SSIS - Derived Column Transformation
Feb 7, 2008
Hello All,
Can someone help me out in providing the STEPS to solve this problem. My scneario is, I've a table which has got 2 fields and 5 default row values have been filled in. Now, using the above, duirng package runtime, it need to dynamically create additional field and has to store values like for.e.g (0001 America). I'm getting the following error while executing the ssis package.
1. [DTS.Pipeline] Warning: Component "Derived Column" (1170) has been removed from the Data Flow task because its output is not used and its inputs have no side effects. If the component is required, then the HasSideEffects property on at least one of its inputs should be set to true, or its output should be connected to something.
2. [DTS.Pipeline] Warning: Source "OLE DB Source Output" (87) will not be read because none of its data ever becomes visible outside the Data Flow Task.
Please suggest with your valuable solution at the earliest.
Thanks

I am trying to put the following as an expression in the SSIS Derived Column Transformation Editor.
DATEADD(DAY, DATEDIFF(DAY, 0, GETDATE()), 0)
It is not allowing it. This works fine in a regular SQL statement.
Does anyone know how I can get this to work?

i have too many DTS packages to migrate to SSIS, and while examining a DTS package in BIDS (converted with the migration utility) i tried to edit the resulting migrated package, which opened the DTS interface with the two connection icons joined by the big fat arrow with a gear on it...not exactly what i had in mind, iow, it looks like SSIS on the outside, but its still DTS on the inside.
So I stripped out a series of components from a more complex package hoping that simplifying it would reveal the contents of old DTS Transformations tab at least partially set up in a Derived Column transformation.
Can i get there from here, or must i recreate every stinking definition in a derived column manually from the ground up?
thanks very much for your help

Hi,
I have dates in "mmddyy" format coming from the sources and they are older dates of mid 80s like 082580 for instance.
When I cast it this way (DT_DBTIMESTAMP) Source_Date , It says ok but throws a runtime error.
When I hardcode a date in same format, (DT_DBTIMESTAMP) "082580" , It becomes red (an indication of syntax error) . Please note that we use double quotes in expressions in Derived Column Transformation; So an anticipation that using double quotes over single ones would be the syntax problem would be wrong.
Any help in this will sincerely be appreciated.
Thanks

Hi All
I m designing SSIS having Data Flow as
Flat File > Derived Column Transformation > Destination Table
but while transfering record from text file to table i need some logic here
my text file is
"ID"|"Name"
1012|"10AA"
1013|"10BB"
logic is 10 should be replace by variable VID = 98
I defined this veriable as int
My ID column in database is int and Name column is varchar(50)
I try here expression like
ID != 98 ? @[User::VID] : ID
it work fine
but for varchar column I am not able to do
I got error when i write expression
SUBSTRING(Name,1,2) != "98" ? [DT_STR, 50, 1252] "(@[User::VID])" + rest of value of column : [Name]
my final output in table should be like
ID..Name
98..98AA
98..98BB
Please help me out

I have this expression
(Registered_Units == Limited_Units) ? 0 : (Painted_Units / (Registered_Units - Limited_Units)) * 100)
It gives me 0.00, although those 3 columns have values.
if I cast it like this
(Registered_Units == Limited_Units) ? 0 : ((((DT_DECIMAL,2)Painted_Units) / ((DT_DECIMAL,2) (Registered_Units - Limited_Units))) * 100)
It gives me correct answer in whole number but .00 after decimal.
Any clue how to fix it ?

Hello.
I am using Derived Column transformation for calculating the age of individual and then adding the column to my final destination. In SQL, the DOB is varchar(50) and the output column I am creating should be Integer.
Here is the expression I am using for calculating the age:
(DATEDIFF("DAY",(DT_DBTIMESTAMP)TRIM(DOB),(DT_DBTIMESTAMP)TRIM([Service Date])) / 365.25)
In SQL, I have no problems getting the age of a person, but I am having difficulties using Derived Column Transformation.
I get the following error when executing my package:
Error: 0xC0049067 at Data Flow Task, Derived Column [2086]: An error occurred while evaluating the function.Error: 0xC0209029 at Data Flow Task, Derived Column [2086]: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_INDUCEDTRANSFORMFAILUREONERROR. The "component "Derived Column" (2086)" failed because error code 0xC0049067 occurred, and the error row disposition on "output column "_AGE" (2877)" specifies failure on error. An error occurred on the specified object of the specified component. There may be error messages posted before this with more information about the failure.
Any assistnace would be greatly appreciated.

