Issue while writing a query in table type select.in the physical layer

Hi gurus,
I am actually trying to create a table using select in the physical layer..... i acutally am not aware what it is called but its when i click a table in the physical layer i have an option table type and i chose select which allows me type my query..the query is
Select
coln name(which is a lengthly list of conversion) AS column_name
From Table name.
when i view the data rom the physical layer everthing seems to be fine. but when i try to view the data in the frnt end it gives me an error maximum length is too long than 128....
i am aware of this issue the sql server allows only column of length 128..but none of my column length is greater than 128..
Could you please help me in this
Many thanks in advance

hi veeravalli ,

Thanks in advance....

How to see the tables which are in the physical layer of SampleAppLite rpd

Hi Everyone,
I am new to OBIEE and I installed OBI Apps with Oracle 11g in my laptop. I tried to create reports using the OracleBIAnalyticsApps rpd. How can I know from which schema the tables are coming in the physical layer of the repository so that I can create a connection pool to the database. I got the default SampleAppLite rpd when I install the OBIEE but I am unable to see those tables in the database schema which are used in the SampleAppLite physical layer. Can anyone tell me how can I see the tables in the database which I see in the rpd. Actually my question may be wrong as I am new to this field, so please let me know if this is a wrong question. As I unable to express my question correctly. Thanks.

For the OracleBIAnalyticsApps rpd - the tables are under "Catalog" then "dbo" in database "Oracle Data Warehouse" in the physical layer. The RPD comes out of the box with the required connection pools - you dont need to create any. The connection pools "Oracle Data Warehouse Repository Initblocks Connection Pool" and "Oracle Data Warehouse Connection Pool" in "Oracle Data Warehouse" read the data from the business analytics warehouse that you created in a schema name of your choosing with the DAC. All you need to do is edit the user name and password and the data source name with a connect string - which is the local net service name to your database for default call interface OCI 10g/11g assuming you used an Oracle database for your warehouse. One way to test the connection pool is to right click any table/alias then "Update Row Count".
BTW Using the Admin Tool open the OracleBIAnalyticsApps rpd then do "Tools" then "Utilities" then "Repository Documentation" then "Execute". This will create a spreadsheet showing you all the mappings from the presentation to business to physical layers.

Proble creating Table Type = Select in 10gR3

In a very simple example case I have a customers table that I am trying to create a Table Type of Select in the physical layer.
Using the Admin tool I create "New Physical tabe" and enter select * from customer where region = 'East'
If I "Update All Row Counts" it now shows 56 rows - which is correct
If I try and "view data" I get an error
[nQSError: 17001] Oracle Error Code: 936, messgae: ORA-00936: missing expression at OCI cal OCIStmtExecute.
[nQSError: 17010] SQL Statement preparation failed.
If I deploy the view I can go to sqlplus and select from it.
I have tried qualifying table name and selecting specific columns - I know its not a permission issue and presumably the fact that it counted rows correctly confirms it must have generated correct SQL.
I'm puzzled - what am I missing here?

This is standard behavior..Update Row Count work fine since SELECT COUNT (*) FROM (select * from customer where region = 'East') is a valid SQL, View Data doesn't work since your columns aren't named, so OBI cant select col1, col2, etc.
Hope this explains.

Physical tables - table type 'select' query

Hello,
I've been playing around with the migrateEUL tool and have noticed that all Discoverer custom folders get translated into Physical Tables with a table type of 'select' as I would expect.
What I'm not sure about is the location in which it places these objects.
With a database data source called 'Video Store Tutorial' at the top level, a Physical Schema of VIDEO5 gets created. Inside this Physical Schema are the regular tables. The 'select' tables are placed as siblings to the Physical Select folder, and not as a child object like the rest of the tables.
Can someone please comment on what is the best practice regarding locating these 'select' tables (as children of the Physical Schema or children of the Database).
If I create a new table of table type 'select' I can only do so by right clicking the Physical Schema and choosing 'New Physical Table', thereby making this new object a child of the schema. I cannot make it a child of the database directly - although I can drag the object out from within the Physical Schema and drop it on the database name, to make it so.
Cheers,
John

Hi John,
There not really an absolut truth for this. Normaly you would make 'single schema' view siblings of there physical schema and 'multi schema' views direct siblings. It doesn't influence performances if they use the same connection pool. It's just a matter of taste.

