SILOS mapping Type2_cols_diff

Hi Everyone,
I am working on creating a custom dimension in informatica for OBIA with peoplesoft as source.I have a question about a particluar column in SILOS mapping.
For Type2_cols_diff column in expression transformation can we use any column from the target table to create an expression using variables.
I have looked at several other mappings like in JobDimension mapping JOBlevel column has been taken from the target table.
My question is what is the logic in selecting the column from the target table.
Can anyone please help me with this.
Thanks in Advance!!!!

Please check whether the file parameterfileDW.txt has the section for that unspecified workflow. If not please copy and paste from DEV env and restart the load.
If it exists in parameterfileDW.txt and still not not generating section for unspecified session in parameter file then try running the below command at <infa_home>\server\bin
pmrep listobjectdependencies -n <WORKFLOW_NAME> -o workflow -f <FOLDER_NAME> -d session -p children
and see whether the output as your unspecified session and post your observations.

Dac not generating paramter files for unspecified mapping in one workflow

Hi,
We are facing a problem with DAC while generating parameter files.I have a task in DAC which is calling a workflow(It contains two sessions,1.SILOS mapping,2.SILOS_UNSPECIFIED mapping).
Both are using the same parameter file.
During Development DAC used to generate parameters for both sessions in the same file.Both now in diff environment,it is generating parameters for the first session
and for unspecified mapping it is not generating any parameters.So unspecified mappings are failing.
Any one help?

Mapping Content Best Practice

Anyone got suggestions on best practice for mapping contents...
a) create a lot of mappings - almost 1 for each table, dim, etc;
b) put many items into logically grouped mappings (e.g. staging static data extract, staging fact extract, etc)
c) somewhere in between - most staging stuff gets chucked together, major dimension/fact refresh has its own mapping, possibly put many related smaller dims (status, etc) in one mapping, etc..
I assume the considerations are parallel execution, monitoring, maintenance/clarity, simplifying process flows, etc.
I suppose I'd go for c), but if anyone can suggest things to avoid that'd be good!

Hi Chewy,
Mapping composition is not an exact science, as you state yourself.
The problem also extends to workflows and workflow subprocess division.
I've made some core rules for myself, that may work for others too:
1) If I want to be able to reload a target in case of problems, it should be in a separate mapping.
2) Generally, each target file has its own mapping. If several disconnected flows have the same target, I put them in the same mapping.
3) If I split a single source into multiple targets, I generally use a single mapping for that
4) If flows are complex (have many operators), I never put two or more together. If your 3600x4800px monitor can't display all of your mapping, you're on wrong track.
5) If I want to sequence simple flows and don't care about 1) or which one runs first (10gR1 caveat), I put them into the same mapping. Eg. when the source cannot handle concurrent queries well.
When it comes to workflows, things get more complicated.
In my current project, most source data moves through three modules: staging, ods (relational), and data mart (star schema). I have two requirements for packaging mappings into workflow subprocesses:
1) There should be a subprocess per source module that transfers all data from the source to the staging area
2) Each target (dim or cube) in the data mart should have a silo-type subprocess that handles the data from staging through ods into the data mart. Rule 1) from mappings applies here, as well.
To do this efficiently, you should have a PL/SQL function that checks eg. if the source loaded successfully into staging before commencing with target loading.

About milk quality in silo(storage location)

hi...
vendor had supplied different quality(fat & snf) of milk (Weighing is easy when compared to measuring volume practically). by can or tankar & milk receied at silo (storage location) the receiving flow of milk is continius & issuing flow of milk is continius(10000 ltr in 1/2 hour)upto 22 hour clint want a exact quality(fat & snf) of milk in silo (storage location) any time. how can map this sinario in sap for quality in silo

Dear,
Vendor had supplied different quality(fat & snf) of milk (Weighing is easy when compared to measuring volume practically). by can or tankar & milk receied at silo (storage location) the receiving flow of milk is continius
The vendor is only one or many.
That means the flow of receipt of milk is continuos. Regarding quality terms fixed with vendor?? (In case of single vendor).
If continuous suplly - what about difference in 1st receipt and 2nd receipt?? (When mixing in the same silo both receipts - mixed).
The only way client want to check quality continuously - take samples time to time and confirm the quality.

