Need help to implement a small data warehouse or datamart

Hi all,
we want to improve our reporting activities, we have 3 production and relational oracle databases and we want to elaborate 1 database as reporting database with historized and aggregated data responding to our reporting needs.
The database we are using are oracle database 10g.
actually we still are doing query to retrieve informations from databases for reporting purpose, but fropm inetrnet search i know that we can implement datamart or datawarehouse to group all aggregated information for reporting.
The information i need are: is there a tools in Oracle for Datawarehousing, Is Oracle Warehouse Builder is the right tools as the sources of our data are all from Oracle database and some flat files.
Could yo advise what i'm going to use for that kind of reporting needs, can i use Oracle warehosue builder to develop ETL ...
Do i need license to use Oracle Warehose Builder
Thanks,

As simple answer to all your questions: YES
Yes, Oracle warehouse builder could be a tool to use.
Yes, Orace warehouse builder needs a license.
Besides that you also need a license for that extra Database.
if you already have that, and you have the queries with which you now retrieve data, you can always choose the cheap way and build materialized views with these queries.
Keep in mind however that a materialized view ( of snapshot ) does not support inline selects.

NEED HELP TO SET UP SMALL NETWORK - WIRELESS SIGNAL FROM NOVATEL U760 USB

Hello -
I need help setting up a small network in my new home in Florida, which has no wired broadband capability - not cable, not dsl. My options are satellite (which I'd like to avoid) or wireless broadband via Millenicom (or now Virgin Mobile) using their Novatel U760 USB stick.
Here are the network components - someone please tell me how to set this up:
PC #1 (has wireless card, but I've connected it by ethernet to the router)
PC #2 (no wireless card; connected via ethernet to router)
MACBOOK, 1 1/2 years old (2.1 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 4 gigs RAM), running OS 10.58, connected wirelessly to router.
AIRPORT EXTREME BASE STATION, Model A1143.
I'm not thrilled about using a wireless 3G signal as my primary one, (sprint network, claims 600 - 1400 kbps speed), but it costs 1/2 to 1/3 of what a slightly faster satellite signal would.
I have not ordered this service yet. Before I do, I'd like a clear understanding that I can, in fact, set up my simple network, which I'd probably do the same as it's now configured with cable broadband - both PC's plug via
ethernet into the Airport Extreme router, the MacBook connects wirelessly - AND,
my question is this:
Can I plug the wireless card - a Novatel U760 USB-stick device - straight into that USB slot in the Airport Extreme base station and will it automatically recognize that device?
Or, do I have to plug it into the MacBook and somehow share that wireless signal between the 2 PC's (only 1 of which has a wireless card, so I'd have to get a card for PC #2)?
And help anyone can provide will be much appreciated!
Thanks,
Em

from the Airport FAQ #14:
"Question: Can I connect my Soundsticks or other USB speakers to AirPort Express?
Answer: No. The USB port is for connecting a printer, not for other devices."
Im assuming other devices include USB modems.
So, I would say your cheaper route would be to get a second wireless card and just share your internet connection from one of your PC.

Need help in laoding flat file data, which has \r at the end of a string

Hi There,
Need help in loading flat file data, which has \r at the end of a string.
I have a flat file with three columns. In the data, at the end of second column it has \r. So because of this the control is going to the beginning of next line. And the rest of the line is loading into the next line.
Can someone pls help me to remove escape character \r from the data?
thanks,

Have you looked into the sed linux command? here are some details:
When working with txt files or with the shell in general it is sometimes necessary to replace certain chars in existing files. In that cases sed can come in handy:
1 sed -i 's/foo/bar/g' FILENAME
The -i option makes sure that the changes are saved in the new file – in case you are not sure that sed will work as you expect it you should use it without the option but provide an output filename. The s is for search, the foo is the pattern you are searching the file for, bar is the replacement string and the g flag makes sure that all hits on each line are replaced, not just the first one.
If you have to replace special characters like a dot or a comma, they have to be entered with a backslash to make clear that you mean the chars, not some control command:
1 sed -i 's/./,/g' *txt
Sed should be available on every standard installation of any distribution. At lesat on Fedora it is even required by core system parts like udev.
If this helps, mark as correct or helpful.

