Does anyone know if there is a way to look at a value in a variable and based on that value run different Data Flow Tasks?
For example, let's say I have an SSIS package that contains a variable named Client and 3 separate Data Flow Tasks. I would like to do this: if Client = 1 then run Data Flow 1 else if Client = 2 then run Data Flow 2 else run Data Flow 3.
Is this possible?
Thanks.

Hey folks, having a problem here...
I have 2 piece of code designed to do the same thing. My problem is, i'm not getting the same results.
Code 1 where the results are correct
Code:
select Count(*) as TotalCount, Sum(DistAmt) as TotalSum
from table1
inner join table2
on table2.id = table1.id
where MailTypeID = 3
AND MailEventID = 2
and table1.IsActive = 1
code 2 - Y is correct, but Z is not, and not only is it not correct, but it is returning a number which equals more then the total rows from the table.
Code:
select
Y = sum(case when mailtypeid = 3 and maileventid = 2 and IsActive = 1 then distamt else 0 end),
Z = count(case when mailtypeid = 3 and maileventid = 2 and IsActive = 1 then 1 else 0 end)
from table1
inner join table2
on table2.id = table1.id
I have no idea what is going on.
Thanks!

Hi,
Is there a way to use more criteria in a CASE statement other than CASE WHEN expression THEN value ELSE value END
I need to test if the count is greater than 0. If so, then perform the case statement, else return zeros. Currently there are entries where the values are blank. These blank values are causing errors in the application and unfortunately, I am not able to update these values.
So far I have the following, but I am getting an error stating "An aggregate may not appear in the WHERE clause unless it is in a subquery contained in a HAVING clause or select list, and the column being aggregated is an outer reference."
Thanks in advance!
Code:
IF @Qid = 4
SELECT @Exp as Status, COUNT(*) AS Total, @CourseID as CourseID,
(SELECT
question
FROM
tableQuestions
WHERE
qid = @Qid) AS Question,
IF COUNT(*)>0 THEN
1.0 * SUM(CASE WHEN A.Q1 > 1 THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) / COUNT(*) AS Positive,
1.0 * SUM(CASE WHEN A.Q1 = 0 THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) / COUNT(*) AS Neutral,
1.0 * SUM(CASE WHEN A.Q1 < 0 THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) / COUNT(*) AS Negative,
1.0 * SUM(CASE WHEN A.Q1 = 0 THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) / COUNT(*) AS NA
ELSE
0 AS Positive,
0 AS Neutral,
0 AS Negative,
0 AS NA
END IF
FROM
table1 A INNER JOIN table2 B ON A.SessionID = B.SessionID
WHERE
(B.CourseID = @CourseID) AND (A.SubmitDate >= @BeginDate) AND (A.SubmitDate <=@EndDate)
This works EXCEPT when I add the ELSE line.
How do I accomplish the ELSE?
Does the ELSE have to state "WHEN [BG_STATUS] <> 'Blocked' and [BG_STATUS] <> 'Closed', etc? Do I have to delineate for the ELSE statement everything that BG_STATUS is *not* equal to? Seems there ought to be a way but I can't find it.
SELECT BG_SEVERITY AS 'Severity',
SUM(CASE WHEN [BG_STATUS] = 'Blocked' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) as 'Blocked',
SUM(CASE WHEN [BG_STATUS] = 'Closed' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) as 'Closed',
SUM(CASE WHEN [BG_STATUS] = 'Customer Test' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) as 'Customer Test',
SUM(CASE WHEN [BG_STATUS] = 'Deferred' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) as 'Deferred',
[Code] ....
I am creating a stored procedure which receives the following 4 variables. However, VacancySectorID is the only madatory variable.
@VacancySectorID int = NULL, (mandatory)
@VacancyRegionID int = NULL, optional)
@VacancyTypeID int = NULL, (optional)
@VacancyKeywords nvarchar(64) = NULL, (optional)
My objective is to dynamically build the WHERE statement which in turn will return either one or more of the variables and the required data. The following code works for a single if else but it appears that you cannot have more than one if else statement.
Anyones input would be greatly appreciated.

ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[sp_Public_GetVacancyListingBySearchCriteria]

@VacancySectorID int = NULL,

Hi is it possible to have a case statement with 2 or more constraints ?
Like we have
CASE x
WHEN 1 THEN ..
WHEN 2 THEN ..
but what if i want a constraint like :
IF (x= 0 AND y=0)
{
then...
}
can this be done in a CASE statement ?
if not , can I use IF with SQL ?

