Time based incremental load AIS

Dear all,
Can someone explain me whats going wrong when i get the error @@@@@Thread_Source 30 being exited with code -1 or @@@@@Thread_Source 20 being exited with code -1 when loading data via time based incremental load in Analytic Intergration Services.
The field i´m useing is a datefield. In the log the SQL statements can run in a client environment without any errors.
Thanks for your reation.

OBIA Financial Analytics - ETL Incremental Load issue

Hi guys
I have an issue while doing ETL Incremental load in DEV. Source, Target ORACLE.
issue with these two tasks: SDE_ORA_GL_JOURNALS and SDE_ORA_ImportReferenceExtract
incremental load is holding at SDE_ORA_GL_JOURNALS.....on Database sessions the query is completed and also the session is done but no update in the session log for that session in informatica. It says hust ' SQL Query issued to database' . no progress from there. and the task in both informatica session monitor and DAC says running and keeps running for ever. No errors seen in any of the log files.
Any idea on whats happening? I checked session logs, DAC servr logs, Database alert logs, Exception logs on source and found nothing.
I tried to run these Informatica generated queries in SQL developer and they ran well and I did see the results. More over, weird thing is from past three days and about 10 runs....the statis tics are
both thses tasks run in parallel and most of the times Import references extract is completed first and then GL_Journals is running for ever
In one run, GL_Journals is done but then Import reference extract is running for ever. I dont exactly understand whats happening. I see both the queries running in parallel on source database.
Please give me some idea on this. And this same stuff is running good on QA. I dont know how this is working.....any idea on this is appreciated. Thank you. let me know of ay questions. Thank you in advance.

Incremental load into the Dimension table

Hi,
I have the problem in doing the incremental load of the dimension table.Before loading into the dimension table,i would like to check the data in the dimnesion table.
In my dimension table i have one not null surrogate key and the other null dimension tables.The not null surrogate key, i am populating with the Sequence Generator.
To do the incremental load i have done the following.
I made lookup into the dimension table and looked for a key.The key from the lookup table i have passed to the expression operator.In the expression operator i have created one field and hard coded one flag based on the key from the lookup table.I passed this flag to the filter operator and rest of the fields from the source.
By doing this i am not able to pass the new records to the dimension table.
Can you please help me.
I have another question also.
How do i update one not null key in the fact table.
Thanks
Vinay

Hi Mark,
Thanks for your help to solve my problem.I thought i share more information by giving the sql.
I am giving below the 2 sqls, i would like to achieve through OWB.
Both the following tasks need to be accomplished after loading the fact table.
task1:
UPDATE fact_table c
SET c.dimension_table_key =
(SELECT nvl(dimension_table.dimension_table_key,0)
FROM src_dimension_table t,
dimension_table dimension_table
WHERE c.ssn = t.ssn(+)
AND c.date_src_key = to_number(t.date_src(+), '99999999')
AND c.time_src_key = to_number(substr(t.time_src(+), 1, 4), '99999999')
AND c.wk_src = to_number(concat(t.wk_src_year(+), concat(t.wk_src_month(+), t.wk_src_day(+))), '99999999')
AND nvl(t.field1, 'Y') = nvl(dimension_table.field1, 'Y')
AND nvl(t.field2, 'Y') = nvl(dimension_table.field2, 'Y')
AND nvl(t.field3, 'Y') = nvl(dimension_table.field3, 'Y')
AND nvl(t.field4, 'Y') = nvl(dimension_table.field4, 'Y')
AND nvl(t.field5, 'Y') = nvl(dimension_table.field5, 'Y')
AND nvl(t.field6, 'Y') = nvl(dimension_table.field6, 'Y')
AND nvl(t.field7, 'Y') = nvl(dimension_table.field7, 'Y')
AND nvl(t.field8, 'Y') = nvl(dimension_table.field8, 'Y')
AND nvl(t.field9, 'Y') = nvl(dimension_table.field9, 'Y')
WHERE c.dimension_table_key = 0;
fact table in the above sql is fact_table
dimesion table in the above sql is dimension_table
source table for the dimension table is src_dimension_table
dimension_table_key is a not null key in the fact table
task2:
update fact_table cf
set cf.key_1 =
(select nvl(max(p.key_1),0) from dimension_table p
where p.field1 = cf.field1
and p.source='YY')
where cf.key_1 = 0;
fact table in the above sql is fact_table
dimesion table in the above sql is dimension_table
key_1 is a not null key in the fact table
Is it possible to achieve the above tasks through Oracle Warehouse builder(OWB).I created the mappings for loading the dimension table and fact table and they are working fine.But the above two queries i am not able to achieve through OWB.I would be thankful if you can help me out.
Thanks

