MOLAP to ROLAP: fuzzy dimensions, the same but not equal

We are converting a MOLAP model to ROLAP (snowflake) from Oracle Express to OWB 10.2 using 9.2.0.8 for the repository and apart from preparing the datawarehouse for the end of this year we need to load historical data for the client and there are some dimensions which have “changed” over the years.
Eg: In cube 1 and cube 2 there are 5 dimensions and an indicator for each cube. The dimensions are basically made up of digits that correspond to various descriptions and there are 25 digits for cube 1 and 22 digits for cube 2. The first 2 digits of cube 1 and 2 represent the dimension “Year” (01, 02, 03, 04, 05, 06) where 01 is 2001, 02 is 2002 and so forth.
Let’s say that 3 of the dimensions of cube 1 and cube 2 are the same (Year, Sex and Type) but cube 1 has 2 digits for the dimension “Hair Colour” and cube 2 has 5 digits for “Hair Colour”. The descriptions are the same for each type though.
Cube 1
01 – Blonde
02 – Brown
03 – Yellow
04 – Green
05 – Brown
Cube 2
00001 – Blonde
00002 – Brown
00003 – Yellow
00004 – Green
00005 – Brown
Any ideas of how I could create 1 “hair Colour” dimension for both cubes?

I'll be glad to help if I can, but before risking wasting our time, I really need to ask you to address the key issues in my post in order to eliminate at least most of the variables:
* What exact paper size are you using?
* What's the version of the Epson driver you're running?
* What mode, standard or borderless, are you selecting?  in other words, which of the six virtual 2200 printers installed by the Epson driver installer are you using to print this particular image (see screen shot) ?
In order for my experiment to have some meaning, could you please upload the actual, exact image file you want me to print to a site like yousendit.com or Dropbox so I can download it?
What I can unequivocally tell you is that the image shown in the screen shot prints at exactly the same dimensions shown in the settings of that print dialog box. i.e. 6.636 inches by 8.133 inches as measured by a vernier caliper.

I think this narrows the issue to PS…
…unless the Epson printer driver makes that decision when it detects an image file coming from Photoshop. 
Would that be a distinction without a difference, perhaps? 
An insurmountable difference may be the fact that, on the Mac, I am using the prior version of Photoshop and not running Lion, as I have stopped upgrading OS X at Leopard, and run version 11.0.2 on it.  At a different location I run Photoshop 12.0.4 under Windows, which is not a valid or even relevant comparison.

  • How do I set upmy Imac to allow using both my computer speakers and a Bose SoundLink system as outputs at the same time.  I can use one or the other, but not both.

    how do I set up my Imac to allow using both my computer speakers and a Bose SoundLink system as outputs at the same time.  I can use one or the other, but not both.  From systems Preferences I must select one or the other.  I want both to work all the time.

    Hi,
    I would recommend you to use 0FI_AP_4 rather using both, particularly for many reasons -
    1. DS: 0FI_AP_4  replaces DataSource 0FI_AP_3 and still uses the same extraction structure. For more details refer to the OSS note 410797.
    2. You can run the 0FI_AP_4 independent of any other FI datasources like 0FI_AR_4 and 0FI_GL_4 or even 0FI_GL_14. For more details refer to the OSS note: 551044.
    3. Map the 0FI_AP_4 to DSO: 0FIAP_O03 (or create a Z one as per your requirement).
    4. Load the same to a InfoCube (0FIAP_C03).
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks.

  • When syncing my iTunes to my iPad from the laptop, I get a list of missing songs; they are in the library, but not in the music folder on my HD. In particular, I uploaded 3 CDs at the same time, all are in my library - but two are missing from the folder.

    When syncing my iTunes to my iPad from the laptop, I get a list of missing songs; they are in the library, but not in the music folder on my HD. In particular, I uploaded 3 CDs at the same time, all are in my library, and all synced to the iPad - but the music from two of them are missing from the music folder. Questions are (a) where might they have gone? and (b) is there a way of "reverse loading" them back to my hard drive from the iPad? Thanks in advance!

    Hi dones49,
    It sounds like your issue here is that iTunes can not find the files for some of the songs you have brought into it. This happens occasionally even if the songs have not been moved from the location that iTunes places them on import or purchase. When you try to use the song, iTunes prompts you to find the file, as you have seen.
    To find the file, use the information in this article to navigate through the iTunes media folders -
    Locate and organize your iTunes files
    If you are still unable to locate the files, you may need to download them from the iTunes store again, or rip them from your CDs. See this article for assistance with downloading your past purchases -

  • How to copy data of a table to the same but on a DIFFERENT MACHINE?

