I have loaded a table with some initial data  (== initial stoock). The key is quiet simple  Company, Warehouse and ItemNow I want to update the amounts every day so that it reflects the actual stock level of data dayThe initial load was done from one source , the updates come from another sources History settings  have natural jkey set , and all non lookup fields are updsated  (type 1)Nevertheless the record is not updated Any idea ‘why’ the update is not working

Hi,It’s possible to create new schemas to set rules for access. Are there other reasons, beyond that, for creating new schemas?What are the pros and cons of extra schemas in a Data Areas in version 21 (6xxx)?All knowledge and experience in the field is gratefully receivedBRAnders

Hello,In order to be able to answer all related questions regarding GDPR, we are designing a TX solution that allows us to track all tables/columns that contains sensitive information. Most importantly, we make use of tags so we can track the columns throughout the DWH.An additional question we got is if it is possible to keep track of changes in the TimeXtender projects. In other words, who added which column (with sensitive data) to the project and when? What is the best way to keep track of these things and is there a solution in TimeXtender available that we can use to provide this information? Probably we should use the data in the TX Repository, we were curious if you have had this question before.

I’ve some tables in my data source without primary key, but I’ve a MODIFIEDDATETIME field for all the records, that it can be used to incremental load, but TX doesn’t allow it.Some workaround? 

What it’s the recomended setup in the new version to support multiple developers and multiple projects?How many ODX instances, MDW instances must we would use?

Hello,Current Setup: TimeXtender 20.10.31.64 and ODX 20.10.31.I need help setting up incremental load on a rather different type of data flow from the standard one, that has table inserts and views inbetween tables.The flow is as follows:Table A (has incremental load today) => View1 => TableB => Table C(MDW) once directly but also through View2.Both views are necessary so we cannot remove them.  My question is how to setup incremental load in timextender on this solution, if it is even possible. I am not sure how to do it through a view. Currently there is only an incremental load set up on Table A and then we fully load table B and C. Thank you

After attempting to add a new column to my history table, I cannot get the table deployed and executed anymore. The new column is currently not in the table, but I also can't get it to get back to "old" historical table back without the new column. Currently have tried the following things, but so far without result:Set the project version back to an earlier version where the change wasn’t made yet; Upgrarde the PROD SQL DB Size and deploy again.It does not get beyond the Valid Table structure when deploying the historical table. When previewing I also get the following error messages:The table you are trying to preview has not been deployed yet. Deploy first.Invalid column name 'SCD Type I Hash Key'.   The table you are trying to preview has not been deployed yet. Deploy first. Invalid column name 'SCD Type I Hash Key'. Details: SQL Server: 'c5d03ed4f0ca.tr30953.westeurope1-a.worker.database.windows.net,11052'SQL Procedure: ''SQL Line Number: 1SQL Error Number: 207 Invalid column name

I have the following code y DSA:Select * from TableA union Select * from TableBunion Select * from Table CI want to replace this code with a table

Hi,We are receiving some weird error messages when executing our project, which uses Azure Data Factory to copy tables from our Data Lake storage to the Azure SQL db (ODX → DWH). The error can be found in the attachments. When inspecting the pipeline run on ADF, it seems to be missing the configured activities (see second attachment). When executing the table manually from TX, the pipeline runs succesfully. Also the pipeline seems correctly configured on ADF and the pipeline run that is created when executing the table manually shows the correct activities.Any ideas as to what might be causing this? Best regards,Kaj  

Can you explain how and for what it can be used?

Can you provide some documentation about this?How can I use it?For what it must be used? 

When you arte coping between instances, the destination insatance name doesn’t show complete. 

