i have 1000 records in my dource table, the same i have in
target ,but a new column added in target as "batchno", and
this column adds no 10 for 1st 100 records and 20 for next
100 records and 30 next 100 records and vice versa. how to
acheive this?

Answer / srini

SQ>>EXP>>>TAR

Generate seq in exp and check for condition like

iif(seq<100,10,iif(seq>100 and seq<=200,20,iif(seq>200 and seq<=300,30,40)))

Answer / rocky!!

Here is another answer.
--> SEQ1
SD --> SQ --> EXP --> EXP --> TGT
--> SEQ2

1) Add SEQ1. Keep Starting value as 1 with cycle attribute set in after end value 100.
2) Add Another SEQ2. This is to keep a tab on the record count on the incoming data flow.
3) Get NEXTVAL & NEXTVAL1 from SEQ1 and SEQ2 and dump it in EXP.
4) in EXP, add Varibale port "V_OUTPUT_DECISION" and write code "CEIL(NEXTVAL1/100)"
5) in EXP, add variable "V_BATCH_NO" and initialise value as 10.
6) in EXP, add output port "OUTPUT_DECISION_BATCH_NO" and write code as "V_OUTPUT_DECISION*V_BATCH_NO"
7) connect fields viz, YEAR, DESC, MONTH, SALARY and BATCHNO to Target.

I guess this is the generic code. Bring any number records, should work.

Cheers!!

Answer / santosh

Please follow the below step.

1.Create sequence geneteor which will start with 1.
2.Connect the nextval port to expression t/p.
3.connect port from sq transformation to expression t/p.
4.Create below port in the expression transformation.
a. NEXTVAL_OUT(Variable port)= NEXTVAL-1
b.rec_con(Variable port)= IIF(NEXTVAL_OUT % 100 = 0, REC_CON+10,REC_CON)
c. REC_CON_OUT(Out put port)= rec_con

5. If you have primary key on the target table then use update startegy t/r to update the targer.
6. If you don't have primary key on the target table then use update voerride in the properties tab of the target.
7. U can use the below query to update the target by update override.
UPDATE EMP_UPDATE SET REC_COUNT = :TU.REC_COUNT WHERE EMPID = :TU.EMPID

Please correct me if anything wrong.

Thanks and Regards

Answer / nitin

Source->SQ->Sequence->Exp->Target

In Sequence Generator:
Give Start Value = 1
End value = 100
Check the Properties as CYCLE.

Give the following condition In Expression Transformation:\
O_SEQUENCE= NEXT_VAL
COUNT = IIF(O_SEQUENCE > 1 AND O_SEQUENCE <= 100, COUNT+10)

Make the default value of COUNT as 0

Answer / rajkumar

it's just like a simple pass.But we have to use an
expresion in between source and target we have to continue
the loop of variable port has to continue for every 100
records.

CANNOT USE PARAMETER FILE! Hi all, I am trying to use parameter file for my workflow. This could help me to filter records where CITY = 'Portland' Following is what I have done: **in Designer - create new parameter : $$PARA_FIL, Parameter, String, IsExprVar=TRUE, Initial value = [empty] - Source Qualifier/ Properties/Source Filter: CUSTOMERS.CITY='$$PARA_FIL' **Create Parameter file: C:\Informatica\PowerCenter8.6.0 \server\infa_shared\BWParam\DynamicParamTest.txt $$PARA_FIL='Portland' **Configure workflow to use the parameter file: Edit Workflow/Properties/Parameter Filename: C:\Informatica\PowerCenter8.6.0 \server\infa_shared\BWParam\DynamicParamTest.txt I also configured directory of parameter file for session task. However, I just got this in the session log: [SQ_CUSTOMERS] SQL Query [SELECT CUSTOMERS.CUSTOMER_ID FROM CUSTOMERS WHERE CUSTOMERS.CITY='$$PARA_FIL'] No record has been loaded to target. It seems that the parameter file has not been read. I cannot understand the reason why. Could any of you kindly suggest me anything? Thanks
