Taking EAV Create Dimension Table

Sep 13, 2006

I have a result set as follow

Jobid, ClassId, ClassValue
1 GroupName Joes Auto
1 EffDate 1/1/6
1 Userid XYZ1234
....
2 GroupName Sams Eatery
2 EffDate 2/1/6
2 UserID ABC0987

ETC...

I need

Jobid GroupName EffDate Userid
1 Joes Auto 1/1/6 xyz1234
2 Sams Eatery 2/1/6 abc0987

I can manipulate this in a pivot table for reporting however I need this to be a table for reporting by filterable searchable information. What can I do short of defining each field with case logic, or union queries.

Jul 12, 2006

Hi

I want to create a table that has a datetime column, data type=datetime and I want the date to start form 01/01/2004 00:00:00 to 01/01/2008 00:00:00 the increment will be by minute like

Create Dimension Table From Fact Table!!

Mar 16, 2007

I have picked an exmple from this forum, to help me explain my current problem...

"I'm looking for a solution to import data from a flat file into an normalized data modell. To explain it a little simpler think about to following:

The Data Souce is a CSV-File with FirstName, LastName and Category. Sample data could be

Dirk; Bauer; sailing
Peter; Bauer; fishing
Marc; Bauer; reading

In my data modell I have defined the 2 tables "Person" and "Category":

Table "Person"
----------------
[PersonID] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL
[CategoryID] [int] NOT NULL
[FirstName] [nvarchar](50)
[LastName] [nvarchar](50)

Table "Category"
----------------
[CategoryID] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL
[CategoryName] [nvarchar](50)

Now I like to read my first row from the source and lookup a value for the CategoryID "sailing". As my data tables are empty right now, the lookup is not able to read a value for "sailing". Now I like to insert a new row in the table "Category" for the value "sailing" and receive the new "CategoryID" to insert my values in the table "Person" INCLUDING the new "CategoryID".

I think this is a normal way of reading data from a source and performing some lookups. In my "real world" scenario I have to lookup about 20 foreign keys before I'm able to insert the row read from the flat file source.

I really can't belief that this is a "special" case and I also can't belief that there is no easy and simple way to solve this with SSIS. Ok, the solution from Thomas is working but it is a very complex solution for this small problem. So, any help would be appreciated...

Thanks,
Dirk"

Power Pivot :: Create Measure Within Date Dimension Table To Sum Single Entry Per Month Eliminating Duplicates

Jul 27, 2015

We are trying to do some utilization calculations that need to factor in a given number of holiday hours per month.

I have a date dimension table (dimdate).  Has a row for every day of every year (2006-2015)

I have a work entry fact table (timedetail).  Has a row for every work entry.  Each row has a worked date, and this column has a relationship to dimdate.

Our holidays fluctuate, and we offer floating holidays that our staff get to pick.  So we cannot hard code which individual dates in dimdate as holidays.  So what we have done is added a column to our dimdate table called HolidayHoursPerMonth. 

This column will list the number of holiday hours available in the given month that the individual date happens to fall within, thus there are a lot of duplicates.  Below is a brief example of dimdate.  In the example below, there are 0 holiday hours for the month of June, and their are 8 holiday hours for the month of July.

DateKey MonthNumber HolidayHoursPerMonth
6/29/2015 6 0
6/30/2015 6 0
7/1/2015 7 8
7/2/2015 7 8

I have a pivot table create based of the fact table.  I then have various date slicers from the dimension table (i.e. year, month).  If I simply drag this column into the pivot table and summarize by MAX it works when you are sliced on a single month, but breaks if anything but a single month is sliced on.  

I am trying to create a measure that calculates the amount of holiday hours based on the what's sliced, but only using a single value for each month.  For example July should just be 8, not  8 x #of days in the month. 

Listed below is how many hours per month.  So if you were to slice on an entire year, the measure should equal 64.  If you sliced on Jan, Feb and March, the measure should equal 12.  If you were to slice nothing, thus including all 15 years in our dimdate table, the measure should equal 640 (10 years x 64 hours per year).

MonthNumberOfYear HolidayHoursPerMonth
1 8
2 4
3 0
4 0
5 8
6 0
7 8
8 0
9 8
10 4
11 16
12 8

Hi,
 
Why is taking so long to open/create/render the reports for the first time? Is there any configuration to change this? I don€™t think this behavior is related to Report Execution or cache! I think there is something else going on! Thanks.

Need Help To Create My Time Dimension

Mar 30, 2004

Hi,

I have a fact table which contains the transaction date, ProductID, QTySold, TotalSaleAmount, etc...

