It might be the describe failed error.
Please check the presence of the missing column in source as well as target with same metadata

Okay the input link to the SORT stage has processed all the rows but the output link doesnt show any rows processed from a long time, does this mean it is not configured correctly????

You will never get any rows output from a Sort stage until all the input rows have been consumed. This is common sense - it does not know where the final row will be in the sorted order until it has been processed.

Don't confuse my advice about how a properly configured Aggregator will run with what you see in the Sort stage, it must take in everything first. And the Server sort stage is pretty slow, in my experience I found an O/S level sort to be approximately 10x faster. YMMV.

Okay will try to sort at the OS level and check the Processing in Job.
