Variable To Hold Two Digit Month In A Expression
Mar 27, 2007
I'm using a file Task to rename files to include a Month and Year in the FIle. Part of the requirement in the file name is a two digit month. I have the following query built which will return a two digit month regardless if it's a one or two digit month.
SELECT REPLACE(STR(MONTH(DATEADD("Month", -1,GETDATE())), 2), ' ', '0')
This works perfect when running in T-SQL, but when attempting to define a variable in the expression
REPLACE(STR(MONTH(DATEADD("Month", -1,GETDATE())), 2), ' ', '0') expression keeps failing the evaluation?
Anyone run into a simliar issue or have a suggested work around?

I am sure this will be an easy one for you pros, but I am having a case of the Mondays. I am trying to retrieve a date in the format 2007.01.01. In trying to do this I either end up with 1 or null when trying to create the 01 part. Below is some test code for the month portion.
DECLARE @Tst CHAR(4)
DECLARE @tst1 CHAR(2)
SET @tst = DATEPART(Month, '1/1/2008')
SET @tst1 = '00'
--SET @tst = right(@tst1 + @tst, 2)
Select @tst, @tst1, @tst1 + @tst, right(@tst +tst, 2)
Result Set:
1 00 001 [blank]
What am I doing wrong here?
TIA

I want to build a string that contains today's date (without the time).
For example, if select GETDATE() returns 2008-04-28 14:18:34.180, I want to end up with either
(1) 2008-04-28
or
(2) 20080428. (I always want the month to be represented by a 2 digit number)
Is there a datepart parameter that will give me (1) in one shot? I don't think so, since datepart returns an integer and (1) is not in the form of an integer.
So, I was trying to build (2) by using the yyyy, mm, and dd parameters to extract out the appropriate parts and casting them to a string and contatentating them. However, when I do the month portion, (using mm) it gives me the integer that represents the month, and this number can be 1 or 2 digits depending on the month. I always want it to be a 2 digit number. For example, if I'm in Apr, I want to end up with "04", not "4". This would also apply to the day portion. (although the date that I'm writing this post is on the 28th so I'm not certain what GETDATE() will return on dates that are 1 digit.)
The only way I can get the single digit month to write out as a 2 digit month is by doing a LEN() function on the string and if it is a length 1, then concatenate a "0" in front of it. I started doing this and the expression became too crazy, so I wanted to first check to see if someone can come up with something cleaner.
Thanks for looking.

I am retrieving the current month and setting a variable accordingly.
Code:
DECLARE @currMonthNum INT
SET @currMonthNum = DATEPART(MM, GETDATE())
My challenge is that at a later point I want to use the @currMonthNum value to 'build' a date in the style yyyymmdd and the variable is only one digit for the months January to September (e.g.: 1 to 9). For the months January to September I need to pad the variable with an extra zero (e.g.: 01 to 09).
Here is my attempt to do this...!
Code:
IF @currMonthNum IN (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9)
SET @currMonthNum = '0' + CAST(@currMonthNum AS nvarchar)
Unfortunately this does not give the desired result of two digits, however ironically if I add a + '0' to the end I get 10 to 90! It is like the 0 at the front is simply being ignored.
I have also tried setting the @currMonthNum variable to an nvarchar type before performing the character addition as well attempting to use the CONCAT command (however I don't think that CONCAT can be used when setting a variable).
how to display a zero in front of the months that require it?

How do I use a @variable to hold on value return from an exec ('string command') statement.
Example for:
declare @OldID int
declare @cmd varchar(255)
declare @db varchar(25)
declare @OldOwner varchar(25)
set @db = 'DBNAME'
set @OldOwner = 'USERNAME'
select @cmd = 'select uid from ' + ltrim(rtrim(@db))'..sysusers where name = ' + "'" + ltrim(rtrim(@OldOwner)) + "'"
exec (@cmd)
How can I use @OldID to hold on UID return from this statement.
When I try use:
select @cmd = 'select @OldID = uid from ' + ltrim(rtrim(@db))'..sysusers where name = ' + "'" + ltrim(rtrim(@OldOwner)) + "'"
then I'm getting a error message: @OldID not declare.
Thanks.

I'm using CTEs to try and get the totals of two different criteria queries that I want to group by Month depending on the associated Inquiry Date. Here is what I have right now;
Code:
;With CTE(total, InitDate) as
(
SELECT count(Inquiry.ID), Inquiry.Date from Inquiry
Inner Join Inquirer on Inquirer.ID = Inquiry.InquirerID_fk
Left Join Transfer on Transfer.TransferInquiryID_fk = Inquiry.ID
WHERE (Inquiry.Date >= '3/1/2012' AND Inquiry.Date <= '9/26/2012' AND Inquiry.Date IS NOT NULL)
AND (Inquirer.Program = 'Res. Referral Coord.')AND TransferInquiryID_fk IS NULL
Group By Inquiry.Date
[code]...
I get 170 for InitCount, but for TransCount I only get 19, not 26. I assume it is with my left outer join statement grouping but I am not sure how I would change this to get the proper counts. All I want to do is group the values together depending on the month they were done in.

