How to use an ODI variable in an IKM?

Hi,
I am trying use the value of ODI variable in IKM SQL Incremental Update. The variable contains the count of error records. My problem is how to use the variable in the IKM. I am trying to use the variable in an If condition like:
<%if(%>#COuntReprocessRec<%>0){%>
I have declared the variable as Numeric.
Thanks.

Hi,
For the below requirement follow the below steps.
I have to execute the 'Insert of flow into I$ table' step of IKM, only if Error records are present in my source table. The IKM i am using is IKM SQL Incremental Update.
Create a new step before 'Insert of flow into I$ table' step, i say "Check Error Record".
Command on source
Technology : <your source technology>
Schema: Whichever schema points to ur source error table
Command:
select count(*) as row_count from <table_name>
Command on Target
Technology : Jython
Command:
CountData=#row_count
if CountData>0:
##raise ' \n\nThere are error records in source error table'
Thats it.
This will stop the flow in case of error records persist in ur source table, else it allow the flow to next Insert I$ step.
P.S: Replace ## with TAB.
Thanks,
Guru

Script logic - how to use a selection variable within an allocation logic

Hi,
I want to implement a simple top-down distribution to distribute values from a yearly budget (Y20xx.TOTAL) to a quarter budget (Q20xx.Q1, ... Q20xx.Q4) using the actuals of the previous year as reference.
If we hard code the members it works fine:
*RUNALLOCATION
*FACTOR=USING/TOTAL
*DIM ACCOUNT WHAT=ACC_NOT_ASSIGNED; WHERE=BAS(FIN); USING=<<<; TOTAL=<<<
*DIM TIME WHAT=Y2009.TOTAL; WHERE=BAS(Q2009.TOTAL); USING=BAS(Q2008.TOTAL); TOTAL=<<<
*DIM CATEGORY WHAT=SBO; WHERE=<<<; USING=ACTUAL; TOTAL=<<<
*ENDALLOCATION
Of course, we want to make this dynamic, using the values inputted in the selection screen of the package: time, entity and category.
So if we start with write the following logic, it does not work anymore:
*RUNALLOCATION
*FACTOR=USING/TOTAL
*DIM ACCOUNT WHAT=ACC_NOT_ASSIGNED; WHERE=BAS(FIN); USING=<<<; TOTAL=<<<
*DIM TIME WHAT=%TIME_DIM%; WHERE=BAS(Q2009.TOTAL); USING=BAS(Q2008.TOTAL); TOTAL=<<<
*DIM CATEGORY WHAT=%CATEGORY_DIM%; WHERE=<<<; USING=ACTUAL; TOTAL=<<<
*ENDALLOCATION
So, how to use the selection variables in this allocation logic? %TIME%, %CATEGORY% also did not work ...

Hi Dries,
Looks like you solved this, but if I can just add a small point -- when you use syntax like this:
*DIM ACCOUNT WHAT=ACC_NOT_ASSIGNED; WHERE=BAS(FIN);
*DIM TIME WHAT=Y2009.TOTAL; WHERE=BAS(Q2009.TOTAL);
each time the logic runs, it will scan through the dimension from the FIN and Q2009.TOTAL members, one level at a time, until it reaches the base members (where calc = 'n'). This may happen very quickly, if the dimension has very few levels, but could take a bit of extra time if it's a particularly deep dimension. (By which I mean many levels of hierarchy -- not some 1970's Pink Floyd musical reference.)
You may speed things up by using a member property instead of the BAS(xyz). Flag all the base members using a specific property value, and that way the logic engine can pick up the complete list of members in the WHERE clause, in a single query.
*DIM Account What=ACC_NOT_ASSIGNED; Where=[FloydProperty]="DarkSideOfTheMoon"; ...
This adds some maitenance work in the dimension, which may be problematic if your admins are changing it regularly (and will cause problems if they forget to update this particular property).
I can't predict how much time this will save you (maybe not much at all), but anyway I figure you'd want to know exactly what work you're asking the system to perform.

How to use attributes in variable substitution???:(

Hi all,
Could you please help me out in how to use attributes in variable substitution....
Regards,
Sundar

Hi,
Use Adapter Specific Identifiers , instead of Variable Name substitution.
Sender File adapter --> Adapter Specific Attributes --> Select File Name
Reciver File Adapter -->Adapter Specific Attributes --> Select File Name
In the mapping , use this code in an UDF to change the filename to what you want,
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","FileName");
String filename="YOURFILENAME";
String rSourceFileName = conf.put(key,filename);

How to convert alphanumeric ODI variable to numeric

hi,
I am using ODi 11g,
I am having an ODI variable PVV_X of alphanumeric type.
And now I am having a variable PVV_Y in which the refereshing tab has this type of select query :
select sess_beg from snp_session where sess_no = #PVV_X;
Now these two variables are in a package.
My query is that the columne sess_no in the table snp_session is of type number.
How would i comapre the alphanumeric ODI variable value to that of the numeric column value of the database table ?
thanks,
divya

Hi,
What is the datatype of "PVV_Y" ?
how PVV_X is getting the value? I mean ru running any refresh query to get this value.
If "PVV_Y" is also a alphanumeric then Oracle will do an implisit datatype conversion.
To prove this , I have done a small POC..
Created a package with
PVV_X -> Declare variable with alphanumeric
PVV_X -> Set with session no
PVV_Y -> Declare varaible with alphanumeric
PVV_Y-> Refresh variable with
select sess_beg from odi_work.snp_session where sess_no=#p_odi_refresh
It worked.
Note: Please make sure the schema is correct for the refresh query.
Thanks

How to use a presentation variable in filter conditions

Hi,
I have set a presentation variable "day" on my dashboard prompt containing a date column. I now need to use this presentation variable in the filter clause to restrict the dates between "day" and sysdate.
So i apply the following SQL filter:
where day between '{@variables.day}' and current_date
But I end up in getting the following error:
State: HY000. Code: 10058. [NQODBC] [SQL_STATE: HY000] [nQSError: 10058] A general error has occurred. [nQSError: 17001] Oracle Error code: 1861, message: ORA-01861: literal does not match format string at OCI call OCIStmtExecute. [nQSError: 17011] SQL statement execution failed. (HY000)
I even tried casting the presentation variable to date, but to no avail. Can someone let me know how to specify the date format for the presentation variable.

