I want to update @Stop.UserField with thevalue from @UpdateSource where @UpdateSource.HasPathway=@Stop.UserField...but I need to use the @FieldDescription table to determine how to map the columns.
I’ve got a situation where the columns in a table we’re grabbing from a source database keep changing as we need more information from that database. As new columns are added to the source table, I would like to dynamically look for those new columns and add them to our local database’s schema if new ones exist. We’re dropping and creating our target db table each time right now based on a pre-defined known schema, but what we really want is to drop and recreate it based on a dynamic schema, and then import all of the records from the source table to ours.It looks like a starting point might be EXEC sp_columns_rowset 'tablename' and then creating some kind of dynamic SQL statement based on that. However, I'm hoping someone might have a resource that already handles this that they might be able to steer me towards.Sincerely, Bryan Ax
I am stuck on finding a solution to transpose source data from a system via a metadata look-up table into a destination table. I need a method to transpose/pivot the source data into columns (which are by various data-types). The datatypes for each column are listed in a metadata table.
Source Data Table:
Table Name: Source
SrcID AGE City Date 01 32 London 01-01-2013 02 35 Lagos 02-01-2013 03 36 NY 03-01-2013
Metadata Table:
Table Name:Metadata
MetaID Column_Name Column_type 11 AGE col_integer 22 City col_character 33 Date col_date
Destination table:
The source data to be loaded into the destination table(as shown below):
I am new in SSIS. Anyone know how to valify number of record that I load from csv file to SQL database table?
For example, the source file call product.csv and target table in database named DSS table name PRODUCT. I load data from flat file to table then I need verification if count between source and target not match send e-mail to me.
I am having a problem on updating data in DB2 target table.
I followed BJ Custard's (http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=1058272&SiteID=1&mode=1)(thanks amillion!) post and configured OLEDB destination to insert data. But I have to also update or delete data from the target table based on flag from source.
I tried using OLEDB command which uses the OLEDB connection created by following the steps posted in above link.
Trail 1real requirement): When I used the SQL query:
delete from table where Col1=? and Col2=?
I am unable to map to the parameters. When I click refresh button after writing the query, I get "There is a data source column with no name. Each data source column must have a name." message. Added to before message, there are no parameters to map to.
Trail 2: When I hard code the parameters :
delete from table1 where Col1='abc' and Col2='xyz'
no parameters will come up, so no mapping. So when I execute the mapping I get the following error:
Error: 0xC0202009 at Load .....................................................: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_OLEDBERROR. An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80040E00. Lookup on above error codes show those are related more to target Db2 database.
I am sure some one might have used the OLEDB command task, not only just insert task.
Take a Dataflow Task, with an OLEDB Source Component and an OLEDB Destination Component in it. The Source component's Source is stored in a SQLQuery variable, and the Destination component's Destination is stored in a TableName variable. The Dataflow Task is put into an For Loop container.
I just want to do one thing:
In the For Loop, everytime it send a new value to the SQLQuery variable and the TableName variable, then I could use it to transfer many tables in a same logic.
My question is: Really, I could send new values to the variables and make it go. But everytime it says "The external metadata column collection is out of synchronization with the data source columns." Because the external metadata was recorded and not be change automatically everytime of Loop.
How to update the source columns'metadata automatically?
Hi... I was hoping if someone could share me some thoughts with the issue that I am having at the moment.
Problem: When I run the package in my local machine and update local SS DB/table - new records writes OK in the table. BUT when I changed my destination meaning write record into another physical SS DB/table there is no INSERT data occurs. AND SO when I move/copy over that same package into another server (e.g. server that do not write record earlier) and run it locally IT WORKS fine too.
What I am trying to do is very simple - Add new records in a SS table using SSIS . I only care for new rows and not even changed rows. Here is my logic - 1. Create Ole DB source to RemoteSERVER - using SELECT stmt 2. I have LoopUp component that will look for NEW records - Directs all rows that don't find match and redirect rows (error output). 3. Since I don't care for any rows that is matched in my lookup - I do nothing or I trash the rows 4. I send the error rows (NEW rows) into OleDB destination
RESULTS when I run the package locally and destination table is also local - WORKS FINE; But when I run the package locally and destination table is in another Sserver (remote) - now rows is written.
