Using Merge In BO Edge 3.0 wi an XL Spreadsheet

I have a quey written against our data warehouse and I am trying to use an Excel 07 Spreadsheet to "filter" the data. I have followed every thread I can find on the subject, downloaded the BO Edge PDF and read over the section on Merging data more times than I care to mention and I still connot get the merge to work! When I view my report in Edge, it does not seem to be restricting the data to what is in both sources, however, when I save the report as an XL spreadsheet, the correct data is there. Anybody experience this, and more importantly, anyone have a solution????

Hi Mohan,
there is no difference between Edge and Enterprise regarding the Client/Server Tool separation. Your client tools are in both cases part of the server download package.
After unzipping the files, there ought to be some folders which include the files of the client tool installation. The Universe Designer is also part of the Edge Client tools.
Best regards,
Sebastian

So why do you expect that it worùs otherwise?simply

Inserting values using merge

Hi everyone,
I need help with inserting values using merge.
* I need to check all the units in a parent category. For example, NF_ARTICLECATEGORYID = 7462 is a parent category.
* Im going to compare all the units in the parent category(7642) to the units in a subcategory (8053).
* If the units in parent category(7642) is not present in the subcategory(8053) then the units will be inserted in the same table.
table structure:
Table name : ARTICLECATEGORYACCESS
Fields: IP_ARTICLECATEGORYACCESSID
NF_ARTICLECATEGORYID
NF_UNITID
NF_USERID
N_VIEW
N_EDIT
Sample data:
CREATE TABLE articlecategoryaccess (
IP_ARTICLECATEGORYACCESSID NUMBER(5),
NF_ARTICLECATEGORYID NUMBER (10),
NF_UNITID NUMBER (10),
NF_USERID NUMBER (10)
N_VIEW INT,
N_EDIT INT);
INSERT INTO articlecategoryaccess VALUES (255583, 7642, 29727, NULL, 1 ,1);
INSERT INTO articlecategoryaccess VALUES (243977,7642,29728, NULL, 1 ,1);
INSERT INTO articlecategoryaccess VALUES (240770,7642,29843, NULL, 1 ,1);
INSERT INTO articlecategoryaccess VALUES (243413,7642,29844, NULL, 1 ,1);
INSERT INTO articlecategoryaccess VALUES (274828,7642,44849, NULL, 1 ,1);
INSERT INTO articlecategoryaccess VALUES (274828,8053,44849, NULL, 1 ,1);
Units ID 29727, 29728, 29843, 29844, 44849 has access to parent category 7642.
The units id 29727, 29728, 29843, 29844 dont have access to subcategory 8053.
29727, 29728, 29843, 29844 should be inserted in the same table and will have an access to 8053.
After they are inserted, it should look like this
IP_ARTICLECATEGORYACCESSID     NF_ARTICLECATEGORYID     NF_UNITID NF_USERID N_VIEW N_EDIT
255583     7642     29727 null 1 1
243977     7642     29728 null 1 1
240770     7642     29843 null 1 1
243413     7642     29844 null 1 1
274828     7642     44849 null 1 1

new value     8053     29728 null 1 1
new value     8053     29727 null 1 1
NOTE: IP_ARTICLECATEGORYACCESSID is a sequence and it should be unique
DECLARE

MINUS
SELECT *

WHERE nf_articlecategoryid = 8053) e
ON (1 = 2)
WHEN NOT MATCHED THEN
INSERT (b.ip_articlecategoryaccessid, b.nf_articlecategoryid, b.nf_unitid, b.NF_USERID, b.N_VIEW, b.N_EDIT)
VALUES (articlecategoryaccessid_seq.nextval, 8053, e.nf_unitid, null, 1, 1);
END;
i got an error after running the script:
*Cause:    An UPDATE or INSERT statement attempted to insert a duplicate key.
For Trusted Oracle configured in DBMS MAC mode, you may see
this message if a duplicate entry exists at a different level.
*Action:   Either remove the unique restriction or do not insert the key.
why would it be duplicated? its a sequence and its unique.. I dont know, maybe there is something wrong my script..
Any help is appreciated..
Ed

Ed,
1. What is the current value of the Sequence? Does the current value of sequence exist in the table? If yes, then increment the sequence to a value that is not present in the Table.
2. Do you have any unique constraint on any of the columns that you are inserting?
I have to ask you again, Why are you insisting on Merge statement when a simple Insert can do the job for you? Don't you feel that the below specified Merge statement is making things look more Complicated than they actually are, do you?
Think on it and then proceed. I hope these pointers help you to resolve the issue.

