Env: SQL Server 2012
I'd like to import some tables into MDS entities.
So I found MDSModelImport Program.
Importing is worked. And I confirmed to imported columns of tables as leaf Attributes.
I tried to insert data. But In Explorer Leaf Attributes are not shown except Code and Name.
So I couldn't insert data. In Excel also it does.
I have just installed Microsoft SQL Server 2014 on a Windows 2008 Enterprise server, and for some reason the following error appears every time I try to access the "Explore" page within MDS.
Arguments:Debugging resource strings are unavailable.Often the key and arguments provide sufficient information to diagnose the problem. URL...
I have setup SQL Server 2012 - MDS and can run the web client from IE11. I've created the model and entities from System Administration ok, however when I try and use Explorer to work with the master data I've setup, there's an error "The remote server returned an error: NotFound".I ran Profiler while clicking Explorer, and it's connecting with the XML statements and running without any errors - so it's seems it's not any issue with connecting to the MDS database.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI've selected a domain-based attribute for one of the leaf member attributes in the same entity, aka parent id, since it's a self-referencing entity. However, I cannot find a way to display anything but the code value in the drop-down (see below).
Is there a way to change the display value so that I can choose the attribute from the entity from which I want the user to choose? In other words, I would like to display the hierarchy name instead of the code, which is really just the primary id.
I have an entity (A), in which I use domain based attribute. The second entity (B) has several attributes. My problem is that, I would like to filter the first entity (A) based on an attribute that belongs to the second entity. The only way I can filter it (in MDS Excel add-in or Explorer) is by using Code or Name from the second entity.
I have in mind a couple of solutions, but they require some coding with xml saved query from Excel.
I want to setup a link from an SSRS report to Master Data Manager so when the click on the SSRS report item, it will pull up Master Data Manager filtered to the particular member that the user clicked on from the report. I cannot find any references to that being possible. Is it possible? What is the query key value to pass a member codeid or other filter criteria to Master Data Manager explorer?
MID is Model ID
VID is Version ID
EID is Entity ID
Are there other possible parameters? Can a pass a member ID or code?
My company is new to MDS. I am trying to set an attritube in an entity to read only so the users can't change the value in that field. When I did that, the whole model disappeared. I thought I had deleted it by accident so I created a test model and tried to do the same. The test model disappeared. This time, before saving the new settings I took a snapshot. After saving I took another snapshot. You can see that the whole model is gone (zz_RN_Permissions_Test). I tried every other coworker with admin rights and nobody shows it on the Models list. The behavior on the Excel add-in is correct. I can't change any values on that column. But I need to keep the models available.
See before and after snapshots below.
We already integrated different client data to MDS with MS Excel plugin, now we want to push back updated or new added record to source database. is it possible do using MDS? Do we have any background sync process to which automatically sync data to and from subscriber and MDS?
View 4 Replies View Related After designing a SSIS package in Visual Studio 2005 that had two connection manager defined to keep the password. After I deployed the package to a file system. I then Imported the .dtsx file after making a Integration Services connection in Sql Server Management Studio. When I tried to run the package it failed when it tried to make the connection. When I edited the connection manager connection string and added the password and the package ran fine but it does not retain the password!. I need to have this package scheduled to run daily so I need to know how to have the package keep the password in the connection string. I have seen other posts on this issue but not seen a good solution. Could someone point me to the proper MSDN article that would explain how to implement this ? Is it a SQL Server configuration issue or a property in Visual Studio SSIS design time ?
thanks.
NOTE: I apologize to anyone (especially moderators) who may notice that I am basically repeating a question that was already posted by me in another recent thread. The reason why I am reposting is because I want to filter my question down to its crux because the other question may not have been asked in the most clear way.
The Question:
The sceanrio is this.
(1) I have a sales person dimension with a hierarchy.
(2) In this hierarchy, Bill and Ted roll up to John.
(3) Bill sells 10 units, Ted sells 8 units, and John sells 5 units.
When you process this hierarchy, what would you expect the total to be for John?
(A) 23, which is the sum for Bill, Ted, and John
or
(B) 18, which is the sum of Bill and Ted only and overwritting John's number
I say (A) and I think most will choose the same, and all the examples I've been reflects (A).
However, in my simple cube I get (B).
Is there a setting I need to adjust to get (A)?
I am getting ErrorCode 8 while loading the data from stage to model. I have checked my error view it states that "Member Code is Inactive".
Initially I have loaded same set of data in Model from MDS Stage table but then deleted with ImportType = 5 which removed all the data from the MDM model.
Now i want to load it back but its giving the Error Code 8 .. Before loading the same data i have changed the stage table Importtype to 2 and Importstatusid to 0.
I've been quite excited about SQL Server MDS that should allow non-IT staff to easily maintain data. However maintaining data that have many-to-many relationships seems to be quite a pain. I believe the best way is:
Open up your MDS web interfaceGo to entities > product (for example)Add a new member and fill the details Click "product parts" in the bottom right "Related Entities" partAdd a new memberTry and find the product you just created from the dropdownlistSelect the first part and click OKAgain try and find the product you have created from the dropdownlistSelect the second part and click OKRepeat...Close the tab on your browser and finish your product entity.How I wish it worked:
Open up your MDS web interfaceGo to entities > product (for example)Add a new member and fill the detailsCheck a checkbox for each part visible under "product parts" in the bottom right "Related Entities" partFinish your product entity.
Everytime I run the load packages that I have built into the MDS staging the tables, in MDS_Staging, get cleared down and then repopulated. When the MDS database gets new data it appends it and does not clear down the data that is already in the database and is there fore hold duplicate rows.
Is there a way of truncating the tables in the MDS database before populating again with the new data from the MDS_Staging database so as to not hold duplicate rows?
I am newbie to MDS of SQL,want to know how we can transfer tables from two different SQL Databases to MDS.Suggest me the steps to proceed with any examples.

