Load Job Time Sheet Files Control Flow

The Load Job Time Sheet control flow has a for each loop container that loops through each file name and processes the job time sheet files. At the completion of the task it sends an email notification whether load was successful or failed and adds any invalid record files as email attachments.

Load Job Time Sheet Files Data Flow

The Load Job Time Sheet data flow task reads data from a CSV file and verifies the Employee Master and Job Master exists. The task also verifies the Job Master record is not closed or work date is greater than job closed date. If the record fails validation then the time sheet record is written to an invalid file. The task performs a lookup for the job time sheet to find a match. If the data is not found then a new row is added to the table. If the data is found and the data is different then it updates the existing row. The file path for the input data and invalid logs are stored in variables FolderPathData and FolderPathLog. These values are configured in the DtsConfig file to allow for changes in the environment.



Load Job Time Sheet Files Script Task

The Main subroutine that calls functions to increment total counters in variables and add email attachments of filenames with invalid data. The routine is wrapped in a Try Catch returning a task result of success or if there is an error then firing a error event with the error message and returning a task result of failure.

Imports SystemImports System.DataImports System.MathImports System.IOImports Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime Public Class ScriptMain Public Sub Main() Try IncrementCounter("CountProcessed", "AccumProcessed") IncrementCounter("CountAddNew", "AccumAddNew") IncrementCounter("CountChanged", "AccumChanged") IncrementCounter("CountInvalidEmployee", "AccumInvalidEmployee") IncrementCounter("CountInvalidJobMaster", "AccumInvalidJobMaster") IncrementCounter("CountInvalidJobClosed", "AccumInvalidJobClosed") IncrementCounter("AccumTimeSheets") AddEmailAttachments("FolderPathLog", "FileNameInvalidEmployee", "CountInvalidEmployee", "EmailAttachments") AddEmailAttachments("FolderPathLog", "FileNameInvalidJobMaster", "CountInvalidJobMaster", "EmailAttachments") AddEmailAttachments("FolderPathLog", "FileNameInvalidJobClosed", "CountInvalidJobClosed", "EmailAttachments") Dts.TaskResult = Dts.Results.Success Catch ex As Exception Dts.Events.FireError(0, "ETL: Main", ex.Message, "", 0) Dts.TaskResult = Dts.Results.Failure End Try End Sub



Load Job Time Sheet Files Script Task (Cont’)

The script task uses function overloading with two overload methods called IncrementCounter. The first overload method accepts one string parameter and the second overload accepts two string parameters. The first call method increments the accumulator variable by 1 and is used for counting the number of files processed. The second call method increments the accumulator variable by the counter variable and is used for counting the total number of records processed. Both methods use the VariableDispensor for variable locking.

Private Function IncrementCounter(ByVal accumCounter As String) As Boolean Dim vars As Variables Try Dts.VariableDispenser.LockForWrite(accumCounter) Dts.VariableDispenser.GetVariables(vars) vars(accumCounter).Value = CInt(vars(accumCounter).Value) + 1 Catch ex As Exception Dts.Events.FireError(0, "ETL: IncrementCounter", ex.Message, "", 0) Finally vars.Unlock() End Try End Function Private Function IncrementCounter(ByVal counter As String, ByVal accumCounter As String) As Boolean Dim vars As Variables Try Dts.VariableDispenser.LockForRead(counter) Dts.VariableDispenser.LockForWrite(accumCounter) Dts.VariableDispenser.GetVariables(vars) vars(accumCounter).Value = CInt(vars(accumCounter).Value) + CInt(vars(counter).Value) Catch ex As Exception Dts.Events.FireError(0, "ETL: IncrementCounter", ex.Message, "", 0) Finally vars.Unlock() End Try End Function



Load Job Time Sheet Files Script Task (Cont’)

This script task function accepts four parameters: full folder path, file name, counter and email attachments. If the counter has a value greater than zero and the file name exists the file is appended to the email attachment variable. If the counter is zero and the file name exists then the file is deleted. The method uses the VariableDispensor for variable locking.

Private Function AddEmailAttachments(ByVal folderPath As String, ByVal fileName As String, ByVal invalidCounter As String, ByVal emailAttachments As String) As Boolean

Dim vars As Variables Try Dts.VariableDispenser.LockForRead(folderPath) Dts.VariableDispenser.LockForRead(fileName) Dts.VariableDispenser.LockForRead(invalidCounter) Dts.VariableDispenser.LockForWrite(emailAttachments) Dts.VariableDispenser.GetVariables(vars) Dim fileNameFullPath As String = CStr(vars(folderPath).Value) + CStr(vars(fileName).Value) If CInt(vars(invalidCounter).Value) <> 0 Then If File.Exists(fileNameFullPath) Then vars(emailAttachments).Value = CStr(vars(emailAttachments).Value) + fileNameFullPath + "|" End If Else If File.Exists(fileNameFullPath) Then File.Delete(fileNameFullPath) End If End If Catch ex As Exception Dts.Events.FireError(0, "ETL: AddAttachments", ex.Message, "", 0) Finally vars.Unlock() End Try End FunctionEnd Class



Load Client Master Control Flow The Load Client Master control flow task processes the County Master and Client Master data. At the completion of the task it sends an email notification whether load was successful or failed and adds any invalid record files as email attachments.



Load Client Master Data Flow

The Load Client Master data flow task reads data from an Excel file and verifies the County Master exists. If the record fails validation then the client master record is written to an invalid file. The task performs a lookup to find a match in the client master table. If the data is not found then a new row is added to the table. If the data is found and the data is different then it updates the existing row. The file path for the input data and invalid logs are stored in variables FolderPathData and FolderPathLog. These values are configured in the DtsConfig file to allow for changes in the environment.

Overhead Category Report

The Overhead Category report uses the Overhead cube and selects the data by the quarter parameter and displays the total overhead for the quarter, total overhead for the previous quarter and percent increase of overhead from previous quarter for each category. The quarter parameter for the report defaults to the most recent quarter when the report is first displayed. If there is an increase in overhead from previous quarter the percent changed values are displayed in red.



MDX Code for Overhead Category Report

MDX Query uses the Tail and Filter Function to Get the Latest Quarter for the Default Parameter
