#Relational Tables

Relational model organizes data into one or more tables (or "relations") of columns and rows, with a unique key identifying each row. Rows are also called records or tuples.

I noticed when creating Record Map's within Ensemble that it is creating a Persistent cache table as it translates the file and puts it into the Record Map data structure.

I was wondering if there was a way to add a column to the cache table that is Hidden from the record map, but is a calculated date value on when that record was inserted? 

From time to time I have gotten questions about what was valued in the incoming data stream, and I thought it would be helpful to add a date so I can sort on by which date that record came in on.

I have a persistent class where I am logging each CCDA I receive. I want to store all of the providers associated to that CCDA (many to one). In a relational database, I would have a child table with a foreign key to the primary table. I'm guessing the equivalent to Cache would be 

1. Create a custom class (ProviderList) with the properties I want to store.

2. Add the class as a property of my CCDA persistent class.

Property Providers as Array of ProviderList (SQLProjection = "table/column";

Am I on the right track?

Hi Cache team, I am in the need of listing all the user defined schemas that are present my Cache db and also the user defined tables and views and Columns of those tables and views through Queries. So that I can write some JDBC code to run the queries and fetch the above metadata. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks in Advance,

Kranthi kiran.

Greetings,

I am working on the first of many triggers which will have identical code upon row insertion or update of a single column.  According to the document I should be able to define a multiple-event trigger using Cache SQL/DDL.

Here is a link to the current CREATE TRIGGER documentation.  Within the description section is the following paragraph:

A single-event trigger is triggered by a specified INSERT, DELETE, or UPDATE operation. A multiple-event trigger is defined to execute when any one of the specified events occurs on the specified table.

Question James Casazza · Nov 12, 2020

In Cache WIndows environment:

Trying to use the $SYSTEM.SQL.DDLImport to import XML File that has ClassMethods, no SQL Table, but it doesn't appear to be working. I can use this ClassMethod to create SQL Tables. The manual method I have been using is to go into Cache Management Portal, Classes, Import.

I create an XML file first, then run the following to import but get no errors. Any ideas?

 Do $SYSTEM.SQL.DDLImport("Oracle",%ID,dlxml,logfl,0,"",";",2)

Beginning of XML file looks like...

<?xml version="1.

Edit:

May have found the issue but not the solution.

"SELECT * FROM wmhISTORYdETAIL" runs as a passthrough without asking for the DNS.

but

'SELECT Count([wmhISTORYdETAIL].[HistHMNumber] AS CountOfHistHMNumber FROM [wmhISTORYdETAIL] WHERE ((([wmhISTORYdETAIL].[HistMovType])='Receipt') AND (([wmhISTORYdETAIL].[HistMovDate])>=Date()-1) AND (([wmhISTORYdETAIL].[HistMovDate])<Date()));'

asks for the DNS but both are linked to a table that has the password saved.

Any Ideas please?

Rob

Hi

I have created an MS Access database with a passthrough query to our Intersystems Cache WMS system.

Question Drew Holloway · Mar 12, 2020

Is there a way to query the database structure?  In SSMS there are queries for finding tables with a column with a certain name (using LIKE).  And there is the redgate tool SQL Search.  But I'm not sure how to go about looking for columns that have say a value of 'PATID' and returning all tables that match.  Does anyone know?

Question Mark O'Reilly · Jun 23, 2020

Hi:

We added a column to a table as follows 

Property SentTime As Ens.DataType.UTC;

And the code to populate this

if pStatus = "SENT" //set SentTime which is used in the Tableau Report
{
Set doc.SentTime = $$$timeUTC
}

For Historical records of type "Rejected" the Sent time is appearing though as 1840-12-31 00:00:00, we don't know why. Current docs work fine with this column just historical seems to display the default instead of blank/null.

Question Ephraim Malane · Jan 12, 2024

Hi Community,

I am attempting to create a new table by executing a SELECT statement that involves joining multiple tables. However, I encountered an error during execution: '( expected, AS found^Combined AS.' I would also like to create a cube based on this SQL table. However, during the cube creation process, I am prompted to specify a source class, and I'm unsure which class to use as it requires an existing class. Could you please help me identify the issue with the table creation, and provide guidance on selecting the appropriate source class for the cube creation?

Question Mathew Lambert · Jun 23, 2020

I know that 1-1 relationships are not officialy supported by intersystems cache/iris so I want to know the best way to store data with this kind of data model.

Currently I have two classes that where implemented some time ago:

Table A with a relationship type one on table B

Table B with a relationship type one on table A

To compile I have a double compile with qualifyer U.

What is the best way to implement a data model with 1-1 relationships?

Thank you
