OWB Outer Join Error

I am working with OWB 10gR2. My source is Oracle 8i. My target db is 10g.
Here is the code in the joiner expression window:
APS_CUSTOMER.ID = APS_PROF_MEMBER.ID (+)
AND APS_CUSTOMER.SEGMENT_ID = APS_CUSTOMER_SEGMENT.SEGMENT_ID (+)
AND APS_CUSTOMER.ADDR_ID = APS_CUST_ADDR.ADDR_ID (+)
AND APS_CUSTOMER.ETHNICITY_ID = APS_ETHNICITY.ETHNICITY_ID (+)
AND APS_CUSTOMER.ID = APS_CUSTOMER_SPECIALTY.ID (+)
AND APS_CUSTOMER_SPECIALTY.SPECIALTY_ID = APS_SPECIALTY.SPECIALTY_ID (+)
AND APS_MEMBER_CLASSIFICATION.CLASSIFICATION_ID = APS_CLASSIFICATION.CLASSIFICATION_ID (+)
AND APS_CUSTOMER.ID = APS_MEMBER_CLASSIFICATION.ID (+)
AND APS_CUSTOMER.ID = DPS_USER_ROLES.USER_ID
AND DPS_USER_ROLES.ATG_ROLE = DPS_ROLE.ROLE_ID
AND DPS_USER_ROLES.ATG_ROLE = '1800003'
AND (APS_PROF_MEMBER.DEGREES IS NOT NULL OR
APS_MEMBER_CLASSIFICATION.CLASSIFICATION_ID IS NOT NULL OR
APS_CUSTOMER_SPECIALTY.SPECIALTY_ID IS NOT NULL)
I am getting the following error:
VLD-1512: Outer join marker(+) can only be applied to column names. It cannot be applied to more complex expressions.
I have tried to remove the last 4 rows of the join condition to no avail. Can someone please provide some guidance. Thanks.

Next problem. The mapping "works", but is not giving me the correct results.
I had previously written the query in TOAD and know the results are correct. The joiner code is almost exactly the same as the SQL query, but the input order is not the same as the table order in the query. Does the order of the input groups in the joiner matter that much? I think I remember reading that in the OWB help.
Thanks.

  • OUTER JOIN -- Error: ORA-01417  (a table may be outer joined to at most one

    Hi there,
    I have a rather simple task: retrieve all the records in a table, for agiven domain p_domain_id (input parameter). The problem is that there are about 6 FKs in the table, and I need the names (strings) corresponding to those FKs (from other tables). Unfortunately, some of the FKs are NULL, so in '=' I loose records. Without the last 2 lines in WHERE clause, I get the correct result. With d2 in place (and without the "(+)" ) I loose 2 records. With the d3 (and also without "(+)"), I do not get any record.
    With the "(+)", the code compiles but I get the run time error ORA-01417
    NOTE: I put the "+" within parentheses, in order to show it like a text in this editor.
    What's an elegant solution to this?

  • OWB does not allow full outer join

    I got following error (twice) while validating my mapping: "VLD-1506: Invalid Expression: Mixing full and partial outer joins in one mapping is not supported".
    I have following join conditions in my mapping:
    1) INGRP1.DISTRICT_ID = INGRP2.DISTRICT_ID And INGRP1.CHARGE_PERIOD_ID = INGRP2.CHARGE_PERIOD_ID And INGRP1.UTL_ID = INGRP2.UTL_ID
    2) The same
    3) INGRP1.CHARGE_PERIOD_ID (+) = INGRP2.CHARGE_PERIOD_ID (+) And
    INGRP1.DISTRICT_ID (+) = INGRP2.DISTRICT_ID (+) And
    INGRP1.PROVIDER# (+) = INGRP2.PROVIDER# (+)
    I suppose there is not any partial joins here. I tried to make first and second conditions with full outer joins too:
    INGRP1.DISTRICT_ID (+) = INGRP2.DISTRICT_ID (+) And
    INGRP1.CHARGE_PERIOD_ID (+) = INGRP2.CHARGE_PERIOD_ID (+) And
    INGRP1.UTL_ID (+) = INGRP2.UTL_ID (+) And
    INGRP1.DISTRICT_ID IS NOT NULL And
    INGRP2.DISTRICT_ID IS NOT NULL
    If I do this, validation reports the same error, but six times instead of twice.
    If I remove outer joins OWB generates following mapping statement:

    What does it mean? Is JOINER's full outer join is incompatible with KEY LOOKUP operator and KL should be replaced with WB_LOOKUP_NUM?

