Tables in header and trailer subforms

I'm trying to create a form which would generate a report containing assets from our ERP system. The very first version is in attachment. The output of report should be splitted to individual pages according to change in column "asset class" of imported assets. I achieved this successfully by creating conditional breaks. So now I have report which generates for every asset class collection of subforms: heading + n x body + trailer. Each heading appears on new page.
The problem occurs when I try to insert table into heading or trailer subform. This leads to strange behavior visible in PDF attached. The table has 2 rows and 3 columns. In the last trailer subform it is displayed fine. In all other trailer subforms generated after conditional break all rows and columns are rendered on the same X and Y coordinates so they cover themselves. The same occurs in heading subform. I want the tables to be shown correctly.
I would appreciate any suggestion and help...

Hi Prashant
You can use a combination of external table and multi table insert. In ODI 11g there is a Oracle Multi Table Insert IKM. You will have to have one interface which has the source as the file and the target is a temporary target. The LKM will use LKM File to External Table, the IKM will use Oracle Multi Table IKM, and it will set DEFINE_QUERY. Also the LKM should set DELETE_TEMPORARY_OBJECTS to false. Then define 2 interfaces to load your 2 targets for example. The first target loading interface will use the 1st interface as a source and the MTI IKM again will use the MTI IKM and set IS_TARGET_TABLE to true and execute to false. Then the second target loading interface will use the 1st interface as a source and the MTI IKM again wil set IS_TARGET_TABLE to true and execute to true.

    Hi Guru
    How can we generate header and Trailer for a file
    EX:

    Hi ,
    1.Create an interface to load data from oracle to file and set generate header as false option in IKM .
    2.Create variable get_current_date of alphanumeric datatype and implement logic SELECT to_Char(SYSDATE,'yyyymmdd') FROM DUAL under refreshing tab
    3.Create variable get_record_count of numeric datatype and implement logic SELECT '<%=odiRef.getPrevStepLog("INSERT_COUNT")%>' FROM DUAL under refreshing tab
    4.Create a package
    Drag the get_current_date variable ,
    Drag odioutfile and paste the below logic OdiOutFile "-FILE=D:\ODI_TEST\emp.txt" "-CHARSET_ENCODING=ISO8859_1" "-XROW_SEP=0D0A" #GET_current_date in command tab
    Drag the interface
    Drag another variable get_Record_count
    Drag the odioutfile and paste the below logic OdiOutFile "-FILE=D:\ODI_TEST\emp.txt" -APPEND "-CHARSET_ENCODING=ISO8859_1" "-XROW_SEP=0D0A"
    #GET_RECORD_COUNT in command tab
    Link all these in sequence,save and run the package.
    OR Modify the IKM SQL to File Append to achieve same functionality.

  • Spooling data with Header and trailer

    Hi everyone,
    I have a problem in spooling the data.
    I get a .dat file to load into db .That .dat file will be having header,records,trailer.While loading into the db i load only the records .
    I load the .dat file into table using sqlldr with direct= true and parallel=true.
    I load data into one table.header and trailer into one table(Loading into two different tables using three control file each for header,records,trailer to load from same .dat file).But while spooling the data out after some modifications to the table.i need to spool it with the header and trailer.I am able to spool only the records but not header and trailer.
    That header and trailer are in standard form,everytime i get the .dat file.
    Help me how to spool data from a table with the HEADER & TRAILER in the spool file.
    Thanks

    Some may argue this is not the right forum - database general might have been a little been than downloads - but now the thread is here I'll try an answer.
    As I see it It depends on your spooling tool.
    Lets assume you are using sqlplus.
    I that case the sql prompt command may serve your purpose
    Alternatively
    select 'header' from dual
    union all
    select field1||','||field2||','field3 .... /*must single string expression but may concatentate field */ from somtable
    union all
    select 'trailer' from dual;may suit.
    However I fear either I have not understood the question or if I have understood the question that you may have difficulties implementing this.

