Dear BPC Experts,
This question may not be directly related with BPC, but I am sure some of you might have faced this question by client.
I am working on BPC 7.5 MS and the data base is SQL 2008
My Client has asked me to design a SSIS package to automate Dimension Update processes. The first step is create a trigger that would execute the package. This trigger has to be designed on data source file (i.e. flat file) so that it can track the changes & execute the 'Automate Dimension update package'. I suggested following option to client to design the trigger, but non of them is acceptable to client and they are looking for a .cmd file based trigger
Suggestion 1- Use 'File Watcher Task' in control flow of package. This task will trigger all changes in file - Not acceptable to client
Suggestion 2 - Build a query on change data and then design a package on this query with T-SQL Script to assign data to respective dimension - Not acceptable to client
Client want me to design a trigger based on .cmd file. Now I am not familiar with .cmd file. Kindly guide me on following
1 - What is .cmd file.
2 - What script/command I need to write to trigger the package
3 - Where do in need to save this file
4 - Any additional information required for me to complete this task.
Regards,
Rahul
