Introduction:
In this exercise we are going to learn many cases where we require to apply
various rules in order to ensure the data maps as per target system need. The
summary of the data quality check is as below.

Objective:
In this example, we performed data quality check. These are requirement for
Check the Account Data.
• Account Number Should be exactly 8 Char Long.
• Account Number starting with zero replace with X character.
• Branch_code split to Country, State and Branch_Area_Code.
• The Difference between "Account Open Date" and "Account Close Date"
can't be < 30 days.
• in Dim_Account F_ATM_FACILITY, F_INTERNET_FACILITY is used to find the
branch status code.

Summary:
Source Table - DIM_ACCOUNT
Target Table - TRG_ACCOUNT_DETAILS
BRANCH_GRADE

Process:
 Launch Informatica Power Center Designer 9.0.1
 Import source table in Source analyzer
 Import target table in Target Designer.
 Create mapping in Mapping Designer.
 Create filter transformation to filter the source data.
 Create expression transformation to define the expression.
 In Informatica power center workflow manager, Create workflow and
assign session and relational connection.
 Execute workflow.
 In information power center workflow monitor, check session execution.
 Review data in Target Designer or Target connection.
 Check log execution.

Mapping Sheet:

Importing Source and Target Table
Import data from source and create target table (There are two types to
create target table, Manually or import from database). There are following step
to importing source and target database (Table).

Step-1 Click on Start > All Programs > Informatica 9.0.1 > Client > Power
Center Client> Power Center Designer.

Step-2 Then Connect to Repository in Informatica Power Center Designer Right
click on repository name and click on Connect.

Right Click on
InfoRepoUser.

Step-3 Then go to Tools Menu and click on Source Analyzer to import source
table.

Select Source Analyzer

Step-4 And then go to Sources Menu in Informatica Power Center Designer
Menu bar and select Import from database (Here some other options available
such as Import from Database(import source data from RDBMS), Import from
File(import source data from Flatfile), Import from Cobol File(import Cobol
source), Import XML Definition(import source data from XML) etc.).

Click on Import
from
Database.

Step-5 Specify Username, Owner name and password then click on connect.
Select source table and click on OK if you select all table, then click on select all
and click OK.

Step-6 Source table in source analyzer window. Then right click on Source
table and select Preview Data to view data. If you want to edit some column
and its relationship then you can do this from select Edit options. and also some
other options available such as Export Objects, Compare Objects,
Dependencies.., Iconize etc.

Step-7 When you click on Preview Data, A new window appear. Select ODBC
data source connection and then specify Username, Owner name and Password
and then click on Connect button.

Step-8 Now click on Target Designer. And then select Target menu in
Informatica Power Center Designer Menu bar and click on Import from database
to import target table. (Or create manually, In target menu click on create
select database type and click OK. Then add column in Edit window. If target
table stored in any RDBMS then select target table and then go to target menu
and click on Generate/Execute SQL... Generate/Execute window appears. Then
click on connect option and connect to database and specify information and
then click on Generate and Execute ).

Step-9 Specify Username, Owner name, password and then click on connect
and then select target table and click on OK.

Step-10 Target table in Target Designer tab. Here two target table in target
designer window.
First Target Table(TRG_ACCOUNT_DETAILS) - Store all account information.
Second Target Table(Branch Grade) - Store Branch_CD and Grade.

Create Mapping:
Mappings represent the data flow b/w sources to targets. When the
Informatica Power Center Server executes a session, it uses the instructions
configured in the mapping to read, transform, and write data.
Every mapping must contain the following components:
Source definition: It describes the characteristics of a source.
Transformation: A transformation is a repository object which reads the data,
modifies the data and passes the data. Transformations in a mapping represent
the operations that the integration service performs on the data.
Target definition: It describes the target table.
Step-1 Go to Mapping Designer and Create New Mapping for the Data
Quality Check and then name of mapping and click OK button.

Step-2 Then drag and drop source and target table into Mapping Designer
Window.

Step-3 Then Create Filter transformation for filter data means Account
Number Should be exactly 8 Char Long and The Difference between
"Account Open Date" and "Account Close Date" can't be less than 30
days.

Select Filter
transformation in drop
down.

Step-4 Now, passes all source qualifier column into filter table.

Page 10

Step-5 Right click on Filter table to give the filter condition.

Step-5 Go to properties table and in Transformation Attribute to give value of
Filter Condition.

Page 11

Step-6 Now, click on Functions tab and select LENGHT function to count the
length of V_ACCOUNT_NUMBER then select = operator and 8 number. This
query fetch only that records which length is equal to 8. And then select
AND operator and select DATE_DIFF function to count the difference between
Account_Start_Date and Account_Close_Date. And then select > operator and
select 30 number. This is query fetch only that value which date
difference is not less than 30. And Complete query fetch only that records
which satisfy two condition.
• Account Number Should be exactly 8 Char Long.
• The Difference between "Account Open Date" and "Account Close Date"
can't be < 30 days

Step-7 Now, click on Validate button to validate it.

Step-8 Now create expression transformation for split the account number into
COUNTRY_CD, STATE_CD, BRANCH_CD and if account number starting with zero
then replace with x character. And also define its grade.

Step-9 Now passes all filter table column into expression transformation table

Page 13

Step-10 Now right click on Expression table and select Edit.

Step-11 Now go to Ports tab and add new port for output of
V_ACCOUNT_NUMBER, Country_CD, State_CD, Branch_CD and Branch_Grade
and click only Output(O) ports then give expression for these port into
expression editor.

CREATE WORKFLOW
Workflow Manager: Workflow load the data between source to target b/w
sequential manner. And also Define run-time properties for a mapping, known
as sessions.
Step-1 Open Informatica PowerCenter Workflow Manager and then go to go to
workflow designer and click on workflow menu to create workflow. Specify
name of workflow and click OK.

Page 19

Step-2 Workflow Designer.

Step-3 Create Task and assign session, Click on Task menu and click on create
and then name of session, click Create, select mapping and click OK.

SESSION - A session is a set of instructions that tells the Power Center Server
how and when to move data from sources to targets.

Page 20

Step-4 Session in workflow designer windows.

Step-5 Now create flow B/W Workflow to Task. Select Line Task and link to
Start to s_Data_Quality_Check.

Link Task - Link task to determine the order of execution in the workflow.

Step-6 Work Flow Designer Windows.

Step-7 Now Configure Connection to Target, Then Right Click on Expression
and Edit, Then Click Mapping tab and configure connection for your Target
table schema in oracle 11g RDBMS. And then click OK.

Page 21

Step-8 In Mapping. Specify Connection and property.

Step-9 Set These property for target table.
• Insert: Check this option to insert a row in the target table.
• Delete: Check this option to delete a row in the target table.
• Truncate Table: check this option to truncate the target table before
loading the data.
• Update as Update: Update the row in the target table.
• Update as Insert: Insert the row which is flagged as update.
• Update else Insert: If the row exists in the target table, then update the
row. Otherwise, insert the row.
