Ordered hint question

Hi all, I have query, in ap_payselect app engine, which is taking a lot of time to execute. so i used ordered hint (/*+ ORDERED */).
My question is, will that ordered hint change the result? will we get same result with ordered hint as it was with out ordered hint.
Please help me.
Thank you.

The ORDERED hint won't change the result, that will remain the same. Only the explain plan (it is how Oracle will process the query behind the scene) and maybe the execution time could change (faster or slower).

Question on Ordered Hint

oracle 10g
hi all i attended an interview yesterday and i interviewer asked me a couple of questions
For which i dont have an exact answer. i even tried to search on web but i couldn't find the answer.
1. The ordered hint is used in conjunction with what? and why?.
i explained what ordered hint is but he is not happy.
2. performance of analytical function vs query with sub-query .
i voted for analytical function, interviewer said that analytical functions are slow.please help me to find answers.
thanks

thanks for the response.
why do we need to use other hints in conjunction with ordered hint for ordered hint to work.
why cant i say
Select /*+ordered*/
from table_a a , table_b b
where a.id = b.id ;
To expand on Dom's comment, you can say it, but if you're going to try to dictate details like this to the optimizer you should also tell it what join method you expect it to use, and what access methods you expect it to use, e.g.
/*+ ordered full(a) use_nl(b) index(b (id)) */Regards

Ordered hints in Oracle:

There's a fairly popular Ordered Hint example on the web as follows:
<CODE>
select /*+ ordered use_nl(bonus) parallel(e, 4) */
e.ename,
hiredate,
b.comm
from
emp e,
bonus b
where
e.ename = b.ename
</CODE>
I would like to know what the "parallel(e, 4)" clause does. Where does the "4" come from? What is "parallel" here?
I also have another question: If I have 5 tables--T_OREGON, T_UTAH, T_VIRGINIA, T_TEXAS, and T_OKLAHOMA--lined up in a join right behind a FROM, coming in at row counts of
T_OREGON: [a lot of rows; a lot more than T_UTAH]
T_UTAH: [smaller than T_OREGON] 40550 rows
T_VIRGINIA: 14 rows
T_TEXAS: 66 rows
T_OKLAHOMA: 8 rows
like so:
...from T_OREGON or, T_UTAH ut, T_VIRGINIA va, T_TEXAS tx, T_OKLAHOMA ok...
my question is, if an Ordered hint can be used here, is it that the smallest table (in this case T_OKLAHOMA) gets placed first in the join and the rest of the table ascension in the join doesn't matter? Or is it that T_OKLAHOMA gets placed first in the join, followed by T_VIRGINIA [at 14 rows], followed by T_TEXAS, T_UTAH, and finally T_OREGON?
Thank you for any help that you can provide.

It is why my other question involved the table order
behind a FROM keyword, (when employing an Ordered
hint).
Can anybody help with that question? Thanks again.With rule based optimizer order was important.
With cost based optimizer (optimizer mode one of the all_rows, first_rows, forst_rows_n) order is not important Oracle itself chooses the order how to join tables.
If you have gathered statistics leave CBO do his work. See more about optimizer here http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14211/optimops.htm
And if you have taken this citation out of http://articles.techrepublic.com.com/5100-22_11-1050199.html then there are at least following problems:
1) article is 4 years old
2) article doesn't say anything about downsides using this hint e.g. what if your data changes and order is not relevant anymore, quite high possibility that query is changed but hint forgotten to change, maintaining additional level of complexity where Oracle has invested many many resources to assist users enhancing CBO
3) and there is at least 1 fallacy in this article these sentences are wrong:
"When Oracle evaluates table join orders, it must consider every possible combination of tables. For example, a six-way table join has 720 (permutations of 6, or 6 * 5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1 = 720) possible ways that the tables can be joined together. This permutation issue becomes even more pronounced when you have more than 10 joined tables in a query: For a 15-way table join, there are over one trillion (1,307,674,368,000 to be exact) possible query permutations that must be evaluated."
(emphasis is mine - Gints)
CBO abandons each permutation as soon as the cost is higher than the smallest from previous steps. So in reality CBO is much smarter than article tries to explain.
If you really want to know how CBO works then I can only suggest to get book Cost based oracle fundamentals by Jonathan Lewis.