    Sanders,
    Key lookup always does a partial outer join. When the full outer join and partial outer join conditions are put together, there is no available syntax to facilitate it.
    The way to this to generate the join operator (with full outer join) first in a subquery, then generate the key lookup as the outer query. Or the other way around, first the key lookup then the full outer join. The important part is that the key lookup can't be merged into the FROM-list.
    So there are two workarounds. One is what you already pointed out, using WB_LOOKUP_NUM.
    The other is to explicitly spell out the key lookup logic in the mapping by introducing a join with the lookup table, like this.
    Change
    Table1
    .......... Join (w/ foj cond.) ---> KeyLookup
    Table2
    to
    Table1
    .......... Join (w/ foj cond)
    Table2 ........................ Join (w/ poj cond.) ---> Lookup table

  • Right Outer Join in OWB

    Hi,
    I am trying to do a right outer join between 2 tables say a and b, and I specify the following condition in the joiner as follows, say
    a.deptno(+) = b.deptono. But it throws an error during deployment as follows
    PL/SQL: ORA-25156: old style outer join (+) cannot be used with ANSI joins.
    I am using OWB Release 10.2(Paris)
    Your help would be appreciated.
    regards,

    Hi
    Check the generated code from the mapping, or the internediate result in the mappings output group.
    Maybe you should use new oter join definitions:

    Actually , spoke a little too soon, my query now seems to be outputting duplicates when the value is found on both sides of the union, my group by clause doesnt seem to be eliminating them like it usually does.
    My SELECT code now reads
    <cfquery dbtype="query" name="endQry">
    SELECT name,nameRcd,mediumImage, COUNT(sMessage) AS comments
    FROM qry, returnQry3
    WHERE qry.name = returnQry3.sNameTrack
    GROUP BY name,nameRcd,mediumImage
    UNION
    SELECT name,nameRcd,mediumImage, 0 AS comments
    FROM qry
    WHERE qry.name NOT IN (<cfqueryparam
    value="#returnQry3.sNameTrack#"
    cfsqltype="cf_sql_varchar"
    list="yes"
    />)
    GROUP BY name,nameRcd,mediumImage
    ORDER BY name DESC
    </cfquery>
    and my ouput...is producing duplicates
    <cfoutput query="rc.qryTopTracks" group="name">
    #rc.qryTopTracks.name#
    </cfoutput>
    Would you have any idea of how to eliminate them here?  Thanks

  • How to Specify Left Outer Join in OWB

    group by s.school_id
    order by s.school_id
    I get 1706 records. In OWB I get 1656 records.
    In OWB I use a JOIN for the three tables, then an expression for the decode lines and sort and then the final table. In the SQL above, if the second left outer join is removed I get 1656 records?
    Ho do you force OWB to produce 1706 records?

    You have to use the (+) notation.
    e.g.
    table1.column1 (+) = table2.column1
    Also, you can do a full-outer-join using table1.column1 (+) = table2.column1 (+) even though this is not legal SQL*Plus syntax.

  • While using the Old syntax of outer join i encountered Ora-01719 error .

    This is quite strange when i used the Old way of using Outer Joins(+), i encountered the Ora-01719 error saying Outer Joins not allowed in Or and IN operator.Whereas when i use the ANSI sql i query gets executed without any error.Any idea what might be the reason..is it that i myself is making mistake.

Some things are simply not allowed with the "+" outer-join syntax.
    There are work-arounds, but they are harder to code and slower to run than simply using ANSI syntax.
    I recommend always using ANSI syntax, especially for outer joins.

