tell me the difference between Audit transformation and rowcount transformation.
Because audit and rowcount transformation will provide the environment variables.
Only difference i am finding is rowcount returns the count of rows its updating .
Apart from these is there any other difference?
Tell me the scenario where i need to use the audit transformation.
I am working on a SSIS Package and I have to do a data transformation but this one is a but tricky. For example
7/6/2015 is my date and when I apply
SUBSTRING(ColumnName,5,4) + "-" + SUBSTRING(ColumnName,3,1) + "-" + SUBSTRING(ColumnName, 1,1)
I get 2015-6-7 which is good
But then when the date is like 10/12/2015 I would have to modify my code
My question is, Is their anything I can add to the code to make the single digits have a zero before them so I can use the same code throughout. My updated code would then be
SUBSTRING(ColumnName,7,4) + "-" + SUBSTRING(ColumnName,4,2) + "-" + SUBSTRING(ColumnName, 2,1)
i want to use lookup transformation using Excel as a source.i am having two excel files .
file1 one of the column contains 'Andhrapradesh'
file2 one of the column contains 'ap'

Error. The Data types "DT_WSTR" and "DT_I4" are incompatible for binary operator "+".
The operand types could not be implicitly cast into compatible types for the operation. To perform this operation , one or both operands need to be explicitly cast with the operator.
We are using the cache transformation in our project , while doing the cache transformation our disk space goes to 0 MB free and SSIS package execution not completes even after 3 hr..Initially we have around 34 GB free space on C: drive .Our server configuration is 64 RAM. We are caching the data from table which contains around 21 million records.We changed the path in properties (“BLOPTempStoragePath”,”BufferTempStoragePath”) of Data Flow task of SSIS in which we are using Cache Transformation.

In SSIS I use the DQS Cleansing transformation component. I've got a knowledge base (KB) in place and this KB holds various domains and my data source has more input columns than would like to use for a particular clean up operation. I want to use some of the input columns to map against some domains in the KB. It is my understanding that it should be possible to select only the required input columns, but all i can do is select all input columns.
View 3 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to parameter the connection of a Lookup Transformation task - specifically the table/view name? I would like to be able to dynamically set the table that the Lookup Transformation is connecting to at runtime.I've looked into the "Use results of an SQL query" on the connection screen (which correlates to the "SqlCommand" property), but I'm unable to pass in a parameter this way.I've also looked into the SqlCommandParam, but that doesn't allow me to use a parameter in the "FROM" clause of the sql syntax.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am using SSIS in SQL Server Enterprise 2005. I have two OLE DB data sources from two disparate databases (IBM DB2 and Microsoft SQL Server), some columns from each of which are to be included in the merged output results. I have noted the various requirements in the forum postings with regard to sorting the OLE DB sources and specifying the output source columns as being sorted, as well as the requirement that the join fields in the two sources be close/exact matches. Yet, when I run this in VS, while the work area reflects the expected number of rows being input into the Merge Join transformation, no count is reflected as output from that transformation into the final destination table.Specifically, my two data sources (IBM DB2 and MS SQL) are configured as follows:
IBM DB2 contains an SQL statement that uses Cast operations to create the result columns.and an ORDER BY clause to ensure that the output is sorted by the desired two columns.. The OLE DB source property setting for IsSorted is set to true; the Output Columns folder column definitions for "key_ source_dtsy" and "key_source_dtrt" have their SortKeyPosition properties set to 1 and 2, respectively. Those field are both defined as data type DT_STR, with lengths of 4 and 2, respectively. Below is the Path metadata from the Data Flow Path editor from the path from this source:
IBM DB2 source"Name" "Data Type" "Precision" "Scale" "Length" "Code Page" "Sort Key Position" "Comparison Flags" "Source
Component""ID_CODE" "DT_STR" "0" "0" "10" "1252" "0" "" "Source F0005 User Defined Codes""CODE_DESCR_1" "DT_STR" "0" "0" "30" "1252" "0" "" "Source F0005 User Defined Codes""CODE_DESCR_2" "DT_STR" "0" "0" "30" "1252" "0" "" "Source F0005 User Defined Codes""key_source_dtsy" "DT_STR" "0" "0" "4" "1252" "1" "" "Source F0005 User Defined Codes""key_source_dtrt" "DT_STR" "0" "0" "2" "1252" "2" "" "Source F0005
User Defined Codes:
MS SQL contains an SQL statement that takes the columns as they are in the MS SQL table (no Cast operations needed); it also uses an ORDER BY clause to ensure the output is sorted by the join columns. The OLE DB source property setting for IsSorted is set to true; the Output Columns folder columns for "key_source_dtsy" and "key_source_dtrt" have their SortKeyPosition properties set to 1 and 2, respectively. Those field are both defined as data type DT_STR, with lengths of 4 and 2, respectively. Below is the Path metadata from the Data Flow Path editor from the path from this source:

The Merge Join transformation specifies an INNER JOIN using the columns named "key_source_dtsy" and "key_source_dtrt" from the respective data sources.I know there are alternative ways of accomplishing my intent (Lookup, port MS SQL table to IBM DB2 so join can occur in SELECT statement, etc.; however, I'd like to use this functionality and assume that it should work.
I am importing the values for field Atype from a .csv file as DT_STR, 13 and I need to fit them into a bit type CType field.
When I write the conditional split ((ISNULL(Atype)?"a":Atype)!=(ISNULL(CType)?"9":CType)) it says that the DT_WSTR and DT_I4 types are incompatible and that I need to explicitly cast with a cast operator. I haven't been able to make it work, how to explicitly cast?
Hello all,
I am getting an error that I am stuck on. I dragged the Audit Transformation for error handling (Flat File Source); however, the Audit Transformation is returning an error for one of the standard column "User name". I tried to change the length or take out this column, but the error does not go away. Below is the error message. Your help is much appreciated!
-Lawrence
"The length for "output column "User name" (195)" is not valid for the specified lineage item."
"component "Audit" (180)" failed validation and returned validation status "VS_ISBROKEN".
My source has 2.2 million of records. I'm performing the incremental load.In the lookup transformation i used the destination table for the reference using Full cache mode.For the first time package executed successfully but when i executed the package second time, Suddenly Package hangs while running.Than i truncate the data from the destination table and restart the SQL Server Services.After doing all this i executed package again and it worked but when i executed package second time, again package hangs up .I have 8GB RAM and i5 2.5 GHz Processor laptop.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI'll try to reproduce this later, but want to report it before I forget.
I just had my package fail on a VM I was testing on. It failed because on that machine, I logged in as MachineNameAdministrator instead of using my domain account (the VM is not in the domain).
This was a problem because the "User Name" column generated by the Audit Transformation was 17 characters long! This is the length of my domain + user name on my development machine. Similarly, the machine name length was 15 characters.
I'd love to know what the "correct" sizes are for these columns. In the meantime, I'm going to set these to 255 manually, and hope the size sticks.
P.S. There was one other post on this topic, though the thread isn't clear that this was the problem: http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=472445&SiteID=1.
Hi,
If you have two synchronous transformation components and the input of the second is connected to the output of the first, does the first transformation process (loop through) all rows in the buffer before outputting these rows to the second transformation? Or does the first transformation output each individual row to the second transormation as soon as it has finished processing it?
Thanks in advance,
Lawrie.