EMOD - Parse error while using merge fields

Hello Everyone,
We are using EMOD for email campaigns. We have renamed "Contact" object to "Rep Contact". When I insert merge fields on Rep Contact object, I get parse error message...
Parse error in file at line 40: Could not find matching '}' for reference to variable at line 39
Has anyone else come across this? Are there any restrictions in EMOD for using merge fields?
Thanks.

Thanks VK. I checked the source code and it is still perplexing why this error is coming up. It works fine without merge fields. I am pasting the section of html code with merge fields...

Is it possible to use MERGE with sql*plus and if yes how?

Hello everybody,
I have an xls file and I have to load its data with sql*loader, but instead of "APPEND" operation stated in the control file I need MERGE operation.Here is what my control file contains:
LOAD DATA
INFILE 'C:\WORK\DSK_WH\LOAD_FIRST\sqlldr\data.csv'
BADFILE 'C:\WORK\DSK_WH\LOAD_FIRST\sqlldr\p_badfile.txt'
APPEND
INTO TABLE D_ACCOUNT_NAMES_TMP
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ";"
TRAILING NULLCOLS
(account_number , consignment, sub_consignment, consign_sub_consign, account_name_bg, account_number_2, consign_parent_2, account_name_bg_2, account_number_3, account_name_bg_3, account_number_4, account_name_bg_4, account_number_5 , ACCOUNT_NAME_BG_5 ).
How can I use merge in this case , instead of insert ?
Regards,
Maria

I'm not sure if there is any MERGE thing in SQL*Loader, but you can have a backup table which gets loaded by SQL*Loader and then use MERGE statement from backup to the original table, if your data is not huge to become a performance barrier. This is just a suggestion, may be you can try some reading of SQL*Loader here.

You need to show the DDL of your target table: dbo.tblSwDM_dim_VQ_test.
Do you have a column named [Current] in this table?

Deploying Crystal Reports runtime using merge module failed

Hi,
I am having a problem when deploying Crystal Reports using merge module runtime, included into MS Visual Studio web setup project, when installing my *.msi with CR runtime on a completely clean PC (with only MS Windows installed). Error: Failed to register one of the Crystal Reportsu2019 *.dll because it could not find Microsoft visual C++ runtime (msvcr71.dll was not in Windows\System32 folder)
I am using Crystal Reports runtime merge modules, which I downloaded from here: https://websmp130.sap-ag.de/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/bobj_download/main.htm
I tried both cr120_mm.zip (Crystal Reports 2008) and cr121_mm.zip (Crystal Reports 2008 SP1)
cr120 could not find msvcr71.dll, cr121 could not find msvcp80.dll.
Steps to reproduce:
-          In MS Visual Studio 2008 create a new empty Web Setup Project.
-          Add Crystal Reports merge module CRRuntime_12_0.msm or CRRuntime_12_1.msm
-          Build *.msi
-          Try to install this *.msi on a completely clean PC. I tried it on Windows Server 2003 R2 SP3, which did not have msvcr71.dll or msvcp80.dll files in C:\Windows\System32 or in any other PATH folders.
-          During installation there is an error u2013 failed to register one of the Crystal Reportsu2019 *.dll
I am looking forward to hear from you.

After using Merge Clips in CS6, the resulting file now has two audio tracks

Hey guys,
I'm running into a weird problem after using the Merge Clips option. I have my video and audio selected, I've already moved the audio so they're both synced. It looks like this:
Then I use Merge Clips and pull the new file into a new sequence which in turn looks like this:
I checked the audio channels for both and apparently the merged file separated the left and right audio channels into two separate streams as opposed to using the single stream for both channels like the original.
Anyway to prevent it from doing this?