    Hello experts,
    I want to copy all entries of table TE422 to the same, but on a <u>different machine</u>. I created a transport request (workbench request using TABU) intending to copy the entire table data from QA into DEV environment.
    However, this is not working, because, in our installation, QA is on one server, and DEV on another! So, in a way, each machine seem to be transparent to the other and I cannot, or, do not know, how to specify the DEV environment as target.
    I was told that I have to do something at the OS level. That is to say, have some kind of SQL query which collects data from one and uploads it onto the other.
    Now my question is: Is there a SAP way to do this, that is to say, forget the SQL thingy and do it with some SAP transaction? If yes, how? If not, do you have a sample code which does this please?
    Your help is greatly appreciated.
    Goharjou

    Method 1:
    You can transport using ALE/IDOC, Write a simple outbound function moule in Source System and Develop a Inbound function module in target system.
    Method 2:
    Download the entire table contents into a flat file from source system by developing a simple report using WS_DOWNLOAD function module. Then Develop a report using WS_UPLOAD in target system and upload thd flat file.
    Thanks & Regards,

  • How do I create both endnotes and footnotes in same doc in Pages? I have iWork 2008. I understand how to create one or the other, but not both.

    How do I create both endnotes and footnotes in same doc in Pages? I have iWork 2008. I understand how to create one or the other, but not both.

    You have to select one or the other.
    Try making two documents and see if you can merge the .pdfs, but their will be problems with page flow, making the pages shift. Can't see it working really.
    Pages is not the only solution out there or the best for most jobs (let alone the safest). Try Word for Mac, LibreOffice (free) or any App that has the features you need.

    Can anyone give me the solution for above.
    Thanks & Regards,

    Hi Reddy,
    So you have completed the challan & update of Bank challan steps?
    I implemented CIN in India in Summer 2009 & we found a number of issues & bugs with the standard code, particularly around the TDS process.   During the J1INMIS processing we found that a number of tables were not being updated (Challan update) & we had to copy & fix the code ourselves as J1INMIS (so I'm lead to believe) is not supported by SAP any longer.
    Good luck!

  • ObjectOutputStream: Sending the same but modified Object twice

    Using the Windows JRE1.6_05 or the JRE 1.6 on Mac OS X and the following code for the client:
    import java.io.ObjectInputStream;
    import java.io.ObjectOutputStream;
    import java.net.Socket;
    public class Client {
         public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
              Socket s=new Socket("127.0.0.1",5000);
              ObjectOutputStream oos= new ObjectOutputStream(s.getOutputStream());
              StringBuffer sb=new StringBuffer("foo");
              oos.writeObject(sb);
              sb.replace(0, sb.length(), "bar");
              oos.writeObject(sb);
    }and the following code for the server
    import java.io.ObjectInputStream;
    import java.io.ObjectOutputStream;
    import java.net.ServerSocket;
    import java.net.Socket;
    public class Server {

              System.out.print(sb);
              sb=(StringBuffer)ois.readObject();
              System.out.println(" "+sb);
    }I expect to get the output "foo bar" but getting "foo foo". For every object type it is true that the non-modified object is received, if the same but modified object is sent twice. Is this a bug?

    I have two networks one each in two cities.  Both are named the same but require different passwords. I am at my second location and cannot connect to this wifi network. How do I delet one network so I can connect to my second network?

    Just go to the wireless network preferences and empty out all the stored wireless networks.. then scan and connect to the local wireless.
    Select them and tap the - button below it.
    Once they are emptied out.. it might be good to reboot the computer with the remember networks unchecked.
    Start with a clean slate.

    Hi Tiri2014,
    There are some differences between Remote PowerShell and Exchange Management Shell. You cannot use the pipeline when you run some cmdlets by using Remote PowerShell.
    Here’s a link to similar case for your reference:

    You can redirect <Profile>\<AppData>\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup to a folder on another drive using NTFSLink (shell ext., might only work on XP) or Junction (cmd line tool).
    In essence you move the existing folder to a new location, create an empty folder where the old one used to be, then get the operating system/tool to link the two togther and silently redirect any file operation on the old location through to the new one.
