For your initial ETL run, you need to configure the GRAIN parameter for the time aggregation level in the Purchase Cycle Lines Aggregate fact table. For the incremental ETL run, you need to configure the time aggregation level and the source identification. The source identification value represents the source system you are sourcing data from. You need to configure two parameters to aggregate the Purchase Cycle Lines table for your incremental run: The GRAIN parameter has a preconfigured value of Month. The possible values for the GRAIN parameter are: Table 72 lists the values for the SOURCE_ID parameter. The value of this parameter is preconfigured to reflect the ETL mapping's folder. NOTE: You can change the default value for the Source ID parameter if you use multiple instances of the same source system. For example, you can run multiple instances of SAP R/3 and use separate Source IDs for each instance. You can name the first instance SAPR3_1, the second instance SAPR3_2, and so on. The Purchase Cycle Lines aggregate table is fully loaded from the base table in the initial ETL run. The table can grow to millions of records. The Purchase Cycle Lines aggregate table is not fully reloaded from the base table after an ETL run. Siebel Customer-Centric Enterprise Warehouse minimize the incremental aggregation effort, by modifying the aggregate table incrementally as the base table gets updated. This process is done in four steps:
