Analysis :: Which Data Type To Use For Variable Values
Aug 19, 2015
I am trying to find what datatype I can use for variable values like below in a column
E.g. column which we get
10000.10
100
180.34
98203710231.34
From the above example, you can see some of the values contains no decimal and with decimal
Also we cant say whether the decimal comes after the 5th number or 10th number. Any other datatype to capture this values. If not last option is to give varchar2.

I am using the following approach to enable dynamic date calculations: [URL] ...
However, some measures I work with are percentages (not numeric values) and demand a different formula.
See example snippet bellow (first IIF statement)
/*Calendar*/
[Date Calculation].[Calculation].[Calendar Actual versus PY WK %] =
IIF
(
[measures].Name = "HSP2 %", -- < ThIs is where I am trying to check if the measure is a percetgae type
0, -- < When this is the case then do something different
[Code] ....
I am trying to access the metadata. I am aware of $system.mdschema_measures but I am unable to utulize this for my case.

Hi all,
I am trying to extract certain data from MySQL
(example sql statement is SELECT COLUMN1, COUNT(COLUMN2) FROM TABLE
GROUP BY COLUMN1) and stored COLUMN1 and COUNT(COLUMN2) values into
variables and then copy the values from the variables and insert them
into a new table in sql server 2005 and has two columns in it (COLUMN1
of type nvarchar and COLUMN2 of type int). I can map the first output
(COLUMN1) correctly to variable type String and store them in the new
table in sql server 2005 (store the value in a variable type String and
then use insert and store it into sql server using parameter in Execute
Sql Task set the data type to NVARCHAR, but I cannot map the second
output (COUNT(COLUMN2)) using the same method, I could not even get it
to store into a variable of any type. Anyone have any idea how to go
about it? Thanks in advance.
The output of the sql statement for MySQL should look like:
COLUMN1 COUNT(COLUMN2)
----------------------------------------
aaa 101
bbb 232
ccc 542

how to pass the numeric(12,0) data type to a variable in SSIS? what kind of variable data type should I choose?
I am trying to assign object_key column ( numeric(12,0)) to a variable in SSIS
If i select int32 , it keep giving me an error:
Error: 0xC001F009 at Row by Row process: The type of the value being assigned to variable "User::Object_Key" differs from the current variable type. Variables may not change type during execution. Variable types are strict, except for variables of type Object.

Is there anyway to change the data type of a variable while in an expression?
My problem is I am trying to compare a variable w/ a string data type to a variable w/ an object data type. I would change the data type of the variable from object to string but if I do that my sql task fails when it tries to write a value to that variable. The variable w/ the object data type is the result of an openquery sql stmnt. So I guess there are two ways around my problem.
1. Change data type of variable while in an expression..ie flow constriant
or
2. Change data type of vraiable from object to string and still get the openquery result to work.
Any help???
Thanks !!

HI Experts,
I have same table structures in two database and one master table which contains Table id, Table name,primary key, data type of primary key. i have to comapare
Tables in both tha database and as per result i have to do insert,update or delete.
for that i have written query :
DECLARE @rowcount_mastertable FLOAT
SET @rowcount_mastertable = (select count(*) from master_table)
DECLARE @TABLE_ID float,
@TABLE_NAME varchar (100),
@primary_key varchar (100),
@Primarykey_DATATYPE varchar (50),
DECLARE @COUNTER FLOAT
SET @COUNTER = 1
WHILE (@Counter <= @rowcount_mastertable)
Begin
SET @TABLE_NAME = (SELECT TABLE_NAME FROM MASTER_TABLE TABLE_ID = @COUNTER)
SET @primary_key = (SELECT primary_key FROM MASTER_TABLE WHERE TABLE_ID = @COUNTER)
SET @Primarykey_DATATYPE = (SELECT Primarykey_DATATYPE FROM MASTER_TABL WHERE TABLE_ID = @COUNTER)
--In below line i want to declare a variable and datatype should be same as what we got from master table so that i can use this @MAX_primary_key to fetch --max of primary key from table name where table id is 1
DECLARE @MAX_primary_key @Primarykey_DATATYPE
SELECT @MAX_primary_key = MAX(@primary_key) FROM @TABLE_NAME
WHERE TABLE_ID = @COUNTER
---But by running it i am getting error that "Incorrect syntax near '@Primarykey_DATATYPE'. and "Must declare the variable '@MAX_primary_key'.
Please suggest
Thanks in Advance

