For Campaign only: Creating and populating reporting tables

You can use SQL scripts to create and populate reporting tables for Campaign. The reports application uses reporting tables to extract reportable data.

About this task

To create and populate reporting tables for Campaign, complete the following steps.

Procedure

Create the reporting database.
Locate the SQL scripts that you generated and saved previously.
Use your database administration tools to run the appropriate script against the appropriate application database(s) for the report package that you are configuring.
For Campaign with a DB2® database, increase the DB2 heap size to at least 10240. The default heap size is 2048. Use the following command to increase the heap size:
```
db2 update db cfg for databasename using stmtheap 10240
```
where databasename is the name of the Campaign database.

Increasing the heap size ensures that HCL® Cognos® does not display SQL error messages if a user selects all the campaigns when running a report such as the Financial Summary report.
In the db/calendar subdirectory in the Marketing Platform installation directory, find the ReportsCalendarPopulate script that is appropriate for the database type.
The ReportsCalendarPopulate script creates the following tables:
- UA_Calendar
- UA_Time
Run the ReportsCalendarPopulate script on the new database that you created with the table creation script.
For DB2 only, complete one of the following tasks:
- Run the script from the command prompt by using the following command:
```
db2 -td@ -vf ReportsCalendarPopulate_DB2.sql
```
- If you use the DB2 client interface, change the termination character to the @ character in the Statement termination character field.
Use your database administration tools to populate the new tables with the appropriate data from the production system database.
Note: You must use your own tools for this step. The SQL Generator does not generate the SQL for you.
