Creating A Record Number That Auto Generates In SSIS
Jan 8, 2008
Can anyone help me figure out how to set up a new table using SSIS with a record field that will generate a unique number? The record number is also the primary key in the table. I did this about a year ago with a bit of help, but once you get the language right and initiate the creation, the text for defining the table is no longer available. I have seen a lot of references for MySQL and MS SQL 2000 and an AUTO_Generate or a UNIQUE ID. None of this works within MS SQL 2005 in SSIS.
I am inserting some data from a temp to an existing table. The existing table has a primary key that is a number that just appears to be number 1-460 (there are 460 rows in the table). The data type for the primary key is int.
When I insert from my temp table to the existing I want to be able to add the next number in but am not sure how I can set that up?? I have pasted my code below. I am inserting into Lab_test_add_conf and the primary key value is lab_test_conf_id. In my select statement where I am getting the values to input I just put a number for now but that isn't going to work. You can ignore the rest of the numbers I have inserted and commas with no values I actually need to go add those to the temp table and just set their default values but I just first wanted to determine how I can create an autonumber. This is a third party software so I don't want to change the actual datatype of the existing table.
Insert Into Lab_Test_Add_Conf (lab_test_conf_id,system_id,labtest_key,value_code, value_description,value_code_system,value_type,units,sequence_number,table_name, field_name,created_by,create_timestamp,modified_by,modify_timestamp,row_timestamp)
select '460','2250',labtestkey,valuecode,value_description,'L',value_type,units, sequence_number,table_name,field_name,'58',,'58',, from #TempLabTestConfigImport
I get this error when I look at the state of my SQLresults object. Have I coded something wrong?Item = In order to evaluate an indexed property, the property must be qualified and the arguments must be explicitly supplied by the user. conn.Open() Dim strSql As String
In SSIS, I created a flow and within that flow i need to create an automatic number generator. The flow is simple: Ole db source part, a multicast part and a flat file destination and a ole db destination. In the Ole db source there is no field that is the starting point for this generator. This automatic nr should start with 10000 and each time a row is found it should be increased by 1.
First question: is it possible to create a column in SSIS flow which is the starting point for the generator (in this case 10000) or should it be created in the source table?
Second question: where in SSIS and with what component can i create such a generator??
I'm trying to use the Import/Export Wizard as I used to, as a handy tool to figure out what a series of T-SQL statements (in an SSIS package) is doing - or, if I'm lucky, what on earth the original dev intended them to do.
Version: SQL 2014 64-bit running on Win 7 64-bit
The code is pretty dreadful:
SELECT DISTINCT on one set of column names, join this set to another table but not on exactly the same set of column names, embedded (SELECT MAX(bla) FROM SameTable WHERE [match to outer set on another set of columns] GROUP BY [hey, yet another set of columns!]) inside the SELECT column list... and it all goes to a nasty #Tmp, which is then abused with further bad code further down.
Imp/Exp is always handy to quickly get the intermediate results into an auto-created real table, so I can figure out exactly what the effect of this is. I use it to export from the database back to the same database, but to a persisted table.
This time (first time with SQL2014) it's not working. The source is "write a query" (paste the actual query). The destination I set to a new table. The auto-generation of the new table creates every column as type date. Not surprisingly, this doesn't work, as the original data is mostly not of date time.
can anyone give suggestions how to generating a number starting with certain numbers, example 33###, because when i insert new record into datatabase i want the number start 33111, or something and next record is 33112 thanks
Hi,I want to create a random unique auto generated number. dont wantto use GUIDs. Any other way to create it in isert statement itself,apart from storing a number in a table and increment while inserting.Help me!
I have a table namely Product with the following identity modifiers:- Column- "Num" Identity-Yes Identity Seed-1 Identity Increment-1
My problem is everytime i delete a row in the table Product, the Num column after the deleted row will not automatically replace the deleted Num column's data. Let say:
Num Name 30 Apple 31 Orange 32 Pineapple
If I delete row with Num 31, the Num column after the deleted row will not change to 31 but remain 32.
Num Name 30 Apple 32 Pineapple
What can I do to ensure that the Num column (Num 32) will change to Num 31?
How can I create a number sequence starting at a certain number and continue on for the number of records I have.
For example I have 3000 records in my table and a field named I created called RecordId which I'd like to start at number 1 and goto 3000 (or maybe even start at 9000 and goto 12000 or however many records there are).
In my pseudo SQL code Im guessing it would be something like...
select * from Incident
update Incident set RecordId( i=9000; i<=Number of Records in Table; i++)
create table RECORD ( ID int not null, Issue_descr varchar(256) not null, Priority varchar(5) not null, Status varchar(12) not null, Date_add varchar(10) not null, Date_due varchar(10) not null, Date_complete varchar(10), PName varchar(32), primary key(ID), foreign key(PName) references PROJECT(PName) );
and
Code:
create table STEPS ( ID int not null, Num int not null, Descr varchar(256), Date_due varchar(10) not null, Date_complete varchar(10), Status varchar(12), primary key(ID, Num), foreign key(ID) references RECORD(ID) );
I have set PK "ID" in table RECORD to auto identity(1,1). I have done the same for PK "num" in table STEPS. However I am seeking this behavior in STEPS: ID num -- ---- 19 1 19 2 19 3 20 1 20 2 21 1
but what I'm getting is PK num doesn't "reseed" or reset to 1 as "ID" changes. PK num just auto-increments regardless of ID. Is there a workaround?
