Help In Derived Column Transformation
Nov 3, 2007Hi 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

Help Me With Derived Column Transformation
Mar 14, 2007I 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 ?
Derived Column Transformation
Sep 20, 2007Hello.
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.

Derived Column Transformation Editor
May 8, 2008Greetings, 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.
Change Value Using A Derived Column Transformation
May 7, 2008I 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?

Error On Derived Column Transformation
May 20, 2008
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,

Derived Column Transformation Expression
Mar 7, 2006Hi.
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
SSIS - Derived Column Transformation
Feb 7, 2008Hello 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

Using User Variables In Derived Column Transformation
Apr 24, 2006My 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.

Importing Dates Using Derived Column Transformation
Aug 6, 2007Hi All
I've got a flatfile which contains a column SALEDATE with this data
20070802
''

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

Passing Variable To Derived Column Transformation
May 11, 2007I 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.
View 3 Replies View RelatedIs Possible To Call A VB.NET Function Within Derived Transformation Editor
Mar 5, 2008Hi,
In a nut shell I want to be able to instruction some Data Analysts on how to modify SSIS packages using the simpliest solutions possible. This is because there are many different data sources and some of these data sources have a huge number of fields, and yes you guessed it these data sources are subject to change on a regular basis.
A very common task they will need to do is to modify an SSIS package to do a to transform of a source date string format of "YYYYMMDD" into a date data type field within a table.
Similar threads have advised the use of the Data Flow Transformations->Derived Column for this sort of thing.
So within the Expression Text box I have inserted the following SSIS compatible SQL to convert the above string into a british format date data type; -
Code Snippet
(SUBSTRING(DOB_SRC,8,2) + "/" + SUBSTRING(DOB_SRC,5,2) + "/" + SUBSTRING(DOB_SRC,1,4))
But really what I want to be able to do is to instruct the Data Analysts to do is something like; -
ConvertTextToDate(DOB_SRC)
Where I previously defined that behaviour of ConvertTextToDate as a public VB.NET function.
Can someone please help. I'm pretty certain I'm not the only one with this type of requirement.
Thanks in advance,
Kieran.

Major Problem With REPLACE-expression In The Derived Column Transformation
Apr 26, 2006I'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?

Ho Do I Get The Details From A DTS Transform Data Task Into An SSIS Derived Column Transformation?
Mar 7, 2008i 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

Cast/Convert Mmddyy In String To New DB_DATETIMESTAMP Column In Derived Column Transformation
Mar 5, 2007Hi,
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.

Does A Synchronous Transformation Process All Rows In A Buffer Before Outputting To Next Transformation?
Jun 5, 2006Hi,
If you have two synchronous transformation components and the input of the second is connected to the output of the first, does the first transformation process (loop through) all rows in the buffer before outputting these rows to the second transformation? Or does the first transformation output each individual row to the second transormation as soon as it has finished processing it?
Thanks in advance,
Lawrie.

Derived Column
May 6, 2008Hi, wondering if anyone can help me. I currently have a field that has a date and time in it in the format dd/mm/yyyy hh:mm:ss. Ideally I would like to get rid of the time part of it altogether but for it to still be recognised as a date as opposed to a string. However, I've been told that this is not possible in 2005, is this true? If this is the case, what would be the best way to set the time to 00:00:00 after the date for all records on that field?
