Master Data Services :: Preventing Duplicate Inserts
Mar 4, 2015
In my trivial example below I have a Nationality entity. The entity just has the code and Name attributes, with the code being an automatically generated Integer. I am inserting one record and then trying to prevent the same record being inserted, by setting the ImportType to 1:
truncate table [stg].[Nationality_1_Leaf]
insert into [stg].[Nationality_1_Leaf](importType, ImportStatus_id, BatchTag, Name)
values(1, 0, 'some batch' , 'American' )
select * From [stg].[Nationality_1_Leaf]
exec stg.udp_Nationality_1_Leaf 'VERSION_1', 1, 'some batch'
After this I truncate the staging table and repeat the process. Unfortunately a new record is entered into the Entity even though the name is identical to a record that already exists.

My problem is that the 'INSERT INTO' query that sends the records to thetable is dynamically compiled in VBA and and the target table has a twocolumn primary key. I have made a number of attempts at getting 'WHERENOT EXISTS' to cure the problem but so far without success and previouspostings have resulted in advice to create an 'ignore duplicates' index.This solved the problem in asmuch as it allowed the SQL to insert the records that did not alreadyexist but resulted in the message appearing every time the user ran thethe query. Whilst this is not a major problem it is vaguely irritatingand I would like to find a way to stop it happening. I suspect that thesolution may involve using the @@ERROR command but I am not sure of thesyntax.RegardsColin*** Sent via Developersdex http://www.developersdex.com ***

Hi all.. I've been scouring the forums for about 6 hours to no
avail. This is a really simple question. I'm trying to have
a registration page that lets the user input name, email, desired
username, and password. I want to check the username and email
fields to make sure ppl cannot sign up twice. So from what I've
gathered I have a couple of options:
1) i can set up a unique constraint on the database columns,
2) i can run a select statement before inserting,
3) i can store the whole database column in a variable then search through it.
My question is how to do option 2? All of my transactions are through a sqldatasource object in c#.

I have a table using an identity column as its Primary Key and twocolumns (table reduced for simplicity) EmployeeNumber and ArrivalTime.CREATE TABLE [tblRecords] ([ID] [bigint] IDENTITY (1, 1) NOT NULL ,[EmployeeNumber] [varchar] (10) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_ASNOT NULL ,[ArrivalTime] [datetime] NOT NULL ,CONSTRAINT [PK_tblRecords] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED([ID]) ON [PRIMARY]) ON [PRIMARY]GOI have an insert procedure that checks for duplicates before insertinga new record:IF (SELECT TOP 1 [ID] FROM tblRecords WHERE EmployeeNumber =@SocialSecurity) IS NULLBEGININSERT INTO tblRecords(EmployeeNumber,ArrivalTime)VALUES (@EmployeeNumber, @ArrivalTime)SELECT SCOPE_IDENTITY()ENDELSESELECT 0 AS DuplicateRecordIn 99.9% of the cases, this works well. However, in the event that theinsert attempts are literally "ticks" apart, the "SELECT TOP 1..."command completes on both attempts before the first attempt completes.So I end up with duplicate entries if the procedure is called multipletimes vey quickly. The system needs to prevent duplicateEmployeeNumbers within the past 45 days so setting the EmployeeNumberto UNIQUE would not work. I can check for older entries (45 days ornewer) very easily, but I do not know how to handle the times when theprocedure is called multiple times within milliseconds. Would aTRANSACTION with a duplicate check after the INSERT with a ROLLBACKwork in this case? Any help is greatly appreciated!-E

Hi, i need an opinion on this...to prevent the duplicate record in db,i am using unique constraints for a column or combination of column as the case may be.By reading this article http://aspalliance.com/687_Preventing_Duplicate_Record_Insertion_on_Page_Refresh.5 , i get the feeling that its not such a good idea..i am wondering,what does it imply?Does it mean that unique constraints are not reliable enough?Does it mean,it may break and let the duplicate record inserted,even though its not suppose to?I am using SQL server 2005
I have read Dino's article on dup recs and i have still not understood it completely.. i am looking for some not so complex ,full proof method,to prevent duplicate record insertion by clicking refresh or multiple (careless)clicking on submit....thanks ..

I have a situation here. Please
advice me on this.
I have a master table and a child
table. They have a PK and FK relationship. The master table has an identity
column with auto increment set to true. This map as a FK in the child table. My
questions are:
Can I have a single form to insert a new record into
master and child table at the same time?This has to be accomplished without stored
procedures. Can it be done?Is it possible to do this with a single insert query?
If yes, can it be done with sql data source or
dataset or tableadapters’?Please point me towards appropriate link for doing
so.
Thank you.
I am currently using SQL Server
2005 and VS 2005.