Business Objects Data Services Incremental Load Help

Hi this my first time creating a incremental load for a batch job. My batch job consists of a try - initialization script - data flow - catch. When I validate my initialization script I am getting an error could you review and identify the error with the script. My data flow consists of the data store table I imported with a query then table comparison then key generation then the the table I am updating.
# Set Todays Date
$SYSDATE = cast ( sysdate (), 'date' );
print ('Today\' date:' || cast($SYSDATE, 'varchar(10)'));
# SET CDC DATE
$CDC_DATE = nvl (cast(sql('Target', 'SELECT MAX(BATCH_END_DATE) FROM BATCH_CONTROL WHERE BATCH_NAME = {$BATCH_NAME}
AND BATCH_STATUS = \'SUCESS\' '), 'date'), cast(to_date('1900-01-01', 'YYYY-MM-DD'), 'date'));
#Mark an entry in Batch_Control
# Batch_Name BATCH_STATUS BATCH_START_DATE BATCH_END_DATE Load_DATE
sql('Target', 'INSERT INTO BATCH_CONTROL VALUES ( {BATCH_NAME}, \'STARTED', {to_char ($CDC_DATE, \'YYYY-MM-DD\')}, NULL, {to_char ($SYSDATE, \'YYYY-MM-DD\')};

So I resolved the first error now I am receiving this long error any ideas?

Assembly Point with mix of time based and discrete components

Hi all,
I have a scenario where I want to assemble 2 different components - one of them time based (assy data EXTERNAL_LOT), the other one discrete (assy data INV_SFC).
Resource system rule "time based resource (genealogy)" is set to true.
I set up and loaded slot config on resource for the time based component.
Operation is configured to not allow SFC complete if components are missing (CT520 on PRE_COMPLETE hook)
When I start SFC at operation and resource in POD the time based component is assembled automatically (according to device history record) However, once I open assembly activity (COMP_LIST_DISPLAY, CT500) to assemble the discrete component both components are displayed as not assembled in component list. If I assemble the discrete component only and then try to complete SFC I receive an error message pointing out that not all components are assembled yet.
I would have expected that time based component is displayed as already assembled and also CT520 hook does recognize the time based component as already assembled.
Am I missing any settings?
Or does such a mixed scenario not work at all?
We are using ME 6.1.4.2
Thanks for your help!
BR Ulrike

Hi,
The issue you are seeing with CT520 whereby the hook does not recognize the time based component as already assembled was resolved in a later release. Please patch to latest version. Associated release notes will detail which patch fixed it.
You would need to use assembly point in POD to add the INV_SFC
Thanks
Steve

Incremental Loads and Refresh Date

Hi all,
Thank you for taking the time to review this post.
Environment
Oracle BI Applications 7.9.6 (Financial & Project Analytics)
Oracle E-Business Suite 11.5.10
Question
I have a Test BI Apps 7.9.6 in a Test environment that is connected to a static EBS 11.5.10 data source. As part of my testing phase I'd like to do multiple Incremental Loads to get an accurate performance impact and timing study for the final pre-approval before migrating to Production. I can get a refresh of EBS which has a week's worth of transactions after my Initial Full Load. What I'd like to do is change Refresh Dates to "trick" the Incremental Load into only loading one days worth of data at a time, rather than the full week's worth of data in the Incremental load. Is this possible, and if so, how?
Example timeline:
Today - Initial Full load using Test EBS as of today
1 week later - Refresh static Test EBS from Production with a week of transactions
Post Refresh - Run daily Incremental jobs using static Test EBS
First Incremental Load - Today's position + 1 day,
Second " " - Today's position + 2 days,
Third " " - Today's position + 3 days, etc
As always all comments and solutions greatly appreciated.
Kind Regards,
Gary.

