Pass variable into execute sql task

hi
i want to execute my stored proc, in ssis package . i have 2 parameter, so i need pass values from another table one by one.
i need to execute stored proc for each from another table, by passing values
how to do it
You can do it as follows
1. Add a variable of type object in SSIS
2. Add a execute sql task with query as
SELECT field1,field2
FROM Table
Set resultset option as Full resultset and in resultset tab map the resultset to object variable.
3. Add a ForEach loop with ADO enumerator and map it to object variable. Inside loop add two variable to get each iterative values for field1 and field2
4. Inside loop add a execute sql task and set command as
EXEC ProcedureName ?,?
Map the parameters to two variables created inside the loop.
On executing package the procedure gets executed for each record in the table.

How to pass a parameter into execute sql task and later use it into dataflow task?

i am in a situation, where i have a logging table in which i have a primary key called ETL_log_ID which is an identity column and acts as a foreign key for various fact table and dimension tables which are populated using SSIS packages. Now i wanna use the
ETL_log_ID as a parameter in the execute sql task which populates the log table and pass the same value in the data flow task which populates the facts and dimension. Can you let me know how to pass the parameter in a step by step procedure.
Thanks,
Nikhil

Issue is with variable @columnz.
Scope of variables is only limited to the batch and if batch is over Variable is no more accessible.
Reproduce Steps:
DECLARE @columnz int = 0
Go --Scope of @columnz ends here
SELECT @columnz -- Ends up with error
So you have to remove GO keyword. I have commented 2 of them in below:
DROP TABLE tmpNCPCNCDownstreamMaxUtilization3wks
SELECT node
,max(utilization) AS max_Utilization
,DATE
INTO tmpNCPCNCDownstreamMaxUtilization3wks

Passing the same input parameter twise in execute sql task

Hi All, I want to insert some values to 3 different tables in sql server. Execute sql task is used to populate three tables. Here is the sql statement.
DECLARE @Dt AS DATE
SET @Dt = ?
INSERT INTO TABLE1 SELECT ?, COL2, COL3 FROM TABLE_A
INSERT INTO TABLE2 SELECT ?, COL2, COL3 FROM TABLE_B
Input parameter is mapped as follows :
Variable name : User::EffectiveDate
Direction : Input Data Type :
Date Parameter name :0
Parameter size :-1
User::EffectiveDate is datetime variable.
When the package is executed, it throws an error.
[Execute SQL Task] Error: Executing the query " " failed with the following error: "Multiple-step OLE DB operation generated errors. Check each OLE DB status value, if available. No work was done.". Possible failure reasons: Problems
with the query, "ResultSet" property not set correctly, parameters not set correctly, or connection not established correctly. I am not sure what I am doing wrong here. If anyone could point me to the right direction, I really appreciate.
Thanks
shamen

To expand on the other answers.
Your SQL command
DECLARE @Dt AS DATE
SET @Dt = ?
INSERT INTO TABLE1 SELECT ?, COL2, COL3 FROM TABLE_A
INSERT INTO TABLE2 SELECT ?, COL2, COL3 FROM TABLE_B
It using 3 input variables. I assume you didn't pass 3 variables and you want @DT to be column 1 in each. In that case you would use:
DECLARE @Dt AS DATE
SET @Dt = ?
INSERT INTO TABLE1 SELECT @Dt, COL2, COL3 FROM TABLE_A
INSERT INTO TABLE2 SELECT @Dt, COL2, COL3 FROM TABLE_B

Execute SQL Task does not Update from a Date Variable Reliably

I'm using a DateTime variable in SSIS 2008 that is used to set the SQLStatement property of an Execute SQL Task.
"DELETE FROM Labor WHERE Week = '" + (DT_WSTR, 100) @[User::Week] + "'"
Week is the next Sunday:
DATEADD( "day", @[User::DaysTillSunday] , @[User::TheDayThatIsTwentyMinutesPrior] )
DaysTillSunday:
DATEPART( "dw", @[User::TheDayThatIsTwentyMinutesPrior] ) == 1 ? 0 : 8 - DATEPART( "dw", @[User::TheDayThatIsTwentyMinutesPrior] )
TheDayThatIsTwentyMinutesPrior:
(DT_DATE)(DT_DBDATE)DATEADD("minute",-20,GETDATE())
The SSIS Package deletes the current week's data, reloads it with fresh data, then calculates the difference between the current week and last week.
The problem is that randomly, instead of deleting the current week, it will delete the previous week. This happens maybe 5-10% of the time. At least it does until I rebuild the package and import it into SQL Server again.
I'm guessing that the Execute SQL Task is not updating the value of the Week variable before it executes. I started with the source type being a variable. Then I decided to try Direct input and pass in the Week as a parameter (OLE DB Connection
Type). That didn't work either.
Most recently I tried writing the Week variable to a table first, then having a sequence container with all the tasks second. Slightly better but I still saw the date was wrong 2 times in about 90 executions. I was hoping that writing the Week
variable out to the database would force an update of any associated connections to it, but that didn't seem to work.
Any ideas? Is this a known issue, am I missing a setting?
thanks,
John

