Data type validation

Post by vennam445 »

Hello All,
Is it possible to perform datatype validations in quality stage like date and int field validations?

Thanks,

No. And yes. Because, in version 8, QualityStage and DataStage are the same piece (ignoring licensing) you can use a DataStage Transformer stage to apply IsValid() functions or other techniques to effect data type validation.