The package is run thru BIDS manually so there is no sucurity restrictions attached to it.
I am not sure what I am missing. And I do not see error in my package either. It is not failing.
I've had little success gooling/searching for this (so far).
Given a simple spreadsheet:
StoreNumber StoreName
1 UPDStoreName_1
2 UPDStoreName_2
3 UPDStoreName_3
4 NEWStoreName_4
I want to have an SSIS package that will update a table: mystores (storenumber int, storename nvarchar(255))
StoreNumber StoreName
1 StoreName_1
2 StoreName_2
3 StoreName_3
5 StoreName_5
.. what I need to do is insert the new, update the existing and leave the remaining unchanged. i.e. :
StoreNumber StoreName
1 UPDStoreName_1
2 UPDStoreName_2
3 UPDStoreName_3
4 NEWStoreName_4
5 StoreName_5
(the UPD and NEW are added to simplify the example).
Now the default action of an excel source into an ole db destination is an insert into the table - so PK constraints causes failures.
Now, given that the table is referred to by other table, and is in a 24x7 website, how do I change the SSIS package such that, on a row-by-row basis, anUpSert (update or insert) is performed?
The only idea I have so far is:
create temp table
insert excel data into temp table
iterate through the table, using if exists ... update else insert logic <-- this to be done in a SP
I'm trying to work out how to update a table from a flat file source.
I could use the simple way of using OLE DB Command with
UPDATE <tblName> SET Column1 = ?, Column2 = ?, <etc> WHERE ID = ?
then using the mapping to join the parameter fields.
However, this (maybe!) a slow process when you have potential 500k+ records in the source file (and approx 150 files to process!)
What I would like to do is the following statement but I'm not sure if this is possible?
UPDATE <tblName> SET Column1 = sourceColumn1, Column2 = sourceColumn1, <etc> FROM <sourcefile> WHERE ID = sourceID
I've also thought about importing the sourcefile into a Recordset Destination and trying to use the variable in the SQLCommand but I'm not sure how to do this...
Does anybody have any ideas on how this could work or an alternative solution?
I have a got a package with source as sql table which has got 50 columns. We are using only 10 columns out of this. Recently one column name has changed and thus throws error invalid mapping. When I open the source to do the changes noticed that all the colums are prselected now and also the datatypes got changed to default ( I had changed the datatypes as per my requirement while i developed). So now I had to select required columns from source and redo the datatype changes in advanced editor.Is there any option which doesnt disturb this settings and we just need to correct the mapping alone.Â
Is there a way to add or update the column or table (using the extended properties) description metadata via T-SQL (from within a stored procedure) or via a program (such as VB.NET using ADO)?
These metadata properties are available via the SSMS interface: Columns via the Column Properties/Table Designer/Description Tables via the Table Properties/Extended Properties/[Extended Property Name]
I want to replicate a database to a subscriber that will be used as a readonly copy. The data has to be replicated as close to instantly as possible.To do this I set up a database export of objects and data to populate thesubscriber, then I set up transactional replication. To verify thatreplication is working successfully, I count the rows in each table, thereare 3 tables in total. For one of the tables, the replication completes butalmost immediately afterward, the table starts to shrink, and after severalhours the record count is zero. This isn't happening to the other twotables, and I can't figure out why.If you have no idea what might be causing this, perhaps you can suggestsome places to start looking. This is Win2k SP4 with SQL 2000 SP3.Thanks much.
We need to pull from a table that is named tablename_mmddyy and populate a table with the same format tablename_mmddyy. The date will be different every month so I want to be able to build the tablenames every month. Is there a way to do this in SSIS? Thank you.
Control Flow Load Data Flow Task to Copy Data Flow Task to Scrip Task
Data Flow under Load Data Flow Task has Flat File Source to Row Count1 to OLE DB Destination (ODS database) Variable name for Row Count1 is RowCount
Data Flow under Copy Data Flow Task has OLE DB Source to RowCount2 to OLE DB Destination (WIMS database) Variable name for Row Count2 is RowNumber
Data Flow under Script Task is code:

We want to verify flat file count should be same as the data load to WIMS database. Now if I run this job I get the error message: Error: Failed to lock variable "RowCount" for read access with error 0xC0010001 "The variable cannot be found. This occurs when an attempt is made to retrieve a variable from the Variables collection on a container during execution of the package, and the variable is not there. The variable name may have changed or the variable is not being created.".
