Need to know how I can get the dynamic filename created in the FlatFile destination for insert into a package audit table?
Scenario: Have created a package that successfully outputs Dynamiclly named flat files { Format: C:Test’Comms_File_’ + ‘User::FileNumber’+’_’+Date +’.txt’
E.g.: Comms_File_1_20150724.txt, Comms_File_2_20150724.txt etc} using Foreach Loop Container :
* Enumerator Set to: “Foreach ADO Enumerator” with the ADO object source variable selected to identify how many total loop iterations there are i.e. Let’s say 4 thus 4 files to be created
*Variable Mappings : added the User::FileNumber – indicates which file number current loop iteration is i.e. 1,2,3,4
For the DataFlow task have a OLDBSource and a FlatFile Destination where Flat File ConnectionString is set up as:
@[User::Output_Path] + "Comms_File"+ @[User:: FileNumber] +"_" + replace((DT_WSTR, 10) (DT_DBDATE) GETDATE(),"-","")+ ".txt"
All this successfully creates these 4 files:
Comms_File_1_20150724.txt, Comms_File_2_20150724.txt, Comms_File_3_20150724.txt, Comms_File_4_20150724.txt
Now the QUESTION is how do I get these filenames as I need to insert them into a DB Audittable. The audit table looks like this:
CREATE TABLE dbo.MMMAudit
(
AuditID INT IDENTITY(1, 1) NOT NULL,
PackageName VARCHAR(100) NULL,
FileName VARCHAR(100) NULL,
LoadTime DATETIME NULL,
NumberofRecords INT NULL
)
To save the Filename & how many records in each file in our Audit Table, am using an Execute SQL Task and configuring it as this:
Execute SQL Task
Parameter mapping - Mapped the User Variable (RecordsInserted) and System Variable( PackageName) to Insert statement as shown below
SQLStatement: INSERT INTO [dbo].[MMMAudit] (
PackageName,NumerofRecords,LoadTime)
(?,?.GETDATE)
Again this all works terrific & populates the dbo.MMMAudit table as shown below BUT I also need to insert the respsctive file name – How do I do that?
AuditID PackageName FileName NumberOfRecords
1 MMM NULL 12
2 MMM NULL 23
3 MMM NULL 14
4 MMM NULL 1

I have a SSIS job which takes a SQL Server view as its source and outputs a flat file. The file is quite large, about 20000 rows of 30 columns and up to 400 characters per row. It is configured with CRLF at the end of each line, tabs between columns, and no header row. Most rows are output with no problems, but occasionally a line will include a line break (CRLF) in the middle. The problem appears random, but the rows with spurious CRLFs appear in clusters, with each row in the cluster having a line break after the same column. To illustrate, it looks something like this:
col1 col2 ... col 30
col1 col2 ... col 30
col1 col2 ... col 24 CRLF
col25 col 26 ... col 30
col1 col2 ... col 24 CRLF
col25 col 26 ... col 30
col1 col2 ... col 30
col1 col2 ... col 30
So although there is some pattern, where a group of lines will include a break in the same place, I've not been able to identify the pattern and relate it back to the data items.
What could possibly cause CRLFs to spontaneously appear midway through the row?

I have a Problem with my destinations. I have a split condition with two ways the flow can use.
In this case: all and Date.
All and Date can be set by using a variable. Its working good.
When a user fills the variable with a date value (cast to string) the conditional split executes the correct flow with all the needed rows... The same time the all flow will be executed with 0 rows. In the end the destionation file for the all values will be overwritten with nothing. The same on the other hand when a user fills the variable with the all value, the date file is empty. What can i do to make sure that the files are not empty?

I am facing one process related issue.
I have one task in which i have to collect lots of .txt file having ## delimiter my requirement is to convert the delimiter from ## to comma and save the new file with .dat extension in different folder.
I have done all required process and run the application which should flow like collect source .txt file do Script component processing and create new .dat file with processed data in Data Flow task, but in my Task the Source and Destination start on same time and process start after words which cause empty file or some time a.txt file data stored in b.dat file where as a.dat file is completely empty.
The process should flow in sequence but behavior is totally against the process, i am using Foreach Loop Container for pick up each file.

