What do you meant by 'BLANK'? Is it Null or Empty String ?

Will your target accept NULL values for that date column, in that case use @NULL in your Transformer derivation.

If you are using any database like oracle then you have to give 'Y' in nullable column in table or view as well as in DS. Otherwise you might get "cannot insert null error".

If this is a parallel job (as marked) then "blank" is not a legal value. Parallel jobs strictly enforce data type compliance.
