How to suppress Lookup transformation no-match output if all rows match.

Hi. I have a Lookup Transformation that sends its matched output to an OLEDB destination and its no-match output to a flat file destination. The Lookup Transformation is configured to "Redirect rows to no match output" when there are no matches.
The problem is that even when all rows match (there is no no-match output), the flat file destination creates an empty file. How can I change this so that the no-match out put "runs" only if there is no-match output? I don't want an empty file to
be created if all rows match.
Thanks.

Hi Peter,
If I am not mistaken, there is no way of controlling the creation of empty files. However this can be handled by adding a "File System Task" to Control Flow for deleting the file if no records are gone through "No-Match Output". Here are the steps for doing
it;
Create a variable for holding number of records going through No-Match output.
Use the variable with "Row Count" transformation. Set "Row Count" in between "Look up" and "Flat File Destination".
Add a "File System Task" just after the "Data Flow Task" for deleting the file.
Set Precedence constraint with an expression using the variable created for executing "File System Task".

  • How do I set the default audio output for all users

    Here's the story. I have a Mac Pro in a classroom that is connected to the audio system via the digital (Toslink) output. The systems are bound to AD and OD with some minor management being performed via MCX (printers, login, etc...)
    When a new user authenticates to the system the output defaults to the internal speakers not the Digital Out.
    My assumption was that I could configure default 0 key in the com.apple.audio.SystemSettings.plist to AppleHDAEngineOutput:1B,0,1,4:2, which is the digital output.
    However it seems that new users are still generated with the Internal Speakers which is AppleHDAEngineOutput:1B,0,1,2:0.
    Is there somewhere else that I can configure that default such that all users will default to the Digital Out, AppleHDAEngineOutput:1B,0,1,4:2? Or am I perhaps not configuring the SystemSettings plist correctly?
    Most of these tasks were previously taken care of by another technician but he has left and I'm quickly trying to pickup the slack for configuration of our Macintosh environment.
    Thanks,

    If you can figure out how to add the printer name, this can be used to lock the margins.

    CPeriod 1: we measured 5 points' data.
    But on CPeriod 2: for some reason, we only measured 4 points' data, no C5's data.
    And on CPeriod 3: we measured 5 points' data, including C5.
    Thus, i create a crosstab using the above data. It shows:
    C5 on CPeriod 2 does not have data, I want to show it blank, not 0.0000.
    How to do? (I have cancel the two options in Report Options,)
    Thanks.
    PS. In some extreme cases, Maybe in CPeriod 4, we measured 10 points' data, and the data in CPeriod 1.2.3 should show blank also.

  • Learning to use lookup transformation - match value in one of two columns

    Im a little new to using lookup transforms.  Been reading a bit, but using two columns is throwing me off.
    Have a dataflow with the source having a column I want to use to lookup in a table in another DB.  The match could be in one of two columns in that table.  
    If a match is found, I need a different value from the lookup table added to the source flow that is going into the destination.
    How can I match on one of two columns in the lookup table, and use a totally different column added to the final input going into the destination ?  
    In the Lookup configuration, I can set the lookup operation to replacing the value in the source, but I want EITHER value match from the two columns from the lookup table to go into the value that will go into the destination.
    With TSQL - I would use a case statement and compare the source column to BOTH of the lookup table columns.

    You can handle this within single lookup using below query
    SELECT CASE WHEN <condn1> THEN Field1 ELSE Field2 END AS lookupField,
    CASE WHEN <condn1> THEN Field3 ELSE Field4 END AS MatchField
    FROM Table2
    Then just do single relationship with LookupField and select MatchField to be aded to output
    the condition will specify your fields value condition based on which you determine which column to be matched against

  • How to Suppress The Output of a SQL Query In Oracle 11gR2

    Hi Friends,
    I am using oracle version 11.2.0.1, I have set a cronjob which will run on every 15 minutes and give us a log file mentioning the execution time taken for that SQL query:-
    For example:
    SQL> set timing on;
    SQL> SELECT objProp FROM aradmin.arschema WHERE (schemaId = 175);
    OBJPROP+
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
    *6\60006\4\0\\60008\40\0\60009\4\0\\60010\4\0\\60018\4\0\\600*
    *22\4\68\1\63\AR:jRL#*
    Elapsed: 00:00:00.00
    The above query will return the output as well as the time taken for execution of the query. I want to suppress the output of the query and only want the time taken to be printed. Is it possible by set commands. I have marked the output as bold and made it Italic.
    Please help me at the earliest.
    Regards,

    How would that even be useful?
    A query from a tool such as sql*plus is STILL going to send the output to the client and the client. You can keep sql*plus from actually displaying the data by setting autotrace to trace only.
    But that TIME TAKEN is still going to include the network time it takes to send ALL rows that the query returns across the network.
    That time is NOT the same as the actual execution time of the query. So unless you are trying to determine how long it takes to send the data over the network your 'timing' method is rather flawed.
    Why don't you tell us WHAT PROBLEM you are trying to solve so we can help you solve it?

