Determine 'having Rowcount(ID) &&>1' After Merge Join?

Aug 6, 2007

I wish to perform different processing for data that has multiple rows after a merge join.

e.g.

table 1 table 2
ID Value ID Value
1 AAA 1 ZZZ
2 DDD 1 QQQ
3 GGG 2 MMM

so this gives (doing a left outer merge join on 'ID')

ID table1value table2value
1 AAA ZZZ
1 AAA QQQ
2 DDD MMM
3 GGG NULL

but what can I do to now strip out ID 1

i.e. HAVING COUNT(ID) >1

?

'Left Outer Merge Join' Failing To Join Valid Row

Aug 10, 2007

Scenario:

OLEDB source 1
SELECT ...
,[MANUAL DCD ID] <-- this column set to sort order = 1
...
FROM [dbo].[XLSDCI] ORDER BY [MANUAL DCD ID] ASC

OLEDB source 2
SELECT ...
,[Bo Tkt Num] <-- this column set to sort order = 1
...
FROM ....[dbo].[FFFenics] ORDER BY [Bo Tkt Num] ASC

These two tasks are followed immediately by a MERGE JOIN

All columns in source1 are ticked, all column in source2 are ticked, join key is shown above.
join type is left outer join (source 1 -> source 2)

result of source1 (..dcd column)
...
4-400-8000119
4-400-8000120
4-400-8000121
4-400-8000122 <--row not joining
4-400-8000123
4-400-8000124
...

result of source2 (..tkt num column)
...
4-400-1000118
4-400-1000119
4-400-1000120
4-400-1000121
4-400-1000122 <--row not joining
4-400-1000123
4-400-1000124
4-400-1000125
...

All other rows are joining as expected.
Why is it failing for this one row?

Merge Join (Full Outer Join) Never Finishes.

Jun 5, 2006

I have a merge join (full outer join) task in a data flow. The left input comes from a flat file source and then a script transformation which does some custom grouping. The right input comes from an oledb source. The script transformation output is asynchronous (SynchronousInputID=0). The left input has many more rows (200,000+) than the right input (2,500). I run it from VS 2005 by right-click/execute on the data flow task. The merge join remains yellow and the task never finishes. I do see a row count above the flat file destination that reaches a certain number and seems to get stuck there. When I test with a smaller file on the left it works OK. Any suggestions?

Super Join - Is Merge Join The Answer?

Nov 7, 2006

Is there a way to do a super-table join ie two table join with no matching criteria? I am pulling in a sheet from XL and joining to a table in SQLServer. The join should read something like ��for every row in the sheet I need that row and a code from a table. 100 rows in the sheet merged with 10 codes from the table = 1000 result rows.

This is the simple sql (no join on the tables):

select 1.code, 2.rowdetail
from tblcodes 1, tblelements 2

But how to do this in SSIS?

Thanks - Ken

Rowcount - Returning Rowcount From SSIS To A Vb.net App Executing The Dtsx Package

Jul 7, 2006

I have a vb.net application that executes a simple flat file to sql table dtsx package. I want to capture the rowcount to display back to the user to verify the number of rows that were inserted or updated to the table. I have a Row Count component placed between the flat file source(without errors) and the destination component. I have assigned a variable named RecordCount to the Row Count component. So far so good I hope : )

Now, I also use a variable to "feed" the package the flat file source. This works fine, but I cannot figure out how to retrieve the row count information and how to assign that to the variable RecordCount.

Also, if anyone has any insight on the way to work with the OnProgress method in SSIS I would appreciate that as well. In SQL 2000 using DTS I create a "PackageEventsSink" that I had found online, and it worked great for monitoring the progress of the DTS. Can't seem to figure out how to get it to work in SSIS.

Thanx,

Mike

SQL LOJ Rowcount &&> SSIS MergeJoin Rowcount. Why?

