Re: [MS_AccessPros] Re: Can an Access function initiate a .NET ETL?

 

This job runs automatically once a day. Sometimes it fails due to the file
that is sent from the financial institution, and having the job restart
will not resolve the issue. An accountant has to open the file, determine
what is the issue, and either correct the file or remove that section of
entries. Once they are done, they need a way to re-initiate the process. At
the moment we have it scheduled to run a second time during the day, but
this is less than ideal.

The SSIS can not be compiled into an exec (he says this came from
Microsoft). The DBA found a reference to kicking off a SSIS job from a
batch file, which can be called from an Access function. If anyone has any
insight into this, that would be very helpful.
