SQL Load

[#1]

Hello!

I am struggling with a data model based off of a SQL query from Teradata. The code is below. I am getting an ODBC Error. I have 4 other Loads connecting to the same DB without any problem. I have checked the query against Teradata directly and it works perfectly, even as a copy/paste. Can any one help?

SalesByProd:
LOAD
"ENTRY_DATE" & "PRODUCT" & "INV_NUM" as "ID",
Trim("PRODUCT") & Trim("PACK") & Trim("WH") as "PRODWHID",
"INV_NUM",
Trim("PRODUCT") & Trim("PACK") as "PRODUCT",
*;

SQL SELECT
"RECORD_ID",
"SM",
"WH",
"ACCT_NUM",
"PRODUCT",
"PACK",
"INV_NUM",
"post_date",
"QTY_ORD",
"QTY_DEL",
"ENTRY_DATE",
"ENTRY_TIME",
"ENTRY_BY",
"ORD_STATUS",
"DELMSG",
"DELDT",
"DELETE_DT",
"OR_TIME",
"DELETED_BY",
"REASON"
FROM "PROD_WHOLESALE_VIEWS"."WSale_PDS_ORDERS_COMB"
WHERE PCAT > 8 and PCAT < 27 and ENTRY_DATE > date - 367;

In your load you are loading two fields twice with the same name. QlikView will not accept that.

Since you use "INV_NUM" and "PRODUCT" which you also will be loading since you have a * too you get the duplicate fields names... Try calling them something else and see what happens...

That solved the problem! I also discovered that the DBAs created several date/time fields that all have the same name but are not relevant to the data. That caused Qlikview to create invalid associations. Wildcard Select statements are not always the best.

Thank you, Petter!