How to use a global variable for reading a query resultset in JDBC lookup?

Hi Friends,
Using JDBC lookup, I am trying to read from a table Emp1 using a user defined function. In PI 7.0, this function returns values of a single column only even if you fire a " Select * " query. I am planning to use a global variable(array) that stores individual column values of the records returned by a "select *" query. Need pointers on as to how a global variable can be declared and used to acheive the above scenario. Kindly explain with an example. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Amit.

Hi Amit,
Sounds like a good idea but then you would need an external db and update the table in a thread safe way !.
Regarding your question as to how to work with global variable please refer https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/weblogs?blog=/pub/wlg/1352. [original link is broken] [original link is broken] [original link is broken]

Use BAM in ALBPM --- How to use "Business Indicator variable" ?

In ALBPM60_Studio_ReferenceGuide.pdf, there is text like that:
Using Variables in BAM
When creating a Project variable, you can define it as a Business Indicator variable. This allows the variable to be stored in BAM the database.
When you add Business Indicator variable to your process, a column is added to the following BAM database tables:Workload, Task Performance and Process Performance. The name of this column is the Business Indicator name preceded by the prefix "V_".
If you define a business dimension, the workload table contains one row for each possible value of this business dimension present in the process. Each of this rows will show the quantity of instances that match that business dimension.
When you define a measurement business variable the sum of this variable's value for all in flight is stored into workload table. If business dimensions were defined as well, then this sum will be divided into as many rows as business dimension values present in flight instances.
Task performance table stores one row for each instance that completes an activity. Each of these rows contains the value of dimensions and measurements at the time the instance completed the activity.
In a similar way, process performance table stores one row for each instance that gets to the end activity. Each of these rows contains the value of dimensions and measurements at the time the instance completed the whole process.
QUESTION:
1. What's meaning is that writed in bold italic? (Can anybody give me a samaple?)
2. How to use Range of Business Indicator variable?(When I set range in my sample,this varible can't save into BAM_WORKLOAD, BAM_TASKPERFORMANCE, BAM_PROCESSPERFORMANCE)

Is it possible to use a ODI variable in a procedure

I am trying to call an external java program from the operating system (MS-DOS) using a procedure. This is possible using the os.system("<command>") syntax - declaring a procedure to use Jython. However, I want to be able to pass two ODI variables to the java program. I do not seem able to do this, is it possible ?
I also tried calling the OS command from within a package - but again cannot get the OS command to pass the variables.
I would appreciate any help on this.

Thanks for your response.
I am still unable to do this.
Problem is the procedure is "Jython" and it does not know what the ODI variables are.
I basically have two variables source and target which need to be passed to a java procedure.
So I created two VARIABLES in ODI - source and target.
I then have a procedure with the command;
import os
import sys
cmd = "java ConvFile"
rc = os.system(cmd)
when this runs it does not pass the variables.
if you have
import os
import sys
cmd = "java ConvFile"+#Tax_Updates.SourceFile+#Tax_Updates.TargetFile
rc = os.system(cmd)
then it does not know what #Tax_Updates.SourceFile and #Tax_Updates.TargetFile are and so just passes them as strings.
If you still think it is possible or anyone esle knows can you elaborate a little on the solution.
Thanks
Nick

How to use windows environment variable "%appdata%" in TEXT_IO built-in

Hello Sir/Madam,
I'm currently using TEXT_IO built-in package to write data file user's "C" drive in Oracle Forms 6i on Windows XP OS. We are in the process of upgrading the OS to Windows7. This new version does not allow to write to "C" or "D" drive. I was wondering how I can use windows environment variable "%appdata%" in this built-in to write the data file to user's AppData folder?
I would appreciate your help.

Vani Sonti

You are obviously not familiar with the architecture of webforms. See here http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/forms/275632-133265.pdf
I guess you are running your forms locally, so the forms server and the client run on the very same machine. This won't be the case once you run in production, as you will have an application server and clients connecting to the server.
text_io, tool_env and all the forms built ins will be executed on the machine the forms runtime runs on, and in a 3 tier architecture this is the application server, not the client as the real client will run just a java applet which actually just does what the forms runtime on the server tells it to do (or passes client side events like mouse clicks to the forms runtime on the server).
A very simple explanation for the architecture would be that the whole GUI part has been ripped off the forms runtime and put into a java applet; the logic part (the old-fashioned forms runtime) where the whole Forms PL/SQL code is executed communicates with the GUI part (which is implemented as a java applet) via HTTP, so there is no need to have both running on the very same machine.
So if you are writing a file with text_io on c:\dummy.txt this file will be generated on the application server machine as it is executed where the forms runtime runs. If you read environment variables with tool_env.getvar you will get the environment variable from the application server machine.
If you need those variables from your application server then those built-in packages are what you need, but if you need the real client variables there is no way around java in webforms 6i. But the beans should be simple enough to have them written within no time ;)
cheers