Greetings, I am attempting to create a flat file delimited by |. I am using (ISNULL(LIN1_OPT_ADDR) ? "" : LIN1_OPT_ADDR + "| ") to replace the blank address column with the pipe delimiter. So that a row that would consist of:
Customer Number,Name,Address Line1,City,State
12345,ACE HARDWARE INC. ,801 Rockefeller St.,New York, New York
56789,BUILDING SUPPLY INC., ,Wichita, Kansas
Should end up as:
12345|ACE HARDWARE INC.|801 Rockefeller St.|NEW YORK|NEW YORK
56789|BUILDING SUPPLY INC.||Wichita|Kansas
When I run the data flow to create the flat file the file contains the following:
12345|ACE HARDWARE INC.|801 Rockefeller St.|NEW YORK|NEW YORK
56789|BUILDING SUPPLY INC.| | |Wichita|Kansas
Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong?
Thanks.

I am trying to change the value from "T" to "A" in trans_type column based on the value in Transfer_of_Provider column..
I like to change "T" to "A" if the value of Transfer_of_provider column is "Y".
"Transfer_of_provider" coulmn has NULL value..
I've used the below logic to do that... but becuase of NULL value in "Transfer_of_provider" column .. it keep giving me a truncation error..
TRans_type = (ISNULL(Transfer_Of_Provider) ? "N" : Transfer_Of_Provider) == "Y" ? "'T" : "A"
How can I make this work?

Hi all€”Given a date field called [Reading Date] and a time field called [Reading Time], I am attempting to use the following transformation on the field to test for nulls and combine the data into a single field called [Reading Date/Time]:
(DT_WSTR)([Reading Date]== "") || ISNULL([Reading Date]) || (DT_WSTR)([Reading Time]== "") || ISNULL([Reading Time])? (DT_DBDATE)GETDATE() : (DT_DATE)(SUBSTRING((DT_WSTR,8)[Reading Date],5,2) + "/" + SUBSTRING((DT_WSTR,8)[Reading Date],7,2) + "/" + SUBSTRING((DT_WSTR,8)[Reading Date],1,4) + " " + SUBSTRING((DT_WSTR,8)[Reading Date],1,8))
I get the following error:
Error at Data Flow Task [Derived Column1[177]]: Attempt to parse the expression "(DT_WSTR)([Reading Date]== "") || ISNULL([Reading Date]) || (DT_WSTR)([Reading Time]== "") || ISNULL([Reading Time])? (DT_DBDATE)GETDATE() : (DT_DATE)(SUBSTRING((DT_WSTR,8)[Reading Date],5,2) + "/" + SUBSTRING((DT_WSTR,8)[Reading Date],7,2) + "/" + SUBSTRING((DT_WSTR,8)[Reading Date],1,4) + " " + SUBSTRING((DT_WSTR,8)[Reading Date],1,8))" failed. The expression might contain an invalid token, an incomplete token, or an invalid element. It might not be well-formed or might be missing part of a required element such as a parenthesis.
Here is a sample [Reading Date]:
05/07/08
Here is a sample [Reading Time]:
19:45:48
I need to be able to handle exceptions if one or both contain NULL or no data at all. Any suggestions on how to fix this?
Thanks,
Jon

Hi.
I am using the following expression to check if the first charcter of a string is not the letter "E" and if it is, strip it off by selecting the remainder of the string:
SUBSTRING([Derv.comno],1,1) == "E" ? SUBSTRING([Derv.comno],2,10) : [Derv.comno]
This is ok in 99.9% of cases, but ideally I would like to be able to check, and alter the string if the first charcter is anything but numeric
I had something like this in mind:
SUBSTRING([Derv.comno],1,1) != ("1","2","3") ? SUBSTRING([Derv.comno],2,10) : [Derv.comno]
but the syntax is incorrect.
Could you tell me if what I am attempting is actually possible, and if so, point me in the right direction regarding the syntax!
Thanks

Can somebody please help me with the implementation of a logic in round off to the left of a decimal point.
Something like this in excel "=ROUND(x/12*31%,-2)" is to be implemented in SSIS. The Round function in the derived column is not permitting -2 for the length parameter. Please help
Value x Excel SSIS
627900 16200 16221
187000 4800 4831
277760 7200 7175
763000 19700 19711
1387500 35800 35844
1465200 37900 37851
2725000 70400 70396
292800 7600 7564
317200 8200 8194
The table lists the values for X in the formula and the respective result calculated by Excel. I would want SSIS to give the same results like excel is giving. Please help me to make it work.

I'm having trouble coming up with a valid expression in my derived column transformation editor that tests the input column for NULL and responds something like this:
if[message] isNull then "NA" else [message]

My derived column transformation with a user variable expression displays the user variable's default and not its assignned value.
Background: I built a script component that seems to effectively assign a new value to a user variable. I use local variables within the component, make the assignment in the PostExecute subroutine, and check by writing the user variable to a messagebox there.
In the derived column transformation I create a new column and insert the user variable in its expression field, add a data viewer, and send it to a data destination. The data viewer shows the user variable default and not the assignned value.
I replaced the user variable with a system variable in the expression field and that works fine.
Have folks successfully used this scenario before? Any ideas? Thanks.

