Multiple Lookup
Feb 1, 2008
I have a TechFactTable containing the following information --- TechName1, TechName1 ... etc. There are 5 techs assigned to one record for round the clock service. For this fact table that I'm creating, I need to use a TechDimension (TechIDs, TechNames) to create a ID mapping that can be used in the fact table. The fact table needs to use the TechIDs not names.
I'm trying to create, can I set my lookup (ref table = TechDimension) to look up all 5 of these IDs at the same time?
For example,
Code Snippet
[TechFactTable]
TechName1 TechName2 ...
--------- ---------
Obama Clinton
[TechDim]
TechIDs TechNames
---------- -----------------
1 Obama
2 Clinton... ...
So i've set up my lookup query to return the TechDim info using something like
Code Snippet
SELECT T1.TechID AS TechID1,
T1.TechName AS TechName1,
T2.TechID AS TechID2,
T2.TechName AS TechName2
... (etc)
FROM TechDim T1 LEFT JOIN ON TechDim T2 ON T1.TechID = T2.TechID
After this I mapped my columns in the lookup so that I had
TechFactTable TechDim
TechName1 ------> TechName1
TechName2 ------> TechName2
and then return the newly added columns TechID1 and TechID2 but all in the SAME LOOKUP?

Is it possbile to have multiple fuzzy lookup within a data flow?
I need to have at least 3 fuzzy lookup in a data flow. Here're the conditions that I try to find match: 1=Zip&City, 2=Zip&State, 3=City&State. I've the first fuzzy lookup working fine. After that, I've a conditional split to get any unmatch, then use another fuzzy lookup for a second condition...at this point, I get the error saying "The package contains two objects with duplicate name of output column _Similarity..." I do not need to get the _Similarity and _Confidence, so is there a way to exclude them from returning in the output?
Any comments?
Thanks in advance.

In a Lookup component I've defined a SQL query which returns a sorted resultset. For each Lookup component input row I want to have a single output row. Problem is that for each input row there is possibility of multiple matches in SQL query resultset. From all of the possible multiple hits I want only the first one to be returned, and if no match is found then no output row. How to implement this?

Please indulge my ignorance, as I have only been using SSIS for a couple of weeks.
I'm trying to create a data warehouse using two input tables.
A column needs to be added to one table by using a lookup into the second table.
SSIS seems to handle the "no matches" and "single match" cases perfectly.
I can't for the life of me figure out how to properly handle multiple matches.
SSIS defaults to the first match, but I need to compute the "best" match.
Many thanks in advance
Scott!

I'm developing an ETL solution that needs to look for duplicate records using a fuzzy lookup. If the lookup table has an identity column, I get the following error. I can get this to work on a local desktop instance of SQL server, but not on my development server or production box. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Also I've stripped down the incoming data for the lookup to a very simplified version of what I'd like to use, but if I can't get it to work then I can't add addtional columns to match with.
It's like it's trying to add it's own Id to the temp table created for the tokens
An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft SQL Native Client" Hresult: 0x80040E14 Description: "Multiple identity columns specified for table '##FLRef_070403_10:09:36_3532_aeac56a4-8bc0-4ff4-ac41-0984e293261a'. Only one identity column per table is allowed.".
An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft SQL Native Client" Hresult: 0x80040E14 Description: "Database name 'tempdb' ignored, referencing object in tempdb.".

