We can use a simple function (TO_CHAR(TO_DATE(1234567,'J'),
'JSP')) this will return you ONE MILLION TWO HUNDRED
THIRTY-FOUR THOUSAND FIVE HUNDRED SIXTY-SEVEN . But this has
limitation to be used only for numbers between 1 and 5373484
.For numbers larger than that use following function and
call it in informatica through external function
transformation .

create or replace
2 function spell_number( p_number in number )
3 return varchar2
4 as
5 type myArray is table of varchar2(255);
6 l_str myArray := myArray( '',
7 ' thousand ', ' million ',
8 ' billion ', ' trillion ',
9 ' quadrillion ', '
quintillion ',
10 ' sextillion ', ' septillion ',
11 ' octillion ', ' nonillion ',
12 ' decillion ', ' undecillion ',
13 ' duodecillion ' );
14
15 l_num varchar2(50) default trunc( p_number );
16 l_return varchar2(4000);
17 begin
18 for i in 1 .. l_str.count
19 loop
20 exit when l_num is null;
21
22 if ( substr(l_num, length(l_num)-2, 3) <> 0 )
23 then
24 l_return := to_char(
25 to_date(
26 substr(l_num,
length(l_num)-2, 3),
27 'J' ),
28 'Jsp' ) || l_str(i) || l_return;
29 end if;
30 l_num := substr( l_num, 1, length(l_num)-3 );
31 end loop;
32
33 return l_return;
34 end;

Hi, In source I have records like this No name address 10 manoj mum 10 manoj dilhi 20 kumar usa 20 kumar Tokyo I want records in target like shown below No name addr1 addr2 10 manoj mum dilhi 20 kumar usa Tokyo If it is reverse we can do this by using Normalizer transformation by setting occurance as 2. Somebody will say use denoralization technique. But as of my knowledge I couldn’t find any denormalization technique. Is there any concept like that? I tryid this seriously but I could find any idea to implement this. Can any one please help me ? Advance Thanks

Hi, I saw one mapping implemented by my seniors . In Expression transformation they implemented following logic. That is iif(is_date(in_UC_DATINV,'YYYYMMDD'),to_date(in_UC_DATINV,'Y YYYMMDD'),'Inventory Date is either invalid or null') Inventory_Date is validated only for is_date() But not validated for notisnull() . But error says “ either invalid or null “ why? Whether is_date() also check for not isnull() ? or in this logic something is different ? Please answer me . Advance thanks

CANNOT USE PARAMETER FILE! Hi all, I am trying to use parameter file for my workflow. This could help me to filter records where CITY = 'Portland' Following is what I have done: **in Designer - create new parameter : $$PARA_FIL, Parameter, String, IsExprVar=TRUE, Initial value = [empty] - Source Qualifier/ Properties/Source Filter: CUSTOMERS.CITY='$$PARA_FIL' **Create Parameter file: C:\Informatica\PowerCenter8.6.0 \server\infa_shared\BWParam\DynamicParamTest.txt $$PARA_FIL='Portland' **Configure workflow to use the parameter file: Edit Workflow/Properties/Parameter Filename: C:\Informatica\PowerCenter8.6.0 \server\infa_shared\BWParam\DynamicParamTest.txt I also configured directory of parameter file for session task. However, I just got this in the session log: [SQ_CUSTOMERS] SQL Query [SELECT CUSTOMERS.CUSTOMER_ID FROM CUSTOMERS WHERE CUSTOMERS.CITY='$$PARA_FIL'] No record has been loaded to target. It seems that the parameter file has not been read. I cannot understand the reason why. Could any of you kindly suggest me anything? Thanks
