hi guys,
my heirarchy is different from the one in the blog. should i mark all the infoobjects in all nodes as hierarchy relavant or only the bottom one? i also brought the 0hier_node from the business content. i dont know what other valid infoobject is missing ......plz help........

I have to load hierarchy from flat file

Hi Guys,
I build a balance sheet Report,which is showing the report based on financial statement item(0glaccext)hierarchy.
But previously client is maintaining some third party system,so client wants to load all the GL accounts in to BW.
When i load the GL accounts in to BW using flat file,in report it is not showing based on hierarchy for the flat file GL accounts.
So i need to load the hierarchy also for those GL accounts,how to load the GL accounts using flat file to maintain the hierarchy based on Assets,liabilities etc...

Error when loading hierarchy from Flat-file

I am trying to get the Fund Group-Fund Fund Center Hierarchy .
Ie : Fund Group
             Fund 1
                    Fund center 1
                    Fund Center 2
       Fund Group 2
I am trying to load it from a flat file.
I got the Flat file structure for the hierarchy.
& I am trying to load it to the Funds Group master data.
I am stuck at IPak.
In the Processing Tab,
Only the option Only PSA is enabled.
My Doubt is :
Why are the other options disabled: could it be because I might have missed something in my previous steps ???
Or
if I load till PSA , I dont know how to load it to the Master data from there -as when I schedule it : I can see it in PSA but then it stays in Yellow & then turns to Red.

Hi,
Go to monitor(RSMO)then verify on detail tab for PSA Load. Hope this help you,
Thanks

Hi,
This is Thilak. For loading Data To hierarchy from flat file u should follow the below steps.
1. Create info objects as per ur hierarchy structure. i.e., ZH_CNO( for cno), ZH_SRGN (for region) .
2. find the highest node level info object. i.e., ZH_CNO.
3. go to that info object (highest node level info object) and select "with hierarchy" chk box.
4. click on " MAINTAIN HIERARCHY" button and move the external characteristics info objects to rt. side pannel.i.e., ZH_SRGN.
(Hint : other than first and last node level characteristics)
5. Activate the info object.
6. Create the info source (ZH_IS) of " DIrect Update Type".
7. Assign Hierarchy Data source( ZH_CNO_HIER) to that info source.
8. Schedule the info package to load the hierachy data from flat file.
Note: If u have any doubts regarding flat file format and hierarchy structure plz call to +91 9600015640 or mail to thilak.oggn@gmail. bcz i am unable to draw that hier strtr ana table.

Loading data from flat file...

Hello,
I am actually experiencing a problem where I cant load data from a flat file into a table. I have actually reverse engineered the flat file into ODI. But the thing is I don't know how to load the data that is reversed into a RDBMS table. Added, I don't know how create this RDBMS table form within ODI to be reflected on the DB. Added, don't know how to load the data from the flat file onto this table without having to add the columns in order to map between the flat file and the table.
In conclusion, I need to know how to create an RDBMS table from within ODI on the database. And how to automatically map the flat file to the DB table and load the data into the DB table.
Regards,
Hossam

Hi Hossam,
We can used ODI procedure to create table in the DB.
Make sure you keep the column name in the table name same as the column name in FLAT FILE so that it can automatically map the column.
and regarding Loading data from FLAT File i.e. our source table is FLAT FILE till ODI 10.1.3.4 we need to manually insert the datastore since the file system cannot be reversed.
Please let me know Hossam if i can assis you further.
Thanks and Regards,
Andy

Loading data from flat file to ODS

Hi Experts,
I have a developed a report, in which Flat file is the datasource and data target as DSO.
Here I have one requriment to Increatment the counter value in TVARVC table after every load compleate.
Can this be done thru Process chain? I belive this can be done thru process chain by creating variable.
If this can be done thru Process chains can any experts send me sample examples code.
Thanks In Advance.
Sreedhar.M