Say on the 01st of the month, you did a Load.
Then on the 08th of the month, the source EBS system was itself refreshed.
What you want to do is to run a single day refresh on the 08th for all data from the 01st to the 02nd of the month), and then another single day referesh -- whether on the 08th or on the 09th , you don't care -- for all data from the 03rd to the 04th.
Unfortunately, the refresh is from last refresh date to current date. You can't define "refresh upto date". Therefore, your first 'incremental' refresh on the 08th would refresh all data from the 02nd to the 08th in one shot. What you could try to do is
a. After the first load on the 01st, shutdown the BI DWH.
b. When the EBS test source is refresh on the 08th, reset your SYSTEM CLOCK ON THE BI DWH DATABASE SERVER to the 2nd (or 3rd) of the month.
c. Now, when you run a refresh, BI will extract all data from the 01st to the 02nd or 03rd (even though EBS is as of the 08th).
d. Once this is done, shutdown BI DWH.
e. Reet the SYSTEM CLOCK ON THE BI DWH DATABASE SERVER to the 3rd or 4th of the month.
f. Run another Incremental Refresh.
... and so on ...

How to have an Incremental Load after the Full Load ?

Hello,
It may be naive, but that question ocurred to me... I am still dealing with the Full load and have it finish OK.
But I am wondering... once I can get the full load to work OK... Do I need to do something so that the next run is incremental ? or is this automatic ?
Txs.
Antonio

Hi,
1. Setup the source and target table for the task in DAC
2. Once you execute the task (in DAC) than in the Setup -> Phyisical Sources -> Last refresh date timestamp of the tables (for the database) will be updated (Sorry but I do not remeber exactly the location)
3. Once it is updated the incremental (Informatica) workflow will kicked off (if the task not setup for full load all times)
4. If it is null the full load will updated.
5. You can use a variable (may be $$LAST_EXTRACT_DATE?!) to setup the incremental load for the Informatica workflow
Regards
Gergo
PS: Once you have a full load like 15hours run (and it is works ok) the incremental is handy when it is just 30minutes ;)

Incremental loading in owb

hi all,
IT IS URGENT
i came to know that we can use filter on date field.but i cannt uderstand which condition to be placed in filter because source table is having fields like
prod_id,prod_desc,created_date,etl_process_date.
target table is having attributes like prod_id,prod_desc,created_date,modified_date.And also i have to perform TYPE2 mapping for any modification on prod_desc field.
SO my requirement is type2 with incremental loading in OWB
pls let me know incremental loading part,i.e. how could i develop using filter condition

You ca do it by various methods:
1.Load date time store the latest load date time in a table and while loading the target table make sure that data date is after the load date time. (joiner can be used to specify condition).
2. Create an mlog and mview to pick incremental data from source table and use this set as source of your map.
3.If possible add a column which indicates the status of processed records (in source table).Say for example add column named processed records and set it status as YES in the pre map process only those records with status as YES and at the end of the map set this status as DONE.Then again in the new cycle set the records with null in processed records column as YES and repeat the fore mentioned process.

Unable to capture the Citrix network response time using OATS Load testing.

Unable to capture the Citrix network response time using OATS Load testing.

Sales orders in TDMS company/time based reduction are outside the scope

Guys,
I have had some issues with TDMS wheras it didn't handle company codes without plants very well. That was fixed by SAP. But I have another problem now. If I do a company code and time based reduction, It doesn't seem to affect my sales orders in VBAK/VBUK as I would have expected. I was hoping it would only copy sales orders across that have a plant which is assigned to a company code that was specified in the company code based reduction scenario. That doesn't seem to be the case.
VBAK is now about one third of the size of the original table (number of records). But I see no logic behind the reduction. I can clearly see plenty of sales documents that have a time stamp way back from what I specified in my copy procedure and I can see others that have plant entries that should have been excluded from the copy as they do belong to different company codes than the ones I specified.
I was under the impression that TDMS would sort out the correct sales orders for me but somehow that doesn't seem to be happening. I have to investigate further as to what exactly it did bring across but just by looking at what's in the target system I can see plenty of "wrong" entries in there either with a date outside the scope or with a plant outside the scope.
I can also see that at least the first 10'000 entries in VBAK in the target system have a valid from and to date of 00.00.0000 which could explain why the time based reduction didn't work?
Did you have similar experiences with your copies? Do I have to do a more detailed reduction such as specifying tables/fields and values?
Thanks for any suggestions
Stefan
Edited by: Stefan Sinzig on Oct 3, 2011 4:57 AM

The reduction itself is not based on the date when the order was created but the logic enhances it to invoices and offers, basically the complete update process.
If you see data that definitely shouldn't be there I'd open an OSS call and let the support check what's wrong.