Need help! Can't validate date overlaps for a tabular column

Hello all,
The validation I created to validate whether new or updates rows does not overlap with any records in the table isn't working.
The columns are StartDt and EndDt
Validation Type: NOT EXISTS
Validation expresion:
select 1
    from sample S
    WHERE S.STARTDT BETWEEN :STARTDT AND :ENDDT
OR(S.ENDDT BETWEEN :STARTDT AND :ENDDT)
or (S.STARTDT <= :STARTDT and S.ENDDT >= :ENDDT)
or (:STARTDT <= S.STARTDT and :ENDDT >= S.ENDDT)
Error Message:
Times overlap
When Buttons pressed
-Select Button-
The validation works if a new row or updated row overlaps any existing start and end date records but it doesn't work if I update startdate and end date rows that doesn't overlap existing date times
Example:
TABLE DISPLAYS THE FOLLOWING RECORDS
NAME                   START DATE                      END DATE
TEST                    1/1/2012                               12/31/2012
If I update the rows to the following values, I receive an error message (although those values don't overlap any records in the table)
NAME                   START DATE                      END DATE
TEST                    6/1/2012                               10/30/2012
Any ideas? Do I need to change my code?

Logic for date range overlap testing only requires two conditions in the WHERE clause:
ORACLE-BASE - Overlapping Date Ranges
WHERE S.STARTDT <= :ENDDT AND S.ENDDT >= :STARTDT -- TRUE for ranges that overlap
It looks a little odd, but, if you scribble out a 'logic table', it makes sense.
Condition
A.start <= B.end
A.end >= B.start
A__A B--B
true
false
A__B=A--B

Why do we need SSIS and star schema of Data Warehouse?

If SSAS in MOLAP mode stores data, what is the application of SSIS and why do we need a Data Warehouse and the ETL process of SSIS?
I have a SQL Server OLTP database. I am using SSIS to transfer my SQL Server data from OLTP database to a Data Warehouse database that contains fact and dimension tables.
After that I want to create cubes using SSAS form Data Warehouse data.
I know that MOLAP stores data. Do I need any Data warehouse with Fact and Dimension tables?
Is not it better to avoid creating Data warehouse and create cubes directly from OLTP database?

Another thing to note is data stored in transactional system may not always be in end user consumable format for ex. we may use bit fields/flags to represent some details in OLTP as storage required ius minimum but presenting them as is would not make any
sense to user as they would not know what each bit value represents. In such cases we apply some transformations and convert data into useful information for users to understand. This is also in the warehouse so that information in warehouse can directly be
used for reporting. Also in many cases the report will merge data from multiple source systems so merging it on the fly in report would be tedious and would have hit on report server. In comparison bringing them onto common layer (warehouse) and prebuilding
aggregates would be benefitial for the report performance.
I think (not sure) we join tables in SSAS queries and calculate aggregations in it.
I think SSAS stores these values and joined tables and we do not need to evaluates those values again and this behavior is like a Data Warehouse.
Is not it?
So if I do not need historical data, Can I avoid creating Data Warehouse?
On the backend SSAS uses queries only to extract the data
B/w I was not explaining on SSAS. I was explaining on what happens inside datawarehouse which is a relational database by itself. SSAS is used to built cube (OLAP structures) on top of datawarehouse. star schema is easier for defining relationships
and buidling aggregations inside SSAS as its simple and requires minimal lookups to be performed. Also data would be held at lowest granularity level which can easily be aggregated to required levels inside OLAP cubes. Cube processing is very resource
intensive and using OLTP system would really have a huge impact on processing performance as its nnot denormalized and also doing tranformation etc on the fly adds up to complexity. Precreating a layer (data warehouse) having data in required format would
make cube processing easier and simpler as it has to just cross join tables and aggregate data based on relationships defined and level needed inside the cube.

