Dear colleagues,
I want to import data from an Oracle 11g database into a SAP HANA database tables. Thus, I installed the required ODBC driver, created a Remote Source and set up Virtual Tables (following the instructions posted here). This workedvery well. And reading data using Data Preview works - but with one exception. If the source system table on Oracle contains real numbers (numbers with a fractional part, e.g. 299.1234), SAP HANA complains that it cannot parse the data. I can see that the decimal point "," (the Oracle database runs on German NLS) causes trouble.
Where can I tell the SDA stack what the decimal point looks like in a Remote Source? I found no switch in SAP HANA. Do I have to change the configuration of the ODBC driver? If so can you give me some directions?
Thank you.
Regards
Johannes
