Multiple sources

I would like to have some advice what to do best and what can be done in the following scenario:
In our rpd we have an oracle db as source. Now the come with an excel file as source. So we getting a rpd with a multiple source. In the oracle db we have data like: costcenters, time, jobs, absence, fte etc...
The new excel file contains data like budgetted fte, time, costcenters etc...
What to do with those two sources. For the budgetted fte i want to create a new fact. But what to do with the dimension data. Do i have to join them in de physical layer with the "dimension" tables of the oracle db ? can that be done?
Or do i have to create a logical dimension table with two sources? My concern is that i get double records.
So what to do is a scenario like this....
can someone do some advice... if something is not clear... feel free to ask.

Check here you have a complex example of query federation with an Excel file !
http://st-curriculum.oracle.com/obe/fmw/bi/biee/r1013/bi_admin/biadmin.html#t8
You must take attention that you must build also a ster schema in Excel.
You must then have one sheet for the fact table and several others sheet for the dimension.
OBIEE will perform a star query agains Excel and against the database and join them with an outer join on the dimension attribute.
Good luck

    I see that the option called “give exclusive mode applications priority” has been checked.
    Usually different applications and programs can access the sound card simultaneously.
    For example: you can hear the sound in game, while you can run your own music via an external player.
    This is prevented with these options “give exclusive mode applications priority”.
    Maybe you should disable (uncheck) this option to prevent the different applications for using this exclusive mode stream.
    I did it for my DAC. I set the DAC for exclusive mode. Once my audio playback software starts to play music, no other software is able to share the DAC.
    However, I use Win 7 and Realtek sound driver… It’s another configuration.
    So it’s not known to me if your issue is related Win 8.1 system or maybe limitation of sound driver… it could be also possible that one of your sound applications don’t allow multiple sound streaming.

  • Address book multiple sources

    Address book i have set up address book to work with dropbox so all the macs in our office can share the same database this removes the need for all those all those syncing applications and for one person to be in charge of the database.
    Problem is you have to limit the personal info you want in the database as every one has access to it.
    I also have many family members using mac and it would be nice to be able to do something similar with them a unified family contacts book.
    Again you would have the same issues. If Address book could work like ical and operate with multiple sources. You could have all your contacts in one location but keep the info separated and private.
    Any one know if it is possible to achieve this or if something like Bento could

    Thank you, V.K. The good news is that the group is large and the email addresses are hidden in the BCC field so Jane won't know that I have two entries for her in my address book. (And yes, I know I could call them both "Jane Doe" but at some point I would probably shoot myself in the foot by deleting the duplicate without realizing why it's there.)
    I was surprised that whoever coded Address Book and/or Mail didn't use the usual convention of being able to select multiple entries in a list. This would be a nice enhancement for a future release; it's really not that unusual for someone to request that mail be routinely sent to both a home and work email address.

  • Any Tutorial / Sample to create Single PDF from multiple source files using PDF assembler in a watched folder process.

    Any Tutorial / Sample to create Single PDF from multiple source files using PDF assembler in a watched folder process. I have a client application which will prepare number of source files and some meta data information (in .XML) which will be used in header/footer. Is it possible to put a run time generated DDX file in the watch folder and use it in Process. If possible how can I pass the file names in the DDX. Any sample Process will be very helpful.

    If possible, make use of Assembler API in your client application instead of doing this using watched folder. Here are the Assembler samples :  LiveCycle ES2.5 * Programming with LiveCycle ES2.5
    Watched folder can accept zip files (sample : Configuring a watched folder to handle multiple input files and write results to a single folder | Adobe LiveCycle Blog ). You can also use execute script to create the DDX at runtime : LiveCycle ES2 * Application Development Using LiveCycle Workbench ES2

  • Howto deal with multiple source files having the same filename...?

