Binary load data reduction and concatenate

Hi All,

Please help needed with binary load data reduction:

Used below script to reduce data based on different users for different months and concatenated:

Binary ;

for each vTable_Field in 'EmpDetails,EMPID','EMPLOYEE,EMPID', 'COUNTRY,[COUNTRY ID]'
let vTable = subfield(vTable_Field,',',1);
let vField = subfield(vTable_Field,',',2);

INNER JOIN ($(vTable))
LOAD DISTINCT $(vField)
Resident EmpDetails
Where NAME = '$(vName1)' and MonthYear = 'MAR 2016';
next vTable_Field
Concatenate
INNER JOIN ($(vTable))
LOAD DISTINCT $(vField)
Resident EmpDetails
Where NAME = '$(vName2)' and MonthYear = 'APR 2016';
next vTable_Field

it gives illegal prefix error for concatenate keyword.

if I remove concatenate, it loads only data for user 2,but I want to load data for both user 1 for march month  and user 2 for april month

Thank for help

Neetha

I think you have Inner Join and Concatenate next to each other. Do you want to concatenate or do a Inner join? May be you want to remove the inner join?

hi sunny,

thanks for response.

I want to inner join and merge data, other than concatenate how to merge both tables from data reduction?

Instead of using For, why don't you simply load the field name from required table and concatenate them

Data:

LOAD * inline [

Junk ];

Concatenate(Data)
LOAD DISTINCT

                      EmpDetails,EMPID,

                     EMPLOYEE,EMPID,

                     COUNTRY,

                     [COUNTRY ID]
Resident EmpDetails
Where NAME = '$(vName1)' and MonthYear = 'MAR 2016';

Concatenate (Data)

LOAD DISTINCT

                      EmpDetails,EMPID,

                     EMPLOYEE,EMPID,

                     COUNTRY,

                     [COUNTRY ID]
Resident EmpDetails

Where NAME = '$(vName2)' and MonthYear = 'APR 2016';


Drop field Junk;

Thanks  sunny for pointing me to right answer

Binary ;

for each vTable_Field in 'EmpDetails,EMPID','EMPLOYEE,EMPID', 'COUNTRY,[COUNTRY ID]'
let vTable = subfield(vTable_Field,',',1);
let vField = subfield(vTable_Field,',',2);

INNER JOIN ($(vTable))
LOAD DISTINCT $(vField)
Resident EmpDetails
Where NAME = '$(vName1)' and MonthYear = 'MAR 2016';
Concatenate
LOAD DISTINCT $(vField)
Resident EmpDetails
Where NAME = '$(vName2)' and MonthYear = 'APR 2016';
next vTable_Field
