    Hi ,

    I am importing data from xls to SQL serevr. I have done this using derived transformation as there were some datatype conversions needed. Now i want to populate another column of the destination table with data from another table. ex. count of users in DRUSER table should be imported as user(integer value) in destination table. How can i do this in the same SSIS package ?

    Regards

    Have a look at the MERGE JOIN transformation - maybe that can do what you need. Difficult to know for sure without seeing examples of your data.

    So you want the same value in every row?

    That's fairly easy - here's how.

    Create a package scope integer variable to hold the count.

    Create an Execute SQL task to run the Count query and assign the result to the variable. Put this before your DF.

    In your DF, add a derived column and assign its value from the variable.

    Map the derived column to your required destination.
