hi all
very much new to integration services so just looking some info to get me moving..
we create a forecast which looks forward 53 weeks.
eg
StockCode 29/08/2011 05/09/2011 12/09/2011
A 0 0 0
B 102 94 94
what i want to be able to do is take this excel document, process it and store it in an sql table
my thinking is Integration services is my tool..
so i created an oledb source to read excel 2007 documents and i am them faced with the process of mapping external columns to output columns, and then i realise - how do i map 29/08/2011 to an output column!?
so i look and see options in integration services such as data flow transformations..
assuming the first week will always start in the same column and always be 53 weeks long,
is there something here that will help me process what is an external column into a field value of an output column?
eg
External data output
StockCode 29/08/2011 12/09/2011 StockCode week Qty
A 50 45 A 29/08/2011 50
A 12/09/2011 45
any help/advice appreciated
cheers
