Topic: Cross Table Taking much Time
Replies: 4

Cross table analysis has to compare each column in one table with every column in the other table, and every pair of columns in one table with every pair in the other, and maybe more depending on how you've specified the task.

No, because I don't know the exact solution. It may, for example, depend on how SAP BW is configured at your site. Wait for someone who does to post it. Meanwhile search for what others have done when this timeout error has occurred. And involve your support provider - that's what you're paying them...

Are you sure that you didn't remove the ^J characters when you removed the ^M characters?

Try working with the original file, and using a Record Terminator String property rather than a Record Terminator property.

In an after-job subroutine use DataStage API functions such as DSGetLogSummary(), DSGetNewestLogId() and DSGetLogEntry().

Try changing the action to Insert or Update (so Insert is attempted first).
What difference does that make?

Then try changing the array size to 100. Do not change rows/transaction.
What difference does that make?

Only change one thing at a time.
What is the average size of the data in a row?

If you are using DataStage EE MVS edition (that is, jobs that run on the mainframe) then JCL for running the job is generated by DataStage, and you should be able to invoke that from any COBOL program. Since you can view the COBOL that DataStage generates, you could also edit that and convert it int...

Very well, if the default behaviour is not what you require, specify the Quote character at the individual field level - right click on the row in the Columns grid choose Edit Row, and adjust the individual quote characters there.
