Inserting data from a view

Hi:
i'd like to create a view from 5 different tables and let the user insert data through a form based in that view. Does anybody know how to do this? when i try to insert data i get error saying it can't be done in non key preserved tables. Any idea how to do this?
Thanks.
Regards. Urko.

HI Urko,
There are some issues in forms created on views ,especially when the view is based on two tables and also when there are issues of "Key-Preserved Tables" so please wait till the point we are able to overcome these limitations.As the forms are based on the ROWIDs which are not there in these views there are some issues
in these cases.There are bugs filled for these issues but will take some time to actually fix them.
thanks

Update data from a view

Hi,
trying to update data from a view with:
- Company (table)
- Products (table)
In a form, the user wants to update
e.g: both products.product_name and Company.company_name.
Is there a way to update a view records built on 2 tables ?
Any idea will be really appreciated

Cannot insert data from local database into remote database using subquery

I have two oracle databases on different host.
One is version 8i in Host A and the other is 9i in Host B.
First, I try to create a dblink in 8i to 9i, but it fail.
Then, I create a dblink in 9i to 8i, it success.
I have already tried some select statement in 9i to view the table in 8i, which is success and that means the dblink is really work.
The sql statement is like
Select * from table1@hostA
Then I have tried running some INSERT statement in 9i, which is copy data from table 1 in 8i to table 2 in 8i, both tables are in 8i. The sql statement is like
Insert INTO table2@hostA(field1, field2)
select field1, field2
from table1@hostA
This also success.
Also, I have tried to use the following INSERT statement
Insert INTO table2@hostA(field1, field2) values ('XXX', 'XXX)
This also success.
However, when I try to insert data from table in 9i to table in 8i using the following INSERT statement, it failed.
Insert INTO table2@hostA(field1, field2)
select field1, field2
from table1
The statement can execute, but all the rows inserted with every field value equal to NULL. I have tried to run the select part, it can return the data. But when I run the INSERT statement above, the value inserted into table2 is all equal to NULL.
One more thing, I discover that the databases are using different NLS_CHARACTERSET
9i is AL32UTF8
8i is WE8ISO8859P1
Is this relevant to my problem?
Does anyone know the solution about this problem?
Thanks!!

How is the best way to do this ?How much are you planning to send?
You can use COPY command. Ensure that you have valid database link between two databases.
Available options are:
create - creates a new table. errors out if the destination table exists.
replace - drop the destination table and re-creates with data.
insert - inserts data if the destination table exists.
append– appends data into an existing table.
use set arraysize 5000 -The arraysize specifies the number of rows that SQL*Plus will retrieve from the database at one time.
copy from scott/tiger@ORCL to scott/tiger@ORCL92 create new_emp using select * from emp;

Is it possible to retrieve the data from maintainance view?

Hi experts,
Am facing one problem.
Is it possible to retrieve the data from Maintainance View ,If yes how?
IF it is not possible then Y?
While am trying to retrieve data from maintainance view it's showing message like
"it is not a database view or table".
Can u pls give me ans.
Thanks&Regards,
Arun.

Hi Arun,
It is not possible to retrieve the data from Maintenance view. Maintenance View is different and Database View is different.
Maintenance view : Maintenance view permits you to maintain the data of an application object together.The data is automatically distributed in the underlying database tables.
A standardized table maintenance transaction is provided (SM30), permitting you to maintain the data from the base tables of a maintenance view together.
In other words, Maintenance views enable a business-oriented approach to looking at data, while at the same time, making it possible to maintain the data involved. Data from several tables can be summarized in a maintenance view and maintained collectively via this view. That is, the data is entered via the view and then distributed to the underlying tables by the system.
Database View: Data about an application object is often distributed on several database tables. A database view provides an application-specific view on such distributed data.A database view is automatically created in the underlying database when it is activated.Database views implement an inner join.If the database view only contains a single table, the maintenance status can be used to determine if data records can also be inserted with the view. If the database view contains more than one table, you can only read the data.
Database views should be created if want to select logically connected data from different tables simultaneously. Selection with a database view is generally faster than access to individual tables. When selecting with views, you should also ensure that there are suitable indexes on the tables contained in the view.
Hope this helps.
Please reward if useful.

