Lookup Entity Not Working
Jan 23, 2008
Hi,
I have a table called Posts which contains an attribute Hospital ID. This is a foreign Key to the Hospitals table, which contains two fields : Name & Region.
In my report model, I would like the Hospital ID to be replaced with just the Hospital name. I have set the Hospitals entity to IsLookup=True and the IdentifyingAttribute to Hospital ID. However, in the report builder Hospital ID is still being displayed with no sign of the hospital name.
Can anyone point out where I'm going wrong? I have tried setting the Name field in Hospitals to Role or Merge as I read that using 'name' might cause some problems but that made no difference

I am trying to create an opportunity report that includes notes from the notes entity. Unfortunatly, when I pull the fields from the notes entity into my reports, it seems there is no way to tie the notes to specific opportunities or accounts that they are associated with and I get all notes under the first item listed on my report. Is there a way to link data sets like Access lets you link tables?

I'm currently loading a package that does a lookup on a column of data type nvarchar(4).The values itself are (A+, A, B+, B, C, D, /). The strange lookup behaviour is happening for each of the cases, so it's not related to a specific value. After trying to put the cache on NO CACHE, the lookup works perfectly. When using the default FULL CACHE the strange behaviour happens. Could it be related to the data type? I have not yet tried to use a CHAR instead of a NVARCHAR but it looks like people have similar issues using CHAR.

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?

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?

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.

Hi All,
Actually this is in regard to SCD Type 2 Dimension, Scenario is like that I am moving Fact table from some old source and I have dimensionA description value in fact which I want to replace with appropriate id from Dimension Table and that Dimension table is SCD Type 2 based on StartDate and EndDate and Fact Table doesn't contains direct date value rather there is timeId in Fact so to update the value in Fact table I have to Join Time Dimension table and other Dimension Table to replace fact Description with proper Id.
Lets assume DimensionA Structure
id
Description
StartDate
EndDate
Fact Table
id
measure1
measure2
TimeId
Description
Time Dimension
TimeId
Date
Day
Hour ...

I am doing a lookup that requires mapping 2 columns in the column mapping section. When I do this, I get the error "Row yielded no match during lookup" . The SQL that I captured in SQL profiler does find the record when I run it in Management Studio. I have already tried trimming everything to no avail.
Why is this happening?
I tried enabling memory restrictions but then I my package hangs and I get a SQLDUMPER_ERRORLOG.log file with the following logged:

I have an MDS entity which will be managed in excel. I do not want the user to enter the Code and Name so I have configured code to auto generate and name to default to another attribute value. I have then hidden code and name in excel.
When I use excel and enter the attribute and publish, the name column is blank in the MDS table.Am I missing something here with the defaulting?The Action is defined as 'Name Defaults to Country'. Where Country is the attribute I am populating.

Entity Relationship diagram
can anyone help me with my diagram pleasee..i have been banging my head on it for weeks.
i have 6 entities Student, Course, Module, Attendance, and Result
Polato Student Record System
"The Polato university administration has decided to computerise their student record system. The system must be able to automatically print a new ID card for students on their admission and after completion of each academic year. The card should have the student’s name, number of years and the message welcome to 1st, 2nd or final year.
In a bid to curb the rate of incompletion, the system should also be able to record attendance of students to any class. The system should be able to automatically send out a warning to any student that misses any two lectures for the first time. (Of course the student should come up with a very good reason for missing the lectures or else he/she will be removed from the module). Missing three or more lectures leads to automatic withdrawal from the module involved. A student will receive notice from the system, right after missing the second lecture.
The system also must be able to calculate each student’s results for that semester only showing details of all modules taken. You should use the simple formula; the total of all the modules taken, divided by the number of modules"

I need to design a schema that will provide me a hierarchical view in reporting. I mean by this is, lets say:
Hospital
|_________> Hospital Entity
| | |
| | V
| | Clinic A
| | - Jane Doe MD
| | - Janette Brown MD
| | ACME Clinic
| | - Jennifer Smith MD
| | Clinic of Jennifer Smith MD
| | - Jennifer Smith MD
| | - Billy Johnson MD
| |
| V
| - Earl Brown MD (Hospital Entity Resident Practitioner)
| - Janette Brown MD
V
- John Smith MD
- Bob Jones MD
The design should also allow me to query a practitioner and the query will show all the entities he or she is a member of.
If this is not the correct place to post this posting, please let me know the correct place and I will make the necessary changes.
Thanks,
Stephen

