Create a table named T1 to hold the total sales for all stores. 2. Create a table named T2 to hold the number of stores. 3. Create a table named T3 to hold the store name and the sum of sales for each store. A fourth SQL statement that uses tables T1, T2, and T3 to replicate the output from the original query should create table t1 as select sum(quantity) all_sales from stores; create table t2 as select count(*) nbr_stores from stores create table t3 as select store_name, sum(quantity) store_sales from store natural join sales; select store_name from t1, t2, t3 where store_sales > (all_sales / nbr_stores) ; There are three groups of pgm_main_category_id each with a value of 17 Now, if you want to select top 2 records from each group, the query is as

http://dbcrusade.blogspot.com/2009/06/informatica-setting-codepage.html Informatica : Lookups Versus Outer Joins A plain lookup over a dimension (fetching ROW_WID) can be replaced by an outer join I have created a prototype to demonstrate this. SILOS.TEST_BULK_SIL mapping is created as a copy of SILOS.SIL_PayrollFact (loads Original mapping had a mapplet mplt_SIL_PayrollFact. This mapplet has 12 lookups over various dimensions. It takes input (datasource_num_id, integration_id etc) from the I removed this mapplet completely and incorporated all the 12 dimensions in the parent sql itself, Outer Joining them to W_PAYROLL_FS. All the expressions which were built in the Following are the results: Mapping SIL_PayrollFact (uses lookup) TEST_BULK_SIL (uses Outer Join) Results show that Outer join based mapping ran approx 2.7 times faster than the one based on lookups.

Again, lookups which involve some complex calculations may not be replaced by outer join http://www.miky-schreiber.com/Blog/CategoryView,category,BI,Informatica.aspx TO_INTEGER(TO_CHAR(SYSDATE,'YYYY')) - TO_INTEGER(TO_CHAR(END_DATE,'YYYY') create a variable port and code it : IIF(ScriptResult='FAILED',ABORT('Previous SQL SCript Failed to execute')) Add the digits of an integer. ex: 12345 integer I want its result as 1+2+3+4+5 = 15 How to do this in Informatica for each row of this field? ans:- Please follow the below steps 1)Insert the value id= 12345 in your source table 2)call in in informatica(ie source-sourcequalifer) 3)take expression transformation and in exp transformation 4)v_id1=substr(1,1) 5)v_id2=substr(2,1) 6)v_id3=substr(3,1) 7)v_id4=substr(4,1) 8)v_id5=substr(5,1) 9)O_id=v_id1+v_id2+v_id3+v_id4+v_id5 10)pass it to target

I'm using CUME() function in my expression to do calculate a running-total. However, the CUME function doesn't reset the value when a new key (program name in my case) is I would like to know if there is a way to group the CUME value by program name

ans:- CODEPort 1: KEY InputPort 2: VAL InputPort 3: V_KEY Variable Exp: KEYPort 4: V_TOTAL Variable Exp: IIF(KEY != V_KEY, VAL, V_TOTAL + VAL)Port 5: RUNNING_TOTAL Output Exp: V_TOTAL
I am trying to implement Sequence Generator with an Expression transformation. I have columns like ID_MAX_v, ID_MAX_o and $$MAX_ID in Exp trns. Logic is as follows $$MAX_ID is a Mapping variable.

ans:-$$MAX_ID ---> SETCOUNTVARIABLE($$MAX_ID) ID_MAX_v ---> IIF( ISNULL($$MAX_ID) OR 0, 1,SETCOUNTVARIABLE($$MAX_ID)) ID_MAX_o ---> ID_MAX_v.
- I want to generate multiple rows from a single row based on values in a field. How can we achieve this in Informatica / sql? Eg: Input is a table with the following values Field1 Field2

AAA 1, 2, BBB 3,4,5 Output should be Field1 Field2 AAA 1 AAA 2 BBB 3 BBB 4 BBB 5

ANS:- After Source Qualifier Use Exp TRF ---------------Field1(I/O-String) Field2(I/O-String) Field2_var(V-String) = REPLACECHR( 0, Field2, ',', NULL ) Field2_len_var(V-Integer) = length(Field2_var) Field2_out(O-String) = Field2_var Field2_len(O-Integer) = Field2_len_var Connect Field1,Field2_out,Field2_len to JAVA transformations (when you will create Java TRF you have to create 1 input grp and 1 output grp ) and put the following code in the Java code tab (On Input Row tab) and compile it. Use JAVA Transformation

Use JAVA TRF ---------------------if (! isNull("IN_field2")) { int len=IN_field2_len; String str = IN_field2; OUT_field2=IN_field2; for(int i=0;i<len;i++) { OUT_field2=str.substring(i,i+1); generateRow(); }

If Address 1 is null it have to show address2 in Add1 Source Name , Address1, Address2, Ph john 10/4Newyork , 11/4 texas,123 Paul 3/4 delas, 234 Output as Name , Address1, Address2, Ph john, 10/4Newyork , 11/4 texas,123 Paul , 3/4 delas,3/4 delas,234

ANS:-Create a new variable for address1 in the expression transformation. Define them as output port and assign following value to it: Address11(for address1) IIF(ISNULL(Address1),Address2,Address1)
How to Load Last 'n' records to the Target if my source is Flat File. Ans:-While you import the file in source analyzer..

