This is part 63 of the series of article on SSIS
Introduction:
In this article we are going to see how to use Percentage Sampling transformation (Selected and Un-Selected Output) both at a same time in SSIS Packaging. Percentage sampling transformation is used to split the dataset into separate outputs based on the percent and send it to different transformations for processing the dataset. This task is specifically used for data mining; we can divide the data and send it across as per our requirement. Let’s jump start to see this sample how to set the properties of the control.
You can look into my series of article on SSIS at the url – https://f5debug.net/tutorial/ssis.php
[more]Steps:
Follow steps 1 to 3 on my first article to open the BIDS project and select the right project to work on integration services project. Once the project is created, we will see how to use the Percentage sampling to see the flow. Now once the projects is opened drag and drop a source and a Percentage sampling task as shown in the screen below
We can see some red marks on each task which indicates that the tasks are not configured. We need to configure each task so that while execution we can have a smooth process.
Now let’s configure each and every task to execute the package. First let us start with the OLEDB Source as shown in the screen below
Now go to the mappings tab and see the list of columns in the source table which are mapped correctly as shown in the screen below
Now we are done with the source, we need to configure the percentage sampling task now. To do that double click on the task will open the window as shown in the screen below
Here we need to specify the percentage of rows to be affected in this transformation and to proceed further. In our sample we are going to select as 40 as shown in the screen below
Now we are done with the Percentage sampling task, we need to configure the destination section where the results are expected. To do that drag and drop the green arrow to the destination task which we created earlier. It will open a configuration window to select the output name from the percentage sampling task as shown in the screen below. Since we have 2 destinations in our package now we will send across the Selected Output and the unselected output based on our requirement as shown in the screen below
Now we need to select out of the 2 properties which one exactly we require based on our requirement. Here we are going to select as shown in the screen below
Now our screen will have both the Selected and the unselected output as shown in the screen below
Now we need to configure the destination excel as shown in the screens below which is self-explanatory.
Since we have one more destination which is the Flat File destination we need to configure that as well as shown in the below screens
Now we are ready with our package. We need to build and execute it to see the desired result. So our screen will look like below.
Now to build and execute press F5 and we can see the result window as shown in the screen below with the amount of rows affected for each destination’s.
We can see the number of rows affected and used across. To see the result in the excel navigate to the path where we configured our destination and open the excel and the notepad, we can see the result as shown in the screen below
Conclusion:
So in this article we have seen how to use the Percentage Sampling to execute dataset and split based on the percent and uses it across the requirement.

Thanks for finally talking about > < Liked it!|
Hey! I know this is somewhat off topic but I was wondering which blog platform are you using for this site? I'm getting sick and tired of WordPress because I've had problems with hackers and I'm looking at alternatives for another platform. I would be awesome if you could point me in the direction of a good platform.|