Remote System and Remote Key Mapping at a glance

Hi,
I want to discuss the concept of Remote System and Remote Key Mapping.
Remote System is a logical system which is defined in MDM Console for a MDM Repository.
We can define key mapping enabled at each table level.
The key mapping is used to distinguish records at Data Manager after running the Data Import.
Now 1 record can have 1 remote system with two different keys but two different records cannot have same remote system with same remote key. So, Remote key is an unique identifier for record for any remote system for each individual records.
Now whenever we import data from a Remote System, the remote system and remote key are mapped for each individual records. Usually all records have different remote keys.
Now, when syndicating back the record with default remote key is updated in the remote system that is sent by xml file format.
If same record is updated two times from a same remote system, the remote key will be different and the record which is latest contains highest remote key.
Now, I have to look at Data Syndication and Remote key.
I have not done Data Syndication but my concept tell if there is duplicate record with same remote system but different remote keys both will be syndicated back. But if same record have two remote keys for same remote system then only the default remote key is syndicated back.
Regards
Kaushik Banerjee

You are right Kaushik,
I have not done Data Syndication but my concept tell if there is duplicate record with same remote system but different remote keys both will be syndicated back.
Yes, but if they are duplicate, they needs to be merged.
But if same record have two remote keys for same remote system then only the default remote key is syndicated back.
This is after merging. So whichever remote key has tick mark in key mapping option(default) , it will be syndicated back.
Pls refer to these links for better understanding.

These type of Internal Errors are all too common in OWB and it's difficult to diagnose the exact problem.
I'd suggest closing the Design Centre, going back in and trying to delete it again, this will often resolve Internal errors.
There's also an article on Metalink Doc ID: 460411.1 about errors when deleting mappings but it's specific to an ACLContainer error, so may or may not be of use.
One of the suggestions is to connect as the Repository Owner rather than a User and try to delete the mapping.
Cheers

FileName in ABAP XSLT Mapping

Dear SDN,
In an integration scenario we are using sender File Adapter and a ABAP XSLT Mapping.
Is there any way to get the source FileName from such mapping. Im trying to use the adapter-specific message attributes, but it doesn't work, and I didn´t find an example, probably I and doing somthing wrong.
regards,

Thank you for your help,
I just try to access the adapter-specific attibutes using:

have you had this situation?

Sample source code for fields mapping in expert routine

Hi All
Iam writing the expert routine from dso to cube for example I have two fields in dso FLD1,FLD2
same fields in infocube also ,can any body provide me sample abap code to map source fields to target fields in expert routine,your help will be heighly appreciatble,it's an argent.
regards
eliaz

Basic would be ;
RESULT_FIELDS -xxx = <SOURCE_FIELDS> -xxx
you have the source fields as source, and result fields for as the target. In between you can check some conditions as in other routines of transformation.
BEGIN OF tys_SC_1, shows your source fields ( in your case DSO chars and key figures)
BEGIN OF tys_TG_1, , shows your result fields ( in your case Cube characteristics)
Hope this helps

How can I distinguish different action mapping in one ActionClass file?

I would like to create a ActionClass which will handle 3 mapping which comes from /add, /show or /del.
My question is how can I change the code so that the ActionClass servlet can distinguish the request from different url mapping ? Can anyone give me some short hints? Thx.
struts-config.xml
<action-mappings>
<action name="MemberInfoForm" path="/add" scope="request" type="com.myapp.real.MemberAction">
<action name="MemberInfoForm" path="/show" scope="request" type="com.myapp.real.MemberAction">
<action name="MemberInfoForm" path="/del" scope="request" type="com.myapp.real.MemberAction">
</action-mappings>MemberAction.class
public class MemberAction extends org.apache.struts.action.Action {
    private final static String SUCCESS = "success";
    public ActionForward execute(ActionMapping mapping, ActionForm form,
            HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
            throws Exception {
        return mapping.findForward(SUCCESS);

http://struts.apache.org/1.2.x/api/org/apache/struts/actions/DispatchAction.html
Thank you so much for all of your suggestion.
I read the document of MappingDispatchAction and its note say:
NOTE - Unlike DispatchAction, mapping characteristics may differ between the various handlers, so you can combine actions in the same class that, for example, differ in their use of forms or validation.........
I wonder in DispatchAction, we can also have various forms or validation as MappingDispatchAction does, just by using different name in the action tag, for example:
<action input="/p1.jsp" name="MForm1" path="/member" scope="session" parameter="action" type="com.myapp.real.MemberAction">
<action input="/p2.jsp" name="MForm2" path="/member" scope="session" parameter="action" type="com.myapp.real.MemberAction">
<action input="/p3.jsp" name="MForm3" path="/member" scope="session" parameter="action" type="com.myapp.real.MemberAction">Hence, it is not the difference as stated from the NOTE, right?

