You may identify record order (1st and 2nd), if you have primary key defined in the table and using surrogate key or sequence number (in increasing order). But order may not be that imporatant as yo...

I have defined the key in CDC and all other columns from source are defined as excluded as value . Why did you define all values as "excluded values" when running 2nd time. Set Change mode as "Explicit Keys, All Values". This should work. "excluded value" will exclude ...

Thanks for the reply

But i have waited for most than 4 hours for it to complete with no success

Hence my question on the limitation of the transformer


Thanks again

You can use a transformer to increment the value. Use initial value, rownum if it is server job, combination of partition number, initial value and rownum to get unique number in parallel job.

Where they can use before and after image of the record(s). with this, they can Identify inserts (new records), deletes (existing record in the target got deleted), updates or changes (changes made to record).