    Ahoi again.
    I'm currently trying to make a package for the recent version of subversive for Eclipse Ganymede and I'm almost finished.
    Some time ago the svn.connector components have been split from the official subversive distribution and have to be packed/packaged extra. And here is where my problem arises.
    The svn.connector consists (among other things) of two files which are named the same:
    http://www.polarion.org/projects/subversive/download/eclipse/2.0/update-site/features/org.polarion.eclipse.team.svn.connector_2.0.3.I20080814-1500.jar
    http://www.polarion.org/projects/subversive/download/eclipse/2.0/update-site/plugins/org.polarion.eclipse.team.svn.connector_2.0.3.I20080814-1500.jar
    At the moment makepkg downloads the first one, looks at its cache, and thinks that it already has the second file, too, because it has the same name. As a result, I can neither fetch both files nor use both of them in the build()-function...
    Are there currently any mechanisms in makepkg to deal with multiple source files having the same name?
    The only solution I see at the moment would be to only include the first file in the source array, install it in the build()-function and then manually download the second one via wget and install it after that (AKA Quick & Dirty).
    But of course I would prefer a nicer solution to this problem if possible. ^^
    TIA!

  • File sender ch. - specifying multiple source with *

    Hi folks,
    In my File2Idoc scenario I need to pick up files from an ftp server where I have about 20 partners which folders look the same.
    like
    root/p1/subd1/import
            p1/subd2/import
            p2/subd1/import
            p2/subd2/import
    In my file sender channel I wanted to specify /root///import but it didnt work.
    1. Is there a way to specify directories like above?
        Or do I have to enumerate all the directories (near 100) in the Advanced selection for source file in the adapter?
    2. I have to move the processed files to import/archive in each partners folder.
        If I specify multiple sources in the adapter, how can I reference them in the Archive directory field on Processing tab?
    thanks

    Hi ,
    While you are using the FTP File Adapter then in the sender Communication channel
    Go to source Directory : then mentioned the /direcotry/filename then under mentioned the File name.
    After that Go to Process Mode tab in the Sender CC Select the Process Mode like "Archive " then you mentioned the Archive directory Path like for ex: /dirname/interfaces/devision/inboundoroutbound/archive then choose the file Type Binary
    May be it helpful to you !

  • What is the use of Multiple source in Logical Table under BMM Layer?

    what is the use of Multiple source in Logical Table under BMM Layer?
    thanks in advance

    Or more generally speaking:
    To create a "logical table" consisting of multiple "physical tables"...hence the names. It's the backbone of the whole BI server concept and the way the rpd handles the requests.
    I.e.: how would you otherwise proceed for making an analyzable table from SAP, Teradata, Oracle and a flat file with no full change-access to all the data sources?

  • Multiple source databases

    Hello,
    I need to load data into dimensions and cube from multiple source databases. We have separate transaction databases for each country, but data must be loaded into common target schema. At the moment we have created mappings which loads data from one source database.
    What is the best way to populate, for example customers dimension from customers transaction tables (located in multiple source databases) if business identifiers can overlap?

    I would break this up into two pieces: the load from the source systems into the staging area, and then the load from the staging area into the target table, which you mentioned was a dimension.
    There is no reason you would have to use views or synonyms if you don't want to. You could approach this either with a SET operator, in this case a union, that brought all the sources together into the staging table. However, I would likely create multiple mappings for each source system. I would create a mapping for each table that you have to pull data from, and then create a separate process flow that controls all the tables being pulled from a particular source database. This allows you to schedule the extractions from the source systems independently of each other in case they need to run at different times. The end result of all of this will be a series of staging tables that are loaded from source tables from all the different locations. For each of the singular mappings, I would create a constant that defined the source of the data for this mapping, and load that constant into a column called SOURCE_SYSTEM, or perhaps COUNTRY, as you mentioned. Then, this SOURCE_SYSTEM/COUNTRY column + SOURCE_SYSTEM_ID would serve as the natural key.
    You can choose to persist these tables (as an ODS of sorts) or not... that is up to you and your requirements.
    Finally, I would create a single mapping that loads the final target table from the single staging table.
    Let me know if this doesn't make sense.
    Regards,
    Stewart Bryson

  • Compile multiple source files

    sorry, this is maybe a newbie question.
    but iI have a problem compiling an application that use multiple sources files
    for exemple
    the class A is in the file 1
    the class B is in the file 2
    class A uses an instance of the class B
    class B uses an instance of the class A
    so i'm unable to compile these files coz each one tells me he doesn't know about the other
    Is there a way to define prototypes of class or fonctions before their use like in C/C++?
    Or is there another way i didn"t pay attention
    thanks all