My co-work said even I get balance from RowCount1 and Rowcount2 still need to have query from table in Wims database because for SQL server sometimes process counts not same as the data results load in table so need select count(*) from table. How and where I can put at the job.
My design is row count from flat file put one variable then row count from final table put the other variable then send e-mail to me show both variable for testing. For real job I need if both variables same ok else send me an e-mail.
we have a table in our ERP database and we copy data from this table into another "stage"Â table on a nightly basis. is there a way to dynamically alter the schema of the stage table when the source table's structure is changed? in other words, if a new column is added to the source table, i would like to add the column to the stage table during the nightly refresh.
I am having one store procedure which use to load data from flat file to staging table dynamically.everything is working fine. staging_temp table have single column.all the data stored in that single column below is the sample row.
after the staging_temp data gets inserted into main table.my probelm is to handle such a file where number of columns are more than the actual table.if you see the sample rows there are 4 column separated by "¯".but actual I am having only 3 columns in my main table.so how can I get only first 3 column from the satging_temp table.output should be like below.
I have a transaction table having about 40 crore rows in source. It don't have timestamp and unique key columns. It have only Bill_month and Bill_Year columns. Actually for loading this table into staging I have added a new datetime column by adding default bill_date as 01. Then
* First we delete last 3 month data from staging tables. * Get last 3 months data from source table. * Load that 3 months data from source to staging table.Â
We do this because we only get update for last three months data. Now I have to include this transaction table as Fact table in DW. What will be the best practice for loading the fact table by picking data form staging table. Also we have to look up with dimensions for Foreign Keys.Â
* Should I implement the same method of deleting last 3 months records and loading them again.Â
I am trying to insert new records into the target table, if no records exist in the source table. I am passing user specific values for insert, but it does not insert any values, nor does it throw any errors. The insert needs to occur in the LOAN_GROUP_INFO table, i.e. the target table.
MERGE INTO LOAN_GROUP_INFO AS TARGET USING (SELECT LGI_GROUPID FROM LOAN_GROUPING WHERE LG_LOANID = 22720 AND LG_ISACTIVE = 1) AS SOURCE
I just opened a large table with about 800 columns and 300,000 rows. Doing the right click open on table displays message: Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation. Please help me determin what the error is and how to solve it. I have google it for days now and no one has similar situation as mine. Many have same error, but their fix is not relevant to my issue. If you know about some SQL query limit please let me know. Funny thing is that if I right click table and do script ---> select, then it does pull the data. ONly doesn't work when I do "Open Table."
Hi,I have table with three columns as belowtable name:expNo(int) name(char) refno(int)I have data as belowNo name refno1 a2 b3 cI need to update the refno with no values I write a query as belowupdate exp set refno=(select no from exp)when i run the query i got error asSubquery returned more than 1 value. This is not permitted when thesubquery follows =, !=, <, <= , >, >= or when the subquery is used asan expression.I need to update one colum with other column value.What is the correct query for this ?Thanks,Mani
Is there anyone know if a simple SSIS package (moving data from source table to target table) or task can be called repeatedly using a variable that obtains value once a time from a metadata table containing only table names. Basically, I would like to pass in a table variable to the SSIS package or task to start the ETL for different tables. Thanks a lot!
I am new to use MERGE statement. The MERGE cannot find any match Cardnumber in the target table.  It inserts row into an existing row on the target table causing SQL rejected with duplicate key not allowed. The CardNumber is defined as a primary key on the target table with no duplicate allowed. Below snippet stop when MERGE insert a row exists on the target. The source table contains multiple rows with the same Cardnumber because it is a transactional table with multiple redemptions.Â
If MERGE cannot handle many (source) to one (target) relationship, what other method that I can change to in order to update the target GiftCard table which keeps track of gift card balance?Â
Below is the error message:
Msg 2627, Level 14, State 1, Line 5 Violation of PRIMARY KEY constraint 'PK_GiftCard'. Cannot insert duplicate key in object 'dbo.GiftCard'. The duplicate key value is (63027768).