Greetings my SSIS friends
I am attempting to create an expression as follows:
"Select * from someTable where someColumn >= " + (dt_str, 25, 1252) @[User::DateTimeVariable]
The problem is that my variable is a Datetime field and when I convert it to string, the string will not execute correctly.
How to solve this problem?

I have managed to use the BI Wizard for time intelligence and added YTD and MTD successfully. I notice the values returned are empty, and I think this is due to the fact that all the test data I use is many years old. What's the simplest way to resolve this issue so that I can see that these MDX functions return correct values? Changing the system date on this company laptop is not an option.

Hi all,
I am creating a customer data flow component for SSIS for use in a package. I've got some custom properties that I am exposing using the supplied advanced editor (no custom property editor here).
Some of my properties are enumerated types, and I have deciphered how to get those properties to show as dropdown lists of their respective enumerations. (For those of you who may be looking as hard as I did as to how to accomplish this, see the end of this post.)
I also have a few properties which request SSIS package variable names - such as an file name variable. However, I can't figure out how to tell the advanced editor that the property is looking for an SSIS variable, so that it can show a dropdown list of package variables, much like virtually any other Microsoft supplied Data Flow component can.
Is there a Type Converter I could specify for those custom properties? Is there another way to instruct SSIS that my custom property is expecting a variable? Or do I need to code a custom UI for editing my Data Flow Task?
To create a dropdown list of values for a custom property that represents an enum, do the following:
1. Create your enum definition, such as "public enum ThisIsMyEnum { one, two }"
2. Create a new class that inherits from TypeConverter, such as "public class MyEnumConverter : TypeConverter"
3. Override "CanConvertFrom", and return true if "sourceType == typeof(string)"
4. Override "CanConvertTo", and return true if "destinationType == typeof(string)"
5. Override "ConvertFrom", and return the enum value (such as "one" or "two" in my example) that corresponds to the string passed in the parameter "value"
6. Override "ConvertTo", and return a string that corresponds to the enum value passed in the parameter "value"
7. Override "GetStandardValuesSupported" and return true
8. Override "GetStandarValuesExclusive" and return true to indicate that ONLY the enum values should be accepted
9. Override "GetStandardValues", and return a new StandardValuesCollection constructed with Enum.GetValues() of your enum, such as "return new StandardValuesCollection(Enum.GetValues(typeof(ThisIsMyEnum)));"
10. Just above your "public enum" declaration, add a "TypeConverter" attribute to link your type converter to your enum, such as "[TypeConverter(typeof(MyEnumConverter))]"
11. In "ProvideComponentProperties", after you've created your custom property like this: "IDTSCustomProperty90 propEnum = ComponentMetaData.CustomPropertyCollection.New()", add another line to specify the TypeConverter property of the property to the full assembly name of your type converter, like so: "propEnum.TypeConverter = typeof(MyEnumConverter).AssemblyQualifiedName;"

