Loading data using send function in Excel to aggregate storage cube

Hi there
just got version 9.3.1. installed. Can finally load to aggregate storage database using excel essbase send. however, very slow, especially when loading many lines of data. Block storage much much faster. Is there any way you can speed up loading to aggreagate storage data base? Or is this an architectural issue and therefore not much can be done?

As far as I know, it is an architectural issue.. Further, I would expect it to slow down even further if you have numerous people writing back simultaneously because, as I understand it, they are throttling the update process on the server side so a single user is actually 'writing' at a time. At least this is better than earlier versions where other users couldn't even do a read when the database was being loaded; I believe that restriction has been lifted as part of the 'trickle-feed' support (although I haven't tested it)..

Can we load data using .xls in user define format(without using default template)

Hi All,
I'm new bee to FDM. Part of HFM support i use FDM to load flatfile data. Just has a bit more knowledge than end user.
Requirement is that i need to load data from MS excel to Planning application via FDM.
Previously application is in Excel(Macro driven) and upstream(data) is also in Excel(multi tab).
As of my knowledge data can be loaded from .csv file(Excel save as CSV) with single tab.
Could you please let me know possibilities to load data from .xls(.xlsx) to FDM.
Thanks in advance.

If you want to load data using Excel, utilising FDM's out-of-the-box functionality you will have to use one of the templates supplied i.e. Excel Trial Balance or Excel Multi-load template.

Loading Data Using Outline Load Utility - Error

Trying to load some data using Outline Load Utility. I followed the Oracle documentation on this and Under the Administration -> Manage Data Load area I defined Accounts as data load dimension, and period as driver dimension. I then added Jan - Feb as driver members. I wanted to load data for Jan. My data header looks like this:
Accounts,Jan,Point-of-View,Data Load Cube Name
acct1, 768, "2010, Ver1, Actuals, entity1, etc" Plan1
The command i typed is this:
C:\Oracle\Middleware\user_projects\epmsystem1\Planning\planning1>outlineload /A:Plan1 /U:Admin /M /I:C:\MockData2.txt /D:Accounts /L:C:\dataload.log /X:c:\dataload.exc
I get the following errors:
[Mon Nov 22 11:03:02 CST 2010] Unrecognized column header value "Jan".
[Mon Nov 22 11:03:02 CST 2010] Unrecognized column header value "Point-of-View".

This is version 11.1.2. What am I doing wrong here? I also find it interesting that the command for data load and metadata load is the same as per oracle docs. I guess Planning knows if we're trying to load data or metadata based on the CSV file header?

I don't usually bother with loading data using the outline load utility but as a test on 11.1.2 using the planning sample application I gave it a quick go.
In planning, went to Administration > Data Load Settings > Picked Account as the data load dimension, Period as the driver dimension and selected Jan as a member
I created a file :-
Account,Jan,Point-of-View,Data Load Cube Name
TestMember,100,"Local,E05,Actual,NoSegment,Working,FY11",Consol
And used the following command line from the directory with the planning utilities
OutlineLoad /A:plansamp /U:admin /M /N /I:F:/temp/dload.csv /D:Account /L:F:/temp/outlineLoad.log /X:F:/temp/outlineLoad.exc
The log produced :-
[Tue Nov 23 10:02:01 GMT 2010]Successfully located and opened input file "F:\temp\dload.csv".

Need Help..!! Loading Data Using Outline Load Utility - No Data

Hi All,
I've tried to load data using Outline Load Utility but the data is not loaded into my Essbase.
Here are the step what I've done :
1. In planning, Administration > Data Load Settings
- Entity as the data load dimension,
- Account as the driver dimension and selected Rental, test_desc as the member
2. The .csv file
Entity, Rental, test_desc, Point-of-View,Data Load Cube Name
TLT, 100, 100, "FY11,Plan,Working,No Product,No Condition Type,No Vehicle Type,No Term Period,No Term,No Movement, Local, Apr", Retail
3. Run the Outline Load through cmd
E:\Oracle\Middleware\user_projects\epmsystem1\Planning\planning1>OutlineLoad /A:PLNDEV /U:xyz /M /N /I:E:/testload.csv /D:Entity /L:E:/OutlineLogs /X:E:/outlineLoad.exc
and below it the OutlineLogs :

No data rejected there, but when I tried to retrieve the data from my Planning Form or Essbase Add-In, there is no data.
Do I miss something in my step above..??
Please advise.
Thanks.

VieN

Hi John,
thanks for reply..
I'm not check the essbase log yet..
From the OutlineLogs (Planning Outline load process finished (with no data load as specified (/N)). 1 data record was read, 1 data record was processed, 1 was accepted, 0 were rejected.), it doesn't mean the data successfully loaded, isn't it...??
Thanks.