Hi sridhar,
     We have a similar scenario in which we will load data from flat file to datasource the file name (x_20081010.dat) of such format being fetched from the low value of the TVARVC table ... once successfully executed we had program to increment the value of low which increments by one day adn the next day the file with that will be placed in the application server...
    U can create a abap program varaint and attribute for that and u can achieve that.... this is sample code which searches for the string and after some coding i.e once ur file has been loaded successful code u can write similar code to increment or counter values which u are asking for...
search s_tvarvc-low for '20'.
        if sy-subrc ne 0.
          sy-msgty = 'E'.
          sy-msgid = 'ZWM1'.
          sy-msgno = '000'.
          sy-msgv1 = 'Unable to find DATE to increment'.
          raise unable_increment.
        else.
          w_date = s_tvarvc-low+sy-fdpos(08).
          w_nextdate = w_date + 1.
          replace w_date with w_nextdate into s_tvarvc-low.
          modify tvarvc from s_tvarvc.
        endif.

Loading data from flat file to table

Hi,
I am using OWB 10g R2. I have to develop a map which loads data from flat file to table.
1. I have created a .csv file.
2. Import that into OWB by Module Wizard.
3. I have created one external table, which use the .csv file.
After that what I have to do for successfully loading the data into table.
Regards,
Sanjoy

Hi Sanjoy
You can building a mapping to move the data from somewhere to somewhere else. More specifically;
1. create a mapping
2. add external table to mapping
3. add table to mapping for target (it can be unbound)
4. map from external table ingroup to target table ingroup (all columns will be mapped)
5. if target table was unbound right click on target table and click create and bind
This is a basic mapping you can have for this scenario. There is a post here which does something like this, but it will create a File to Table mapping which will use SQLLoader.

Error while loading table from flat file (.csv)

I have a flat file which i am loading into a Target Table in Oracle Warehouse Builder. It uses SQL Loader Internally to load the data from flat file, I am facing an issue. Please find the following error ( This is an extract from the error log generated)
SQL*Loader-500: Unable to open file (D:\MY CURRENT PROJECTS\GEIP-IHSS-Santa Clara\CDI-OWB\Source_Systems\Acquisition.csv)
SQL*Loader-552: insufficient privilege to open file
SQL*Loader-509: System error: The data is invalid.
SQL*Loader-2026: the load was aborted because SQL Loader cannot continue.
I believe that this is related to SQL * Loader error.
ACtually the flat file resides in my system ( D:\MY CURRENT PROJECTS\GEIP-IHSS-Santa Clara\CDI-OWB\Source_Systems\Acquisition.csv). I am connecting to a oracle server.
Please suggest
Is it required that i need to place the flat file in Oracle Server System ??
Regards,
Ashoka BL

Hi
I am getting an error as well which is similar to that described above except that I get
SQL*Loader-500: Unable to open file (/u21/oracle/owb_staging/WHITEST/source_depot/Durham_Inventory_Labels.csv)
SQL*Loader-553: file not found
SQL*Loader-509: System error: The system cannot find the file specified.
SQL*Loader-2026: the load was aborted because SQL Loader cannot continue.
The difference is that Ashoka was getting
SQL*Loader-552: insufficient privilege to open file
and I get
SQL*Loader-553: file not found
The initial thought is that the file does not exist in the directory specified or I have spelt the filename incorrectly it but this has been checked and double checked. The unix directory also has permission to read and write.
Also in the error message is
Control File: C:\u21\oracle\owb_staging\WHITEST\source_depot\INV_LOAD_LABEL_INVENTORY.ctl
Character Set WE8MSWIN1252 specified for all input.
Data File: /u21/oracle/owb_staging/WHITEST/source_depot/Durham_Inventory_Labels.csv
Bad File: C:\u21\oracle\owb_staging\WHITEST\source_depot\Durham_Inventory_Labels.bad
As can be seen from the above it seems to be trying to create the ctl and bad file on my c drive instead of on the server in the same directory as the .csv file. The location is registered to the server directory /u21/oracle/owb_staging/WHITEST/source_depot
I am at a lost as this works fine in development and I have just promoted all the development work to a systest environment using OMBPlus.
The directory structure in development is the same as systest except that the data file is /u21/oracle/owb_staging/WHITED/source_depot/Durham_Inventory_Labels.csv and everything works fine - .ctl and .bad created in the same directory and the data sucessfully loads into a oracle table.
Have I missed a setting in OWB during the promotion to systest or is there something wrong in the way the repository in the systest database is setup?
The systest and development databases are on the same box.
Any help would be much appreciated
Thanks
Edwin

