"use ODBC outer join syntax on limits"  issues

I'm converting a series of BQY's from Brio 6.6 to Hyperion 9.3. I have some questions about the "use ODBC outer join syntax on limits" option in the OCE. I sort of understand this option's purpose, but I don't completely understand the SQL I'm seeing. For example Brio 6.6 is generating the following SQL statement:
SELECT * FROM tblA AL1 LEFT OUTER JOIN tblB AL38 ON (AL38.ParentID=AL1.ChildID AND
AL38.Data='SomeData') WHERE ((NOT AL38.Action IS NULL))
Now, Hyperion 9.3 generated the SQL statement as follows:
SELECT * FROM tblA AL1 LEFT OUTER JOIN tblB AL38 ON (AL38.ParentID=AL1.ChildID AND
AL38.Data='SomeData') AND (NOT AL38.Response IS NULL))
My questions are:
1) Why isn't the "NOT AL38.Action IS NULL" statement included in the outer join in Brio? I'm OK with the fact that it is not, but my limited understanding of the "use ODBC outer join syntax on limits" seems to indicate that it should end up there.
2) The Hyperion SQL is returning incorrect results. How can I get Hyperion to generate the same SQL as Brio? And still use the OCE with "use ODBC outer join syntax on limits" selected? This setting is working fine for other BQY's.

In the first post, I modified the actual table name I'm using, the following is my actual output:
SQL> SELECT A0.name partName,A2.name usedPartName FROM WTPartUsageLink A1
2 RIGHT OUTER JOIN (
3 (SELECT A0.idA2A2,A0B.name FROM WTPart A0 INNER JOIN WTPartMaster A0B
4 ON ((A0.idA3masterReference = A0B.idA2A2)))
5 UNION ALL
6 (SELECT A0.idA2A2,A0B.name
7 FROM WTProduct A0 INNER JOIN WTProductMaster A0B ON ((A0.idA3masterRefer
ence = A0B.idA2A2)))) A0
8 ON (A0.idA2A2 = A1.idA3A5) LEFT OUTER JOIN

  • OBIEE not applying outer join syntax to filters

    (Note: I've already thoroughly searched the forums before posting this. Thanks)
    My problem is the following:
    I'm trying to build a report that is a count from my fact table, grouped by month from my date dimension for a given year, resulting in 12 data points. The problem is that not all months have actual data, but I still need those months to show on the report with a count of zero. Typical simple reporting requirement.
    I have already done the obvious and within my business layer made the join between my fact table and my date dimension an outer join on the fact side, just like you'd do if writing the query by hand. And when tested by hand this includes all dates for the year anyway, and when coupled with the appropriate null test on the count measure I'd get my 12 data points with zeros were appropriate.
    The problem is that there are additional filters I need to apply on the fact data (there are a couple text-based code values that didn't warrant full tables themselves so are just degenerate dimensions directly on the fact table.)
    When these filters are applied at the Answer level, I'm only getting back the months that actually have data, and lose the months where the count should be zero. A check of the session log for the query that was generated shows the problem. While OBI properly generates the outer-join syntax for the join itself between the two tables (my date dim and fact table) it does NOT apply the outer-syntax to the constant-based filter against the fact, effectively negating the outer join.
    Actual query from the log (I simply changed the table aliases from the ugly T##### stuff OBI generates to something more readable for posting here):
    select D.DT_MONTH_NAME as c1,
    D.DT_MONTH_NUM as c2,
    I.INC_TYPE as c3,
    I.INC_EMP_GROUP as c4,
    sum(case when I.INC_KEY is null then 0 else 1 end ) as c5
    from DATE_DIM D, INCIDENT_F I
    where ( D.DATE_KEY = I.DATE_KEY (+) ) and ( D.DT_YEAR = 2010 and I.INC_EMP_GROUP = 'CONTRACTOR' )
    group by D.DT_MONTH_NUM, D.DT_MONTH_NAME, I.INC_TYPE, I.INC_EMP_GROUP
    order by c2
    You can see that the outer syntax (+) is applied to the join, but not to the filter on I.INC_EMP_GROUP. If I take this query and drop it in something like SQL Developer, it only returns the months with data. If I throw the (+) after I.INC_EMP_GROUP like I'd do if writing this by hand, the desired zero-months results pop back in.
    I have already searched the forums and while lots of people seem to have asked this question, the only solutions involve things like trickery in the business layer using dummy fact tables followed by manipulations at the report level etc. Unfortunately I can't rely on these as the system is eventually to be turned over to users who can't be expected to apply various hacks to write reports.
    Anyone ever get to the bottom of getting OBI to apply outer join logic in filters as well, when the filtered table is meant to be outer-joined to?
    Any comments are appreciated.
    John