Is there any option to get the velue of auto increment number before inserting record.
My problem is that I want to get the auto increment number, for this I am using MaxId function, but If i have deleted the some rows from table, I could not get the actual.
For example there are 20record s in the table I have delete the last 3 records now I have the last value of Identity is 17. When I used the Maxid function It gives me the 18 number. But I need 21.
hi, here i am trying to create a table in which i want give a property autonumber(i.e increments simultaneously for each new row) to a field.pls tell me the procedure for this in sql server2005
I am migrating a web application I wrote from ASP to ASP.Net, and fromAccess to MS SQL server.In the Access version, I did not use the auto number for creatinginvoices and other documents, because I heard somewhere (perhapsincorrectly) that if the db was ever compacted or otherwise changed,it could change the values of the auto-numbers. Not a good thing.So I wrote a routine that, just before creating a new record, wouldlook for the highest value in the table and create the new record withthe next number.So my question is, am I safe in assuming that in MS SQL that I can seta starting number for the next, let's say, invoice and that newnumbers will be issued in sequence, and that these numbers will neverchange? What happens if an invoice is deleted? is the number goneforever? Just wondering how others deal with these issues...thanks.Larry- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -"Forget it, Jake. It's Chinatown."
I have one master table and multiple detail tables. The primary key of the master table is an auto-increment number, which is a foreign key in those detail tables. I am wondering if SQL Server allows us to get the next available auto-increment number of the master table up front. Thanks a lot.
Does anyone know an easier way to create DB Maint Plans instead of having to create each one manually? i.e. Copy Maint Plans from 1 server to another automatically. Does anyone know of a quick export method.
I have the following situation; I have one table (tblA) in which a new record just has been inserted. Once this insert is completed successfully, I want to insert a variable number of records into another table (tblB). The primary key of tblA is being used inside tblB as one of the columns in each insert. I’ve already been able to transfer the primary key, generated by the insert for tblA, pretty easy. But to make things a bit more complicated, the variable number of records to add is being decided by the outcome of a query based on an entry inside tblA (after the insert) and this is then being run on another table (tblC). The SELECT statement from tblC combined with the Select parameter from tblA will then decide how many records I have to insert. Sorry for the (perhaps) confusing way of writing this down, but I’ve been struggling with this for a couple of days now and I really need to get it working. Anybody who can help?Thanks in advance,Sunny Guam
Hi, in Access, I can use an Auto-Increment number for my primary key field. May I know how do I do that in SQL Express?
In addition, is there any tutorial on how to use SQL Express to generate customised unique numbers (such as membership number, Customer ID such as A001 where A is based on the customer's name while 001 is due to the fact that the customer is the first among those with names starting with A)?
I am attempting to import data from a Lotus Notes database using DTS. The SQL table I am importing to has an identifying auto-number. I can't insert directly into it because the SQL server should, however I get an error if I ignore it in the DTS package. Is there any way to get around this?
i am trying to insert an auot number field in my table which has got about million rows but sql 2005 is giving me na error "cant insert" i need to index my table so that the query runs faster when i perform joins on two of such huge tables.. i tryid inserting the identity key the way it was mentioned in the forum but sql doesnt let me do that??
Hello I have a table with two columns. First column is type and second column is ID. ID column must be unique and I want to give values in ascending order to the new records. For example first record's ID is 1 ,second one's is 2 ... How can I do this in sql server 2005?
Hi,Please can you let me know the best solution for creating a primary key which automatically increments by 1 each time a record is added. My current Primary key is of type "Int" which increments by 1 each time, but I would like my primary key to contain "ABC" before the 1. So each time a record is added I would like to see:-ABC000001 ABC000002ABC000003Etc, EtcI am using SQL Server 2000 and creating an ASP.Net application, will I need to write code in a Stored Procedure to do this?Regards,Brett
Need help on the Auto Number or Identity Seed on the Oracle DatabaseI got an Access database that need to be converted to Oracle 9i.Somehow the Trigger we created to simulate the "AUTO NUMBER" on Accesscould not create the sequence number as soon as the value has beeninserted. The sequence number can only be created after we go to thesecond line. Please see the trigger below.Is there anyway we could create a trigger that could create thesequence number as soon as we enter a value? It should be verysimilar to the "Auto Number" on Access, or "Identity Seed" on SQLServer.----------------------------------------------------------1. sequence SNP.SECTION_ID_SQ:CREATE SEQUENCE SNP.SECTION_ID_SQSTART WITH 1INCREMENT BY 1NOMINVALUENOMAXVALUENOCYCLECACHE 20NOORDER/GRANT SELECT ON SNP.SECTION_ID_SQ TO "PUBLIC"/2.

Hi, I use the SqlDataSource Control for generating SQL-statements that I easily can modify. But on some tables I cant autogenerate the statements for Insert, Delete and Update. The checkbox is dimmed/not enabled. Why cant I use the autogenerate feature on some tables?