there you can set " import from line " 11 or you can use INPUT TYPE as command in session properties and chose tail -n 5 EMP.txt these all thing you have to define in session properties for source flat file . input type : command ----------------------by default it would be file once you chose this option the other option also gets changed and in place of FILENAME you would now see COMMAND option there you can give tail -n 5 EMP.txt or like this tail -n 5 /path/EMP.txt http://radhakrishnasarma.blogspot.com http://www.informaticans.com/blog/ IIF(ISNULL(order_date), NULL,IIF(IS_DATE(order_date,'MM/DD/YYYY'),'INVALID DATE'). it would be easier to validate the condition of each field separetly in the EXP trans, and in the FILTER trans, can ID != 'NULL' OR (ORDER_DT != 'NULL' OR ORDER_DT != 'INVALID_DATE' ) so if any condition meets the criteria http://arpit.leading-technology.net/Info1000004.htm

http://infapc.blogspot.com/ http://www.etl-developer.com/ How to find 3 duplicates records in 1 million records My understanding is that you want the duplicate records (and not filter them out). If thats the case you can do 1)In aggregator, group by based on key columns. Also create a output variable with code Count(*) which would 2)Have a filter after aggregator to pass only those records where count(*) >1 Q):All employees have to undergo certain tasks. Under one task there are multiple activities. We have Activity_Status as 'PASS' or 'FAIL' for each activity. Now if for instance in the example below, if employee with EmpNo=1500 has undergone Activities then for that particular Task i.e. FLD_100 I want to populate a column Task_Status = 'COMPLETE' in target since he has Activity_Status = 'PASS' in both activities for that Task.

Similarly if any one Activity_Status = 'FAIL' for a particular Task('FLD_101' in this case), the Task_Status = 'INCOMPLETE' in the target table. Now for EmpNo=1500, He has two tasks (FLD_100 with Task_Status = 'COMPLETE' and FLD_101 with Task_Status = 'INCOMPLETE'), so I want to populate a column 'Emp_Status' for all these records as 'DISQUALIFIED' since he has one For another EmpNo=1459, in the O/P desired section, he has Emp_Status='QUALIFIED' because both his Task_Status='COMPLETE' for FLD_105 and FLD_106 The issue also is that there are multiple employees and also the number of tasks and activities are not fixed ANS):-1. Use sorter (sort by EMP_ID and ACTVY_STATUS) So, if any activy_status is Fail, that record will come first. 2. Drag all the columns into an expression. Follow the same order of input, variable and ouput ports as a. Uncheck the output port for EMP_ID. a. v_FLAG--> Varible/Char 1 ----> IIF(prev_EMP_ID = EMP_ID, 'N', 'Y') c. v_EMP_STATUS ----> Varble port/char(15)--->IIF(v_FLAG = 'Y', IIF(ACTVY_STATUS = d. prev_EMP_ID ----> variable port ---> EMP_ID (Call EMP_ID) e. o_EMP_STATUS ---> output port----> v_EMP_STATUS (Call variable port) f. o_TASK_STATUS ---> output port ---> IIF(ACTVY_STATUS='PASS','COMPLETE','INCOMPLETE) ANS2):- This can be done with two instance of source( drag same source) in mappings, 1)from 1st instance of source drag all ports to Expression add and o/p port Task_status(O port)--->iif(Activity_Status='PASS','COMPLETE','INCOMPLETE' ) 2) i) From 2nd instance of source drag only EmpNo,Activity_Status to Sorter transformation and check key EmpNo(ascending) and Activity_Status(ascending) ii)Pass all ports to Aggregator transformation group by EmpNo, add an o/p port Status_out(O port)------>first(Activity_Status) 3)Take Joiner trans and drag ports for Exptrans(1st instance(detail)) and Aggtrans(2nd instance(master)) make JOIN CONDITON as EmpNo=EmpNo1 4)Pass all ports from Joiner Trans (expect empno1) to Exp trans ,add an o/p port Emp_Status(O port)------>iif(Activity_status='PASS' AND Status_out='PASS', 'QUALIFIED','DISQUALIFIED') 5)Drag required ports to target

While as o/p it will As far as I know the expression will consider it as a string insted of evaluating it. e.g Lets say I have 5 columns coming from a flat file source (Column1, Column2...,Column5) Column1 is a i/p port mapped from source. lets say OP_Column1 is the o/p port defined and it has a value In parameter File I have defined this parameter as $$Para1=IIF(Column1, SUBSTR(Column2, INSTR(Column3, '_', 1, 1), length(Column2)), LTRIM(RTRIM(Column4)) || TO_CHAR(SYSDATE,'ddmmyy') ) I want OP_Column1 to be assigned a value by executing the above formula solution:The Integration Service expands the mapping parameters and variables in an expression after it parses the expression. If you have an expression that changes frequently, you can define the expression string in a To define an expression string in a parameter file, you create a mapping parameter or variable to store the expression string, and set the parameter or variable to the expression string in the parameter file. The For example, to define the expression IIF(color=?red?,5) in a parameter file, perform the following steps: 1. In the mapping that uses the expression, create a mapping parameter $$Exp. Set IsExprVar to true and set the 2. In the Expression Editor, set the expression to the name of the mapping parameter as follows:
