Insert Data Into A Destination Column Which Doesnt Have An Input Column

Feb 27, 2008

Hi, I was wondering how I can complete a column (which doesnt have an input one) with data.
For example:


I have a sql query which bring data of 3 columns

ID | FISRT NAME | LAST NAME
1 MIKE MORGAN
2 SARA JOHANES


So, I will insert that data in a FLAT FILE CONNECTION MANAGER, which I configured with 3 columns and I did the corresponding mapping in the FLAT FILE DESTINTATION.


Now, If I add one more column in the FLAT FILE CONNECTION MANAGER, I will not have it mapped to a input one, obviously. So, what I need is to add one more column to the flat file destination and complete it with zeros values in it.


Probably I can solve this part by introducing a DERIVED COLUMN and there I can configure the zeros that I want to add to the column. But I'm not sure if I can do that without having a input column.
So, the question will be, how can I add one column to a flat file which doesnt have a input and introduce any value that I want to it?
Hope I was clear
Thanks for your help.

Map One Generic Input Column To Multiple Destination Column

Aug 7, 2007

I have a stored proc I am updating in an OLEDB Command from the results of a Transform Script Component. The Stored Proc has over 65 input parameters, most of them have a NULL passed in. I dont want to create output columns in the Transform Script Component for all of them to map them from the "Available Input Columns" to "Available Destination Columns".

I want to create 3 or 4 generic Output columns for their data type - say IntegerOutput (datatype Int), DateTimeOut (datatype datetime) and so on. The I want to map these generic columns in the OLEDB Command as Available Input Columns" to multiple "Available Destination Columns" - wherever the datatype matches the input column.

But the OLEDB Command Column Mappings let me map One to One only. This will create a huge and unnecessary workload for me to develop and maintain - when I tell you I have 3 such stored procedures, all of whose interfaces are exactly same and for which I can create similar Output columns in the Transform Script Component.

So how do I go about doing this the smart way?

thanks in advance!

Bulk Insert Task Failing On Data Type Conversion For A Destination Column Of Type Bit

Jul 6, 2006

I am trying to use the Bulk Insert Task to load from a csv file. My final column is a bit that is nullable. My file is an ID column that is int, a date column that is mm/dd/yyy, then 20 columns that are real, and a final column that is bit. I've tried various combinations of codepage and datafiletype on my task component. When I have RAW with Char, I get the error included below. If I change to RAW/Native or codepage 1252, I don't have an issue with the bit; however, errors start generating on the ID and date columns.

I have tried various data type settings on my flat file connection, too. I have tried DT_BOOL and the integer datatypes. Nothing seems to work.

I hope someone can help me work through this.

Thanks in advance,

SK

SQL 2012 :: Insert ID Column Value Into Table Depending Upon Input Filename

May 19, 2015

I am loading files with same format from two different locations in to one database. First, my SSIS connects to location 1.

Lets Say
Location1 : C:LoadFilesImport
Location2 : D:LoadFilesImport

Location one has three different set files starting with

First Set: AP_1, AP_2,AP_3,
Second Set: VD_1, VD_2, VD_3,
Third Set: BK_1,BK_2,BK_3,

This SSIS set to run every 3 hours, if it finds files of any set load them. While loading it has to insert into a derivedcolumn called CustID. If the file name Starts with AP_ , custiD values should be as 101

AP_1 goes to Table1
AP_2 goes to Table2
AP_3 goes to Table3

If the file name Starts with VD_ , custiD values should be as 201
If the file name Starts with BK_ , custiD values should be as 301

after processing all these files in first location, the SSIS looks for files in second location and does the same?

--How to achieve CustID depending upon file name ?

SSIS Tries To Insert NULL Value Into A Destination Column Ignored In The Mapping.

Jan 12, 2008

Hello everyone,

I am having a little problem with a simple package and I do not know if this is a known issue or that I am missing something.

I have a data flow task, a simple one, with an oledb source pulling data, using a select statement, from a sql server 2005 instance, and an ole db destination pointing to a table in a sql server 2000 instance. Both intances are standard edition. The table in the destination has a column which allow null values and has also a default constraint (getdate()), and this column is not present in the source. When I map the columns in the destination, I leave this column as "ignore", not being mapped to any column from the source. The problem is that when I execute the task, SSIS is trying to insert NULL value into this column, so the package fail with the error "can not insert NULL value into column myColumn". I wonder why is it trying to insert NULL value if the column is not mapped to any column from the source.

Is this a known issue or I am nissing something in the settings?

If the destination table has rowversion or identity columns, there is no problem ar all. I ignore those columns in the mapping and SQL Server feeds them as expected.

Thanks in advance,
Alejandro Mesa

Derived Column Usage When Column Does Not Exist In Source (but Exists In Destination)

Sep 11, 2007





Posted - 09/10/2007 : 15:53:26



Hey all - got a problem that seems like it would be simple (and probably is : )

I'm importing a csv file into a SQL 2005 table and would like to add 2 columns that exist in the table but not in the csv file. I need these 2 columns to contain the current month and year (columns are named CM and CY respectively). How do I go about adding this data to each row during the transformation? A derived column task? Script task? None of these seem to be able to do this for me.

Here's a portion of the transformation script I was using to accomplish this when we were using SQL 2000 DTS jobs:


'**********************************************************************
' Visual Basic Transformation Script
'************************************************************************

' Copy each source column to the destination column
Function Main()
DTSDestination("CM") = Month(Now)
DTSDestination("CY") = Year(Now)
DTSDestination("Comments") = DTSSource("Col031")
DTSDestination("Manufacturer") = DTSSource("Col030")
DTSDestination("Model") = DTSSource("Col029")
DTSDestination("Last Check-in Date") = DTSSource("Col028")
Main = DTSTransformStat_OK
End Function
***********************************************************
Hopefully this question isnt answered somewhere else, but I did a quick search and came up with nothing. I've actually tried to utilize the script component and the "Row" object, but the only properties I'm given with that are the ones from the source data.

thanks in advance!

Using Name From File As Data Column In Destination

Sep 18, 2007



I have been searching for the answer to something I thought would be easy to find. But, no luck.

I need to load a csv file into a SQL Server table. The rub is that I need to also parse the filename for a couple of pieces of data also.
Example filename: c:importCustomerX_LocationY_1234.csv

For each record in the csv file I will call a stored procedure the has a parameter for each column in the file plus a parameter for the customer name and a colummn for the location name.

I assume that I will need to use a Script Component to parse the filename fro the information. What is not clear is how I get the filename from the csv connection object and how to get to result of the script component to the inputs of the OLE DB command component that I am using to call the stored procedure.

I have succeeded in using the Derived Column component to put constant values in for the customer and location. But, I cannot figure out how to get to the next step of deriving those two values from the input filename.

Thank you n advance for any assistance,
Jim

How To Append Data To A Destination Flat File Without Appending The Column Names Again

Mar 13, 2008

Hello guys,

here is my issue.


I created a ssis package which exports the data from oledb source to flat file (csv format). For this i have OLEDB source and Flat File as destination. I generate the file and filename dynamically with the column names in the first row. So if the dynamically generated file name already exists , then i want to append the data in the same existing file. But I dont want to append the column names again. I just want to append the rows to the existing rows.

so lets say first time i generate a file called File1_3132008.csv.

Col1, Col2
1,2
3,4


After some days if my ssis package generates the same file name i.e. File1_3132008.csv, this time i just want to append the rows to the existing file. So the file should look like this-
Col1, Col21,23,45,67,8



But instead my file looks like this if i set Overwrite propery to false

Col1,Col2
1,2
3,4
Col1,Col2
5,6
7,8

Can anyone help me to get the file as shown in the highlighed



Any help would be appreciated .

Thanks

Excel Destination Data Flow Component Shows No Sheet Name Or Output Column Names For Mappings

Mar 8, 2008



I have a data flow that consists of

OLE DB source which calls a stored proc that returns a result set

data conversion

Excel destination
I am in design mode in Business Intelligence studio. My excel destination (with an Excel Connection) shows no sheet name though I have an execute SQL task before the data flow to create the excel table called SHEET1. Needless to say, there are no output columns visible to do any mappings. I did go to the ExcelConnection to set the OpenRowset Property to SHEET1 but it seems to have no effect.

I can do the export in SQL Server Management studio and that works fine, but it is basic and does not meet my requirements. I have to customize the package to allow dynamic Excel filenames based on account names and have to split my result set into multiple excel sheets because excel 2003 has a max of 65536 rows per sheet. Also when I use the export wizard, I have the source as a table and eventually the source has to be a stored proc with input parms.

What am I missing or doing wrong? Thanks in advance

Insert Into Where Data Doesnt Exist

Oct 12, 2007



Hi,

I'm having a few problems. It's probably a simple thing but I can't figure it out.

I need to add data to a table but only if it isn't already in the table.

This is my query so far...


sqlcmd.CommandText = "Insert into caseDetails (c#,fe,cl) Values(@a,@b,@c)"

I assumed that if I added


WHERE not exists (case# = @a)

It would work and insert when the c# doesn't equal @a but all I get are errors.

Can anyone help?

Thanks,

Steve

BDP_EFFORT_BREAKDOWN_PCT is a numeric column with a size 5 (4,3)
When I do the updatedirectly from QA, it works fine.
I was googling it and read a KB article saying it's a problem with Service Pack of SQL Server 2000. If it is, then the query should not work even from QA....isn't it? 
Anyone had this problem before? Please help.

I have 2 tables in a database. Table 1 is Parts and Table 2 is MiniParts. I need a script that adds a new column in the MiniParts table. and then populate the new column (NewMinipartsCL) based on Values that exist in the PartsNum column in the Parts Table, and MiniPartsCL column in the MiniParts columns.

The new column is NewMiniPartsCL. The table above shows the values that the new column (NewMiniPartsCL) should contain.

For Example
Anytime you have "1" in the PartsNum column of the Parts Table and the MiniPartsCL column of the MiniParts Table has a "K" , the NewMiniPartsCL column in the MiniParts Table should be populated with "DK" ( as shown in the table above).

Anytime you have "1" in the PartsNum column of the Parts Table and the MiniPartsCL column of the MiniParts Table has a "K" , the NewMiniPartsCL column in the MiniParts Table should be populated with "K" ( as shown in the table above). etc..

Getting The Value Of A Column From Input

I am trying to get the value of a column in the Input0_ProcessInputRow function and I have the column name.



There has to be an object in the pipeline that will allow me to do this right?



Something like "ComponentMetaData.InputCollection(0).InputColumnCollection([COLUMN NAME])"



Can someone recommend how I would do this. I have tried a few things, but can't seem to get to the Value or ToString of the column I want in this row.

i cant get this quite right.

i have a table and i need to insert one column with data from another table. it goes something like this (although i know this is wrong, just here for a visual explaination) :


Code:


INSERT INTO List
(list_date, email_address, list_status, list_email)
values
(
GetDate()
, 'name@rice.edu'
, 0
, SELECT emailAddress FROM Users WHERE id = '72'

table. i tried messing around with inner joins but, well,
here i am...

SQL Server 2008 :: Redirect Insert Data Into Another Column

Feb 10, 2015

I was wondering if there was a way to redirect an insert to another column...

Example:
Original Insert Statement:
INSERT INTO [table] ([columnA], [columnB])
SELECT '2015-01-01 00:00:00', 99.99

We have changed [columnB] from a decimal(19,9) to a computed column. So instead, we added another column [ColumnC] to take [ColumnB]'s insert data. I thought we could've used a trigger instead of insert, but that fails with the message "cannot be modified because it is either a computed column or is the result of a UNION operator".

This is the trigger I was using:
CREATE TRIGGER [Trigger] ON [table]
INSTEAD OF INSERT
AS
INSERT INTO [table] ([columnA], [columnC])
SELECT [dataA], [dataB]
FROM Inserted

OLe DB Command And Using The Value Of An Input Column More Than Once

Feb 23, 2006

Hi there,

I have an OLE DB Command which updates a table. However, the command needs to use the value of an input column more than once.

For example I want to update TableA only if either ColumnA or ColumnB have actually changed: -
update tableA
set columnA = ?,
column B = ?
where columnC = ?
AND (columnA != ? OR columnB != ?)

I can't map the Input column to more than one parameter so I've been forced to create a copy of columnA and ColumnB as input columns so I can map to the extra paramters that the Command shape expects.

I also attempted to modify the command syntax so it set up variables for the 3 values required and then set the values to parameters - but I get a very unhelpful syntax error message: -
declare @ValueA varchar(50),
@ValueB varchar(50),
@ValueC varchar(50)
select @ValueA = ?,
@ValueB = ?,
@ValueC = ?,
update tableA
set columnA = @ValueA ,
column B = @ValueB
where columnC = @ValueC
AND (columnA != @ValueA OR columnB != @ValueB)



Any suggestions?

Bulk Insert Fails. Column Is Too Long In The Data File

Jun 27, 2006

Hi,

for testing purposes I'm inserting a flat file into a sql-server table using BULK INSERT unsig the following code:

BULK INSERT rsk_staging
FROM 'c: empulk
sk.txt'
  WITH (
    FIELDTERMINATOR = '',
    ROWTERMINATOR = '
',
    CODEPAGE = 'RAW',
    DATAFILETYPE  = 'char',
    BATCHSIZE = 100000,
    ROWS_PER_BATCH = 1925604,
    TABLOCK
  )

I have two versions of "rsk.txt" one with 1.9mill rows and one with the first 2000 rows only. The files have one column only with 115 characters that I'll split in to several columns later using SUBSTRING. The one with 2000 rows fires in to the database with no problems whatsoever using this exact code, the other one throws the following error:

Server: Msg 4866, Level 17, State 66, Line 1
Bulk Insert fails. Column is too long in the data file for row 1, column 1. Make sure the field terminator and row terminator are specified correctly.

How can I resolve this problem?

EDIT: I tried several different row- and fieldterminators but this exact one works for the small data-file so I assume it should also work for the large one...the large one is however copyed directly using binary ftp from a unix-filesystem and the small one is manually copied into a new txt-file using UltraEdit.

T-SQL (SS2K8) :: Use Previous Month Data In Column As Following Months Data Different Column

Aug 20, 2014

I have a table with Million plus records. Due to Running Totals article, I have been able to calculate the Trial_Balance for all months.

Now I am trying to provide a Beginning Balance for all months and the Logic is the Beginning Balance of July would be the Trial_Balance of June. I need to be able to do this for multiple account types. So the two datasets that need to be included in logic is actindx and Calendar_Month.

For actindx of 2 and Calendar_Month of 2014-01-01The Trial_Balance_Debit is 19585.46 This would make the Beginning_Balance of actindx 2 and Calendar_Month of 2014-02-01 19585.46

I am trying to do some type of self join, but not sure how to include each actindx number differently.

Table creation and data insert is below.

SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO

SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO

SET ANSI_PADDING ON
GO

CREATE TABLE [dbo].[TrialBalance](
[Trial_Balance_ID] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,

[Code] ....
