I am new to SSIS.I am doing a left outer jon using the merge join.The output was wrong.I realised that may be we have to trim the key values.But when i do the trim in the derived column,the output of the derived columns shows that issorted is becoming false and the sort key position has become 0.So the merge join is showing error.How can i solve this error.
I am trying to think my way through a solution which I believe others have probably come across... I am trying to implement a matching routine wherein I need to match an address against a high value and a low value (or, for that matter an input date vs. a start and end date) to return the desired row ... i.e. if I were to use a straight vb program I would just use the following lookup:
" WHERE zip_code = @zip_code AND addr_prim_lo <= @street_number AND addr_prim_hi >= @street_number " & _
" AND addr_prim_oe = @addr_prim_oe AND street_pre = @street_pre AND street_name = @street_name " & _
" AND street_suff = @street_suff AND street_post = @street_post " & _
" AND (expiry_date = '' OR expiry_date = '00000000' OR expiry_date > @expiry_date)" & _
" GROUP BY fire_ID, police_ID, fire_opt_in_out, police_opt_in_out"
My question, then, is how would you perform this type of query using a lookup / merge join or script? I have not found a way to implement a way to set the input columns? I can set the straight matches without a problem, i.e. lookup zip code = input zip code, but can't think of the correct way to set comparisons, i.e. lookup value 1 <= input value AND lookup value 2 >= input value
I have a problem to clean one of the field called Phonenumber in a database, the values have bracket (), - signe and one extra 1 in front of the phone number,etc. For example: 1-800-567-5555 or (770)604-5437. Does anyone have any good way to make it standard so it looks like 800567555 or 7706045437.
I'm trying to use merge data from a staging table to a production table. There are a lot of duplicate values for serverName and I only want to insert one instance where there are duplicates.
How I can adapt the code I have so far to achieve this?
MERGE tblServer AS TARGET USING tblTemp AS SOURCE ON (TARGET.serverName = SOURCE.serverName)
WHEN MATCHED THEN UPDATE SET TARGET.serverName = SOURCE.serverName, TARGET.serverLocation = SOURCE.serverLocation
WHEN NOT MATCHED BY TARGET THEN INSERT (serverName, serverLocation) VALUES (SOURCE.serverName, SOURCE.serverLocation)
I use the merge statement in a sproc to insert, update and delete records from a staging table to a production table.
In the long sql, here is a part of it,
When Matched and
((Student.SchoolID <> esis.SchoolID OR Student.GradeLevel <> esis.GradeLevel OR Student.LegalName <> esis.LegalName OR Student.WithdrawDate <> esis.WithdrawDate Student.SPEDFlag <> esis.SPEDFlag OR Student.MailingAddress <> esis.MailingAddress)
Then update
Set Student.Schoolid=esis.schoolid, .....
My question is how about if the column has null values in it.for example
if schoolID is null in production table is null, but in staging table is not null, will the <> return true.or if either side of <> has a null value, will it return true.
I don't want it to omit some records and causing the students records not get updated.If not return true, how to fix this?
We have a couple of tables that can have quite a bit of data each day prior to replication. Can we increase the default values for a table for each subscription? For example we have a table called table1 and on the sqlexpress client they could enter in 10000 rows a day, on table2 it's just 100 rows a day. How can we increase the values to where we do not get the error for table1 stating that the insert failed because it conflicted with the identity range check constraint. Thanks in advance.
C# .Net Application as front end Sql Server2000 as back end
I need to merge an external dataset from .Net app(in XML format) with the information in database with one column in database table as the merging criteria. A situation similar to Left Outer Join, wherein i need all records from external dataset and if matched in database the corresponding values from there too, the only difference here is that the join is not between two Tables its between a table and external dataset. There is no need to store the external dataset in the database in persistent form, its just a query - merge - response operation.
So, can anyone suggest the best possible solution for this? A table variable / temporary table / some other schema, what and how?
I'm working with merge replication between Sql Server 2005 and Sql Server 2005 Mobile. I'm using dynamic filtering by function HOST_NAME (... where Table.FilteredColumn = HOST_NAME())
When I'm trying to chagne values from filtered column on the client side (Table.FileteredColumn) I get error message that the column is read-only.
How can I change data in filtered column? Is this possible?
How do I pass a single column of values from a successful merge join to an EXECUTE SQL statement so it can be used with an "IN" criteria of the WHERE clause? Here's an example of my update statement with two random key values:
UPDATE dbo.MyTable SET MyStatus = 1 WHERE MyPK IN ("XYZ123", "DEF890")
Is this even possible in SSIS, or am I better off using a loop and running the update EXECUTE SQL Statement for each individual key value, as in the following example?