Whats is table type ? whats the use of it in abap?

hi,
i am ahmed abap fresher,
i want to know what is table type and whats the use of it. at what point/situation we utilize this table type.

Hi Ahmed ,
Table is apart of data dictionary.
Table is a sort of container where we store data.
For eg. you want to store customer record in the database.Now you will store that customer record against specific fields of the applicable table.
You can create or see table by means of transaction code se11.
There are 3 typesof tables available in SAP ABAP:
1. Transparent table
2. Pool table
3. Cluster table.
Transparent Table:
A physical table definition in the database for the table definition which is stored in the ABAP Dictionary for transparent tables when the
table is activated. The table definition is translated from the ABAP
Dictionary to a definition of the particular database.
Pooled table:
Pooled tables can be used to store control data (e.g. screen sequences,
program parameters or temporary data). Several pooled tables can be
combined to form a table pool. The table pool corresponds to a physical
table on the database in which all the records of the allocated pooled
tables are stored.
Cluster table:
Cluster tables contain continuous text, for example, documentation.
Several cluster tables can be combined to form a table cluster. Several
logical lines of different tables are combined to form a physical record
in this table type. This permits object-by-object storage or
object-by-object access. In order to combine tables in clusters, at
least parts of the keys must agree. Several cluster tables are stored in
one corresponding table on the database.
See the documetation at:

Joining tables across databases in OBIEE Physical Layer

I was facing this problem of joining tables across databases in Physical layer of OBIEE admin tool.
I had a requirement to combine two tables from 2 different databases A and B respectively. I had created one database object (OBIEE Object) in the physical layer and I had created two connection pools under that pointing to the required databases. I was able to view the data (right click on the table object --> popup menu option "View Data" ) though I had to go through the "Select connection Pool" window and select the required connection pool. I was able to join the tables and was able to complete the star schema in BMM and bring them up to the presentation layer. Conistency check was also successful. Everything went fine so far.
But when I started building the report, I started getting error whenever I chose the table which was supposed to be queried by using the second connection pool. The error message was something like "table or view does not exist at OCI call OCIStmtExecute". I assume that this was happening because the systm was not able to understand which connection pool to choose (because there were two pools defined under one database object) and by default the server was choosing the first one. If anybody is having a different opinion or definite information about this, kindly update with your reply.
I could resolve this problem after creating a separate database object with a separate connection pool defined under it, which points to the second database. Imported the required table under this database object. (Infact it was reverse. When I re-imported the table, OBIEE Admin tool, by default created its own database object and the connection pool separately for the imported table).
Once this was done then I went ahead as usual by joining the tables across these two different database objects and modelling was already done (ofcourse with a little more tweaking since the mapping had to be redone between BMM and Physical layers). Now I could build the report in the reporting layer without encountering any error.
Appreciate and welcome any further additions/updations/corrections regarding this issue(?).

Creating Physical table as select in the .rpd

When creating a physical table as a select we can write the SQL statement like SELECT A,B,C... FROM xxx etc.
Trouble is that we then have to go the tab COLUMNS and define each column... This is kind of very error prone and lots of work...
Pls. is there a way to somehow leverage the columns alreaday defined in the PHYSICAL TABLE ?
Txs. for any help.
Antonio

Hi Antonio,
You didnt catch me..
1)Open actual rpd and create a view using select query, do not add any columns.
2) Create view in dev db.
3) Create a new rpd file import the view into the physical layer.
4) Select columns from step3 and copy
5) paste in the actual rpd on selecting the 'select query' object
you are good to go.
This wold help you with all columns and their datatypes.
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
SVee

Duplicate table and Alias table in the physical layer

Hi,
I want a clear information regarding the duplicate tables in the physical layer of the rpd.
I mean what is the purpose of the duplicate tables in the physical layer.........
thanks,
chinna.

