Error when exporting to xslx using export wizard or SSIS package

Question

Greetings:
SQL Server 2008 R2, SSMS version 10.50.2500.0
I tried to use the import/export wizard to create a SSIS package that takes the results of a query and outputs to an excel file. 
Here is the table it is deriving from:
CREATE TABLE OrderTravOutput (
TravelerID int
,FirstName varchar(255)
,LastName varchar(255)
,Email varchar(255)
,Email2 varchar(255)
,Cell varchar(255)
,OrderID varchar(255)
,OrderSkillSet varchar(255)
,FacilityName varchar(255)
,City varchar(255)
,StateProvinceID varchar(255)
,ParentID int
,HealthSystem varchar(255)
,UnitName varchar(255)
,LastContact datetime
,OrderStart datetime
,OrderEnd datetime
,Tag varchar(255)
,CompleteDate datetime
,Recruiter varchar(255)
,Brand varchar(255)
,RecruiterEmail varchar(255)
,NumberOfWeeks int
,OrderShifts varchar(255)
,MaxPayrate varchar(255)
,FileOut int
,JobDescription varchar(max)
,RequiredQualifications varchar(max)
,PreferredQualifications varchar(max))
Here is the query being used in the wizard:
select DISTINCT r2.*
from OrderTravOutput r2
JOIN OrderTravOutput r3 ON r2.OrderID = r3.OrderID
AND r2.CompleteDate = (SELECT max(CompleteDate)
FROM OrderTravOutput
WHERE OrderID = r2.OrderID
AND TravelerID = r2.TravelerID
AND r2.OrderSkillSet = ( SELECT TOP 1 OrderSkillSet
FROM OrderTravOutput
WHERE OrderID = r2.OrderID
AND TravelerID = r2.TravelerID)
When I run it, it fails. Here is the report:

What did I do wrong?
Thanks for any help. 

Answer 1

I see some possible problems with the query.  Does it return expected results when executed in the Query window in SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS)?
1.  You will want to specify fields explicitly in the select list, rather than using "*"
2.  You will want to add r3 and r4 aliases in the subqueries, because OrderTravOutput r2 and r3 are definitely in scope there, and specifying an unqualified "OrderID" in the join condition would be ambiguous.
3.  Add an ORDER BY clause to the second subquery, because otherwise TOP 1 OrderSkillSet is meaningless.
4.  The intersection of these two subqueries may exclude records you want to see.  For example, you might have 20 records for a particular combination of OrderID and TravelerID.  But if one of those records has
the MAX(CompleteDate) and a different record has the TOP 1 OrderSkillSet, the query will return zero records for this OrderID and TravelerID, because there is no single record that satisfies both conditions.  Is this what you intend?  Running the
query first in SSMS helps to clarify whether it is returning the expected results.
Anyway, you could start with something like this version of the query:
SELECT DISTINCT r2.TravelerID,
r2.FirstName,
r2.LastName,
r2.Email
FROM OrderTravOutput r2
JOIN OrderTravOutput r3 ON r2.OrderID = r3.OrderID
AND r2.CompleteDate = (SELECT MAX(CompleteDate)
FROM OrderTravOutput r3
WHERE r3.OrderID = r2.OrderID
AND r3.TravelerID = r2.TravelerID)
AND r2.OrderSkillSet = (SELECT TOP 1 OrderSkillSet
FROM OrderTravOutput r4
WHERE r4.OrderID = r2.OrderID
AND r4.TravelerID = r2.TravelerID
ORDER BY r4.OrderSkillSet)
