Title: Building model from 2 schemas of a single database
Post by: techieaman on 13 May 2010 03:45:24 AM
Hi All,

Can anyone shed some light on the possibility of using 2 schemas from the same database for FM MODEL creation?

database is oracle and the 2 schemas in question have views/tables needed for the model.

Thanks in advance for your inputs

regards,

aman

What is the problem?  This should be very straightforward.  Are you getting errors of some sort?

Regards,

MF.

You definitely can include tables/views from 2 different schemas in FM. Only in FM you will see 2 instances of the same datasource, for eg. if your initial datasource for a database was named DS, and you pull a new table from a different schema using the same datasource, only in FM you will see a datasource called DS1, and so on as you keep adding tables from different schemas. So, the SQL only in FM for these database querysubjects would show up as select * from [DS].table1 or select * from [DS1].table2 etc.,.....