I am using the following expression to place the month in the heading of a column.
=MonthName(Month(DateAdd("M",-1,Now)))
The expression above gives me the previous month, but I need to have it as "Jan", not "January".
expression that will give me the three character month name instead of the full month. I've tried substituting the "M" with "MMM", but get an error. I've also tried "Mon", but again, I
get an error.

Hello,
I have a DateTime variable called CurrentDate that needs to reflect the current date, but the date portion only. I checked several functions in the Expression Builder to use with GETDATE() so that I could just get the date portion, but I didn't see anything that really fit. In a SQL query I would normally use CONVERT to do this.
Any ideas?
Thank you for your help!

Hi all of you,
That's an easy one. I've got a Send Mail task which might send a message in plain text along with a SSIS variable.
Something like that:
'La tabla "' + SUBSTRING( @[System:ackageName], 3,20) + "' se ha cargado correctamente'
TIA for that,

Hi
I have some SSIS variables of type System.Object (they have to be this
type because they are used to hold the results of a single row result
set in an Execute SQL task which is querying an Oracle database.
Although I know the Oracle table columns are Numeric, this was the only
SSIS type that worked).
My problem is that I want to use these variables in expressions, but
can't - I get the error "The data type of variable "User::varObjectVar"
is not supported in an expression".
The only workaround I can think of is to use a script to assign
the numeric values (integers, in fact) that these variables hold to
other variables of type Int32.
Is that my only option, or am I missing something?
thanks
- Jerzy

I have been successful using comments (to help remind me that the SQL is coming from a varaible which is set via an expresion) within the variable expression passed to a Source or Destination. I have been unable to get this to work in an ExecuteSQL control flow task when parameters are used within the query. I am not sure what is causing this not to work the fact that it is an ExecuteSQL control flow task or that the SQL has parameters (or perhaps that it also uses an OUTPUT parameter).
Any thoughts to share? Am I missing something?

I'm trying to do something very simple, and having a tough time with it.
I've got a Global Variable that gets a string value assigned to it in a Script Task, and then I need to access that value in Execute Process Task Expression. When running, by the time it gets to the Process Task, the global variable's value in the expression is still blank, even though a breakpoint on the task shows that it does have a value.
What am I doing wrong? This seems too simple to give me this much problem.

Greetings my SSIS friends
I am attempting to create an expression as follows:
"Select * from someTable where someColumn >= " + (dt_str, 25, 1252) @[User::DateTimeVariable]
The problem is that my variable is a Datetime field and when I convert it to string, the string will not execute correctly.
How to solve this problem?

First and foremost, I'm officially and thoroughly confused between Variable, Expression and settings. I need help clearify this up for me.
I'm going to use the Flat File Connection as an example.
I have:
> A global variable named: FileToImportFullPath (string) that stores the full path of the file I want to import. Note: the file path will change has the package executes (the location of the file depends on a number of conditions, namely the Date and Time of the package execution)
> A Flat File Connection Manager used by a Flat File source in the package's main Data Flow
So ideally, I want the Flat File Connection Manager's ConnectionString to be set to whatever the value of FileToImportFullPath variable is at the time. To accomplish this, I set the ConnectionString Expression to equal to FileToImportFullPath. First question, if I set the ConnectionString Expression, is it okay for me to leave the ConnectionString property (i.e. in the Editor or the Property Editor) blank? Second, whenever I leave the ConnectionString property blank, I will get a warning stating: "A valid file name must be selected". Since this is a warning, I ignored, but during exeuction, the value really is blank. Also, I'm 100% certain that the FileToImportFullPath variable is set correctly before the Data Flow step is executed.
All in all, I'm just confused if an object's property must be set if there is already an express for it (e.g., in the file move task, the source and the destination properties).
Thanks,
Jason

i have a monthly production script that requires two forms of the prior month's date.'yyyymm' or '201411' and 'yyyy-mm-dd' or '2014-11-01'. The second date must have a day value of '1'. I have to use these date values in my script a half dozen times. Ive tried to declare two variables to accomodate but i can not get them correct.
I can execute the following:
SELECT LEFT(CONVERT(varchar, DATEADD(MONTH,-1,GetDate()),112),6)
---------------------------
201411
When I try this as a declared variable:
DECLARE @RPT_DTA VARCHAR
SET @RPT_DTA = CONVERT(varchar, DATEADD(MONTH,-1,GetDate()),112)
SELECT @RPT_DTA
--------------------------
2
DECLARE @RPT_DTB VARCHAR
SET @RPT_DTB = DATEPART(YEAR,DATEADD(MONTH,-1,GetDate())) + DATEPART(month,DATEADD(MONTH,-1,GetDate()))
SELECT @RPT_DTB
-----------------------------

I have created a variable in a SQL Task and assigned it to a string variable. When I debug the container with a breakpoint, I can see the correct date value being assigned to the variable.
I have an ADO Net source setup to an Oracle connection. I need to pull the Oracle data down that has an updated date greater than the updated date in my ODS.
My issue is that the variable is not being passed through to my expression that I use for an ADO Net source.
"SELECT * FROM BI_EDW.GL_JE_HEADERS WHERE LAST_UPDATE_DATE > To_Date('" + (DT_WSTR, 19) @[User::varLastUpdateDate] + "','yyyy-mm-dd hh24:mi:ss')"

I have tried with this thing for hours and I can't get it to parse.
Trying to get last year so the expression should evaluate today as of "12/31/2014"
I looked all over on Google and couldn't find an expression to copy so I've been playing with it.
Here is what it is in SQL Server:
SELECT DATEADD(dd,-1,DATEADD(yy, DATEDIFF(yy,0,GETDATE()),0))
Absolutely could not get it to parse..even with DT tags, etc...

