Built-in documentation for SSIS packages
1 answer
This is pretty low tech, but we put the limited SSIS documentation in annotations inside the package (right click on any unoccupied part of the design area in the Flow Control, Data Flow, or Error Handler tab and select Add Annotation
).
There's a limit to how much you can usefully fit into these fields, especially on complex packages, so the detailed documentation goes to Word.
If there is a better way to add inline documentation I would like to know about it.
