Can any one suggest me

What needs to be taken care of when SSIS package is moved to production like congig file etc..

Agent need to be set up for this package to run package every month.

Any things need to be added to package,config file when moved to produciton/agent setup or when we hand over from development to production.

please let me know

Thanks

you've added configuration settings in package to take the server and other connections correctly based on environment? You can used various methods for this. either use XML file or environment variable,...

DTS packages used to make use INI files to get values for parameters. In SSIS, you can make use of package configuratin. EIther use XML file or environment variables for configuration setting.
