How to transform data received from file adapter

hi',
I am reading the data from XML file using file adapter, now I want to write the same contents which I have read from this file to a different/new XML file, the issue is I am unable to perform a transform here, when I use a transform with source element as the output of the file read and target as the input to the new file it is writing an empty file,
I have checked the audit trail which showsme that the transform is empty.
please tell me how can I transform the element which I have received from one file to make them as input to next file
thanks
Yatan

thanks James for input, this is my XML and XSD files
XML file:
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<xsd:schema xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
xmlns="http://www.example.org"
targetNamespace="http://www.example.org"
elementFormDefault="qualified">
<emp>

I am reading XML file, I will describe my process.
1.) File adapter>read operation ---> receive activity
2.) Transform > source(receive input variable) <--->target(Invoke input variable)
3.) File adapter > write operation ---> invoke activity
Now when I am deploying this process it is sucessfully completing and able to read the file.
when I check the audit trail receive activity shows XML data but when I check the transform it
shows empty as below, however the write activity is performed which creates a xml file but no values in the elements

How to transform data while populating an external table

Hi Folks,
I have to populate the first four fields of my external table from the data in a csv file. While the last field should have the "SYSDATE". My code to create an external table (and to populate the first four fields) is as follows
create table T_XT
(PNODE VARCHAR2(10),
NODE VARCHAR2(15),
SUB_NODE VARCHAR2(12),
NODE_COUNT NUMBER,
CREATE_DATE DATE
organization external
(type oracle_loader
default DIRECTORY topology
access parameters
(records delimited by NEWLINE
characterset US7ASCII
badfile 'TOPOLOGY':'Modem_Count.bad'
discardfile 'TOPOLOGY':'Modem_Count.dis'
logfile 'TOPOLOGY':'Modem_Count.log'
fields terminated by ','
optionally enclosed by "'"
location ('Modem_Count.csv')
reject limit unlimited parallel;
Can somebody please let me know where this data transformation (for the last field) should be specified ? And the syntax to do so.
Thanks in advance

How to transform data

Hi,
My Data extraction scenario is
In need ORG ID, JOB ID & Staff ID
I will get all these info from OBJ ID and when restricted to certain type 0TYPE it will get each value.
My requirement is while data loading can we load all the Org IDs to 0Org Unit. JOB id to 0JOB &
Instead of doing it in reporting
If so how can I do that
Thanks

Hi,
You can do this the the update / transfer routine.
Add ORG ID, JOB ID & Staff ID in your data target.
then write the below routines for the below.
ORGID:
select ORGID from /bi0/mOBJ ID into RESULT where
OBJID = comm_structure-OBJID
and TYPE = <your your required one here>
and OBJVERS = 'A'.
do the same for others as well..

How to transform data in the second cube

Hi,
I have been given this scenario where I have to load from one cube into another cube.
The data in first cube is in three currencies
LC      GC      TC
100     200     300
Now when I load this into second cube, I want to insert currency type infoobject and get the result as
Currencytype          Amount
10                     100
20                     200
30                     300
I would greatly appreciate if you can give me your thoughts on how to do this.Looking forward to your inputs.
Regards,
Kal

Hi Kal,
You have to options:
1. To have 3 KFs and 3 currency key accordingly.
2. You have 3 KFs only in the first cube. Knowing in which currency every KF is nominated you can easily determine a currency type and write it into a separate infoobject (there is business content infoobject 0CURTYPE).
In the 2nd cube you'll have a currency type IO and one KF for amounts.
In the start routine of the update rules you'll have to triple every record.
Youll map your amount KF in the 2nd cube with, for example KF in Group currency. The routine will add two more records for the other currencies.
It would be easier to have in the 1st cube 1 KF and currency type. In this case you wouldnt need any routines and mapping would be 1:1.
However, all this ways have a drawack. If you need to report on some particular currency, you dont have this info in the cube.
And as wrote in the previous posts, group currency may differ from group to group. Would you like to mix apples and oranges?
And finally, the generally used approach for such tasks is to have 3 KFs and 3 currency key chars:

Roger,
I don't know about simple way to load data from file into a table using button from your application,
Maybe some piece of PL/SQL code with UTL_FILE or DBMS_LOB, or you can try to upload file to database using Apex "File browse" item, and then do some processing with DBMS_LOB... but it will require some work...
Maybe someone else could advice with some simple method I don't know...
However loading files using Apex Load Utility is quite easy.
You can use something like this to load data to views created on remote tables:
CREATE TABLE local_tmp_table AS SELECT * FROM view_on_remote_table WHERE 1=0;
--load data from file to created table using Apex Load utility
INSERT INTO view_on_remote_table SELECT * FROM local_tmp_table;
COMMIT;
DROP local_tmp_table;Or without views:
CREATE TABLE local_tmp_table AS SELECT * FROM remote_table@dblink WHERE 1=0;
--load data from file to created table using Apex Load utility
INSERT INTO remote_table@dblink SELECT * FROM local_tmp_table;
DROP local_tmp_table;Regards

How to load data from PSA to CUBE & DSO at a time using DTP in BI 7 ?

Plz Suggest me.

Below are the basic steps which we follow in any BI 2004S system:
1)Create datasource. Here u can set/check the Soucre System fields.
2)Create Transformation for that datasource. (no more update rules/transfer rules)
2.1) While creating transformation for DS it will ask you for data target name, so just assign where u want to update ur data.
DataSource -> Transformation -> Data Target
Now if you want to load data into data target from Source System Datasource:
1) Create infopackage for that data source. If you are creating infopackage for new datasources, it will only allow you update upto PSA, all other options u can see as disabled.
2)Now Create DTP (Data Transfer Process) for that data source.
3) NOw schdule the Infopackage, once the data is loaded to PSA, you can execute your DTP which will load data to data target.
If you are loading data from one one data target to other, no need to use PSA, you can directly execute DTP in that case.
Data Source -> Transformation (IP/DTP) -> Data Target1 -> DTP ->Data Target 2
Use the below link for detailed example:
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/fc61e12d-0a01-0010-2883-e2fc63ef729b
Infosources are no more mandatory with BI 7.0, below is the link to scenarios where we use infosources:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/44/0243dd8ae1603ae10000000a1553f6/content.htm
Full or delta depends on your requirement...
chk the below thread to know better
difference between the various loads
hope it helps

How to move data from a staging table to three entity tables #2

Environment: SQL Server 2008 R2
I have a few questions:
How would I prevent duplicate records, when/ IF SSIS is executed many times?
How would I know that all huge volume of data being loaded in the entity tables?
In reference to "how to move data from a staging table to three entity tables ", since I am loading large volume of data, while using lookup transformation:
which of the merge components is best suited.
How to configure merge component correctly. (screen shot is preferred)
Please refer to the following link
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/5f2128c8-3ddd-4455-9076-05fa1902a62a/how-to-move-data-from-a-staging-table-to-three-entity-tables?forum=sqlintegrationservices

You can use RowCount transformation in the path where you want to capture record details. Then inside rowcount transformation pass a integer variable to get count value inside
the event handler can be configured as below
Inside Execute SQL task add INSERT statement to add rowcount to your audit table
Can you also show me how to Check against destination table using key columns inside a lookup task and insert only non
matched records (No Match output)
This is explained clearly in below link which Arthur posted
http://www.sqlis.com/sqlis/post/Get-all-from-Table-A-that-isnt-in-Table-B.aspx
For large data I would prefer doing this in T-SQL. So what you could do is dump data to staging table and then apply
T-SQL MERGE between tables (or even a combination of INSERT/UPDATE statements)
Please Mark This As Answer if it helps to solve the issue Visakh ---------------------------- http://visakhm.blogspot.com/ https://www.facebook.com/VmBlogs

How to load data from a query?

