Purpose
This tutorial walks you through the steps that are needed to create a project and an interface in Oracle Data Integrator (ODI) to export a flat file to another flat file.
Time to Complete
Approximately 40 minutes
Overview
A common task that is performed using ODI is to export data from a flat file and load this data into another flat file. This tutorial walks you through the steps that are needed to create a project and an interface that will import a file to a staging area, perform some minor transformations, and then write the data to a file. You also execute the interface and verify the execution using ODI Operator.
Scenario
Linda works as a database administrator for Global Enterprise. In Global Enterprise, Linda is responsible for performing database management and integration tasks on various resources within the organization. In particular, Linda is responsible for data loading, transformation, and validation. To begin working on her projects, Linda created the new Master repository and Work repository. Now Linda needs to create a project and an interface to export data from a flat file, perform transformations, and load this data into another flat file.
Software and Hardware Requirements (Optional)

The following is a list of software requirements: The system should include the following installed products: Oracle Database 11g Oracle Data Integrator 11gR1 If not done before, start the services and components for Oracle Database 11g
Prerequisites
Before you start the tasks, make sure that your system environment meets the following requirements: 1 . Have installed Oracle Database 11g. If not done before, start the services and components for Oracle Database 11g 2 . Have installed Oracle Data Integrator 11gR1 3 . Before attempting this OBE, you should have successfully completed the following OBE: Creating and Connecting to ODI Master and Work Repositories. To access this OBE, click HERE.

4 For this interface, Linda has to import a flat file into the SQL staging area, and then export the file to a different flat file. The Knowledge Modules (KMs) . required for this are LKM File to SQL and IKM SQL to File Append. To import the KMs, click the Project tab in the left panel and expand the Knowledge Modules folder. Right-click Loading (LKM) and select Import Knowledge Modules.
Note: In this example, the generic SQL KMs are used. However, specific KMs for the RDBMS technology can be used as well.
5 On the screen that follows,in the File Name, navigate to xml-reference directory as shown in the following screenshot. Click Open.The files to import should . appear in the Import Knowledge Modules window. Press and hold the CTRL key to select IKM SQL to File Append and LKM File to SQL. Click

Creating a New Physical Schema for the Flat File Model

To create a Physical schema for a new flat file model, perform the following steps:
7 Click Topology tab. In Topology navigator, click the Physical Architecture tab, select Technologies > File. Right-click FILE_GENERIC, and then select New Phy . Schema.
8 For the Directory (Schema) and Directory (Work Schema) fields, enter the path to the directory, where your input flat files are located ( C:\Oracle\Middleware . \Oracle_ODI1\oracledi\demo\file ). Select Default check box, and then click Save button. Close editing window for your new physical schema. On the Informatio window that follows, click OK. Verify that your new Physical schema was added under the FILE_GENERIC data server in the Technologies tree view.
