Multiple outer joins from a single table

Here is my scenario - I have 3 folders:
Theater - contains Theater Name and Theater ID
Agency - contains Agency Name and Theater ID
Depot - contains Depot Name and Theater ID
A theater may or may not have an agency. Likewise, it may or may not have a depot.
Thus, I've set up a join from Theater (master) to Agency on Theater ID, and selected "outer join on detail"
Likewise, I've done the same between Theater (master) and Depot on Theater ID
When I attempt to create a report with the columns Theater Name, Agency Name, and Depot Name, I am unable to do so. I can only pick either Agency Name or Depot Name, not both. When I try to add the second outer joined element, Discoverer reports that it cannot determine the join configuration because "more than 1 of the detail folders uses non-aggregate items"
What am I doing wrong? Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

Hi,
Try change the joins to be "outer join on detail" and "one to one join relationship between master and detail".
Hope that helps,
Rod West

    Thanks in advance

    Hi
    Yes you can join,
    Like below =- it is called self join -
    Slect a.oersson_id,a.employee_numebr, b.full_name
    form
    hr_all_organization_units a,
    hr_all_organization_units b
    where
    a.person_id = b.person_id and

  • Query with multiple outer joins

    I had a doubt with whether the following kind of query is valid with multiple outer-joins. The format of the query is something like this:-
    select A.col1, B.col2
    from table1 A, table2 B, table3 C where
    A.col3=B.col4(+) and B.col5=C.col6(+)
    This would mean the follwoing with regard to outer-joins in the query.
    1) fetch records with col3 in table A matching or not matching col4 in table B
    2) fetch records with col5 in table B matching or not matching col6 in table C
    So, this query is valid?
    I hope, my question is clear.
    Please, help in solving the doubt.
    regards

    This is valid and it works fine

  • Multiple 'logical joins' between a fact table and one dimension table

    It appears that one cannot create multiple ‘logical joins’ between a fact table and one dimension table in OBIEE using the Oracle BI Administration Tool. For example, considering a Business Model with a dimension table TIMES and a fact table FACT containing START_TIME and END_TIME, we would like to create separate logical joins from FACT to TIMES for the START_TIMEs and END_TIMEs? Obviously, the underlying foreign keys can be created, but as far as I can tell the Oracle BI Administration Tool doesn’t support this. The workaround would be to replicate the TIMES table, but that’s ugly.
    I seek an alternative approach.

    Try this. Create an two aliases for the TIMES dimension (Start & End) in the Physical Layer and then remove foreign key to the "Parent" Times dimension. Create the Foreign Key in the Physical Layer to the new aliases and then create the complex joins in the BMM Layer to the new aliases as well. This will allow you to present both dates within the same table in the Presentation Layer. Not the most elegant solution but it works.

  • Multiple Outer join in ORACLE 8.1.6

    I know this version of oracle doesnt support this. But is there anmy other wa\y I can achieve this.
    Thanks amd Regards
    Deependra

    Tricky question - but I went through this about 3 months ago, and found a good thread on here that explains it pretty well.
    check out Re: Outer join a table with two diff table
    You basically will have to create an inline view with one outer join in there, and then a second outer join on the outside. Read through the posts in that thread and it should help!

  • Calling  multiple  script  logics from  a  single  package

    Team- How  do i  call multiple  script  logics  from a   single  DM  package...?
    I   know  its  possible  and  have seen  a  prototype  but  cant  recollect  or  find  it on sdn...
    Thanks  for  your  time.
    Vishal.

    Hi,
    You can create a master script logic which will include all the other script logics using the *INCLUDE command and call this master script through your DM package.
    Another way is to have multiple tasks in the process chain which is calling a script logic. You can pass separate script logics to each of the tasks.
    I would prefer the first option
    Hope this helps.

  • Generate multiple idoc's from the single application doc(Sales order)

    Hi All,
    Iam working on a requirement where i have to generate multiple idoc's from a single sales order based on sales org, division on header data and plant at item level, if somebody please let me know how to proceed with this requirement.
    Thanks
    Kashif

    Hi,
    You can create a Z-program and call Function Module  <b>MASTER_IDOC_DISTRIBUTE</b>.
    You can make a call to this FM to send the Idoc as many times as u have plants in your Sales Order.
    You can call FM <b>IDOC_OUTPUT_ORDRSP</b> to fill the IDoc structure.
    Then u can keep the materials of only that plant for which u want to pass on the information.
    Thanks,

  • Extract Multiple Rows from a Single Table into a Single Row in a New Table

    I have a table in a database that contains contact data like name, address, phone number, etc.
    The folks who designed the database and wrote the application wrote it so that all contact records are placed in that table, regardless of contact type. In fact, the contacts table does not even have a column for "type" even though there are many
    different types of contacts present in that table.
    I am trying to write a mail merge style report in SRSS, that gets sent to a specific type of contact, based on criteria provided that must be obtained from another table, and that data is then used to get back to a specific set of contacts from the contacts
    table.
    The attached file directly below describes my problem and all related information in an extremely detailed way.
    SRSSMailMergeIssue.pdf
    Unless there is a way to make a SRSS Tablix point to two different data sets in SRSS, it looks like I have to combine multiple rows from the same table into a new table.
    If anyone can review the details in the attached pdf file and possibly point me in the direction I need to run to solve this probelm, I would greatly appreciate it.
    I also included a document (below) that shows the tables I reference in the probelm description.