How can I save to the same map every time when printing pdfs?

How can I save to the same map every time when printing pdfs?
Finder points to the document map even when I chose a different map recently.
I often print series of pdfs from the print dialog box, I'd like to choose the map to save to and then have all subsequent pdf prints automatically directed to the same map until I decide otherwise.

that link seems to be broken right now:

Sensor Mapping Express VI's performance degrades over time

I was attempting to do a 3d visualization of some sensor data. I made a model and managed to use it with the 3d Picture Tool Sensor Mapping Express VI. Initially, it appeared to work flawlessly and I began to augment the scene with further objects to enhance the user experience. Unfortunately, I believe I am doing something wrong at this stage. When I add the sensor map object to the other objects, something like a memory leak occurs. I begin to encounter performance degradation almost immediately.
I am not sure how I should add to best add in the Sensor Map Object reference to the scene as an object. Normally, I establish these child relationships first, before doing anything to the objects, beyond creating, moving, and anchoring them. Since the Sensor Map output reference is only available AFTER the express vi run. My compromise solution, presently, is to have a case statement of controlled by the"First Call" constant. So far, performace seems to be much better.
Does anyone have a better solution? Am I even handling these objects the way the community does it?
EDIT: Included the vi and the stl files.

I agree with Hunter, your current solution is simple and effective, and I can't really visualize a much better way to accomplish the same task.
Just as a side-note, the easiest and simplest way to force execution order is to use the error terminals on the functions and VIs in your block diagram. Here'a VI snippet with an example of that based on the VI you posted. (If you paste the image into your block diagram, you can make edits to the code)
Since you expressed some interest in documentation related to 3D picture controls, I did some searching and found a few articles you might be interested in. There's nothing terribly complex, but these should be a good starting point.

Numbers/Address Book and Google Maps

I would love to integrate my spreadsheet of addresses or my Address Book with Google Maps.
Is this possible? Somehow?
I take a lot of trips across the country and don't always know when I will be driving by my friends. But if I had a map I could glance at to see where they all are, I would know that I could schedule a lunch with a friend halfway or something like that.
I have heard about MapPoint, but don't know if there is anything like this that is free/affordable/non-MS.
Thanks!

Integrating in Numbers would not be automatic. You'd have to format links to assign to each address.
I've seen plug-ins to use Google maps with Address Book. Try a search on MacUpdate or VersionTracker for Address Book.
I think one of the features for Address Book in Leopard is integration with Google maps.

Mapping/invoking key codes in a GameCanvas's main game loop.

I'm trying to bind some diagonal sprite movement methods to the keypad. I already know that I have to map out the diagonals to key codes since key states only look out for key presses in the upper half of the phone (d-pad, soft buttons, etc...). Problem is, how do I invoke them in the main game loop since a key state can be encapsulated in a method and piped through the loop? What makes this even worst is a bug that my phone maker's game API (Siemens Game API for MIDP 1.0, which is their own implementation of the MIDP 2.0 Game API) has, in which if I override the keyPressed, keyReleased, or keyRepeated methods, it will always set my key states to zero, thus I can't move the sprite at all. Also, it seems that my phone's emulator automatically maps key states to 2, 4, 6, and 8, so my only concern is how do I map the diagonal methods into 1, 3, 7, and 9, as well as invoking them in the main game loop? Enclosed is the example code that I've been working on as well as the link to a thread in the Siemens (now Benq Mobile) developer's forum about the bug's discovery:

Okay...you lost me...I thought that's what I was doing?
If you mean try hitTestPoint ala this:
wally2.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, letsSee);
function letsSee(event:Event)
          // create a for loop to test each array item hitting wally...
          for (var i:Number=0; i<iceiceArray.length; i++)
               // if you don't hit platform...
          if (wally2.hitTestPoint(iceiceArray[i].x, iceiceArray[i].y, false)) {
          wally2.y -= 5;}
                      return;
That's not working either.

In Import Manager
I have mapped Remote Key field with ID .
Name with Name
category with Category Qualified Range (A 1-10)
I have source file like this
Id name category
11 10 A
In syndicator i have one more field Material Number .Mapped this with Material Number (should Get generated material Number )
Name with Name
Category with Category
Remote Key value with Material Number
After syndication I am getting Id values in Material Number .(Instead of 1 I am getting 11)
Can any one let me know the solution?

Got It . Should not Map Id field with the Remote key in Import Manager.