I am getting ErrorCode 8 while loading the data from stage to model. I have checked my error view it states that "Member Code is Inactive".
Initially I have loaded same set of data in Model from MDS Stage table but then deleted with ImportType = 5 which removed all the data from the MDM model.
Now i want to load it back but its giving the Error Code 8 .. Before loading the same data i have changed the stage table Importtype to 2 and Importstatusid to 0.

I've been quite excited about SQL Server MDS that should allow non-IT staff to easily maintain data. However maintaining data that have many-to-many relationships seems to be quite a pain. I believe the best way is:
Open up your MDS web interfaceGo to entities > product (for example)Add a new member and fill the details Click "product parts" in the bottom right "Related Entities" partAdd a new memberTry and find the product you just created from the dropdownlistSelect the first part and click OKAgain try and find the product you have created from the dropdownlistSelect the second part and click OKRepeat...Close the tab on your browser and finish your product entity.How I wish it worked:
Open up your MDS web interfaceGo to entities > product (for example)Add a new member and fill the detailsCheck a checkbox for each part visible under "product parts" in the bottom right "Related Entities" partFinish your product entity.

Everytime I run the load packages that I have built into the MDS staging the tables, in MDS_Staging, get cleared down and then repopulated. When the MDS database gets new data it appends it and does not clear down the data that is already in the database and is there fore hold duplicate rows.
Is there a way of truncating the tables in the MDS database before populating again with the new data from the MDS_Staging database so as to not hold duplicate rows?

I have 2 SQL servers (2012 SP1 & 2014SP1) with MDS. Both are working well on web. I installed the 2014 version Excel add-in, however, it can connect to 2012 instance but failed to connect to 2014 with below error.The connection failed because the URL is not valid or the Master Data Manager web application version is not supported.

Perhaps this task is not for MDS.... But another tool for rapid development & startUp - we don't have. And nevertheless....
We created table managers_plan in MDS :
year
month
id_manager (domain attr)
POS (domain attr)
plan_sum_USD
plan_unit
----------------------------
Entities:
Managers ~ 800 records
POS ~ 100 000 records
managers_plan Total records for
1 year = 100K x 12 = 1 200 000
managers_plan - table partitions
- Will bemade ?

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 was reading that when applying 2008 R2 SP1 you need to run the MDS update component manually: [URL] I was curious if that package changed in later service packs because I couldn't find any mention of it.
SQL 2012, if there was a similar process in their service packs for MDS, or if it hasn't been upgraded?

I have setup SQL Server 2012 - MDS and can run the web client from IE11. I've created the model and entities from System Administration ok, however when I try and use Explorer to work with the master data I've setup, there's an error "The remote server returned an error: NotFound".I ran Profiler while clicking Explorer, and it's connecting with the XML statements and running without any errors - so it's seems it's not any issue with connecting to the MDS database.

When we need to add or edit a member on a entity, for columns with foreign key, we get a search box to look up the value. Here the default search is based on name. We want the code to be the default search column. I see that when i changed in the backend .aspx file and restarted IIS, the change happened and now the default search is code. I just want to know if there will be any impacts going forward ? may be during upgrades or migrations ?

I have two tables that I UNION to retrieve data for users. A combination of these should have only one employee in the table. The problem is there is a unique id created for the position of instructors. In the other table, it holds all employees with an employee number. Some data such as username, email address, etc., does not change. So even though UNION should remove duplicates, I still have duplicates because of usernames is what I'm filtering on, it is the same in each table. In the combined table I'm only selecting specific employees based on Job class and Job code. For employee id in the first table it is preceeded with 'B', and the second by 'T' (this is only to identify which table the data is taken from). Here is what I am getting when I Union both tables.
query
SELECT
distinct 'B-'+ Employee_ID
as Employee_ID
, Username
,Email
[code]...

I used "MDSModelDeploy deployclone" do deploy a package with EntityA, EntityB and EntityC to a production environment. I then deleted EntityB from my dev environment and used "MDSModelDeploy deployupdate" do update the model in prodution. After the deployUpdate, EntityB still exists in production. Is there something special I need to do (option of MDSModelDeploy?) in order for the deploy to delete an entity during a migration?

I have a bad web application install for Master Data Services. This was the first installation and there was some back and forth to get it going. I now have set up an identically configured server correctly and figure the easiest thing to do is delete the web app and re-create it rather than spend a bunch of time troubleshooting. How do I do this? I've googled and haven't had much luck. I only want to uninstall the web app since everything up until then was installed correctly.