So according to Adobe's website: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/premierepro/cs/using/WS2bacbdf8d487e582-73725e6a12e5a6165d0-7f ff.html
At the very bottom they list limitations, one of which being "Merged clip audio results in mono track audio only."
Which I was familiar with before posting this. It doesn't seem however that the two tracks are mono it looks like they are two separate stereo tracks. If I mute one I still get audio in both speakers even though I muted the "right" track.
Here's what they look like in the audio mixer
The original only has the left most track.
I guess the only thing to do is just deal with it or render out each clip uncompressed to have that single audio channel.

#Error & #Syntax when we are using merged dimension in BO4.1 SP3

Dear All,
We are using BO4.1 SP3 and Bex query as datasource.
When we are trying to take merged dimensions in Report block its giving #Syntax Error.
When we are defining variable with merged dimension, its giving #Error message and the merged dimension is deleted from the definition.
Please guide how can I use merged dimension.
Kindly let us know if there are some update required in the current BO version.
Warm Regards,
Sonal

First things abt merge dimension is that merge is applicable only on dimension not on measures.
And other is dimension that are going to be merge should have same data type.
I think you should check these conditions then it will works.
Merge is nothing but full outer join between two data providers. It helps joining two result sets on webi level.
Kindly attach your screen shots so that it would be helpful.

so on and so forth...
Sometimes I have a new MODEL name coming in and I have to account for that and create a row in the table in that case.
Other times, all I have to do is INSERT new row in the table with new values.
Simple right?
Well, I was trying to use MERGE INTO but it is giving me problems...
This is what I did assuming I manually went in the table and added a new MODEL name and zeros for other columns before I did insertion...
#!/bin/bash
MODEL=$1
sqlplus -S username/password << EOF
whenever sqlerror exit 1;
set echo on
set verify off
INSERT INTO SEMANTIC.COUNT_STATISTICS(MODEL,NEW_COUNT,NEW_DATE,OLD_COUNT,OLD_DATE)
SELECT MODEL,
 SELECT COUNT(*)
 FROM TABLE(SEM_MATCH(
 ?s ?p ?o
 }',SEM_Models('$MODEL'),NULL,
 SEM_ALIASES(SEM_ALIAS('','http://VISION/DataSource/SEMANTIC#')),NULL))
 SYSDATE,
 NEW_COUNT,
 NEW_DATE
FROM SEMANTIC.COUNT_STATISTICS
WHERE MODEL = '$MODEL'
AND NEW_DATE = (
 select max(NEW_DATE)
 from SEMANTIC.COUNT_STATISTICS
 where MODEL = '$MODEL'
update SEMANTIC.COUNT_STATISTICS
set prnct_change =
 (NEW_COUNT-OLD_COUNT)/NULLIF(OLD_COUNT,0)*100
where model = '$MODEL'
AND NEW_DATE = (
 select max(NEW_DATE)
 from SEMANTIC.COUNT_STATISTICS
 where MODEL = '$MODEL'
COMMIT;
exit;
EOF
Now I added MERGE in front of INSERT so it checks if the MODEL name doesn't exist-it creates it:
MERGE INTO SEMANTIC.COUNT_STATISTICS s
USING (SELECT '${MODEL}' AS MODEL, 0 AS NEW_COUNT, SYSDATE AS NEW_DATE,
0 AS OLD_COUNT, SYSDATE AS OLD_DATE FROM dual) t
on (s.MODEL = t.MODEL)
when not matched then
INSERT (s.MODEL, s.NEW_COUNT, s.NEW_DATE, s.OLD_COUNT, s.OLD_DATE)
VALUES (t.MODEL, t.NEW_COUNT, t.NEW_DATE, t.OLD_COUNT, t.OLD_DATE);
My code combined...
#!/bin/bash
MODEL=$1
sqlplus -S username/password << EOF
whenever sqlerror exit 1;
set echo on
set verify off
MERGE INTO SEMANTIC.COUNT_STATISTICS s
USING (SELECT '${MODEL}' AS MODEL, 0 AS NEW_COUNT, SYSDATE AS NEW_DATE, 0 AS OLD_COUNT, SYSDATE AS OLD_DATE FROM dual) t
on (s.MODEL = t.MODEL)
when not matched then
INSERT (s.MODEL, s.NEW_COUNT, s.NEW_DATE, s.OLD_COUNT, s.OLD_DATE)
VALUES (t.MODEL, t.NEW_COUNT, t.NEW_DATE, t.OLD_COUNT, t.OLD_DATE);
exit;
EOF
model_exists () {
sqlplus -s username/password <<!