We created table managers_plan in MDS :
year
month
id_manager (domain attr)
POS (domain attr)
plan_sum_USD
plan_unit
----------------------------
Entities:
Managers ~ 800 records
POS ~ 100 000 records
managers_plan Total records for
1 year = 100K x 12 = 1 200 000
managers_plan - table partitions

I've got 2 entities "Agent" and "Function".
"Agent" has a code, a name, and an attribute called "function_code" which refers to "Function"'s code
"Function" as a code and a name. Name is the description of the function.
I'd like to see in a single row :
"Code", "Name", "Funcion_code" and "Name" (the last one from the entity "Function").
In SQL it will something like
Select a.code, a.name, a.function_code, f.name
from agent a, function f
where a.function_code = f.code
I've tried with explicit hierarchy, derived hierarchy, consolidated members...
I was able to have an entity with all those attributes but I can choose the attribute I want. My goal is that, according to "Function_code" in Agent, I get the "Name" of the function...
I was reading that when applying 2008 R2 SP1 you need to run the MDS update component manually: [URL] I was curious if that package changed in later service packs because I couldn't find any mention of it.
SQL 2012, if there was a similar process in their service packs for MDS, or if it hasn't been upgraded?
I have an issue with MDS (Master Data Services for ONE platform). When I try to connect to MDS from Excel addin, I get the error - please see the attachement.
View 2 Replies View RelatedIn my trivial example below I have a Nationality entity. The entity just has the code and Name attributes, with the code being an automatically generated Integer. I am inserting one record and then trying to prevent the same record being inserted, by setting the ImportType to 1:
truncate table [stg].[Nationality_1_Leaf]
insert into [stg].[Nationality_1_Leaf](importType, ImportStatus_id, BatchTag, Name)
values(1, 0, 'some batch' , 'American' )
select * From [stg].[Nationality_1_Leaf]
exec stg.udp_Nationality_1_Leaf 'VERSION_1', 1, 'some batch'
After this I truncate the staging table and repeat the process. Unfortunately a new record is entered into the Entity even though the name is identical to a record that already exists.
in an explicit hierarchy, i only want to show the name of consolidated members. I do not want to show the code.

View 4 Replies View RelatedWhen we need to add or edit a member on a entity, for columns with foreign key, we get a search box to look up the value. Here the default search is based on name. We want the code to be the default search column. I see that when i changed in the backend .aspx file and restarted IIS, the change happened and now the default search is code. I just want to know if there will be any impacts going forward ? may be during upgrades or migrations ?

I then deleted EntityB from my dev environment and used "MDSModelDeploy deployupdate" do update the model in prodution. After the deployUpdate, EntityB still exists in production. Is there something special I need to do (option of MDSModelDeploy?) in order for the deploy to delete an entity during a migration?

How do I do this? I've googled and haven't had much luck. I only want to uninstall the web app since everything up until then was installed correctly.