Import.csv file looks like,
TABLE_NAME DESC CODE
tab1 table1 A
tab1 table1 B
tab1 table1 C
tab2 table2 D
tab2 table2 E
tab2 table2 G...
First column values are table names which are already exists in target database. Next two columns[Desc],[Code] data gets populate from CSV file to table.
In this scenario, how to load tab1 data into the same table in destination and so on.
Which way will be more standard to accomplish this task? If its a script task using C#, looking for clear script to identify a value changes in the first column.

I am working to archive some old data from a data warehouse using SQL server and SSIS. The data will be read and denormalized, then shipped out to a delimited text file.
The rowcount of the incoming data is significant, call it 10M+ rows per unit of work (one text file).
There are development advantages of using a stored proc for the data source - mainly ease of changing the denormalization logic as required. Wondering if there are performance advantages of an embeded query for the data source instead?
It was mentioned by one developer that when using a stored procedure, the output stream from the proc and subsequent SSIS steps cannot start until the full procedure processing is complete; i.e. the proc churns out its' result set in one big chunk.
He hinted that an embedded query does not have this same effect, but I am not sure that is accurate.

I have a flat file which have some record data ex.
id name team
1 "A"my" "Bl"ue"s"
2 "Bob" "Reds"
3 "Chuck" "Blues"
4 "Dick" "Blues"
in above example first record contain invalid data so complete flat file will not import due to one invalid row or record in flat file. so is there any way to check invalid row from flat file and ignore it(write log about invalid record) and process importing flat file.

I have a flat with few columns
FirstName, lastName, Address
f1,l1,a1
f2,l2,a2
I build my SSIS package based on the above file.But now i receive files with different columns order let say
lastName,FirstNamr,Address
l1,f1,a1
L2,f2,a2
or
Address,FirstName,LastName
a1,f1,l1
a2,f2,l2
every time i receive multiple files in different order and i have to remap all my mappings. These are just a few columns and i have like 20 columns and the order can potentially change any time. so every time i have build new packages remap them etc.
through normal c# code it pretty easy. I tried to add script here but the script also needs a source and mapping so there is also a mapping issue. Is there a better way to do this.

I have requirement like to develop dynamic package for inserting data from flat file to table.
Find below points for more clarification :--
1) if I changed the flat file values and name in source variable AND the table name should be also changed based on variable value .
2) it should dynamically mapped with column values with source file as we have to insert data in target table.
See below diagram for more clarification.

"Could not retrieve the table information for the connection manager 'Excel Connection Manager'.
Failed to connect to the source using the connection manager 'Excel Connection Manager'"

Hi
I am trying to use a conditional split task so that I can check for specific fields. If the value doesn't exist I am piping the records to a derived field task, where I add an error. I then try to send these records to a flat file destination so that I can keep track of them. However, when I execute the SSIS data flow task I get the following error
[Log Invalid Records [5496]] Warning: The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.
This file isn't being used by any other process as far as I can tell, and the only process using it is the SSIS task trying to write to it.
If anyone has any ideas, then I would really really appreciate it
Thanks
Darrell

Hi,
Here is my problem :
I work on a SSIS package with SQL SERVER 2005
I need to extract data from a table and put these data in csv files
But... the flat files name should be dynamic and assigned by a variable ...
Here's an example of my table :
Column header :
Id, Name, Number
1 TOM 22
2 TOTO 44
3 SAM 44
4 RADIO 55
I expect to have 3 csv files :
USER_22.csv
USER_44.csv
USER_55.csv
for example : USER_44.csv contains :
2;TOTO;44
3;SAM;44
if there's 50 different number, i expect 50 files
can i do that in a dataflow ?
thanks for answering

[Flat File Destination [46500]] Error: Data conversion failed. The data conversion for column "Column 0" returned status value 4 and status text "Text was truncated or one or more characters had no match in the target code page." What does this error mean exactly?
I am taking columns from a flat file source. Then I am adding some new columns then rewriting the file to a ragged file format with fixed column values. I've taken the Destination component off and it works fine. So I know it could be the destination component but what could it be? Any ideas?