  • Provisioning multiple AD Groups from a Single Privilege

    Experts,
    We're encountering a situation here when we provision to multiple Active Directory groups from a single IDM Role.
    The scenario is this:
    We have a workflow that has multiple conditional and switch tasks that result in the provisioning of users to Active Directory 2008 (mixed mode) Our workflow uses the provisioning framework and all users have been granted the ONLY privilege for the system.
    The workflow will result in adding the users to multiple AD groups sometimes two AD groups that are associated with a single IDM role. The first assignment always works, the second does simply does not occur, no entry in the system or job log although IDM does show that the role has been assigned with an 'OK' status.
    We've accomplished a workaround by redesigning the workflow so that only single roles are assigned at a time and using chain result OK links to move from one provisioning activity to another, but frankly, we are unsatisfied with this.  IDM should be handling this much better through
    I'm wondering if we have a pending value floating out there and we should just be applying the pending value at the end of every AD group add.
    Any thoughts on this would be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Matt

    Matt,
    In your post you mention "I'm wondering if we have a pending value floating out there and we should just be applying the pending value at the end of every AD group add"... I'm faced with a similar issue were I'm left pending values for privileges after the group is assigned.
    I've imported the AD groups as privileges. I assign them without issue. But when I review the assignments I can see that each corresponding privilege assignment now has a pending value. I can not remove the privilege from the user at this point.
    Have you seen this before? Any suggestions on how I can clean this up. BTW, I'm using the SAP PF basically unchanged...
    Thanks!

  • Multiple foreign keys to a single table

    Hi,
    I need to write an SQL sentence to bring a unique row formed from multiple foreign keys which are dependent on the same table. The two tables as follow:

    Thanks for your help!!!

    Welcome to the forum!
    Have you thought about joining against the parent table three times to pick up each different description?
    SELECT  <COLUMN LIST>
    ,       UNI_A.DESCRIPCION
    ,       UNI_B.DESCRIPCION
    ,       UNI_C.DESCRIPCION
    FROM    TRANSPORTE

    JOIN    UNIDADMEDIDA    UNI_B   ON UNI_B.IDUNIDADMEDIDA = TRANPORTE.IDUMCONSUMOPROM
    JOIN    UNIDADMEDIDA    UNI_C   ON UNI_C.IDUNIDADMEDIDA = TRANPORTE.IDUMCONSUMOTOT

  • Executing multiple sql statements from a single sql file

    Hi, I am Vijay Krishna.
    I want to drop user, drop tablespace, create tablespace and create user from a single executable file or a single sql file. The command should be in sequence. How can we achieve it? Can I anybody help me in this regard. I want this as soon as possible. It's urgent. Kindly post a reply.
    Also, how can we know the oracle home directory from a java program? The problem is we should know the Oracle home directory and use it for creating the tablespace. In the userinterface we will give just for a new database user creation. I will be really thankfull if anybody can help me in this regard.

    It is showing any error messages.
    I will diplay the entire batch file which we are using.
    sqlplus / as sysdba
    drop user examination cascade;
    drop tablespace examination;
    create tablespace examination
    datafile 'C:\oracle\product\10.1.0\oradata\orcl\examination.dbf'
    size 500M autoextend on;
    create user examination identified by examination
    default tablespace examination
    quota unlimited on examination;
    grant connect, resource to examination;
    exit;
    when i run the batch file from the DOS prompt it is entering into the sql prompt and coming out in a fraction of a second. We are just seeing a screen coming and going. But no error messages are being displayed.
    first we thought that as we are giving the create tablespace and create user in the same file we created another file and tried without having the create commands. Even then the user didn't get dropped.

  • Multiple clob fields in a single table

    Are there any known performance issues associated with having 4 CLOB fields in a single table... the table as such will be relatively small.. like 100 MB... with most rows being << 50k.

    Not really. If you need 4 CLOB columns and it makes sense to have alll the columns in a single table, go for it.

  • Creation of Multiple billing documents from a Single sales order

    Hi Experts,
    How can we create many billing documents from a Single sales order.
    Will it be possible we create a Sales order with bigger quantity and then keep on creating partial billing documents based on the billing quantities and dates.
    Request you all for a solution.
    Thanks
    Montee

    Hi ,
    1. If Qty is one number - based on value of the order - it is possible to create different billing doc.'s based on billing date and value using billing plan , again these are periodic billing or milestone billing
    2. Using Contract process- create material /qty contract- release partial qty  by creating release document and create billing document w.r.t to contract or release document (sales order)
