What are the differences between sql override and update override?..

Answer / Rinki

SQL Override and Update Override are both techniques used in ETL processes to handle data conflicts, but they operate slightly differently:n
1. SQL Override: In this method, a SQL statement is executed before or after the data integration process to resolve conflicts between source and target systems. The SQL statement can be used to update, delete, or insert rows as needed.
2. Update Override: Unlike SQL Override, Update Override performs updates directly on the target system without involving a SQL statement. This method replaces existing data in the target system with the updated data from the source system if there is a conflict.

Hi, I've a mapping with flat file source The target update override property for the target table is using update stmt. There is no update strategy between source and target. Also The session has the target properties as Insert , Update as update options checked. Does this mean that recs will be inserted only and the update override will not be applied at all. Thanks
