Tracing down data flow within an DB

Hello,
pls, many times I was wandering if there is an practical way of performing subject's issue. Namely,
1) if there is an App without source code, on production server and
2) corresponding DB, that is open i.e., it is possible to go through all the objects but, plethora of them
Question: upon CLICK event on the control located on the App interface, is there an practical way of how to follow data flow, entered on the interface controls, how to trace down which SP(s) have been fired out etc..etc...
DB itself is very, very complex.....
how to cope with such tasks?
thanks
bye

On production server don't use SQL Profiler due to performance impact.
Use server-side tracing with caution as well:

SSIS Data Flow task using SharePoint List Adapter Setting SiteUrl won't work with an expression

Hi,
I'm trying to populate the SiteUrl from a variable that has been set based on a query to a SQL table that has a URL field. Here are the steps I've taken and the result.
Created a table with a url in it to reference a SharePoint Task List.
Created a Execute SQL Task to grab the url putting the result set in a variable called SharePointUrl
Created a For Each container and within the collection I use the SharePointUrl as the ADO object source variable and select rows in the first table.
Still in the For Each container within the Variable mappings I have another Package Variable called PassSiteUrl2 and I set that to Index 0 or the value of the result set.
I created a script task to then display the PassSiteUrl2 variable and it works great I see my url
This is where it starts to suck eggs!!!!
I insert a Data Flow Task into my foreach loop.
I Insert a SharePoint List Adapter into my Data Flow
Within my SharePoint List Adapter I set my list to be "Tasks", My list view to be "All Tasks" and then I set the url to be another SharePoint site that has a task list just so there is some default value to start with.
Now within my Data Flow I create an expression and set the [SharePoint List Source].[SiteUrl] equal to my variable @[User::PassSiteUrl2].
I save everything and run my SSIS package and it overlays the default [SharePoint List Source].[SiteUrl] with blanks in the SharePoint List Adapter then throws the error that its missing a url
So here is my question. Why if my package variable displays fine in my Control Flow is it now not seen or seen as blanks in the Data Flow Expression. Anyone have any ideas???
Thanks
Donald R. Landry

Thanks Arthur,
The scope of the variable is at a package level and when I check to see if it can be moved Package level is the highest level. The evaluateasexpression property is set to True. Any other ideas?
I also tried to do the following. Take the variable that has the URL in it and just assign it to the description of the data flow task to see if it would show up there (the idea being the value of my @[User::PassSiteUrl] should just show in the
description field when the package is run. That also shows up blank.
So i'm thinking its my expression. All I do in the expression is set [SharePoint List Source].[SiteUrl] equal to @[User::PassSiteUrl] by dragging and dropping the variable into the expression box. Maybe the expression should be something
else or is their a way to say @[User::PassSiteUrl] = Dts.Variables("User::PassSiteUrl2").Value.ToString()
In my script task I use Dts.Variables("User::PassSiteUrl2").Value.ToString() to display
the value in the message box and that works fine.

SD DATA FLOW

Can Anyone explain me how is the data flow within the sales and distribution application with regard to BW

Hi,
Sales and Distribution module involves different business scenarios and the data flow differs along with these scenario and the customization that was done as per the business requirement.
For more info reg this please refer to the below link:

Building a data flow task, within a foreach loop for dynamic table name, but ole db source not allowing variable

In my control flow, I set up a variable for the table name, enumerated by SMO, following the instructions from the link here:
http://www.bidn.com/blogs/mikedavis/ssis/156/using-a-for-each-loop-on-tables-ssis
Now, I put a data flow task inside the foreach. I selected the OLE DB connection manger for my database, set the Data access mode to "Table name or view name variable", and selected my variable name from the drop down. So far so good. When I click on OK,
it gives me an error 0x80040E37, basically saying it can't open the rowset for "my variable", Check that the object exists in the database.
So, I assume I won't be able to do this "that' easily, and I will need to build a "SQL command from variable" or some such thing. Any advice on how to build this Source editor to dynamically name my columns from the variable?
Thanks in advance!

Hi mpleaf,
Please try to set "ValidateExternalData" to False in your OLE DB Source Properties and "DelayValidation" property to TRUE, please refer to similar threads:

Update Schema Changes within Query Tool in Data Flow.

Post Author: j_perdzock
CA Forum: Data Integration
I just added new fields to a table within my datastore and re-imported the schema. I need to map data to these new fields via a Query transform already defined within my data flow. The new fields appear within my Targeted datastore; however, these new fields do not appear within the Query Transform. How can I get these new fields to appear within my Query Transform? We are running Designer version 11.5.3.4.

Post Author: wdaehn
CA Forum: Data Integration
Columns have to be created manually in the Query, using "new output column", drag 'n drop or copy/paste. Only if the query has no columns at all and is connected to a target we do the copy/paste for you automatically.