  • Header and trailer pages in report templates

    Hi:
    I wonder how can i make header and trailer pages in the tamplate reports , so that the objects in the template header & footer report would be inherited to the generated reports. I use Oracle reports 6.0.8 and there is no header section, niether Trailer section in the Template Editor, I've read in the reports online help :"You can use the margin and body of the Header and Trailer sections to create a Header and Trailer “page” as in earlier releases. In future releases, you will be able to add and delete sections.", is there any method i can use to make header&trailer pages in the template.

    I have the same question. This is what I found on Metalink.
    goal: How To Define A Header/Trailer Section In A Reports Template Definition File (TDF)
    fact: Oracle Reports Developer
    fix: It is not possible to have a HEADER/TRAILER section in a Reports Template Definition File (TDF). Templates do not need to have a HEADER/TRAILER section, infact there is no sectioning in a template. They just define the visual layout when applied against a report section.
    This did not answer my question!

  • Generating Header and trailer sections in reports..

    Hi all.
    I want to generate reports, that has both a header- and a trailer section page.
    Usually this was part of the template report, but in Designer 9, the generator first converts the template report (.rdf) to a template report (.tdf), and is then using this template.
    But where is the header- and trailer page? You can't see them in the reports builder, when looking at templates, and the generated report does not contain any header- nor trailer pages.
    Have I missed something?
    Any replies welcome...

    Steven

    Hi Steven,
    the database kernel checks with every read the header trailer. If it got a mismatch during read the error message you got is logged.
    The same checkes will be executed when you create a backup. You told us that the backup could be executed without any errors and that the system where you created the backup is ok as well -> you executed a Check data?
    Now everything looks like the error is in the backup and happened during writies to the external backup medium. Or the backup is ok and then the error happens during read from the external medium.
    To get closer to the reason where the problem is located I need to have some more information.
    1. You did the restore several times?
    2. Did the bad Data Page shappens always on the same page -> Check knldiag.err
    3. Did you do your backup on tape?
    4. Did you try to create a backup into a file?
    5. Does the restore from file got the error as well?

    Hi Venkat,
    write a UDF in following way...
    pass the first parameter as the detail node (cache the whole queue) to the UDF pass the second parameter as the trailer countto the UDF
    now loop through the detail records get the count with a counter variable
    check the counter against the trailer count outside the loop
    if it doesnot match trigger the alert from the UDF itself
    Check the below link for triggering alert from an UDF

    Hi,
    I have Source Flat File placed on Unix Box with header and trailer.
    I want to remove Header and Trailer and put in some other file and Data in another file.
    I tried following command in unix its working.But not getting Header and Trailer in another file.
    sed '1d;$d' input_source.txt > output_data.txt
    also How will i use OS command for it in ODI.
    Guide me.
    Thanks
    Ashwini

    Hi Ashwini,
    You can run OS commands in a package using an ODI Tool: OdiOSCommand.
    It is also possible to execute OS commands in an ODI procedure using the Operating System or Jython technologies.
    There should be some articles about this on metalink (http://metalink.oracle.com).

  • Header and Trailer record handling in ODI

    Hi All,
    I have a delimited file which I am trying to load into Oracle DB using Oracle Data Integrator. We are using SQLLDR LKM for this. Since we have header, trailer have different format than the data records, so we have another interface which loads data. Since we have the requirement to load the data into another control table for audit purpose we have another interface.
    What happens when we load the file, because of two interfaces the file scan happens 2 twice. This increases the overall turnaround time. Please note these interfaces work on filter basis for a field called record_type. 0,1,2 are the values for this field which mean header, data and trailer respectively. What we are looking for is how to restrict this double scanning of file for header-trailer and data records. What are the options which can be used here.
    Regards,
    Prashant

    Hi Prashant

You will have to have one interface which has the source as the file and the target is a temporary target. The LKM will use LKM File to External Table, the IKM will use Oracle Multi Table IKM, and it will set DEFINE_QUERY. Also the LKM should set DELETE_TEMPORARY_OBJECTS to false. Then define 2 interfaces to load your 2 targets for example. The first target loading interface will use the 1st interface as a source and the MTI IKM again will use the MTI IKM and set IS_TARGET_TABLE to true and execute to false. Then the second target loading interface will use the 1st interface as a source and the MTI IKM again wil set IS_TARGET_TABLE to true and execute to true.
