I have created a group field in my master file and when I try to use it in a FEX it gives me this error:

15.24.21 AE SELECT T1."GROUP1",T1."JOB_CODE",T1."JOB_TITLE" FROM
15.24.21 AE TSPMADMIN.USPD_JOBS T1 WHERE ROWNUM <= 50 ORDER BY T1."GROUP1";
(FOC1400) SQLCODE IS 904 (HEX: 00000388)
(FOC1410) SQL COLUMN NOT FOUND. (FOR TABLE: CHECK ALIAS NAMES)
: ORA-00904: "T1"."GROUP1": invalid identifier
: Erroneous token: T1
L (FOC1406) SQL OPEN CURSOR ERROR. : test_job

It lets me create this in the file OK but my group is actually called GROUP1. When I echo the file it is actually trying to read a field on my table called GROUP1 (as shown in bold from the trace)

It can't find it and seems to burp. Do these not work with Oracle or am I missing something like a SET command etc. needed to make this work?

Master

I do not believe you can use group fields on the master for relational DBMS because all the ALIAS in the master must be the name of the real RDBMS name. Try using a define in the master and concat the fields together.

Hope this helps

Thanks! That makes sense I guess. I just didn't seem to come across anything in the documentation that says you absolutely coulnd't use this with the relational dbms.

I swear I need a grid of options & code tatics vs what works on what source systems to keep it simple.
