In this article, we’ll revisit the dimension models we created. We wrote the entire SQL statement for the dimension by hand, and the dimensions themselves were very rudimentary; they lacked a surrogate key and there were no audit columns (such as insert date and update date). We’ll show you how we can expand the dimensions using Jinja, but also how we can minimize development effort by baking reusable patterns into the Jinja code.

I am currently working with Sql Server 2022 and AdventureWorks database. First of all, let's set the "Read Committed Snapshot" to ON:
use master; go alter database AdventureWorks set read_committed_snapshot on with no_wait; goThen, from Session 1, I execute the following code:
--Session 1 use AdventureWorks; go create table ##t1 (id int, f1 varchar(10)); go insert into ##t1 values (1, 'A');From another session, called Session 2, I open a transaction and execute the following update:
--Session 2 use AdventureWorks; go begin tran; update ##t1 set f1 = 'B' where id = 1;Now, going back to Session 1, what happens if I execute this statement?
--Session 1 select f1 from ##t1 where id = 1;See possible answers
