Business Model - Table logic Source

Can someone give me details on exactly when you would follow scenario 1 when modeling a logical table and exactly when you would follow scenario 2, and what is the main difference in behavior between the two. It would help if someone could illustrate with joins of equivalent sql tables.


Scenario 1


You drag a second physical column of table on the logical table. This causes an additional field will appear in this list of logical tables in columns from another table to the original and causes a second table to appear under the original table in the source folder.


Scenario 2

You drag a second physical table to the existing source of the logical table of a logic table. The source of physical table appears on the surface, the same as before, but when you examine its properties you will see that the second table was joined to it.


Thanks for your comments,


Robert.

Scenario 1
---> It would be more economical and BI server is free to use his Intelligence to peak sources based on the extraction of columns in the criteria tab provide you do know the sources using the content tab.
In general, we're going to do this is when:
Extensions of dimension
Fragmentation
Global table

Scenario 2
---> In this case we force Server BI go as we said (which forces to use joins) and can be intelligence not to use BI
In general, we're going to do this is when:
Of fact extensions
10 g; What measures are based on certain conditions based on the dimensions, so we might have to add/map them and make
version of Siebel Analytics we used to go the aggregations based on the logical columns, it is not more than 10 g and 11 g.

Hope this helps

  • Several Sources of Table unique logic vs logical Source of Table

    OBIEE 11 g. I'm totally confused. Can someone help me with the following for me.

    I saw sources of logical table used in 2 ways. I have a table of 2 sources: CUSTOMER & ADDRESS. In the physical layer these 2 tables are related by _ID CUSTOMER in a 1:M relationship.  for example, a customer can have many addresses.

    Scenario # 1: MDB two tables form a logical table called CUSTOMER with 2 different sources logical tables that are CUSTOMER and ADDRESS.

    Scenario # 2: MDB two tables form a logical table named CUSTOMER with 1 table logic source called CLIENT only.

    What is the difference between the above 2 scenarios and what is the best to use to create the logical table source.

    Kind regards.

    Scenario # 1: MDB two tables form a logical table called CUSTOMER with 2 different sources logical tables that are CLIENT & ADDRESS.

  • OBIEE 10G - repository Business Model adding fact Table

    Hello

    I tried to search the forum for problems similar to this one, but did not find any thread that responded to my doubts.

    I'll try to explain this very well (without images it's complicated). Suppose we have a schema with the following tables:

    Dim_1, Dim_2, Dim_3, Dim_4, Dim_5, Fact_1, Fact_2

    Fact_1 is connected to Dim_1, Dim_2 and Dim_3
    Fact_2 is connected to Dim_2, Dim_3, Dim_4 and Dim_5

    And on the business of the repository model, we already have a model with the following tables:

    Dim_1, Dim_2, Dim_3 and Fact_1. It was the State of the repository, the last time that we have saved.

    Now, I want to add to the activity model, the table Fact_2 and the Dims that connect with Fact_2. What should I do here?

    If I drag the physical layer only the tables (Dim_4, Dim_5 and Fact_2 like Dim_1 and Dim_2 already exist in the business model) when I check on the business model of the table Fact_2 and direct joins diagram I see only joins Dim_4 and Dim_5 and not joined to the other two dimesion tables (Dim_1 and Dim_2). I don't know if OBIEE will always act as these joins are made or if I'm having problems when I'm working on presentation services.

    If I drag the physical layer, the tables (Dim_2, Dim_3, Dim_4, Dim_5 and Fact_2) I'll see all the joins, but I'll have on repeated business model tables, something like this:

    Dim_1, Dim_2, Dim_2, #1, Dim_3, Dim_3, #1, Dim_4, Dim_5, Fact_1 and Fact_2

    So what is the solution here? I have to redo everything I want to add something, and this situation occurs? Isn't his smart and there must be a better solution. I know that I can start direct joins manually, but that is the best solution that I can find in this situation?

    I hope that I was clear :)

    Thank you

    Hello

    I have proposed this approach because your layer of MDB was already designed with fact1 joins. If you have already designed MDB, once you drag fact1, fact2 & Sun 1-5 (after physical joins) complex join will be automatically created in MDB. Now that you're at halfway, it is the only way to include the tables.

  • Table repository - Business model - 10g OBIEE logical to physical table, column mapping is empty

    Hi, I'm really new to OBIEE 10 g.

    I've already implemented a database SQL Server 2005 in physics and import a vw_Dim_retail_branch view.

    The view has 3 columns: branch_id, branch_code, branch_desc.

    Now, I want to set up the business model to map this physical table (view).

    I created a new business model

    Adding new logic table Dim_retail_branch

    In sources, added the vw_Dim_retail_branch as a table source.

    But in the logical table source column mapping tab window, it is empty. I thought he should be able to identify all of the columns in vw_Dim_retail_branch, but no. The spectacle of the mapped column is checked.

    What should I do here? Each column type manually?

    Hello

    You can drag and drop the columns from the physical layer to layer MDB.

    Select 3 columns and drag and drop it to the logical column created in the MDB layer.

  • create a business model when there is only a single source table

    Hello
    How to create a business model when there is only a single source table in the physical layer



    Concerning
    Swathi

    It is very well possible and feasible. His name as a single Table model. Good example is HIS domain system where we have just one physical source. No need to create aliases in physics. Just use the same table twice in the MDB with a single logical table as a model made... As for example the number of users (aggregated). Then apply normal complex participate MDB and present in the presentation layer.