Hi All,
I'am trying to program a nested CASE statements (if this is not possible, does anyone have any alternate suggestions ?) and I'm getting syntax errors.
The statement is:

I am wondering if there is a way that we could do a nesting case statement in an SQL Query?
This is what I have now... FicaWages = CASE WHEN (UPR00900.FICAMWGS_1 + UPR00900.FICAMWGS_2) >= '84900' AND UPR00400.SBJTSSEC = 1 THEN '0' WHEN UPR00400.SBJTSSEC = 0 THEN '0' ELSE (UPR30100.GRWGPRN - (SELECT SUM(UPR30300.UPRTRXAM) FROM UPR30300 WHERE UPR30300.EMPLOYID = UPR00100.EMPLOYID AND UPR30300.PAYROLCD LIKE '3%' AND AUCTRLCD = 'UPRCC00000007')) END
What I want:
FicaWages = CASE
WHEN
('Sql Statement') = 'GRM'
THEN
CASE
WHEN (UPR00900.FICAMWGS_1+UPR00900.FICAMWGS_2)
>= '84900' AND UPR00400.SBJTSSEC = 1 THEN '0'
WHEN UPR00400.SBJTSSEC = 0 THEN '0'
ELSE (UPR30100.GRWGPRN - ('Sql Statement'))
END
ELSE
CASE
WHEN (UPR00900.FICAMWGS_1+UPR00900.FICAMWGS_2)
>= '84900' AND UPR00400.SBJTSSEC = 1 THEN '0'
WHEN UPR00400.SBJTSSEC = 0 THEN '0'
ELSE (UPR30100.GRWGPRN - ('Sql Statement'))
END
END
I hope this is clear enough.
Is there a way of improving the SUM statements below? When I run the query without them it's very fast but with them it takes ages

Hi i am having some trouble with a nested case statement, what i want to do is set the value of a new column called Result depending on a series of case statements. Basically i want to check Test.Webstatus = 'Rd' and FinalResult = 'true' if this is true i want it to set the value in the Results field to ReportableResult + '~' + ReportableUnitDisplay then go through all the limits fields adding either the value of the field or 'blank' onto the end of the value in the Results field, depending on if the limits field has Null or a value in it. Producing a value in the Results field similiar to: 10~kg:10:5:2:1 or 10~kg:blank:5:blank:1 etc
select ClientRef, Sample.WebStatus as SampleStatus, Analysis, FinalResult, Test.WebStatus,
'Result' = Case
when Test.WebStatus = 'Rd' and FinalResult = 'true' then
Case
Case
when UpperCriticalLimit is null then ReportableResult + '~' + ReportableUnitDisplay + ':blank'
else ReportableResult + '~' + ReportableUnitDisplay + ':' + UpperCriticalLimit
end
Case
when UpperWarningLimit is null then ReportableResult + '~' + ReportableUnitDisplay + ':blank'
else ReportableResult + '~' + ReportableUnitDisplay + ':' + UpperWarningLimit
end
Case
when LowerWarningLimit is null then ReportableResult + '~' + ReportableUnitDisplay + ':blank'
else ReportableResult + '~' + ReportableUnitDisplay + ':' + UpperWarningLimit
end
Case
when LowerCriticalLimit is null then ReportableResult + '~' + ReportableUnitDisplay + ':blank'
else ReportableResult + '~' + ReportableUnitDisplay + ':' + LowerCriticalLimit
end
end
when FinalResult = 'false' then Null
else Test.WebStatus

inner join Test on Sample.SampleID = Test.SampleID

It will be part of the stored proc, but for now I couldn't even get it running in ssms. It will be two parameters/variables, one for order by column name and other for order by direction, i.e. desc or asc.I have tried following three ways, but none is working:
(1)
order by case when @Sort_by= '[A_ID]' AND @Sort_Dir ='Desc' then A_ID end desc
case when @Sort_by= '[A_ID]' AND @Sort_Dir ='Asc' then A_ID end asc
(2)
order by case when @Sort_by= '[A_ID]' AND @Sort_Dir ='Desc' then A_ID desc end
case when @Sort_by= '[A_ID]' AND @Sort_Dir ='Asc' then A_ID asc end
(3)
ORDER BY CASE @Sort_by when '[A_ID]' then [A_ID] end
Case @Sort_Dir when 'Desc' then desc end