Loading Data Using Process Chains

Hi All,
we are having 3 layers for loading data using DB connect i.e 1st and 2nd layers we are having DSO's and the 3rd layer is cube.we are following the following updates for the 3 layers
1st layer- full
2nd layer - delta
3rd -delta
is there any possibilites of getting duplicates in the cube and if so how to solve this one using process chains
regards,

Hi,
Your dataflow looks ok.
Hopefully you are using "Std DSO", there is no chances of getting duplicate records.
But in case...
If you are using "WO DSO" with check box "Do not check Uniqueness of records"
In this situation you will get the duplicate... as "WO DSO" with this property will simply keep on adding adding the records.
Thanks

Problem Loading Data Using UTL File Package

Hi Friends..
My Database is Oracle 10gR2 and OS is WINDOWS.
I have one excel file which contains 10 fields.
My requirement is to Load data from 1 excel file into two tables..
tables are master and detail
Below are sample data and structure for it..
Excel file format
TEST.CSV
Srno Empno Empname City Challanno challandate Materialno materialname Materialqty Materialcost
1     232 raj      Hyderabad      533     20/04/2010     11     abc      34     10
1     232 raj      Hyderabad      533     20/04/2010     12      aa      4     110
1     231 ram Baroda      533     20/04/2010     14      abcd      33     210
Master table
empno
Challanno
challandate
Detail table
empno
materialno
materialname
materialqty
materialcost
My question is ..While reading 1st line if its empno is new then record is entered in master table for the first time and remaining records of same empno is entered in detail table.. now when empno no changes then new entry is done in master table and associated records are entered in detail table..
So in this case for empno 232 master table would have
232,533,20/4/2010
Detail table for empno 232 would now have 2 records..
232,11,abc,34,10
232,12,aa,4,110
I am using UTL_FILE package to achieve this as the file is on server...
Kindly please help me to proceed in this..
Really appreciate your help...

I've been computer programming for 28 years (jeez has it really been that long :D ), so I wouldn't be telling you that you're doing it the wrong way without knowing that there are better ways to do it and you're asking for the wrong way. Speak with your boss, tell him that you've been recommended to use External Tables instead because they're the right way to read such data and UTL_FILE is not the right approach.

Error while loading data using SQL*Loader

Hi All,
I am now in process of loading data from MS SQL to Oracle Database.
I am getting the data in excel format and i will convert them into csv.
Upto converting everything is working fine.
In MS SQL, table columns are case sensitive.
So i created those tables in oracle db as same.
There is one column "MaxNumber" which is of type float(49).
The column is case sensitive.
in the control file first i given as
"MaxNumber" "TO_NUMBER(:MaxNumber,'99,999.99')"
After executing the SQL*Loader i am getting the error
SQL*Loader-466: Column MAXNUMBER does not exist in table TABLEONE.
I changed the control file entry as
"MaxNumber" "TO_NUMBER(:"MaxNumber",'99,999.99')"
After the execution i got the error
SQL*Loader-350: Syntax error at line 13.
Expecting "," or ")", found "MaxDiscount".
"MaxNumber" "TO_NUMBER(:"MaxNumber",'99,999.99')"
Please Guide me in this issue.
Regards
Salih KM

What I'm saying is, verify the column name. Dont post if not possible.
Example follows, with one table intentionally "hidden".
SQL> create table "tEsT" ("MaxNumber" float, "MaxnumbeR" number);
SQL> select table_name,column_name from user_tab_columns where table_name like 't%';
TABLE_NAME                     COLUMN_NAME
tEsT                           MaxNumber
tEsT                           MaxnumbeR
teST                           iD
teST                           MaxNumberHth,

How to load data using two maps for the same source file in Import Manager

Hi,
I am trying to load the source data to MDM using two map files, since one map is too big (creating memory error).
However the first map data able to see after loading (SAP data) but when loading second map(nonSAP data) using the remote key to match the previously loaded SAP key ,even if MDM is processing the data it is not reflecting in data manager.
Is there any reason for this.
Appreciate your suggestion and tips on this.
regrds,
Reo

Hi Reo,
As ur requirement seems,In the second pass perform recording matching by select default import action as "<b>update null fields only"</b> for those data records which are matching and "<b>create</b> " for those data records which are not matching with previous data records from SAP system.
If you define "update null fields only", then only the key of the new record from NON SAP will get appended to the existing record. And if you select "create" then it will create new records and will apply NON SAP key on it.
Please check the remote key values using data manager.Key is applied in the records or not.
Remember that import maps are client specific. Remote key comprises of both key and client system.So be sure that you are connecting to two different client systems.
I have tried this and this is working fine on my system.
Thanks,
Shiv Prashant Dixit

Problem with loading data using SQL LOADER

can anyone tell me what is problem in above file why data is not loaded in table??

I don't find any problem if you invoke the SQLLDR using the below command(and if you are certain that the control file resides in the C: drive).
sqlldr scott/tiger@genuat control =c:\emp.ctl
If this doesn't work then invoke the SQLLDR from the C: prompt itself.
sqlldr scott/tiger@genuat control=emp.ctl
It would locate the control file and check whether the sqlldr completes successfully?