  • Wharton are logical, physical table Logical data Source

    Hello
    Can someone explain me in details what Wharton are logical table, given logical physical Source table.
    Any help of qucik will be graetly appreciated

    In OBI, there are three layers - physical, Business Model and mapping (MDB) and presentation.
    As the name of the physical layer contain mainly the physical appearance of the application as what connection to use, what schema (also the catalogue in the case of SQL server) for you connect and also which table to use. This layer confirms joins PK_FK for related tables. This layer represents mainly how the data was stored in the database layer.

    On top of this layer, you will have layer MDB. The place where all the work a developer begins. You will structure the accourding of tables for the needs of the company. The structure must be a STAR schema. All the entities in this layer are called logical because they are not directly to a database object that they provides a logical mapping to database entities. This becomes obvious when you use more than a logic Table Source (LTS) for your logical tables. A logical column may map to the number N of physical columns according to the context. You can also create unusable columns in this layer, which are quite logical in nature.

    I do not write anything on the presentation layer as it is not in your question. :)

    Hope this will help.

  • do not join a dimension or WARNING logical source is

    Hello friends,

    Suppose I have domain xyz, it is connected to xyz's business model and its physical catalog is xyz...

    Now I copied in the RPD even under another name such as "abc" in all the 3 layers.

    When I check the consistency of the MDB for xyz is having 2 warnings. Now, when I check consistency for abc, he 6 warnings in total count which are additional 4-error...

    Now when I see these warning for abc business model are substantially similar

    (1) logic made fact table abc has an aggregate made abc.abc source which do not adhere to a Dimension: abc Dim source at the right level of detail.

    (2) logical dimension table Dim abc has an abc source which do not adhere to any source of fact.

    even if the number of times I checked the knuckles and the content of these facts and dimensions of the abc model against xyz, I can't find difference but still why he put extra caution, I do not come to know, it's because of copy paste or something else?

    Thank you...

    OK guys... I deleted the hierarchy and recreated again, this solves my problem, it could be useful to others...

  • Table 2 sources in LTS but only 1 query?

    Hello

    I use obiee 10g.

    I have a DIM_A table with some data. Table DIM_A is of type 'SELECT' on the physical layer, and in this table, the data is filtered. I use ValueOf (NQ_SESSION. USER variable) to filter the data in this table DIM_A. Each user can see different data in this table.

    In table FACT_A are given for each user, so I always have to filter the data on FACT_A using values in the table DIM_A.

    I join in the physical layer.

    MDB I have two tables. All with a single logical table source. I added DIM_A second source 'required' to the existing table FACT_A source. So, I see 2 documents in the general tab of the source of the FACT_A table and also an inner join between them.

    But when I make the request only on FACT_A without dimension, or with another dimension, DIM_A is not present in the select generated so that the user can see the data that are not for him.

    I need to make it MANDATORY to join between FACT_A and DIM_A every time.

    Can you tell me how to simulate a mandatory join on these two tables?

    Hi cardel,

    If you have this scenario:

    Physical layer

    TABLE1:
    column A
    column B

    TABLE2
    column C
    column D

    Business model layer

    LTS1-2
    Table1 inner join TABLE2
    column A
    column B
    column C
    column D

    If you create a report and select column A ony, OBIEE will choose only table1: physical, if you select column A and C, OBIEE will select TABLE1 and TABLE2.

    If you want every time select OBIEE both tables, you have different choices:

    (1) use a left join instead of inner join
    (2) create a logical column like this: column = column-columnC + columnC, so if you choose the column one in answers, OBIEE is forced to also join TABLE2
    (3) use a dummy column in one of the physical table, for example a columnDummy inside the TABLE2 with 1 for each line, LTS1-2 in the where clause using culumnDummy = 1, so OBIEE do the join between TABLE1 and TABLE2 for each column you select in a report.

    Kind regards

  • Error creating of business model

    Hello

    I created my physical layer on a server data warehouse SQL with denormalised table without joins.

    When I try to create a business of this physical layer model, (drag the columns of 5 or more than one table) and I check the consistency, the error I get is: 38133 - table logical ERRORS: the logic Table < table name > is not attached to any other logical table.

    Is it mandatory for a physical to join view table?

    Table in physics or MDB layer had to have a join with any of the table, it could be a free table in training alias, which allows you to delete would help with consistency errors.

    If this is not help pls send me your SPR or screenshots to my email.

  • How to add an array of stand-alone physical layer to the Business Model

    Hello

    I have tables from 2 different database sources in my physical layer.

    My business model is currently using only the tables of a database. My second database in the physical layer, I don't need a single table and who will be an array of stand alone, to my presentation layer.

    1. must you go through my business layer or can it be added directly to the presentation layer. What are the steps?
    2. can I restrict permissions on this table stand alone to the administrator?

    Thank you.

    (1) create a view with a single column using sql (select 1 of the double) in the physical layer and attach it to the table using a complex join in the physical layer (1 = 1).
    A movement that set the column as a key in the physical layer and mdb to MDB.

    (2) you can restrict access to the presentation layer of table
    Double-click the table of presentation-> Permission-> here layer, you can restrict access by user or group

  • Text of loading files Business Modeler Demantra

    Hello, since I load three .txt files: sale, rental, article, Business Modeler, once I created a new data model.
    I specified the folder that contains the .txt files, when I created the template. I have to create a lot of load?

    Thnx.

    Hi ADGE,.

    To load the data from these three text files into the staging tables you can create a lot of charge containing 3 profiles viz for point, rental and sale. So clocked this load batch updates data in the respective T_src 3 tables.

    After having loaded the 3 staging tables with data from text files, run the EP_LOAD_MAIN procedure to import the data in the base that is elements, location and sales_data tables.

    If so, how to solve this problem.

    Help appreciated.

    It's expected OBIEE behavior, Alias only supports existing reports, running, but when you want to edit reports, you must use the Advanced tab, change. Then only the columns/tables available on the left side.