Is it possible to use nested case statements in the SQL for your dataset when you are using Reporting Services? I keep getting an error saying "Unable to parse expression" and my report won't run.
Code SnippetCASE WHEN (CASE WHEN DateDiff(d , GetDate() , DATEADD(d , - 1 , DATEADD(m , 1 , DATEADD(m , 1 , DATEADD(d , - (1 * (DAY(TRANSACTION_DATE) - 1)) , TRANSACTION_DATE))))) < '0 THEN 'Overdue' WHEN DateDiff(d , GetDate(), DATEADD(m , FIELD1 / 30 - 1 , DATEADD(m , 1 , DATEADD(d , - (1 * (DAY(TRANSACTION_DATE) - 1)) , TRANSACTION_DATE)))) > 0 THEN 'Not Due' ELSE 'Due' END)= 'Not Due' AND FIELD2 > 0 THEN DateDiff(m , GetDate() , DATEADD(m , FIELD1 / 30 - 1 , DATEADD(m , 1 , DATEADD(d , - (1 * (DAY(TRANSACTION_DATE) - 1)) , TRANSACTION_DATE))) * 30) / 360 * FIELD2 * @PARAMETER1 ELSE NULL END
I know this is quite a complex statement, so at first I was worried that maybe I had brackets in the wrong places, but I've been through the code and made sure that every opening bracket has an equivalent closing bracket, and everything appears to be OK in that respect. So I'm thinking that maybe the structure of my nested case statements is incorrect? The inner case statement is necessary to calculate whether a transaction is due, overdue or not due. The outer case statement depends on the result of the inner case statement.
Basically, we only want the calculations following the "THEN" in the outer case statement to be executed if the result of the inner case statement is "not due" and Field2 is greater than zero. If either of those criteria aren't met, then it should go straight to the ELSE NULL END statement and stop.

[MailingAddress].[City]
[MailingAddress].[State]

I am using Visual Web Developer Express 2005 as a test environment. I have it connected to a SQL 2000 server. I would like to use a Select Case Statement with the name of a column from a SQL Query as the Case Trigger. Assuming the SQLDataSource is named tCOTSSoftware and the column I want to use is Type, it would look like the following in classic ASP:
Select Case tCOTSSoftware("Type")
Case 1
execute an SQL Update Command
Case 2
execute a different SQL Update Command
End Select
What would a comparable ASP.Net (Visual Basic) statement look like? How would I access the column name used in the SQLDataSource?
I am trying to gather counts for table imports made for files from friday - sunday and create a variable that will be the body of an email.

I have declared all variables appropriately but I will leave that section of the code out.

