Hi sikandar,
Yes , the total package applicable for the employee
The Total Package is coming because in Infotype 0008 : /TPA has been entered for the infotype :-...Proposed while hiring the Adminstrator can input the /TPA as per the letter and then latter on using the Salary Packaging Facility can enter the Flexible components as per the employee choice
Have done the configuration settings for the Flexible Benefit Package under Payroll > country >

Unable to copy hidden package "Configuration Manager Client Package" to local DP

Content status lists it as successfully distributed to all DPs (including the local site server)
However, component status for SMS_DISTRIBUTION_MANAGER continually logs these events:
Distribution Manager failed to process package "Configuration Manager Client Package" (package ID = CDW00001).
Possible cause: Distribution manager does not have access to either the package source directory or the distribution point.
Solution: Verify that distribution manager can access the package source directory/distribution point.
Possible cause: The package source directory contains files with long file names and the total length of the path exceeds the maximum length supported by the operating system.
Solution: Reduce the number of folders defined for the package, shorten the filename, or consider bundling the files using a compression utility.
Possible cause: There is not enough disk space available on the site server computer or the distribution point.
Solution: Verify that there is enough free disk space available on the site server computer and on the distribution point.
Possible cause: The package source directory contains files that might be in use by an active process.
Solution: Close any processes that maybe using files in the source directory. If this failure persists, create an alternate copy of the source directory and update the package source to point to it.
NOTE: It appears to not be any of these causes.

Both errors are certificate related. Is there anything special about your configuration such as special ACLs on the certificate store or FIPS compliance mode (see
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/811833) being enabled?
Nothing special with certificates; I've used the basic stuff for intranet management of clients.
The only related thing I can think of that may have affected this, is that I discovered earlier today that my MP installation got hosed (error 500) due to a broken client install on the site server itself. I uninstalled the client manually and the server
(as indicated by the component status views) appears to have repaired the MP install. Perhaps it didn't repair it completely? Would a site reset do me any good?

Combining package configuration and Execute SQL task at run time

Hi everyone,
I have an issue regarding setting values at run time
I use package configuration to manage different enviroments scenarios (DEV, PROD):
XML file to store the connections string of SSISConfigDB
and the actual values of parameters in that SSISConfig DB tables Filtered by ConfigurationFilter column
Now, one of my packages needs in addition setting at run time value of a flat file name
i used an Execute SQL task - within the task i read into a variable the file name using command line
then, the full path of Flat File Connection is set by expression concatenating the root folder and the variable
the problem is that the variable stays empy! as if the Execute SQL task was never executed!
Am i doing something incorrect? in the package configuration wizard the configured value are only XML file and the connection string of the DB.
to summerize - how can i combine package configuration, default value, Execute SQL task and expression at runtime?

1.EvaluateasExpression=TRUE (Full Path variable)
2. Do you mean to invlole a ISNULL() function in the expression? if so, no
3. Of course i recieve a valid value
4. The Full path expression is evaluated to the root folder - without the portion of the file name
here is the syntax in Execute SQL Task:
truncate table OnErrorFlagTable
Declare @Path varchar(128)
Declare @FileName varchar(128)
Declare @SenderID varchar(5)
Declare @INST_COD varchar(5)
Declare @Flag int = 0
Declare @FileType varchar(2)='01'
Truncate table TraumaRecords
Select @Path = 'C:\RootFolder\'
--***Insert into Temp table the file so we can take his name***--
Create Table #Tmp(Txt Varchar(Max))
Insert Into #Tmp(Txt)
Exec master..xp_cmdshell 'Dir *.txt C:\RootFolder\/b'
select top 1 @Filename = Txt From #Tmp
Where ISNUMERIC(substring(Txt,1,1))=1
order by Txt desc
Insert into OnErrorFlagTable
Select 2,@FileName
Select @FileName as TraumaFileName,@FileType as FileType
Then, in ResultSet TraumaFileName and FileType are mapped
Expression of @TraumaFlatfileFullPath is
@[User::TraumaFlatfilePath]+ @[User::TraumaFlatFileName]
where the variable @[User::TraumaFlatfilePath] is evaluated in variable window (default value)
and it's value is C:\RootFolder\
and @[User::TraumaFlatFileName] is the ResultSet of the ExecuteSQLTask
and for some reason when executed in SSIS return null while in SSMS return the expected value
Can you try making this into a procedure with required parameters and call it from SQL task to see if you get return value correctly? Use OUTPUT parameters for getting back required values

How to use Salary packaging in ESS...?

