How to create data stores in ODI ?

Hi all,
I am new to this ODI part.Can anyone please help me as how to create data stores in ODI.
A prompt reply will be highly aprreciated.
Thanks
Saurabh.

What do you mean by "create datastores"?
If you mean you want to reverse engineer existing tables from a database, then the phrase used in the ODI docs is "reverse enginnering". If you mean to create new tables in a database, then:
1) ODI is not meant to be a database design tool.
2) Using the "diagrams" node under a data model, you are able to use the "Common Format Designer" (CFD) tool to design and create the structure. The CFD tool is a simple ER-digram tool, but importantantly, if you drag structures in from one model to another, it remembers where it came from, allowing automatic generation of interfaces, and it automatically translates the data types.

How to create CWM2 Metadata using OWB 10.1.0.4

Hi
Somebody know how to create CWM2 Metadata using OWB 10.1.0.4 ?
Best Regards

The process should be the same - however there are specific things you'll need to do if you are trying to deploy from JDev 10.1.3 to OAS 10.1.2.
For example: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B32110_01/web.1013/b25947/deployment_topics.htm#CIHGIAAE

Adobe CQ5.5 Digital Asset - Delete default metadata and how to create custom metadata

Hi
I am trying to create custom metadata for all format of assets (PDF, DOC, TXT, etc.,). I have created the dam folder under apps node as below:-
Step 1: /apps/dam/content/asseteditors/formitems
Step 2: Included the four property as textfield and selection according to our requirement under formitems
Step 3: I changed the cq:allowedTemplates from /content/dam/jcr:content
Step 4: I tried to upload the asset, I could get the custom metadata for Txt, Doc, PPT, XLSX
Step 5: But for JPG, PNG and PDF I am getting the default metadata which is huge list.
How to control this one? I want my custom metadata only displayed for creation assets. Find the attached.
CRX - Custom Template Configured
CRX - Custom Metadata populated for ZIP format
CRX - Custom Metadata not populated for PDF format

Hi,
If you read the description under section http://dev.day.com/docs/en/cq/current/dam/how_to_edit_metadata.html#Creating New Metadata Property for Assets you will find yout the format for images and its different format stores at different location. So to deal with image metadata plz try below
1. Create a "image" node under "/apps/dam/content/asseteditors" as sling folder and configure it similar to "/apps/dam/content/asseteditors"
2. under this folder again copy paste the "/libs/dam/content/asseteditors/formitems" and customize it accordingly
Above will help you to manage with all types of images. Now if you want to have separate group of property for different image types then similar to above you have to create format node inside image folder for example jpg file type create a node with name "jpeg" under "image" node & configure similarly as you did for image.
I hope it will help you to proceed. Please let me know for more information.

How to create mapping diagrams in ODI?

Is there anything in ODI similar to informatica stencil for visio to create the mapping design diagrams to show the data flow and transformations in a visio schematic diagram?
Thanks for your feedback.

thanks for your reply.
I am not looking to find where to design/create the map in ODI.
This is for a schematic representation of the mapping for design documentation to show how the map is going to look like with icons of various transformations involved in the map and connecting arrows to show the data flow in the map.
Something similar to this for informatica:

How to create custom report plugin using child region report metadata

Hi,
I want to ask for help on how to create custom report plugin using child region report metadata. My idea is to create a child region, a classic report and set the condition to never.
Then i will query the child report metadata from apex view and use it to create a custom report like using jquery jq-grid. Any idea how i can create a process that will use the child report
metadata? I dont know how i can create a process just like how apex work, how apex render report, coz i want it to be control using the standard apex report attribute. This plugin will
render according to the child report attribute.
Is there anybody here had ever done this?

