Script Logic

[Former Member]

In SQL scripts, how do I specify and capture a to and from selection? For instance, I want to perform calculations based ona data from a category and store it to a different category? If I use %CATEGORY_SET%, it always provides me the source category. My code is listed below:

PROMPT(COPYMOVEINPUT,[%SELECTION%] [%TO_SELECTION%],%CATEGORY_DIM%,)

In my logic, how do I read %TO_SELECTION% and assign it to desination category. I tried the following

*XDIM_MEMBER CATEGORY = %SELECTION% to %TO_SELECTION%

But it assigned category for the new records to be %TO_SELECTION%.

Any ideas is appreciated.

You can make use of the script from the standard "move from fact table.dtsx" pakcage. The %SELECTION% and %TOSELECTION% variables in the COPYMOVEINPUT gives out the where clause for the SQL sytax.

<br>

Please note the below extract from the "move from fact table.dtsx" package where you can see that the "Dump Data" (dump and load task) is making use of the SQL syntax created using the %SELECTION% to export the data. Also it makes use of %FACTCONVERSION_INSTRUCTIONS% variable for converting the data to the intended target member.

<br>

Then finally clears and loads the converted data in the system.

Try this and let me know if this helps. Thanks....

Hi,

Don't make the confusion between variable from the package with variable from script logic.

Into you Package you have to use

TASK(Execute formulas,SELECTION,%SELECTIONFILE%)

Where Selection file the system expect to be something like:

category in (...) and time in (..) and entity in (...)

So you have to replace variable 5SELECTION% with what you need.
