How to import SH Sample Dimensions and Cubes with OWB Client

Hi, is there a functionality to import the Dimensions and Cubes from the sample to reuse and manipulate them within the OWB Client?
I can add Dimensions in the Enterprise Manager but mapping should be difficult- right?
Specs: DB 10g rel2, OWB 10.1.0.4

dimension - either define a table on your own, or use the data modeler and physically define a new dimension.
Cube - same as above.
as for levels and hierarchies, this can also be done in the data modeler. You can specify keys, levels, attributes, measures...all that stuff for dims and facts. There many tabs on the lower half of the dimension modeler screen that control this.
Check out the oracle by examples for easy tutorials.

Building Dimensions and Cubes in 11.1

Hi Experts,
Can anyone provide me a weblink or atleast steps as to how to create a Dimensions and Cubes in OWB 11.1.
For practice purpose i am accessing HR User. In there i have selected Locations and Countries table and is using it to create the Place_Dim (Place Dimension)
Issues:
1. What are Levels and Heirarchiies
(In ROLAP its asking me to use the surrogate Key i both the levels)
2. It is asking me to bound it to table or view. I have never seen any help regarding in bounding and out bounding in the tool.
Please help.
Regards,
Ravi Remje

Many Thanks Dave for your help. The links are very helpfull.
I have a silly doubt in my mind. Kindly apologize for my dumbness.
Concerns:
I went through the OWB tool and came to the conclusion that the DIMENSIONS and CUBES are logical object. However, if i want to use it as a Physical table, is it any way as in how we can use the simple tables as different types of dimensions and facts by changing their loading type. Is it any possible way to implement the same feature for DIMENSION and CUBE objects. I dont want them to be used as views but as a table.
Please help.

Cannot find object after creating dimension and cube.

I need to develop a project using olap api to get olap data.
My db release is 10.1.0.2, owb is 10.1.0.4.
After i create dimension and cube in owb, I cannot find any object i have created in owb. Except that in OEM, after i click the button dimension, there comes an message as that the dimension does not have complete metadata or was created by old release and OEM will create a metadata for it. After that, I can find the dimension in AWM and get the imformation using olap api.
However, there is no measure button in OEM, I cannot find the measures in measure folder. So that i cannot get the information of the MdmMeasureDimension using olap api.
Can somebody help me with this issue? Thanks!

With OWB 10.1 and prior releases to get OLAP metadata for a dimension or cube you must have used the OWB transfer wizard to deploy the OLAP metadata. This bridge basically creates and executes a script with all of the CWM calls to create the OLAP dimension and cube metadata.
When you deployed the dimension from OWB in 10.1 it only created the 'create dimension DDL' for the object.

How to load data to dimensions and fact table is it simialr to sql server

How to load data to dimensions and fact table in a data ware house environment, is it simialr to sql server, oracle?
Never migrated or loaded data to datawarehouse server.

Coudl you please if you don't mind provide me some steps and dimension and fact table info, an example only.
Atleast for my knowledge.
Thank you very much for the helpful info.

Using dimension and cube operator

hi
I am facing problem in using this dimension and cube operator..
Actually I want to create a sales data with dimensions as time,customer and product
After creating a dimension in owb I get a table created attached with it same is the case with cube operator
so where should I store my measures in the cube or the table created and where to store the data about dimensions in the table created.
and finally how to use them in mapping to retrieve the data stored
Thanks

It sounds like you are not getting any matching keys for loading into the cube.
Do you have a time dimension created by OWB in the cube? The key used by the cube operator for an OWB time dimension is a formatted number. The time dimension keys are stored as follows;
Day Level - YYYYMMDD
Month Level - YYYYMM
Week Level - YYYYWW
Quarter - YYYYQ
Year - YYYY
If you have a source that has a SQL date datatype for example and want to construct the key for a cube's time dimension at the day level something like the following expression can be used to construct the time reference from a SQL date...
to_number(to_char( time_key, 'YYYYMMDD'))
It may not be this but just a thought.

How can i add the dimensions and data loading into planning apllications?

Now please let me know how can i add the dimensions and data loading into planning apllication without manuallly?

you can use tools like ODI or DIM or HAL to load metadata & data into planning applications.
The data load can be done at the Essbase end using rules file. But metadata changes should flow from planning to essbase through any of above mentioned tools and also there are many other way to achieve the same.

Can CWM2 API creating dimensions and cube reference a view

Can CWM2 API creating dimensions and cube reference a view instead of a table.
Can the following API reference a view instead of table
For creating dimensions
CWM2_OLAP_TABLE_MAP.MAP_DIMTBL_HIERLEVEL
CWM2_OLAP_TABLE_MAP.MAP_DIMTBL_HIERLEVELATTR
For creating cubes
CWM2_OLAP_TABLE_MAP.MAP_FACTTBL_LEVELKEY
CWM2_OLAP_TABLE_MAP.MAP_FACTTBL_MEASURE

Hi!
Yes!
And I am using views sometimes.
I am reading at this moment also the following...
maybe someone can explain me this sentence...
MULTIPLE FACT TABLES:
"The CWM2 APIs also support multiple fact tables per cube. In this case, the data
associated with a given combinations of hierarchies can be stored in a separate fact
table. All the fact tables associated with a cube must have the same column
structure."
I get a fetch error message..'cause of this.
What does it mean by "the same column
structure" ???

OWB 11.2.0.1 dimension and cube operators + ODBC target database

Hi,
We are considering using OWB to populate a netezza data mart making use of the dimension and cube operators.
Could we use OWB for this/is it supported in this manner or do we need to use another ETL tool/workaround.
Understand OWB supports ODBC as target.
Any advice much appreciated.
Thanks

Hi
You can have ODBC targets but the cube/dim operators use MERGE loading type so its not a tested/supported case using the operators with Netezza. It has been optimized for Oracle.

How to import my photos to Photos libray with the same folder name?

how to import my photos to Photos libray with the same folder name?

You can import a folder of photos to the Photos.app by dragging the folder onto the Photos icon in the Dock. That will open an Import panel, and you can select to import all photos from the folder. But the folder name will be lost.
The photos will appear in the "Last Import" album. Select them all in the Last Import and create a new album with the folder name (fFile > New Album).

Above is my data
I have to fetch the record_type from a lookup where I can have any of the record type, sometime USES, HOW TO USE, SIDE EFFECTS and sometimes some other set of record types
In my report I have to get these record typpes as field name dynamically whichever is available in that lookup and record values against them.
its a BI Publisher report.
please suggest

if you have data in db then you can create xml with needed structure
and so you can create bip report
do you have errors or .... ?

When the client logs in you write the client's ID and the current time to a database. Likewise when the client logs out. Assuming of course that you have a program that knows when those events occur.
