Bitbucket?

  • Hi all,

    Elementary question here, but I can't seem to find a straight answer.

    When you're working in SSIS, often times you run into a situation where you need a destination for debugging purposes or to receive data (filtered or rejected rows, for instance) just so you don't have a dangling connection - a bit bucket if you will.

    What do you use for that? I use a flat file, but that's kind of a pain, and not a great idea in some circumstances...

  • There's a custom component out there called the Trash Destination that you can download and use. Available here.

  • You can also just use a derived column component. I often do that as I build a package and put a dataviewer on the pipeline so I can keep an eye on whats coming through without having to create a connection manager each time.

    Kindest Regards,

    Frank Bazan

  • Good answers - thanks a lot!
