What is active and passive transformation?

Answer Posted / baiju

When a row enters a transformation, informatica assigns a
rownumber. if this number change for a row, that's an
Active transformation. In other words the nth row comming
IN will go as n'th row, then the transformation is PASSIVE.

Sorter is an active transformation!! IT never changes
the total row count, it changes only the order!!
