ForeignKey Constraint From A Lookup Table

Aug 5, 2007

Hi,

I'm trying to figure out how to setup a Constraint (Foreign Key?) from a lookup table.

For the following example, I want to constrain to constrain so that a Car.ParkingSpotNumber is unique for a given ParkingFacility.

Any thoughts?

Thanks!

Andy

Here's the scenario:
CAR table:
Id (PrimaryKey)
LicensePlateNumber
ParkingSpotNumber

PARKINGFACILITY__CAR__LOOKUP table:
Id (PrimaryKey)
CarId (Foreign Key to Car.Id)
ParkingFacilityId (Foreign Key to ParkingFacility)

PARKINGFACILITY table:
Id (PrimaryKey)

PARKINGLOT table:
Id (Foreign Key to ParkingFacility.Id) (PrimaryKey)
Address

PARKINGGARAGE table:
Id (Foreign Key to ParkingFacility.Id) (PrimaryKey)
Address


Here's the T-SQL code to make a SQLServer2005 database for this scenario:


SET ANSI_NULLS ON

GO

SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON

GO

IF NOT EXISTS (SELECT * FROM sys.objects WHERE object_id = OBJECT_ID(N'[dbo].[Car]') AND type in (N'U'))

BEGIN

CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Car](

Performance Expectations For Fuzzy Lookup Against 25mill Row Lookup Table

Oct 31, 2007

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?

ForeignKey Reference With Another Database

Apr 29, 2008



Hi All,

I have a table [Vendor] in first database SAMPLEDB. And i have another table [Contract] in another database TESTDB. I need a foreign key in the [Contract] table (which is in TESTDB database) is reference to the other table [Vendor] which is present in the SAMPLEDB.
When i try to creating them through SQL, i received the following error message :

Msg 1763, Level 16, State 0, Line 1
Cross-database foreign key references are not supported. Foreign key 'SAMPLEDB..VENDOR'.


Is that possible to refer foreign key in external database or not?
If possible, please give solution for this. If not possible, please suggest some alternate way.


Thanks in Advance

ForeignKey Using INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES As PrimaryKeyTable

Oct 12, 2006

Hi,

I have a "master" table that holds the names of data tables (one record in the "master" table for each "data" table).

Can I create a ForeignKey constraint that will prevent the "master" table records from being removed if the cooresponding "data" table exists? Is the way to do this to use INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES as the PrimaryKeyTable for the ForeignKey?

Thanks!

Overriding ForeignKey Constraints Under Certain Conditions To Perform CASCADE DELETE

Jun 5, 2008

Hi,
We have a DB with a heirarchy of tables each connected via Guids and controlled for Delete Operations by Foreign Key Constraints. However, under certain privileged conditions we would like CERTAIN users to be able to perform a Cascade Delete all the way down.
Thus by example we have tables A,B,C,D - Typically once a record is inserted into Table A then we can add multiple records in Table B referencing that new record in Table A...and so on through records in Table C referencing Table B...records in Table D referencing table C. Now when we try and delete that ONE Record in Table A we 'could' implement CASCADE DELETES which would delete all those records in Table B,C,D.
We decided that was too dangerous to implement as Whooosh....all records could be deleted by a non-privileged user deleteing that ONE records in Table A, so we changed the Cascade DELETE to NO ACTION. However, there are times (hah...particularly in Testing !) when we would like a privilegd user to be able to DO that task...i.e. perform a CASCADE delete.
Has anybody got any suggestions on how this would be best, easily and securely implemented.
I have had a brief look at INSTEAD OF Triggers but am not sure about the pitfalls of using this...
ANy help appreciated,
 Cheers,
Desmond.

Transpose Source Data From A System Via Metadata Lookup Table Into Destination Table

Apr 1, 2014

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 - -
01 22 - London -
01 33 - - 01-01-2013
02 11 35 - -
02 22 - Lagos -
02 33 - - 02-01-2013
03 11 36 - -

Cannot Truncate Table 'Database.dbo.Table' Because It Is Being Referenced By A FOREIGN KEY Constraint..

