How to load date field from a remote Oracle DB with DB Connect

Hi,
Does any one have experience extracting Date field from a remote Oracle database through DB Connect to BW?  I am experiencing data format issue.  The extracted data shows '04-Oct-0' for '10/4/05'.  It works fine if I create a view in Oracle database to preformat the data to '20051004'.  But, I am not allowed to create view in Remote DB.
Any suggestion is very appreciated.
Regards,
Frank

You have to change it to a varchar2 field. YYYYMMDD. I do not know of any other option.

  • Loading Date fields from flat file to Oracle tables

    Hi,
    I have a flat file with a few date columns. I have given the format for the date field while creating the data store for the flat file. The format I used is 'YYYY-MM-DD'.
    But I get an error when I execute it after associating the module with LKM & IKM.
    The error message is as follows:
    org.apache.bsf.BSFException: exception from Jython: Traceback (innermost last):
    File "<string>", line 3, in ?
    OS command has signalled errors
    Can anyone help me out.
    Thanks

    At the time of DataStore creation. You take that date field as string.
    After this, in interface, when you map this date field with table field. You should use CONVERT(<field name>,DATE) in expression editor.

  • How to separate date fields from t:calender ip?

    Hi All,
    I am using tomahawk calender in my jsf page.
    <t:inputCalendar id="startDate" value="#{bean.startDate}" renderAsPopup="true" popupDateFormat="MM/dd/yyyy" forceId="true" />
    Inside bean , I have
    Date startDate= new Date();
    when I print this startDate, I get
    Tue Apr 24 00:00:00 IST 2007
    I want to get date and month separately..how to do this?
    because in Date class getDate() method is deprecated...
    Thanks in advance...

    I do not have 2008, but you should be able to edit the subreport and run it seperate of the main report.
    add a formula to the sub to return the dates that are comming from the main report.
    Check the links to the sub-report.
    You should have two links, one for mindate one for max
    Check to see if you have a checkbox above a section that says
    Select data in subreport based on field.
    This advice may be way off for 2008.  but is valid in CRXI

  • How to load data from a ODS to CUBE Request ID - by - Request ID?

    <i>How to load data from a ODS to CUBE Request ID - by - Request ID?</i>
    The problem is that... some requests had been eliminated of the cube and the delta control between the ODS and CUBE was lost. The flag "<b>data mart status of request</b>" of all the requests of the ODS had been blank.
    Now it is necessary to load some requests from the ODS for the cube.
    Notes:
    - it is not possible to make a complete load selecting the data to be loaded;
    - the PSA is not being used;
    - considering the data volume it is impracticable to reload the cube completely.
    Thanks in advance,
    Wesley.

    Dear R B,
    Considering the following:
    -> the delta control was lost;
    -> the data already are active in the ODS;
    -> part of the data of the ODS already is in the cube.
    The indicated procedure it only guarantees the load of the data that are in the ODS and that are not in the cube.
    Tks,
    Wesley.

  • How to load data from a  flat file which is there in the application server

    HI All,
              how to load data from a  flat file which is there in the application server..

    Hi,
    Firstly you will need to place the file(s) in the AL11 path. Then in your infopackage in "Extraction" tab you need to select "Application Server" option. Then you need to specify the path as well as the exact file you want to load by using the browsing button.
    If your file name keeps changing on a daily basis i.e. name_ddmmyyyy.csv, then in the Extraction tab you have the option to write an ABAP routine that generates the file name. Here you will need to append sy-datum to "name" and then append ".csv" to generate complete filename.
    Please let me know if this is helpful or if you need any more inputs.
    Thanks & Regards,

    Hi,
    You need to create a transformation file and a conversion file if required. First upload the excel (csv) file into BPC using Manage Data and Upload File option.
    Create the transformation file (refer to the sap help  on how to define a transformation file). You need to specify the mapping correctly and include all your application dimensions and map them to appropriate columns of the flat file.
    Before running the import package, do validate the data in the flat file you uploaded into BPC with the transformation file you created.
    Thanks,

  • How to load data from Quikbooks into PeopleSoft General Ledger module ?

    Folks,
    Hello.
    My client's data is currently stored in Quikbooks.
    After install PeopleSoft FSCM 9.0, I need to load the data from Quickbooks into PeopleSoft General Ledger module. But I don't know how to use PeopleSoft Integration Broker to integrate with Quikbooks.
    Can any folks tell me how to load data from Quikbooks into PeopleSoft General Ledger module ?

    Hi,
    If the data load is one time process, then you can use PL/SQL or datamover to load the data to PeopleSoft application.
    If you want to load the data in real time, then you need to create In-bound and out-bound nodes to perform the transaction.
