I had a situation where I was using a conditional split, so that when data was coming in from my source tables it would dynamically go into the correct partitioned table.

 

Below is the script that I used, as well as for reference the conditional split

 

— ==================================================================================================================

— What we are doing here is to create a Proc so that we can get the PartitionNames going back 12 months.

— While for the first time this is a manual process this can be used for other Parition Schemes going foward.

— The only thing that will need to change if the Partition Naming convention is the same is the Partition name

— ==================================================================================================================

 

— ==================================================================================================================

— 1. Here we are getting our current partition naming scheme into a variable.

— Example of partition scheme: Mart_TF_InternetSales_2014_02

— ==================================================================================================================

Declare@PartitionNameasvarchar(30)

Set@PartitionName=

       (

              Select‘Mart_TF_InternetSales_’

       )

 

— ==================================================================================================================

— 2. Here we are getting our Current Month Details.

— NOTE: We are using our Date Dimension to get our Year and Month, we are then replacing the dash “-” with an

—       underscore “_” as per our Parition Naming Scheme.

— ==================================================================================================================

Declare@CurrentMonthNameasvarchar(8)

Set@CurrentMonthName=

       (

              SelectReplace(YearMonth,‘-‘,‘_’)

                                                       fromMart_TD_Datewith (nolock)

                                                       whereFullDate=convert(date,dateadd(ms,+0,DATEADD(mm,DATEDIFF(m,0,getdate()  )-0, 0)))

       )

 

— ==================================================================================================================

And here is the conditional split

NOTE: The reason that it is in RED is because I changed the actual datetime column that I have in my dataset.

NOTE 2: Normally this would be black to indicate that there are no conditional errors