 SELECT count(MODEL)
 FROM SEMANTIC.COUNT_STATISTICS
 where MODEL ='$MODEL' AND TO_DATE(NEW_DATE, 'DD-MON-YY') = TO_DATE(SYSDATE, 'DD-MON-YY');
 exit;
modelcount=$(model_exists $1)
if [ "${modelcount:-0}" -ne 0 ]; then
 sqlplus -S username/password << EOF
 whenever sqlerror exit 1;
 set echo on
 set verify off
 INSERT INTO SEMANTIC.COUNT_STATISTICS(MODEL,NEW_COUNT,NEW_DATE,OLD_COUNT,OLD_DATE)
 SELECT MODEL,
SELECT COUNT(*)

'{?s ?p ?o }',SEM_Models('$MODEL'),NULL,
SEM_ALIASES(SEM_ALIAS('','http://VISION/DataSource/SEMANTIC#')),NULL))
 SYSDATE,
 NEW_COUNT,
 NEW_DATE
 FROM SEMANTIC.COUNT_STATISTICS
 WHERE MODEL = '$MODEL'
 AND NEW_DATE = (
select max(NEW_DATE)
from SEMANTIC.COUNT_STATISTICS
where MODEL = '$MODEL'
COMMIT;
exit;
EOF
else
 sqlplus -S username/password << EOF
whenever sqlerror exit 1;
set echo on

UPDATE COUNT_STATISTICS

where model = '$MODEL'
AND NEW_DATE = (

COMMIT;
exit;

But this is creating two rows if it is a new MODEL, ie:

OLD_COUNT
OLD_DATE

22-AUG-13
(null)
MODELNAME
0

(null)
This is not what I want. I want to create a new row if it doesn't exist and then update that same one for that day. But tomorrow it should INSERT a new one for that same MODEL name.
Does anyone see what I am doing wrong?

Hi,
MODEL is an Oracle keyword, so it causes confusion to have a column named MODEL. Errors like "Missing Keyword" can occur when Oracle thinks you're talking about the MODEL clause, rather than the column.
The best solution is not to use Oracle keywords (as found in v$reserverd words) for you own column names, or other identifiers. MODEL_NAME and MODEL_ID are good names for columns
If you really must use that column name, qualify it with the table name, and/or put the column name in double-quotes (case-sensitive), e.g.
count_statistics."MODEL"

SCD type 2 using merge

Hi ,
I'm trying to impliment SCD type 2 using Merge but unlike typical Merge where you have target and source table, my Inserts come from one table and updates/changes are determined from another table.. I have issue with updates.
below is structure of three tables :
Dimension Table :
VQ_id, VQ_name,
contact_type, center_node_id,
sed_id, eed_id,
IsCurrent, insert_date
VQ_Id is dimension ID based on which Inserts and undates are determined.
VQ_Name : type 1 change
Contact_type , Center_node_ID : type 2 changes
is Current : flag
sed_id , eed_id are start and end effective date ID's
Insert table :
VQ_id,VQ_Name ,Contact_Type , Center_node_ID , Sed_id , eed_id , Insert_date
from the above table, based on VQ_ID , new records are determined .
Updates/history records :
Type 2 changes are tracked based on below table..
VQ_ID, contact_type,
center_node_id, Start_Effective_Date,
CT_ID, Submit_Date
Based on VQ_ID , contact_type, center_node_id,
Start_Effective_Date , end effective date are determined.
Any help in this regard is appreciated...
Thanks ,
Vishal.

Need Help Can i use Merge command along with exist function in oracle?

I am using Merge command to update the destination table and updating the rows which are already in the destination table.
But what i want is to delete the existing rows from the destination table and insert fresh rows instead of updating the existing rows in the destination table.
So can we use exist function to check the existing rows and delete them and use merge command to insert the rows in the table.

