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

I have fixed it. This was because in parameter file I did
not declare the name of folder, workflow and session
