To change individual Sampling Criteria for the extract:

In this field…

Do the following:

Sampling Criteria:
Dep

Type a 2 in the Dep column next to the following relationship:

0007 'TSOID01.FRSAMP.CUSTOMER' ===> 'TSOID01.FRSAMP.CONTACTT'

Sampling Criteria:
MaxRow

Type a 7 in the MaxRow column next to the following relationship:

0009 'TSOID01.FRSAMP.CUSTOMER' ===> CUSTOMER_TABLE

Command

Type the GRAPHIC primary command to view the graphic representation of the relationships to be extracted.

Press Enter

Field Names and Descriptions

Only the Sampling Criteria fields are new for this screen:

FIELD

DESCRIPTION

Sampling Criteria




Displays the status of the three sampling criteria settings for each relationship. Initially, the sampling criteria are set globally as specified in your current extract profile. You can change each individual setting simply by typing over a new value or use the CHANGE primary command to globally change the sampling criteria fields.

Cycle

Specify the maximum number of cycles for all relationships leading from the object. Cycle count limits the number of times a relationship is visited during an extract.

MaxRow

Specify the maximum number of rows to extract via downward navigation (direct, indirect and sibling) of this relationship. The Max Rows profile value applies to each relationship and each object. The relationship Max Rows value is processed first; if the count does not exceed the limit, the record is passed on to check against the object Max Rows value.

Dep

(Dependents-per-parent) Enter the maximum number of dependent records to be extracted for each parent record extracted. An asterisk (*) indicates that File-AID/RDX will extract all dependent records. A value of 2, for example, specifies to select no more than 2 dependent ORDER records for each extracted parent CUSTOMER records. This value is used only when extract processing proceeds from a parent to a dependent object. For KEY relationships, this field is not applicable.

For descriptions of the remaining field names, primary and line commands, see Field Names and Descriptions.

 

Tip: For faster searching, add an asterisk to the end of your partial query. Example: cert*
