  • I have tried the following in Derived Column Transformation editor and failed

    REPLACE(REPLACE([QuantityUnits],”(“,”-”),”)“,””)

    I don't understand whythat is not working for you in the Derived Column Transformation .

    I used exactly the same thing and works fine

    any way attached is the package for the sample data that you provided.

    After downlaoding, rename the package to .dtsx. I built this on VS2008

    Below is the table structure

    CREATE TABLE dbo.[Sample_CSV] (

    [Co] int,

    [Company Name] varchar(50),

    [Customer Number]int,

    [Customer Name] varchar(50),

    [Invoice Date] datetime,

    [Invoice] int,

    [Units] int,

    [ Invoice Price ] decimal(18,0),

    [ Total Invoice ] decimal(18,0),

    [ Accrual ] decimal(18,0),

    [ Total Accrual ] decimal(18,0)

    )