    I know that this thread is a bit old thought it might be helpful to some one...
    The Issue is, when using Degener@teDimen$ion ( this is !nner joned to FACT tables in BMM) and if any of the dimensions {other than theDegener@teDimen$ion (Let us say Dim X) } have an ()uter join to any of the fact tables, and you were doing your analysis using Degener@teDimen$ion,  Dim X, Measure value you will face the following issues.
    when filtering the analysis on the ()uter join dimension ( Dim X), the IN filter will not work. Reason is that the filter is getting applied to both the Dimension and FACT tables and the values that exist in Dimension Dim X but not in FACT table wont show up.
         The above issue can be fixed by changing the join between the fact and Degener@teDimen$ion from inner to outer. I think this is a bug.. because  it is supposed to filter the fact  table after the entire outer joined result is obtained but not filter the fact table for the Dim X values and do a outer join. I think the BI should be intelligent enough.

  • Outer Join Syntax in sql2k to Oracle Migration

    All of my existing SQL Server 2000 code is using the (INNER, LEFT OUTER, RIGHT OUTER) JOIN syntax which according to Oracle SQL Reference (A90125-01) is supported. The migration workbench seems to want to convert this to the old style syntax of putting (+) in the where clause conditions. I am therefore getting lots of warnings telling me that "complex outer joins are not reliably supported". Is there a setting somewhere that will tell the migration workbench to maintain (subject to required conversion) the original syntax format.

    Hi Doug,
    The issue you report has been tackled in a recent internal build released by the OMWB team. OMWB version 9.2.0.1.6 which is freely downloadable on the http:\\mtg.ie.oracle.com site. As I've mentioned, this is an internal release and is therefore not supported - although it is very stable and has already been used by several internal customers. We expect to have a fully supported release of OMWB available on OTN in December.
    In version 9.2.0.1.6, there is an option in the "Parse Options" tab on the Stored Procedures property sheet called "Generate Oracle 8i Outer Joins" - this setting is switched off by default in this build and would therefore preserve your ANSI compliant joins by default. Switching the setting on causes the OMWB parser to generate the joins in the old (+) Oracle syntax standard.
    I hope this helps,
    Tom.

  • Old outer join syntax produces different results from new syntax!

    I have inherited a query that uses the old outer join syntax but that is yielding correct results. When I translate it to the new outer join syntax, I get the results I expect, but they are not correct! And I don't understand why the old syntax produces the results it produces. Bottom line: I want the results I'm getting from the old syntax, but I need it in the new syntax (I'm putting it into Reporting Services, and RS automatically converts old syntax to new).
    Here's the query with the old outer join syntax that is working correctly:
    Code Snippet
    SELECT   TE = COUNT(DISTINCT T1.ID),
             UE = COUNT(DISTINCT T2.ID),
             PE = CONVERT(MONEY, COUNT(DISTINCT T2.ID)) / 
                  CONVERT(MONEY,COUNT(DISTINCT T1.ID))
    FROM     TABLE T1, TABLE T2
    WHERE    T1 *= T2
    In this query, much to my surprise, TE <> UE and PE <> 1. However, TE, UE, and PE seem to be accurate!
    Here's the query with the new outer join syntax that is working but not producing the results I need:
    Code Snippet
    SELECT   TE = COUNT(DISTINCT T1.ID),
             UE = COUNT(DISTINCT T2.ID),
             PE = CONVERT(MONEY, COUNT(DISTINCT T2.ID)) / 
                  CONVERT(MONEY,COUNT(DISTINCT T1.ID))
    FROM     TABLE T1 LEFT OUTER JOIN TABLE T2 ON T1.ID = T2.ID
    Though not producing the results I need, it is producing what would be expected: TE = UE and PE = 1.
    My questions:
    1) Can someone who is familiar enough with the old syntax please help me understand why TE <> UE and PE <> 1 in the first query?
    2) Can someone please tell me how to properly translate the first query to the new syntax so that it continues to produce the results in the first query?
    Thank you very much.