Jul 25, 2007

In sql I perform the following
SELECT * FROM
xlsdci x LEFT OUTER JOIN fffenics f ON f.[derived deal code] = x.[manual dcd id]

which gives me a row count of 2709 rows

In SSIS I have a merge join component (left outer)
left input = xlsdci with a sort order of 1 ASC on [manual dcd id] (OLE DB source component)
right input = fffenics with a sort order of 1 ASC on [derived deal code] (OLE DB source component)

which when run in the IDE gives me a rowcount of only 2594 rows

Why is this so?

Also if I change the join to INNER in the merge join, the number of rows drops dramatically to only 802.
Fair enough, I hear you cry, maybe there are IDs in the 'xlsdci' table that are not in the 'fffenics' table. Ok. But the following SQL reveals that there are only 14 rows(IDs) in 'xlsdci' that are not in 'fffenics'

SELECT * FROM xlsdci
WHERE [manual dcd id] NOT IN (SELECT [derived deal code] FROM dbo.fffenics)

What is going on here?

Merge Join

May 5, 2006

All,

I need to use Merge Join transformation to join two sources. One is from a PIVOT transformation and one of the output columns is ISSORTED, the other is from an OLE DB Source using a query. The Merge Join transformation requires both input source have to be sorted. I cannot find the ISSORTED property on the OLE DB Source!!
I tried to use Derived/ copy transformations but cannot find the property also. How can set the OLE query sorted in order to use the MergeJoin?

Thanks a lot

Merge Join

Jun 15, 2007

Hello all,

I have a package where I use merge join for two sorted inputs and the output is stored in a raw file.

In another package, the raw file from above package is again merge joined with another sorted input. Now my question is....do we need to sort again the raw file from first package? or is it OK to set the isSorted property to True and define the sort keys?

Thank you.

Merge Join Help

Dec 17, 2007

I am new to this SSIS.
I have a simple join query like this
select a.id from tbl_a a, tbl_b b where a.id = b.id and I want insert the result to my temp table.
the query results is 1500 rows.
but when I use merge join in SSIS, it only inserts to my temp table 4 rows.
I use inner join and I already set the IsSorted to true and specify the sort position for the columns in both source tables
In tbl_a, there are one million rows, in tbl_b, there are 2000 rows.
I don't know why the merge join cannot work out my task.Is there other way that I can just run this simple join query in SSIS to copy the data?
Please help, thanks in advance.

Possibly Merge Join Bug?

Mar 27, 2006

i'm merge joining 2 data sources, one is oracle and the other is excel...the problem is in the oracle source, it's a sql statement like:

select hdr.div_ord_no, hdr.mtr_no, hdr.prod_cd
from qctrl_div_ord_header hdr,
(select max(sub.eff_dt_from) min_eff_dt_from, div_ord_no
from qctrl_div_ord_header sub
group by div_ord_no
) tmp
where hdr.eff_dt_from = tmp.min_eff_dt_from
and hdr.div_ord_no = tmp.div_ord_no

having that sql statement, merging will come out with 0 rows

however, having a simple query like:

select hdr.div_ord_no, hdr.mtr_no, hdr.prod_cd
from qctrl_div_ord_header hdr

merging will come out with 2 rows

you may think that the data in the first sql statement is not there for the merge, which causing the 0 rows, however, the data is there, i'm only joining by one column and definitely the data is there, the merge result should be 2 rows for both query statements

i believe this is a problem with SSIS, anyway around this?

SSIS Merge Join

Mar 6, 2008

I am working on an ssis package and i find an problem while using the merge join for merging 2 OLEDB Data sources .

data source 1 is : - The table formed my an sal server comand , that out put is given to a multicast since i want to sare that output amoung 2o other tables.

So the the left input for the merge join is OLEDB source , which contains direct data from source table

I am usong Inner join on one column

The problem is i am not getting the expected rows as out put of merge .