How can i control what images load on my project to save preload time and avoid loading all images, elements, divs not yet visible?

Sup buddies,
How can I control what images load on my project to save preload time and avoid loading all images, elements, divs not yet visible?
As the project grows in size the load time increases. How does one control not loading all images ,divs,elements etc. until they're
needed on the timeline? For example some sections are off and only become visible when recalled. My projects slowly grow in size so loading
all images , is counter productive . My other option would be to create separate htmls but that breaks the seamless user experience .

hello, kiwi
quote: "Is there an easy way to burn a completed project to DVD, but keep only the (lo res, lo size) previews on my hard drive?"
yes.
maybe,...
1. you might think of making DVD backups first prior to importing the photos into Aperture. "Store Files: In their current location" once in Aperture make low rez Previews, and export finished Project.
or,
2. bring in the photographs to hard drive first prior to importing the photos into Aperture. "Store Files: In their current location" once in Aperture make low rez Previews, and export finished Project.
the low rez Previews will stay in Aperture but the high quality Versions will be exported onto DVDs and gone from the hard drive (if you delete the originals).
another way would be to export small about 50-70 pixel wide high quality jpegs to a folder on your Desktop and import & keep these in Aperture Library as a reference. make metadata to show where the original Project DVDs are stored and DVD filing system used.

Every time I sync my iphone 4 with itunes my ring custom ring tones change. I have 7 custom ring tones in itunes. One time it will load 1 custom ring tone the next it may be 3 then the next it is one again. The last time it gave me 4 of the 7.

Every time I sync my iPhone 4 with iTunes the number of my custom ring tones change. I have 7 custom ring tones listed. The first time it will load 1 of the ring tones and the next time it will load 3, The next time it will be back to 1. If I have assigned one of the custom ring tones and it does not get loaded it goes back to the ring tone that came with the phone. The last time itunes gave me 4 of the 7 so I have not tried to sync it again. I am using iTunes 10 (10.4.10), and windows 7.
Has anyone else had this problem??
Any ideas to what I need to do??

Have you ever had all 7 of them synced before? Are these ringtones you made yourself? Is there a chance they could exceed 30 seconds in length? Is there a chance you have moved the original file location on the computer? May need the answers to a couple more questions to try and determine an answer.

Duplicate rows in Hierarchy Table created when running incremental load

I copied an out of the box dimension and hierarchy mapping to my custom folders (task hierarchy) this should create the same wids from dimension to hierarchy table and on full load does this using the sequence generator. The problem I am getting is whenever I run a incremental load instead of updating, a new record is created. What would be the best place to start looking at this and testing. A full load runs with no issues. I have also checked the DAC and run the SDE trunc always and SIL trunc for full load only.
Help appreciated

Provide the query used for populating the child records. Issue might be due to caching.
Thanks

Whenever I go to a site or click anything, I always have to move my mouse for the page to load, why is this happening? (When I go to a site full of images, I move my mouse a little bit at a time and it loads one image at a time)

Hi, Tom.
FYI: You've not stated which of your listed Macs is having the problem. However, the following may help in any case:
1. Did you install Front Row using the Front Row hack on a Mac that did not ship from the factory with Front Row installed? If so, See my "Uninstalling the Front Row hack" FAQ. This has been known to cause a variety of problems, including the menu bar (Clock, Spotlight) issues you noted.
2. If you did not install the Front Row Hack, an incompatible or corrupted Startup or Login Item may be partly to blame for the problems with the menu bar. My "Troubleshooting Startup and Login Items" FAQ can help you pin that down if such an item is causing the problem.
3. As a general check, run the procedure specified in my "Resolving Disk, Permission, and Cache Corruption" FAQ. Perform the steps therein in the order specified.
4. Re: Safari and Mail, if not sorted by any of the above, see also:• "Safari: Blank icon after installing Security Update 2006-002 v1.0."
• My my "Multiple applications quit unexpectedly or fail to launch" FAQ
Good luck!
