Can SSIS work with an XML web service? (Verisign Payflow Pro)

I'm trying to figure out a solution for posting financial transactions against our Payflow Pro (Verisign) payment gateway (web service) using SSIS. The process I have in my mind goes like this...

1.) Select the appropriate records from our financial system DB.

2.) Iterate through each record and post the pertinent values against the payment gateway web service.

3.) Create log files for successful and failed transactions.

The log files would then be manually imported into our financial system.

Thanks in advance.

There is no web service or XML data flow destination, unfortunately. You could write a custom destination component to call your web service.|||

Not entirely true... You can stick a Web service task in a foreach loop that spins through the recordset. Then you merely map the appropriate variables to the Web service.

This is done on the control flow, though, so you'd need to perhaps stage your data first in the data flow and then select it with an Execute SQL task to load up your ADO recordset.|||My bad, I was focused on the data flow. Good approach.|||Great info! I'll look into that.

Can SQL express be accessed by Oracle Transparent Gateway ?

Able to access SQL express remotely using SQL mgt Studio after certain configuration.

But notice that I must use IP address/SQLEXPRESS for server name in order for connection to work. What is this "/SQLEXPRESS" ? Is it a standard surfix for SQL Express ?

I have installed the Oracle Transparent Gateway on the machine with SQL Express and setup the tnsname for SQL Express. For the tnsname, have used IP address/SQLEXPRESS as the host name but it gave this error :

ORA-28545: NCRO Failed to make RSLV connection

Tried with just the IP address and it gives the same error.

Any idea ? ? Help !

Hi,

What is this "/SQLEXPRESS"

That si the instance name, as you can deploy several instances (liek in Oracle on one machine, with the difference that one instance can have more than one database :-) ), the instances are bound to a port, if it is not the default port (1433), you have to specify it, either within the connectionstring are in your Gui.

HTH, Jens Suessmeyer.