Gurus...Need help....extract data from BKPF header table and BSEG line item

Gurus,
I have to write the logic to fetch data from bkpf and bseg. Need help on how can i do that..
I have to get bukrs belnr gjahr ldgrp from BKPF for a given date and company code. For all these documents, then i have to get the line items from BSEG if the ldgrp is I1 or SPACE.
If the ldgrp is not I1 or SPACE then i have to fetch the records from BSEG_ADD and then generate a ALV report with all the data including the data that was fetched from BKPF.
So, it wil be a combined ALV report that displays header as well as LINE item data together...
Can u please help me with the code...I am not sure how can everything go all together in one internal table....Becoz once its there in one table then only a ALV list can be generated.......
Cheers:
Sam

hi Sam, this may be of some similar thing.
Use this program, I got this prog from a source and we added a small conditional check in the program which checks document numbers in BSEG and also comapres in BKPF and sees if the output from BSEG falls under the posting data range specified in the initial selection.
Now just so you know, this output is kinda messed up, so you will have to play with it in Excel to extract the document numbers, if that is what you want.

Need help on: Automation of Daily Data Load

Hi all,
We need to start our Daily Data load from DAC by Manually. So right now my client has asked us to do Automation of Daily Data Load.
Starting the Daily Data Load Manually(DAC) Process: First we have to check whether the ASCP Plans updated or not
Right now we are checking whether the plans got updated or not, so for this we are using following query
SELECT LTrim(RTrim (compile_designator)),data_completion_date,TO_CHAR(data_completion_date ,'DD-MON-YYYY HH24:MI:SS') FROM apps.msc_plans
WHERE LTrim(RTrim (compile_designator))
in( 'Plan01,'Plan02','Plan03','Paln04') ORDER BY 2 desc
from this query we will able to see whether all the plans got updated or not. From all the Four Plans, two plans will get updated as of Sysdate(mm/dd/yyy) ,Timestamp(hh:mm:ss)(for example i.e. Plan01 08/25/2011 11:20:08 PM, Plan02 08/25/2011 11:45:06 PM) and rest two plans get updated on Sysdate+1(mm/dd/yyy), Timestamp(hh:mm:ss)(for example i.e. Plan03 08/26/2011 12:20:05 AM, Plan04 08/26/2011 12:45:08 AM)
So after checking the plans , we start the Daily Load in DAC manually.
May I know how should I convert my above sql query which I am using for checking the plans updated or not in informatica, so as to automate the Daily Load in informatica level..
Need help.

You cannot replicate what is done with DAC at Informatica level. DAC is a separate Oracle product that orchestrates and manages the ETL load (including Index management, etc). The reason Oracle developed DAC is because it allows you to manage a large scale DW load for a large ERP system. As suggested, you can invoke the DAC execution plan via a command but you cannot replicate everything the DAC does at Informatica level. If this helps, please mark as helpful.

Need help with code for adding dates to form

Hello forum goers
I'm new to making forms and figured out how to auto add the date, however I need the form to change the date for every copy made.
For example today is 06/08/2012 if I print 10 copies of the form it will output 10 pages ranging from 06/08/2012 to 06/17/2012. If code exists to do this I would be very gratefull to whoever helps, I also wouldn't mind if that is not possible for manually inputing the start / end dates.
Currently I print 15-30 copies of the form and hand write each of the dates but I'm just getting to busy to do that. I also cannot print one a day it must be in batches.
Thanks in advanced.

