Create one dummy record for each table:
from 2 source qualifiers connect a expression

different source.

Answer / balanri

Hi,

I will presume this question as generic one.
In general case when we are joining 2 tables, no need to
bother about field names of it.,joining field datatypes are
only factor needs to consider..

Hence, we have 2 possible ways in informatica for joining 2
tables:-
Join 1 :
Let say , S1, S2 => 2 source tables from same db conn.
string/server with same credentials.

T1 => target table.

S1,S2 => SQ1 => Exp1 => T1

Here, SQ1 sql will take care of joins as we code sql.

Join 2:-
In case if S1 and S2 are from two different environments or
db's.

S1,S2 => Joiner Transformation J1 => Exp1 => T1.

Joiner J1 is compatible to have all options for building
Join condition.


Thanks.
