SQL Server Functions work in SSMS but not in SSIS Derived Column

  • Hi Forum,

    I am creating a Project that will process tables of data and remove unwanted characters, Pad spaces onto the existing values and change the Date Format from YYYY-MM-DD to YYYYMMDD (and stay in Date Data Type.

    I've attached a screensshot of the code and pasted some below.

    All of these run without an issue in SSMS, not in the Derived Column Transformation in Visual Studio.

    Any ideas about what is going wrong? Thanks Peter

    REPLICATE(' ',7-LEN([DET_NUMBER])) + CAST([DET_NUMBER] AS VARCHAR(7)) as DET_NUMBER
    ,REPLACE([POS_START],'-','') AS POS_START
    ,CONVERT(VARCHAR(1000),[FILLER_01]) AS FILLER01

  • SSIS Expressions are not T-SQL. Not only are there some things in your code that don't exist in SSIS expressions (CAST, CONVERT), where there are shared function names sometimes the syntax is different. A good place to start is here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/integration-services/expressions/functions-ssis-expression?view=sql-server-2017

  • Thanks PB_BI,

    I thought it was something like that, I'll look at the link.

    Cheers Peter
