Including external script mid SQL Load Script

Hi.

I'm working on updating a QV script that someone created for me, but now I'm managing. I'd like to be able to have our SQL Load script reference an external SQL script file from inside of the SQL Load script.

Here is a mock template of what we have now. I'd like lines 6 thought 10 to be an external SQL script. We update this script routinely on a separate server that feeds other QV apps. By having one centralized Department Naming script, we don't have to change each QV load script.

SQL

with cohort as

(

Select

     Patient_ID,

     VISIT_KEY,

     DEPARTMENT_NAME,

     DEPARTMENT_KEY,

     CASE    WHEN DEPARTMENT_NAME =   

          (several conditions to rename and categorize the departments)

     END AS "Location"

     [Several other colums]

FROM

{Series of Joins]

Where

)

SELECT

Patient_ID

     VISIT_KEY,

     DEPARTMENT_NAME,

     DEPARTMENT_KEY,

     "Location"

FROM cohort

     [Joins]

Thus, lines 6-10 would like this in a separate script file.

Select

     DEPARTMENT_NAME,

     DEPARTMENT_KEY,

     CASE    WHEN DEPARTMENT_NAME =   

          (several conditions to rename and categorize the departments)

     END AS "Location"

     [Several other colums]