What you are asking for is more complex than just setting the current date. Each time the form prints it has to know that it has to change the date. I would suggest doing this.
First, setup a document level script to set the date to the current date. I suspect that you have already done this?
Next, Create a "DidPrint" document action to increment the date. To do this the script will need to scan the current text value of the date, add one day to it, and then reformat it. You'll find information on this type of scripting in these articles:
http://acrobatusers.com/tutorials/working-with-date-and-time-in-acrobat-javascr

ipt-part-2
http://acrobatusers.com/tutorials/working-with-date-and-time-in-acrobat-javascr
ipt-part-3
Since the increment happenes in the Did Print you will need to print each copy individually. If you enter 10 copies in the print dialog it won't work. You have to print one at a time. You can automate this activity with a console script.
One of the advantages of incrementing in the DidPrint is that you can also manually enter a date and it will increment from there.

[Urgent] Need help calculating difference between two dates

I'm trying to write a code to display the current day and time, then accept two dates from the user and display the difference between the two dates. To display the current date and time, I've used the SimpleDateFormatter library but I'm having difficulty calculating the difference between two dates. Could someone please help me with this?
Below is my code so far

          Date todaysDate = new Date();
          SimpleDateFormat formatter = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MMM-dd HH:mm:ss");
          String formattedDate = formatter.format(todaysDate);
          System.out.println("Today's date and time is: "+formattedDate);
     public void calculateDifference(Date startDate, Date endDate)
          /* This is whre i need help! */
     public static void main(String[] args)
          DateFormatter df = new DateFormatter();
          Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);

          System.out.println("Please enter a date: ");
          String date1 = sc.next();
          System.out.println("Please enter another date: ");
          String date2 = sc.next();
}The methods displayNow() and calculateDifference(Date startDate, Date endDate) are essential and cannot be skipped out.

Need help masking or hiding sensitive data in LDAP entries.

I am currently working on a schema for holding user account information
in LDAP. We are storing user SSN information as part of the custom
schema that we have created and need help hiding that data from people
who may be browsing the directory, either using the console or other
means. The end result we are trying to achieve is the same as the way
that the userPassword attribute is stored in the directory. When viewed
it appears as all asterisks but it can still be passed and read normally
elsewhere. If anyone has any information on how to do this it would be
greatly appreciated.

Read the section in the manual on access control. Personally, if you have an
SQL database that contains information about individuals as well, you might
want to consider putting the SSNs in there and not in the directory for
security reasons. i.e. I just read a CERT advisory about buffer overflows in
the Beta version of iPlanet 5.0 (supposed to be fixed in the release
version) which basically means full system compromise. Personally, I would
not recommend putting SSNs in the directory at all if the directory is
accessible over the Internet. There's always security holes here and there
and I doubt that you want to leak this kind of information onto the
Internet.

Need help regarding implementing SSAS solution using microsoft decision trees algorithm

Hi All,
I am new to SSAS and Data Mining techniques. I dnt have a good knowledge about data mining in SSAS. I have a requirement regarding predictive analysis and want to check whether i can implement SSAS for it.
I have two tables namely Tree and Node. The Tree table has the columns namely NodeID, ParentID and Level. The ParentID in the tree table represents a node in the node table and at the same time the nodeid in the tree table also represents the nodeid in the
node table.
If you run the below query, it will list out all the possibilities of getting the nodename 'CTRYIMPACT - High - PRODIMPACT - Low - Question 6'
select p.*
from Node n, Tree t, Node p
where n.NodeName='CTRYIMPACT - High - PRODIMPACT - Low - Question 6'
and n.NodeId = t.NodeId
and t.ParentId = p.NodeId
I want to predict the various nodenames that are possible by inputting a NodeID using analysis services. If this is done, then i can implement it in my project.
I went over this link to know about implementing decision tress but, they have used only a single table in the example. Since I have two tables i am struck in the middle. And also they have not specified clearly of what they need to achieve. They have just
stated that on changing the play the value changes.
http://www.mssqltips.com/sqlservertip/2965/classic-machine-learning-example-in-sql-server-analysis-services/
Can anyone help me with this?
Below is the link for data containing the values for the Node and Tree table.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/hpzooa039zbtkk8/analysis_services_data.xlsx?dl=0
Thanks you and Kind Regards, Karthik Venkatraman

Hi Karthink,
Acording to your description, you need to predict the various nodenames that are possible by inputting a NodeID using analysis services, right?
In your scenario, in order to make prediction in Data Mining Model, we would create a prediction query. Before we can create a prediction query, we need to build a Data Mining Model. Please refer to the links below to see the detail infomaton.