Display Data Flow - Short Dump

Hi all,
When i select display data flow of any cube...it is going for a short dump.
I have searched for the answer in previous Forum questions. I could find only for previous BW versions but not for for BI7.
Could you please let me know the solution for this issue.
Thanks & Regards,
Eswari

Hi All,
Thank you very much for all of your responces.....
I am working on Support Package 10.
Here is the detailed description of the short dump.
Short text
    The current application triggered a termination with a short dump.
What happened?
    The current application program detected a situation which really
    should not occur. Therefore, a termination with a short dump was
    triggered on purpose by the key word MESSAGE (type X).
What can you do?
    Note down which actions and inputs caused the error.
    To process the problem further, contact you SAP system
    administrator.
    Using Transaction ST22 for ABAP Dump Analysis, you can look
    at and manage termination messages, and you can also
    keep them for a long time.
Error analysis
    Short text of error message:
    GP: Control Framework returned an error; contact system administrator
    Long text of error message:
     Diagnosis
         The Graphical Framework is based on the basis technology known as
         the Control Framework. A method in the Control Framework returned
         an error.
     Procedure
         It probably involves a programming error. You should contact your
         system administrator.
     Procedure for System Administration
         Check the programming of the graphics proxy especially for the
         parameters that were sent and, if necessary, correct your program.
    Technical information about the message:
    Message class....... "APPLG"
    Number.............. 229
    Variable 1.......... " "
    Variable 2.......... " "
    Variable 3.......... " "
    Variable 4.......... " "
How to correct the error
    Probably the only way to eliminate the error is to correct the program.
    If the error occures in a non-modified SAP program, you may be able to
    find an interim solution in an SAP Note.
    If you have access to SAP Notes, carry out a search with the following
    keywords:
    "MESSAGE_TYPE_X" " "
    "CL_AWB_OBJECT_NET_SAPGUI======CP" or "CL_AWB_OBJECT_NET_SAPGUI======CM005"
    "PBO"
    If you cannot solve the problem yourself and want to send an error
    notification to SAP, include the following information:
    1. The description of the current problem (short dump)
       To save the description, choose "System->List->Save->Local File
    (Unconverted)".
    2. Corresponding system log
       Display the system log by calling transaction SM21.
       Restrict the time interval to 10 minutes before and five minutes
    after the short dump. Then choose "System->List->Save->Local File
    (Unconverted)".
    3. If the problem occurs in a problem of your own or a modified SAP
    program: The source code of the program
       In the editor, choose "Utilities->More
    Utilities->Upload/Download->Download".
   4. Details about the conditions under which the error occurred or which
   actions and input led to the error.
Thanks,
Eswari.

Foreach Loop Container with a Data Flow Task looking for file from Connection Manager

So I have a Data Flow Task within a Foreach Loop Container. The Foreach Loop Container has a Variable Mapping of User:FileName to pass to the Data Flow Task.
The Data Flow Task has a Flat File Source since we're looking to process .csv Files. And the Flat File Source has a Flat File Connection Manager where I specified the File name when I created it. I thought you needed to do this even though it won't really
use it since it should be getting its File name from the Foreach Loop Container. But when attempting to execute, it is blowing up because it seems to be looking for my test file name that I indicated in the Flat File Connection Manager rather than the file
it should be trying to process in User:FileName from the Foreach Loop Container.
What am I doing wrong here??? I thought you needed to indicate a File name within the Flat File Connection Manager even though it really won't be using it.
Thanks for your review...I hope I've been clear...and am hopeful for a reply.
PSULionRP

The Flat File Connection manager's Connection String needs to be set to reference the variable used in the ForEach Loop:

How data flow when SSIS packages are run on a different server than the DB server

The scenario is that i have a dedicated SQL SErver 2014 SSIS machine that executes the packages.
The database server is a separate machine with SQL Server 2008R2.
1) Running SSIS packages that transfer data within SQL Server 2008R2 (same machine)
2) Running SSIS packages that transfer data between 2 separate SQL Server servers.
How the data flow in these two cases and what resource is being used where? (cpu,disk,ram,network)
Elias

When you have a dedicated SSIS server, all data read flows to that server, is processed using the resources of that ETL server and then sent back over the network to the destination server.
It doesn't matter if source and destination are the same server. If you use a data flow, all data flows over the network twice.
The only exception is when you don't use a data flow, but only SQL statements. In that case, data flows only between source and destination.

Losing source-target mapping from a data flow diagram process

Hi,
When I reload a model design from an xml repository, I am losing source-target mappings from a data flow diagram process. I wonder why.
The way it goes is:
- I define a data flow diagram with information stores, processes, and flows.
- Information structures are defined from the flows and the information trickles down to processes and information stores.
- In a process, I define Source-Target Mapping by selecting a target element and then selecting the source element(s).
- I save the whole model.
- So far, the Source-Target Mapping keeps the association between target and source elements.
- If I exit from Data Modeler, the next time I reload the saved model, the Source-Target Mapping target to source elements associations are lost!?
Does anyone have the same issue or would know how to resolve it?
Thanks,
/Mario