I work in the healthcare area, and am handling the survey data ETL's. There are around 8 different survey areas and based on information received from them for the visit they reference, I want to pull in more info from our invoicing database. My idea is this:
1.) Pull in the flat file to an ODBC staging table
2.) Cache all invoice records that fall between the MIN(Date of Service) and MAX(Date of Service) from the staging table.
3.) First lookup the information needed on patientID, providerID, date of service, and billing location.
4.) For the surveys that didn't match on those 4 columns, try looking up based on patientID, date of service, and billing location (since I could be 99% sure this would still return the record I need).
5.) For the remaining surveys, lookup based just on patientID and date of service. These records will be flagged for manual review because clearly, if a patient has multiple appointments in the same day, this will be prone to error.
However, in trying to use only 3 of the columns in the lookup, I get the error saying basically that I need to utilize all 4. Is there a way around this, or is there an entirely different way I should be approaching this? The reason I thought cache transform was the answer is because I will need to run a different package for each lookup, as the data and logic between each survey will vary, but the invoice data "pool" will stay the same regardless.

My report has two data sets that hold inventory from two different departments.
ds_DeptA and ds_DeptB
I have a table, that pulls the DeptB status of DeptA record and displays it. This returns empty when the lookup fails to make a match, which is fine. Typically means DeptB does not have the record yet. I need to count these empty (null) feilds and populate it in a Text box outside of the table.
I just can't figure out the syntax with multiple datasets. I can't use the lookup expression as part of the count expression since the count expression is not contained in a table that has a dataset.
table: ds_DeptA
fields:
ID
Name
date_set_to_DeptB
<<Expr>> =Lookup(Fields!ID.Value,Fields!DeptA_ID.Value,Fields!DeptB_Status.Value, "ds_DeptB")

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

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:

Apologies if this has already been asked and answered, though I haven't found it via search.
In my report model I have a lookup entity that consists of a Code field (PK) and a Description field this is linked to a parent entity (table) and works fine, e.g. the description is shown in the parent entity instead of the FK code. However this lookup entity would be useful linked to many other entities (tables) which use the same FK code linked to the lookup entity's Code field (PK) for use of the Description field. In my first attempt I linked the lookup to a second table entity but unlike the originally linked table entity, this is not shown as the description in report builder, only the role appears and I have to select the role then the description from the 2 fields displayed (Code, Description), additionally I get shown the related first table entity.
Firstly can a lookup entity be linked to multiple tables?
Secondly, if so am I forgetting something so only the description is shown like in the first linked table entity?
Thirdly, if I correct the problem is there a property I need to enable/disable to stop the first linked table entity appearing in the second table entity entity list in report builder or should I just leave it?
Any help/advice/suggestions would be appreciated, and apologies for long list of questions but all the books and help files I have used don't seem to use imperfect/real life data sources and examples.
Thanks
Andy

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.

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 want to lookup values from a database into another database both of which are in the same sql server 2000. One databases is called GamingCommissiondb the other is called LicensingActions I need some of the tables to communicate with each other, to look values from one another. Example I need the Termination table to look up values from the Revocations table. Would using LinkedServers suffice??

Hi,
I am transferring the xml data from an xml file into sql server table using ssis.
To avoid any duplicate import via this ssis package, I would like to first check if data exists in the sql server table for what is about to be imported. If so then delete the existing data and then import.
Question:
How do I get the field value say ID field from the file and then take this id and delete these from the table in sql server first.
Is this to do with lookup or is there an easier way to do this please?
thanks

Hi
I am trying to use lookup to see if a item esists in my table ( 3 key fields ). If the lookup fails I want to insert the records. If it succeeds I have put a recordcount to catch the items that are not required. I don't think that I understand the settings for failed rows. I have tried setting the Configure Error Output to redirect, but this does not seem to work. I have the below errors.
[SQL Server Destination [151]] Error: Unable to prepare the SSIS bulk insert for data insertion.
[DTS.Pipeline] Error: component "SQL Server Destination" (151) failed the pre-execute phase and returned error code 0xC0202071.
Can someone please advise me how to set up this component to work for my application

Hi,
Before inserting records of a recordset I would like to check that each one of these records doesn't exist in the destination table 1. If the records exist, they should be redirect to other table 2.
For this purpose I use a lookup task. The referende table is the destination table 1. The green line is linked to table 2 and the red line is linked to table 1.
The first execution works properly and copies de records to table 1, but on the next executions the records are copied to table 1 instead of being copied to table 2.
Any idea??
Thanks.

say i have a customer.aspx that allows a user to enter in customer data.
on customer.aspx, i have dropdownSalesRep which allows the user to associate a sales rep with the customerbut some customers come to directly, and not thru a sales rep, so I want the user to be able to specify "none"
Is it best to have a dummy record in my SalesReps table called "none" with an ID of say "999", or is there some other better way to deal with this?