Hi All,
We are using ESS 1.0, Webdynpro 600 (EP 7.0).
Is there any standard service for Salary packaging compare (employee perspective) to re-structure his salary components ?
I found tcode : P16B in ECC 6.0.
But I donno how to use and customize it. Please shade some light regarding the same...... what are prerequisites for this tcode ?
Looking forward to your responses. Appreciate your help in advance. Usefull answers would be rewarded full points.
Regards,
Anil Kumar

Hi Sakti,
We are using India Country Grouping - 40.
When I enter the tcode - p16b from end user;s logon, it says transaction cannot be performed.
Please let me know your inputs for the same.

When Deploying SSIS Packages to SQL Server using SSMS Import feature, is the package configuration file deployed at the same time?

Hello, everyone,
I have an SSIS package with a XML package configuration file. I deployed it to the sql server using the import feature in SSMS (in Stored Packages, right click MSDB, select Import, select the package to deploy in file system). My question is
Is the XML package configuration file also deployed? If so, which folder is it stored so that I can change the values in it? If not, is setting up the Configuration tab when scheduling a agent job the way to go manually bring the configuration file in?
Your help and information is much appreciated.
Regards

Thank you Arthur for your reply. I appreciate it.
A followup questions:
I used direct setting for the configuration file path on C:\. But it needs to be on D:\ on the remote server. I can't create the D:\ path because I don't have D:\ drive on my computer (I understand I could use indirect setting to change the path in the remote
server. But that's not the concern here).
My question is: since the configuration is not deployed, can I make it up by setting up the Configurations in creating the agent job step? That is, copy the configuration file to the D:\ drive on the remote server, in Configurations tab, add the configuration
file on D:\ to the configuration. Will it work? Will the package still look for the original config file on C:\? and if it doesn't find it there, will it cause any error?
Thank you in advance for your help.

Require Salary packaging option in ESS portal for India

Dear All,
We need Flexi Benefit Pay option in ESS portal for India.
We tried a lot for the same but could not get any break through....
We found Salary Packaging option in R3 under the Tcode P16B_admin...this is wrking fine in R3 but we want this option in portal so that employees can choose their own salary structure.
We tried to pull this tcode thru Iview but the R3 screen is giving an option for employee to input pernr no. ...so now any employee can input anybodys pernr no. and modify the salary structure.
also please letme know if this is a standard feature or we have to go for standard development.
Thanks & Regards,
JJ.

Dear Somanna/Andy,
Please see below screen shot, how my Portal screen looks like after the changes as suggested by you--
I am supposed to get Time option here. Please correct me if I miss anything

Package Configuration via SQL Server For a Reporting Queue

The scenario is a reporting queue for a web application. Currently when a user queues a report it stores the parameters in a table by queue ID. When that report is set to run the database creates a dtexec command with all the parameters. We use this
method for transferring the values the user selected to the SSIS packages.
I have used SQL Server package configurations before but they are usually a single table with a distinct ConfigurationFilter column. Is it possible to take the standard table layout for the SQL Server package configuration and add another column, say
QueueID. We send the QueueID to each package at run time and use this value to filter the table to the configuration specific to that report?

Here is a better break down of the current process:
1. A user goes to the web application and selects a report/parameters.
2. This will add data to [QUEUE] and [QUEUE_PARAMETERS] tables associated by the QUEUE_ID
3. The server has a windows service which looks for reports in the [QUEUE] table in pending status and gets the next one available and calls a stored procedure with that QUEUE_ID.
4. The stored procedure puts together a dtexec command through xp_cmdshell which contains all the user parameters from the [QUEUE_PARAMETERS] table.
The purposed process is to replace the self made [QUEUE_PARAMETERS] table with the package configuration table. This means we would only have to send the QUEUE_ID via the dtexec command and not all the other parameters. The problem is that if
I add QUEUE_ID to the package configuration table I am not sure how I would reference a specific QUEUE_ID from the SSIS package configuration dynamically. There does not appear to be an expression that can be applied to the package configuration in SSIS
which means the relationship must make the ConfigurationFilter field unique, even though it is not a primary key.

How to configure Data Sources in a Package Configuration?

