"Male": "Female" Multicast Transformation : This t/r creates multiple copies of i/p data. it is useful because every time we need not to go to source. ** This will improve task performance. Aggregate Transformation : It is used to convert the detailed values into aggregated data by using Aggregate functions like sum,avg,max,min,count etc. ** It is Asynchronous transformation. Example: to the i/p data from source group by deptno and perform aggregate funcs. Conversion in SSIS ; * Conversion is very important because data from flat file, excel comes to transformations in the form of string(varchar) , so we cannot perform required operations so it require to convert data. 1) Directly at source level : ** Select flat file source, right click--> show advanced editor. ** Select i/p & o/p properties tab, ...

Lesson 67: Join two datasets in SSRS by using Lookup function

How to join two datasets in SSRS by using Lookup function First create two datasets each one with a different datasource.
