Multiple Values for EventOrder

Antje

Hi,

I've got a problem concerning the EventOrder Attribute. XESAME seems only to support one value for this Attribute. But in fact I need two values for this attribute. My problem ist that only the combination of 2 attributes identifies the correct order of the events. Therefore I need to define something like "order by a, b". After executing a mapping with 2 values in EventOrder it doesn´t finish anymore. It stays in Step 4 creating a trace. I need to close the whole application to continue.

So is there any solution fo rmy problem?

kind regards,

antje

Hi Antje,

You could concatenate the values, for instance by filling in ' a & "-" & b ' to create the order string 'a-b'.

Hope this helps.

Hi Joos,

yes, I had the same idea. But unfortunately that doesn´t work.

For instance I've got 2 concatenated values:

Value A: "5.02.2002 14:21:07 16"

Value B: "5.02.2002 14:21:07 5"

If I order the eventlog by these values, B always comes after A. But in fact it happened before A.

Anyway as a workaround I`ve created a new database table with a order sequence. This solved my problem so far. But I would be really happy, if there will be any functionality in future to support 2 order attributes.

kind regards,