Hi Nicolette,
Thanks for the reply. I know where to find the metadata, just asking for idea on how the rendering process will be.
Start from determining column heading, column order until finish rendering the report. The same way how apex
render the classic report.
Previously this imy my rendering process:
FUNCTION GETCOLUMN(P_REGION IN APEX_PLUGIN.T_REGION,
                     P_PLUGIN IN APEX_PLUGIN.T_PLUGIN,
                     P_VALUE IN VARCHAR2) RETURN SYS.DBMS_SQL.DESC_TAB2 IS
    VSQLHANDLER     APEX_PLUGIN_UTIL.T_SQL_HANDLER;
    VCOLCOUNT       NUMBER;
    VCOLNAMES       VARCHAR2(2000);
    VAJAXIDENTIFIER VARCHAR2(100);
    VPAGESIZE       TYPEATTR := P_REGION.ATTRIBUTE_04;
    VJSCODE         VARCHAR2(32767);
BEGIN
    VSQLHANDLER := APEX_PLUGIN_UTIL.GET_SQL_HANDLER(P_SQL_STATEMENT => 'select * from s_emp',
                                                    P_MIN_COLUMNS    => 1,
                                                    P_MAX_COLUMNS    => 999,
                                                    P_COMPONENT_NAME => P_REGION.ID);
    VCOLCOUNT := VSQLHANDLER.COLUMN_LIST.COUNT();
    FOR I IN 1 .. VCOLCOUNT LOOP
      VCOLNAMES := VCOLNAMES || '{name: "' ||
                   UPPER(VSQLHANDLER.COLUMN_LIST(I).COL_NAME) || '",';
    END LOOP;
    APEX_PLUGIN_UTIL.FREE_SQL_HANDLER(VSQLHANDLER);
    RETURN VSQLHANDLER.COLUMN_LIST;
EXCEPTION
    WHEN OTHERS THEN
      APEX_PLUGIN_UTIL.FREE_SQL_HANDLER(VSQLHANDLER);
      RAISE;
END GETCOLUMN;
So this is how i get the header for my report plugin. The same method is use to get the value / data for each column. This process is work. So now
i want to extend my plugin so that i will use all attributes from the child report to render my plugin. So the column header, column order, all will depend
on the child report. And the column display condition is set, it will also check the condition before render the column. Sounds like i want to reinvent
the normal apex rendering process but this is what i want to achieve.
I need help to find the correct logic for my render process. Don't want too much for starting, just want to render the plugin correctly, same with child report,
same columns alias, column ordering and column conditional display.
Thanks,
akulala

How to create a people picker type metadata in a document set?

Hi folks,
I want to create a people picker type metadata in a document
set (it has some content types and it resides inside a library).
So please help me knowing steps for creating it.
Our web application is using classic based authentication therefore I want to retrieve the names and groups in people picker column from Active Directory.
Also, the document set library for which I want to create people picker metadata did not had document set before and documents where saved directly in content types as well as the metadata that now we are making as people picker was before of type Single line
of text.
So, whether after creating it of type people picker, at the time of moving documents into document set, it will create problem? If yes,than of of what kind and how can it be resolved?
Replies will be greatly appreciated.
-Ishita

Hi,
From your description, I know you want to add a people picker column in a document set, then add this document set into a document library.
If you want to add a people picker column in a document set you should create a document set first. You can know how to create and configure a document set by referring to this article: https://support.office.com/en-us/article/Create-and-configure-a-new-Document-Set-content-type-9db6d6dc-c23a-4dcd-a359-3e4bbbc47fc1.
After creating a document set, you can follow these steps below to add a people picker column in a document set: click Site Actions -> Site Settings -> under Galleries section, Site content types -> find the content you want to add people
picker column -> under Columns section, Add from new site column -> Name and Type, enter your column name and choice Person or Group -> OK.
If you move documents into document set, it will keep the current properties. You can edit properties to change the document to another content type which is contained in the document set.
In my case, DocA is the content type of the document library, Document and DocB are content types of the document set.
If I have mis-understand, please let me know.

How to create OLAP Catalog Metadata from Analytic Workspace

Hi,
How to create OLAP Catalog Metadata objects automatically from Analytic Workspace, not using CWM2_OLAP_AW_OBJECT package.
Is there tool for it?

Analytic Workspace Manager is the supported tool from Oracle for creating OLAP catalog metadata (plus the SQL views required for BI Beans). Hopefully this should be out in June as an additional download following the 9.2.0.3x patch.
However you might want to look at IAF Software's "Coaster" product (http://www.iafsoft.com/products/coaster.htm) which also contains functionality to create the OLAP Catalog. We've had a play around with it and have been impressed.

How to create interface where you can view metadata of several databases

How to create interface where we can view metadata of several databases:
Oracle Apex should display metadata of this particular DB (later on we can include multiple DB’s)
          a. Report should first display DB name
          b. When clicked on DB name, should display 3 schemas
          c. When clicked on 1 schema, should display tables – when clicked on each table,
          should display various column names and its corresponding metadata.
          (similarly for other schema’s also)
          d. In short, it should be like a drill down report.
Help required for craeting like above.
Appreciate your help.

I did something similar a while back. I had an application reading from multiple schema's for reporting purposes..IN that case atleast we just would build the selects using a function reurning SQL select, so that we could have an application item with the selected schema they wanted to use to build into the select returned...
For forms, that would be an interesting idea, don't know how you can dynamically change the table owner name, since it is a drop down control in development..
Thank you,

How to create .app format metadata.

Hi hyperion Experts,
how to create .app format metadata , can you give me any one steps pls ..
thanks in advance..

- Open the HFM Client
- Click Extract Metadata
- Click on the selector button next to the Metadata Filename field
- in the 'Save AS Type' dropdown, select HFM Application Files (*.app)
- enter the file name you want in the File Name Field
- Click Save
- Click Extract
To edit, open in Excel or notepad, etc. (If using Excel, be careful on saving to make sure you save it back to the proper format)
If you want to make one from scratch, I'd extract something first to have a starting point. Once you see one, the format should be pretty straight forward.