Hi all,
I'm not very familiar with ODI, but we already use it to load table (to Hyperion Planning).
Now, we need to execute a query (I don't want only to apply filter), that cross differents table, to load it. We can't create view in the datawarehouse.
How can I do this? What is your recommendation?
Thanks for your help

Yes, this is possible.
Start with a single query that returns you the data for all lecturers.
Right-click on the "all lecturers" query in the queries pane, and choose Reference, once for each lecturer. This will create a query for each lecturer.
Open the query for each lecturer and filter the data so that only that lecturer's results are visible.
Click "Close & Load To..." for each lecturer's query to load the data into the data model. This will create a data model table for each lecturer.
If your question is more about how to transform such a survey list into a table that can be easily filtered, please provide an example of how the list shows up in Power Query.

I need how to load data from MS Excel(csv format) to NW Excel

Hi,
I am doing Migration project from SAP MS to NW Manually.
I need how to load data from MS excel (csv format) to NW excel .
For example 2008 budget data.
Could you please help me in this.
Thanks and Regards
Krishna

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,
Sreeni

2. The one that i know that we can transfer attribute of Business Partner (0BPARTNER) to CRM.

I really need your guidance & suggestion.
Many thanks all for your attention,

Hi,
1. EEWB in this case is used to create tables in CRM Systems. So once i've made it (the tables), I can see that tables on BW Systems (particularly when i'm creating transformation).
Yes you are correct.

2. The procedure that i should make sequently :
a. [CRM Systems]: Create z-tables through tcode EEWB.
Btw, do i make tables throught this t-code either in BW System & CRM System ?
If yes, Should the project name in EEWB for both system has the similar name?
b. [BW Systems]: Create APD.
c. [BW Systems]: Create transformation in APD for mapping where you'll see the table created in CRM System.
a) correct
You will make tables in CRM system.After the extension creation you can check it in the t-code SE12 in CRM system.
b)by project name you mean the project you assign to the TR's????
then it depends upon your system.SInce these are two different systems therfore you should create two different projects in the two systems and assign the projects accordingly.
c) correct
An for others,
i made project in EEWB then i choose the business object is ADS (Analytical Data Storage) .. => Do i correct in choosing the business object there?
yes.
Yes this is I think a bug.I faced the same issue many times ... what you can do is try to deselect all the key figures and again select the keys.....this will help sometimes....after trying 2-3 times I think you will learn a way to come out of it:)
In future need my help ...you are welcome.
Thanks

hi,
data loading in BI 7.0 from fla file extraction.
fisrt create one Cube or DSO with the same structure which you have in flatfile..
and activate it..
->now comes to Datasource tab> create one Datasource here you need to select type of data for example.. select Transactional data --> and menntion your flatfile name in extraction tab- and file type and eneter your info object names in FIELDS tab --> and load preview data Activate it..
now select your datasource and create info package and schedule it.. now your data will loded in to PSA level...
> and now comes to info provider select your cube.. and right clcik it.. and create transformations.,. and activate it..
> and create DTP -- Activate it.. and Execute it..
1)Create datasource. Here u can set/check the Soucre System fields.
2)Create Transformation for that datasource. (no more update rules/transfer rules)
2.1) While creating transformation for DS it will ask you for data target name, so just assign where u want to update ur data.
DataSource -> Transformation -> (DTP)-->Data Target
Now if you want to load data into data target from Source System Datasource:
1) Create infopackage for that data source. If you are creating infopackage for new datasources, it will only allow you update upto PSA, all other options u can see as disabled.
2)Now Create DTP (Data Transfer Process) for that data source.
3) NOw schdule the Infopackage, once the data is loaded to PSA, you can execute your DTP which will load data to data target.
Data Transfer Process (DTP) is now used to load data using the dataflow created by the Transformation. Here's how the DTP data load works:
1) Load InfoPackage
2) Data gets loaded into PSA (hence why PSA only is selected)
3) DTP gets "executed"
4) Data gets loaded from PSA into the data target once the DTP has executed
