Reformatting partial MM/DD/YYYY dates in SSIS

Hi,
I have a text file being imported where some dates are in the m/d/yyyy format rather than mm/dd/yyyy and they are being incorrectly converted with the day and month being switched around.
Is there a simple way to fix this issue ?
Many thanks
Scott

Hi Scott,
Based on your description, you want to format the data with m/d/yyyy or mm/dd/yyyy format to mm/dd/yyyy.
In this scenario, we can use Derived Column Transformation to convert the original format to mm/dd/yyyy format, then use the new column maps to the corresponding Destination column. The following expression is for your reference:
(DT_DBDATE)(RIGHT(Column,4) + "/" + (SUBSTRING(Column,2,1) == "/" ? "0" + SUBSTRING(Column,1,1) : SUBSTRING(Column,1,2)) + "/" + (LEFT(RIGHT(Column,7),1) == "/" ? "0" + LEFT(RIGHT(Column,6),1) : LEFT(RIGHT(Column,7),2)))
If there are any other questions, please feel free to ask.
Thanks,

How can I set BOE XI R2 InfoView to use MM/DD/YYYY date format?

How can I set BOE XI R2 InfoView to use MM/DD/YYYY date format instead of the default yyyy-mm-dd that comes up?
Thank you.
Paul

I'm sorry to be dense. Are you using BOE XI R2? I don't see a "preferred viewing local" under preferences. I see "My Interface Locale is..." under the General tab, which I have set to United States. I don't see anywhere where I can enter in the dates and numbers.
I also checked in the CMC under Business Object Enterprise applications, and did not see anything there either.
Can you be specific?
Thanks again.

Data Migration - SSIS Transfer SQL Server Objects Task or something else

Can someone please kindly help me with this.
Scenario
I have a requirement to transfer selected tables and views (with a specific schema) between two databases which reside in two different servers. In the interest of clarity I will call my databases DB_A and DB_B respectively. Please note that these databases
are NOT on the same server.
Transfer of these objects (tables & views) happens once a month. 99% of the objects in question will be of the same name and schema between the two databases as the ones migrated from the previous month. However, metadata definitions may change on DB_A
and those changes are supposed to be reflected on DB_B along with the associated data. This therefore means that each time a transfer/migration happens; objects in DB_B are dropped first and completely replaced by objects from DB_A.
Problem
What is the best way to achieve this?
My first attempt has been a go on the Transfer SQL Server Objects Task
in SSIS. The problem that I have is that when using Transfer SQL Server Objects Task
I don’t know how to filter objects in DB_A so that only objects with a specified schema can be migrated.
Transfer SQL Server Objects Task appears to be the best solution to me to accomplish my requirement but I can’t filter the desired objects by schema. Someone suggested using C# but my C# skills are not that eloquent.
May someone kindly help please, or possibly suggest any other way which can be handy to fulfil my requirements.
Many thanks,
Mpumelelo

Hi Prashanth
Thanks for your response. There is one problem though in my case. I’m sorry I forgot to mention this in the original question. When the objects are moved from BD_A to DB_B the schema in DB_B changes. That is, schemas are not the same between the source and
the destination database. How do I handle that with the solution that you have suggested?
Many thanks,
Mpumelelo

Getting XML data of SSIS Package (which is located in File System) from a query

Hi,
We have around 200 SSIS packages deployed to File System. These pacakges are being scheduled using SQL Agent job.
So, currently I have a list of all the packages and their respective File Path.
Note : **They are NOT deployed to Server**.
Now, my task is to search all the packages which has a specific connection in it.
From the below blog, I got to know we can achieve this by querying the XML data of the SSIS Package.
https://www.simple-talk.com/sql/ssis/-exploring-ssis-architecture-and-execution-history-through-scripting/.
But in the above article they are getting the XML definition of the Package from msdb(as it was deployed to server).
In my requirement, SSIS Packages are in File System. Is there any way to to get the XML definition of these packages using a query.
Please let me know if the above requirement is not clear or if any further information is required.
Thanks
Raksha

Hi Visakh & Praveen,
Thanks for the response.
@Visakh: The query provided by you gives the information about all the connection strings in the package.
@Praveen: The query in the link provided by you lists the values of all the properties of the package like MaxerrorCount, CreatorName, CreatorDate and other properties.
I think, we may have to slightly modify this query to get the connection string values
Praveen, nice to hear from you after a long time and that too in this forum !! :) Hope you are doing good.
Thanks

Incremental load not capturing data in SSIS 2012

Hi ,
Iam having an issue with Oracle CDC for SSIS which is new in 2012, Developed SSIS packages with Full load and Incremental load logic to load data into ODS - STAGE - DWH. Here problem is when ever i do a full load following with an incremental load , incremental
load is not capturing updated data , if i do second incremental load then it captures data.
Is there any solution for this to get data in first incremental load.