Does the Order of the tablesjoins in Where clause matter in ORDERED hint?

The ORDERED hint requests that the tables listed in the FROM clause of a SQL statement be joined in the order specified. But does the order of the join in "where" clause matters?
Will be there any performance difference between below query? The order of the table in the FROM clause remains the same, but there is a difference in the order of conditions in the WHERE clause
SELECT /*+ ORDERED */ a.fp_i f
FROn iw_owner.revenue_fpct b,
dw_owner.fp_dinn c,
dw_owner.nanaged_at_dinn a,
dw_owner.at_dinn_curr d,
iw_owner.na_progran e,
dw_owner.fp_dinn_curr f,
dw_owner.fpn_of_at_dinn g
WHERE a.nacc_dinn_i = b.nacc_dinn_i
AND b.fp_dinn_i = c.fp_dinn_i
AND a.acc_i = d.acc_i
AND a.acc_nacc_c = e.npn_pro_c
AND a.fp_i = f.fp_i
AND b.org_fpn_dinn_i = g.org_fpn_dinn_i(+)
AND c.fp_i IN ('JG 04')
AND b.dte_dinn_i BETWEEN '1-Apr-2011' and '30-Apr-2011'
SELECT /*+ ORDERED */ a.fp_i f
FROn iw_owner.revenue_fpct b,
dw_owner.fp_dinn c,
dw_owner.nanaged_at_dinn a,
dw_owner.at_dinn_curr d,
iw_owner.na_progran e,
dw_owner.fp_dinn_curr f,

Does it matter the order of first 2 tables?This question makes me really wonder. It's fairly easy to see how explain changes when using hints.
Your question indicates that you do not look at explain plans?
Then why are you asking about hints in the first place?
Using hints is something you do when you want to force a specific execution plan as part of some investigation, because you know something that the optimizer does no, or you have found a bug in the optimizert.
In all cases you know exactly what you are doing.
The /*+ ORDERED */ is all about you telling the optimizer to join the tables in the order you specified them in the from clause.
As to your original question, there exists a similar ORDERED_PREDICATES hint.

LEADING or ORDERED hint in OWB 10gR2

Hi,
How does one add a LEADING or ORDERED hint to a mapping in OWB 10g R2?
The usual way of adding a hint is to "Configure" the map and add the extraction or loading hint under the table (data source) operators. However, the hints in such a case are specific to table under consideration. A NO_INDEX or a PARALLEL hint can be applied under it.
However, a LEADING or a ORDERED does not necessarily depend on the table but is common to the entire SQL. Although OWB allows attaching the LEADING or ORDERED hint under Map Configure > Table Operators > [Table Name] > Hints > Extraction Hints, it does not attach the correct table aliases.
Has anyone encountered this problem before? If you've found a workaround, please share it.
Thanks, JD

Hi,
In OWB 10.2 it's often not easy to set hints. Often it's only possible to set them correctly using workarounds :-(
The most important is not where you define the hint in OWB but where OWB puts it in the generated code.
So if you want to have the LEADIND or ORDERING hint in your code you could define it at the level of the target table under:
Map Configure > Table Operators > [Target Table Name] > Hints > Loading Hints
Another way to do it would be to generate a dummy filter (1=1) in the mapping and then to define the hint for this filter.
For hints which are not related to a specific table I mostly used the trial-and-error method to find out where I have to define it in OWB.
Good luck

ORDERED hint in Oracle 11gR2

Do we have any difference in 11g with the way /*+ ORDERED */ hint works, compared to 10g? Will this hint cause a plan change in 11g, compared to its plan when used in 10g (assuming no other items contribute to a change of plan)?

Welcome to the forum.
Do you mean 10.1 or 10.2 and 11.1 or 11.2?
Are you aware of the existence of http://tahiti.oracle.com?

