ETL | From SQL into Excel using SSIS, Specific Format

I am trying to pull data from SQL into an Excel spreadsheet however, the sheet needs to show the data in a specific format.

I am using functions in SSIS to pull the data onto an excel sheet but I need further transformation to create a specific excel format

This is how I want it to look, EXCEL SPREADSHEET (see screenshot)

see image

Notice the spaces between PRODUCTA and PRODUCTB in the SKU column are BLANK.

I can load the data from SSIS into Excel, but I can not find the functions to transform the excel sheet into this format

Use the data conversion component in ssis toolbox. There change the desired format for each column

There are two approaches you can go with:

Using a derived column instead of SKU column:

If you have a row_number column (similar to TIER_PRICE shown in the image), you can simply add a derived column with as similar expression:

[TIER_PRICE] != 5 ? NULL(DT_I4) : [TIER_PRICE]

Using a Script Task

After importing data to Excel, you can write a C# Script Task and use a library like Microsoft.Interop.Excel to apply the transformation you need.
