How to enable Fast Parse in SSIS ?

Solution

Fast parse property is hidden in the depths of the advanced settings of a flat file. This property can drastically improve the performance of the SSIS package when using a flat files source or data conversion transform by basically not validating the columns that you specify.

To enable fast parse on either a flat file source or a data conversion transformation use the following steps.



·          Right-click the Flat File source or Data Conversion transformation, and then click "Show Advanced Editor".

·          In the Advanced Editor dialog box, click the "Input and Output Properties" tab.

·          In the Inputs and Outputs pane, click the column for which you want to enable fast parse.

·          In the Properties window, expand the Custom Properties node, and then set the "FastParse property" to True.
