Problem is as simple Client want to store executable sql task queries result in Excel file.I have set full result set as a object but cant consume that object anywhere.
You need to export data from SQL Server to Excel using SSIS, right? In SSIS, you need to create a data flow task. Inside the data flow task you need an OLEDB data source or an ADO.NET data source. Then you need an Excel destination. Connect the source and destination and configure the mappings and other settings. More detailed instructions can be found in this tutorial: https://codingsight.com/export-data-from-sql-server-to-excel-and-text-file-via-using-ssis-package/
Add a Data Flow Task that contains a Script Component Source where you generate output rows from the recordset and an Excel Destination:
Using The SSIS Object Variable As A Data Flow Source
Implementing Recordset Source
On the other hand, you can simply use the SQL Command that you are executing in the Execute SQL Task in an OLE DB Source which is more simple.

I am working on a little Power BI Project. The data source for this project is mostly excel files with untransformed dynamic data.
Initially I used these Excel sheets as the data source and transformed them in PowerQuery prior to building the datamodel. However, now there is a need to load the historical data into SQL server and connect Power BI to SQL as the data source.
Since the source files are not cleaned and transformed prior to importing them into Power Query, I cannot import them directly using the SSIS package - foreachloop container for multiple dynamic files.
Is there a way I can get the data back into SQL Server from PowerQuery after transformation? Is this where PowerQuery Source come into picture? What does it do exactly?
It seems that PowerQuery Source will be the best choice in your case. There is a good article on Microsoft explaining it.
You will need to to three steps:
For each file which you use as a source, create a connection with PowerQuery type in SSIS connection manager;
Using PowerQuery source, copy the full query from Power BI advanced query editor to the "Query" field in the source settings;
On "Connection Managers" tab of the source, map each power query source (each file) with the corresponding connection which you created in step 1.
The output of this source is a list of columns which you can write to the DB using usual data flow task appraoch (like mapping this source to OLE DB destination)
I have an excel file with some columns as shown below.
I am using it as Excel Source in SSIS package.
I have Unpivotted the columns 2012, 2013 and 2014 using Unpivot Transform whose results look like
How can I send the output of this Unpivot Transform out of its data flow and Excecute SQL Task on it or send it to another Data Flow in the same package for various transformations? I do not want to use the option of writing the output of Unpivot Transform into OLEDB Destination and then Read them Back.
Thanks in Advance.
If you need to execute an SQL query on the Excel data, you can do this inside the DataFlow Task using an OLEDB Command transformation (The OLE DB Command transformation runs an SQL statement for each row in a data flow.)
Or you can use a RecordSet Destination to store data in a In-Memory Table (Table variable) and use it outside the DataFlow Task
You can follow the following links to learn more:
SSIS OLE DB Command Transformation
Microsoft Docs - OLE DB Command Transformation
Use a Recordset Destination
Is there any way out there in SSIS, through which I can be able to get data first, and, then use that data inside my Script Task to generate a sqlite file.
You can use an OLE DB Connection and an OLE DB Source together to pull data out from SQL Server. Add an script task, configure it as a destination task,set the input columns an ad the code necessary to fill your sqlite tables.
I am using OLE DB data source component as a part of data flow task, but I would like to keep the sql query in an external file and not embedded in the task itself. Is there an easy way to accomplish this?
You could use a script task in your control flow to extract the sql query from the file and store it in a string variable. You could then use the variable as a source for you ole db data source component.
How can I make identical output from a transformation go to two separate places e.g., an OLE DB destination and a DataReader destination?
Background:
I have an existing package that reads data from a text file, does some transformations, and loads the data into a SQL Server table.
Now I'm trying to make the package be callable from a reporting services report (SSRS). I'm following the instructions here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms159215.aspx
It says to make my data go into a DataReader destination and then the report will have access to that. So I want the output of the final transformation to go to both the SQL table, and the DataReader destination.
Use the MULTICAST and send to a "DataReader destination" and "OLEDB destination" in your SSIS package.
When you create your datasets in SSRS, you should use the name of the Output object from your SSIS package. Your dataset in the report should then populate with fields, data, etc that from the SSIS package.
Perhaps the Multicast step?