I have a table that keeps track of all changes that were performed in an application. There is a column called "old value" and column called "new value". There are some values in the application that don't require data therefore the "old value" or "new value" values can be empty. These columns are an nvarchar data type because the value can be text or numbers or dates. An example is "ReceivedDate". There is a report that is generated based on this table.
What is happening is the query in the report dataset is adding dates when it should be displaying empty. They query is using "CASE/WHEN/THEN". What I need is "When the column is "RecievedDate" and it is not null then convert it to a date". This is for formatting purposes.
This is an example of the table:
UpdateColumn
Old Value
New Value
ReceivedDate
7/8/2015 5:00:00 AM
ReceivedDate
7/8/2015 12:00:00 AM
7/9/2015 5:00:00 AM
ReceivedDate
7/9/2015 12:00:00 AM
So, the first time it was updated there was no value but it was replaced with July 8, 2015 and so on.This is what the report is displaying
This is the query:
CASE UpdateColumn
... WHEN 'ReceivedDate' THEN (replace(convert(varchar(11),CONVERT ( date, oldvalue ), 106), ' ', '-') )
...
I tried adding
CASE UpdateColumn
...
WHEN 'ReceivedDate' IS NOT NULL
THEN (replace(convert(varchar(11),CONVERT ( date, oldvalue ), 106), ' ', '-') )
...
But it did not like the "IS NOT NULL".
I would like to know how I can add the following sample code to my Source data on Data Flow on SSIS, or what other options there are. The main issue is time as we have talking about 100's of millions of rows
select Sample,
CASE
WHEN Sample IS NULL
THEN NULL
WHEN SUBSTRING(Sample, 1, 6) IS NULL
THEN ' '
ELSE RTRIM(SUBSTRING(Sample, 1, 6))
END AS [Sample_1_6]
from TestTable
what I have done at this stage is just to Create a SQL task with a Insert into
INSERT INTO [dbo].[TestTable1]
([Sample]
,[Sample_1_6])
select Sample,
CASE WHEN Sample IS NULL =THEN NULL
WHEN SUBSTRING(Sample, 1, 6) IS NULL THEN ' '
ELSE RTRIM(SUBSTRING(Sample, 1, 6))
END AS [Sample_1_6]
from TestTable
If there is a way adding this to a dataflow so I van use fast load that would really be the best solution. I know there are derived columns, but would this really be faster than the straight insert into in a SQL Task? If this is the way to go what is the code I would use in the derived column or any other option.
I have a question on date manipulation functions and CASE statements
My sql is passed the following parameter's and performs a select using a manipulation on these date param's to get a start and end date range depending on the conditions;-
monthColHeader = eg 'Feb 2015'
defaultStartDate and defaultEndDate
filterStartDate and filterEndDate.
These are my conditions;-
if defaultStart and End = filterStart and End use monthColHeader for the date range
if defaultStart and End != filetrStart and End AND the month/year of filterStart and filterEnd match then use the filterStart & End month/Year with the monthColHeader to get the date range
if defaultStart and End != filetrStart and End AND the month/year of filterStart and filterEnd DON't match use filterStart Day and monthColHeader for our start date and monthColHeader for our end date.
When I say use monthColHeader I mean like this;-
(r.dbAddDate >= (CAST('@Request.monthColHeader ~' AS DATETIME)) AND r.dbAddDate < DATEADD(mm,1,'@Request.monthColHeader ~'))
This sql works for converting say 'Feb 2015' to '2015-02-01' & '2015-02-28'....
I am using SQL Server 2005 and fairly new at using SQL Server. I am having problems using a Case statements in the select list while have a group by line. The SQL will parse successfully but when I try to execute the statement I get the following error twice :
Column 'dbo.REDEMPTIONHISTORY.QUANTITY' is invalid in the select list because it is not contained in either an aggregate function or the GROUP BY clause.
Below is the my sql statement:
SELECT dbo.DateOnly(TH.TransactionDate) AS RptDate, RH.Item,
ItemRef =
Case
when RH.Quantity < 0 then Sum(RH.Quantity)
when RH.Quantity >= 0 then Sum(0)
end
FROM dbo.RHISTORY AS RH INNER JOIN
dbo.TRANSHISTORY AS TH ON RH.TRANSACTIONID = TH.TransactionID
WHERE (dbo.DateOnly(TH.TransactionDate) BETWEEN '10-1-2007' AND '10-5-2007')
AND (RH.TransactionCode IN (13, 14, 15, 16))
Group by dbo.DateOnly(TH.TransactionDate), RH.Item
The TransHistory table contains, primary key transactionid, TransactionDate and the RHistory contains all the details about the transaction, the RHistory table is joined to the TransHistory table by foreign key TransactionID. I am trying to get totals for same item on the same day.
Any help will be greatly appreciated. I am also having trouble using If..Then statements in a select list and can not fin the correct syntax to use for that.
Hello. I'm trying to reduce some code in my stored procedure and I'm running into lots of errors. I'm somewhat of a novice with SQL and stored procedures so any help would be beneficial.
I have a SP that gets a page of user data and is also called when sorting by one of the columns (this data is placed in a repeater, btw). I quickly learned that I wasn't able to pass in string parameters the way I had hoped in order to handle the ORDER BY and direction (ASC/DESC) so I'm trying to work around this.
So far I've tried the following with many errors.WITH Users AS (
SELECT ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY CASE WHEN @OrderBy='FirstName' AND @Direction='DESC' THEN (FirstName + ' DESC')
WHEN @OrderBy='FirstName' THEN FirstName
WHEN @OrderBy='LastName' AND @Direction='DESC' THEN (LastName + ' DESC')
WHEN @OrderBy='LastName' THEN LastName
END
) AS Row,
UserID, FirstName, LastName, EmailAddress, [Role], Active, LastLogin, DateModified, ModifiedBy, ModifiedByName
FROM
vRF_Users
)
SELECT UserID, FirstName, LastName, EmailAddress, [Role], Active, LastLogin, DateModified, ModifiedBy, ModifiedByName
FROM Users
WHERE Row BETWEEN @StartRowIndex AND @EndRowIndex
I've tried a combination of similar things with parenthesises, without, doing "THEN FirstName DESC" without concatenating anything, etc.
I also tried: DECLARE @OrderByDirection varchar(32)
DECLARE @DESC varchar(4)
SET @DESC = ' DESC'
IF @Direction = 'DESC'
BEGIN
SET @OrderByDirection = (@OrderBy + @DESC)
END
And then writing my case statemet like this:ORDER BY CASE WHEN @Direction='DESC' THEN @OrderByDirection
ELSE @OrderBy
ENDObviously this didn't work either. Is there any way to gracefully accomplish this or do I just have to use a bunch of if/else statements and lots of redundant code to evaluate all my @OrderBy and @Direction parameters???
Thanks in advance,
Jen