Are you sure it picks up LSN correctly? I doubt its CDC service not picking the correct LSN value which it uses to identify the changes.
It should be in cdc.lsn_time_mapping table I guess

WCS showing mm/dd/yyyy date format in UK

WCS is showing dates in mm/dd/yyyy format despite being in the UK where it should be dd/mm/yyyy.
- Reports show it.
- When a Lobby Ambassador tries to add or schedule a guest user on WCS the date in the 'Start Time' and 'End Time' fields is shown in mm/dd/yyyy format (and is confusing for reception/admin staff who need to use it).
WCS is installed on a Windows 2003 server with latest updates and patches and all regional/international options are set to UK.
Is this something that can be changed from WCS settings or something that needs diving into Apache to fix ?
Regards,
Jen.

Hi Jeniffer,
Basically the WCS uses U.S date format all over the
application.. the time in WCS is synchronized with the
server however the way we have designed and programmed WCS for date format
is in U.S fashion which is mm/dd/yyyy. This is the behaviour that WCS
has since day one and this date format cannot be customized.
Please contact your Accounts team and fee lfree to open up a
Product Enhancement Request (PER)..
this will help you!! lemme know if this naswered ur question!!
Please dont forget to rate the usefull posts!!

hi
i need to user date like 03-31-2015 in my ssis expression for file.
how to do it in expression builder

Hi,
You can use following expression
RIGHT("0" + (DT_WSTR,2)DAY( GETDATE()), 2) + "-"+ RIGHT("0" + (DT_WSTR,2)MONTH(GETDATE()), 2) + "-" +(DT_WSTR,4)YEAR(GETDATE())
In the above expression the GETDATE() function will return the system date

How to reformat OSX while ensuring my data is backed up (iTunes, music, pictures, etc)

I have a Mid 2012 MBP running 10.8.5 and would like to reformat it. However, I would like to ensure that my iTunes library is backed up and remains in tact, as well as any other music, photos, etc...
Also, I use Serato for DJing purposes - i would like to ensure that the metadata inside that software (containing pre-defined cue points, samples, etc...) is also preserved and able to be ported back over post-reformat.
Can somebody help guide me in the direction that I'm looking to go?
Thank you
PS - I have a 500GB external drive that i can backup to

Well, I want to reformat my drive for a simple reason - I just want to start fresh. This was my first MBP (first major Apple device aside from iOS devices) and there was a bit of a learning curve. I'm traditionally a windows guy, and have been in IT for several years - and I've finally come around in the game of the two. However, reformatting and really reinstalling an Apple OS in its entirety is the next thing I'd like to get familiar with - especially to do it on my own to get familiar with it to help for work purposes.
My only concern is ensuring that my iTunes data can come back, and some certain metadata inside another application will be preserved.
I really just want to familiarize myself with the re-installation process (plus I like to perform regular housekeeping on my machines). It's been a little over a year and I'm sure I've got a bunch of junk laying around on this thing at this point - but like I said, this was my learning curve, and I'm ready to start fresh with this puppy.
So, any advice from this point on would be wonderful. Thanks!

Interesting FYI: MySQL and "mm/dd/yyyy" date constants

On the MySQL server that I just tried it on... date constants of the format "m/d/yyyy" did not work.
But they were accepted, without comment, and generated a zero-rows-output query result that did not fail.
Recoding the query output to use "YYYY-MM-DD" format produced the desired results. (I used "ParseDate()" and "DateFormat()" to do the magick.)
It really surprised me that MySQL would be given what I guess it considers to be an un-parseable date, and process it without generating any error. Hence, this "FYI."

Can you provide some code to demonstrate this (with the table-create query too would be helpful for my lazy arse, today, too, if poss ;-)
And is the result the same via JDBC as it is via other MySQL clients?

How to Format a excel template sheet column data using ssis

Hi,
I am filling an excel sheet named sheet1 of a predefined template using SSIS. The template has many other sheets which are calculated using predefined formulas referring sheet 1. Currently I am able to successfully fill the data in sheet1 but other sheets not
getting populated until I manually perform Text Column conversion on few columns like Date,Time(hh:mm:ss). Could some one please help me to achieve this task. Can I automate the Text to Column
conversion operation after filling the excel.
Thanks in advance,
Jithu

Hi Jithu,
If you tried to write the the template the proper (textual) datatypes and the column is and it does not work then
I only can suggest to write a macro that does the Text Column conversion and have the macro triggered from within the package perhaps better off using a separate process (e.g. a console app that is done using Office interop libraries) as doing it right in
the package is quite laborious.