    You can use the ~no_its_header parameter to deactivate the default

  • Lookup transformation to avoid duplicate rows? - SSIS 2005

    Hi,
    I'm maintaning a SSIS 2005 pkg. I need to read a flat file to write on a SQL Server table, avoiding duplicates.
    I can have duplicates rows into the flat file to import and I need to prevent the insert of any rows already existing in the SQL Server table.
    So, I think to use a lookup transformation. I've created a flat file source, then I connect it to a lookup transformation and inside it I've specified as the reference table the SQL Server destination table. Then, I've checked the available lookup columns
    each adding as a new column: but the lookup task has arised an error and so I've specified as lookup operation the replacement. For each unmatching I need to write on the SQL Server table (the reference table in the lookup). For the lookup output error I've
    indicate to ignore failure. Other steps?
    However, when I run the pkg then inside the SQL Server destination table I can see only NULL values, but I want to see the rows don't already present in the table.
    Any suggests to me, please? Thanks

    Hi,
    I'm using SSIS 2005 as reported in the title of the post.
    I could have duplicates inside the source file and the existing table could haven't any rows.
    Thanks
    If you dont have any rows in existing table, then they will go through Error output in lookup task. For duplicates, lookup task will find matches and will go through lookup match output

  • Can't Get Desired Results from Lookup Transformation

    In my Dataflow, I have an ole db source table where the key is named 'CatalogNumber'.  In my lookup transformation, I am using Full cache, OLE DB connection manager, and 'Redirect rows to no match output'. With that configuration, I expect that if the
    destination table has no data in it, that a match on CatalogNumber will not be made, the data will flow through the 'Lookup No Match Output' path, and populate the destination table.
    In the lookup transformation, I have a join between 'Available Input Columns' and 'Available Lookup Columns' on 'CatelogNumber'. In 'Available Lookup Columns', the box by CatelogNumber is checked.
    I also have 'Lookup Match Output' configured to the same table. When I execute the dataflow, the data always takes the 'Lookup MatchOutput route whether or not the destination table is empty, and thus creates duplicate records.
    What am I doing wrong?
    Thank you for your help.

    Hi cdun2,
    Based on your description, the issue is that the data always takes the 'Lookup Match Output’ route whether or not the destination table is empty, and thus creates duplicate records after executing the dataflow.
    According to your description that 'Lookup Match Output' and 'Lookup No Match Output' are configured to the same destination table, the result should be all data are stored in the destination table, and the 'lookup.CatelogNumber' column has data for 'Lookup
    Match Output' route, null for 'Lookup No Match Output' route in the destination table. The blog below is for your reference:

  • Can we replicate Informatica Lookup transformation in ODI Interface?

    So was just wondering if we could replicate a lookup transformation in an ODI join of some sort where in only one value is returned for multiple matches of the same item....something like a max for a group or something while joining 2 tables...
    So for example I have 2 tables...A columns (Attendee_id,xyx,byx)
    B columns (partnerid,attendee_id,xyz,bxc)
    I want to join table A and B on Attendee_id and get the partner_id---but I want only one record in case of multiple matches for a particular attendee_id
    can we do this??

    No responses yet...Ive tried doing a left outer join...but it still returns all the matches...I want to return only one record....ne help from the xperts?

  • Fuzzy Lookup Transform not writing to destination

    I'm using MSSQL 2008R2 on a MS Server 2008 R2.
    I've tried using a flat file, excel, and creating tables to use the Fuzzy Lookup transform.
    But each time, the source object and Fuzzy Lookup transform turn yellow, but the destination is never reached.
    I'm not trying anything fancy for this now, I have been reduced to just trying to match some test data to see if I was doing anything wrong.
    For my source, it is simply a single column table, we will call it table A, with Oatmen, Juce, and Conut in the Name column.
    The reference table, table B has Oatman, Juice and Coconut in the Name column.
    IS there a known issue with the Fuzzy lookup that I have not found?
    Thanks
