SQL & PL/SQL :: External Table Query (compare Number Records In File With External Table)

Jan 23, 2013

I have got a procedure that successfully creates an oracle external table and populates it with the contents of a file. This works fine until I have a situation where one of the fields is a VARCHAR2(2) and I try to insert say, a 5 character value. When this happens the record in question does not get populated in the external table (and rightly so), but I could do with working out if there is a discrepancy in the number of records in the file and the number of records that actually make it into the table so I could inform the user that there is a problem.

I have attached the code that creates the external table and populates it.

SQL & PL/SQL :: External Table Does Not Show All Records

Jun 24, 2010

I have an external table as follows:

CREATE TABLE EXT1
(
COL1 NVARCHAR2(2000),
COL2 CLOB
)
ORGANIZATION EXTERNAL
( TYPE ORACLE_LOADER
DEFAULT DIRECTORY FILE_DIR
ACCESS PARAMETERS
( RECORDS DELIMITED BY NEWLINE
FIELDS TERMINATED BY '|'
MISSING FIELD VALUES ARE NULL
( "COL1" CHAR,
[code]....

From here I can count all records and the total number of records matching the file record count, but could not read the clob columns. it's not picking up the values. but if I take this out

( "COL1" CHAR,
"COL2" RAW
)

then I am missing the record counts.Also if you put all varchar and char, that also missing the count against the file.

SQL & PL/SQL :: Insert All Records From External Table Into Export Table

Mar 25, 2013

following is the requirement

External Table
WKSHT_FILE_EXT
wksht_line
Export Table
Wksht_export
global_idvarchar2(10)
wksht_linevarchar2(250)
[code]....

Step 1.Insert all records from the external table into the export table. Truncate the export table first

Step 2.Read in a record from the export map table

Step 3.Search through export table records looking for the key words BRANCH =. Compare the branch code with the branch code form the map table

Step 4.If a match is found mark all records in the export table for the worksheet with the global ID from the export map table as follows..The first line of a worksheet is marked by the words WKSHTS..The last line of the work sheet is marked by the words COMPANY CONFIDENTIAL..We will need to capture the line break so also mark the next line after the COMPANY CONFIDENTIAL line

Step 5.Continue with Steps 2 - 4 until all records have been processed from the export map table.

first I have to create a procedure ti insert data from external table to export table.Global id will be blank.it will be updated by the mapping table's Global Id when The EB COLUMN's data(i.e 8p,2Betc ) will match with the BRANC=NA,2Betc of the datasheet loaded from the external table.. FOLLOWING IS THE SAMPLE DATASHEET

WKSHTS AAAAA BBBBBBBBBBB ELECTRONICS INC. TIME REPORT-DATE PAGE
SORT - BR, SLSREP AEC FIELD SALES REPRESENTATIVE 16:14 09/21/12 1
BRANCH = 2B
EMPLOYEE NAME SALVAAG, GREGG Days in the Month 28
[code]....

THERE ARE 2 pages..I have to split this LONG REPORT STORED IN WKSHT_LINE COLUMN OF EXPORT TABLE to 2 records..like wise 500 pages are there means 500 records.. AND THEN FIND BRANCH= after that which two words will come i.e NA,2B etc if it will MATCH WITH MAPPING TABLE"S EB COLUMN"S DATA,THEN MAPPING TABLE's GLOBAL ID WILL BE UPDATED TO EXPORT TABLE's GLOBAL ID WHICH IS BLANK

SQL & PL/SQL :: Oracle 10g - Update Records In Target Table Based On Records Coming In From Source

Jun 1, 2010

I am trying to update records in the target table based on the records coming in from source. For instance, if the incoming record is present in the target table I would update them in the target else I would simply insert. I have over one million records in my source while my target has 46 million records. The target table is partitioned based on calendar key. I implement this whole logic using Informatica. Looking at the informatica session log I find that the informatica code is perfectly fine but its in the update part it takes long time (more than 5 days to update one million records). find the TARGET TABLE query and the UPDATE query as below.

TARGET TABLE:
CREATE TABLE OPERATIONS.DENIAL_REGRET_FACT
(
CALENDAR_KEY INTEGER NOT NULL,
DAY_TIME_KEY INTEGER NOT NULL,
SITE_KEY NUMBER NOT NULL,
RESERVATION_AGENT_KEY INTEGER NOT NULL,
LOSS_CODE VARCHAR2(30) NOT NULL,
PROP_ID VARCHAR2(5) NOT NULL,

Compare Records In A Table In Both Oracle - MSSQL?

Jan 13, 2009

I am trying to compare records in a table in both Oracle and MSSQL database against a single standard dataset in my test case. However, I'm getting different results for each when I sort using a "order by".

select COL1 from TABLE1 order by COL1

In MSSQL, I get:
COL1
=====
A
A.
A++
A++.

In ORACLE, I get:
COL1
=====
A
A++
A++.
A.

I mean, oracle result some what makes sense, because "." has bigger ascii value than "+". But is there anyway to make the ORACLE sort order look exactly like MSSQL result?

PL/SQL :: Oracle 11g Table Function Returns No Records On First Call?

Jul 13, 2012

On a Oracle 11g R2 I've a table function ( PIPELINED ) returning rows selected from a table.The first time the function is selected, in a session ( I've tried to disconnect and log in again ), it returns no rows.I've tried to log the call using DBMS_OUTPUT and from what I see the select on the table function returns no rows and no output is printed. So I presume Oracle is not calling the function.

The same function on a similar environment ( same db versions, patches and database structure ) works fine. The second environment is a production environment so it has more memory and some other settings enabled.

SQL & PL/SQL :: Oracle 9i - Block Logic To Fetch Records From Table And Compare

Dec 26, 2011

the following proble.The emp table is having 14 records.