what do you mean by duplicate of physical table? is it Alias table?
if then,
-> aliases are created to break the circular joins (which are not supported by obiee)
-> and, as per apps standards no operation can be done on base tables which are imported directly to physical layer. Only aliases are joined and will be used in BMM layer
-> useful to re-use the table more than one time , best example: W_DAY_D in apps rpd

Issue while accessing a SQL Server table over OTG

Hi,
I have been learning oracle for about 1.5 years and am just starting to learn some OTG pieces. I am wondering about an issue. The issue is:
"We need help with an issue we are having while accessing a SQL Server table over OTG. We are getting the following error message in Oracle :
ORA-28500: connection from ORACLE to a non-Oracle system returned this message:
[Oracle][ODBC SQL Server Driver]Unicode conversion failed {HY000}
The column it is failing on is "-----------" in the view --------------- in the SQL Server database pointed to by the Oracle DB Link ------------------- thats created in the Oracle instances ---- and -----.
This was working before, but is now failing, we suspect its due to new multi-byte data being added to the base table in the above column."
I took out the details and added ---- instead. I am wondering your guys thoughts on fixing this issue and helping me learn along the way. Thanks

Hi Mike,
Thanks for the response, here are the details:
1. What is the character set of the Oracle RDBMS being used. What is returned by -
select * from nls_database_parameters;
NLS_CHARACTERSET
AL32UTF8
NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET
UTF8
We get SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_C1_AS and 1252 as Collation Property and Code Page
The datatype of the column in question in SQL Server is nvarchar(100).
When I do a describe on the SQL Server view ( desc CK_DATA_FOR_OPL@------- ), I get the error below;
ERROR: object CK_DATA_FOR_OPL does not exist
Select * from CK_DATA_FOR_OPL@------ where rownum =1 does get me a row.
create table tmp_tab as
Select * from CK_DATA_FOR_OPL@----- where rownum =1;
desc tmp_tab shows the datatype of the said column in the table created in Oracle as NVARCHAR2(150).
Not sure why a column defined with size 100 in SQL Server should come across as 150 when seen over OTG. We see something similar in DB2 tables we access over OTG as well.

Hi Juhi,
I am facing the same issue. BW query has three input parameters i.e. Year, Month and Profit center.
I can create the service when query has only one input parameter i.e. Year. But when query has more parameter other than year, I cant create the service. Getting an error 'Association AZPROFIT_CToListOfValues: referential constraint property not found in entity ZMFIGL_ZFIGL_COST_FINAL_FIORIParameter.'
As per your last reply, if we have multiple input parameters then it does not allow to create the service from BEX query. How did you resolve this issue. Please provide some details.
Thanks in Advance.

Issues while Populating data in Tree Table..

Hi,
I am using Tree Table component to populate Hierarchical data in it.
I create data controls based on web service proxy.
While creating Tree table i selected the Display Attributes to show in Tree table.
Now i am struck with two requirements:
1. At run time when i see the data in Tree table i can see that Display Attributes for mixed.
For Example:
Andrew> Phone
Work 123456789 // Here we can notice that, two attributes data displayed with on space gap. Phone Type and Phone number
Home 987654321 need to show some separation character between thenm something like : Work - 123456789 Is it possible?
> Email
work [email protected]
2. I need to show popup on click on Root node of the Tree table. If we take the above example, i want to perform a click event on "Andrew" so that i can popup and show some details.
But when i try to insert a command link in Node. Parent & Child nodes are populated with command link. How to have command link only for parent Node.
Code i am using:
*<af:treeTable value="#{bindings.contact.treeModel}" var="node"*
*selectionListener="#{bindings.contact.treeModel.makeCurrent}"*
*rowSelection="single"*
*binding="#{backingBeanScope.EditValidationDetails.tt1}"*
*id="tt1" width="920">*
*<f:facet name="nodeStamp">*
*<af:column id="c1" width="800" filterable="true">*
*<af:commandLink text="#{node}" id="cl2"/>*