John, computers either work all the time or have a bug. I suspect it is the latter.
To find it [faster] you need to log what the resulting expression was used in the package.
I am baffled how rebuilding a package would fix anything like setting a date.
It might be even dependant on when you run the package.
Why
DATEADD("minute",-20,GETDATE())
DATEADD( "day", -8 , GETDATE() )
It must be enough to set the week (that appears to be a date) as above.

How do I return two values from a stored procedure into an "Execute SQL Task" within SQL Server 2008 R2

Hi,
How do I return two values from a
stored procedure into an "Execute SQL Task" please? Each of these two values need to be populated into an SSIS variable for later processing, e.g. StartDate and EndDate.
Thinking about stored procedure output parameters for example. Is there anything special I need to bear in mind to ensure that the SSIS variables are populated with the updated stored procedure output parameter values?
Something like ?
CREATE PROCEDURE [etl].[ConvertPeriodToStartAndEndDate]
@intPeriod INT,
@strPeriod_Length NVARCHAR(1),
@dtStart NVARCHAR(8) OUTPUT,
@dtEnd NVARCHAR(8) OUTPUT
AS
then within the SSIS component; -
Kind Regards,
Kieran.
Kieran Patrick Wood http://www.innovativebusinessintelligence.com http://uk.linkedin.com/in/kieranpatrickwood http://kieranwood.wordpress.com/

Below execute statement should work along the parameter mapping which you have provided. Also try specifying the parameter size property as default.
Exec [etl].[ConvertPeriodToStartAndEndDate] ?,?,? output, ? output
Add a script task to check ssis variables values using,
Msgbox(Dts.Variables("User::strExtractStartDate").Value)
Do not forget to add the property "readOnlyVariables" as strExtractStartDate variable to check for only one variable.

Execute SQL task for Email ToLine using COALESCE and two variables

Hello...
I am converting an old DTS package to SSIS. The old package consist of mostly ActiveX Script so I am breaking it down into steps. Basically... I am retreving a set of records that need to be sent via email to multiple people. In my package to create
my ToLine for the Send Mail Task I am using several steps. Frist I am using:
SELECT CASE
          WHEN EXISTS ( SELECT        users.User_EmailAddress
FROM            dbo.Errors INNER JOIN
                         dbo.Users ON users.user_id = Errors.MonitorAuditor_User_Id
WHERE        ([Audit_Id] = ?) AND ([ErrorCode_Id] = ?) ) THEN
             1
          ELSE
             0
       END AS ValidEventID
I use this to see if there is any records to create my email string. This works fine. After this I have a Script Task that splits my pipe in two. When no records exist (User::ValidEventID == 0) I am loging that event to a log. When records do exist
I am using another Execute SQL task to create the actual ToLine:
Declare @combinedString VARCHAR(max)
SELECT      @combinedString = COALESCE(@combinedString + ', ', '') + Users.User_EmailAddress
FROM            dbo.Errors INNER JOIN
                         dbo.Users ON users.user_id = Errors.MonitorAuditor_User_Id
WHERE        ([Audit_Id] = ?) AND ([ErrorCode_Id] = ?)
SELECT convert(varchar(4000),@combinedString) as StringValue
I have my resultSet set to Single Row. I have two variables coming if for the Audit_Id and ErrorCode_Id. My Result Set is set to a Variable: User::EmailAddressString.
Next it goes through a foreach loop to map to the ToLine email variable that I created named User:User_EmailAddress.
Then I am using that in my Send Email Task.
It all works fine when I hard code my variables into the COALESCE statement but as soon as I replace that with the ? that SSIS requires for variables I am getting the following error:
[Execute SQL Task] Error: Executing the query "Declare @combinedString VARCHAR(max)
SELECT      ..." failed with the following error: "Syntax error, permission violation, or other nonspecific error". Possible failure reasons: Problems with the query, "ResultSet" property not set correctly,
parameters not set correctly, or connection not established correctly.
I have tried changing my resultset property, I have checked my paramenters and my connection. I don't understand why it works fine when I have my varaiables hard coded but not when I change them to the ?.
Thanks in advance for you help in this matter.
Reach for the unknown!

