Hi there
I'm getting into trouble everytime I want to setup a dataflow containing 2 or more flows, where I want to make a lookup into 1 other table.
This fails, of some reason I do not know of.
ex.
Table 1 -> Lookup Currency Table -> Table2 with currency
Table 3 -> Lookup Currency Table -> Table 4 with currency
One of the lookup will fail.
How do you avoid this?

I may have misunderstood how Lookupu works because it's not doing what I want.
From the OLTP datasource I have a long list of revenue items (from a SQL server database). I want to assign these to specific accounts as they are transferred into our accounting system. I have another table with a list of words to search for and which account they belong to.
For example if the OLTP source might be
Description - Amount
"Sales of cars"- "$20,000"
"Motorcycle sales" - "$15,000"
"Bike rentals" - "$2,000"
The account lookup table is like
Wordsearch - Account
"sale" - "ACCT_SAL"
"rental" - "ACCT_RENT"
So by looking up whether "wordsearch" is found in "desription" I should get an output of
ACCT_SAL - $20,000
ACCT_SAL - $15,000
ACCT_RENT - $2,000
Back in DTS I did this with an array and "If Instr" using VBScript in the Data Transformation Task. I'm sure there must be something in SSIS to do this - it should be something like a Fuzzy Lookup ?, but I'm drifting toward Script Component. Anyone got any ideas for SSIS
I can successfully get an Oracle sequence value using an "Execute SQL Task" transform. I need to, however, be able to get the same type of value from within a dataflow. I've tried the "OLE DB Command" and the "Lookup" Transform without any luck.
With the lookup transform I run into the following problem. First of all for those of you who know about the Oracle Sequence it just returns the next value from a sequence generator using "mysequence.NEXTVAL". The lookup transform won't just return a value without providing a link. So what I attempted to do was create a derived column with a value of "0" and use the following SQL command in my lookup ( SELECT mysequence.NEXTVAL, 0 AS DUMMY from DUAL). I then linked the derived column to the DUMMY column and it appeared to work. I was able to get the sequence. However, it appears to cache the value and so for each row the sequence is the same and doesn't increment.
I then tried to unsuccessfully play around with nocache but had strange errors about "not a valid sql statement".
I then also tried the OLE DB Command with a SQL statement "SELECT mysequence.NEXTVAL FROM DUAL" but couldn't get that to work.
Does anyone have any ideas or recommendations. Please keep in mind that I HAVE to get the NEXTVAL from Oracle as this is a mandatory requirement since the source is Oracle Applications ERP and I can't make up my own sequences in SSIS or update that sequence after the fact since many other applications could be using that sequence besides me.
thanks

I Can't reproduce the error if I run the package stand-alone.
I'm using the same lookup call (same table, etc.) in 2 packages that are running in parallel (called by a parent package).
[LKP_UnderwriterId [72283]] Error: An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80040E05. An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server" Hresult: 0x80040E05 Description: "Object was open.".
Anyone seen this one?
Hi guys,
I need to use a SQL statement to lookup a value from a SQL server database table that relates to a column in my dataflow.
Imagine a SQL database table called 'cars' with values of
Year | Description
2005 Ferrari 355
2005 Ferrari 355 Spider
2006 Ferrari 355 F1
In my data flow I have Year and Model eg.
Year | Model
2005 355
2006 355
In my SQL statement I want to select from the 'cars' table where the years match exactly but the 'description' is like the 'Model'. eg. %355%
So essentially, how do I construct the 'like' clause in the select statement to reference the 'Model' column please?
thanks for your help,
Chris
We did some "at scale" fuzzy lookup tests today and were rather disappointed with the performance. I'm wanting to know your experience so I can set my performance expectations appropriately.
We were doing a fuzzy lookup against a lookup table with 25 million rows. Each row has 11 columns used in the fuzzy lookup, each between 10-100 chars. We set CopyReferenceTable=0 and MatchIndexOptions=GenerateAndPersistNewIndex and WarmCaches=true. It took about 60 minutes to build that index table, during which, dtexec got up to 4.5GB memory usage. (Is there a way to tell what % of the index table got cached in memory? Memory kept rising as each "Finished building X% of fuzzy index" progress event scrolled by all the way up to 100% progress when it peaked at 4.5GB.) The MaxMemoryUsage setting we left blank so it would use as much as possible on this 64-bit box with 16GB of memory (but only about 4GB was available for SSIS).
After it got done building the index table, it started flowing data through the pipeline. We saw the first buffer of ~9,000 rows get passed from the source to the fuzzy lookup transform. Six hours later it had not finished doing the fuzzy lookup on that first buffer!!! Running profiler showed us it was firing off lots of singelton SQL queries doing lookups as expected. So it was making progress, just very, very slowly.
We had set MinSimilarity=0.45 and Exhaustive=False. Those seemed to be reasonable settings for smaller datasets.
Does that performance seem inline with expectations? Any thoughts to improve performance?
Dear Friends,
I need to execute a SQL query, inside a dataflow (not in controlFlow) and need the records returned to continue the dataflow... In my case I cant use lookup and OLE DB COmmand and nothing else...
I need to execute a query and need the records for dataflow... with OLE DB command I cant see the fields returned... :-(
How can I do it? Using a script? Can I use a Script Component? That receive 2 parameters for input and give me the fields returned from query as output?
Thanks!!
Hello,
I have an SSIS package that contains a source to DB2 using the Native OLE DBIBM OLE DB Provider for DB2 in the connection mananger. The connection requires a specific user name and password. 'Test Connection' passes, and I am able to preview data in the OLE DB Source Editor.
The data then goes through a Data Conversion transform. The OLE DB Destination editor uses a Native OLE DBSql Native Client connection manager. 'Test Connection' passes. The SQL Server edition is 2005 Enterprise x64.
When the package is executed within Visual Studio Professional on a Windows XP (sp2) machine, The package hangs at this dataflow. I set up a data viewer between the DB2 source and the conversion transform, but no data appears(DefaultBufferMaxRows is set to 100). In the 'Execution Results', validation completes, but nothing happens beyond that. There are no errors or messages in the error list. In the Control Flow, the dataflow control appears yellow, and stays that way.
I have noticed that when this package runs, a command window flashes up for a brief second.
How do I troubleshoot this? Why is there no data in the data viewer between the source and the data conversion transform?
Thanks for your help!

