For Each Database Record

Record Set Source

• Use database integration record set: Specifies the record set from the database integration that is used for the record set source. Available only when the parent integration is a database integration.

• Use variable as record set source: Specifies the variable that is used as the record set source.  By default, this is EventData.

  When no other actions precede the For Each Database Record action, this option appears as a list whose only entry is the default EventData variable. Otherwise, additional variables may be available. For example, when the parent integration is anything other than a database integration and you add a Transform Text to Record Set or Execute SQL action and then configure that action to save the record set to a different variable, that variable also appears in the Use variable as record set source list.

Database Fields

• Field Variable Name Prefix: Specifies the prefix that is added to the field's variable name.

• Field Variable Name Postfix: Specifies the suffix that is added to the field's variable name.

Action

• Name: Specifies the name of the action. You can replace the default name by entering a new name in the field.

• Description: Specifies a description for the action.

• Run Action: Specifies how often you want to run the action.

  • Always: Specifies that the Integration Service runs the action each time it runs the integration.

  • Never: Specifies that the Integration Service does not run the action when it runs the integration.

  • Conditionally, based on variable: Specifies that the Integration Service runs the action only when a selected variable meets a specified condition. Use this option in situations in which there is only one condition that determines whether the action runs. After you select this option, you can create the conditional statement in the input box.

    Input box controls

    • Variable: Specifies the variable that you want to use for the conditional statement. Enter the variable in the input box. Click to see a list of recently used variables or click More Variables to open the Insert Variable dialog.

    • [Relational Operator]: Specifies the relational operator to use for the conditional statement. Click the existing operator to display a list of additional operators, and then click the one that you want to use. For more information, refer to Relational Operators. The operators that are available in the list depend on whether you selected Text or Decimal for the Type option.

    • Value: Specifies the values to use for the conditional statement. To add a value, click , click <enter a value>, enter the value that you want, and then press Enter. To delete a value, use the secondary mouse button to click it, and then click Delete. Some operators, such as Is blank and Is not blank, do not require a value to be specified. In these situations, the Value field is not available.

    • Type: Specifies whether the conditional statement is evaluating a text or decimal value.

       

  • Conditionally, based on expression: Specifies the conditions under which the Integration Service runs the action. Use this option for situations that require more than one conditional statement. When you select this option, you can create the conditional expression in the input box by creating the conditional statements that you want. You create and edit your conditional expression on the Tree View tab. Click the Text View tab to see a read-only text view of the conditional expression.

    Input box controls (Tree View tab)

    • [Conditional Joiner]: Specifies the conditional joiner for the conditional statements within the group. The default conditional joiner is And.

      Click the existing conditional joiner to display a menu that enables you to configure your conditional expression in one of the following ways:

      • And, Or, NotAnd, NotOr: Click the conditional joiner in the list that you want to use for the conditional statements. For more information about the supported conditional joiners, refer to Conditional Joiners.

      • Add Condition: Click to add another conditional statement to the current group.

      • Add Group: Click to add a subgroup of conditional statements to the current group.

      • Remove Group: Click to delete the subgroup. Available when you open the menu from a subgroup.

      • Clear All: Click to delete all conditional statements (including subgroups). Available when you open the menu from the top-most group.

    • : Adds a conditional statement to the group that is associated with that joiner. Visible to the right of each conditional joiner in your expression.

    • :  Deletes the conditional statement. Visible to the right of an existing conditional statement when you point to the statement.

    • Variable: Specifies the variable that you want to use for the conditional statement. Enter the variable in the input box. Click to see a list of recently used variables or click More Variables to open the Insert Variable dialog.

    • [Relational Operator]: Specifies the relational operator to use for the conditional statement. Click the existing operator to display a list of additional operators, and then click the one that you want to use. For more information, refer to Relational Operators. The operators that are available in the list depend on whether you selected Text or Decimal for the Type option.

    • Value: Specifies the values to use for the conditional statement. To add a value, click , click <enter a value>, enter the value that you want, and then press Enter. To delete a value, use the secondary mouse button to click it, and then click Delete. Some operators, such as Is blank and Is not blank, do not require a value to be specified. In these situations, the Value field is not available.

    • Type: Specifies whether the conditional statement is evaluating a text or decimal value.

User Account

• Inherit from parent action: Specifies that the action inherits the user account credentials that are specified on the Actions property page. Alternatively, if the action is part of a Group action, it inherits the user account credentials that are specified on the immediate parent Group action’s property page.

• Specify user credentials: Specifies that the action runs by using the credentials that are specified.

Error Handling and Diagnostics

• Ignore errors and continue running actions: Specifies that if the action fails, the remaining actions continue to run. When this option is not selected and the action fails, the resulting behavior depends on several factors, as follows:

  The action is within a Group action

  • If you specified Sequentially for the Execute Actions property on the Group action's Execution tab, no further actions within that Group action are run. No actions outside of this Group action are affected.

  • If you specified In Parallel for the Execute Actions property on the Group action's Execution tab, the errors are ignored, and the other actions within that Group action are run. No actions outside of this Group action are affected.

  The action is not within a Group action

  • If you specified Sequentially for the Execute Actions property on the Actions Execution tab, no further actions within the integration are run.

  • If you specified In Parallel for the Execute Actions property on the Actions Execution tab, the errors are ignored, and the other actions within the integration are run.
