Script Variable Usage in SQL Where Clause

Hello,

I try to make an incremental load work by first loading the current data into FAC_OND_DELEN_X from qvd and then determine the latest record and store that into a variable Start_Key.

The I load the new records from the DB2 database except the variable Start_Key in the Where Clause doesn't work.

Who can help me?

FAC_OND_DELEN_X:

LOAD*

FROM $(PAD)FAC_OND_DELEN_INC.qvd (qvd);

LET Start_Key_Inc = Max(OND_KEY);

Concatenate

FAC_OND_DELEN_NEW:

LOAD *;

SQL SELECT *

FROM DWH.FAC_OND_DELEN

Where OND_ST In(1,6,7) And OND_NR_LEVERING <> 0 And OND_KEY > $(Start_Key_Inc);  // Also Tried '$(Start_Key_Inc)'

Hi Swuehl,

I have put The Max function in a load statement and combined that with a peek function. After matching the notation of the date and adding the '' in the where clause it works like clockwork. Thanx!

FAC_OND_DELEN_X:

LOAD*

FROM $(PAD)FAC_OND_DELEN_INC.qvd (qvd);

MAXKEY:

LOAD

Date(Max(OND_PER)-1, 'DD/MM/YYYY') AS MAXDATE

Resident  FAC_OND_DELEN_X;

LET Start_Key_Inc = Date(Peek('MAXDATE',0), 'DD/MM/YYYY');

DROP Table MAXKEY;

Concatenate

FAC_OND_DELEN_NEW:

LOAD *,

   OND_YEAR & '_' & OND_OGM AS OND_YEAR_OG;

LOAD *,

   Year(OND_PER) AS OND_YEAR,

   If(Year(OND_PER) = 2015 AND OND_OG = 39, 13, OND_OG) AS OND_OGM;

SQL SELECT *

FROM DWH.FAC_OND_DELEN

Where OND_ST In(1,6,7) And OND_NR_LEVERING <> 0 And OND_PER > '$(Start_Key_Inc)';