Hello There:
I am running a data flow within a ForEach loop wherein I am computing a value called QuotaGap. When it is 0 I do not want any further execution of the loop. I am using a Conditional Transform within this dataflow that writes a record to a table only when the QuotaGap is NOT 0. However, I am unable to terminate the execution of the loop as I am still within the dataflow.
Now, the computation of the gap requires a value from another variable called NetPurchases. I tried using an ExecuteSQL task in the control flow but could not figure out how to pass the value of the variable NetPurchases into the select statement to compute the gap. For example, the select statement would read:
select (QuotaUpperLimit - ?) As QuotaGap from <<tablename>>
I tried setting the parameter as an input as well as an output and it did not work.
Then I tried passing the entire SQL as a string within a variable. This does not work either because in order to compute the math QuotaUpperLimit - NetPurchases, both variables need to be integers but then you cannot concatenate integres together, which is what we need to do to create the SQL.
The other reason I am going through these hoops I guess is that I have not figured out a way to set the value of a variable within a data flow. I compute the value for QuotaGap within the dataflow in a ForEach loop but I have no way to pass this result to a variable called QuotaGap without using an ExecuteSQL task or another ForEach Loop.
I have spent hours on this simple issue and so have given up and looking to the good friends in this forum for help.
If what I have stated is not clear please let me know and I will try to clarify things a bit.
Thanks!

Does abyone know how to compare data-type xml in a temp/variable/physical table in MSSQL 2000?
I tried this works in MSSQL 2005,
Code Snippet
create Table #t1 ([c1] int identity(1,1) not null, [c2] text)
create Table #t2 ([c1] int identity(1,1) not null, [c2] text)
Insert into #t1
Values('This is a test')
Insert into #t2
Values('This is a test')
Select * from #t1
Select * from #t2
Select * from #t1 where [c2] LIKE (Select [c2] from #t2)
drop table #t1
drop table #t2
but not MSSQL 2000.
Server: Msg 279, Level 16, State 3, Line 12
The text, ntext, and image data types are invalid in this subquery or aggregate expression.
Is this true (from BOL)?
Code SnippetIn comparing these column values, if any of the columns to be compared are of type text, ntext, or image, FOR XML assumes that values are different (although they may be the same because Microsoft® SQL Server„¢ 2000 does not support comparing large objects); and elements are added to the result for each row selected.

I was working on figuring out where a certain application wasstoring the multiple selection choices I was doing through the app.I finally figured out that they were being store in an IMAGEdata type colum with the variable length of 26 bytes.This is the first time I ran into such way of storing multipleselections in a single Image data type.Is this a better alternative than to store into a One-to-Manytables? If so then I'll have to consider using the Image datatype approach next time I have to do something like storing1 to thousands of selections.Thank you

Bitmask fields! I am capturing row changes manually via a high frequency ETL task. Â It works effectively however i am capturing the movement of multiple fields. Â A simple example, for Order lines, i have a price, a discount and a date. Â I am capturing a 001, 010, 100 respectively for each change. Â
I would like my users to be able to select from a dimension which has the 3 members in it and they can select one, multiples, or all values (i.e. only want to see rows that have had the date and price changed).Â
Obviously if i only had 3 columns i would use bit's and be done with it, i have many different values (currently around 24 and growing).

I have an SSIS package that creates a csv file based on a execute sql task.
The sql is incredibly simple select singlecolumn from table.
In the properties of the execute sql task I specify the result set as "full result set" when I run it I get the error that: Error:
The type of the value being assigned to variable "User::CSVoutput" differs from the current variable type.
Variables may not change type during execution. Variable types are strict, except for variables of type Object.
If I change the resultset to single row then I only get the first row from the DB (same if I choose none), If I choose XML then I get the error that the result is not xml. What resultset type do I need to choose in order to get all the rows into the CSV? The variable I am populating is of type string and is User::CSVoutput

My question is, how to insert the values from variable into a table (table variable or temp table or CTE).OR Is there any way to parse the multiple values into a table. like if we pass multiple values into a parameter. those should go into a table as rows.

System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: The conversion of a char data type to a
datetime data type resulted in an out-of-range datetime value.
Notes: all pages that have this error either has a repeater or datagrid which load data when page loading.
At first I thought the problem is with the date, but then I can see
that some other pages that has datagrid ( that has a date field) work
just fine.
anyone having this problem before?? hopefully you guys can help.

