Load Multiple Table using SQLLDR

Hi,
We are trying to Load Multiple Table using SQLLDR in same loading session.
Here's a snippet of our script:
LOAD DATA INFILE '/u07/dd/yyyy_mm_dd.dat'
append INTO TABLE table1
WHEN STORE_NO != ' '
STORE_NO position(1:5) ,
TR_DATE position(6:27) DATE "mm/dd/yy
truncate INTO TABLE table2
WHEN STORE_NO != ' '
STORE_NO position(1:5) ,
TR_DATE position(6:27) DATE "mm/dd/yy
Now upon execution this gives an error saying truncate shouldn't be present before 2nd INTO Clause. The script runs fine if we do same operation say Append / Replcae / Truncate on both tables. My Question here is can we have SQLLDR perform two diff operations (Append & Truncate in our case) in one session?
Thanks
Chinmay

No.
did you read the syntax diagram and the paragraph below:
"When you are loading a table, you can use the INTO TABLE clause to specify a table-specific loading method (INSERT, APPEND, REPLACE, or TRUNCATE) that applies only to that table. That method overrides the global table-loading method. The global table-loading method is INSERT, by default, unless a different method was specified before any INTO TABLE clauses."

  • SQL Loader to Load Multiple Tables from Multiple Files

    Which operating system? ("Command Prompt" sounds like Windows)
    UNIX/Linux: a shell script with multiple calls to sqlldr run in the background with "&" (and possibly nohup)
    Windows: A batch file using "start" to launch multiple copies of sqlldr.

  • Loading multiple tables with SQL Loader

    Hi,
    I want to load multiple tables from a single data file using SQL Loader.
    Here's the basic idea of what I want. Let's say I have two tables, table =T1
    and table T2:
    SQL> desc T1;
    COL1 VARCHAR2(20)
    COL2 VARCHAR2(20)
    SQL> desc T2;
    COL1 VARCHAR2(20)
    COL2 VARCHAR2(20)
    COL3 VARCHAR2(20)
    My data file, test.dat, looks like this:
    AAA|KBA
    BBR|BBCC|CCC
    NNN|BBBN|NNA
    I want to load the first record into T1, and the second and third record load into T2. How do I set up my control file to do that?
    Thank!

    Tough Job
    LOAD DATA
    truncate
    INTO table t1
    when col3 = 'dummy'
    FIELDS TERMINATED BY '|'
    TRAILING NULLCOLS
    (col1,col2,col3 filler char nullif col3='dummy')
    INTO table t2
    when col3 != 'dummy'
    FIELDS TERMINATED BY '|'
    (col1,col2,col3 nullif col3='dummy')
    This will load t2 tbl but not t1.
    T1 Filler col3 is not accepting nullif. Its diff to compare columns have null using when condition. If i find something i will let you know.
    Can you seperate records into 2 file. Will a UNIX command work for you which will seperate 2col and 3col record types for you. and then you can execute 2 controlfiles on it.

  • Adding data to multiple tables using one form in Access 2010?

    Hi All,
    I have a access database with two tables and I want to create a single form to enter data into that tables.
    How to adding data to multiple tables using one form in Access 2010?
    I don't have to much knowledge of access database?
    Please help me
    Thanks
    Balaji

    You really don't enter identical data into 2 tables.  You enter dat into one single table, and then you have an unique identifier that maps to another table (you have a unique relationship between two tables). 
    Maybe you need to read this.
    http://office.microsoft.com/en-001/access-help/database-design-basics-HA001224247.aspx
    Think about it this way...  What is you update data in 2 tables, and then the data in one of those tables changes, but the data in the other table does NOT change.  WHOOPS!!  Now, you've got a BIG problem.  For instance, you have a customer
    named Bill Gates.  In one Table you update Bill's address to 1835 73rd Ave NE, Medina, WA 98039 and in the other table you accidentally update Bill's address to 183 73rd Ave NE, Medina, WA 98039.  Now you have 2 addresses for Bill.  Why would
    you want that???  Which is right?  No one knows.  If you have one address, you just have to update one address and if there is a mistake, you just have to update one address, but you don't have to waste time trying to figure out which is right
    and which is wong...and then update the one that is wrong.
    Post back with specific questions.
    Knowledge is the only thing that I can give you, and still retain, and we are both better off for it.

  • Load multiple files using the same data load location

    has anybody tried loading multiple files using the same load locations. I need to do this as the data in these multiple files will need to be exported from FDM as a single export file. the problem i am facing is more user related. since these files will be received at different points of time, users will need a way to tell them what has been loaded and what is yet to be loaded.
    is it possible to throw a window on the web broser with OK and Cancel buttons from an event script?
    any pointers to possible solutions will be helpful

    was able to resolve this. the implementation method is as follows
    take a back up of previously imported data in the befcleardata event script. then in the beffileimport event append the data to the import file. there are many other intricacies but this is the broad implementation logic. it allowed my users to load multiple files without worrying about append or replace import type choices

  • ORA-00054 error when loading Oracle table using Data Services

    Hello,
    we are facing ORA-00054 error when loading Oracle table using BO Data services
    (Oracle 10g database, BODS Xi 3.2 SP3)
    Test Job performs
    1- truncate table
    2- load table (tested in standard and bulk load modes)
    Scenario when issue happens is:
    1- Run loading Job
    2- Job end in error for any Oracle data base error
    3- When re-running the same Job, Job fails with following error
         ORA-00054: resource busy and acquire with NOWAIT specified
    It seems after first failure, Oracle session for loading the table stays active and locks the table.
    To be able to rerun the Job, we are forced need to kill Oracle session manually to be able to run the Job again.
    Expected behaviour would be : on error rollback modifications made on table and BODS stops Oracle session in a clean way.
    Can somebody tell me / or point me to any BODS best practice about Oracle error handling to prevent such case?
    Thanks in advance
    Paul-Marie

    the ora-0054 can occure depending how the job failed before. If this occures you will need the DBA to release the lock on the table in question
    Or
           AL_Engine.exe on The server it creates the Lock. Need to Kill Them. Or stop it..
    This Problem Occurs when we select The Bulkloading Option in orclae  We also faced the same issue,Our admin has Killed the session. Then everything alright.