How to add a mm-dd-yyyy date field type in a Planning Data Form

Hi John,
pls, I have one question regarding the possibility of adding a date field type for example 03-03-2009 in a cell of Planning Data Form application.
for example, I created:
- 2 members in Period dimension: StartProject and EndProject and I need to enter and track date for these fields;
- one Account member called Project;
- and a simple form with these collumns and row;
Trying different settings for my members - seems that I cannot input date in the cell and rcvd errror: "you have entered invalid value".
Pls, can you confirm me if it's possible to enter date type in a form?
If yes, what is the specific setup for the Account and Period properties: Data storage, Time Balance, Data type, Account type etc
many thanks,
Robert

Many thanks John!!! that's it!!!
I had to change it in Data Type evaluation Order because I'm using EPMA and it's working now!!
Thanks again!!!

Partial Solution:Web Service Data Controls don't refresh properly.

I am runing JDeveloper Studio Edition 10.1.3.2.0.4066
I have developed several Web Service Data Controls and pages to use them to display output. The pages seem to have a problem refreshing output when the value of the input parameter is changed, but only once data has been successfully fetched once.
I have tried several settings for the refresh attribute:
IfNeeded: retrieves data only once. Even if other valid values are put in, displays same data. Values that would retrieve no data show a blank screen UNTIL a data set is retrieved, then goes to same data displayed instead of blank form.Scrolls through multiple records. This is true for every option which has IfNeeded in the name
Always: retrieves different data every time the parameter value changes. If the parameter value would result in no data being retrieved, the screen displays the last data retrieved with another value instead of blank. Scrolling is broken because every time I hit the navigation buttons, the screen refreshes and puts the current row back at the first record.
PrepareModel: retrieves different data every time the parameter value changes. If the parameter value would result in no data being retrieved, the screen displays the last data retrieved with another value instead of blank. It will scroll thru records, but every couple of records I get this error:
JBO-35007: Row currency has changed since the user interface was rendered. The expected row key was oracle.jbo.Key[1 ]
RenderModel: Same as IfNeeded.

After adding a refresh condition, RefreshCondition="${adfFacesContext.postback == false}", to the invokeAction for the Execute operation, I was able to query new data when the parameter changed, and maintain correct scrolling behavior. Thanks to Oracle's Chintan Shah for helping me confirm this solution.
However, I still have a problem. If I get a set of data and then pass a parameter which would cause the web service to return no data (a null result set), the screen displays the old set of data rather than a blank screen. Does anyone have a solution to this problem?

SQL Server 2014 Official Final Version ---- Data Tools (SSIS, BIDS, etc.)

I have VS 2013 Professional, and just installed SQL Server 2014 Developer version. Can someone tell me where the proper location for the Data Tools (fka BIDS) is located ? I'm seeing CPT1, etc. but looking for the truly released version.
THank you,
John

Hi,
SSDT-BI installs the Microsoft SQL Server Data Tools Business Intelligence project templates for Analysis Services, Integration Services, and Reporting Services. SSDT does not contain those BI project templates.
SQL Server Data Tools for SQL Server 2014 is available declares that there is a update for Visual Studio 2012 and 2013 has been pushed
which makes SQL Server Data Tools fully compatible with SQL Server 2014.
As I understand, what you need is SSDT-BI and checking updates would not do much help.
Per http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=42313, Microsoft SQL Server Data Tools - Business Intelligence for Visual Studio 2013 has been removed from the Download
Center since April 11.
SSDT-BI has been temporarily removed to deal with side by side issues with SSDT-SQL.
Please be patient and wait it to be reposted. However, I cannot guarantee when it may be released. Sorry for the inconvenience you have experienced and thank you for your understanding and continued support.
Thanks.

What is the best approach/tools/methodolgy to validate data in SSIS

Hi,
I have implemented ETL packages for more than 200 tables . I logged the row count as a first step for testing. Now i would like to implement automation/validate data using test cases.
Being a single resource to do all this process is little difficult for the give time frame:(
Could you please guide me for effective testing scenarios(automation technique) with optimum effort?

I have a script that among all other things does
dtexec.exe package_name /Validate
Other than that, there is a grater danger down the road from schema changes.
