Unidirectional nullable one to ... relationship modeling

Hi,
I have 2 tables a and b. table b has a foreign key a_id, but I don't want table a has a column b_id. the a_id can be null. in data modeler, if I leave the target optional box unchecked, then everything is fine except the generated sql will have "not null" for a_id, which I have to manually remove. if I check that box, then the generated sql will have a b_id column in table a, which I don't want at least for now. Is this supported or did I miss something?
Thanks.
David

Hi David,
you should set "Dominant Role" in order to get unidirectional 1:1 relationships.

  • Fan always running on my HP Pavilion All-in-One 200-5000 (model #2MD0400F1W)

    The fan on my HP Pavilion All-in-One 200-5000 (model #2MD0400F1W) seems to be always running (and it's not quiet). I believe I'm running the latest BIOS and I've already checked to make sure the air vents are clear. I'm not running any memory or processor intensive applications. Any suggestions how to reduce how long and frequently the fan seems to be running? Thanks.

  • More than one CIF integration model possible for material?

    Hi Gurus,
    we want to have two different integration models (with non-overlapping selections) for materials to be able to have separate selections, but we cannot make it work.
    When we create them the first time and then activate them, everything works fine: both models send their products to APO in the initial load. However, if there are changes in products in both models, when we generate and then activate one of the models, the changes in the other one are lost: the generation-activation of the second model does not send any product to APO even if there were any changes in the master data (and we see the ALE pointers as processed in the table)
    Is there any workaround to solve this issue in a system without CIF pointers in BDCP2?? The ECC system is below the relevant releases and will not be upgraded in the near future.
    We could not find any mention to an existing limitation on the number of models being one neither in OSS notes nor the help pages.
    thanks a lot,
    Pablo

    Pablo,
    It is common to have multiple Integration Models for Materials.
    I have never heard of transaction BDCP2.  I also have never seen the problem you describe.
    I usually prefer not to use change pointers at all for Master data, such as Materials.  You can alter this behavior in CFC9, and instead use Business Transfer Events.  This means that all fields that are relevant for 'change transfer' to SCM will move across almost immediately after saving the changed material master.
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_scm70/helpdata/EN/c8/cece3be9cd4432e10000000a11402f/frameset.htm
    Also read the links contained in this page.
    If you wish to actually perform a new 'initial load', then run the Integration model through program RIMODINI.  It may be a lengthy run.
    As always, check first in your Qual system before committing to production.
    Best Regards,
    DB49

  • One to one relationship modelling

    Hi all
    How to model a one to one relationship?
    i have a scenario where i had to maintain 2 different entities and cannot merge them into a single table coz they are separate entities
    Now while modelling them ... do we need to have a primary key for the second table (or)
    use the primary key of the first table as the foreign key on the second table with Unique constraint on it .
    Ex: a single subscription has a single criteria
    subscription table ........... and criteria table
    now should i iuse criteria id as a primary key of criteria table ? (or)
    subscription id as the foregin key in the criteria table ?
    or allow include both in the criteria table
    please suggest
    Thanks and Regards
    Raj

    hi dportas,
    first of all thanks for your respose...
    what is reciprocal foreign key?
    my scenario is like this
    i have a table called subscriptions which records all subscriptions that we have subscribed to to receive an alert to our email primary key is subscriptionid.
    every alert has an alert criteria with different set of attributes
    hence i have 5 alert criteria tables... each with totlally different type of attributes
    eg: balance criteria (balanceamount,condition) cutoff criteria(cutofftime,....)
    we can subscribe to only one alert in a single subscription
    hence subscription to balance criteria table is 1-1
    subscription to cutoff criteria table is 1-1
    now my question is that shoudl each of the criteria table should have criteriaid (or) should i put subscription id as the foregih key in each of the tables for relationship