I am creating a table on SQL Server. One of the columns in this new table contains whole integer as wells as decimal values (i.e. 4500 0.9876). I currently have this column defined as Decimal(12,4). This adds 4 digits after the decimal point to the whole integers. Is there a data type that will have the decimal point only for decimal values and no decimal point for the whole integers?

Hi,
I can populate a dataTable with type double (C#) of say '1055.01' however when I save these to the CE3.5 database using a float(CE3.5) I lose the decimal portion. The 'offending' code is:
this.court0TableAdapter1.Update(this.mycourtsDataSet1.Court0);
this.mycourtsDataSet1.AcceptChanges();
this.court0TableAdapter1.Fill(this.mycourtsDataSet1.Court0);
This did not happen with VS2005/CE3.01.
I have tried changing all references to decimal (or money in CE3.5) without luck.
I'm beginning to think that string may be the way to go!!!!!!!
Can someone shed some light on my problem.
Thanks,
Later:
It's necessary to update the datatable adapter as the 3.01 and 3.5 CE are not compatible.

We have some columns in a table where the date is stored as 19980101 (YYYYMMDD). The data type for this column is NUMBER(8) in Oracle.
I need to copy rows from Oracle to SQL Server using SSIS. I used the Data Conversion transformation editor to change it to DT_DATE, but the rows are not being inserted to the destination.
On Error, If I fail the component, then the error is :
There was an error with input column "ORDER_DATE_CONV" (1191) on input "OLE DB Destination Input" (29). The column status returned was: "Conversion failed because the data value overflowed the specified type.".

I have a bridge table used in my current design, the relation ship is FactTable -> DimRoom -> BridgeTable -> BedGrpoup. Fact table is joined with the Dim room dimension on room key, the bridge table maps values from the DimRoom and BedGroup dimension. The scenario I have is that the mapping between room and bed group can change during which I'm recording it in the effective date attribute in the bridge table.
Dimension usage on the cube is having a many to many relationship with bridge table.Example, if a fact occurred in room 100 which belonged to Bed Group A in Jan 2015 and then the room changed to Bedgroup b in feb 2015 and another fact happened in the  room then I should have 1 count for jan in A and 1 in B for feb, I get that right when sliced by room, but when I slice by Month the cube does not honour time dim and displays both. I tried mapping the date from the bridge table to the fact as a regular relationship but that does not work either.

I have a fact, like this
DimCustomerKey, DimCardKey, Amount
1, 1, 20
2, 3, 30
1, 1, 40
3, 4, 50
2, 3, 50
I want a report like this
1, 1, 40
2, 3, 80
3, 4, 50
Logic :
- Each DimCustomerKey has only 1 DimCardKey
- If DimCardKey = 1, reported amount = max(amount)
- If DimcardKey other than 1, reported amount = sum(amount)
How can I implement this with MDX script ?
How can I implement this inside the CUBE (using scope or calculated member etc...)?

I'm having trouble with cube processing. While processing a code I'm getting a "Invalid column name MessageType" error.
I unfolded the cube, then I opened "measure groups", my failing dimension (ServiceRequestDim)Â and the partition.
In the partition I opened the "Source" attribute so it now includes my column which was missing. But it didn't solve the issue.
If I get the query used during the process I'm getting this :
SELECT
DISTINCT
[ServiceRequestDim].[MessageType] AS [ServiceRequestDimMessageType0_0]
FROM
(
Select IsNull(IsDeleted, 0) as IsDeleted, [ServiceRequestDimKey], IsNull([Status_ServiceRequestStatusId], 0) as [Status_ServiceRequestStatusId],[Status],IsNull([TemplateId_ServiceRequestTemplateId], 0) as
[Code] ....
In the nested query which defines ServiceRequestDim the messagetype attribute is still missing. In my source datamart the ServiceRequestDim has the "MessageType" column.
So the question is where do I change the nested request that the dim process use to reflect the actual columns in my datamart .
