Loading Time stamp from Flat File

Dear Experts,
     I thank you for your kind support and replies.
   Again I am stuck in a issue. So I need your help.
   We are loading flat file data into a cube/dso. The flat file contains time stamp field.
All the data are getting loaded properly except time stamp.
The field is taking system date and time of data loading.
I have taken the customized info-object like 0TCTTIMSTMP.
Kingly guide me, where I am going wrong.
Thanks,
Sanjana

Hi Experts,
      I am trying to load the flat file, the input format is attached below.
Creation Date
20,150,411,121,600
20,150,406,032,600
20,150,406,125,800
     but after loading into the ODS , the data is becoming
20150424102709
20150424102709
20150424102709.
   This means it is taking today's Date..
I have the checked the PSA level, there also the data is 20150424102709.
Also checked the Conversion Routine, it is maintained with TIMES.
Kindly suggest, what may be the cause or how can I work on this.
Thanks,
Sanjana.

How to load the data from flat file ( ex excel ) to Planning area directly

Hi all ,
How can i load thedata fro m flat file directly to Planning area .
PLease help me in this.
Regards,
Chandu .

download one key figure data from planning book ( interactive damand plan) and made some changes and need to upload the data back to same planning book
But, may I know why you are thinking of downloading, changing and uploading for just changing the figures for a particular key figure. You can do it in the planning book itself.
However, not all the key-figures can be changed. But, what type of key-figure you are speaking here? Is it like 'Forecast' for which the value is based on other key-figures, or is like a key-figure where some manual adjustments are to be done--so that it can be manually edited? However, in both the cases, the data can be changed in the planning book only. In first case, you can change the values of dependant key-figures and in the second case, you can change the key-figures directly.
And please note that you can change the values of the key-figures only at the detailed level. So, after loading the data in the book, use drill-down option, maintain the data at the detailed level, change the figures, and automatically, this gets reflected at the higher level.
In case you are unable to change the values, go to the 'Design' mode of the book, right-click your key-figure, under "Selected Rows", uncheck "Output Only" option. In case you are unable to see that option, then you are not authorised to change that. See if you can change the authorisations by going to the "Data View" tab in planning book configuration (/n/sapapo/sdp8b), and change the value of Status to 3.
Hope your query is answered with different solutions offered by many of the sdn colleagues here.

Transfer time stamp from text file into MS Access thru Labview

Hello everyone,
I am Cruz; Long time listener, First time caller.
I am currently monotoring data being collected by an oven. The data is stored in a text file. I am using Labview to take the data from the textfile and place it in an MS access DB for manipulation. The first three columns of the text file are the time stamp of data. When i transfer the data into Access i cant get the first three columns to display as a time stamp. Can have some pointers on what how to get the first three columns to display correctly.
Additional info:
the text file is a 1D array that gets overitten with every new mesurement tanken. the transfer to Acces is to not loos any of the information and to better manipulate the data into forms and such.
Running Labview 2010
attached is code and text file.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Your first mistake is reading the file as DBL. Your first three columns are obviously not numeric values. Did you ever look at the output array? Read it as strings. Second, you would need to combine those first three columns to create an actual time stamp before you write to the db. Unless of course you have one column for date, one column for time, and one column for AM/PM. I would not recomend that type of structure in the db.

Loading customer hierachy from flat file

Hello Friends,
I have a requirement to load time dependent customer hierarchy, to be used in BEx reports. I have gone most of the threads in the forums about 0cust_sales and 0customer.
The table that is updated in ECC is KNVH. As we cannot map the data from KNVH directly to 0customer, I have loaded the data to 0cust_sales using using datasource 0CUST_SALES_LKDH_HIER.
Now I have downloaded the 0cust_sales hierarchy using the program Z_SAP_HIERARCHY_DOWNLOAD and changed the object there to reflect 0customer.
Once the file is downloaded, I tried to create a file datasource for 0Customer and load the file.
Initially I found issues with format, as 0cust_sales would have a combination of sales org, dist channel, division together with customer. I replaced all those numbers with zeros.
The preview looks good with all the fields properly populated.
But still not able to load the file. I have checked in SLG1, its all green. but hierarchy does not show any update.
As a second step, I tried to create a manually 2 nodes in the 0customer hierarchy and tried to download it using the program. Then tried to upload again. Its working after manual change only for some entries
Any inputs are highly appreciated.
Thanks
Ed.

Thanks Aditya for your reply.We are on BW 7.3.
These are the steps taken
1. Loaded the 0cust_sales hierarchy from ECC(knvh) - good
2. Downloaded the hierarchy as a .txt file using Z_SAP_HIERARCHY_DOWNLOAD program
3. Created a Datasource for hierarchy for 0customer using file system
4. Modified the downloaded file ( re arranged the columns and also the width of the columns) and saved it as .csv
4. Created transformations and uploaded the file to 0customer. It went though fine.
5. The requirement is to automate it. I am not able to upload the downloaded file from 0cust_sales to 0customer, even if i remove distribution channel, division and sales org
Following is the snippet of the file
Or there are any other options.
0cust_sales download

Plotting Time Stamp from Txt file in Column to another column

I want to know how to plot 2 columns that i am reading from a text file.
column 1 has a time stamp in HH:MMS, and column 5 has data in which i want to plot the time verus the data.

The Scan from String function will do most of those conversions in a single step. Here are a couple of examples. You will still need to read the array of strings in and process in a loop.

Loading Date fields from flat file to Oracle tables

Hi,
I have a flat file with a few date columns. I have given the format for the date field while creating the data store for the flat file. The format I used is 'YYYY-MM-DD'.
But I get an error when I execute it after associating the module with LKM & IKM.
The error message is as follows:
org.apache.bsf.BSFException: exception from Jython: Traceback (innermost last):
File "<string>", line 3, in ?
OS command has signalled errors
Can anyone help me out.
Thanks

At the time of DataStore creation. You take that date field as string.
After this, in interface, when you map this date field with table field. You should use CONVERT(<field name>,DATE) in expression editor.

Error in load master data from flat file to infocube "No SID found for val"

Hi gurus
while i m loding data from ffile to infocube. getting error message "No SID found for value 'HOT ' of characteristic 0UNIT" for material name field .
in flat file one fileld having lower carrecter so i have defined formula for upper case in transfer rule.
after scheduleing message is "data was requested". but in monitor-> detail-> request, extraction status is green and transfer , processing ststus are red.
overall status is red.

It appears your transfer structure and source file are not mapped correctly. Make sure your source file is in the correct format. TRy the "preview" function to make sure.
Also, is the file and your log on language the same? For instance is the file from a GErman user but you are logged in in English? You will see errors like that when you use ST (Stuck = Pieces) instead of PC (Peices in English)
To test a bad mapping, hard code the Unit to something to make sure...(to PC for instance).
Also, the error message you are getting is because of transfer structure, please re-activate it. IF it persists, try to skip the PSA and go straight to the data target.

How to pass parameters to the Control file while loading the data from flat file to staging table

Thanks in advance

Hi ,
LOADDATA statement is required at the beginning of the control file.
INFILE: INFILE keyword is used to specify location of the datafile or datafiles.
INFILE* specifies that the data is found in the control file and not in an external file. INFILE ‘$FILE’, can be used to send the filepath and filename as a parameter when registered as a concurrent program.
INFILE ‘/home/vision/kap/import2.csv’ specifies the filepath and the filename.
Hope this will help you......

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