Katherine... that did not work.
What I ended up doing was taking out the forloop all together. In my Execute SQL Task I changed the result set from single row to XML. I took out the COALESCE statement and just went for something more basic:
select users.User_EmailAddress + ';' as User_EmailAddress from Errors inner join users on users.user_id = Errors.MonitorAuditor_User_Id WHERE ([Audit_Id] = ? AND [ErrorCode_Id] = ?)
Currently I am just logging the string to a text file so I can see the results. In my text file the string is surrounded by <ROOT></ROOT>. So I will next I will work on triming that off the string and then populate my Send Mail Task.
This is how I trimed off the <ROOT></ROOT>:
Dts.Variables(
"EmailAddressString").Value = Replace(Dts.Variables("EmailAddressString").Value,
"<ROOT>",
Dts.Variables(
"EmailAddressString").Value = Replace(Dts.Variables("EmailAddressString").Value,
";</ROOT>",
Thanks again everyone for the help!

Transfer data from Result Set (Execute SQL Task) into Flat File

Hi to all,
My problem is this:
-) I have a stored procedure which use a temporary table in join with another "real" table in select statement. In particular the stored procedure look like this:
create table #tmp
col1 varchar(20),
col2 varchar(50)
--PUT SOME VALUE IN #TMP
insert into #tmp
values ('abc','xyz')
--SELECT SOME VALUE
select rt.*
from realTable rt, #tmp
where rt.col1 = #tmp.col1
-) I cannot modify the stored procedure because I'm not admin of database.
-) I HAVE THE REQUIREMENT OF TRANSFER DATA OF SELECT STATEMENT OF SOTRED PROCEDURE INTO FLAT FILE
-) THE PROBLEM is that if I use an OLEDB source Task within a Data Flow Task I'm not be able of mapping column from OLEDB source to flat file destination. The reason for this, is that in the "Column page" of OLEDB source task, SSIS do not retrieves
any column when we using a temporary table. The reason for this, is that SSIS is not be able to retrieve metadata related to temporary table.
-) One possible solution to this problem is to use an Execute SQL Task to invoke the stored procedure, store the result returned from stored procedure in a Result Set through a Object type user variable.
-) The problem now is: How to transfer data from result set to flat file?
-) Reading here on this forum the solution look be like to use a Script task to transfer data from result set to flat file.
QUESTIONS: How to transfer data from result set to flat file using a script task?? (I'm not an expert of vb .net) Is it really possible?? P.S.: The number of row returned of stored procedure is very high!
thanks in advance.

SSIS: How to use one Variable as Input and Output Parameter in an Execute SQL Task

Hello,
i need your help,I'm working on this issue since yesterday and have no idea how to deal with it.
As I already said in the tilte i want to start a stored procedure via a Execute SQL Task which has around 15 prameters. 10 of these should be used as input AND output value.
As an example:
i have three Variable:
var1    int        2
var2    int     100
var3    int     200
the stroed procedure:
   sp_test
     @var1 int
      @var2 int output
      @var3 int output
   AS
   BEGIN
        SET @var2 = @var2 * @var1
        SET @var3 = @var3 + @var1
   END
So in the Execute SQL Task i call the Stored Procedure as follwos:
    Exec sp_test  @var1 = ?, @var2 = ? output, @var3 = ? output
(I use an OLE DB Connection)
The parameter mapping is as follows:
User::Var1        input                   numeric              0                 -1
User::Var2        input/output         numeric              1                 -1
User::Var3        input/output         numeric              2                 -1
Now my problem. If i set  Var2 and Var3 as Input parameter the values are still the same after running the package. If i set them to a output value the are both Null because the procedure doesnt get any values.
I already tried to list them a second time - like
    User::Var2        input                  numeric              1                 -1
    User::Var2        output                 numeric              1                 -1
or i use a new variable
    User::Var2                  input                  numeric              1                 -1
    User::Var2Return        output                 numeric              1                 -1
but i alwas get the error
"Multiple-step OLE DB operation generated errors. Check each OLE DB status value, if available. No work was done."
Has anybody an idea how I can solve this problem?
Thanks a lot.
Kind Regards,
Alice