You definitely need to do a DELETE then INSERT since MERGE will not delete rows, although I'm not really sure what that gets you since the net effect would be the same as a MERGE over the same pair of tables.
If you really want to do it this way, then I would likely do something like:
DELETE FROM target_table
WHERE (columns_you_would_match_on) IN (SELECT columns_you_would_match_on
FROM source_table
WHERE predicate_you_would_use_in_using);
INSERT INTO target_table (column_list)
SELECT column_list
FROM source_table
WHERE predicate_you_would_use_in_using;John

Migration of million rows from remote table using merge

I need to migrate (using merge) almost 15 million rows from a remote database table having unique index (DAY, Key) with the following data setup.
DAY1 -- Key1 -- NKey11
DAY1 -- Key2 -- NKey12
DAY2 -- Key1 -- NKey21
DAY2 -- Key2 -- NKey22
DAY3 -- Key1 -- NKey31
DAY3 -- Key2 -- NKey32
In my database, I have to merge all these 15 million rows into a table having unique index (Key); no DAY in destination table.
First, it would be executed for DAY1 and the merge command will insert following two rows. For DAY2, it would update two rows with the NKey2 (for each Key) values and so on.
Key1 -- NKey11
Key2 -- NKey12
I am looking for the best possible approach. Please note that I cannot make any change at remote database.
Right now, I am using the following one which is taking huge time for DAY2 and so on (mainly update).
MERGE INTO destination D
USING (SELECT /*+ DRIVING_SITE(A) */ DAY, Key, NKey
               FROM source@dblink A WHERE DAY = v_day) S
ON (D.Key = S.Key)
WHEN MATCHED THEN
   UPDATE SET D.NKey = S.NKey
WHEN NOT MATCHED THEN
   INSERT (D.Key, D.NKey) VALUES (S.Key, S.NKey)
LOG ERRORS INTO err$_destination REJECT LIMIT UNLIMITED;Edited by: 986517 on Feb 14, 2013 3:29 PM

MERGE INTO destination D
USING (SELECT /*+ DRIVING_SITE(A) */ DAY, Key, NKey
               FROM source@dblink A WHERE DAY = v_day) S
ON (D.Key = S.Key)
WHEN MATCHED THEN
   UPDATE SET D.NKey = S.NKey
WHEN NOT MATCHED THEN
   INSERT (D.Key, D.NKey) VALUES (S.Key, S.NKey)
LOG ERRORS INTO err$_destination REJECT LIMIT UNLIMITED;The first remark I have to emphasize here is that the hint /*+ DRIVING_SITE(A) */ is silently ignored because in case of insert/update/delete/merge the driving site is always the site where the insert/update/delete is done.

Right now, I am using the following one which is taking huge time for DAY2 and so on (mainly update).The second remark is that you've realised that your MERGE is taking time but you didn't trace it to see where time is being spent. For that you can either use the 10046 trace event or at a first step get the execution plan followed by your MERGE statement.
LOG ERRORS INTO err$_destination REJECT LIMIT UNLIMITED;The third remark is related to the DML error logging : be aware that unique keys will empeach the DML error loggig to work correctly.

And finally I advise you to look at the following blog article I wrote about enhancing an insert/select over db-link

Insert with Select while Using Merge

Actual Query
MERGE INTO schema1.employees D
 USING (SELECT employee_id, salary, department_id FROM schema2.employees
 WHERE department_id = 80) S
 ON (D.employee_id = S.employee_id)
 WHEN MATCHED THEN
 UPDATE
 SET D.bonus = D.bonus + S.salary*.01
 WHERE (S.salary > 8000)
 WHEN NOT MATCHED THEN INSERT (D.employee_id, D.bonus)
 VALUES (S.employee_id, S.salary*.01)
 WHERE (S.salary <= 8000) Is there a possible way to write a select Query in Insert Statement while using Merge.
WHEN NOT MATCHED THEN
 INSERT
 SELECT * FROM schema2.employees
 WHERE S.salary <= 8000;

it works:
MERGE INTO fifapps.tes2
using dual
on (1=2)
when not matched then insert values(59,'yes');
commit;or
MERGE INTO fifapps.tes2
using dual
on (1=2)
when not matched then insert values ((select 99 from dual),(select'weii' from dual));
