File System Task Move and rename files in one step. UPDATE: I have included a link to download the sample package at the end of the post! In some ETL scenarios, when processing files, it is necessary to rename the already processed files and move them to a different location. In SSIS you can accomplish that in a single step using the File System Task. The example I have prepared assumes the package will process a set of files using a For. Each Loop container; then for each file, using the 'Rename' operation in File System Task will do both; rename and move the file. Here are some screen shots and notes about the package: First of all, the big picture. The control flow has a For. Each Loop Container with a File System Task inside. Notice that the Data. Flow task is empty and it is intended to show where the real ETL work should go; but this can be different or not required at all. Then details about the For. Each Loop container. Basically ,this container is configured to process all *. C: \Temp\Source folder, where all the files 'to be processed' are expected to be. The Script task is a multi-purpose tool that you can use in a package to fill almost any requirement that is not met by the tasks included with Integration Services. Inside of a Script Task in SSIS, I need to make a call to an SQL database. I have a connection string that was created when I added the database to the data sources. Now the trick, few variables, some of them using expressions: The expressions are: in Full. Source. Path. File. By using table variables as parameters, you can make code maintenance easier. Previously I’ve wrote about design and implementation an UPSERT with SSIS. UPSERT is about Update existing records, and Insert new records. From a new SSIS project in SQL Server Data Tools (SSDS), add a new Data Flow Task to the Control Flow tab and rename “Insert and Update Records.”. Previously I’ve wrote about design and implementation an UPSERT with SSIS. UPSERT is about Update existing records, and Insert new records. Today I want to extend.
