How can i catch the Duplicate Rows From SorterTrans in a Seperate Target Table ?..

Answer / krithi

When you use 'Select Distinct' option , the Sorter
Transformation discards the duplicate records.

If you want to trace out the duplicate records, then send
the sorted data into Expression Transformation. Add a new
variable and compare the variable with the input data. If
the data matches then flag the record or else pass the
default row.And load all the flagged records into a
seperate table.

Answer / sudhar

You can use distinct to eliminate the duplicate records.

Otherwise if you wanted to send the duplicate records to
another table then sort the data, then using the expression
you can find the duplicate value, assign different constant
values for the duplicate and the normal one. Use the router
to send duplicate and orginal records to the different
target tables.
