube.
      the data for this fields in the cube are in numerics like 734.504, but when we execute the report it is converted in to date format dd.mm.yyyy.
                My issue how this conversion is working in the backend while executing the report.
Regards.
venkata

Conversion is happening because of the type you had selected for the KF while creating it.
Check the type of the Key figure?
While creating the KF you might have selected the Type as Date and Data type -DEC : Counter or amount field with comma and sign.
that's the reason why you are getting the output values displayed in dd.mm.yyyy format.
For amount field - create a KF with type "AMOUNT" and unit -0currency or specify the currency of that region.

How to convert a timestamp to date/time in CDS View?

Dear experts,
I would like to convert a timestamp to a date and time within a CDS view.
This is what I tried to do:
Cast (Cast(<timestamp> as abap.dec(8,0)) as abap.dats) as <date>
I also thought about first converting the timestamp into a plain numerical character, then using substring and then casting it to abap.dats. Then its giving me an error that says: "dec can't be converted into numc".
The above written code also throws an error - "function not allowed/ no cast within a cast".
It is quite nasty not being able to write a cast within a cast - how else am i supposed to achieve a date here?
I am looking forward to have your answers!
Thanks and BR
Anja

Hi Anja,
what you try to do is currently not possible, a feature not available in CDS views.
Yet it surely is a feature, ABAP developers would like to see on the feature request list .
Cheers,
Jasmin

How to convert a string to date object?

Check the java.text.SimpleDateFormat class. You can use it for parsing dates. API contains good description how to build the format pattern.

How to convert number field into time

Hi
I have made a form for storing of private dialed calls from different extensions. To store call duration i have assigned a number field which is storing following type of data
1.34
1.19
37.29
1.47
In above mentioned data decimals are seconds and left side is minutes.
Now the requirement is that if second is > 30 then 1 minute should be added in minutes else 30 seconds should appear instead of original seconds.
Please Help!

>

>
Please provide info about the form in which you RECEIVE the data. Do you receive the data in MM.SS format like you say you are storing it?
If not, why are you storing it this way?
Unless you have some reason to STORE the data differently just store it the way you got it. That way you won't lose any precision and you can manipulate it any way you need to for display purposes.
If you receive START_TIME and END_TIME then store both of those. Don't calculate and store duration; you will lose END_TIME and if you later need to calculate duration to a different precision you won't be able to.
Where is the data being stored? Oracle?
Write a simple function to convert a duration to minutes and seconds using the '>30' rule you have. Then if the rule changes you can write a new function or modify the existing one and the data itself doesn't have to change.

How to Convert JDBC sender adapter data to a canonical then give to BPM

Hi All,
My Scenario is as follows:
JDBC Adapter --> BPM (Business Rules + Many JDbc calls).
I get the data from a database using sender adapter.
I understand that this is of a Specific Format of the result set like <Row>. Can i convert this to a canonical format and then give this to Integration Process (receiver)
Can I include a mapping to transform this adapter specific format to a canonical format before I give this data to the integration process?
This is because I pull data from 3 applications and I want to use a common outbound interface (Canonical) for all the 3.
Is this possible, please explain me how.
Thanks,
Meher

Hi Meher
BPM is right fit here . In BPM designing you need to use Fork Block with three branches - In each branch you use one receiver where you get data from 3 tables in 3 different message types.
Use 4 abstract message interfaces with the 4 different message types required.
Need to map these 3 Message type to a common Canonical message format you are expecting. It will provide the single structure of message type needed.
