What to do when a join is simple when it works, and not when it is external?

Retrieve each table in a separate model, transforming the field to join it is the same type in both tables - Join these two models in a data warehouse model. Explanation: Under Oracle 9, it is impossible to do outer joins between fields of different types.

Why the size of the data warehouse database keeps growing?

From 10g release 2 edition, a basket is added. When deleting a table, it is sent to the trash to be recovered. In an ELT so that the table is finally abolished on, you must change the parameter DropTable connection Datawarehouse. * Right click on the Data Warehouse, Properties. * In SQL Syntax tab, set "PURGE" in "Drop Parameter Table". * Confirm by clicking OK.

Modeling Techniques

Why does WeekOf may not return the expected week?

The function returns WeekOf week of the year with a value between 1 and 53. WeekOf uses ISO 8601 to define the week of the year: a week is from Monday to Sunday and the first calendar week of the year is one that includes the first Thursday of the year (the first week of the year that includes at least four days). Therefore, if the first calendar day of the year is Friday, Saturday or Sunday, WeekOf returns the last week of the year prior to the first, the first two or three days of the calendar year. Similarly, if the last calendar day of the year is Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday, WeekOf returns 1 (the first week of the next calendar year) for the last, the last two or three days of the calendar year . To learn more about ISO weeks For example, if you want the first day of the year at week 1, you can replace the formula WeekOf ([Date]) by If (And (MonthOf ([Date]) = 1; WeekOf ([Date] )> = 52), 1; WeekOf ([Date])).

How to transform N columns of N rows?

There are 2 solutions: SOLUTION N°1 http://myportal.fr/docs/video/faq/colonne_ligne.swf Problematic How to turn a record with data in columns in many rows? Constraints The solution proposed here can be applied if and only if the number of columns into rows and their labels are fixed. Solution Three models will be needed to address this problem. Model 1: Purpose: Replace the columns into rows. Content: This model must contain at least N columns into rows. Operations: Create a model with N destination fields as columns, and other elements of the source table to be used for reporting. Model 2: Objective: Create a table containing many rows as columns into rows. Content: This model must include only one field having as value the number of the line. Operations: * Create an Excel file containing at least as many rows as columns to transform. Excel * Create a model containing a single field (the number of the line). * Add a filter in Excel template on the destination field will go to the first N lines, N being the number of columns into rows. Model 3: Objective: To transform the N columns of N rows. Content: This model is the final step of this modeling technique. The N columns will be transformed into N lines, the data initially stored in a column being a single field. Operations: * Create a simple data warehouse model, and walk in the mapping models 1 and 2 created previously. No joins must be created to perform a Cartesian product: the number of rows of Model 1 is multiplied by N lines of Model 2, to obtain the desired number of rows. * Add fields to destination fields of model 1, except those corresponding to the N columns. * Create the field that will contain the converted values of the column. Each model line has been a duplicated N times, we recover the first duplicate the first column, the second the second column, etc.. To do this, create the field turned following: If ([(Model 2). (No. lig)] = 1 [(Model 1). (Column 1)] If ([(Model 2). (No. lig )] = 2 [(Model 1). (Column 2 )];(...))) SOLUTION N°2 http://myportal.fr/docs/video/faq/ligne_colonne.swf A possible solution to complete the transaction ONEPIVOT is as follows: You must first identify the fields that used to create the transaction ONEPIVOT: * The key grouping (fields in line) * field(s) used at the pivot fields (columns) * The value to insert in the columns. To illustrate the methodology, we will start the next case. A table contains sales data by year, month, commercial article and the Turnover. The goal is to create a monthly column. * Key group: Year, Article, Commercial * Field of Pivot Month * Value: Turnover You will then have to create two models. 1st model Objective: To create the different columns Handling: create as many fields as calculated columns to create, affecting the value column via a proper test. 2nd model Objective: aggregate lines Handling: Create a line for each key together.

How to make a table with floating cummulative ?

Problematic How do to create a table containing floating cummulative. Ex: In a table containing the turnover indicator and month online: * Line "January 2007" must contain the turnover February 2006 to January 2007 * Line "February 2007" must contain the turnover March 2006 to February 2007 * Line "March 2007" must contain the turnover from April 2006 to March 2007 Constraints The solution described below can be applied in the case of a modeling star, because the final model (the one used by MyReport Builder) must be "unloaded". Solution Model 1: Objective: Prepare "axis time" used in combination. Content: This model must be traceable to a line every couple years, months, and also include the year / start month accumulation. Ex: In the above example, it takes a cumulative rolling 12 months, so the entry for January 2007 will also be a reference to February 2006. Operations: * Create a model DW calling "A Lap Accumulation", using as source model provided by the time axis Report One. * Select the field "Year", "YearMonth", then create a field turned "YearMonth-11" (StrToCurr ([YearMonth])-If ([Month] <= 11, 99, 11)). * Rename fields in "Year Accumulation", "YearMonth Accumulation" and "Accumulation YearMonth-11. * To go back no further than a line by Year / Month, check the "no duplicates". Model 2: Objective: To provide users Builder in the final model fields to accumulate. Content: The time axis combination must be added to the final model. Operations: * Add the model "A Accumulation Lap" to the final model, without linking it to other fields. * Add fields to destination fields of the model "A Accumulation Tps. Creating the dashboard: Objective: Display for monthly online sales accumulated over the 12 months. Content: The operation carried out in MyReport Builder will allow you to duplicate rows of turnover as many times as necessary to accumulate. Ex: In the case of a combined 12-month rolling a line of turnover dated of 05/01/2007 will be used (ie duplicate) for the cumulative turnover from January to December 2007, but not for cumulative sales from January 2008. Operations: * Add the field "YearMonth Accumulation" line and the turnover indicator. * Create the filter cover: "YearMonth Invoice" between "YearMonth-11 Accumulation" and "Accumulation YearMonth.

How to convert a TIMESTAMP field in time?

A field (digital) TIMESTAMP stores the number of seconds since 01/01/1970. To create from the Timestamp field of type date in MyReport Data, using the formula: trunc ([Timestamp] / 86400) 25569. Explanation: -> Timestamp/86400: number of days since 01/01/1970. -> 25569: numeric value of the date 01.01.1970.

Select Then in the main interface aggregation average.

How to make a calculated field in the spreadsheet with references RC?

You have the CA fields and Budget in your table. Want to add a calculated field = Budget Gap-CA. These two fields from two different queries. You are therefore obliged to create a calculated field in the spreadsheet. Your indicators are in column. The formula of the field deviation is therefore: RC [-1]-RC [-2] Explanation R (Row) corresponds to the line, the deviation is on the same line as CA and Budget C (Column) corresponds to the column, the Budget is a deviation to the left column, then it specifies [-1], the CA is two columns to the left of deviation, so we specify [-2]. If the indicator were online, we have R [-1] CR [-2] C PS: the use of references RC course is not mandatory. It is quite possible to use the names of the indicators in the form of deferral
