Type: STRING
Valid Values: 'NO_MAINTENANCE', 'NO_MAINTENANCE_WITH_ERROR_TABLE', 'REJECT', 'DEFAULT_PARENT' 
Default: 'NO_MAINTENANCE' 
Data policy for loading dimension where OWB mapping code relies on 
database constraints to detect the orphans (null parent references). 
'NO_MAINTENANCE', OWB does not actively enforce the parentage integrity rule that requires every child record to have a parent. 
'NO_MAINTENANCE_WITH_ERROR_TABLE', Same as NO_MAINTENANCE, and additionally an error table will be deployed, thus orphan management can be switched on at the map level. 
'REJECT', the policy for loading dimension where OWB mapping code will actively detect the orphans (level records without parent) and reject them. 
'DEFAULT_PARENT', the policy for loading dimension where OWB mapping code will actively detect the orphans (level records without parent) and assign them under default parent.

Name: LOAD_POLICY_FOR_INVALID_KEY
Type: STRING
Valid Values: 'NO_MAINTENANCE', 'NO_MAINTENANCE_WITH_ERROR_TABLE', 'REJECT', 'DEFAULT_PARENT' 
Default: 'NO_MAINTENANCE' 
Data policy for loading dimension where OWB mapping code relies on 
database constraints to detect the orphans (could contain a value that is not actually found in the parent). 
'NO_MAINTENANCE', OWB does not actively enforce the parentage integrity rule that requires every child record to have a parent. 
'NO_MAINTENANCE_WITH_ERROR_TABLE', Same as NO_MAINTENANCE, and additionally an error table will be deployed, thus orphan management can be switched on at the map level. 
'REJECT', the policy for loading dimension where OWB mapping code will actively detect the orphans (level records without parent) and reject them. 
'DEFAULT_PARENT', the policy for loading dimension where OWB mapping code will actively detect the orphans (level records without parent) and assign them under default parent.

Name: REMOVE_POLICY
Type: STRING
Valid Values: 'NO_MAINTENANCE', 'REJECT' 
Default: 'NO_MAINTENANCE' 
Data policy for remove dimension data where OWB relies on database 
constraints to detect removal of parent records who still have child records.  
'NO_MAINTENANCE', does not actively enforce the parentage integrity rule that requires 
every child record to have a parent. 
'NO_MAINTENANCE_WITH_ERROR_TABLE', Same as NO_MAINTENANCE, and additionally an error table will be deployed, thus orphan management can be switched on at the map level. 
'REJECT', data policy for loading dimension where OWB mapping code will actively 
reject the removal of parent records who still have child records. 
#'CASCADE', data policy for removing dimension data where OWB mapping code will  
#actively detect the removal of parent records who still have child records,  
#and remove all of the descendents.