Unable to change Date Created in Metadata

Please help with my first post...
Unable to change Date Created field in Metadata.
I am a newspaper photographer sending .jpg pics with captions to my office from my iMac. They are viewed at the office on Windows PCs using SCC MediaGrid.
When changing Date Created in Metadata Invalid Format warning appears "Format should be ISO 8601 XML compliant, that is YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm[:ss][tz] (eg 2006-07-11T13:14:30-07:00)"
If 2009-09-26, for example, is entered then exported pictures opened up in Photoshop or shown on SCC MediaGrid do not display the date.
To get dates to show up I first have to open a pic in Photoshop, go to File Info, enter 26/9/09 in Date Created and Save As.
Next I have to Import this into Aperture where the Date Created shows as "20090926".
Using Lift Metadata and Stamp Metadata the date can be transferred to other pics.
Now when I export these pics the date does show up in Photoshop and SCC MediaGrid.
Can Date Created be typed straight into field in Aperture?...Very important when pics go into archive on a server.
Also if I hit Return key in a Metadata Caption, to type on the next line, both lines will appear as one with a small square in-between them when viewed on SCC MediaGrid on a Windows PC.
Thanks in anticipation.

Nick I don't generallt use the IPTC metadata, so I'm not sure I will be too much help.
What version of Aperture are you using? I tried both things and I didn't have any problems with the latest version of Aperture on my Mac.
I was able to enter a date into "Date Created" both with and without the time-zone adjustment. Can you tell us the exact string you tried to enter into the "Date Created" and exactly when you get the error? I tried to enter my time zone (eastern US) as "-5:00", but Aperture wouldn't let me enter the 5 and popped up the error message when I typed that key. I had to use "-05:00".
As for the caption, when I hit return, Aperture ends my edit. I cannot reproduce your described behavior of actually getting a new-line into the field. I suspect your problem (although I don't know how you get to your problem) is one of the following:
1) The IPTC standard doesn't tell if the software should use a Unix-style end-of-line (which is a line-feed), or a DOS/Windows style end-of-line (which is carriage-return followed by line-feed). Aperture may put in the Unix-style and your Windows programs don't know what to do with it.
2) The IPTC standard does indicate the end-of-line style, but either Aperture or your other programs don't follow it.
or
3) IPTC Metadata doesn't actually support end-of-line, so Aperture should not allow you to enter multiple lines, but it has a bug so it does allow you to do that.
Can you tell us where exactly you are editing the caption? I tried it in the inspector pane (on the left) in the "Metadata" tab, and then I hit the "IPTC" button at the bottom of the tab.

How to create an encrypted key for a user table

I have an airshow website where volunteers and vendors can apply online (www.hollisterairshow.com) . The city attorney requires that we have a wet signature on a printed application form so the volunteer/ vendor currently has to print their application at the time they apply online, then sign it and mail it in and this works fine. Unfortunately, we have had a lot of instances where volunteers/ vendors needed to print their application again and the only way we could do this was for an administrator to print their application to a pdf file and e-mail the file to them. So, I'd like to improve this process by automatically sending an e-mail to the applicant when they apply online with a link to a printable page and containing a key pointing to their application. This way, volunteers/ vendors could print and sign their application whenever they want and as many times as they need to. Each volunteer is a single row in a volunteer table and each vendor is a single row in a vendor table.
The key I use in the tables is a sequential key automatically incremented by MySQL so I would end up sending them a link looking something like www.hollisterairshow.com/printvolunteerapp.php?volunteernumber=27 . This would work, but it wouldn't be hard for a volunteer to change it to a different volunteernumber and so get access to someone else's personal information, which would not be acceptable. So, I'm thinking I need a secondary key that is somehow scrambled and used as an secondary index in the table so I'd be sending a link that mght look like www.hollisterairshow.com/printvolunteerapp.php?volunteerkey=sygew . So I'd really appreciate some advice on how to create a scrambled secondary index for each volunteer or vendor and plug it into the link I send them in the e-mail.
Thanks for any advice.

Your question is not clear whether you want to create account or you want to create agent.
For creating local agent you can refer
http://bhabaniranjan.com/configure-odi-11g-local-agent/
For creating EE Agent you can refer
http://bhabaniranjan.com/configure-odi-java-ee-agent-on-windows-server-2008-64-bit/
For creating account, login to supervisor and then go to security tab. There you can create different user to login to odi Studio. Let me know If i understand you correctly or not.
Thanks.

How to get the metadata in Designer?

In Acrobat, I can get the metadata by "this.metadata".
The Designer's Help said: use "xfa.form.desc" to instead of "this.metadata".
The "desc" has a method "metadata(Integer para)" to return the metadata's info.
I use the code "xfa.form.desc.metadata(0)" in designer.
But alert the error "GeneralError :Operation failed".
Who can tell me how to get the metadata in Designer?
Thanks.

Thank you,radzmar.
I use the "xfa.host.messageBox(""+xfa.event.target.metadata);" in a button's clickEvent.