Srinivasa

Inserting data into relational views of object tables

I hope someone could help me to solve the following problem:
I would like to design an object-relational database in O8i. Unfortunatly the client-software (GIS) can only understand relational data (except the object type 'geometry'). So I created relational views on my object tables. But now it is not possible to insert data in those views. Do I have to create triggers on those views for inserting data ???
Nevertheless: Updating data in views makes no problems.
Thank you for reading this and I look foreward to hearing from you soon.
Christian Heil

Hi Mohammed,
I guess following is your requirement
List1 tile is attached to "BOList1". On button press you wanted the data to be persisted to Business object "BOList1History"
I assume that you have created "BOLIst1History" properly by associating a write Bdoc etc etc.
Write a method in Business object "BOList" called ZUpdateHistory. This new method should contain code for creating an instance of "BOLIST1History" and fill the property values as per your requirement. Call this method from the Button press event as follows
anchor.bo.ZUpdateHistory
Hope this helps

Reading data from maintainance view

hi ,
Can we read the data from maintainance view through select statement.

Hi again,
1. V_001K_K
   Since this view comprises
   more than 1 table
T001K
T001
It gives this error.
2. Maintenacnee views comprising only 1 table
   can be used in Select.
For eg. V_T001
V_T003 = Not allowed
PS:
3. The reason for this is :
   Any R/3 view having only one table,
   for such view, a physical view is created
   in the database.
   The records in it can be modified, inserted,deleted.
   (conditions apply)
   But for view having 2 or more tables,
   no physical view is there in the database.

amit m.

Is possible to represent data from a view in MapViewer?

I have tried to represent data from a view instead a table with the Java-Beans API but I couldn't beacause it doesn't represent any geometry referenced by the view. I think it should be implemented because is very common to use views. Are there any way to represent them in MapViewer?
Thanks.

Like a table, you also need to register the view in spatial metadata (user_sdo_geom_metadata). Did you register the view and its spatial column there?

Why do we get the data from a view to a report.

hi
why do we get the data from a view to a report. is it possible to get the data from a view in all the cases?

hi Jyotssna,
Suppose you are planning to get the data from multiple tables then you got to specify seveal condtions and make use of joins which results in poor performance in fetching the data . In order to improve the performance we make use of views where the conditions of different tables are defined and the data is fetched accordingly.

Can we get data from business views in CR 2008/XI?

Hi All,
Can we get data from business views in CR 2008/XI?
If its possible, pls let us know how to get connect with Business View in both of these versions and what is the tool that we have to use to create Business Views.
Thank you,
Krishna Pingali

Hi Krishna,
Crystal Reports/BusinessObjects Enterprise ( BOE ) Business Views can only be created using the BV build which comes with BOE and installed using the Work Station installer for BOE. for both XI and 2008.
You cannot mix these two versions on the same PC not can one talk to the other, the BV designer must match the same version as BOE. XI ( version 11.0 ) is no longer available but if you mean XI R2 ( version 11.5 ) then it still is.
It's not completely clear which Business View you are referring to? BOE has a Business View Designer so not sure if this is just a naming problem or not? If you are referring to the BOE Business View Designer then the above is true. If your reference is about some other BV designer or data source then you need to clarify.
Contact our Sales department for pricing and availability.
Thank you

How Can i Read data From Maintainance View

Hi raj,
maintainance view is a nothing but combinations of table using join on some fields..
see the relation ship between the joins..
if you want to write selection query ..go to se11 -->enter view name >and open tab>
Table/Join conditions--> see the table's involved and join conditons between tables.
and write the select query same as like the Table/Join conditions in se11..now you can acheive the
table maintainance fields..

Trying to query data from a view - ORA-01882 and ORA-02063 Errors