Hi Guys,
I really need to know if it is possible to look in a Transaction Log for a specific transaction, it is for audit purposes. In the affirmative case, could you teach me how to do it or at least point me in the right direction.
I'll really appreciate your help ;-)

I am trying to understand how to create an SP that will do the following on a varchar field:
Someone enters a [Policy No] and the result set returns the [Policy No] the user entered (if found), plus 10 [Policy No]'s above and 10 [Policy No]'s below the [Policy No] they were looking for.
I figure this has to be a common thing that others have encountered, of course maybe not on a varchar data type field, but still this must be possible.
If anyone can shed some light on this SP-Lookup with either some code or a general direction to go towards - I would greatly appreciate it!
Thank you,

Hi
I'm new in SQL. I have a big problem
Database: MSSQL 2000
I have two tables: (results) one with numeric results and one with names (importance_scale)
SELECT * FROM results

---- ---- ---- ---- ----
john 2 1 2 2 2
anna 0 2 2 2 2
phil 2 2 2 2 2
dave 1 0 2 2 2
SELECT * FROM importance_scale
imp_value imp_name
--------- ------------
2 very important
1 important
0 not important
i1,i2 etc. value it is a imp_value from table 'importance_scale'
I would like to make report which will show all results in this format (in example only first record):
name i1 i2 i3 i4 i5 etc.
----- --- --- --- --- ---
john very important important very important very important very important etc.
I was thinking about using CASE I don't want use cursor. What is the best way?

Hi, this may be a basic question but i can't get my mind straight and need some advice.
I've read there's limitations on using the Lookup Task.
What i want to do is simply look if a Data exists on a table, if it does i want to update some columns (or delete the row and insert a new row), if it doesnt exists i want to inser a row.
That's all, easy as hell in sql and c#/.net
The thing is i dont know whats the best way of doing it in SSIS.
My limited ssis knowledge tells me Script Component should be able to do the work. That is, send it a variable holding the values i want to verify in the database and depending if it exists to the whats necesary.
So my question is, can i connect to the DB via Script and make my custom selects there?
If so how can i do it?
If not, what's the best way of doing that simple task?

Hi,
I am using a fuzzy lookup to cleanse data from a sales line details table, during the import process. The sales order line details contains a filed called 'reference' and this is compared to a field called 'category' in another table.
Using data viewers to check through the cleansing process, I notice that the fuzzy lookup doesn't seem to match i.e.
tbl.salesline.reference = 'I3' -> tbl.sales.category ='I03'
the above is OK, but the lookup also returns the following
tbl.salesline.reference = 'I9' -> tbl.sales.category ='I01'
The value I9 doesnt exist, and is miskeyed by user entry, and should have been 'I99'. I would have expected the fuzzy lookup to pickup the I99 value as at least two of the chrs are matching, but no, it picks the first 'I*' in the table.
If I expand the fuzzy lookup to return more results, i.e. 5 per record, then it returns the first 5 results....I01, I02 I03 and so on.
Is there a way of improving the fuzzy lookup itself?

So i am designing a new database that currently has several tables 'look up tables' that are used just to limit the values of columns in other tables.
my question is what is the best way to do this?
1. multiple tables - one for each set of values (ex: JobType, Position, PayGrade)
2. One large table that holds all the lookup values - has a 'Category' field to group them
3. put constraints on the columns of the tables that are 'looking up' and get rid of the lookup tables.
thanks
