Transformer satge output links

Hello,

I have a rather beginer question. In the transformer stage, if I have 3 output links each with constraint will a row be processed first against link1 and if meets the constraint it will move on to next row or will this same row1 then be checked against link2? I am guessing it will move to next row....

Thanks.

It will be checked against all output link constraints and so could go down any number of them.... including none. :wink:

The row will be checked for all the output links and the order in which output links process a row depends on the link odering.
The initial order of the links is the order in which they are added to the
stage and if you want change the order of output link processing you change from link ordering tab.

If you want to implement something like the C break construct, you can use link variables from prior output links in constraint expressions. The REJECTED variable will be false if the row has been processed by any prior link.

Or you can AND the current link's condition with the logical inverse of prior links' expressions.
