If you are diving deep into SSIS you're probably familiar with the fancy string manip needed to get your file names and folder paths to line up with various date structures and formats.
Here's a few I've used recently that might come in handy. Feel free to offer improvments and supplements.
Month Date Short Year
@[User::Path]+@[User::FlatFileName] + Right("0" + (DT_STR,4,1252) DatePart("m",getdate()),2) + Right("0" + (DT_STR,4,1252) DatePart("d",getdate()),2) + RIGHT((DT_STR,4,1252)YEAR(GETDATE()),2) + ".txt"
Returns – \\UserPath\FlatFileName021013.txt
Year\Month\Day
@[User::ArchivePath] + "\\" + (DT_WSTR, 4)YEAR(GETDATE()) + "\\" + Right("0" + (DT_STR,4,1252) DatePart("m",getdate()),2) + "\\" + Right("0" + (DT_STR,4,1252) DatePart("d",getdate()),2)
Returns – \\ArchivePath\2013\02\10
Year-Month-Day
"\\\\drive\\path\\" + SUBSTRING((DT_STR, 30, 1252)GETDATE(), 1, 10) + "_" + @[User::SourceFile]
Returns – \\drive\path\2013-02-10_File.xls
Year Month Day Simple
"PrefixFile" + REPLACE(SUBSTRING((DT_STR, 30, 1252)GETDATE(), 1, 10), "-", "") + ".txt"
Returns – PrefixFile20130210.txt
Year Week Number
"FilePrefix_" + (DT_WSTR,4)YEAR(GETDATE()) + (DATEPART("week", GETDATE()) > 9 ? (DT_WSTR,2)DATEPART("week", GETDATE()) : "0" + (DT_WSTR,2)DATEPART("week", GETDATE())) + ".txt"
Returns – FilePrefix_201306.txt
Sime Date with Timestamp
Substring((DT_WSTR, 30) (DT_DBTIMESTAMP) GetDate(), 1, 16)