    This is a minimal explanation of packages. For a full explanation of packages and how to compile and run Java programs, see this page:
    http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/tooldocs/tools.html
    and read the Setting the Classpath and the How Classes are Found topics.
    Assume that your programs are part of a package named myapp, which is specified by this first line in each source file:
    package myapp;
    Also assume that directory (C:\java\work\) is listed in the CLASSPATH list of directories.
    Also assume that all your source files reside in this directory structure: C:\java\work\myapp\
    Then a statement to compile your source file named aProgram.java is:
    C:\java\work\>javac myapp\aProgram.java
    And a statement to run the program is:
    java myapp.aProgram
    (This can be issued from any directory, as Java will search for the program, starting the search from the classpath directories.)
    Explanation:
    Compiling
    A class is in a package if there is a package statement at the top of the class.
    The source file needs to be in a subdirectory structure. The subdirectory structure must match the package statement. The top subdirectory must be in the classpath directory.
    So, you generate a directory structure C:\java\work\myapp\ which is the [classpath directory + the package subdirectory structure], and place aProgram.java in it.
    Then from the classpath directory (C:\java\work\) use the command: javac myapp\aProgram.java
    Running
    Compiling creates a file, aProgram.class in the myapp directory.
    (The following is where people tend to get lost.)
    The correct name now, as far as java is concerned, is the combination of package name and class name: myapp.aProgram (note I omit the .class) If you don't use this name, java will complain that it can't find the class.
    To run a class that's NOT part of a package, you use the command: java SomeFile (assuming that SomeFile.class is in a directory that's listed in the classpath)
    To run a class that IS part of a package, you use the command java myapp.aProgram (Note that this is analogous to the command for a class not in a package, you just use the fully qualified name)

  • Best Practive - One mapping reading multiple source files

    I want to develop a solution for one single mapping reading multiple similar source files that are stored on different directories on my OWB server. I want to be able to determine on runtime of my mapping from what location to load the source file from.
    Example:
    Mapping: Load_test_data
    source file 1: c:\input\loc1\test.dat
    source file 1: c:\input\loc2\test.dat
    When I run the mapping I would like to use an input parameter specifying the location loc1 or loc2. I would also like to use this input parameter in my mapping to populate one column in my target table with the value of this input parameter. This design would make it possible to dynamically load source files from different directories and also being able to see after loading where the data came from.
    Questions:
    - Is there a way to create such a design
    - If not, what alternative would be appropriate.
    Thanks in advance for the feedback

    Thanks for the feedback. Unfortunately I do not use workflow together with my OWB.
    I now indeed specified the file name and file location in the configuration of my mapping. However I am not able to change then upon executing the mapping. Data file name and file location are empty and greyed out when I execute my mapping. It always takes the values I specified in the configuration of my mapping
    What I would like to do is specify the location upon runtime when I execute my mapping, but I don't know if this is possible. In addition I'd also want to use the data file location as an input parameter for one of the columns I populated in my target table.
    Then in the end I would be able to use one mapping and read multiple sources files from different locations and also be able to check in the end where the data was loaded from.
    Hope you can give me some more feedback on how to set this up in OWB.
    Many Thanks!

    can we configure streams capturing changes from multiple source databases and applying at single destination?yes you can, just should care about conflict resolution when multiple source tables are replicated into the same destination table.
    to configure table level replication is it mandatory to enable suppliment logging foe enrire database?no, you can have it for specific tables, which are replicated.
    is it possible to configure streams without setting GLOABAL_NAMES parameter to TURE.?yes, you can, but it's error-prone and will be every time pointed by Oracle Support in case of any streams problems.

    Hi,
    1. Create the Info Spoke and activate it
    2. Change it and go to transformation
    3. Check the box InfoSpoke with Transf. Using BAdI
    4. You are asked if you want to generate the spoke. Say yes & Simply set some texts and activate here, then return.
    5. You can now change the target structure. Simply create a Z structure with all the attributs & text field in it in the SE11 and enter it here.
    6. Double click on BAdI implementation & then double click again on "TRANSFORM" method of the implementation. It will take you to method  
    "IF_EX_OPENHUB_TRANSFORM~TRANSFORM"
    7. Write a code to select & fill the text field & map other filed with the attribute fields.
    Example:
    ZEMPLOYEE_ATTR_STRU - Target Structure for InfoSpoke EMPLOYEE_ATTR
    EMPLOYEE     /BI0/OIEMPLOYEE     NUMC     8     0     Employee