HiI was told that using DTS will allow me to schedule stored procedures to keep an sql database up to date.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am creating a DTS package for an import of data from MSAccess97 to SQLServer2000. I am quite new to the DTS so bear with me please.
Everything was fairly simple until I got stumped by the following problem:
In the source database there was a table with multiple fields (let's say A, B, C) for each record containing their values (let's say 1,2,3).
Now, in the destination database the table is built differently. It is a table containing the field data and definition.
So basically I need to turn this
ID A B C
0 1 2 3
1 4 5 6
into this
ID FieldName FieldVal
0 A 1
0 B 2
0 C 3
1 A 4
1 B 5
1 C 6
I am not sure how to go about that... any thoughts? :confused:

Hi All,
I'm using DTS package, a tool to transfer data from a txt file to database(Bulk Insert).
The Bulk Insert task provides an efficient way to copy large amounts of data into a SQL Server table or view.It seems that the Bulk Insert task supports only OLE DB connections for the destination database. But I want to use sql server authentication as OLEDB connection requires windows authentication.
So can the bulk insert be done using SQLServer authentication ? if yes then please help me.
I have given the code snippet below.
Code Sample:
Dim oPackage As New DTS.Package2()
Dim oConnection As DTS.Connection
Dim oStep As DTS.Step2
Dim oTask As DTS.Task
Dim oCustomTask As DTS.BulkInsertTask
Try
oConnection = oPackage.Connections.New("SQLOLEDB")
oStep = oPackage.Steps.New
oTask = oPackage.Tasks.New("DTSBulkInsertTask")
oCustomTask = oTask.CustomTask
With oConnection
oConnection.Catalog = "pubs"
oConnection.DataSource = "(local)"
oConnection.ID = 1
oConnection.UseTrustedConnection = True
oConnection.UserID = "Tony Patton"
oConnection.Password = "Builder"
End With
oPackage.Connections.Add(oConnection)
oConnection = Nothing
With oStep
.Name = "GenericPkgStep"
.ExecuteInMainThread = True
End With
With oCustomTask
.Name = "GenericPkgTask"
.DataFile = "c:dtsauthors.txt"
.ConnectionID = 1
.DestinationTableName = "pubs..authors"
.FieldTerminator = "|"
.RowTerminator = "
"
End With
oStep.TaskName = oCustomTask.Name
With oPackage
.Steps.Add(oStep)
.Tasks.Add(oTask)
.FailOnError = True
End With
oPackage.Execute()
Catch ex As Exception
MsgBox("Error: " & CStr(Err.Number) & vbCrLf_
& Err.Description, vbExclamation, oPackage.Name)
Finally
oConnection = Nothing
oCustomTask = Nothing
oTask = Nothing
oStep = Nothing
If Not (oPackage Is Nothing) Then
oPackage.UnInitialize()
End If
End Try

hi there, I have never use DTS before, now I am reading textbook for some special demand with DTS
the textbook not talk very much for the detail of skills. seems the easy way to finish this query is using DTS wizard.
but my requirement seems can't be done by DTS wizard.
here are my requirement below.
[move online Database to offline Database ]
1. the time of data preserve will have to reference separate firm's history data backup time ( for example, A company used to preserve data 6 months, and B company used to preserve data 12 months and so on..)
2. we will have only 2 kind of preserve time one is 6 months another is 12 months
3. The online DB only keeps 6 months data ( for example, when we do the DTS on 11/1 , we will only keep the data which from 5/1~10/31) , all data have to move to off-line DB except the past 6 months data
4. We will have to reference the history data preserve time to delete data after finished data movement
those requirement looks very diffcult for me because I have never use DTS before , can you please give me a simple example or maybe some article I can reference?
thank you very much and have a nice day

We are using MSBuild with a custom activity to build and deploy ISPACs from SSDT BI 2012. We are building the ISPAC by calling the invoke process activity which inturn performs a build of the solution using devenv.exe.
All of this is working fine until we have solutions/ projects (dtproj) with complex names. We have a solution named Company.Project.SSIS.Package.sln when we do a build it creates an ISPAC as expected however it is named incorrectly - Company.Project.ispac.
When we subsequently deploy the ISPAC, it creates a project in the catalog called Company.Project.SSIS again this is wrong. This also happend if i perform a manual build in VS2012.
The issue is, the automated deployment of the ISPAC fails as it is looking for a file with a different name. Is there a way of changing these settings?