  • Oracle outer join on  multiple tables throws error

    Hi ,
    We are using ansi joins with outer joins on multiple tables in oracle 9i.
    Now these queries have to be used in Oracle8i.
    Since Oracle8i does not support ansi sql we are replacing the ansi sql queries with the oracle joins.
    On trying the same we found that the following query
    select *from tab1 a, tab2 b, tab3 c where a.c1 = b.col1(+) and c.c2 = b.col2 (+)
    throws the error
    ORA-01417: a table may be outer joined to at most one other table.
    Is there a way to simulate this query without using the outer joins on multiple tables?
    thanks

    Try writing the query in this form:
    select * from
    (select t1.col1, t1.col2
    from schema.table1 t1, schema.table2 t2
    where t1.col1 = t2.col1(+)) t4,
    schema.table3 t3 where t4.col2 = t3.col2(+)
    In the subquery, you will have to list all the columns you want to see, and you will need to provide unique aliases for any columns with duplicate names. I tested this on 9i, and don't have an 8i system to work with, so I hope this helps.

    So, I have a complex VO that includes two updatable entities. One of these is an outer join. It's an adjustment table which has a 0-1 relation with travel Request table that has an estimated amount.
    I only want a record in this adjustement table when there's a change.
    HOWEVER, if I make a change on the screen to the fields in my other entity, ADF wants to insert into the outer join table and I get an error because the field is null and it's required.
    So, how do I keep ADF from inserting a row into the outer join but still update the other entity?
    I'm using JDev 11.1.1.3.0
    Thanks,
    Jet

    Thanks for the feedback. I had to remember to go back and add it to the App Module and juggle the bindings a bit, but I got it sorted out so it doesn't error
    However when I do that and
    if there is no row
    cuz there hasn't been an adjustment yet
    it doesn't give me a field to enter one in. It just prints the label with nothing next to it??????????????????
    if I already put a row in then it displays properly and I can change it.
    How do I make it give me a field so I can insert a row when required?

  • Error in making left outer join to a nested query

    i am writing this query getting error here i am using nested query with that i am making join it is giving error
    SQL
    SELECT
    * FROM IVItem INNER JOIN
    IVPackSize_Mst ON IVItem.PackSizeID = IVPackSize_Mst.Id
    left outer join IvItemGenericLink on IvItemGenericLink.itemID=IVItem.Id

    IvItemGenericLink where ItemID=IVItem.Id and rownum <=1
    )x
    and x on IvItemGenericLink.GenericId=x.GenericId;
    Error report:
    SQL Error: ORA-00936: missing expression
    00936. 00000 - "missing expression"
    *Cause:   
    *Action:
    give me and suggestion

    i am using left outer join at virtual table say x your gave me its equivalent
    EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM IvItemGenericLink G
    WHERE G.ITEMID =V.ID
    AND G.GenericId = L.GenericId)-----its i guess inner join
    i am not confirmed that why iam asking this i guess i have to use this
    as i use keyword inner join for inner join and for left join i use
    left outer join
    EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM IvItemGenericLink G
    WHERE G.ITEMID =V.ID
    AND G.GenericId(+) = L.GenericId)-----its i guess left outer join
    left outer join
    Select GenericId from
    IvItemGenericLink where ItemID=IVItem.Id and rownum <=1
    )*x*
    IvItemGenericLink.GenericId=x.GenericId
    -------------------Statement U Gave in this--------------------------------------------------------------------------
    SELECT *
    FROM IVITEM V, IVPACKSIZE_MST M , IVITEMGENERICLINK L,
    WHERE V.PACKSIZEID = M.ID

    AND EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM IvItemGenericLink G
    WHERE G.ITEMID =V.ID
    AND G.GenericId = L.GenericId)
    -------------------Statement U Gave in this--------------------------------------------------------------------------
    is this equivalent to left outer join
    *AND EXISTS (
    SELECT 1 FROM IvItemGenericLink G*
    WHERE G.ITEMID =V.ID
    *AND G.GenericId = L.GenericId
    please tell me this in this regard