  • Multiple relationship modeling

    Hello,
    I am hitting a bug/issues/misunderstanding on my side with data modeller 4.0.0.833 (I had this issue in the previous versions too).
    I was trying to model multiple relationships from a entity to a detail entity and am hitting some problems. I have the following situation (simplified) :
    Party Entity : Party ID (PID), Party Name
    Transaction Entity : Trans ID (PID), cost (number)
    I then create 2 1-to-many relationship from party to transaction:
    Party -> Transaction (1 to many)
    Party -> Transaction (1 to many)
    This creates 2 FKs on the transaction entity called (Party ID and Party ID1). I rename this attributes in the transaction entity as "From Party" and "To Party"
    I then do a engineer to relational model.
    This then ignores the attribute names in the transaction entity I had given ("From party" and "to party") and creates 2 new columns - "Party_Party_ID" and "Party_Party_ID1".
    Is there a way I can preserve the names I had given in the logical model for the FKs when engineered to Physical? Or is this a bug?
    Secondly, Is it possible in the Relation properties dialog box (by double clicking the relationship lines in the logical model) in the target cardinality section to select the FKs I had created ("From Party" and "to Party") so that I could document correctly which is the "from" and which is the "to".
    Thanks in advance.
    AK

    Hi AK,
    you have 2 options:
    1) clear "Apply name translation" check box in engineering dialog
    2) use proper setting for naming template and names in your model (as Dimitar suggested) - naming templates are available in design properties dialog>"Settings>Naming standards">templates"
    2.1 change naming template for "Column Foreign key" to {relationship}
    2.2 Rename your relationships as "From Party" and "To Party"
    3.1 Check "Apply name translation" check box in engineering dialog

  • Combine 3D models to one 3D pdf model

    Hi!
    Due to export problems with our CAD (Bentley Microstation) we have to split a model in separate files when exporting to u3d. My question is then, is it possible to merge these files into one single 3D pdf model?
    I have tried the combine files in Acrobat 3D with no luck, have also tried "Document>Insert pages" and nothing happens. Will be thankful if anyone can help me with this!
    Jarle Ødegaard

    The 'Insert Pages' feature will only bring in separate groups of pages into a PDF. It might be possible for you to combine all of the individual parts by using the 3D Toolkit. One workflow would be to import the original model parts into the 3D Toolkit before converting them to a PDF, combining them in the Toolkit.

  • One adaptive RFC Model and Multi Backend System.

    Hi All,
    I am trying to fetch data from multi backend system by using an adaptive RFC model.
    It is not tidy to create multi model for a RFC function to fetch data from multi SAP system, because we have dozens of SAP systems.(over 40)
    So, I would like to switch to multiple SAP systems with an adaptive RFC model at runtime.
      1 model(Same Function) -
    > System A

    Is there any sample or tutorial about this sort of senario?

    Hi,
    Circular relationship are never supported by any server, an example would be
    A has a relation with B, B has a relation with C, and C to A
    Self relation means A has a relation with its own kind (A).
    If a bean A has relation with B and B has relation with A, you dont call it circular its bidirectional relation.
    Basically directionality depends how do you want to navigate your relations, viz., which bean needs to keep track of which bean.
    Regards
    Meka Toka
    PS: And yeah, environment means, what server you are using, what OS, what version number etc etc.

  • Can I replace my A1226 model keyboard with one from a model A1260?

    My A1226 keyboard has dead keys, somebody is parting out their A1260--Can I replace my keyboard with theirs?

    Well, you didn't mention what hardware was involved.
    It's difficult to know if laptop keyboards are interchangeable between different models. Typically the keyboards are made for the computer so unless the keyboards are exactly the same they may not be interchangeable. You can give it a try. You could also contact ifixit.com to see if they know.

  • How to persist a nullable one-to-one child of an updated parent?

    We have the following case:
    - Parent entity (Employee, table name=Employee) has a child entity (EmployeePosition, table name=EmployeePosition)
    We strongly need the EmployeePosition to be saved in another table for other reasons
    - Child Entity field in Employee:
    @OneToOne(mappedby="employee")
    private EmployeePosition employeePosition ;
    Required Scenario:
    1. Open an existing employee record has employeePosition=null --> We do that normally
    2. Select a position for the employeePosition --> We do that normally
    3. Merge Employee entity, and JPA persists the employeePosition AUTOMATICALLY --> Don't know what to do or which annotations to use
    How to do step 3?
    N.B.
    We tried Cascade.ALL, but, it generates exception (like: primary key column is not found as a parameter for the SQL built by JPA; the SQL is SELECTing from EmployeePosition using Employee Primary Key as parameters and not EmployeePosition primary key), as the parent entity is being merged while the child entity is being persisted; apparently, not supported.
    Thanks in advance

    You should be able to just find() the Employee and set its position and commit.
    If you are finding the Employee in a seperate transaction/EntityManager or serializing it, then you can use merge(), which should work.
    Include your code, SQL log, and exception stack trace.
