SQL*Loader how to handle decimal place
Hi all
I need to load data into table with number field (12,2)
however, the source data is 1,025.02. Then the data cannot be loaded and in log, there is error message Invalid Number
Please kindly advise how to handle this in control file?
Thanks
Thomas

How to maintain decimal places in BOM Qty & what is the essence of base qty
Hello PP members
How to maintain decimal places in BOM Qty & what is the essence of base quantity in BOM ?
Thank Youur first question is not understood, You can have maximum of 3 decimals in BOM item qty.
Base qty is the qty which is refered to all the BOM items.
example -
Product X, base qty 1
Raw material 1 - componen t qty= 1
Raw material 2 - Component qty= 5
This means To produce Product with qty1, it needs raw material 1 qty 1 and raw material 2 qty 5.
This means To produce Product with qty10, it needs raw material 1 qty 10 and raw material 2 qty 50.
This is the meaning of Base qty..it is the referece qty refered to all the components.
About the decimal places
let us say example 2
To produce Product with qty1, it needs raw material 1 qty 1 and raw material 2 qty .0001.
When you enter this in SAP for the raw materialm 2 system will give error message that you need to enter the qty with maximum 3 decimal places, hence you need to enter as below
Product with qty10, it needs raw material 1 qty 10 and raw material 2 qty .001.
This is how you need to adjsut the base qty and component qty with decimalplaces moer than 3,

SQL*Loader - How to combine 2 controlfiles to one controlfile
I have several controllfiles which each import another table from another datafile, because I don't want execute every seperat or create a batch file.... I'm looking for a way to put they all in one single controlfile.
example:
1st ctl-file:
LOAD DATA
INFILE "t1.dat"
INTO TABLE t1 REPLACE
FIELDS TERMINATED BY " "
(c1,
c2 "to_number(:c2,'99999999999999999.99999999999999999','NLS_NUMERIC_CHARACTERS=''.,''')",
c3 date 'YYYY-MM-DD"T"HH24:MI:SS')

üZfxN 465.15226622488257 2006-12-30T09:14:12
2nd ctl-file:
LOAD DATA
INFILE "t2.dat"
INTO TABLE t2 REPLACE
FIELDS TERMINATED BY " "
(c1,
c2 "to_number(:c2,'99999999999999999.99999999999999999','NLS_NUMERIC_CHARACTERS=''.,''')")
alvwxs 13.0
poeh 15.0
zpgiht 21.0
At the examples is everytime used a id column, to ident which row should import in which table.
But at my case i need something like a where condition from which file the data should be imported....how should it look?
Can someone give me an advice how a controlfile should look which import both tables in one controlfile?
BR
rolandIt is not possible to combine the last 3 columns as those columns are seperated by commas and in the SQL Loader control file you must ve specified COMMA as an delimiter. So u better have all the columns in the table plus add one more column which holds the concatenation of the 3 columns.

SQL Loader (how to cut data header)
Hi there,
[oracle 11g]
I got the following text file:
mod; DD.MM.YYYY; HH:MM:SS; aligned
src; "ptv "; "15.04.2012"; "10:47:49"
chs; "ISO8859-1"
ver; "V1.0"
ifv; "V1.0"
dve; "V1.0"

tbl; MENGE_FGR
atr; BASIS_VERSION; FGR_NR; FGR_TEXT
frm; num[9.0]; num[5.0]; char[40]
rec; 122; 8; "VVZ"
rec; 123; 18; "VHZ"
rec; 124; 13; "VTZ" Now I am interested in the column TBL and ATR and follwing rawdata
Do you see a way to automatically create the table MENGE_FR with columns BASIS_VERSION; FGR_NR;FGR_TEST and column types num, num, char and insert the raw data below?
PS:OK, this is mysql ...so I need to convert this first to sql. So you should see num as number.
Thx in advance Thorsten

Edited by: Thorsten on 16.05.2013 07:32There are various ways that you could do this. I have demonstrated one method below. I created a table with two columns, then used SQL*Loader to load the data from the text file into those two columns. Skipping the header rows is optional. You could also use an external table instead, if the text file is on your server, not your client. I then used some PL/SQL to create and execute "create table" and "insert" statements. This is just some starter code. You will need to make modifications to handle other data types and such that were not in the example that you provided, but it should give you the general idea.