UPDATE dbo.MyTable SET MyStatus = 1 WHERE MyPK = "XYZ123" UPDATE dbo.MyTable SET MyStatus = 1 WHERE MyPK = "DEF890"
I have database on SQL Server 2000 set up with a merge publication.This publication is configured with a number of dynamic filters toreduce the amount of data sent to each client. Each client has ananonymous pull subscription. The merge process can be triggered by thewindows sync manager and my application.To improve performance I have created some helper tables to hold themapping between user login and primary keys of selected entities.For the replicated data to be correct the contents of the helper tablesneeds to be up to date.I need to fire off a stored procedure on the publisher beforereplication starts to verify that this data is up to date. I can notsee any documented way of doing this however I have been experimentingwith some unorthodox systems.Firstly has anyone any ideas?I have been considering adding a trigger to some of the tables used bythe Microsoft replication code - yes I know this is very nasty.My problems arise because executing this stored procedure will causesome data to be updated. In updating data we could create a newgeneration in the database. I must therefore run my stored procedurebefore any the Microsoft code makes any generation checks / updates.Anyone done anything similar, Anyone have any better ideas?Any comments would be gratefully received.
I'm using merge replication to maintain a backup copy of my main (publisher)MSDE database. A push subscription periodically (1 per minute) updates the backup DB. It's intended that if the main db goes down then the backup (subscription) db can be configured as a publisher. This must all be performed via scripting. The initial configuration of the main publisher and subscription is controlled via scripting, which works fine. The problems occur when I try to configure the subsciber to become a publisher. A script is executed on the subscriber but fails at the point when it's configuring the publisher detail. The error is something like "unable to configure a publication for a database setup as an anonymous subscription". I'm guessing that there are subscritpion artifacts added to the database which need to be removed before it can be configured as a new publisher.
How to count the number of values that exist in a row based on the values from an array of numbers. Basically the the array of numbers I want to look for are in row 1 of table [test 1] and I want to search for them and count the "out of" in table [test 2]. Excuse me for not using the easiest way to convey my question below. I guess in short I have 10 numbers and like to find how many of those numbers exist in each row. short example:
I have a DTSX package which reads values from a fixed-length text file using a data reader and writes some of the column values from the file to an Oracle table. We have used this DTSX several times without incident but recently the process started inserting NULL values for some of the columns when there was a valid value in the source file. If we extract some of the rows from the source file into a smaller file (i.e 10 rows which incorrectly returned NULLs) and run them through the same package they write the correct values to the table, but running the complete file again results in the NULL values error. As well, if we rerun the same file multiple times the incidence of NULL values varies slightly and does not always seem to impact the same rows. I tried outputting data to a log file to see if I can determine what happens and no error messages are returned but it seems to be the case that the NULL values occur after pulling in the data via a Data Reader. Has anyone seen anything like this before or does anyone have a suggestion on how to try and get some additional debugging information around this error?
I am working with a data set containing several years' of monetary values. I have entries for past dates and the associated values, and I also have entries for future dates. I need to populate the values of the future date records with the values from the same date the previous year. Is there any way this can be done in Power Pivot?
I have to use the above comma separated values into a SQL Search query whose datatype is integer. How would i do this Search query in the IN Operator of SQL Server. My query is :
declare @id varchar(50) set @id= '3,4,6,7' set @id=(select replace(@id,'''',''))-- in below select query Id is of Integer datatype select *from ehsservice where id in(@id)
But this query throws following error message:
Conversion failed when converting the varchar value '3,4,6,7' to data type int.
I have my stored procedure set to Territory_code IN (@Territory)
, now , how do i enter in more then one value. When i select the multi value check box, it gives me more spaces. But then doesnt recognize the values when i put in more then one. am i doing something wrong?
I receive the input file with some 100 columns and some 20k+ rows and I want to check the incoming input row is existed in the database or not based on 2 key columns. If the row is existed then I need to check all the columns (nearly 100 columns) values in input and the database are equal or not. If both are equal I need to treat them seperately if not there is a seperate logic. How Can I do that check for each row and for each column?
Basically the algorithm is like this, if the input file row is not existed in the database then treat that as new row else if the input row is existed in the database then check all the columns are equal or not. If all the columns are equal then treat that as existing row and do nothing else if some columns are not equal then treat this row seperately.
I found some thing to achieve the above thing. 1. Take the input row and check in the database. 2. If the row is not found in the database then treat it as new row. 3. If row is found in the database then a) Take the source row and prepare a concatenated string for all the columns b) Take the database row and prepare a concatenated string for all the columns c) Find out the hash code for the 2 strings and then compare hash codes for equal.
The disadvantage of this is running a loop 2*m*n times where m is the number of rows and n is the number of columns. It should be done 2 times for input file row and database row.
Can anybody suggest a good method to do this?
What does the function "GetHashCode" for InputBuffer in method "Public Overrides Sub Input0_ProcessInputRow(ByVal Row As Input0Buffer)" will do? Will it generates hash code based on all the columns values?