How to load Material from Flat File and convert to SAP Format

Hi
I am loading 0Material values from Flat File for mapping purpose. The format of Material in Flat File is "7704132". Within the system, i need to compare the value with 0Material values from the incoming data and update corresponding 0Material in records. for this purpose, I created dummy materials taking 0Material as template and trying to load data. I am getting invalid error- Version '7704132' is not valid RSDMD No194. Can anyone please let me know how to over come this issue. Should I include any routine in the data source or rules level. I am in BI 7.0.
Thanks.

Hi,
Use the FM CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT to convert the value into Internal format .Use this FM in the Transformations (field mapping).
Search the forum with CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT for more information on this.

Error in loading data from flat file....

Hi,
While loading the data from flat file , only one column is getting populated in the ODS and after that the sixth column is getting populated with the null values. Also when I save the changes in CSV file .. its not getting saved.
Could you please tell me what could be the probable reason for this.
Also what are the points we should keep in mind while loading from flat files.
Regards,
Jeetu

Hi,
You need to take care of -
1. you flat file structure ( left to right columns) should match with the datasource ( top to down) column to column. if you don't wish to laod some column, leave it as blank column in flat file.
2. your file should not be open when loading data
3. make sure your transfer rules & update rules are defined properly.
4. do the simulation in infopakage first & that will give you fair idea.
5. to start with load data first in PSA Only, check & then take it forward.
hope it helps

Loading Cube From Flat File

Hi All,
Ex: If cube is loaded from Flat file , say with 10 records and during next load only 1 record is changed.
Is it possible to load cube with all 10 records without deleting previous request which should not result in duplicate records in cube?

Hi.......
Infocube is always additive...........so there will be Duplicate records.........Only DSO has the overwritten option.......So for this u hav to go for DSO.........
But if u need to load in infocube only..........then u can do one thing..........
Start process
Delete Traget Content(Process : Complete Deletion of Data Target Contents )
Load infocube
Then first content of the cube will get deleted..........then cube will be loaded.........this will solve ur problem......
Hope this helps.....
Regards,
Debjani.......

Help with loading infocube from flat file

Hi:
I am using SCM 5.1 and the BI 7.0 component that comes with it. I am trying to create an infocube and load it with flat file data but getting errors.
1. First I created the infoobjects and the infocube.
2.a I first tried to create only the data source and activate the datasource. This was not successful.
2.b I then tried to create the application component, infosource etc. (like one does in BW 3.0) but was still not successful.
If you have any pointers, could you please let me know? Thanks.

Problem in loading data from flat file to info object

Hi experts,
I am new on bw. I am trying to load data from .csv file to info object. CSV file contains two colums Mat No, Mat Name and are separated by comma and similarly Mat Name is attribute of Mat No in info object. I am doing all steps by following the book but whenever I load data into info object it is loaded in one column. I mean both Mat no and Mat name apears in Mat No column whereas Mat Name column appears empty in info object. I have changed exel file into .csv. Any one can help me sort it out.
regards

Hi,
your flatfile should be in the form of csv ie it does not mean that in a word u seperate it with coma
create an excel file and say save as in teh file name give the name of your flatfile and in the save as type select CSV(comma delimited) from the drop down list
and then in this file enter the data as u fill in excel sheet.
After closing the file right click it and say open with wordpad then the data should appear seperated with a comma.
Try this and then revert back in case of any doubts.........
Are u loading data into BI 7.0 or 3.x

Madhavi