Hi Alain,
thx for your answer.
I have around 15 procedures called one after the other to calculated and modify my values. Each procedure is responsible for an other but overlapping set of variables. So i thought it would be a good idea to call them one after the other with the needed variables via a execute sql task.
So if i use a result set, how i get my stored procedure to return 10 values? I would have to use a Function instead of a procedure, wouldn't i?
As if i have 15 procedures this would be a lot of work.
But thanks a lot for the idea. I think an other idea would be to create one function which calls all stored procedures and returns all the calculated values as a result set, wouldn't it?.
Kind Regards.
Alice

I have the above SQL stmt in the excute SQL task and declared 2 variable "PartitionDate" and "PartitionName" in the Package, the RESULT SET I hav given as "Single Row" and when I run the ETL I get the error as
[Execute SQL Task] Error: An error occurred while assigning a value to variable "PartitionDate": "Exception from HRESULT: 0xC0015005".

Does your package variable datatype match the datatype of your parameter?
Is your Package variable assigned to the parameter in the task editor?
And does the parameter name in the task editor match the parameter names in your stored procedure?

HELP: SSIS 2012 - Execute SQL Task with resultset to populate user variables produces DBNull error

I am experiencing an unexplainable behavior with the Execute SQL Task control in SSIS 2012. The following is a description of how to simulate
the issue I will attempt to describe:
1. Create a package and add two variables User::varTest1 and User::varTest2 both of String type with default value of "Select GetDate()"
for each, have shown this to not matter as the same behavior occurs when using a fixed string value or empty string value.
2. Add a new Execute SQL Task to the control flow.
3. Configure an OLE DB connection.
4. Set SQLSourceType = "Direct Input"
5. Set the ResultSet property of the task to "Single Row"
6. In the ResultSet tab add two results as follows:
Result Name: returnvalue1, Variable Name: User::varTest1
Result Name: returnvalue2, Variable Name: User::varTest2
7. Set an expression for the SqlStatementSource property with a string value of "Select 'Test' returnvalue1, 'Testing' returnvalue2'"
The idea is that the source would be dynamically set in order to run a t-sql statement which would have dynamic values for database name
or object that would be created at runtime and then executed to set the user variable values from its resultset. Instead what occurs is that a DBNull error occurs.
I am not sure if anyone else has experienced this behavior performing similiar actions with the Execute SQL Task or not. Any help would be
appreciated. The exact message is as follows:
[Execute SQL Task] Error: An error occurred while assigning a value to variable "varRestoreScript": "The type of the value
(DBNull) being assigned to variable "User::varRestoreScript" differs from the current variable type (String). Variables may not change type during execution. Variable types are strict, except for variables of type Object.
User::varRestoreScript is the first return value. And even with the a dummy select the same result occurs. I have narrowed the issue down
to the T-SQL Statement structure itself.
The following works just fine within the execute sql task control as long as no resultset is configured for return:
"Declare @dynamicSQL nvarchar(max)
Select @dynamicSQL = name
From sys.databases
Where name = 'master'
Select atest_var1=@dynamicSQL, atest_var2='static'"
I have tried various iterations of the script above with no success. However, if I use the following derivative of it the task completes
successfully and variables are set as expected. This will not work for my scenario however as I need to dynamically build a string spanning multiple resultsets to build one of the variable values.
"Select atest_var1=name, atest_var2='static'
From sys.databases
Where name = 'master'
I have a sample package which can reproduce this issue using the above code. You can get to that through the post on www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/Topic1582670-364-1.aspx
Scott

Arthur, the query when executed doesn't return a null value for the @dynamicSQL variable. It returns "master" as a string value. Even the following fails which implements that suggestion:
Declare @dynamicSQL as nvarchar(max)
Select @dynamicSQL = name
From master.sys.databases
Where name = 'master' -- (or any other DB name)
I believe I have found the cause of the issue. It is datatype and size related. The above script will properly set the variables in the resultset as long as you don't use nvarchar(max) or varchar(max). This makes the maximum data size for
a String variable 4000 characters whether unicode or non-unicode typed.

Deferred Tasks - Passing Variables into Workflow

Hi everyone
I am experiencing difficulties with deferred tasks in IDM 8.1. I have managed to create a deferred task on a user, with the task name being Generate Email. I also passed in an attribute id, and these can be seen in the user view under waveset.properties.tasks.