I tried to join the two tables in sqlserver query window and i am getting expected result

What could be the problem

The first table is

Reservations.ReservationManual

second table is Out put of the following query

Select Distinct B.ReservationID as R

from Property.Main A ,Reservations.Reservations B ,Reservations.ReservationRooms C

Where

A.propertyID = B.PropertyId And

C.ReservationID = B.ReservationID And

getdate() >=C.Until +A.ReservationOffLineDays

i am not getting the expected result here in SSIS package merge join

But if i try to execute the following in query editer in management studio i am getting the expected result !!

declare @temp as table

(ResID Varchar(50)

)

Insert into @temp

(ResID)

Select Distinct B.ReservationID as R

from Property.Main A ,Reservations.Reservations B ,Reservations.ReservationRooms C

Where

A.propertyID = B.PropertyId And

C.ReservationID = B.ReservationID And

getdate() >=C.Until +A.ReservationOffLineDays

select * from Reservations.ReservationManual A , @temp b

Where A.reservationID = b.resID

Merge Join Or Union All

Oct 9, 2006

Hi,

I am trying to normalize data using the unpivot transform. I have to unpivot using more than one key so I have a multicast feeding into two unpivot transforms then into a sort transform. This is where my problem starts - I have tried using a Merge Join (inner Join) transform but dont get the expected result.

My original data looks like this:

Pk_ID

Choice1

Choice2

Feedback1

Feedback2

10

a

b

x

y

After the mulitcast - unpivot - Merge Join, the expected result is: (pk_newID is an identity)

Pk_newID

fk_ID

Choice

Feedback

563

10

a

x

564

10

b

y

However with a Merge-Join (inner join on pk_ID) I get

Pk_newID

fk_ID

Choice

Feedback

563

10

a

x

564

10

a

y

565

10

b

x

566

10

b

y

Is the Merge Join transform not the right choice?

Thanks

Help Needed With Merge Join

Jan 10, 2008

I am trying to use the merge join example in the following link. To import new records only.

http://www.sqlis.com/311.aspx

The problem is that for some unkown reason the join is not woeking correctly. One of the records is incorrectly showing a NULL on the output. This would indicate that it would be a new record, but it is not it already exists in the new table.

I created a dummy table in SQL and executed the same join and I always get the right answer. What the heck could be wrong?

For example. Table A has 20 records Table B has 3 records. Table B has the new records I want to import into Table A. The package runs corectly the first time, only importing the 3 new records. Then the next time the package runs it shows 1 of the 3 records as being new still, and tries to import the record causing a PK error. Adding a watch to the MERGE output shows that the one record has a NULL on the join.

Please help this is driving me nuts.

About Merge Join Component

Mar 30, 2007

Hi, I'm using a Merge Join Component of Inner Join type to retrieve from the right pipeline some records to append to the ones coming from left pipeline according to the join citerias defined on the compnent.
Is there any way to know which are the records coming from the left pipeline that doesn't match the join criterias?
In the following I'll try to do an axample.

LF pipeline:
Column0 Column1 Column2
1 aaaa aa11
2 bbbb bb11
3 cccc cc11
4 dddd dd11

RT pipeline:
ColumnA ColumnB
1 aa22
4 dd22

On exiting from the MergeJoin, defining ��Column0�? for LT as join key and ��ColumnA�? for RT and as output data all the columns of the LT pipeline and the only ColumnB from the RT pipeline it should be obtained the following records:

Column0 Column1 Column2 ColumnB
1 aaaa aa11 aa22
4 dddd dd11 dd22

and the records from the LT pipeline:
2 bbbb bb11
3 cccc cc11

shouldn't go in the output from the Merge Join Component.

What I need to know is which are these last lines because I need to manage them.
Thanks!

Merge Join Comparison

Oct 19, 2007

I'm trying to compare two fields between two tables using a Merge Join that runs into a conditional. This conditional sorts mismatched rows from validated ones but its returning incorrect mismatches (which means the mismatch is actually a match).

TABLE1 has two DT_STR fields with length 16 and TABLE2 had two DT_STR fields with length 32.

I've used a data conversion component to lengthen the first table's fields to a length of 32 but there still seems to be incorrect mismatches. For example TABLE1 had "AAA" and "BBB" and this appeared as a mismatch. If I used Query Analyzer to check TABLE2 for this criteria it would exist (which means it IS a match).

