SQL Creating Error Log Table Benefits
We are conducting a datawarehouse project, moving data from Staging database to Kimball Data Warehouse.
What is the purpose of creating a custom stored procedure Error Log Table?
I am seeing a lot of websites recommend this.
SQL server already has an Error log table in SSMS (Option a).
So why create another error log table, seems like additional coding? (Option b). I can even customize error messages using both options, SELECT @ErrMsg = 'testabcd'. Can someone explain? Thank you,
(a) Error Log Table
(b) Stored Procedure
https://www.tech-recipes.com/rx/53462/sql-server-error-logging-and-reporting-within-a-stored-procedure/
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[ErrorLogTable]
(
[ErrorID] [bigint] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,
[ErrorNumber] [nvarchar](50) NOT NULL,
[ErrorDescription] [nvarchar](4000) NULL,
[ErrorProcedure] [nvarchar](100) NULL,
[ErrorState] [int] NULL,
[ErrorSeverity] [int] NULL,
[ErrorLine] [int] NULL,
[ErrorTime] [datetime] NULL
);
CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[ErrorLogInsert]
AS
INSERT INTO [ErrorLogTable]
(
ErrorNumber
,ErrorDescription
,ErrorProcedure
,ErrorState
,ErrorSeverity
,ErrorLine
,ErrorTime
)
VALUES
(
ERROR_NUMBER()
,ERROR_MESSAGE()
,ERROR_PROCEDURE()
,ERROR_STATE()
,ERROR_SEVERITY()
,ERROR_LINE()

);
