Idle curiosity: What is the purpose of the Build option in SSIS? I have a working package that is called as a daily job and it seems to be working fine. Do I need to do something else with this 'Build' option?

Hi,
Building a package is a standard Practice. When you deploye your package from Dev environment to Production environement, you should build your package, which will craete the .msi file in the default folder called \bin. Once yo get your .msi file you can go and deploy it in your Prod environment. The .msi is nothing but a manifest file.

This answer is almost completely incorrect. If you don't know the answer, please do not just guess.
All that the build option does is ensure that the package in the \bin folder is up to date and, if enabled, creates a deployment manifest file.
If you haven't even tried to resolve your issue, please don't expect the hard-working volunteers here to waste their time providing links to answers which you could easily have found yourself.