Since I am new to OLAP therefore I need help to now create the table for TIME on which I will be basing my time dimension... I have read a few articles and have gathered that at the end of the exercise my fact table should have a 'timeid' column which will be linked to the same column in the table being used for the time dimension...

I have gone through the tutorial of MS-Analysis Service and FoodMart example have some idea about what he structure of this table will be.

My questions are:

1. I need guidance on how to create the table for time. One option is to just copy the table used in the Foodmart example but thought that might work but my concept will not be clear

2. The structure of the table to be used for time dimension is quite clear (i think this part is easy). What I want to understand is that how do i POPULATE this table which data? Can some one provide me with scripts, SPs, or whatever to do this.... This is the area where I am lost...

3. How will I enter the "TheDate" column in my fact table and link it with my table for time dimension...

Looking forward to someone's help.

BTW, I would like to share a very good article which i recently found in one of the newsgroups. Some of you might like appreciate it too:

Create Or Drop Dimension Members

Mar 19, 2008

Hi All,

I am Srinivas working on SSAS 2005. I am not able to create or drop dimension members. I need to drop and create all members in one dimension before cube processing, as the columns are coming dynamically.

E.g. ALTER CUBE [Reporting] DROP DIMENSION MEMBER [Tbl Analysis Test].[Name]
Here cube is [Reporting] , dimension is [Tbl Analysis Test] and member is [Name].

Its giving the following error " Parsing the query ... Query (1, 46) The member '[Name]' was not found in the cube when the string, [Tbl Analysis Test].[Name], was parsed. Parsing complete"

Please look into this issue, advice me what do I do ASAP.

Thanks,
Srinivas

Do We Always Have To Create Name Calculation For Role-playing Dimension?

Jul 10, 2007

Hi, dear friends,

Just found that I am not able to ignore the name column property for role-palying dimension even though I only select one of the key columns for this dimension in the mining structure where the role-playing dimension is used? E.g I have a fact table (which is the case table for the mining structure) which is related to the role-playing date dimension. The schema is as following:

Dim_event_day_time_key

Dim_carrier_day_time_key

Dim_domain_day_time_key

.....................................

and other attibutes in the fact table.

When I dragged the 'hours' attribute from the dim_day_time table to the mining structure, if I left the key columns of 'Hours' as the above 3 columns, then I have to select a name column, by then I dont have a name column in the dimension table yet. Therefore I want to jsut select one key column as the key of that role-playing dimension in the mining structure, but then I am not able to ignore the 'name column' property as it still always asks me to select the 'name column' for that.



Therefore my question is: we are not allowed to select only one key columns in the mining structure for the role-playing dimension? And we will have to always go to the data source view to create a named calculation as the new column for the role-playing dimension?



Hope my question is clear for your advices and I am looking forward to hearing from you shortly.



Thanks a lot in advance.



With best regards,



Yours sincerely,

Power Pivot :: Date Dimension - Create A List Of Months

Jul 21, 2015

I need to create a date dimension where the lowest level is month. I've seen examples which use the list function such as

Source = List.Dates(#date(2000, 1, 1), Duration.Days(DateTime.Date(DateTime.FixedLocalNow())-#date(2000,1,1)), #duration(1,0,0,0)),

The above increments by 1 day which is defined in the 1st argument of the #duration. My question is how can I dynamically change the value of this 1st argument such that its the number of days in the current month hence it will increment to only return the 1st date in the Month e.g

1/1/2000
1/2/2000
1/3/2000
etc..

I prefer to use an elegant approach if possible, the alternative would be return all dates, create a custom column from these dates which returns the month date - delete the dates column - get a distinct list of the month dates.

Analysis :: Hierarchy Based On Dimension Table Joined Multiple Times Against A Fact Table?

Aug 11, 2015

I am working on a model where I have a sales fact table. Each fact record has four different customer fields (ship- to, sold-to, payer, and bill-to customer). I have one customer dimension table that joins to the sales fact table four times (once for each of the customer fields above).  When viewing the data in Excel, I would like to have four hierarchies (ship -to, sold-to, payer, and bill-to customer) within Customer. 

Is there a way to build hierarchies within my Customer dimension based on the same Customer table?  What I want is to view the data in Excel and see the Customer dimension.  Within Customer, I want four hierarchies.

T-SQL (SS2K8) :: Table With 3 Million Plus Records Taking Half A Minute?

Aug 6, 2015

I have a table that I need to do some computations on all the data but first I need to remove the duplicate records and insert the results into a destination table. Here's the example below. My table has 3.1 million rows. I have tried using the DISTINCT and the GROUP BY but both ways to select the data takes about half a minute to run. I'm wondering if there is a way to increase performance. Users are ok with this time since the process runs overnight but improving it won't hurt. I do have a clustered index on these fields but that doesn't seem to improve any.