I am stuck on finding a solution to transpose source data from a system via a metadata look-up table into a destination table. I need a method to transpose/pivot the source data into columns (which are by various data-types). The datatypes for each column are listed in a metadata table.
Source Data Table:
Table Name: Source
SrcID AGE City Date
01 32 London 01-01-2013
02 35 Lagos 02-01-2013
03 36 NY 03-01-2013
Metadata Table:
Table Name:Metadata
MetaID Column_Name Column_type
11 AGE col_integer
22 City col_character
33 Date col_date
Destination table:
The source data to be loaded into the destination table(as shown below):
Table Name: Destination
SrcID MetaID col_int col_char col_date
01 11 32 - -

Hi,
I am having a Data flow task in For each loop which will gets 100 sourcetable names and 100 target table names...
am having a simpleData flow task which trasferes from OLEDBSource to OLEDBDestination.
I am repeating the Dataflow task which transfers from sourcetablename extracted from for loop to a destination table var.
The problem am gettting is for the first table it is able to transfer correcly because I did mapping for those tables at design time...but for the next coming sourcetable-desttable (which r having different no of cols,datatypes) its giving Validation failed...and...needs to refresh metadata....
is there any way to refresh the metadata of Data flow task (I set the property of OLEDBSource validate external meta to false then also same error is coming)
Thanks

Hello,I have a query that I need help with.there are two tables...Product- ProductId- Property1- Property2- Property3PropertyType- PropertyTypeId- PropertyTypeThere many columns in (Product) that reverence 1 lookup table (PropertyType)In the table Product, the columns Property1, Property2, Property3 all contain a numerical value that references PropertyType.PropertyTypeIdHow do I select a Product so I get all rows from Product and also the PropertyType that corresponds to the Product.Property1, Product.Property2, and Product.Property3ProductId | Property1 | Property2 | Property3 | PropertyType1 | PropertyType2 | PropertyType3 PropertyType(1) = PropertyType for Property1PropertyType(2) = PropertyType for Property2PropertyType(3) = PropertyType for Property3I hope this makes sence.Thanks in advance.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI've a dataflow task on For Each Loop container at control flow of SSIS package. This For Each Loop container reads the CSV files from the specified location one by one, and populates a variable with current file name. Note, the tables where I would like to push the data from each CSV file are also having the same names as CSV file names.On the dataflow task, I've Flat File component as a source, this component uses the above variable to read the data of a particular file.
Now, here my question comes, how can I move the data to destination, SQL table, using the same variable name?I've tried to setup the OLE DB destination component dynamically but it executes well only for first time. It does not change the mappings as per the columns of the second CSV file. There're around 50 CSV files, each has different set off columns in it. These files needs to be migrated to SQL tables using the optimum way.
Which is the best way to setup the Dataflow task for this requirement?Also, I cannot use Bulk insert task here as we would like to keep a log of corrupted rows.
I'm working with an existing package that uses the fuzzy lookup transform. The package is currently working; however, I need to add some columns to the lookup columns from the reference table that is being used.
It seems that I am hitting a memory threshold of some sort, as when I add 3 or 4 columns, the package works, but when I add 5 columns, the fuzzy lookup transform fails pre-execute:
Pre-Execute
Taking a snapshot of the reference table
Taking a snapshot of the reference table
Building Fuzzy Match Index
component "Fuzzy Lookup Existing Member" (8351) failed the pre-execute phase and returned error code 0x8007007A.
These errors occur regardless of what columns I am attempting to add to the lookup list.
I have tried setting the MaxMemoryUsage custom property of the transform to 0, and to explicit values that should be much more than enough to hold the fuzzy match index (the reference table is only about 3000 rows, and the entire table is stored in less than 2MB of disk space.
Any ideas on what else could be causing this?