Good morning,
I'm trying to create a configuration file to deploy my SSIS package on which I have defined 3 data sources shared between several different packages.
When I open the package configurations option and I create a new file configuration, I can select on it the connection managers defined for the data sources but not the proper data sources.
It's the first time that I use data sources and I try to create a configuration file for them so I don't know if I'm doing something wrong or my concept about the use of the data sources is wrong.
Could someone give me a tip/article to know how I can create the configuration file to deploy my package?
Thank you,
Virgilio

What do you mean under "but not the proper data sources"?

SSIS package configurations

Hi Experts,
I am trying to configure my SSIS packages.
I have a master package to call child packages for Dimernsions and Facts.
Below are my two main approaches for configuration
1. Configuring all packages to read a single XML file for database connections and File paths.
In this case if someone want to change the location of config file then I need to change all my package. Is there any other issue with this approach?
2. Configuring via parent package variable. Here I will use the values from the parent package.
But after I did this , if we open the package the connection managers will throw error when we migrate to other server as the hard coding of the connection manager not matches with the actual database. If we run the master package it will
run successfully as it get the correct value from the master package.
Here Is there any way avoid this poping of error?
Please suggest what would be the best way ?
Regards
Mukejee

Hi Mukejee,
The error occurs because the variables passed from the parent child cannot get their runtime value in the child package at design-time. To avoid this issue, we can set the For your first approach, to avoid updating the Package Configurations after moving
to a new server, you can create environment variables on the each server, and export the relevant package configurations to the environment variables.
In reality, we can set the DelayValidation property of the Connection Manager as well as the Data Flow Tasks in the source package so that they don’t prompt for the error messages after being opened in the BIDS/SSDT on a new server.

Package Configuration Wizard or Project Deployment Model

I am using SQL Server 2012 and I have multiple SSIS packages working in DEV.
My aim is to deploy these to File System for execution by a Windows Service application. Should I therefore using the Package Configuration Wizard for storing DEV and PROD server details?
Is the Project Deployment Model only required when deploying to SQL Server?

Hi DarrenOD,
The project deployment model enables you to deploy your projects to the Integration Services server. And there are some features like Parameters, Environment, Environment variables, SSISDB catalog and Catalog stored procedures and views that are available
to projects developed only for the project deployment model.
After converting project deployment model to package deployment model, there are four steps in the package deployment process:
The first optional step is optional and involves creating package configurations that update properties of package elements at run time. The configurations are automatically included when you deploy the packages.
The second step is to build the Integration Services project to create a package deployment utility. The deployment utility for the project contains the packages that you want to deploy.
The third step is to copy the deployment folder that was created when you built the Integration Services project to the target computer.
The fourth step is to run, on the target computer, the Package Installation Wizard to install the packages to the file system.

SSIS Package configuration.

The SSIS packages is developed using BIDS 2008 and Database SQL Server 2008 R2.The package was developed in local box/Developement box and since the
connection string is pointing to local box , it works fine and data got loaded into the target tables.
When the SSIS packages is moved from Dev box to Pre Production or Production box , the package need to be modified since the database connection string
of local is different from Prod box.
To achieve the above process xml configuration has been done which contains the connection string details, but xml is pointing from the dev box path which might not exists in the prod box, so the package need to be open in Prod box and modify the xml file
path again, which the Client is not suppose to do..
To avoid that an Environment variable need to be created which will contain the xml path.
But xml is not that much secure compare to database configuration. So they advice us to configure by SQL Configuration.
The Configuration table will be created in the Db and with the help of SQL Job , the SSIS package will be scheduled, but if the tomrrow the database server
changes the package need to re open again and modify the connection string for the configuration tables.
Could you please suggest the best possible solution for SSIS package configuration when the User move the package from Dev box to Prod Box
with least possible modification.

Hi SubhadipRoy,
Just adding to ltz's suggestion. SSIS provides several options for handling package configuration values such as environment variables, XML files, registry settings, and a table in a SQL Server database. We can store the package configuration parameter values
in a SQL Server database table, then use those stored values when executing the package.
As per my understanding, I think this method is a better solution. Because when we move the package from Dev box to Production box, we can directly use simple T-SQL commands such as INSERT, UPDATE and DELETE to change the configuration data without changing
the package.
For more information about SQL Server Integration Services SSIS Package Configuration, please refer to the following blog:
http://www.mssqltips.com/sqlservertip/1405/sql-server-integration-services-ssis-package-configuration/
If there are any other questions, please feel free to ask.