I have VS 2005 and SQL Server 2005 Express installed and I created 4 tables and setup the primary and foreign keys and can view the individual foreign key relationships by right clicking on the foreign key.
Is there a way to view a table relationship diagram (fields with primary and foreign keys), such as Access provides. Does VS 2005 or SQL Server 2005 have that capability?
Thanks

Hello to everyone!
I would like to ask you sthg as far as the e-r model is concerned!
I haven't started of course to use SQL yet,cause i have to make the e-r model first.
I have a a question to make :
For example i have to keep data for a Personal Computer (PC)
So i have the entity : COMPUTER
COMPUTER has many characteristics/fields like the primary key which is going to be PC_ID and it's unique for every computer,NAME_OF_PC the name and also TYPE_OF_MOTHERBOARD, TYPE_OF_RAM, TYPE_OF_HARD_DISK etc.
I have to keep for the TYPE_OF_MOTHERBOARD the manufacturer, the motherboard's code etc.
Shall i make an entity for the motherboard or for the HARD_DISK or for the RAM?
Cause i want next to change these fields of every COMPUTER if it's n eeded!
e.g. i have the PC_ID = 12 and i want to change the hard disk cause it's not working!(shall i keep an entity of the hard disk or not?)
Can sm advise me what i shall do?
Thanks, in advance! :)

Hi all,
I don't understand what's happening here.
I have a Conditional Split with 3 outputs. On the first output I have a lookup, when I execute the package I have 56 rows going through the Conditional Split, all rows are then going to the 2nd and 3rd output but the lookup on the first output generates an error "Row yielded no match during lookup".
I don't understand why the lookup is generating an error while there is no row going through it.
Any idea ?
Sébastien.

Hi,
I'm trying to find out whether it is possible to integrate an external entity into MS SQL Server in following way:
the entity defines certain set of tables
when user performs a query on one of these tables, the query is sent to the entity for processing and results are returned back to SQL server (and to client)
I thought integration services could be used for this task, but I'm quite unfamiliar with MS SQL server, so I don't know whether it would be a feasible solution...

Working in a project using Entity Framework (Code First)...
Until now the project has been connected to a (generated) SQL Server Compact 4.0 database,
but now we want to connect to a SQL Server (at least 2008R2 since we will use FILESTREAM...)
Our problem right now is the possibility to enter Infinity values into REAL columns in the DB...
It works in the SQL Server Compact but we have not been able to get it to work in 2008R2 or 2014
The insertion of Infinity values is constructed by the Entity Framework (from using float.PositiveInfinity in C#) automatically so I mainly wonder if it at all is possible in a "real" database. Maybe there are some configurations possible to get it to work?

My problem seems simple but I can't how to do it with MDS... or even if it's possible !
I've got 2 entities "Agent" and "Function".
"Agent" has a code, a name, and an attribute called "function_code" which refers to "Function"'s code
"Function" as a code and a name. Name is the description of the function.
I'd like to see in a single row :
"Code", "Name", "Funcion_code" and "Name" (the last one from the entity "Function").
In SQL it will something like
Select a.code, a.name, a.function_code, f.name
from agent a, function f
where a.function_code = f.code
I've tried with explicit hierarchy, derived hierarchy, consolidated members...
I was able to have an entity with all those attributes but I can choose the attribute I want. My goal is that, according to "Function_code" in Agent, I get the "Name" of the function...

I am designing a ssis package,This is intends to mine text data(Data extracted from websites).
Term lookup/Term extraction has been used as tools for mining.
I have lookup terms defined with me for reference table,but the main problem lie in extracting the nearby text/number/charcters to these lookup terms during mining.
For example :
I found noun "Email" 200 (frequency score) times in my text,Now I want to extract nearby email address(this is also true for PhoneNumber,Address attributes also).so how can I achieve this with SSIS.
If u have some idea/suggestion to carry out this challenge with or without Term Extraction/Term Lookup,plz do write here.

I have a datagridview bound to a table that is part of an Entity Framework model. A user can edit data in the datagridview and save the changes back to SQL. But, there is a stored procedure that can also change the data, in SQL, not in the datagridview. When I try to "refresh" the datagridview the linq query always returned the older cached data. Here's the code that I have tried using to force EF to pull retrieve new data:
// now refresh the maintenance datagridview data source
using (var context = new spdwEntities())
{
var maintData =
from o in spdwContext.MR_EquipmentCheck
where o.ProdDate == editDate
orderby o.Caster, o.Strand
select o;
mnt_DGV.DataSource = maintData;
}
When I debug, I can see that the SQL table has the updated data in it, but when this snippet of code runs, maintData has the old data in it.