How to validate Hint question and Answer

Hi,
I want to validate the Password Hint Question and Answer on OID. OID hint answer is encryped, so how do I encrypt my plain text to compare or decrypt the hint answer.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Kathir

Hello Kathir,
This is an old post, but maybe you or someone can help.
We are able to retrieve the orclPasswordHint and orclPasswordHintAnswer, but I am not able to figure out what the password algorithm is to compare.
The Hint is stored as "{SHA}eJiAELiQzm9NITZIHzknh+xtYQY=" which should be the encoded value of "red". I assumed it was using a SHA based algorithm but every one that I try does not give the the correct answer.
Is there a built in compare function in OID available for this? Or is there any other way to compare/generate the correct hash?
Thanks,
Jamey

/* + ordered */ hint used in relational cube operator

We are using OWB 10.2.0.3 build a relational datamart. The mapping which loads the fact table has a joiner joining three tables, the result of the joiner goes into the cube operator. We realized that the code created by the cube operator contains the /* + ordered */ hint. This might make sense if you do not have any joiner outside the cube operator, but in our case the hint results into a sub-optimal explain plain.
Has anyone any idea how to get rid of this hint? What is the reason for this hint?
Thanks in advance, Maren

Hi,
if you open the configuration of the mapping, select cube operators, select your target cube, select table operators, selct your cube table -> what do you see in the property 'Loading hints'?

Detlef

so clearly the Oracle documentation does say that.
Either post in the correct forum, and explain your reasoning, or I can not help you further.

Why don't the questions as reported in forms match the order of questions on the pdf form used to collect the data?

I imported a PDF from for my survey. Then, I distributed it. People have completed it and the results have been submitted back to my FormsCentral account. The first two questions are text entry, then there are two 6 option multiple-choice questions before a 3 option multiple choice question. Why is it that in the report gives me results from four 6-option multiple choice questions before the 3-option question when there are only two? To make matters worse, the questions aren't coded with the text of the questions. They're coded cryptically, as are the responses. What the heck is going on and can I fix this?

Drew:
I'm having trouble deciphering what you wrote: "As I said, the initial order seems somewhat arbitrary from the user's perspective." As I work in the political arena, I'm parsing this out. It's either a brilliantly worded "you're screwed" statement, or there is some ambiguity and hope here. Let's deconstruct:
"initial order" Does this mean the order of my questions in the survey? There's nothing arbitrary about them. I know the order of my questions
"somewhat arbitrary" Does this mean there's actually some order to the way the results are being outputted? If so, how do I determine that order?
"from the user's perspective." Is there another perspective from which the actual (original/initial) ordering of the questions can be resurrected?
I'm not trying to badger. That's not my intent. You have a user here who is reading hope from your words, and I'm trying to distinguish between real hope and a nice way of saying "SOL."
So:
Answer One: There is some hope
Answer Two: SOL
After this, I can mark the question. Thank you.

Oracle to File, filename and order by question

Hello
I am writing a simple interface, source is an oracle table and destination is a flat file.
I have two questions:
1) the file name should be in the form allocation_ddmmyyyy.txt, where ddmmyyyy is the current date. which is the best way to accomplish this?
2) the file should be sorted with some criteria, which could be easily achieved with an order by clause in the source datastore, but looks this is not possible. How could I do this?

Hello.
My Idea follows
(1) You create ODI Variables,then you may set ODI Variables to resource Name of data-store.
detail Example (i) you create the ODI-Variable "FILENAME" to GLOBAL
detail Example (ii) you set #FILENAME to resource name of data-store.
detail Example (iii) startscen.sh SCENARIONAME VERSION CONTEXT GLOBAL.FILENAME=allocation_ddmmyyyy.txt
(in other method, invocation API, ODI Public Web Services via Oracle WebServiceProxy API/BPEL PartnerLink invoke)
(2) you customise IKM. you add "order by criteria" to the command "Insert new rows" 's SQL.
If criteria is not const, you should use ODI Variables or Java Variables.
othewise,you may use harcord literal.
Please challenge my idea.

