Here is one possible way of loading this file into SQL Server. Below shown example reads the contents of EDI 823 Lockbox file and loads into multiple tables along with the relationship. I am sure that there are other better ways of doing this. This is just one example of loading an EDI file into SQL Server.
The example reads the EDI file line by line and then splits them based on the character asterisk (*). The script component assigns the value to the variables in the Script Component to populate the tables. After the data is populated by the Data Flow Task
, the Execute SQL Task
will update the ParentId column in the tables dbo.AMT
, dbo.DTM
, dbo.QTY
and dbo.REF
using the stored procedure dbo.UpdateHierarchy
. The table 'ISA' contains the data of all other segments. Screenshots show how the data is stored in the child tables.
SetId
columns used in all the tables will group data of a file in order to avoid wrong parent id being referred from data pulled from another file. SetId
will be unique for each file loaded into these tables.
Step-by-step process:
Create 5 tables named dbo.AMT
, dbo.DTM
, dbo.ISA
, dbo.QTY
and dbo.REF
and a stored procedure named dbo.UpdateHierarchy
in the database using the scripts provided under SQL Scripts section. Tables AMT
, DTM
, QTY
and REF
will store the data of the segments named similarly and the table ISA
will contain all other segment data.
Create an OLE DB Connection
named SQLServer to connect to the SQL Server instance and create a Flat File Connection
named Source
as shown in screenshots #""1"" - #4. Flat File connection will use the EDI file. Remove the Column delimiter
because the file has varying number of elements. This example will split the elements using the Script Component
.
On the SSIS package, create 5 variables as shown in screenshot #5. Also, place a Data Flow task
and an Execute SQL Task
on the Control Flow
tab of the package as shown in screenshot #5.
Configure the Data Flow Task with Flat File Source
, Script Component
, Multicast
, Conditional Split
and 5 OLE DB Destinations
as shown in screenshot #6.
Configure the Flat File Source
to read the EDI file using the Flat File connection name Source
.
Configure the Script Component
as Transformation task as shown in screenshots #7 and #8. Create all the other variables using the names and data types using the data provided under Script Component Variables section. Replace the class ScriptMain present within the Script Component Transformation
task with the code provided under Script Component Code.
Configure the Conditional Split
as shown in screenshot #9.
Configure the OLE DB Destination
AMT to insert data into the table dbo.AMT
and map fields as shown in screenshot #10.
Configure the OLE DB Destination
QTY to insert data into the table dbo.QTY
and map fields as shown in screenshot #11.
Configure the OLE DB Destination
REF to insert data into the table dbo.REF
and map fields as shown in screenshot #12.
Configure the OLE DB Destination
DTM to insert data into the table dbo.DTM
and map fields as shown in screenshot #13.
Configure the OLE DB Destination
Other to insert data into the table dbo.ISA
and map fields as shown in screenshot #14.
On the Data Flow tab, configure the Execute SQL Task
as shown in screenshot #15.
Screenshots #16 and #17 shows sample package execution. File data used for testing this example is provided under section EDI File Content
.
Screenshot #18 shows data in table dbo.AMT
in comparison with data in table dbo.ISA
.
Screenshot #19 shows data in table dbo.QTY
in comparison with data in table dbo.ISA
.
Screenshot #20 shows data in table dbo.REF
in comparison with data in table dbo.ISA
.
Screenshot #21 shows data in table dbo.DTM
in comparison with data in table dbo.ISA
.
Hope that helps.
