what is difference between scd2 and scd3

Answer Posted / rashmirekha panigrahy

In SCD Type2 we keep the entire historical data in the dimension table whereas in SCD Type3 we keep partial historical data in the dimension table.

For Ex : Suppose we are having a Customer Table. Acustomer 1st staying at Los Angels. Then he is shifted to DEllas. again he is shifted to Texas.

In case of Type 2 if we are using date method it will show the location and how many days he stayed on that particular location.

Sk_C Cust_ID Cust_NM Location Start_Dt End_DT
101 200345 Williams Los Angels 01-Mar-2011 23-Jun-2012
678 200345 Williams Dellas 24-Jun-2012 12-Nov-2014
1562 200345 Williams Texas 13-Nov-2014 NULL


But In case of Type 3 we will keep only current location and previous location. Not more than that.

Sk_C Cust_ID Cust_NM Cur_Location Pre_Location
101 200345 Williams Los Angels NULL
He shifted to Dellas.
Sk_C Cust_ID Cust_NM Cur_Location Pre_Location
101 200345 Williams Dellas Los Angels
Again he shifted to Texas.
Sk_C Cust_ID Cust_NM Cur_Location Pre_Location
101 200345 Williams Texas Dellas