    How can we reproduce the issue?
    Code Snippet
    USE [master]
    GO
    EXEC sp_dbcmptlevel Northwind, 80
    GO
    USE [Northwind]
    GO
    SELECT
    TE
    = COUNT(DISTINCT T1.OrderID),
    UE = COUNT(DISTINCT T2.OrderID),
    PE = CONVERT(MONEY, COUNT(DISTINCT T2.OrderID)) /
    CONVERT(MONEY,COUNT(DISTINCT T1.OrderID))
    FROM
    dbo
    .Orders T1, dbo.Orders T2
    WHERE
    T1
    .OrderID *= T2.OrderID
    SELECT
    TE
    = COUNT(DISTINCT T1.OrderID),
    UE = COUNT(DISTINCT T2.OrderID),
    PE = CONVERT(MONEY, COUNT(DISTINCT T2.OrderID)) /
    CONVERT(MONEY,COUNT(DISTINCT T1.OrderID))
    FROM
    dbo
    .Orders T1
    LEFT OUTER JOIN
    dbo.Orders T2
    ON T1.OrderID = T2.OrderID
    GO
    EXEC sp_dbcmptlevel Northwind, 90
    GO
    Result:
    TE
    UE
    PE
    830
    830
    1.00
    TE
    UE
    PE
    830
    830
    1.00
    As you can see, I am getting same results.

  • SQL Server "LEFT OUTER JOIN" syntax

    Haven't seen a solution to this on the forum or in the docs.
    I've got 2 objects, Task and Role, that are linked in a M-M relationship.
    My tables are:
    T_TASKS
    T_TASKSROLES
    T_ROLES
    I am querying T_TASKS and joining on T_ROLES, but I need to use an outer join on T_ROLES.
    In SQL Server, my FROM clause SHOULD look like this:
    FROM (T_TASKSROLES t2 LEFT OUTER JOIN T_TASKS t1 ON t1.ID = t2.TASKID) LEFT OUTER JOIN T_ROLES t0 ON t0.ID = t2.ROLEID
    however, if I use eb.anyOfAllowingNone(_roles) in my ExpressionBuilder. TopLink creates a LEFT OUTER JOIN clause that looks like this:
    FROM T_ROLES t0 LEFT OUTER JOIN T_TASKS t1 ON ((t0.ID = T_TASKSROLES.ROLEID) AND (t1.ID = T_TASKSROLES.TASKID))
    I can see the logic in how it builds this clause. But, it doesn't parse in SQL Server.
    Is there a way to effect how TopLink generates the FROM clause for outer joins? I mean, I understand how to use the XXXPlatform.java source files and can change whether to use OuterJoin in the WHERE clause or not. But, I can't see anything in the platform class that would allow me to figure this out.
    I realize I could write SQL manually, but is there a way to do this so that the same code would work on SQL Server, Oracle, and Sybase (assuming the DatabaseLogin is configured appropriately)?
    It just seems like LEFT OUTER JOIN when joining M-M relationships isn't generating proper SQL. Is the TopLink SQL SQL92-compliant?
    Nate

    I should add that I have tried to change SQLServerPlatform to have shouldPrintOuterJoinInWhereClause() return "true". This embeds a "=*" in the join conditions in the WHERE clause.
    SQL Server 2000 still supports this syntax, but the "=*" isn't ALWAYS the correct operator. It is IMPORTANT to put the "*" on the correct side of the expression.
    TopLink always prints "=*", and it always puts it in the correct space, but the OPERATORS are not always in the correct order so you are creating a "left join" on the wrong table.
    So my other question, is it possible to FORCE TopLink to remember to put the outer join table in the RIGHT SIDE?

