Rules and Guidelines for Adding Pre- and Post-Session SQL Commands

Rules and Guidelines for Adding Pre- and Post-Session SQL Commands

Use the following rules and guidelines when you enter pre- and post-session SQL commands in the target instance:
  • Use any command that is valid for the database type. However, the Integration Service does not allow nested comments, even though the database might.
  • You can use parameters and variables in the in the target pre- and post-session SQL commands. For example, you can enter a parameter or variable within the command. Or, you can use a session parameter, $ParamMyCommand, as the SQL command, and set $ParamMyCommand to the SQL statement in a parameter file.
  • Use a semicolon (;) to separate multiple statements. The Integration Service issues a commit after each statement.
  • The Integration Service ignores semicolons within /* ...*/.
  • If you need to use a semicolon outside of comments, you can escape it with a backslash (\).
  • The Designer does not validate the SQL.
You can also enter pre- and post-session SQL commands on the Properties tab of the Source Qualifier transformation.
