Hi

I have found a function OCONV in the expression editor and used the conversion flag as 'MCN'. This has converted my input string from the Execute command activity stage to Integer in the job activity.

Thanks for the valuable time spent to answer the question

Passing integer to a a job activity

Hi I am building a sequence that is used for dimensional load. It contains an Execute command stage with the command Cat and parameters as filepath/file_name.txt. This would give me the maximum surrogate key for a dimension table. I have to Pass this to another job as in integer, so that the downstr...