  • Using Left Outer Join

    Hi SAP,
    I have an access database with table called "Employee_ID".  I am linking this table to a table called "Sales" in our main database and trying to report on January 2009.
    There is one employee that is not appearing in my report.  I know this employee has had no sales in Jan 2009.  So, I tried linking the table using Left Outer Join and still this employee is not appearing in my report.
    As a test, when I bring in Employee_ID table alone, the missing employee appears but when I try linking it INNER or LEFT OUTER join to table Sales, this employee does not appear.
    Any help how I can bring the employee in from table Employee_ID?
    Many thanks in advance,
    Zack H.

    Carl & Raghavendra,
    Your suggestion led me to the finding my solution.  Your suggestion brought back the missing employee but I needed all employees that had sales in January 2009 AND those that didn't.  So I had to tweak your select expert formula as follows:
    isnull({Sales.amt}) or
    {Sales.period}="0109"
    This brought back everything as needed!  There was one negative about using this method.  The performance was poor.  It took a really long time to run.
    To avoid having to wait for this to run and increase the performance, I had to go into the database and add a $0.00 sales amt for employee 2040 (or an empty sales amount record) in the month of January 2009.  This brought back everyone also and it obviously increased the performance exponentially.  Curious, why does it take forever to run using the above formula in select expert?
    Thank you both Raghavendra and Carl for your relentless efforts to find a solution.  You did it!

  • Outer join syntax - oracle 8i

    Here is an Oracle 8i issue I've run into ....
    I am trying to create a table that contains a record for each hour of the day (even if count is 0). I have a problem when I try a right outer join using the following syntax:
    SELECT MDT.date_field, COUNT(*)
    FROM MASTER_DATE_TABLE MDT, hsa_tgt.PICIS_OR POR
    WHERE MDT.date_field = TO_CHAR(POR.OR_IN_DTTM,'YYYYMMDDHH24') (+)
    AND TO_DATE(MDT.date_field,'YYYYMMDDHH24') >= '01-Jan-2006'
    AND TO_DATE(MDT.date_field,'YYYYMMDDHH24') <= '31-Jan-2006'
    GROUP BY MDT.date_field;
    The problem 'SQL code no properly ended' only occurs if I use the TO_CHAR function (or any function for that matter) on the outer join line.
    Is there a workaround? I did manage to create a temporary table and then successfully do an outer join in order to bypass having the to_char function in the join statement.
    Maybe a union?
    TIA

    I had to put it in a subquery? (if that's what it's called)
    SELECT a1.date_field DateAndHour, b1.OR_date, NVL(b1.record_count,0)
    FROM  MASTER_DATE_TABLE a1,
                  (SELECT TO_CHAR(b.OR_IN_DTTM,'YYYYMMDDHH24') OR_date, COUNT(*) record_count
                FROM hsa_tgt.PICIS_OR b
                GROUP BY TO_CHAR(b.OR_IN_DTTM,'YYYYMMDDHH24')) b1
    WHERE a1.date_field  = b1.OR_date (+)
    GROUP BY a1.date_field, b1.OR_date, b1.record_count
    HAVING (TO_DATE(a1.date_field,'YYYYMMDDHH24') BETWEEN '01-Jan-2006' AND '31-Jan-2006')
    ORDER BY a1.date_field;

    I am currently using a ODBC driver provided by Esker to link into an IBM Informix Database 4.2When compiling a link in Crystal the SQL for this comes out as shown bellow with a syntax error. FROM   table1 LEFT OUTER JOIN table2But if I amend this to as bellow it works  FROM   table1, OUTER table2How can I change the term used in Crystal XI (11) for outer joins, I found some documentation on how to do this for version 7 (link bellow) but not for XI, thanks for any help. http://technicalsupport.businessobjects.com/KanisaSupportSite/search.do;jsessionid=0762FD2EDFF69A9AD85E7FB81E7E6573?cmd=displayKC&docType=kc&externalId=c2003023&sliceId=&dialogID=360384&stateId=1%200%20356275

    Jason, Save out a copy of the report, and then open it,  if you use a command, you should be able to put your own SQL in.  Database, set datasource, create new connection, select your data source,  select add command.
    Your SQL statement will go in the command.