Is there any way to view hidden characters (i.e. carriage returns, tabs) in those fields? I've tried using RTRIM in my SQL Query for both my data sources and they still don't match up.

Merge Join Output Bug?

Nov 7, 2006

I've run into something that looks like a bug to me but I wanted to run it by the board:

Merge join 2 sorted tables.

Table1: ColumnA : Sort Order 1, ColumnB Sort Order 2

Table2 : ColumnA: Sort Order 1, ColumnB Sort Order 2, ColumnC not sorted

Merge Join the two tables on ColumnA and ColumnB...

Choose the following as output columns

A + B + C = works

C = works

A + C = works

B + C = NOT work.. error message: The column with the SortKeyPosition value of 0 is not valid. It should be 2.

Basically if you choose one or more of the sorted columns in the output at least one of them has to be the column with Sort position 1 or you'll get that error.

Is this a bug or intentional? If you do not have sort column 1 in the output that output could no longer be considered sorted... so perhaps the error is related to that (instead of error I'd expect some warning about the sorting). Interesting that it lets you choose C only becuase that also makes the output unsorted.

Merge Join Problem

Mar 15, 2006

Hello,
I've got a problem with the merge join operator.

I'm trying to Join two tables using a left outer join.

Here are my tables :

TABLE AGENT
AGENT_CODE; REGION_ID; COUNTRY_ID
AA;01;01;
BB;01;01;
CC;01;02;
CC;02;02;
DD;01;01;

600 records in this table.

TABLE DELEGUE
AGENT_CODE; FIRST_NAME; LAST_NAME
AA; Maradona;Diego;
BB; Maradona;Diego;
DD; Zidane;Zinedine;

145 records in this table.

This is what i expect in my left outer join:
AGENT_CODE; REGION_ID; COUNTRY_ID;FIRST_NAME; LAST_NAME
AA;01;01;Maradona;Diego;
BB;01;01;Maradona;Diego;
CC;01;02;NULL;NULL
CC;02;02;NULL;NULL;
DD;01;01;Zidane;Zinedine

600 records in the destination table, with only 145 Not null first_name and last_name

The
issorted property has been set to true in the 2 sources tables, the
numkeyscolumns property is set to 1, and the join keys are both checked.
When i execute the sql query using the editor in sql server, the result is good, i've got what i've expected.
But
when i run the dataflow, the destination has got 600 records, but the
columns FIRST_NAME and LAST_NAME are not null only 8 times, the 592
other lines are NULL.
Could someone explain to me why i lost 145-8=137 FIRST_NAME and 145-8=137 LAST NAME ?
Thank you in advance.

Merge Join More Than 2 Tables

Nov 7, 2006

I need to take certain items of data from four different tables and out them into one table.

Unfortunately my source data's version of SQL does not support the LEFT JOIN keyword which has left me with a bit of a problem.

I saw the merge join in SSIS and used it to get data from two of the tables and stick them in the destination and it all worked fine.

That got me thinking, is it possible to create a second merge join transformation within the same data flow task for the remaining two tables and then join the output of both the merge joins to give me the data I need from all four tables in one output?

Merge Join With Empty Inputs

May 25, 2006

Hi all,

Does anyone have suggestions for ways to deal with the chance that a merge join might receive empty inputs?

I've noticed that when this happens the transformation seems to hang. I changed the MaxBuffersPerInput to zero and this seems to cure the problem but I'm not sure it's the best way to deal with it.

Would it be a good idea to test the row counts with a conditional split before such a join?

Cheers,

Andrew

Merge Join Vs Insert Then Update: What Is The Best ?

May 8, 2008

Hello,

I have to load 2 flat file of 2 Gb each in a table. I found 2 ways to do that:
- Either I read my 2 file in parallels and I use a merge join transformation to merge my data. Then I load theses datas in my destination table
- Or I insert all my first file in the destination table then I read the second file and update my table with the new information.

Based on your experience, what is the best ? I'm running the first way for more than 30 minutes and SSIS is still sorting my datas.... (sort before the merge join)

Thanks in advance,

Knid regards
