Multiple columns in a data file, but accounts not periods

Hi there,
A very quick question.
If I have a data file with, for example AcctDetail down the side and accounts across the top, am I right in thinking I can't load like this? Is it only periods that can be in multiple columns?
I'm trying to adapt an existing file, without changing it too much, but I think this might be beyond BPC!
Thanks,
Jason

Hi there,
The data I'm loading is actually Intercompany data for one unit, for one period.
So I have my affiliate (or counterparty, whatever term you use) down the rows, and the designated intercompany accounts across the top.
I don't need multiple columns for periods, as I'm only loading one period, but I would prefer to use multiple columns for Accounts dimension instead.
I know I can nest affiliates and accounts in the rows, but as I mentioned I would rather avoid changing the data file as much as possible.
Hope that make sense!
Thanks,
Jason

Merge/Concat Multiple Columns in a Flat-File wthin ODI

Hi,
I was wondering if there is a quick way to merge/concat multiple columns in a Flat-File from within ODI, a functionality kinda similar to Essbase load rule files for join/split columns etc.
Please let me know.
Thanks

Looks like the CONCAT function works only with Memory Engine. Could someone please confirm this? If this is true, I guess applying the patch is the only resolution.
Thanks

I am having trouble getting a numbers spreadsheet to hold different formats in the same column. A column with a date formatted heading will not convert to $ for the cells below.   Any suggestions would help.

Hi Wayne,
Thank you for this response. I have tried this but when I start enterring $ amounts some, such as $6.00, go in OK others such as $4.00 appear as a date ie 4 Oct 12.

I am using both PSE 13 and Lightroom 5. When I use Lightroom as an external editor and save the photo, it shows up in PSE13 as an edited file but does not look any different. Why doesn't it appear edited?

I am using both PSE 13 and Lightroom 5. When I use Lightroom as an external editor and save the photo, it shows up in PSE13 as an edited file but does not look any different. Why doesn't it appear edited?

People who have Photoshop, but don't have Lightroom, need ACR so that they can use Raw files. Without ACR they could do nothing with those (they may also like having ACR so that they can work on other kinds of image using the same kinds of adjustments and techniques, as are used with Raw files).
People who have Lightroom, can get access to Raw files regardless whether ACR is present or not. They can use Lightroom on other kinds of image also, using the same methods. LR can pass images directly into Photoshop without passing via ACR (or else does so transparently, which amounts to substantially the same thing).
ACR does not, strictly speaking, even need to be installed for this external editing to happen. In fact, not even PS needs to be - since a different image editor can be used instead, while still retaining the Adobe Raw conversion etc.
Lightroom "subcontracts out" specialised external tasks, in this workflow, but is still your "main contractor": the image is otherwise located, viewed, managed, adjusted/presented and output entirely using LR.
So IMO we can divide image processing into:
operations that involve pixels and layers and layer masks and adjustment layers etc (of the kind done inside Photoshop)
operations that involve parametric edits (of the kind done in ACR where you are not using a Lightroom based workflow; otherwise, done inside Lightroom)
When PS is called in, that's because those tasks are impossible or unsuitable to do in Lightroom. But those tasks can't be done in ACR either - by definition, since LR and ACR have exactly the same image processing "feature set".
Lightroom is irrelevant to the Bridge + ACR + PS workflow. This workflow requires both your PS and your ACR to be current enough, to support your Raw format etc.
ACR and Bridge are irrelevant to the LR + (image editor) workflow. It is in this case, only LR which needs to be current enough to support your Raw format etc.

downloaded acrobat reader 11 onto my Mac Book Pro, it can open the file but will not print. Get a message that says PDF cannot be printed, however, I forwarded it to someone else and they could print it, no problem. I called HP and spent an 1hour with them and then called Apple support and worked with them for 3 hours. No one can figure it out. Is there something wrong with this version? the pdf was created in 2004. Do I have to pay to get Acrobat?

Let me give you a slightly different perspective than everyone else here. You are using an unsecured wireless network, which means that all your network traffic is easily available for viewing by anyone else using that network. That's bad. Very bad, for you, unless you absolutely trust everyone who lives within range of this network. So stop doing it.
As to the Mac not connecting, wireless networking is simply too complex for any reasonable answer without more information. There are many possible error points, and as often as not it's the Mac that can connect and the Windows PC that cannot. Since you can't give us any information about the configuration of the neighbor's network, and can't make any changes to it, we can't do much to help you troubleshoot it.

Writing several / multiple columns in a *.lvm file using write file option

Hello All,
I am doing several measurements and till now writing all the measurement in individual files thereby I am forced to use an external program to merge the files into one file of several columns.
Is there a possibility to write a *.lvm file (or some other possibility say a *.txt file but no excel) with multiple columns where each column stands for a particular data?
I am attaching a simple example where I have 4 different measurements (simulated using a regulator(I dont know how I can say this vi in english)??) which I am converting into array and trying to write them in a file of *.lvm extension. But the output is still a single column where every measurement is taking a different row which I dont want.
Thanks in advance.
Jan

Instead of using the Build Array, just wire your scalars to the Merge Signals function. This will create 4 separate signals that will be written in 4 separate columns. With the existing 1D array, you could also use the Write to Spreadsheet File instead of Write to Measurement File.

