Did anyone tried to rename or modify the source code on system fields from being 'customdata' based on the filename or business unit you are unloading a text or excel file?I would really love this as this source code is one of my primary keys and it's uniform irrespective of the business unit I unload the data becoz of excel docs being used.

Legacy Work Items

Hi all,  Our project has work items that have been left by several folks who have since left the company.  Their accounts no longer exist, so we can't log in as their old users and remove them.  Is it possible to remove these work items some other way?

ODX Server Notifications on Critical Errors

I am unable to set up my notifications. I get the following error message: I already tried different email addresses (gmail, outlook, hotmail) with different ports. I also enabled the option within my mail accounts to allow external programs to make a connection. But it still isn't working. Is this a know issue or am I doing something wrong?

working with multiple project

Hi , our DH setup consists of multi-layered datawarehouse whereas BI client (tableau ) only interfaces the upper tier: MDW DWH.Having semantic layer for each dashboards (we have quite a few), we would like to move out of the single core TX project with multiple semantic layers to a project for each dashboard (semantic layer). By doing so, we can make sure that each developer works on his own project without "stepping on each other toes" (I'm aware of collabaration features of TX) and keeping our core project unharmed. So, the challenge is how to reuse objects created in the core project (preferably VIEW to reduce space/redundencies) in entire new project (same server/database)My approach was creating a new project, add MDW datawarehouse and then utilize External SQL Connection to connect to the same DWH (transfer type connection). I've also created a seperate database schema with valid behaivor. The problem we ran in was that designated table was the same as similar table in the daatab

SQL 2016: worth the upgrade?

Hello fellow TimeXtender users, We were wondering: is it worth upgrading from SQL 2014 to 2016 in the scenario where we use TX traditionally: stage - dw - cubes. Has anyone done it and have you seen performance improvements? Thanks! Wim CALM - Co
