Hour/Min column in the Time Dimension

Please can someone help me with the script to fill in the time Dimension Table that contains a column of hours/min. Here's my Time_D structure:

Year
Quarter
Month
Name of the month
Week
Day
Hour
Min

Also is it a good practice to have the hour/Min column in the time Dimension?


Thanks in advance.

B,
Sorry if I confused things a bit...
I wanted to say in the MDB layer, you can model a dimension table (time) with the path complete drill (year-> quarter-> month-> day-> hour-> Min)
This a logical table would have two sources of logical table to map required fields of your two tables of phyiscal (Date_Dim and Time_Dim)
You must define the levels of content accordingly for each logical table source, so the user in responses can perfectly break of the year all the way up to Min, their sound a single dimension, actually its two tables and the BI server switches according to the levels of content in the LTS.

Sorted?
Let us know if you get the probs.

  • Add the quarter to the time dimension

    Hello

    We have created a time dimension using the owb wizzard, but did not include the quarter level. Is it possible to add it to the dimension later without deleting a re-creation of the entire dimension?
    A new time dimension would probably be corrupt all the cubes (data and metadata), so I would avoid that.
    Any ideas?

    See you soon,.

    Knut

    Hi Knut

    Yep, should be possible.

    Change the dimension and select the quarter level in the levels Panel, and then click quarter in hierarchies pane to add it to the hierarchy. You can then delete the link and autobind on details for the physical links to the underlying table. On the hierarchies pane, there is a button "Create map" that will regenerate the mapping to load the time dimension.

  • help me create a column with the time format

    Hi all

    Please help me find the query to create a table with 3 columns and insert the following data

    ENTITYID | CHGDATE | CHGTIME

    ======= ==================== ========

    4214984 | 2 OCTOBER 06 12.00.00.000000 AM | 07:23:57

    4214985 | 12.00.00.000000 11-SEP-08 AM | 10:52:19

    and update of the first line of the above table as follows
    ---------------------
    4214984 | 2 OCTOBER 06 07.23.57.000000 AM | 07:23:57
    ------------------------
    you will need to update the CHGDATE column with the time of the CHGTIME column.

    Sorry, we need a new format around the to_date

    select to_date(to_char(chgdate, 'mm/dd/yyyy') || ' ' || to_char(chgtime, 'hh24:mi:ss'), 'mm/dd/yyyy hh24:mi:ss') from etime3;
    

    This should telll Oracle to the format of the generated string. If this isn't the case, run select with the to_char two as separate columns to see that get us the data that we expect.

  • How to create the time dimension?

    Hi friends...
    I'm working on OBIEE since the last 2 months.
    I created a few reports; I don't have the time dimensions in the layer of MDB.

    Now, I need to give a few zoom feature in my reports. Almost all of the reports have the time factor.
    As year, month, and day. can I still create the time dimension based on the exercise.
    (1) what is - that I think give the zoom feature in the reports.
    (2) can we have multiple time dimensions in the MDB layer?


    Thank you very much in advance.

    Toony,

    You can create a time dimension based on the fiscal year, and you can have many dimensions of time within a business model. There is a lot of documentation, of messages and articles about dimensions. If you haven't already done so, check out page 126 of the Server Management Guide and read this article. That should at least help you get started on building your time dimension.

  • 1 h period and the time dimension

    Hi all

    1. I'm new to OWB and I was wondering is it possible to force the default time dimension (done using Wizard) to have some 'small' level then a day (say, 1 h)?
    If this is not the case, have you tried to manually update the dimension and mapping?
    Or it is better to leave default dimension and start with my own time dim?

    2. What is the difference between the dimension created as the dimension "time" and with a similar but defined content as typicall dim? (issues / analysis performance)?

    Thanks in advance.
    See you soon,.
    B

    Hello

    OWB can create dimensions date to the level of the day.
    You can use this dimension as a source of a map of your own to create a time dimension to the level of the time (enclose it with values of 1-24).

    Have you considered using a date on the day level dimension and a second dimesion of time containing only 1-24 hours?

    With the help of the wizard makes living easier, but there is no advantage in terms of performance in relation to a normal size. Be sure to add all the clues you need.

    Kind regards
    Carsten.

  • Best practices for the Time Dimension

    I'm a new contour design. I need to set up a time for daily dimension, perpetually. In the past I would set up a member years i.e. 2010, 2011, 2012... and a second dimension with the days i.e. Jan 01, 02 Jan.

    Is there a better way than that? I would like if possible do so in only one dimension.

    Have you looked at the Date-Time dimension? It's ASO-only, but has a ton of features:
    http://download.Oracle.com/docs/CD/E12825_01/EPM.111/eashelp/frameset.htm?sel_cal_hier.htm

    He put everything in a single dimension, btw. I've seen similar dimensions in cubes BSO stored in sparse form. Shudder.

    Minimum block size if the period is dense and a difference very little time to retrieve time for these members, because they will be calculated on the fly.
    Normally most of the Parents members of dense accounts and Dimension of the period is marked as dynamic Calc.

  • display the time dimension members

    Hello

    We have implemented beginning period Jan and end of period of Mar for real member of the scenario.

    in the form of planning, we want to show that these three periods but we see all periods / other periods are read-only.

    Thanks for help

    How about using essbase substitution variables, for example actPeriod1 defined as Jan, actPeriod2, defined as the Feb, actPeriod3 defined as Mar and do the same thing for months of forecasts.
    Then put these substitution variables, as in the form instead of the month.
    Then when the change of months, you can simply change the substitution variables and you won't have to touch the forms, evolution of the substitution variables can be scripted with maxl and group upward and demand.

  • Time Dimension type to different values in the attributes - Bug or feature?

    Not sure if this is a bug or a feature.

    But if there is a time dimension hierarchies. You have the option of specifying different values for member attributes in different hierarchies.

    For example.

    A hierarchy has MIN_ID for its members and uses MIN_END_DATE for its end_date

    Hierarchy B has MIN_ID for its members and uses SESS_END_DATE for its end_date

    According to this message and a comment by David Greenfield:

    Gender issue when several mappings for different hierarchies

    "You try to map the same attribute, SORT, on different columns in two hierarchies? In other words, what do you expect the same Member to have different values for the attribute in the two different hierarchies? If so, then this is a problem because a member must have the same value for the attribute independently of the hierarchy. »

    Unlike a dimension of the user, a time dimension seems to allow this and it seems to work as expected. Behavior in this case is the difference between a user and the time dimension?

    Your description of the structure of the dimension is very clear, but I have a question about system requirements. When you say you want to the time running from 17:00 to 16:59, do you mean that the calculation must spand day? for example "5:00 PM: Jan 1, 2012" to "4:59 PM: 2 Jan 2012".» If so, then this you is impossible by making a loop only the dimension of time-seconds. Or do you really mean it must wrap around the same day. for example "5:00 PM: Jan 1, 2012" at "11:59 PM: 1 Jan 2012", then again to "00:00 AM: 1 Jan 2012" to "4:59 PM: 1 Jan 2012"?»»»

    If you want the calculation for the period of days, then I think you need to spend TIME on the DATE dimension level. You can leave some MINUTES in the second dimension, which can be a dimension of standard user. You must then two levels of the DAY (with different members) in the date dimension - each with a different set of the child. You can assign the TIME_SPAN to the TIME level 1.

  • S.o. of time Dimension

    Hi all

    In the project current works unlike the day regular 00:00 to 24:00 that the day of the transaction is divided into two shifts; Maj r: 06:00 to 21:00 SHIFT B: 21:00-06:00 the next morning.

    The customer wants to run reports on transactions happening in one day that spread over two shifts and would then like to generate MIN, MAX, AVG time. My time dimension currently has the following columns:

    Timestamp
    Year
    Month
    Week
    Day


    You don't know how to accommodate the transaction date that is a "single day" that falls within "two days".

    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Concerning
    B

    Hi B,

    I hope that you do not use W_DAY_D / W_MCAL_DAY_D the granularity that is Date and time. You said that you have Timestamp in your time Dimension, so I'll give you the solution accordingly.

    Add two columns in your time Dimension. A Transaction shift and others for the day of the Transaction. Your ETL must fill these columns, accordingly as you mentioned logic. If you have a similar logic for Transaction week / month / year, you add the columns accordingly.

    Now, once you expose these columns in the presentation layer and the users query your metrics made against trading day, you will get your desired results. Please note that your should be attached to the dimension of time at the level of the timestamp and not date.

    Please let me know if it solves your problem.

    Thank you

  • Time dimension

    I have the CSV file as a data source. I've created tables to CSV files and then them modeled in SPR and then created time on that dimension. But the time dimension does not work. Is it because the data source is a CSV file?

    Any help appreciated

    Where is their total content large?

    This one is from SampleApp, as you can see there is a "time Total" and it is reported as "grand total" (a box set).

    So maybe just remove your and build it yet keeping the grand total and rename the level of detail of the "year".

    Add your unique column it and set it as the key level (and also key chronological).

  • Time dimensions in double

    Hi all

    I think I have a simple requirement but I don't how it works:

    I have some dimensions and a fact table. In my table of facts, I have 2 foreign key on my dimension of time.
    When I import my tables and check the consistency, I get errors: "in double foreign key. Delete"(don't remember complete sentence)
    This is the first point that I do not understand. Why can I have not more than 1 foreign key?

    The second point is to know how to have 2 time dimensions. In the MDB, I duplicate my time dimension. But which to choose? I tested with a foreign key and complex join (and foreign keys 2 or 1 in Physics) and I still have the same result (bad).

    So can someone explain to me how configure both physical than MDB joins use a dimension greater than 1 hour (without creating a new physical dimension of course)

    Thank you

    Hello

    Create table aliases (as they play different roles) for the dimension of time in the physical layer and combining your done using physical joints.

    After importing to the physical layer, if duplicate keys exist, delete the duplicate keys.

    In this scenario, two keys will be exist on the fact for the time dimension, remove those and create the joins between aliases.

    Thank you