I'm designing a database for my final year project at University, and have run into a bit of a dilemma with one of the tables. Basically, it's an equipment loan database where both students and lecturers need to be able to book and borrow equipment. To avoid having two separate bookings tables (i.e. StudentBookings and LecturerBookings) I've got students and lecturers combined into one table called 'Borrowers'. The trouble comes because the clients want the lecturer storing in the booking information table, which can get quite messy because lecturer information is stored in the same table as borrower information meaning that I basically need to relate both the Booking.BorrowerID and Booking.LecturerID to Borrowers.BorrowerID.
In theory, I think this could be solved by creating a View called Lecturers that pulls the required information for Lecturers out of the Borrowers table and then link Booking.LecturerID to the ID of the view. In practice, I've got a couple of queries:
1) Is it possible to perform a JOIN on a view in the way that I would need to here?
2) To keep things nice and clear, is it possible to 'rename' the BorrowerID to LecturerID whilst creating the View?
Sorry if some of this isn't too clear. Please ask any questions to clarify what I mean if you need to.
Cheers

Hi,
I'm inserting records into a Table1 with the following fields :
tabID int 4ClientID int 4..etc etc.
In the insertitem template, I want the user to enter a Clientcode into textbox1. Then I want that client code validated against a lookup table, ClientTable and if valid, get the ClientId value from that ClientTable, so that I can populate the ClientID field in Table1.
I've got a mental block and I cannot see how I can do that !
Any ideas most gratefully appreciated.

I have another lookup table question
so say i have an employee table, and a department table. all the department table will do is store the names of the different departments so how should this be set up using MSSQL
Employee
EmployeeId
FN
LN
DeptName (fk)
Department
DeptId (pk) unique
DeptName unique
*** Or could i do this to make the employee record more meaningful without needing a join. ***
Employee
EmployeeId
FN
LN
DeptName (fk)
Department
DeptId (pk) unique
DeptName unique
*** Or should i just do this and get rid of the Id Field***
Employee
EmployeeId
FN
LN
DeptName (fk)
Department
DeptName (pk) unique

i have very very basic knowledge of SQL like the ability to add, delete, update, select records and the ability to drop/create tables but i want to know how to integrate a lookup table into a field (very much like MS Access users can do with ease).
here is my example;
i have two tables - Club and Player
Club:
Club_Id
ClubName
Abbr
Player:
Player_Id
Name
Club_Id
the idea is that a single club can have several players. in the players table, i want the Club_Id field to act as the drop down whereas if a player changes club at any time, i can just refer to that player and change his Club_Id by scrolling down a list of values in SQL Server Management Studio 2005.
how can this be achieved by any chance, help would be very much appreciated.
Hello,
I have few columns at some level, and now I need to add a column from another database table based on the values from one of the existing columns.

Any clue ?

I imported an Excel file in the form of a table(11,000 rows) in SQL Server 2012 database called Sanbox, I am trying to link this table to MS-CRM leads table so that I can link all the street addresses from table in Sandbox DB to the respective tables in MS-CRM leads table (200,000 rows), my end goal is to link the owner names from MS-CRM table to Sandbox DB's table with the matching criteria of 'street address'
My simple query looks like this, but it returns 200,000 rows, but I only want 11,000 rows -
SELECT *
FROM Sandbox.dbo.Sheet1$ A
LEFT JOIN [IPlus_MSCRM].[dbo].[FilteredLead] B
ON A.[Street 1] = B.address1_line1
Say I want to lookup a value in another dataset, but there is a grouping that requires you to know what the values for each level is in order to get to the correct detail record. Can you still use the lookup function with more than one field to compare against? So for example
Department
\___SalesPerson
\___Measure
I want to be able to add a new row at the Measure level, but lookup each field from another dataset. In order to do that I will need the Department AND SalesPerson values to do the lookup, but I dont think the Lookup function will let us do that will.
Hi i have three tables
T1 is a table of data imported by DTS, it has staff numbers and location names
T2 is a table that contains system data about staff and has a column for the location id
T3 is a table for the location names and their ID's
i am trying to write the sql to update T2 with the new location IDs for staff that have moved location but am not getting what i need.
so far i have :
update
T2
set T2.LocationId =T3.LocationID
from T3
inner join T1
on T3.departmentname = T1.contact_location
the update runs but sets all rows to the same value. am now burried deep in the [I've stared at this too long and cant see the wood for the trees] stage :mad:

I'm using SQL Server 2000. I have an EXTERNAL_FUNDING table and an EXTERNAL_FUNDING_TYPE table. The DDL for the tables is listed below. Each EXTERNAL_FUNDING record has a type field, which is a foreign key to a record in the EXTERNAL_FUNDING_TYPE table. However, I would like for the type to be allowed to be null. When displaying the data, if the type is null, I'd like to show blank text. Here is the query I'm trying to use:
SELECT EXTERNAL_FUNDING.id, date_requested as [Request Date],source as [Source/Sponsor],EXTERNAL_FUNDING_TYPE.type AS [Type],amount as [Amount], granted as [Granted]
FROM EXTERNAL_FUNDING,EXTERNAL_FUNDING_TYPE
WHERE (project_id = @project_id) AND
(EXTERNAL_FUNDING.type = EXTERNAL_FUNDING_TYPE.id)
ORDER BY date_requested ,source,type
But this query does not return the records with NULL for the type field. Can someone explain to me how I can also return the rows with a NULL type? Thanks!
Table DDL:
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[EXTERNAL_FUNDING] (

What is the best way to setup relationships between one lookup tableand many other tables. The tables did not have any lookup tablerelationships which I am adding. One lookup table is used for same datain several different places.To use one lookup tables with several tables, I had to disable "CascadeUpdate" and only have "enforce relationships for updates and inserts"checked.Any pros/cons?Thanks in advance.P
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have added a new column to a table, but it is not showing up in the column mapping tab of the lookup editor.
It does show up in the preview.
Without deleting and recreating the component (with all the ensuing broken metadata fixes 'downstream' that this always entails), how can I get it to recognise the change?
In future I will do all LUs as a sql statement so at least I can control columns. This again defeats the purpose of the drag and drop environment..... If it were a harry potter character, it would be a dementor
Can anybody tell me when the index table is created? I have a Ole DB Command transformation that deletes rows from a table, and the pipeline continues on to a fuzzy lookup. The fuzzy lookup is returning matches to some of the rows which were delted in the aformentioned Ole DB Command. If the index table is created during pre-execute, this would make some sense to me since those rows which get deleted still exist before the pipeline reaches the Ole DB Command transformation which deletes those rows. If this is the case, is there a way to delay the index table creation? If this is not the case, has anybody else ran into anything like this...is there some solution? Thanks for any help.

col_name vl_source vl_dest
size 'Small' 'Y'
size 'Big' 'N'
height 'Tall' 'P'
... and so on, I believe you get the point
How would you extract the needed values? Can I use a select statement in a derived column expression? Any ideas? I'm not really fond of the idea to create n lookups, one for each column I have to translate, is there a slicker solution?
Hi,
I have a common requirement (when I'm processing data rows from an input file) to perform some data manipulation in script then look up a value from a reference table and perform some further data manipulation depending on whether a matching value was found in the lookup table or not.
For example, say I'm processing Customer data rows and the first "word" (/token) of the FullName column might be a title or the title could be missing and it might be a forename or initial instead. I want to check the first word of this FullName column to see if it matches any valid title values in a ReferenceTitles lookup table. If I find a match I want to set my Title column to the value from the ReferenceTitles lookup table, otherwise I want to set it to, say, an empty string. Then I want to process the rest of the FullName column tokens differently depending on whether or not a match was found.
It seems very messy to start coding a script transformation and then
have to use a lookup transformation combined with a script
transformation on the error output followed by a union and a sort
and finally a further script transformation (especially as I would like to be able to use variables from the first script in the later processing)...
So what I'm wondering is: Is there an easy/clean way to perform a database lookup (using cached values) from a script so that I can achieve all the above from within a single script component?
Thanks in advance,
Lawrie
All,
Just wondering if anyone is aware of a SQL server shareware utility that places a front end on a table to manage insert, update, and delete of rows on a lookup table.
We can certainly write this but before reinventing the wheel I figure I'd ask and see.
Many Thanks,
Isaac