As you can see in the screenshot, I think that this situation must be controled: 

v20.10.36.64Hi,I have a project that is loading data from the ledger table into the staging database with approx, 5m records.When manually executing the load, the ADO.NET transfer is taking 5-6 minutes, but the cleansing rules can take hours, to the point I have to terminate the load.Is there any troubleshooting I can perform on the cleansing steps? I know I have taken the easy option on joins where the data types differ, and wonder if that is now compounding the issue?Any tips or pointers greatly appreciated.Thanks,Richard

Hi,I would like to do a “range lookup”. Because I can't solve it using a conditional lookup, I used a custom field transformation. My code looks like this:CASE    WHEN substring([SBIcode_cleansed], 1, 1) like '[^0-9]' THEN                    (SELECT [kvk_groep_omschrijving]                     FROM  [dsa].[SBIcode_groepering]                             where [SBIcode] = [SBIcode_cleansed]                   ) --'test1'   ELSE                   (SELECT [kvk_groep_omschrijving]                     FROM  [dsa].[SBIcode_groepering]                            where substring([SBIcode_cleansed], 1, 2) >= [min_sbi_code]                              and substring([SBIcode_cleansed], 1, 2) <= [max_sbi_code]                   )--'test2'   END It seems that a subquery is not possible because I get an error message that more than one value is retrieved using the subquery but that is not possible.Testing it in SSMS works fine. (Not using between because above seems to work faster when testing

If you add a new field with the deploy only option, to an existing table with data, there are two diferent behaviors, depending if the table has incremental rule defined or not.This is controled by this setting: By default it’s cleared for “normal” tables and setted to incremental tables.I think the behavior should always be the same or at least get a warning message

I’ve detected that if you have the same table in DSA and MDW. let say DSA.Invoices and MDW.Invoices for example, and you define partition for that, both tables share the same partition schemas and partition functions in the SQL Server database.It’s a problem when you try to add or remove field from whatever table.

I discovered that when using the replace transformation with the CharType that you are required to know or look up the int value of the character you want to replace and use that as the parameter.This does not seem to be documented anywhere or be useful in any way I can think of. I assume REPLACE('abc’, char(65), 'b’) is functionally equivalent to REPLACE('abc’, 'a’, 'b’). In a Case Insensitive collation there is no difference between the two anyhow.There is also no COLLATION or binary type support, which are things that you can do with REPLACE() that might actually be useful in certain rare cases. 

I’ve a query table created to my D365 F&O data source like you can see in this screenshot: The query returns data as you can see in the query tool (it would be nice to be able to run it in the “Manage Query Tables” window too): But, If try to Synchronize ODX Objects: I get an error and there is not the table if I try to remap it:  And when I deploy and execute the table, it’s empty: Is this a bug or I’m doing something wrong?

Greetings,I have an odd error and trying to eliminate where this issue is coming from.I have a server running SQL server 2016 and TX is running on top of that. The version of TX I am running is 20.10.15.64 in Server 1.The errors I am getting are attached. TX is running ok in Server 1 which is DB server.There is Analysis Server 2 which seems to be an issue and is creating the errors above.The attached error is coming from PowerBI Report Server interface. We are using Microsoft PowerBI tool for our reports. I have increased memory allocation in Server 1 where TX is running and issue seems to still be there.Our products are all 64bit version.Any Idea or view of what could be causing this.  

Hi, Is it possible to add object security rules on a _R table from within TimeXtender?  Thx! 

I would like to share with you this diagram that shows the architecture of our data platform with TX.Perhaps it will be another recomended architectures and I would like to know it and start a discussion about this topic.  

When I remove a MDW-table from the project it remains available in the MDW-database.How do I completely remove the table so I can start over (create a new table using the old name)

We are implementing a data warehouse with data from Dynamics 365 F&O and I’m thinking that we will have money data from UK in pounds and from Spain in euros and we will need currency conversion (based on time) to resolve this situation.Some body has considered this situation?How must it be implemented? 

If i try to add a dataselection rule my tables stay empty.Tried allready the selection rule on the table and with an without ‘ ‘ If i do the same in the query tool it looks good. Is it a bug?Using version 6143.1
