Synchronous and Asynchronous execution in ODI

In data warehouse designing, an important step is to deciding which step is before/after. Newly added packages and required DW data must be analyzed carefully. Synchronous addings can lengthen ETL duration. Interfaces, procedures without generated scenario cannot be executed in parallel. Only scenario executions can be parallel in ODI. Default scenario execution is synch in ODI.

I have created a package as interfaces executes as; INT_JOBS parallel  INT_REGIONS synch  INT_REGIONS synch  INT_COUNTRIES synch  INT_LOCATIONS parallel  INT_EMPLOYEES parallel (Interfaces are independent.) Selecting beginning and ending times and durations from repository tables as ODI 11g operator is not calculating these values. It is obvious in ODI 10g operator. SELECT    sess_no...