Production Order Settlement Question

Hi all,
When I create a production order and look up the material costs associated with this order I see
Raw material 1          10.00
Raw material 2          15.00
Raw material 3            5.00
Finished product 1     27.00 -
                                     3.00
Proceeding further, I do GI to Order and finish the production and do GR to Order... now looking at the accounting documents, I can see the Accounting Doc for GI to Order showing 30.00 and Accounting Doc for GR to Order showing 27.00
Now what happens to the 3.00?
where does this amount get settled to?
If I want the finished product to be 30.00 (10.0015.005.00) and not 27.00 (moving average price from material master) what should I do?
Thanks,
Kanagaraj C S

Hi all,
Thanks for all your replies... I started looking into replies and did some analysis... changing the Moving Average Price (V) to Standard Price (V) will change the dynamics of the material cost attributes and may have impact on the earlier determined business needs. Hence I didn't want to experiment with it. Hence I procceded to the my 2nd part of the question -
If I want the finished product to be 30.00 (10.0015.005.00) and not 27.00 (moving average price from material master) what should I do?
Playing around with the system helped me to calculate the finished product price to 30.00 (10.0015.005.00) and not 27.00 (moving average price from material master) for the same finished product. Here are the steps -
Tcode - OKK4
Select "007" - Production order - actual and goto details of this Valuation Production order - actual. Then select "Valuation with Additive Component Split" as Priority 1. Also make sure in you production order (CO01) under "Control data" in CstgVariantActl to be PPP2.
These steps will help the finished product to take the calculated price from the underlaying components instead of the moving average price from the material master.
Thanks for all the contribution,

Time series and Order series questions

Hi Guys - Need some help in understanding/Visualizing some basic APO concepts. I do not want to move further without understanding these concepts completely. I did read sap help and couple of apo books but none gave me a complete understanding of this very basic concept.
1. Data is stored in livecache in 3 different ways. time series, order series and atp time series. for now I am concentrating on just time series and order series. Can some one help me understand with an example how data is stored in time series and how it is stored in order series? I read that data which is not order related is called time series data and which is order related is called order series data.
My query is even in DP time series data, data is stored with respect to product and location that is transferred to snp. In SNP too data is processed with respect to product and location. so what is the difference in time series data and order series data?
2. what are time series key figures and what are order series key figures? I read safety stock for example is a time series keyfigure. why is it not a order series key figure? what makes a keyfigure time series or order series? can some one xplain this in detail with an example or numbers?
3. there is a stock category group in snp tab of location master LOC3. Stock category should be product related right? how is this related to location and what does this field mean in location master
Thanks a lot for your help in advance. Please let me know if I am not clear in any of the questions.

Hi,
Time series: Data is stored in buckets with no reference to orders.( If you place the mouse on time series data and right click for
                     display details , you will not find any information.
                      Suitable for tactical planing and aggregated planning. Usually in demand planning.
Pre requisite: 1. You need to create time series objects for the planning area.
                       2. When creating planning area you should not make any entries for the Key figure in the field Info Cube, category
                           and category group.
                       3. When creating planning area any entry you made in the field Key figure semantics with prefixed with TS.
                           (Optional entry)
Order series: Data is stored in buckets with reference to orders.( If you place the cursor on the order series data and right click
                      the mouse for display details , you will find information of order details.)
                     Useful for operative planning.
                     *You will have real time integration with R3.
Pre requisite: 1. You need to create time series objects for the planning area.( though you are creating Order series)
                      2.When creating a planning area specify a category or category group or enter a key figure semantics with prefix
                        LC.
                     3. When creating planning area you should not make an entry for the key figure in the field Info cube.
Thanks,

The /*+ ordered */ hint

This query runs orders of magnitude faster without the hint. The hint causes a merge cartesian join in the explain plan and raises the cost hugely.
I thought the hint was supposed to improve performance. What gives? I am using 11g v2.02
Thanks,
David
select /*+ ordered */
a.ull,
min(b.geo_id),
'2' maskflag
from
POLY_TABLE b,
PNT_TABLE a
where
a.ULL in (select ULL from PNT_TABLE minus select ULL from PIP_TABLE) and
sdo_touch(a.geom, b.geom) = 'TRUE'
group by
a.ull ;