            </Activity>I have set up a scheduler that correctly scans all the user objects for this workflow name, and the Generate Email workflow is periodically run.
The problem is when it gets to the Generate Email workflow, all the variables that were set when the deferred task was created are gone. Both <ref>id</ref> and <Variable name=id input=true/> return null.
Setting the following in the TaskSchedule object did not help, as the string value $(id) is passed into the workflow instead of the id itself. I cannot debug the TaskSchedule as the Netbeans IDE does not allow me to put in breakpoints on this file.
<Variables>
    <Object>
      <Attribute name='id' value='$(id)'/>
    </Object>
</Variables>My question is, how do I pass variables into a workflow via a deferred task?

Hi,
Here is an example that I found that may assist.
<Activity name='setDefTask'>
     <Action application='com.waveset.session.WorkflowServices'>
       <Argument name='op' value='addDeferredTask'/>
       <Argument name='name' value='$(user)'/>
       <Argument name='task' value='$(taskType)'/>
       <Argument name='date' value='$(date)'/>
       <Argument name='description' value='$(taskDescription)'/>
       <Argument name='taskDefinition'>
          <Object>
              <Attribute name='Arg1' value='value1'/>
              <Attribute name='Arg2' value='value2'/>
              <Attribute name='Arg3' value='value3'/>
          </Object>
       </Argument>
     </Action>
     <Transition to='end'/>
</Activity>Hope it helps

Same parameter multiple times in Execute SQL Task

Hi all,
i have a fairly long parametrized query that needs to be run within an Execute SQL task. It has only 2 unique parameters, but these need to be used multiple within that query. The connection is OLEDB.
ill simplify my requirement by making up an arbitrary T-SQL "where" clause that will illustrate what i need:
where
x = @param1
and y = @param1
and z > @param2
and w > @param2
moving this into an SSIS execute SQL task will require the following:
where
x = ?
and y = ?
and z > ?
and w > ?
I know i need to specify 4 parameters and remap the same variables multiple times.. like so:
User:aram1   -> 0
User:aram1   -> 1
User:aram2 -> 2
User:aram2 -> 3
isnt there a better way? i ask this because in my real task i have 2 params, each is reused 4 and 5 times respectively and it seems stupid to repeat params like this.

@ _proffy_
you can pass the same variable or value as parameter multiple times sql task.
follow the steps below.
1) type the sql query with parameters in SQL statement tab of sql task editor
2. in the parameter mapping, select the variables.
you can select the same variables more than once.
give the parameter name as 0,1,2,3..... based on variables you require.
do not forget to chooose the appropriate Datatype.
ex:
select * from table1
where a= ?
and b=?
and c= ?
parameters:
Var name               param Name
user::Var1               0
user::Var1               1
user::Var2               2
so the value becomes a=var1, b= var1 and c= var2

Execute SQL Task Failing

Hi there,
I have this issue with my Execute SQL Task Failing. I am trying to execute a sp using an execute sql task. The execute statement is contained in a variable (exec [sp_name] par1, par2) that I have declared at the package level. Now inside the exec sql
tak, I am calling this variable. Now when I try to execute this task, it fails and I get the following:
[Execute SQL Task] Error: Executing the query "EXEC CTL_ISRT_A 55,1" failed with the following error: "Could not find stored procedure 'CTL_ISRT_A'.". Possible failure reasons: Problems with the query, "ResultSet" property not
set correctly, parameters not set correctly, or connection not established correctly.
There is a stored procedure called "CTL_ISRT_A" in the db and I am able to execute it from SQL Server. This sp is inserting a new row in the table and it returns @@IDENTITY.
I tried setting the result set to a 'Single Row' and tried assigning the value to a variable but it didnt help. Could someone help me here?
Thanks in advance

return it as an output parameter
ie make sp like below
ALTER PROCEDURE [devdba].[M_CTL_ISRT]
@F_ID INT
, @PR_IND BIT
, @Debug bit = 0
, @IDVal int = 0 OUTPUT
AS
BEGIN
SET NOCOUNT ON
DECLARE @ErrorMsg varchar(5000)
DECLARE @USR_ID AS INT = 1;
INSERT INTO TBL_D (F_ID, PR_IND, USR_ID,CRE_DT, LAST_MODD_USR_ID, LAST_MODD_DT)
VALUES (@F_ID, @PR_IND, @USR_ID, GETDATE(), @USR_ID, GETDATE())
SELECT @IDVal= @@IDENTITY
END
Then in execute sql task call it as
EXEC devdba].[M_CTL_ISRT] ?,?,0,? OUT
then in parameter tab pass required variables and for last parameter make direction as Output and you'll get identify value stored in it.