I have a ssis package where I need to have excel destination. In the Excel file, I need to have few rows with some text and then populate data below the text. One the text is like this:
Data as of: 08/25/2015
if the report ran today, then Data as of will have Yesterday. So, if the user opens that excel file after a week, then user should see same Data as of: 08/25/2015. not today()-day(1).
I was planing to handle on excel side with today()-day(1). but it only works the day it was run. Then the excel file is open after few days later, then it might as Data as of: 08/30/2015 which is not true. It should still stay Data as of:
08/25/2015 on what ever date the excel file is open. The SSIS package runs only once.
How do I handle this so that whenever user open the file, they will see Data as of: 08/25/2015. This is not a column in excel. It is like a description of data in excel.

Hi,
I have a simple enough task to complete that I cant seem to find the answer to.
The task is this
Select table x from the database and write it to a flat file complete with that tables column headings.
Now Ive managed to set up an ole db datasource and selected the table and Ive also linked it to the flat file output. So now I can generate a flat file from the database. However no column headings appear in the flat file.
I cant seem to find anywhere (like a checkbox) that will also output the column headings to the flat file.
Now I can add in Headings manually in the properties of the Flat File Destination object but the columns that appear in the flat file dont appear to be in the order that I requested them in the SQL.
So the question is how do I automatically have the column headings appear for flat file output (ideally without me having to manually add them in).
If it cant be done and I have to use a vb.net script instead then would anyone have an example script of how to do it?
Thanks in advance for anyone who manages to answer this.
Matt.

I have a table is SQL server database A that is my source. I have another database B which is accessed via webservice call.(its a CRM server basically). My intention is to transfer data from A to B while B is accessible only via web service. I need to update existing one and create the missing one.
Currently I am using script component, and on every insertion of a row, i call the webservice to check if the record exist or not. If it exist I update it else create it using webservice call itself.
All this happen in Input0_ProcessInputRow(Input0Buffer Row) function.
Now this method is making 2n webserive call which is making the performance very slow.
I want to optimize the approach. Is there a way where I can retrieve whole set of rows in source table in preexecute(), filter it and store it in a List. This way, i just need to check the list a perform update ro create accordingly preventing my webservice call.
How to optimize this or even some better approach?
Its actually a CRM server and I am trying to update and create contacts in CRM sync with a database.

I have requirement to update/insert the DPID based on the address which are passed as an input values.There are more than one address at the same time and I configured to get the address from the query which are correct and output of the address values will be stored as system object variable.I am then passing the system object variable to for each loop container and I have configured the collection and variable mappings as a variable for each input value.
when I pass the value manually to the web service task it works correctly.When I pass it as a variable to web service task it doesn't return any value.I have a data flow task which converts the ouput from web service task using the xml source converts it to oledb destination.I don't see any rows being written to the target table.

I want the error file to be created ONLY if there is any error while dumping the data into destination DB. But , the issue is, the error flat file is being created inspite of No error while dumping the data from Source to Destination.

Is there a recommended file format (csv, xml, txt) when choosing a file destination for SSIS? Does a file format impact the performance in terms of loading? Let's say i have chosen to use a .csv as my file destination (this has 15million rows and 50 columns with 2 bigint and the rest binary(32)) and later on, i would need to reload them back to table using SSIS. Is using csv faster than e.g. xml when reloading? Does it have performance impact at all?

Hi,
I am testing SSIS and have created a Flat File Destination. I defined the Flat File Connection as New for the first time and it worked fine. Now, I would like to go back and modify the Flat File Connection in the Flat File Destination Editor, but it allows only to create a New connection rather allowing me to edit the existing one. For testing, I can go back and create a new connection, but if my connection had 50-100 columns then it would be an issue to re-create it from scratch.
Did someone else faced this issue?
Thanks,
AQ