Greetings once again SQL friends,
Sorry to bug you with my silly questions but this little problem has been driving me crazy for the last hour or so!
I am attempting to change the data type of a variable in an expression but I keep getting an error saying that the expression can not be evaluated.
The syntax I am using is as follows :
(dt_str) @[User::MAX_OFFER_PRICE_ID]
My variable MAX_OFFER_PRICE_ID is type int32 and I am attempting to cast it as a string.
What am I doing wrong?!
Thanks for your help in advance.

I have an integer variable which i had to cast as a string in order for it to show as an integer in the sql expression which is a string in order for it to INSERT as an integer? Read that 5 times fast!!!
"INSERT INTO Table( SourceFileName, ProcessStartTime, ProcessEndTime, Processed, RowCountFlatFile, RowCountCleanInsert, RowCountDataConversionErrors, RowCountPKViolation, RowCountDuplicateInvoiceIDInSourceFile, RowCountISNULLCase1, RowCountISNULLCase2, RowCountConditionalSplit)
VALUES( '"+ @[User:aymentFileName] +"',
'"+ (DT_STR, 20, 1252)@[System:tartTime]+ "',
'"+ (DT_STR, 20, 1252)@[System:tartTime]+ "',
1,
"+(DT_STR, 4, 1252)@[User::rcSourceFile]+",
"+(DT_STR, 4, 1252)@[User::rcCleanInserts]+",
"+(DT_STR, 4, 1252)@[User::rcDataConversionErrors]+",

"+(DT_STR, 4, 1252)@[User::rcISNULLCase2] +",
"+(DT_STR, 4, 1252)@[User::rcConditionalSplitErrors]+"
)"
all the variable beginning with rc are Int32 variables being loaded using the Row Count task. they are being inserted into an integer field in the table. Is this whack or what???
I was trying to cast is using DT_I4 but couldn't find any samples nor could I get it to work. The above is successful!!!

I have one package that executes 4 child packages (5 total). All 5 packages are set to log information using a connection string with a variable set at runtime for the location. The child packages use a parent variable to get the log connection string from the parent package.
The parent package logs fine, but a strange behavior occurs with the child packages.
The child packages all log data to the location used in the configuration file variable during runtime (like it's supposed to). However, I would get an error right before the first child package finishes execution saying path not found. Just for giggles, I created the folder I use in my development environment on the production environment. The error goes away, but the log file is created in that folder with no data in it. Subsequently, the log file with the data is created in the location set in the configuration file. Now I have two log files!!!!
Anybody know how to fix this?!

Hi
We have set up an SSIS package which goes to an FTP site and downloads files.
Everything is fine... EXCEPT (lol) when there are no files to download. This then fails the task.
However, I want the package to continue to run.
Is there away of assigning the error message given to an expression and then using the expression in the precedence contraint?
thanking you in advance
David

I have been using SSIS for a while now, originally in SQL 2008 but more lately SQL 2012.
I discovered the GETDATE() function in SSIS so I thought I would use this in a variable expression in a Master/Driver package with the child parameters mapped to this variable. A big mistake. The value is not persisted, it gets updated each time the variable is read, so it's back to setting the variable value using a script task in the Master/Driver package.

I have created a heat map and it is working pretty well. The only issue I am having is that the expression for the fill is using "DataSet1"
=Code.GetHeatmapColor(sum(Fields!AnnualPremium.Value),Min(Fields!AnnualPremium.Value,"DataSet1",Recursive),
Max(Fields!AnnualPremium.Value,"DataSet1",Recursive))
This is making the heatmap look at the whole dataset instead of just what I am grouping by. Within the Dataset there are Regions and Credit Unions. Since the Dataset is looking at an entire region, the heatmap is coloring based on all data for the region. I need to heatmap to color based on the Credit Unions in that region. The Credit Unions are a group. I need the group to be the value it is referencing in the heat map and not "DataSet1". I have been told to use scope or a variable but cannot get it to work correctly.

Has anyone encountered this before?
My colleague opens up an SSIS package with variables, many of which use expressions built with the Expression Builder. She cannot bring up the Expression Builder by clicking the ellipsis (...) in the "Expression" Property of the Property Window, regardless of whether "EvaluateAsExpression" is set to True or False.
I can open up this same package and use the Expression Builder just fine. Any ideas?
Apologies if this has been answered already, I did many searches to try to find the solution before posting here.
Thanks much!
