Hi all,
I have two tasks, where the second task is dependant on the first (currently by a "successful reload of...."). I am looking for a good way to only have the second task execute when the first task's sql query finds new delta data. This is done by running a simple SQL query and comparing a date/time field with a QVD stored date/time from the last load. Only when they differ should the first task continue building all the other QVD files, and then the second job will also run to republish the QVW file. Otherwise, the first job should immediately quit, the second job should not run, and it will try again in another 30 minutes.
Any idea of a good structure to do this? Currently I thow in a bad statement (loading from a table that does not exist) in the Else condition that causes the first job to immediately fail.
Server version: QV 10 SR 3 (10.00.9070.7)
UPDATE**********
My Script is currently set up like this:
LASTLOADED:
sql select G.LAST_COMPLTD_FISCAL_DT
FROM CURRENT_DATES_V;
LASTLOADED2:
LOAD LAST_COMPLTD_FISCAL_DT AS OLD_DATE
FROM
..\QVD\LASTLOADED.qvd
(qvd);
let load_check = peek('LAST_COMPLTD_FISCAL_DT',0,'LASTLOADED');
let load_check_old = peek('OLD_DATE',0,'LASTLOADED2');
if load_check > load_check_old then
//Do all remaining SQL Queries
ELSE
trace( 'No New Data');
load [ThisThrowsAnError] FROM ../DATA/NotExistingTable.txt(txt);
end if