Aug 23, 2006

Here is my issue I am new to 2005 sql server, and am trying to take my old data which is exported to a txt file and import it to tables in sql. The older database is non relational, and I had made several exports for the way I want to build my tables. I built my packages fine and everything is working until I start building relationships. I remove my foreign key and the table with the primary key will get updated for the package again. I need to update the data daily into sql, and once in it will only be update from the package until the database is moved over.

It will run and update with a primary key until I add a foreign key to another database.

Here is my error when running the package when table 2 has a foreign key.

[Execute SQL Task] Error: Executing the query "TRUNCATE TABLE [consumer].[dbo].[Client] " failed with the following error: "Cannot truncate table 'consumer.dbo.Client' because it is being referenced by a FOREIGN KEY constraint.". Possible failure reasons: Problems with the query, "ResultSet" property not set correctly, parameters not set correctly, or connection not established correctly.

Fuzzy Lookup Error When Adding Additional Lookup Columns

Sep 26, 2007

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?

Using A View As A Lookup Table

Jan 29, 2004

Hi

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
Jon

Extract Value From A Lookup Table

Feb 23, 2006

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.

Now I would like calculate the rating in the results table in the rating column (where "?" in the above example)

Lookup Table Structure

Jun 26, 2007

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

Create A Lookup Table In SQL

Mar 23, 2008

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.

Dataflow With 2 Lookup Using The Same Table

Oct 26, 2006

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?

Lookup From One Table To Other Master Table

Apr 21, 2015

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

Reporting Services :: SSRS Lookup - Can Use More Than One Field When Doing Lookup

Sep 23, 2015

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.

Lookup Table Foreign Key Null

May 1, 2007

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] (
[id] [int] IDENTITY (1, 1) NOT NULL ,
[project_id] [int] NOT NULL ,
[date_requested] [datetime] NULL ,
[source] [nvarchar] (50) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NULL ,
[type] [int] NULL ,
[amount] [money] NULL ,
[granted] [bit] NULL ,
[date_granted] [datetime] NULL

Lookup Not Detecting New Column On Table

Aug 13, 2007

I 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

Fuzzy Lookup Index Table

Feb 26, 2008



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.

Lookup Table, Extracting Values

Sep 21, 2007

I need some help with the following...

My data source has some columns I have to 'translate' first and then insert into my destination table.

Example Source data:
key size height
1 'Small' 'Tall'
2 'Big' 'Short'
has to become
1 'Y' 'P'
2 'N' 'D'

I thought of creating a lookup table (I'm talking about the real table, not a lookup transformation table) that would have these columns: column name, value_source, value_dest
Example:
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?

Doing A Lookup On A Reference Table From Script?

Jun 28, 2006

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

Named Constraint Is Not Supported For This Type Of Constraint (not Null)

May 13, 2008

Hi, all.

I am trying to create table with following SQL script:





Code Snippet

create table Projects(
ID smallint identity (0, 1) constraint PK_Projects primary key,
Name nvarchar (255) constraint NN_Prj_Name not null,
Creator nvarchar (255),
CreateDate datetime
);

When I execute this script I get following error message:

Error source: SQL Server Compact ADO.NET Data Provider
Error message: Named Constraint is not supported for this type of constraint. [ Constraint Name = NN_Prj_Name ]

I looked in the SQL Server Books Online and saw following:

CREATE TABLE (SQL Server Compact)
...
< column_constraint > ::= [ CONSTRAINT constraint_name ] { [ NULL | NOT NULL ] | [ PRIMARY KEY | UNIQUE ] | REFERENCES ref_table [ ( ref_column ) ] [ ON DELETE { CASCADE | NO ACTION } ] [ ON UPDATE { CASCADE | NO ACTION } ]

As I understand according to documentation named constraints should be supported, however error message says opposite. I can rephrase SQL script by removing named constraint.





Code Snippet

create table Projects(
ID smallint identity (0, 1) constraint PK_Projects primary key,
Name nvarchar (255) not null,
Creator nvarchar (255),
CreateDate datetime
);
This script executes correctly, however I want named constraints and this does not satisfy me.