SQL*Loader: How to load multi-line report data?
Hi,
is it possible to use SQL*Loader to load data from a hierarchical structured fixed column ASCII file like this
001 scott
New York 01.01.2002 1234
Chicago 15.10.2001 9876
002 smith
Los Angeles 24.12.1999 5678
Washington 01.12.1999 0000
Chicago 01.01.2000 1111
into one database table:
id name city day code
001 scott New York 01.01.2002 1234
001 scott Chicago 15.10.2001 9876
002 smith Los Angeles 24.12.1999 5678
002 smith Washington 01.12.1999 0000
002 smith Chicago 01.01.2000 1111
The number of lines per name is unlimited, the next line starts after a separating ---- line.
We cannot change the format of the text file to import.
There is an example in the documentation that shows how to load a structure like the following via insert triggers:
001 scott New York 01.01.2002 1234
Chicago 15.10.2001 9876
002 smith Los Angeles 24.12.1999 5678
Washington 01.12.1999 0000
Chicago 01.01.2000 1111
But we have the name information on a separate header line, so I don't know if we can use a similar technique here.
regards
SvenTry enclosing your strings with e.g. a double-quote. To do so, the control file needs the following (example):
LOAD DATA
REPLACE
INTO TABLE test
FIELDS TERMINATED BY '|' OPTIONALLY ENCLOSED BY '"'
TRAILING NULLCOLS
id1,
id2,
id3,
id4,
)of course this does mean that your data must change...

Sql loader, how to get decimals into the database?
oracle 10.2
we have data of the form
1.10
1.11
we are using "decimal external" in the control file.
The table is a straight number field
I did a test where I created a table with a number field and without and precision and did regular inserts. I got the decimal values.
so I did
create table x (y number);
insert into x values (1.10);
insert into x values (1.11);
and i got back
1.1
1.11
when we sql load we get
1
1Why use decimal external then? What's wrong with leaving the field as number?

user527827but if one of the when clause faild or some rows are
rejectet the sequence is not right.Did you read the link?
"If a record is rejected (that is, it has a format error or causes an Oracle error), the generated sequence numbers are not reshuffled to mask this. If four rows are assigned sequence numbers 10, 12, 14, and 16 in a particular column, and the row with 12 is rejected, the three rows inserted are numbered 10, 14, and 16, not 10, 12, and 14. This allows the sequence of inserts to be preserved despite data errors. When you correct the rejected data and reinsert it, you can manually set the columns to agree with the sequence."
also if you read multiple lines and they inserted in
the wrong order the number from the sequence is not
the line number...what do you mean with "reading multiple lines and wrong order?" -

SQL loader : how to populate a calculated feild of a table?
Hi All,
I have a table which has total 92 columns, among them 6 feilds are calculated using few other fields of the same table.
i have a csv file , which has only 86 feilds .
during upload data using sql loader, is it possible to calculate other 6 feilds and upload them along with 86 fields ?
Or any other method to populate the calculated values?
Thanks in advance,
ArchanaHi Archana,
You can have a script file with the required update commands and execute that script after the Loader loads the data to have them updated.
But it is not a good practice to store the calculated values in the fields.
Whenever required you can have them as a calculation in your select statements instead of storing them in the table.
Unfortunately if the base values get changed you would be forced to recalculate and store them if you have them in the table.

SQL LOADER: how to load CLOB column using stored function
Hi,
I am a newbie of sql loader. Everything seems to be fine until I hit a
road block - the CLOB column type. I want to load data into the clob
column using a stored function. I need to do some manipulation on the
data before it gets saved to that column. But I got this error when I
run the sql loader.
SQL*Loader-309: No SQL string allowed as part of "DATA" field
specification
DATA is my CLOB type column.
here is the content of the control file:
LOAD DATA
INFILE 'test.csv'
BADFILE 'test.bad'
DISCARDFILE 'test.dsc'
REPLACE
INTO TABLE test_table
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ','
OPTIONALLY ENCLOSED BY '"'
TRAILING NULLCOLS
codeid BOUNDFILLER,
reason BOUNDFILLER,
Checkstamp "to_date(:CHECKSTAMP, 'mm/dd/yyyy')",
"DATA" "GetContent(:codeid, :reason)"
All references are suggesting to use a file to load data on
CLOB column but I want to use a function in which it generates
the content to be saved into the column.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