  • Popup LOV fails in firefox when using an outer join!!!

    I have a popup lov which contains at least 2 outer joins in my query. The popup renders fine in IE but i get the error message:
    "Popup List of Values query is invalid, a display and a return value are needed, the column names need to be different"
    when launching the popup from Firefox (1.5.0.2)
    Anyone got any idea why this works in IE but fails in Firefox?
    Cheers

    Hello,
    Duncan – If you'll run your example code on SQL*Plus, you'll see that for department "OPERATIONS" there is no returned value. This could happen with outer join. The problem can be with the way FF is interpreting this non-value. I didn't try it my self, but maybe if you'll use display null value with your LOV, it will solve the problem. Another possible option is to use NVL() on the returned value.
    Chris – Some of the Apex team members, like Carl, are using FF as their main browser. There are some compatibility issues with the last version of FF, but from that, to your conclusion of Apex only support IE, there's a long road.
    Regards,
    Arie.

  • Using full outer join of subqueries named using with clause

    Hi,
    I am trying to create a view which is having 2 subqueries vol1 & vol2 with WITH clause. I am joining those 2 subqueries in the main query with FULL OUTER JOIN.
    When i compile that view in a tool like pl/sql developer, It has been compiled successfully.
    But when i call the view creation script from SQL command prompt, It is throwing error as
    from vol1 FULL JOIN vol2 o ON (vol1.ct_reference = vol2.ct_reference and vol1.table_name = vol2.table_name
    ERROR at line 29:
    ORA-00942: table or view does not exist
    Kindly advise whats going wrong.

    that's line 29. Maybe you get a better idea if you strip your operation of all the unneccessary elements until it works.
    There are some known bugs with subquery factoring (aka with clause) and also with ANSI join syntax, but it is hard to tell what happens here based on your description. But one thing is strange - if it is not a result of formatting (not formatting): I would expect the asterisk beneath the unknown table and not beneath the key word FULL.
    P.S.: my editor makes me think it's rather a proportional font thing. Have I already said that I don't like proportional font for SQL code examples?

  • How to use multiple outer join in ODI

    SELECT
    Count(*)
    FROM
    student S,
    department D,
    course C
    WHERE
    D.S_Name=S.S_Name
    AND D.Dept_Name = C.Dept_Name (+)
    and S.C_Name =C.C_Name (+)
    And (D.Dept_ID = 1);
    I run this query. I got an ORA-01417 error.

    In topology change the join option to Ordered ISO
    then rewrite your query with ANSI syntax.
    SELECT
    Count(*)
    FROM
    student S join department D on D.S_Name=S.S_Name,
    student S right outer join course C on S.C_Name =C.C_Name,
    department D right outer join course C on S.C_Name =C.C_Name
    where
    (D.Dept_ID = 1);
    First verify the code in sql client befor implementing it in ODI

  • Oracle 8i Full Outer Join Syntax

    Can someone please help me run this on Oracle 8i:
    SELECT
    R.CUSTOMER_NUM,
    R.SURNAME_NM,
    R.FIRST_NM,
    R.STREET_NM,
    R.PROV_CD,
    R.CITY_NM,
    R.POSTL_CD,
    W.ADDR_TWO_DESC,
    C.RTL_CO_NUM,
    C.CARD_NUM
    FROM
    RTL_CUST R
    FULL OUTER JOIN WHLSL_CUST W ON (R.CUST_NUM = W.CUST_NUM)
    FULL OUTER JOIN CUSTOMER_CARD C ON (T.CUST_NUM = C.CUST_NUM)
    I only know the ANSI syntax. Whats the old one?

    Is this correct:
    SELECT R.CUST_NUM, R.SURNAME_NM, R.FIRST_NM, R.STREET_NM, R.PROV_CD, R.CITY_NM, R.POSTL_CD, W.ADDR_TWO_DESC, NULL AS RTL_CO_NUM, NULL AS CARD_NUM
    FROM CCD_RTL_CUST R, CCD_WHLSL_CUST W WHERE R.CUST_NUM (+) = W.CUST_NUM
