what is filelist concept in informatica

Answer Posted / shweta

When we use Flat file as a source we give the path of
directory where we store the file in Workflow.
But if we want data from multiple flat files then we put
the names of all flat files in a single file called as file
list.
In workflow mapping we give the path of list file and mark
the source filetype as INdirect as we are indirectly
accessing all the flat files.

Hi, I saw one mapping implemented by my seniors . In Expression transformation they implemented following logic. That is iif(is_date(in_UC_DATINV,'YYYYMMDD'),to_date(in_UC_DATINV,'Y YYYMMDD'),'Inventory Date is either invalid or null') Inventory_Date is validated only for is_date() But not validated for notisnull() . But error says “ either invalid or null “ why? Whether is_date() also check for not isnull() ? or in this logic something is different ? Please answer me . Advance thanks