Hi All
I've got a flatfile which contains a column SALEDATE with this data
20070802
''
20070804
''
20070805
20070901
I've got a table with a column SALEDATE datetime.
I use a derived column with this expression
SALEDATE <add as new column> (DT_DBDATE)(SUBSTRING(SaleDate,1,4) + "-" + SUBSTRING(SaleDate,5,2) + "-" + SUBSTRING(SaleDate,7,2)) database date [DT_DBDATE]
This expression fails whenever it comes across a blank field.
How can evaluate my expression to insert a null if it comes across a blank field?
Thank You

I am trying to pass a variable set by a Row count transformation to a derived column transformation. There are actually three separate Row Count transformations storing to different variables. In the derived column trans. the expression i am using is @[User::ClientCount] and the variable type is Int32 and I am passing it to an I4 database column. After the derived column trans. all rows just come out with 0s in the row count columns. Does anyone know why this would be? Please let me know if you need more information.

I'm importing a csv-file delimited with semicolons. Firstly I LTRIM the columns "in place" and the data imports fine. All the numbers in right columns in the target table. Then I add another Derived Colum Transformation to replace decimal character comma (,) to a dot (.) in order to convert the string/varchar value to numeric. But here I run into trouble. Running the task ends in success but the result in the target table (same as above) is not. All the commas are now dots as expected but what is worse is that SSIS have added values in cells that should not be there. I get values in cells that shoud be empty!
Shortly: Only LTRIM([Column1]) as expression and "Derived Column" as Replace 'Column1' works OK.
But adding REPLACE-expression (i.e REPLACE(LTRIM([Column1]) , "," , ".") to this breaks things up
I'm aware that I could do this with SQL but this is not the point...
Any ideas?

Hi
I'm a relative SQL Server newbee and have developed a function that converts mm/dd/yyyy to yyy/mm/dd for use as in a DT_DBDATE format for insert into a column with smalldatatime.
I receive the following erros when using the function in the Derived Column Transformation Editor. First, the function, then the error when using it as the expression Derived Column Transformation Editor.
Can anyone explain how I can do this transformation work in this context or suggest a way either do the transformation easier or avoid it altogerher?

Two questions regarding Derived Columns in SSIS
1. In a if else expression if condition is false how do you keep the value of the source column eg: Name == "" ? "Unknown" : Name
Above will change all the non blank values to Name and not the actual value
in the Name Column eg. John
2. I have a column (unicode string)that stores date and time (The source is flat file) Is it possible to write expression to select the 1st day of month based on that date, and use this derived column as input to a table with a datetime field.

Hi,
I apologize if this question has already asked (I already looked in this forum but do not find the answer), I need to have this done as soon as possible. I've following data:
column1 column2 begin_date active
------------- ------------ ---------------- -----------
1253 1057 1/1/2006 0
1253 1057 1/1/2007 0
1253 1057 4/1/2007 0
1253 1057 7/1/2007 1
I need to have the final result as following: (the new end_date column is the value of the begin_date in the next row -1)
column1 column2 begin_date active end_date
------------- ------------ ---------------- -------- ------------------
1253 1057 1/1/2006 0 12/31/2006
1253 1057 1/1/2007 0 3/31/2007
1253 1057 4/1/2007 0 6/30/2007
1253 1057 7/1/2007 1 null
Any ideas?
Thank you!

I need to check if the date is Null then use today's date and if not do something else.
If RowModifiedOn IS NULL Then
GETUTCDATE()
ELSE
DATEADD("Hh",@[User::TimeZone],RowModifiedOn)
End If
What do I do wrong here? Can I do something like it?
RowModifiedOn == NULL ? GETUTCDATE() : DATEADD("Hh",@[User::TimeZone],RowModifiedOn)
Thanks.

How would one add this as a derived column
CASE
WHEN Data IS NULL
THEN NULL
WHEN SUBSTRING(REPLICATE('0', 9 - LEN(Data)) + CAST(CYCLE_YYYYMM AS VARCHAR(9)), 4, 6) IS NULL
THEN 0
ELSE RTRIM(SUBSTRING(REPLICATE('0', 9 - LEN(Data)) + CAST(Data AS VARCHAR(9)), 4, 6))
END
From what I have seen the first option is not really required

Hi,
I am trying to upload a csv file into a destination SQL Server table using Data FLow objects in MS SQL Server 2005 SSIS. My destination table X has a date column while my source data file (for which i have a flat file connection) does not have a date column. I created a Derived column for date using the system date function in my Source data object and ran the package but it returned errors. I changed the data type of the derived column but I still get errors.
is there any other way i can get the date on the fly i.e generate a date for the incoming source file and map that (insert into) to the destination table ?
Thanks.