  • Internal Assertion Error while using outer join

    Hi-
    Has anyone experienced this error before: State: HY000. Code: 397397248. [NQODBC] [SQL_STATE: HY000] [nQSError: 10058] A general error has occurred. [nQSError: 46036] Internal Assertion: Condition !pConjunct->IsAndCond(), file server/Query/Optimizer/Request/Src/SQORToCNF.cpp, line 46. (HY000)
    It happened after I changed the join in logical layer from inner join into left outer join from Fact Tab1 to Fact Tab2, This needs to be changed for cases:
    Fact Tab1 contains:
    Period|Currency|FX Rate
    Mar-09|USD|1
    Apr-09|USD|1.1
    Fact Tab2 contains:
    Period|Currency|Product|Profit
    Mar-09|USD|Metal Abs|1000
    Mar-09|USD|Grey Wood|2000
    Expected Result:
    Period|Currency|Product|Profit|FX Rate
    Mar-09|USD|Metal Abs|1000|1
    Mar-09|USD|Grey Wood|2000|1
    Apr-09|USD|(NULL)|(NULL)|1.1
    But, it shows the error as above (have changed the SERVER_THREAD_STACK_SIZE to 512 KB too but no luck, any idea?

    Hey Will,
    Recently I've seen OBIEE generate some bad queries on an Oracle Database. I had setup a few time series measures and when I added more than three into a report, I got a table not found error. It turned out that it was a combination of the query getting very complex and the way it was using ANSI SQL Left Outer Join operator. I'm wondering if your situation is similar.
    Can you try the following?
    1. Log into the RPD and for your user, set the logging level to 7 (Manage->Security then find your user).
    2. Clear all the caches (BI Server=Manage->Cache delete them all, Presentation Server=Settings->Manage Sessions then close all cursors)
    3. Run the report for a date range that works fine
    4. Run the report for a date range that causes the error.
    5. Look at the physical SQL generated in the log files (Settings->Manage Sessions)
    Compare the two queries and see if anything stands out. In fact try to execute both in SQL Developer or Toad and see if you get any errors. If you can, post the physical SQL and I might be able to notice something.
    Just to confirm, you're using OCI to connect to an Oracle source right?
    In my situation, I fixed it by disabling the LEFT OUTER JOIN syntax on the database. We might be able to get you to do something similar to fix your problem.
    Thanks!

    Hi,
        Recently we went for BW upgradatiaon (BI7.0) , the error you are facing could be due to the following issue,
        If infoobjects are used in infoset as infoprovider ( in BW3.5) after upgrade this infoobjects will not be selected automatically as infoproviders. So it will not be available for Infoset.
    Please check whether any infoobjects are used as infoprovider, if so manually change them as infoprovider ( In BI7) and activate.
    Since, few reports are working on the infoset , this could be those reports are not using the fields from the infoobjects. so it is working it seems.
    Please check and let me know.
    Thanks,
    V.Senthil

  • Using FILTER after a FULL OUTER JOIN problem in OWB

    Hi,
    I’m using OWB 11.2.
    In an OWB mapping I need to detect every changes (Insert, Update, Delete) made to the data of a table. In order to find these changes I need to use “FULL OUTER JOIN” and a “FILTER” to join current table to previous table.
    My desired generated query should be like this:
    Select *
    From tab1 FULL OUTER JOIN tab2 on JOIN_CONDITION
    WHERE FILTER_CONDITION
    The problem is that when OWB generates the code, the query will be like this:
    Select *
    From tab1 FULL OUTER JOIN tab2 on JOIN_CONDITION AND FILTER_CONDITION
    As you know these 2 queries are not the same at all!
    I don’t know how to make OWB generate my desired SQL. Please help me…

    Works ok on 11.2.0.3
    Are you using "( + )" for join condition in joiner? Or, are you using "Join input role" parameter to define full outer join condition? Are you using oracle or ANSI syntax?

  • Full outer join ---  bug? Urgent
