Hi Shivani,

These kind of issues occur for one of the 2 reasons

1. Invalid Data

2. Invalid Format used in the transformer function.

Pls provide sample input data as you have already provided the derivation.

Hi Venkat,

In the Stage prior to Sequential File Stage there is an option for propogating partition. Set it to CLEAR. The warning should disappear.

Venkat, Do a SEARCH in this forum before you post.

Hi Ray,

The log file needs to generated for both success and failure.