Are you getting this symptom in your system? and you want to apply the correction??
After applying the correction, if the prerequisite mentioned in note 530932 is not met during sending mail.. then
simply the link will not be attached. but mail will be sent.
you have to apply the correction of the note using SNOTE or manually apply note by download/upload.
For how to apply a note using SNOTE you can follow the help guide

Need help with RANK() on NULL data

Hi All
I am using Oracle 10g and running a query with RANK(), but it is not returning a desired output. Pleas HELP!!
I have a STATUS table that shows the history of order status.. I have a requirement to display the order and the last status date (max). If there is any NULL date for an order then show NULL.
STATUS
ORD_NO | STAT | DT
1 | Open |
1 | Pending |
2 | Open |
2 | Pending |
3 | Open |1/1/2009
3 | Pending |1/6/2009
3 | Close |
4 | Open |3/2/2009
4 | Close |3/4/2009
Result should be (max date for each ORD_NO otherwise NULL):
ORD_NO |DT
1 |
2 |
3 |
4 |3/4/2009
CREATE TABLE Status (ORD_NO NUMBER, STAT VARCHAR2(10), DT DATE);
INSERT INTO Status VALUES(1, 'Open', NULL);
INSERT INTO Status VALUES(1, 'Pending', NULL);
INSERT INTO Status VALUES(2, 'Open', NULL);
INSERT INTO Status VALUES(2, 'Pending',NULL);
INSERT INTO Status VALUES(3, 'Open', '1 JAN 2009');
INSERT INTO Status VALUES(3,'Pending', '6 JAN 2009');
INSERT INTO Status VALUES(3, 'Close', NULL);
INSERT INTO Status VALUES(4, 'Open', '2 MAR 2009');
INSERT INTO Status VALUES(4, 'Close', '4 MAR 2009');
COMMIT;
I tried using RANK function to rank all the orders by date. So used ORDER BY cluse on date in descending order thinking that the null dates would be on top and will be grouped together by each ORD_NO.
SELECT ORD_NO, DT, RANK() OVER (PARTITION BY ORD_NO ORDER BY DT DESC)
FROM Status;
...but the result was something..
ORD_NO |DT |RANKING
*1 | | 1*
*1 | | 1*
*2 | | 1*
*2 | | 1*3 | | 1
3 |1/6/2009 | 2
3 |1/1/2009 | 3
4 |3/4/2009 | 1
4 |3/2/2009 | 2
I am not sure why didn't the first two ORD_NOs didn't group together and why ranking of 1 was assigned to them. I was assuming something like:
ORD_NO |DT |RANKING
*1 | | 1*
*1 | | 2*
*2 | | 1*
*2 | | 1*
3 | | 1
3 |1/6/2009 | 2
3 |1/1/2009 | 3
4 |3/4/2009 | 1
4 |3/2/2009 | 2
Please guide me if I am missing something here?
Regards
Sri

Hi,
If i well understood, you don't need rank
SELECT   ord_no, MAX (dt)KEEP (DENSE_RANK LAST ORDER BY dt) dt
    FROM status
GROUP BY ord_no
SQL> select * from status;
    ORD_NO STAT       DT
         1 Open
         1 Pending
         2 Open
         2 Pending
         3 Open       2009-01-01
         3 Pending    2009-01-06
         3 Close
         4 Open       2009-03-02
         4 Close      2009-03-04
9 ligne(s) sélectionnée(s).
SQL> SELECT   ord_no, MAX (dt)KEEP (DENSE_RANK LAST ORDER BY dt) dt
2      FROM status
3 GROUP BY ord_no;
    ORD_NO DT

         2