Use of PL/SQL to populate table columns from XML data file

I'm trying to find the easiest way to transfer data from a flat file that is in XML format into a traditional Oracle table. Not retaining the XML but actually map an XML element to a column so standard SQL, Forms, Reports, etc can access like it was created using a Form.
Example: Table A has column names Tom, Dick and Harry and the XML file has elements Tom, Dick and Harry and I just want a function that maps and inserts/loads the data into Table As individual columns.
The process needs to be easily initiated by an end user. The user gets the XML data file via an email attachment and needs to do something like a Concurrent Request to pull in the file and load it. Using PL/SQL would be great.
I appreciate any help that can be provided.

Hi,
HELP!!!!!
We are having the same problem and we are using oracle 10ir2.
We create an object type (sql type globally not in a package):
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE G_EX AS OBJECT
( EX_ID NUMBER ,
EX_CON VARCHAR2 ( 100 ) ,
EX_L VARCHAR2 ( 30 ) ,
EX_T VARCHAR2 ( 4000 ) );
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE G_EX LIST AS TABLE OF GEX AS ;
then we insert data through a bulk collect within the package with the table declared of this array of object types:
v_table G_EX _LIST:= NULL;
SELECT G_EX (ex_id
,ex_con
,ex_l
,ex_t )
BULK COLLECT INTO v_table
FROM exs_lookup;
I am using the syntax (below) but it gives PL/SQL: ORA-00902: invalid datatype
sometimes not always:
SELECT G_EX ( ex_id
,ex_con
,ex_l
,ex_t )
BULK INTO v_data_record
FROM TABLE (v_table)
WHERE ex_id = p_key;
where p_key - is a number type
and v_data_record is a G_EX object type.
I was wondering if anyone else encountered a similar problem, and knows what we may have done wrong. Since we dont understand why this piece of code is throwing this ora-00902 errors occasionally not always.
Also, if we restart the database up once this errors occurs it appears to stop throwing this ora_00902 error for a lenght of time. Then it comes up with the ora-00902 error again (why?)
thanks

SQL*Loader . A column value in data file contains comma(,)

Hi Friends,
I am getting an issue while loading a csv file to database.
A column in datafile contains a comma .. how to load such data?
For ex, a record in data file is :
453,1,452,N,5/18/2006,1,"FOREIGN, NON US$ CORPORATE",,,310
Here "FOREIGN, NON US$ CORPORATE" is a column and contains a , in the value.
I have specified optionally enclosed with " also.. but still not working
Here is my control file:
options (errors=100)
load data
infile 'TAX_LOT_DIM_1.csv'
badfile 'TAX_LOT_DIM_1.bad'
replace
into table TAX_LOT_DIM
fields terminated by ',' optionally enclosed by '"'
trailing nullcols
TAX_LOT_DIM_ID ,
TAX_LOT_NBR ,
TAX_LOT_ODS_ID ,
RESTRICTION_IND ,
LAST_UPDATE_DTM ,
TRAN_LOT_NBR integer,
MGR_GRP_CD optionally enclosed by '"' ,
RESTRICTION_AMT "TO_NUMBER(:RESTRICTION_AMT,'99999999999999999999.999999999999')" ,
RESTRICTION_INFO ,
SRC_MGR_GRP_CD
Problem is with MGR_GRP_CD column in ctrl file.
Please reply asap.

Thanks for the response.
Actually my ctrl file is like this with some conversion functions:
replace
into table TAX_LOT_DIM
fields terminated by ',' optionally enclosed by '"'
trailing nullcols
TAX_LOT_DIM_ID "TO_NUMBER(:TAX_LOT_DIM_ID ,'999999999999999.99999999')",
TAX_LOT_NBR ,
TAX_LOT_ODS_ID "to_number(:TAX_LOT_ODS_ID ,'999999999999999.999999')",
RESTRICTION_IND ,
LAST_UPDATE_DTM "to_date(:LAST_UPDATE_DTM ,'mm/dd/yyyy')",
TRAN_LOT_NBR integer, --"TO_NUMBER(:TRAN_LOT_NBR,'999999999999999.99999999999999999')",
MGR_GRP_CD char optionally enclosed by '"' ,
RESTRICTION_AMT "TO_NUMBER(:RESTRICTION_AMT,'99999999999999999999.999999999999')" ,
RESTRICTION_INFO ,
SRC_MGR_GRP_CD
For char columns , even i dont give any datatype, i think it will work.
And pblm is not with this hopefully.