Select Into Statement Without Taking Auto Increment Of ID Column To The New Table

Mar 7, 2011

Due to localization I have the need to make child tables, where there is a composite Primary Key, between the Id column and the LanguageSign column. On the parent table the Id column is Identity column with auto increment.

The problem is that during the select into query to copy columns from parent to child, this auto increment behaviour of the parent-Id is copied to the child-Id. However I do not want that, because the same Id will be used by different LanguageSign entries

Is there a way to use 'select into' without copying the auto increment, or is my only option to make a whole new column without auto increment on the child and copy the records?
 
btw I have used this statement

SET
IDENTITY_INSERT MyTable

ON , so that inserting into the Id column is possible. I can see however that this does not take away the auto increment...

Help: Database Table Taking 9GB Of Disk Space But Only Contains 50Mb Data.

Dec 11, 2007

Disk space is increasing at an alarming rate (about 500MB a day). Shrink of database seems to have no effect. It is a queueing table so data is inserted then a few minutes later it gets processed & deleted.

Here is info about the problem:

name rows reserved data index_size unused
------------------- ----------- ------------------ ------------------ ------------------ ------------------
ImporterModuleQueue 30 9469432 KB 9468280 KB 32 KB 1120 KB

This is about 9 GB


select sum(len(QueueContent)) from ImporterModuleQueue

49744918

select sum(len(QueueErrors)) from ImporterModuleQueue

43529

This is about 50 Mb

One-to-many Relations Between Fact Table And Dimension Table

May 27, 2004

Hi,

we have a problem with "one-to-many relations between fact table and dimension table". Take the example of table "LOGGEDFLAW" which is related one-to-many to the table "LOGGEDREASON. "LOGGEDFLAW" includes the column "FLAWKEY" and "LOGGEDREASON" includes the column "REASONKEY" and essentiallay the column "FLAWKEY" as foreign key. Now assume that we have the following records in there:

LOGGEDFLAW
1) FLAW1
2) FLAW2

LOGGEDREASON
1) REASON1,FLAW1
2) REASON2,FLAW1
3) REASON3,FLAW2

Now assume, that "LOGGEDFLAW" is the facttable and "FLAWCOUNT" is the measure with the source column "FLAWKEY" in which we want to count the number of FLAWs. As you see in the example the number of FLAWs is 1 for "FLAW1" and "FLAW2". Microsoft Analysis Server generates the value of 2 for the number of FLAWs "FLAW1" because of the one-to-many relationship to the table "LOGGEDREASON". In the attached ZIP File you find :

- a MDB File with the described example
- a screenshot from the cube constructed in AS
- a screenshot from the result table generated with AS.

The question: How is it possible to calculate the measure "FLAWCOUNT" correctly, ignoring the records generated by the one-to-many relationship?

Best regards,
Thorsten

Dimension Table Population-out Of Fact Table

Apr 2, 2007

I have a large flat file that comes to me. I first import the flat data in to a SQL table for ease of use. Then i put it into a more permanent table with the proper references to dimension tables. I want to build a dimension table out of information from my flat file. I have a dimension table with columns, [Org Client], and [Client#] where [org client] is the name of the client. Both of these columns appear in my flat file but i want to use only the client# in my permanent table. How extract distinct values of client # and [org client] into a dimension table?



My idea was to select distinct values of client# and use some type of foreach loop to go through each client# and use a query to select the TOP(1) values of [org client] where client# = x. Would this work and if so how do I go about setting this up?



I'm really hoping there is a simpler way than this. Thank you all for your time.

Dimension Table With Just 1 Column?

Dec 14, 2007



Hi
I am working as datawarehous architect with a large concern and i designed a datamart witha fact table surrounded by 5 dimension tables. My PM who do not know datwarehousing has abruptly changed my design and instead of 5 dimension tables has increased to 17 tables which just 1 column each in them.
This is hell of a design because if it is a single column dimension then there can not be any hierarchy in the dimension table , better will be to push this column as a fact.
What should I do now. Moreover he has asked me to not to use SSIS and code everything in stored procedure.
Please guide.

Creating A Dimension Table From A 3-key Table

Jan 13, 2005

Hi All,

I have a situation with a table that was created for a transactional

system with a 3 columns key. The table is similar to the following:

countrystatecitydescription
11221City A from country 1 and state 12
11321City A from country 1 and state 13
21422City B from country 2 and state 14
21522City B from country 2 and state 15


Now I'm trying to create a dts package that would allow me to build a

city dimension table with unique codes (keys) for each city. What kind of

transformation should I use to translate the old codes (based on the

country-state-city key) into the new ones and preserving the data

integrity?

Thanks,

Ignacio