F4 help and data flow

Hi,
I created online sale order interactive form using ABAP. In web dynpro component I maintained Display type as native. In the form Layout type as ZCI layout. In form layout I drag and drop the Value help button and Submit button form web dynpro native tab. Now buttons are working but data flow is not happening so I am not able to create sales order.
But if I use Display type as ActiveX ,form Layout as Standard, Buttons From Webdynpro activeX. In this case f4 help is not working but data flow was happening so I am able create sales order. I need f4 help and as well as I should able to create sales order.
So please help me.
Thanks & Regards,
Krishna,

Hi Mohan,
For ZCI Layout in the Designer have you inserted the WebDynpro Script. If not goto Layout Designer and in the WebDynpro Tool Bar goto Utilities->(select) Insert WebDynpro Script.
To check whether the Script is inserted or not, goto Palette->Heirarchy of Adobe Form Toolbar and in Heirarchy scroll down to Variables, in the variables you'll find one script object i.e. "containerFoundation_JS". If this is present then it will work.
If it is not inserted then use the Report FP_ZCI_UPDATE.

SSIS Data flow item does not show on the Tools Choose Tools Item

I would like to add share point to my data source for my SSIS project.
After I installed Share Point Source and Destination list, I went to Tools Choose Tools Item, but SSIS Data Flow tab does not show. I went to SSIS Tools box, but the components are not there.
I would like to know are there any way to add Share Point Data source using SSIS.
Your help and information is great appreciated,
I use SQL Server 2012 and VS 2010.
Regards,
Souris,

Hi Souris,
I have installed the SharePointListAdaptersSetup-Beta-2012-01-28.msi in my SQL Server 2012 test environment, the SharePoint List Source and Destination adapters is listed in the Common type items of the SSIS Toolbox. To narrow down the root cause, please
try the following steps:
Make sure the SharePointListAdapters.dll exists in the C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server\110\DTS\PipelineComponents folder.
Make sure it is installed to GAC successfully, the SharePointListAdapters.dll should exist in C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\assembly\GAC_MSIL\SharePointListAdapters\v4.0_1.2012.0.0__f4b3011e1ece9d47 folder.
Refresh the Toolbox and check the Common type items.
Since the SharePoint List Adapter is a third-party component, I would suggest you ask a question in its dedicated discussion plate:

What is the generally accepted Business Practice in developing Data Flow Edit Tasks in SSIS

We have lots of data edits that we need to create for some 3rd party data that is coming into us. Is the generally accepted business practice to perform these data edits against our database in one Stored Procedure or multiple Data Flow Tasks?
Kind of new to SSIS and just don't know what the most efficient means is to perform these edits and whether to create multiple Data Flow Tasks to perform these edits against our SQL Server Database or perform these edits in one whole SQL Server Stored Procedure.
Thanks for your review and am hopeful for a reply.

Like I have to perform some drill down edits on my 3rd party data against our SQL Server Database
Does the First Name and Last name Match?
Does the Zipcode Match?
Does the Birth Date Match?
Things of that nature. My feeling is to put it into a Stored Procedure. That way if we need to flex the matching criteria down the pike here, it's all in one place...rather than in a Stored Procedure and a Data Flow Task somewhere. Just seems to be more
logical and organized to keep it all in one place and then call the Eedit Stored Procedure from SSIS.

Data flow error in workflow runtime

I have many workflow's (standard or not) that present error in runtime.
The data flow between container task and container workflow doesn't work if one element is empty, but this element not is mandatory.
List of errors:
- ParForEach 000000
- Object FLOWITEM method EXECUTE cannot be executed
- and others...
These errors occurs if some information of the workflow container that is used in some data flow (binding definition) will be empty, the workflow will present error in the start.
List of specific error:

These errors did not occur before the Support Package SAPKB70012.

Hello Arghadip,
Yes, the attribute is empty and not is mandatory. These error occur in Standard Workflow SAP and Customer Workflow (my developments).
These error occurs if some information (attribute) of the workflow container that is used in some data flow (binding definition) will be empty.
Example: I have a SendMail step in my workflow, and the email address is one attribute from business object. Before this step (sendmail), when the previous step is concluded and if the attribute (mail address) is empty, the error ocurr's.
I believe that the email would not have to be sent for nobody, and not ocurr's an error. I think that these problem is one support package error.

Order preservation in data flow

Hi Experts,
I would like to know whether the order of data flowing through a dataflow is preserved or not.
consider the scenario as follows.
I have a source table
I fetch it to a query transform to set an error flag based on some column values(say if column1 or column2 or column3 is null then error flag is E else null)
Then I have a case statement to split the flow into two based on the error flag value( If Error flag is E then Error else success )
on both the flows i am having one table comparison each before loading it to target tables.
Since i am using sorted input option in table comparison I need the data to be sorted. Should i do it separately using one query transform each before the Table comparisons or can i use an order by in the first Query transform itself. Also If i am using the order by in the first query transform, Will this operation be pushed down to the DB?
Thanks & Regards
Alex Oommen

Hi Ramesh,
This is just a sample scenario I mentioned. The main intention is that, if the order is preserved then we can do the order by in the retrieval time itself, so that this operation can be pushed down to the DB.
Here in both the legs Error and Success, we are doing an "order by". If its possible to put the order by Q_Fetch Query so that the data retrieved itself will be sorted
