Hello,

I have the below table:

CityID CityName CostOfLiving
1 Mumbai 5000
1 Bangalore 4500
1 Chennai 4800
2 Vapi 6000
3 New Delhi 8000

I am passing the rows of the above table through the
aggregator transformation in Informatica

What happens in the following conditions:
1) I specify no group-by ports?
2) I specify a group-by on CityID without making any
separate post for aggregation? Which city and costofliving
will this eventually take for CityID=1?
3) Rest being same as point 2,I take the sum of cost of
living.Which city will be returned for ID=1?

Thanks for your help!