I have a situation in SSRS to get the common values between the two columns where the values are sorted comma separated as below.Ex:
ColumnA : abc,cde,efg ColumnB : cde,xyz,abc
the result in
ColumnC : cde,abc
similarly Column A and B will have n number records. I need to right an expression or the Code function to get the required result in ColumnC. I am using SharePoint Lists as Datasource. Cannot write SQL query to achieve this requirement.
I am SSRS user, We have a .net UI from where we want to pass multi select values, but these values are comma separated in the database. how can I write a sql query such that when I select multi values on my UI, the comma separated values are take care of.
I have a script that I use after some amount of data massaging (not shown). I would like to be able to change the
1) denominator value (the value 8 in line 32 of my code) based on how many columns are selected by the where clause:
where left(CapNumber,charindex('_', CapNumber)-1) = 1where capNumber is a value like [1_1], [1_4], [1_6]...[1_9] capNumber can be any values from [1_1]...[14_10] depending upon the specialty value (example: Allergy) and the final number after the equal sign is a number from 1 to 14)
2) I'd like to dynamically determine the series depending upon which values correspond to the specialty and run for each where: left(CapNumber,charindex('_', CapNumber)-1) = n. n is a number between 1 and 14.
3) finally I'd like to dynamically determine the columns in line 31 (4th line from the bottom)
If I do it by hand it's 23 * 14 separate runs to get separate results for each CapNumber series within specialty. The capNumber series is like [1_1], [1_2], [1_3],[1_4], [1_5], [1_6], [1_7], [1_8],[1_9] ... [8_4],[8_7] ... [14_1], [14_2],...[14_10] etc.
Again, the series are usually discontinuous and specific to each specialty.
Here's the portion of the script (it's at the end) that I'm talking about:
--change values in square brackets below for each specialty as needed and change the denom number in the very last query.
if object_id('tempdb..#tempAllergy') is not null drop table #tempAllergy select * into #tempAllergy from dbo.#temp2 T
[Code] ....
If I were to do it manually I'd uncomment each series line in turn and comment the one I just ran.
I need to replace all the "User Friendly Names" with "System Names" in the calculations, i.e., I need "Sales Units" to be replaced with "cSalesUnits", "AUR" replaced with "cAUR", "Comp Sales Units" with "cCompSalesUnits", and "Comp AUR" with "cCompAUR". (It isn't always as easy as removing spaces and added 'c' to the beginning of the string...)
I have created a CTE of all the "Look-up" values, and have tried all kinds of joins, and other functions to achieve this, but so far nothing has quite worked.
How can I accomplish this?
Here is some SQL for set up. There are over 500 formulas that need updating with over 400 different "look up" possibilities, so hard coding something isn't really an option.
I developed the following T-SQL query that runs successfully, but I was looking for a more efficient and concise way to do this. Is there a CTE that can replace all of these case statements? I've updated my query as below. Although this sample query works, it's not working for my real data. Instead, I get an error. At the bottom is the error part of my real query.I copied all of the tables from the first query block below. But when I wrote the bottom query block, it underlined in red the words "answer" and "question." It says "Invalid column name".
if exists (select * from tempdb.dbo.sysobjects o where o.xtype in ('U') and o.id = object_id(N'tempdb..#hard_values') ) DROP TABLE #hard_values; if exists (select * from tempdb.dbo.sysobjects o where o.xtype in ('U') and o.id = object_id(N'tempdb..#dummy_data') ) DROP TABLE #dummy_data; if exists (select * from tempdb.dbo.sysobjects o where o.xtype in ('U') and o.id = object_id(N'tempdb..#temp')
Hi I have one problem in SSIS for passing Variable Values while executing Package. I'm giving in details as below:
I opened Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Made Connection to Integration Services To Execute Package I Right Clicked and Click on Run Package Then I Clicked on Execute and package was executed successfully.
Problem is that if I try to Set Values then Package through Error DTExec: Could not set ProcessMode value to M.
Basically I could not understand in which format I should pass the Variables. What I tried is listed below:
ProcessMode;M Package.Variables[User:rocessMode].Value;M Package.Variables[ProcessMode].Value;M But every time I got errors.
And then I tried from Command Line DTEXEC /DTS "MSDBLoad_Order" /SERVER SERVERNAME /MAXCONCURRENT " -1 " /CHECKPOINTING OFF /REPORTING V /SET Package.Variables[ProcessMode].Value;M
First time Process run successfully. And it has changed the ProcessMode to M also. But after that it was also not changing the ProcessMode Value to M.
Please help in regarding. I tried a lot from Site examples also, but could not get proper solution.

Bitmask fields! I am capturing row changes manually via a high frequency ETL task. It works effectively however i am capturing the movement of multiple fields. A simple example, for Order lines, i have a price, a discount and a date. I am capturing a 001, 010, 100 respectively for each change.
I would like my users to be able to select from a dimension which has the 3 members in it and they can select one, multiples, or all values (i.e. only want to see rows that have had the date and price changed).
Obviously if i only had 3 columns i would use bit's and be done with it, i have many different values (currently around 24 and growing).