SELECT * FROM emp ORDER BY empno;

EMPNOENAMESALDEPTNO
7369SMITH80020
7499ALLEN160030
7521WARD125030

[code]...

The emp table is having 10 records.

SELECT * FROM emp_10 ORDER BY empno;

EMPNOENAMESALDEPTNO
7369SMITH80020
7499ALLEN160030
7521WARD125030
7566JONES200020

[code]...

I have written the following PL/SQL block logic tofetch the records from the emp table and compare the records with emp_10 table to perform insert if the records are newelse to perform update the existed records in the emp_10 table.

DECLARE
CURSOR tranche_balance_cur
IS
SELECT empno,
ename,
sal,

[code]...

Execution scenario 1:

I have commented insert and update statements in that case I got the following out put.

Inserted Records4
Updated Records10

As per the logic it's giving the correct output because the cursor is fetching 14 records in that already 10 records are existed in emp_10 tableand 4 are new records.so that it's showing the count for inserted records as 10 and updated records as 4.

Execution scenario 2:
I have uncommented insert and update statements in that case I got the following out put.

Inserted Records13
Updated Records1

As per the logic it's not giving the correct output.

I tried with using TRIM function in the comparision logic to avoid spaces.

TRIM(emp_10.empno) = TRIM(tranche_balance_rec.empno)
AND TRIM(emp_10.ename) = TRIM(tranche_balance_rec.ename)
AND TRIM(emp_10.sal) = TRIM(tranche_balance_rec.sal)
AND TRIM(emp_10.deptno) = TRIM(tranche_balance_rec.deptno)

MS Excel As External Table

Sep 6, 2013

I need to do some analysis and research to find if any of these 8000 tables I have in a spreadheet that are going to be spit off into a separate database are used by any of our PeopleSoft processes.

I'm assigned to Student Records identified by NTSR.

So for table AAP_ETHNIC_PMPT, I could do something like

SELECT *
FROM PSSQLTEXTDEFN
where SQLID like 'NTSR%'
AND upper(sqltext) like '%PS_AAP_ETHNIC_PMPT%';

But how can I automate this and search 8000 rows in column A2 of a spreadsheet? What other tables other than PSSQLTEXTDEFN or PSPROJECTITEM can I use to search for values of NTSR?

SQL & PL/SQL :: External Table With Validation

Jun 25, 2010

I'm trying to create a external table column validation.

I have data like this

First column is Numeric, second is Non-Numeric

1,X
2,Y
3,Z

There are chances that I may have data as following
1,X
2A,Y
3,Z

My requirement is whenever I get non-numeric data in first column I want to pass 0 or NULL. So, I have created a external table with following script.

CREATE TABLE EXT_test
(
SL NUMBER (4),
BRANCH_NAME VARCHAR2 (100)
)
ORGANIZATION EXTERNAL
(
[code]........

Following is the code for function is numeric

function isnumeric( p_string in varchar2) return boolean as
l_number number;
begin
l_number := p_string;
return TRUE;
exception
when others then
return FALSE;
end;

It is not recognizing function IS NUMERIC. Is there any way, I can do this through External Table.

I'm getting error like

The following error has occurred:

SQL & PL/SQL :: External Table And Blank Strings

I am importing some data using an external table, but the file on which the external table is built has some rows where a certain column is populated with two empty space characters.

GCN_SEQNO NUMBER(6),
PDM_MNAGE NUMBER(4),
PDM_MXAGE NUMBER(4),

This is an except of what's in the external text file. The full text file has been attached.

blank spaces may be |

Here is the error message I am receiving. I believe this is caused by the blank fields in the data.

This is difficult to work with because the external table function does not appear to be even reading the file so it's not like I can convert the data as I'm loading into the internal database table. What are some approaches I can use to get Oracle to accept these blank columns and either populate them with blank spaces or set them to null?

SQL & PL/SQL :: External Table And Spanish Characters

Sep 27, 2011

I am having difficulty importing Spanish text files into my Oracle 11g XE database. Below is my external table declaration code. The external file is attached.

CREATE OR REPLACE DIRECTORY xtern_data_dir AS 'C:/.../';

CREATE TABLE ET_SLBLWD0_SPNSH_DESC (
LBL_WARN VARCHAR(4),
LBL_TXTSNS NUMBER(2),
LBL_DESCS VARCHAR2(55),

[Code]...

All 406 rows seem to import fine, but do not display the Spanish accent characters correctly. Note the strange characters:

SQL> SELECT count(*) FROM ET_SLBLWD0_SPNSH_DESC;

COUNT(*)
----------
406

SQL> select * from et_slblwd0_spnsh_desc;

LBL_ LBL_TXTSNS LBL_DESCS L L L L

0001 3 automotores u opere maquinaria peligrosa.
0002 1 Importante: Acabe todo este medicamento a menos que
0002 2 quien le escriba la receta le indique lo contrario.

[Code]...

I tried modifying my external table declaration by adding CHARACTERSET WE8ISO8859P1 and CHARACTERSET WE8MSWIN1252, but that just seems to cause the system to throw out ALL the rows containing Spanish characters:

COUNT(*) ---------- 197

SQL> select * from et_slblwd0_spnsh_desc;

LBL_ LBL_TXTSNS LBL_DESCS L L L L
---- ---------- ------------------------------------------------------- - - - -

0005 1 Debe tomar este medicamento con mucha agua.
0006 1 Puede descolorar la orina o las heces.

[Code]...

The log file specifies the following error on the bad rows:

error processing column LBL_DESCS in row xxx for datafile ...SLBLWD0_CRLF.TXT ORA-12899: value too large for column LBL_DESCS (actual: 55, maximum: 55)
