Category 2 Customization: Overview



• Category 2 customizations use prepackaged adapters to add new fact or dimension tables to the Oracle Business Analytics Warehouse.
• Category 2 customizations normally require that you build new source-dependent extract (SDE) and source-independent load (SIL) objects.
 

In a Category 2 customization, you use prepackaged adapters to add new fact or dimension tables to the Oracle Business Analytics Warehouse. Category 2 customizations normally require that you build new SDE and SIL mappings.
A typical Category 2 customization involves building entirely new tables that will be loaded with data from a source table that is not already extracted from. For example, you might want to create a new PARTNER dimension table. In this case, you create new dimension and staging tables as well as new extract and load ETL mappings.
In the example in the slide, you would use the PARTNERtable in the source system to capture data related to partners. You would then load the data into a new dimension staging table and subsequentlya new dimension table in the data warehouse.
