How to Choose Method to Transfer Data from Production to Reporting database

My current project now is how to synchronize (data transfer) between
Production Database & Reporting Database using DTS, but I have no idea
how to do it and using which the best method. Need to know, that two
database have different structure tables - of course - and have a
thousand records inside, and our transaction working 24 hours, so
that's imposible to delete all records at Reporting Database and
replace with new data. The method that I've considered now is :
[vbcol=seagreen]
- 0 : haven't transfered at all
- 1 : the record have been modified
- 2 : have transfered to Reporting database
So I only need delete all records at Reporting Services which match
record at Production have flag 1, and then transfered all records that
have flag 0 and 1.
But the weakness of my method is how to synchronize for deleted
records? Should I save the primary key of deleted records, or is there
any other method?
Please give me suggestion/comment for my method.
ThanksTo determine what records have been deleted from MyTable in the Reporting
Database, you can left join MyTable from the Reporting Database (RD) back to
the Production Database (PD) on the primary key (pkey) and select
RD.MyTable.pkey where PD.Mytable.pkey is null.
Now, to delete these records from the Reporting version of MyTable:
delete from RD.MyTable where pkey in (the above subquery)

the two tables are joined using an indexed column.