  • Load Multiple Images using link in Crystal Report

    Hi Guys,
    I am currently in need of developing a new requirement for our company's client. We have to load multiple images using just link in Crystal Report. Let's say that the images are stored in a folder (e.g., C:\Datafolder\Images\) and i have to fetch two images to show in crystal report (say, C:\Datafolder\Images\imageval1 and C:\Datafolder\Images\imageval2). These are actually dynamically created and therefore the number of images are not known and so i have to iterate through the list of image links.
    Is it possible using merely crystal report and how?. Please take note that we're also using C# in developing our software applications.
    Thanks and best regards.
    ---CHITO--

    Hi Chito,
    You cannot load multiple images dynamically. Using the 'graphic location' formula for the OLE Object, you can only point to a location that can load one image.
    For the second image, you'll need to manually insert another OLE Object and point the formula to the next image's location.
    You can try posting to the SAP Crystal Reports, version for Visual Studio space to find out whether this can be done using CR SDK.

    Pl post OS and database details
    You will need to split up the datafile in order to load into separate tables. The process is documented

    This is what's in the control file:
    LOAD DATA
    INFILE *
    INTO TABLE purchaseOrder TRUNCATE
    xmltype(xmldata)
    FIELDS
    xmldata LOBFILE (CONSTANT ipo.xml)
    BEGINDATA
    0
    The load fails with:
    Record 1: Rejected - Error on table PURCHASEORDER.
    ORA-22805: cannot insert NULL object into object tables or nested tables
    Another question I have is, how do we know how many records (0's) to specify in the control file? In this case there's only one but when real files are used we won't know how many are in the file.
    Thanks for your help!

    The concept was "Don't use SQL*Loader to parse XML".
    You can use SQL*Loader to load an entire XML document into the DB. That is fine. You can do the same via BFILENAME to read in files from disk as well.
    If you want to parse XML, do that from within Oracle via PL/SQL and/or SQL. The solution depends upon your version of Oracle and what is good enough for you in terms of performance.
    So the basics are
    a) How am I getting the information?
    b) How am I getting in into Oracle?
    c) How do I want to parse it?
    As I see the schema, it only allows for one ipo:purchaseOrder node in the document, since that is the root node. If you have multiple in the incoming file, you no longer have valid XML, both per the schema and because you have no single root node. You have an XML fragment, which must be treated different.
    Just trying to understand the question since I now realize it does not agree with what the schema in your initial example shows.

  • Load Multiple Tables (schemas) from same XML file

    Hi,
    This is first time i am working XML files.
    I have one XML file with two tables (schema). I need to load those two tables into two different Target tables.
    This is the startegy to choose tables.
    <Entry type="full"> --Table 1
    <Entry type="short">--Table 2
    I am try to find the tables like this using condition split (Type == "Full" ) but tables are not splitting as expected, is am i going with wrong approach??
    Can anyone suggest me to process multiples tables from same XML file??

    Hi Naveen,
    After the issue in my environment, the package works well that the data in the XML file load to two destination tables based on one column values. The screenshot is for your reference:
    To troubleshoot this issue, could you please check the values in the type column? Verify the values have exactly the same characters, case sensitivity. It seems that you haven’t write correct values in the Conditional Split Transformation. They should be like

  • How to update multiple tables using results from query

    I'm a bit rusty on this stuff and am hoping for some help.
    Table 1 is:
    location_id, location_name
    Table 2 is
    location_id, employee_id and misc. other columns
    Then there are multiple tables with associated data, keys being location_id and employee_id.
    There are no established relationships.
    Trying to come up with a process to change location_id for all employees assigned to a particular location.
    It seems to me that the basics are
    select employee_id from Table2 where location_id='xxxxxx'
    Then take each employee_id returned and change their location_id in each of the other tables
    I'm not clear on how to load the returned employee id's as variables and then loop through them.
    Thanks

    Thanks for the welcome. I'll read up on the rules now.
    Below is the DDL for a couple of the tables.
    Version = 11g
    I would query the users table for all users with a certain site_id and then use them to update the site_id in the users table (and other tables)

         "PASSWORD" VARCHAR2(50 BYTE),

         "LAST_NAME" VARCHAR2(50 BYTE),
         "SITE_ID" VARCHAR2(5 BYTE),
         "ROLE_ID" VARCHAR2(1 BYTE)

  • Best Practice to load multiple Tables

    Hi,
    Am trying to load around 9-10 tables in sql server.all these belong to a single project.
    table loads are just select * into destination table,using some joins.
    Is it good to have 1 stored proc to load all these tables or individual stored procs to load.
    All these tables are independent to each other.
    Appreciate your help !