Enhance Account BO to add multiple(1..N) dates against that account

Hi All,
As all of us are aware of date management in transnational level , Can I achieve similar functionality in Business Partner Data.
I want to maintain multiple dates(Configurable) against Account. Any pointer on how would i achieve that? I have created .Xbo for account but where can i mention that i will be holding multiple lines against my Root entity.
Regards,
Dhruvin

Hi May T,
Thanks for ur suggestion.
I have done the same thing as you told. but do i need to make an association with parent BO(Customer)
.. i think i need it because on save of customer this should also get saved.
btw below is my Custom BO Datamodel:
import AP.Common.GDT as apCommonGDT;
businessobject ZZMilestone {
//Root
[AlternativeKey] element AccountID : BusinessPartnerID;
[AlternativeKey] element REf_UUID : UUID;
// Table
node Dates[0,n]{
element milestonecode : MILESTONECode;
element milestonedate : Date;
I have not created association now as i m linkning my Custom BO To customer with UUID of account and accountID.
but i dont know while save i have some error like entry with same instance already exists. So i think i m making some mistke in declaring alternative key or some thing.
If you want i can explain step by step[ what i have done
Thanks for helping!

Adding column names to data file

Hi,
I have a question regarding writing to file. Currently in my program, when I start running it, a dialog box pops up and the user gets to pick/ create a file. My data is written on to a file as columns. I want to add column names to the file. Any suggestions on how to do it? Since the file is created by the user at run time and since the column names have to be added just once at the beginning, I'm not sure how to go about doing this. Any suggestions or pointers?
Thanks,

Portege 3500 loads start up files but will not setup XP

When I purchased this 3500 it did not have an OS.
I managed to find a PCMCIA CD-Rom (thanks to this forum) which it will recognize the Windows XP CD.
This loads the Startup files but when we get to the Windows setup it closes the computer down requesting I look for virus and do a ch disk on the HDD.
I put the HDD in my other laptop and Windows seems to go into setup with no problems.
The HDD seems to have no problems.
This has bugged me for a couple of months now so any advice from anybody will be gratefully received.
Many thanks,
Martin

Hi again.
I've found something that might help you. It's not very easy but is should not prove too much of a problem either.
First go to this website : http://www.ultimatebootcd.com/ and download the latest build of the boot CD (which seems to be a very nice general tool by the way!).
Once downloaded, unpack it and burn the ISO-file to a blank CD Rom. You'll need a ISO-capable burning software to manage this (like Nero or other similar software).
Ok, so now you have the Ultimate Boot CD in your hand (hopefully).
Attach the external CD Rom to you P3500 and turn the P3500 on.
During the Toshiba-logo press ESC several times. You should get a message saying "Check system. Then press [F1] key."
If not - if the PC starts booting or display a boot failure message - just restart the machine and try again.
Now press the F1 key to enter the BIOS setup.
In the BIOS Setup, press HOME to set default settings, then press END to exit and confirm by pressing Y.
The machine will reboot.
When the TOSHIBA-logo is shown press F12-key a few times.
It should now stop with the boot device selection menue in the bottom.
If not - if the PC starts booting or display a boot failure message - just restart the machine and try again.
Make sure that the Boot CD is in the CD Rom and that the CD Rom is attached to your machine.
In the Boot device selection menue choose the icon that looks like a single disc (CD ROM). Get there by pressing the right or left arrows.
Mark your choice by pressing ENTER.
The machine should now boot from the boot CD Rom.
Once booted choose F6 - DOS/Linux boot disks
From the next menue choose F1 - FreeDOS boot disk
Next steps are a bit tricky because many choices you are provided are time-limited so you need to be quick - or like me, slow and have to do the same procedure over and over again to get it right.
Or! You can use the arrowkeys to abort the timer in the coloured menues! Nice to know when the limits are set really tight.
Choose no 1 from the menu which is default so if you don't choose here - it will be chosen for you.
Next you will be prompted with a kind of 'error' message that the software does not recognise the hardware (chipset). Just press ENTER.
Now the first coloured quiestion will pop up - do like described above if you need more time to think (like me) press the arrow-keys.
You can press Abort on the first one asking about ASPIUSB
Next one is important - CD-ROM.
Press Config.
In the menue that appears, choose Auto, try to detect all. Move around by using the TAB or arrow key and choose the item with SPACE.
The press Save - but you will get an error message since it is not possible to save this setting to the CD Rom. Don't worry, press OK.
Now press OK to run the CD Rom driver.
Next menue "ASPI"- press OK
Next menue "Keyboard" - press OK or press Config to pick another layout.
Next menue "DOSLFN" - Press OK
Next menue "NTFS Support" - Press OK
Last menue - Press OK
Now, finally! You have acess to both CD and HDD. The driveletters are shown at the bottom of the screen.
Next step is to insert the XP disc, copy the contents from the \i386 folder to a temp directory of the HDD and start the installation from that place.
Phew!
Good luck
Tom

Merge Data Files into Spreadsheet not working

HELP! I created the form files in Adobe Acrobat Pro XI, saved as Reader Extended PDF, have a submit button that emails me, and I download them to a folder on my desktop. When I try to "Merge Data Files into Spreadsheet" all I get back is the file name. I've tried with 10 files and only one file and it STILL won't work so it is not that the fields don't line up.
What do I do now?

It's hard to say without looking at one of the files. If you can't post one somewhere, I'd be happy to take a look if you're free to email me: acroscript at gmail dot com
